Duke Buckingham did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Isabella and asked, “May I know who this is?”

“A friend of mine.” Isabella quickly introduced him. “He’s very knowledgeable in the field of theft.”

“And there are many very magical things about him.”

“He’s from the mysterious East.”

Duke Buckingham reached out to shake Ye Feng’s hand. “Thank you, friend from the East.”

“Other than myself and a few servants, only my great-grandson, great-granddaughter, and a niece entered and left my residence.”

“Among them, my servants stay in the manor 24 hours a day and do not go anywhere. Moreover, they know my taboos and have never dared to set foot in my study.”

Ye Feng nodded. “In other words, Your Excellency, you mean that the theft of your exclusive Victoria Cross medal has nothing to do with the servants, right?”

“There’s a high chance that it’s unrelated.” Duke Buckingham hesitated for a moment before giving such an answer.

“I’m very sure that it was lost in my study.”

Ye Feng nodded. “Then let’s not consider the servants for now.”

“In the past three days, who has entered and exited Your Excellency’s study?”

“Not many people.” Duke Buckingham shook his head. “The study has always been a place for me to think and learn. There are many treasures of mine here. I’m the only one who sets foot in it usually.”

“Although I’ve been in a relaxed mood these few days as I saw my great-grandson and great-granddaughter. I allowed them and my niece who came to my manor for a vacation to enter and exit the study.”

“But from beginning to end, only me, my great-grandson, my great-granddaughter, and my niece stepped into it.”

As he spoke, he did not wait for Ye Feng to ask, he continued. “I have already asked these three children.”

“They all said that they didn’t take anything from the study.”

“Moreover, these three people are usually exceptionally obedient and well-behaved. I think they won’t lie. That’s why I thought of asking a professional to help take a look…”

Ye Feng did not refute.

He only asked Duke Buckingham more about his great-grandson, great-granddaughter, niece, and servants.

At the same time, he activated the system’s treasure-hunting function and scanned the entire Buckingham Manor. Then, he said, “Duke Buckingham, can you gather your great-grandson, great-granddaughter, niece, and servants so that we can question them?”

“When I came, I observed the security around your manor.”

“Although there are no surveillance cameras in your residence, there are still many surveillance cameras outside your residence.”

“If these surveillance cameras do not detect any abnormalities, and your exclusive Victoria Cross is confirmed to have been stolen, then it can be confirmed that it was an insider’s crime.”

Duke Buckingham was hesitant.

Isabella seemed to have investigated the scene. “I agree with Mr. Ye.”

“I just checked the scene. I didn’t find anything suspicious in the entire study, including the three windows and the surveillance cameras that can monitor these three windows. There’s nothing unusual either.”

“If your out-of-print Victoria Cross was confirmed to have been stolen from the study, then the problem must be with an insider.”

Duke Buckingham finally made up his mind. “Then I’ll call them over.”

Isabella nodded. “You’re not a professional, after all, and you’re close to them. They might hide something when you ask them.”

“But we represent the Royal Secret Service and professional law enforcement officers. The situation is different.”

“Get them over as soon as possible. Let me ask them.”

Duke Buckingham responded and quickly made a few calls.

Soon, a few servants in the manor, as well as Duke Buckingham’s great-grandson, great-granddaughter, and niece, gathered in the living room of Duke Buckingham’s residence.

And at this moment, Ye Feng locked onto his target.

The Duke of Buckingham’s niece.

She was a 16 or 17-year-old girl wearing a Lolita-style uniform. She looked like a harmless little princess.

She was holding the hands of a three or four-year-old boy who was dressed in an extremely expensive suit. He looked a little aggrieved. There was also a little girl who was only six or seven years old and looked like a doll.

When she walked over, she would comfort the little boy from time to time in a gentle voice. At the same time, her actions were especially meticulous.

The gloominess from before was completely gone.

But Ye Feng recognized her immediately.

That face belonged to the girl in the baseball uniform who had sold the exclusive Victoria Cross to John Bull!

When she walked over, the Lolita girl seemed to be in awe of the Duke of Buckingham. She greeted the Duke of Buckingham respectfully and said timidly, “Granduncle, I don’t know why Little William was so afraid when he heard that you wanted to question him.”

“Then, he kept crying.”

“No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t pacify him.”

Duke Buckingham, on the other hand, seemed to like his offspring very much. When he heard her, he immediately smiled warmly at her. “It’s alright, Farry. Just let Granduncle help.”

“You’ve already done very well.”

“Don’t be nervous. Just answer the questions of these two people obediently later.”

The Lolita girl, Farry, nodded timidly.

She carefully brought the aggrieved and tearful Little William to Duke Buckingham and handed him over, then she returned to her original position, looking at Ye Feng and Isabella with a slightly fearful gaze.

Duke Buckingham saw this and immediately said to Isabella and Ye Feng, “This is my niece Farry.”

“This time, she took advantage of the holidays to come to my place for a vacation and accompany this old man.”

“She has always been timid and afraid of strangers. Please don’t take offense.”

“When you ask questions later, please be as gentle as possible. Don’t scare her.”

Isabella quickly nodded.

Ye Feng sneered in his heart.

After Duke Buckingham comforted Little William for a moment, Little William’s emotions gradually calmed down. When Isabella began to ask questions, Ye Feng silently activated the Deep Treasure Guidance again to investigate the situation in Duke Buckingham’s manor.

Isabella was influenced by Duke Buckingham’s words. When she questioned the servants of Duke Buckingham, Little William, Farry, and the others, she spoke softly.

She did not even dare to say anything harsh.

“Think back carefully. Have you ever seen a golden cross medal? It’s about the size of a chicken wing.”

“Pure gold, cross-shaped.”

As expected, Duke Buckingham’s servants, Little William, Farry, and the others all shook their heads.
