Xie Xi is in charge of calligraphy and painting restoration, calligraphy and painting restoration studio is on the second floor, push open the door inside a row of shelves against the wall, the shelf compartment is written with the number of calligraphy and painting to be restored, there is a long large table in the middle of the studio, the table is covered with tools, and in the corner are two desks facing each other. There was no one inside.

Xiao Qian said: "There were originally two people in the calligraphy and painting room, Xie Xi and Sun Xinmin. Sun Xinmin resigned half a year ago, leaving only Xie Xi himself. The curator has been recruiting, and a few have come one after another, but none of them have been working for three days. ”

Xin Pet walked into the studio and looked carefully at Xie Xi's workbench and desk, Ye Shichao and Xiao Xie stood at the door face to face, Xiao Xie didn't seem to like Ye Shichao very much, and kept avoiding and not making eye contact with him.

Ye Shichao was speechless, and pointed to his watch: "The watch is good, this brand is quite expensive, right?"

Xiao Qian's expression stiffened, he pulled the sleeve of his coat and covered the watch, "Fake, worthless." ”

Ye Shichao: "The coat is also trendy, do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes, is it illegal?" Xiao Qian didn't look at him angrily.

"Not breaking the law. Ye Shichao shook his head, his gaze moved to the side, and after a while, he moved back, took out a photo of the glyphed skin fossil from his mobile phone, and asked, "Do you recognize this?"

"What?stones?bugs?" Xiao Qian frowned and twisted his head, "I haven't seen it, I don't recognize it." ”

"Oh. Ye Shichao took back his mobile phone and didn't speak again.

The two left the Department of Cultural Relics Restoration, and Xin Pet sighed, "This Xie Xi's desk is just like his person, neat, rigid, and a little boring." Do you believe it? People in this era have no ornaments on their desks that have nothing to do with work, chargers and chargers, and the computers are even more scary-clean, except for documents and archives related to cultural relics, there is not a single game, and even the landlord is not installed. ”

That little money doesn't seem to be the same as him, he likes to drink coffee, wears fashionable and expensive watches, and clothes are also popular this year. Ye Shichao said and glanced at Xin Pet, "Let's go for a walk somewhere else." ”

Today is a working day, but there are still a lot of people in the museum, Xin Pet is understandable, after all, here is the Sanjin City where several important ancient tombs have been discovered, and the people who like the cultural atmosphere are yearning for the museum here.

If it weren't for the investigation of the case, Xin Pet would also like to have a good stroll around the museum, after all, he was accompanied by Ye Shichao, squeezing in the crowd, and going out to eat a barbecue together after squeezing, it can be regarded as an appointment with a humanistic atmosphere, he should like it.

Thinking so, he looked up at Ye Shichao, and sure enough, he was looking in the direction of the exhibition hall, obviously wanting to go in, and there was a slight struggle in his dark eyes, and he finally gave up, "Let's go, go to the personnel department and have a look." ”

In the personnel department, the two looked at the information of Xiaoqian and Xie Xi, the two turned out to be small, they lived in an alley when they were children, their family backgrounds were similar, their parents were factory workers, and looking at the salary, Xiaoqian really couldn't afford his set of clothes.

Back to the cultural relics restoration department, Xiao Qian was smoking in the smoking area, and when he saw the two of them turn back, he showed a hint of panic, snuffed out the cigarette butts, and said impatiently: "Do you have any other questions to ask? ”

Ye Shichao: "Are you a prostitute?"

The panic in Xiao Qian's eyes became more obvious, and he raised his voice, "You're welcome to talk nonsense about me." ”

"Severe dark circles, redness in the eyes, drinking a lot of coffee, and slight shaking of hands when smoking are all signs of severe sleep loss. Ye Shichao said: "But the attendance record of the personnel department, you leave work on time at five o'clock every day." ”

"I ...... Can't I play games?"

Xin Pet took Xiao Qian's hand, "My brother also plays games, and his fingertips are full of calluses, and you usually stay up late to play with senior players, but there are no calluses on your fingers, it's really weird." Playing a game with gloves on?"

Ye Shichao: "Do you say it yourself or let us continue to investigate? These things are not difficult to investigate." ”

Xiao Qian finally couldn't hold back and sat on the ground dejectedly.

Xiao Qian said: "I worked part-time outside to give the owners of those antique shops a palm. That is, to help identify the authenticity of the goods they received. Some of the goods are coming from the right way, and some of the coming from the road is not so right, so every time I pick up the work, it is at night. ”

Ye Shichao: "Did you introduce the life to Xie Xi?"

Xiao Qian had a complicated expression on his face, guilty and full of righteous indignation, "Which wife is Xie Xi marrying? Although Xie Xi's family conditions are average, they have bought a house, and her wife thinks that the house is not big enough and the location is not good enough, which cannot be compared with her little sister's husband. Although Xie Xi's salary is not high, he pays the amount every month, and he keeps a few hundred pocket flowers, her wife is not satisfied, every time she pays her salary, Xie Xi does not seek to improve, and her salary has not risen for so many years, and it is better to sell pancakes and fruits on the street. Xie Xi asked me to drink every time he was depressed, and if he drank too much, he would only scold himself for being useless, so that his wife couldn't hold her head up in front of her little sister. I'm simply ...... Angry. Do you think that woman is sick? Why did Xie Xi marry in the first place? Just refuse, find a rich man, and let Xie Xi live?"

The more Xiao Qian spoke, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but light a cigarette again, "I really couldn't stand Xie Xi's depressed look every day, so I introduced him to work and make money to please the mother-in-law at home." Xie Xi's professional level is very high, his eyes are poisonous, he looks at it accurately, those bosses like him, he took the money home, and his mother-in-law was probably happy, so she bought him a set of more than 2,000 mountaineering outfits for the first time. More than 2,000 mountaineering outfits! Xie Xi was so happy that day that he came to show me off in new clothes. You know what? Xie Xi hadn't laughed so happily since he met that woman. I thought I was helping him, until that Monday, when his wife came to me with the children, saying that Xie Xi had not been home for the weekend, and had not eaten any meals left at home, and asked me if I knew his whereabouts. I thought he was following which boss to pick up the goods, so I didn't care, and asked a few bosses privately, and they all said that I hadn't called Xie Xi recently, so I was a little panicked. You know, what we do is not a job that can be put on the surface, and if we meet outlaws, it is not uncommon to die after we finish it......"

"Why didn't you tell us in the first place?" Xin Pet frowned.

Xiaoqian covered his face and shed tears, "I introduced the job, I'm afraid of responsibility, I'm still young, I'm not married, I can't go to prison." ”

Xin Pet and Ye Shichao glanced at each other, sighed together, and didn't continue to ask.

Xiao Qian listed the names of all the antique dealers Xie Xi had worked with, handed them to Xin Pet, and said with guilt: "These are what I know, maybe I still don't know, this industry is not big, they are all introduced one by one, maybe some bosses think Xie Xi is honest and reliable, and introduce them to other friends." Comrade police, you must investigate carefully. I haven't been able to sleep lately, and I always dream that Xie Xi is coming to me. ”
