Seeing Fang Chao so shocked, Shi Feng had a slight smug look on his face, and said: "Now you know that I didn't lie, right? I and Xiao Yao have been college classmates for 4 years, and it is also a dormitory, a few days ago we went to the grassland to play together, he was inspired to create an oil painting, as my wedding gift, and gave it to me in advance." ”

After a moment of shock, Fang Chao quickly regained his composure, and said loudly: "Professor Xiao gave you such an expensive wedding gift, but you lost it in one night, Professor Xiao's hard work was wasted, and you are so sorry for your friend." ”

Shi Feng had a slightly smug look on his face, and suddenly collapsed, "It is said that the security guards in this community are very conscientious, how do I know that they are water? ”

If there is really an oil painting by Xiao Yao among the lost items, then this theft case can be regarded as a major case, Fang Chao rushed over with so many people under him, but he didn't run in vain.

After making a record and inspecting the scene in detail, Fang Chao and several of his police officers visited Shi Feng's neighbors and other residents in the unit, and the security guards in the community were naturally the focus of the visits. After getting the surveillance video of the past few days in the community, Fang Chao left two of his subordinates to continue the investigation, and he returned to the police station with the others, as well as Shi Feng and Ouyang Wan.

After carefully analyzing the information that has been mastered, Fang Chao has no key suspects for the time being.

"Who were the friends who met at your house yesterday morning? Fang Chao felt that if he had to find a suspect, then those who attended the party yesterday were more suspicious.

Shi Feng's eyes widened, and he asked loudly, "You don't suspect those friends of mine, can you?" I can guarantee that last night's theft had absolutely nothing to do with those friends of mine, they are not that kind of people!"

"There are no absolute things in this world, and there are still people who kill people, and it is not a new thing to get rich for a while. For me, your guarantee has no meaning, since this case is now in my hands, then please believe in my ability and professionalism, what I ask you, please answer truthfully, it is better to be objective, not with subjective emotions. ”

"Well, I respect your professionalism and am willing to believe in your abilities. Then I'll tell you more about their personal situations......"

Of all the friends who attended the party yesterday, Shi Feng did not leave any behind, and gave a detailed account of their personal and family situations.

After listening to Shi Feng's introduction, Fang Chao still couldn't rule out the suspicion of these people, and through the analysis of these situations investigated now, these people who attended the party were obviously more suspicious.

After all, these people have all seen the oil painting that Xiao Yao gave to Shi Feng, and if some of them know the true value of this painting, it is not impossible to make money.

Although the economic conditions of these people's families are good, except for Zeng Miaomiao, they are not rich, and petty theft is unlikely, but in the face of artworks worth more than 100 million, it is difficult to say whether they will be tempted.

After thinking for a moment, Fang Chao said: "For the time being, these friends of yours are all suspects, I need to invite them all over now, and ask them face-to-face, if they can't prove their innocence and rule out their suspicions, then they will be investigated more strictly." It's better for you to make this call, so that they don't have to resist. ”

"Okay, I'll call them right now. Xiao Yao and Zeng Miaomiao don't need to be notified, right? The two of them are definitely not suspicious. ”

"I really don't suspect the two of them, but let them come and maybe get a valuable clue from them. ”

Since this was Fang Chao's request, Shi Feng had to call all the friends who attended yesterday's party and asked them to come over as soon as possible.

After Shi Feng finished calling, he didn't expect Zeng Miaomiao to be the first to rush over, and Zeng Guowen also followed.

Seeing Zeng Guowen's figure, Shi Feng hurriedly stepped forward, "Mr. Zeng, you are so busy with work, why did you come with you? For such a small thing of mine, if you delay your big thing, it will be my sin." ”

"I heard that an oil painting given to you by the president was stolen last night, this is not a trivial matter, the oil painting of the president is casually tens of millions of dollars, and there is no market for it, and there is nowhere to buy it if you want to. It is rare for the president to come to our Qingcheng as a guest, if his paintings can't be recovered, after the matter spreads, with the president's status in the global art world, our Qingcheng's face will soon be lost to the world. Now that I know about this, I can't sit idly by. Zeng Guowen's tone was very solemn.

Fang Chao had heard of Zeng Guowen's name, but he didn't know Zeng Guowen, and after listening to the conversation between the two people, he came to Zeng Guowen and introduced himself: "Hello Mr. Zeng, I am Fang Chao, the leader of the third group of serious cases of the Municipal Bureau, and now I am in charge of this case, I am really sorry to bother you to come over." ”

"Hello Fang Team Leader, I am a good friend of Professor Xiao, his oil paintings are well-known all over the world, as far as I know, more than a dozen world-famous museums want to collect his works, but unfortunately Professor Xiao has always cherished his works, except for the Louvre and the two works of the Han Academy of Fine Arts, those works he created are his own private collection, until now there is no painting to the market.

I say this to let you know how rare and precious Professor Xiao's works are, since this case is in your charge, please be sure to solve it as soon as possible, otherwise, once it spreads to the art world, our Qingcheng's face will really be lost, I say this is definitely not an exaggeration, the matter will only be more serious than I said. Zeng Guowen said such a thing earnestly.

"Thank you Mr. Zeng for the reminder, I will definitely do my best to solve the case as soon as possible. ”

In the face of a big man like Zeng Guowen, Fang Chao's attitude was much more modest, which was completely different from his attitude towards Shi Feng.

After Fang Chao chatted with Zeng Guowen for a few words, he did not rush to ask Zeng Miaomiao to cooperate with the investigation, but temporarily lost his companionship and walked outside the office to make a call to the superior leader.

"Lu Tang, are you back in the office? I just took over a case and need to report back to you in person. ”

"I just finished a meeting, I'm afraid it will take half an hour to go back, so you can tell me anything on the phone. Lu Yeping subconsciously felt that the case that Fang Chao was going to report was probably very serious, and the tone of his speech was very serious.

Fang Chao used the most concise language to briefly introduce the case.

"If it weren't for you, I really didn't know that there were such influential artists in our country, this case involved a huge amount of money, the most important thing is that once it spreads, the impact is very bad, and it should really be taken seriously. It's not that I'm going to put pressure on you, this case really can't be delayed, and the case will be solved within a week, are you sure?" Lu Yeping asked.

"The investigation is not over yet, and it is difficult to say how long it will take to solve the case. I'm feeling pressure now, Zeng Guowen is here, I'm calling you, in addition to reporting the case, I also want to ask you how to treat him?

In addition to Fang Chao's outstanding business ability, he has entered middle age, so he naturally needs to understand a little bit about human affairs. Zeng Guowen is not an ordinary entrepreneur, such a big man, no matter what reason he came to their city, the necessary courtesy must still be there.

"Last month, Mr. Zeng donated a large amount of money to our public security system, for the God of Wealth, of course we can't wait for us, you treat it well, I will rush back immediately. ”

Fang Chao hung up the leader's phone, and after going back, he continued to accompany Zeng Guowen to analyze the case.

It is still very stressful for him to accompany a big man like Zeng Guowen to speak, but fortunately, it is his profession to discuss the case, and he is not afraid of being cold to Zeng Guowen without anything to say.

After Lu Yeping hung up the phone, he rushed back, and returned to Shitangi in less than 20 minutes.

Hurriedly walked into Fang Chao's office, as soon as he entered the door, Lu Yeping said to Zeng Guowen with a warm face: "Welcome to Mr. Zeng to our city orange as a guest, I just went to the hall for a meeting, the hospitality is not good, and please understand Mr. Zeng." ”

"Lu Tang, the two of us are also old friends, don't be polite to me, there will be more opportunities to chat in the future, today I came to accompany my daughter to cooperate with the investigation, what needs to be asked, you are welcome, just ask, Miao Miao and I must know everything." Zeng Guowen really attached great importance to this case, and in a few words, he led the topic to the discussion of the case.

"I still know the righteousness of Mr. Zeng, since this is the case, then I am not welcome. Lu Yeping turned her head to Fang Chao and said, "You find a police officer with a better personality, cooperate with Miss Zeng to do an investigation, and pay attention to your attitude of speaking." ”

After the order, he continued to say to Zeng Guowen: "Fang Chao has simply reported the case to me on the phone just now, and I already have a general understanding of what happened. Judging from my many years of experience in handling cases, there are various indications that this case does not look like an accident, and it is likely that it was committed by an acquaintance. If it is an acquaintance who commits the crime, it is not difficult to detect, and a week should be enough to solve the case. ”

"Lu Tang is confident that he can solve the case as soon as possible, which is what we all want to see. But compared with solving the case sooner or later, it is more important to protect the oil painting from a little damage, and I ask Lu Tang to convey this principle. It's not my request, it's a request. Zeng Guowen said in a sincere tone.

"Mr. Zeng's request is good, and a work of art with depth cannot be measured by money. Professor Xiao is now a banner in our domestic art world, and his works may be national treasures in our country after a few years. The case will be solved, but in this process, our police will definitely do our best to protect Professor Xiao's oil painting from damage. ”

Lu Yeping really thought so in his heart, he would rather solve the case later than not want Xiao Yao's oil painting to be damaged a little bit.

Although the amount of money involved in this case is huge, it is only a theft case, and it is not worthy of the attention of a big orange chief like him. But since he learned about Xiao Yao's status in the domestic and global art world, he can't think so.

Whether the case is serious or not, in addition to the case itself, it is also necessary to take into account the social opinion and social influence of the case.

That is, this case is still unknown to the public, once Xiao Yao's identity is leaked, coupled with the huge influence of Xiao Yao's new work, he can already imagine that the theft case that occurred in Qingcheng will soon be known throughout the country and even the whole world.

This is not a glorious thing, if their Qingcheng is famous for theft, it will really become a huge stain that can never be washed away.

While the two were talking, Xiao Yao finally arrived.

Seeing Xiao Yao enter the door, even Zeng Guowen stood up.

Xiao Yao didn't talk to them politely, and asked directly: "How is the case going?

Shi Feng said: "The case is still under investigation, and there are no valuable clues for the time being. ”

"President, let me introduce to you, this is the chief of the orange Daling Island Luye Pinglu Tangerine. Zeng Guowen came to Xiao Yao's side and introduced.

"Hello Chief Lu, with the attention of you, the eldest chief, I believe that this case will be solved as soon as possible. Xiao Yao didn't expect that Daling Island, a *orange, would also rush over, but he was a little surprised.

What was even more surprising was actually Lu Yeping, although he had heard about Xiao Yao's basic situation from Fang Chao, Xiao Yao's age and the majesty and steadiness on his body that was extremely inconsistent with his age still shocked him.

Originally, it was difficult for him to understand how a young man in his 20s could have made such a big achievement, not only in business, but also in art, which simply subverted the perception of normal people. But after seeing Xiao Yao's true face, he personally experienced his all-round bearing and graceful temperament, and it seemed that his achievements were not so unacceptable.

Xiao Yao had originally planned to leave Qingcheng in the next two days, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen suddenly, I'm afraid he would have to stay in Qingcheng for two more days.

Although Shi Feng is Xiao Yao's college classmate and knows him very well, it is Zeng Guowen who knows Xiao Yao's true skills.

Now that the case has just happened, the police have not found any valuable clues for a while, although the current detection methods are becoming more and more scientific and more advanced, Zeng Guowen still does not believe that Fang Chao can solve the case in a short time.

He didn't question Fang Chao's ability, but he felt that if he wanted to solve the case under the existing circumstances, he might not be able to do it in a short period of time.

If he wants to solve the case as soon as possible, he knows that there is a shortcut, and that is to ask Xiao Yao for help.
