After Xia Guowei introduced Tang Xin, he said "hard work" to him, and without saying anything more, he left the cultural relics inspection team and went home.

Xie Benhang invited Tang Xin to sit down, made him a cup of tea with a disposable paper cup, and asked casually: "Xiao Tang, which university did you graduate from?

In his mind, Tang Xin was recommended by Director Xia to help solve the case, and he was so young, so he was likely to be a top student at a prestigious university, and he was more knowledgeable in archaeology or antique identification, so Director Xia valued him so much.

Unexpectedly, Tang Xin smiled slightly and replied, "Captain Xie, I'm sorry, I dropped out of school in the second grade of primary school and didn't have a chance to go to college." ”

Xie Benhang looked at him with a surprised gaze, and seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, he asked again: "Director Xia called me just now and said that you have special skills in antique identification, so where did you learn the knowledge of antique identification?"

"Since I was 16 years old, I have been working in an antique shop in Hengjiang Antique Street, and I have learned some skills and knowledge to identify antique calligraphy and paintings from my master. However, a few days ago, I was swept out of the house by my master because I bought a fake at a high price. ”

Although Tang Xin is easy-going, humble and kind-hearted, he is actually relatively high-spirited. He saw it just now: when Xia Guowei introduced himself, Xie Benhang and the others showed disapproving looks on their faces, and the applause was also coping, obviously looking down on him as a young student.

Therefore, when Xie Benhang asked about his academic qualifications, he simply said that he had not graduated from primary school and was still a primary school apprentice who was swept away by his master because he bought fakes, and wanted to see how Xie Benhang and others reacted......

As expected, as soon as his words came out, Xie Benhang and the others glanced at each other, and the expression of disappointment and contempt on their faces couldn't be concealed.

Tang Xin felt a little funny in his heart, knowing that they must have a lot to say at the moment, but because he was not good at speaking, he excused himself to go to the toilet and temporarily left the conference room.

As soon as he went out, a deputy captain shouted: "Team Xie, what does Boss Xia mean by this, don't you want to be joking with us to recommend such a hairy guy to help us solve the case?"

"Yes, at first I thought he was a graduate or doctoral student in archaeology at a prestigious university, and he had a special talent in archaeology, and he could point us to the value of cultural relics and the places where the stolen goods might be stolen, but I didn't expect him to be just an apprentice working in the antique street, and he was kicked out of the store by his master, what can he do for us?

Xie Benhang was also puzzled, holding the teacup and thinking for a long time, he said slowly: "I am also very confused about the boss's intention to do this. However, I listened to Xiao Tang's accent just now, and it seemed to be from Hunan Province. As far as I know, the boss's lover, Sister Liao, is also from Hunan Province. So I guessed that Xiao Tang might be a close relative of Sister Liao, because he was kicked out of the store by the master, so he came to join Sister Liao. The boss may want to recruit him into the public security system, so he will follow us for an internship. I can't think of any other reason for my boss to do that. ”

A vice-captain nodded and said, "I think Team Xie has a reasonable analysis." Not long after the establishment of our cultural relics inspection brigade, there are still several business establishments that have not been recruited. It just so happened that Xiao Tang had worked in a cultural relics and antique shop, and if he was recruited into our team, it would be regarded as a professional counterpart, so we arranged for him to come to our team for an internship in advance. ”

Several other deputy captains and squadron leaders also felt that Xie Benhang's analysis was reasonable, and they couldn't stop nodding.

Xie Benhang glanced at the door, and saw that Tang Xin hadn't come back yet, so he told everyone: "Xiao Tang was brought here by the boss personally, no matter what his purpose is, we have to be polite to him on the surface." However, because the case we are handling now is too important, and Xiao Tang is an outsider and has no concept of confidentiality, so we should not tell him too much about the case, nor can we tell him the clues and physical evidence we have found, so as not to leak secrets. ”

After Tang Xin returned to the conference room, he saw that everyone was concentrating on reading some materials, so he smiled and said to Xie Benhang: "Captain Xie, Director Xia arranged for me to assist everyone in solving the case, can you please introduce me to the specific facts of this tomb robbery case?"

Xie Benhang smiled and said to a deputy captain: "**, you can introduce the case to Xiao Tang!"

** nodded and said, "This case happened half a month ago. At that time, a villager from Xiaolizhuang went to our inspection team to report that the tomb of the Tang Dynasty county lord in the east of their village had been stolen at night. Our team contacted the Hengjiang Municipal Bureau of Cultural Relics and asked them to send experts to follow me to the site for exploration.

"After on-the-spot investigation, the tomb robbery gang drilled a hole from the west side of the county lord's tomb and entered the tomb chamber and looted the burial goods in the coffin. They not only stole the gold, silver, jewelry, porcelain and terracotta figurines and other valuable cultural relics inside, but also scraped away the pastel murals on both sides of the tomb.

What is even more infuriating is that these bold tomb robbers also dismantled and carried the 27-ton stone coffin out of the tomb and disappeared. This stone coffin has a very significant archaeological value, if not recovered in time, its loss is immeasurable. ”

After listening to him intently, Tang Xin asked again: "May I ask how far this case has progressed? Are there any specific clues about the suspect?"

Xie Benhang listened to his old-fashioned inquiring tone, as if the superior leader was inspecting and guiding the work, and his heart was even more uncomfortable, and he replied expressionlessly: "Xiao Tang, our case has not made much progress, and we have not found specific clues about the suspect. If you really have special skills, please help us find a few clues to solve the case!"

Tang Xin heard that his tone was a little impatient, and there was a bit of mockery, so he smiled and said, "Captain Xie, I can give you clues, but I want to ask you to provide me with some items related to the case." For example, Director Xia told me just now that you have confiscated three Tang San painted pottery figurines from two cultural relics dealers, and these terracotta figurines were stolen from the tomb of the county lord. If you can show me these terracotta figurines, maybe I can give you some clues to solve the case. ”

Xie Benhang shook his head and said: "I'm really sorry, those three Tang San painted pottery figurines were numbered and stored in the evidence room, and the policeman in charge of keeping the evidence is not in the team at the moment, and I can't take it out." ”

In fact, the person who kept the evidence was in the conference room. But Xie Benhang had lost interest in Tang Xin, so he lied casually, in fact, he didn't want him to see those terracotta figurines.

Tang Xin guessed his thoughts, stood up and said, "That being the case, then it doesn't make much sense for me to be here, I'll leave first!"

Xie Benhang did not pretend to keep him, and said lightly: "Xiao Tang is good to go, we still have to continue to study the case, so I won't send you." ”

After Tang Xin left the cultural relics inspection team, he went straight back to Su Mingxuan's shop on the antique street, and did not call Xia Guowei again.
