Li Rui smiled and said: "Brother, you are really interesting, I thank you, thank you very much, I trouble you." ”

The security guard retrieved the surveillance video from the outside of the guest house again, and according to Li Rui's request, he called up the video of a camera installed at the westernmost end of the outer wall of the front of the building, monitoring the east-facing area, and the camera happened to take pictures of all the areas in the west and east (left and right) of the porch.

This time I finally made a major discovery!

After dark, almost 7:20, ten minutes before Li Rui left the table, suddenly a black shadow fell from the right side of the porch, that area was not directly illuminated by the light, but was mapped to the light in the lobby and the guest room on the first floor, dim and yellow, not very bright, but definitely not dark, you can see that after the black shadow got up, he was about 1.75 meters tall, with short hair, wearing a T-shirt and shorts, and holding a roll-up long column-shaped object in his left hand.

After this person landed and got up, he first looked around, saw that no one was paying attention, walked east along the narrow parking lot in front of the guest house building, which could only accommodate a row of oblique parking spaces, walked out of ten meters and stopped, looked at no one before and after, quickly dodged between the two cars parked on the left, and then opened the left rear door of the car on the east, and soon closed the door again - the reason why the shooting was so clear was because the car was a white car, and when the door was opened and closed, the reflected light was very obvious.

After the man closed the car door, he turned back to the porch, his hand was already empty, needless to say, the roll in his hand had been put in the car, and this was exactly the same as what Li Rui had just woken up.

Li Rui slapped the table and shouted, "Great, I finally found it!"

The second monk of the security guard was puzzled, and said stupidly: "What did you find? You said this person? Did he pick up your key?"

Li Rui smiled and said, "Yes, it's him, I want to trouble you, help me call up the video of this white car driving out of the parking lot, I want to see the license plate number of that car...... A few minutes further back should be able to see, he should have left the room and drove away. ”

The security guard was suspicious, dragged the video playback progress bar, and dragged it for about ten minutes, but did not see the white car leave.

Li Rui was greatly surprised, isn't it, the thief didn't run away after checking out, could he go back to the room to live again? Impossible, how could he have such great courage and such a strong psychological quality? ”

The security guard continued to drag the progress bar until 7:45 a.m., when the car slowly reversed out and drove towards the porch, revealing the license plate on the front of the car.

Li Rui asked the security guard to pause, and tried to zoom in on the screen as much as possible, trying to see the license plate number, but how did he know that the security guard suddenly shouted: "Hey, isn't this the school leader's car?"

Li Rui's heart sank when he heard this, and he shouted: "What did you say? The car of the school leader? Which school leader's car?"

The security guard frowned, tried to think about it, and said, "It should be Assistant Kang's car." ”

"Assistant Kang?!"

Li Rui was taken aback, but he also had a little realization in his heart, the theft of the painting really fell on him among the three suspects, but he didn't expect that he, who always behaved warmly and friendly, would be the mastermind behind the theft of this painting.

Assistant Kang is Kang Chengfu, the assistant to Chi Guohua, president of the Provincial Agricultural University.

Li Rui asked, "Are you sure this is Assistant Kang's car?"

The security guard nodded and said: "Sure, it's not bad, the school leader's car, our security team knows it, okay, who dares not to know? In case of admitting the mistake, isn't it looking for bad luck yourself? Our newly recruited security guard here, the first task is to recognize the school leader's car, this white Toyota Camry, is Assistant Kang's car, and I can memorize the license plate number upside down." ”

Li Rui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, brother, you have a good rest, I'm leaving." With that, he turned around and walked out of the security room.

Standing in the lobby outside, Li Rui was both proud and strange, proud that it was so easy to lock down the mastermind behind the stealing of the painting - even if Kang Chengfu was not the mastermind behind the scenes, he was definitely related to the stealing of the painting; the strange thing is that with the identity and qualifications of Kang Chengfu as the assistant to the president of Agricultural University, a member of the school leadership team, and a deputy department level, as long as he works normally and does not make any mistakes, he can climb higher, and it is not a dream to become the president in the future. Even if this painting is worth 40 million, can 40 million be worth a great future?

Thinking of this, Li Rui sighed, returned to the upstairs room, took out Chi Guohua's business card from the briefcase, found the mobile phone number on it and dialed it.

He didn't have Kang Chengfu's contact information, so if he wanted to find Kang Chengfu, he had to go through Chi Guohua, the principal.

The phone rang twice and was answered, and Chi Guohua's lazy voice sounded on the other end: "Which one?"

Li Rui said: "Hello Principal Chi, I am Li Rui Xiao Li from Qingyang." ”

Chi Guohua was obviously stunned, and after almost five seconds, he asked, "You called me, did you find out the identity of the female painter?"

Li Rui said: "Not yet, I can't help you inquire until I return to Qingyang, I am looking for you this time to ask you for the contact information of Assistant Kang, I have something to do with him." ”

If it was usual, someone dared to ask Chi Guohua, the principal of the main hall, for the mobile phone number of his subordinates, even if Chi Guohua would not be angry, he would hang up the phone directly, but it was Li Rui who did such a stupid thing today, Chi Guohua had some friendship with him before and after the gift of paintings, and he also appreciated his honesty and persistence, so he also gave him a good face and sent him a text message with Kang Chengfu's mobile phone number.

After Li Rui got Kang Chengfu's mobile phone number, he called him as soon as possible, lest he be in a hurry to sell the stolen goods and cause more twists and turns.

"Hey, who's that?"

Kang Chengfu's voice appeared calm and powerful on the phone, and he had the demeanor of a school leader.

Li Rui smiled: "Hello Assistant Kang, I'm Li Rui from Qingyang." ”

Kang Chengfu was slightly surprised: "Li Division, you haven't rested yet, I don't know it's so late, what's the matter with me?"

Li Rui smiled: "I have thought about it, and I agree to sell my painting to Professor Liu Shiqi Liu, please come over Assistant Kang and introduce me to Professor Liu, I want to sell it tonight, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

Kang Chengfu was stunned and couldn't say anything for a while.

Li Ruier listened to the silence on the other side, and secretly sneered in his heart, this guy was probably wondering, "Your paintings have already been taken away by me by car, what else are you going to sell to Liu Shiqi? Don't you know that your painting box is just an empty box?", hehe, he really wants to think so, he just wants to make him think like this, urging: "How about it, Assistant Kang, do me this favor, after I sell it, I will definitely not trouble you in vain, and I will have the heart to offer." ”

Kang Chengfu said: "It's no problem to help, but Professor Liu went to bed early, I'm afraid he has already rested, so I'll call him and ask, if he has already slept, I can't help it, I can only talk about it another day." ”

Li Rui secretly thought, since he laid this foreshadowing, then he will definitely not be able to invite Liu Shiqi tonight, of course, he must not let Liu Shiqi show up, otherwise he will find out that the painting was stolen, it seems that what he said just now really made him think that he didn't know that the painting was stolen, haha, I didn't expect him to be so easy to deceive, and smiled:" You don't have to ask Professor Liu, I still trust your assistant Kang very much, so if you come to the guest house, I will hand over the painting to you first, and you will keep it for me, and then go back and make a deal with Professor Liu on my behalf, okay?"

Kang Chengfu seemed to hear something from these words, and fell silent again.

Li Rui smiled and asked: "Why don't you tell me where you are, and I'll go to you with the painting, in short, I have to see you, otherwise it's hard to talk about the painting." ”

Kang Chengfu said in a dry tone: "Why do you have to see me? Let me tell you, there is no hurry to sell paintings, after all, it depends on the buyer's time......

Li Rui intercepted: "I've already said it, if I don't see you, it's hard to talk about painting." ”

Seeing that he insisted, Kang Chengfu became a little impatient, and asked coldly: "Director Li, what do you mean by this? What is it difficult to say? Why can't I understand?"

Li Rui sighed: "What is the current situation of my painting, Assistant Kang still doesn't know? I don't mean anything else, I just want to meet and talk to Assistant Kang, I hope Assistant Kang can cherish the opportunity I gave and don't make mistakes!"

Kang Chengfu was instantly enraged and shouted: "Don't make a mistake, Li Chu, are you talking to me? Let me remind you, the reason why I am polite to you is only because you are a guest from afar, but I am not begging you to be afraid of you, I am also one of the leaders of the Agricultural University, how dare you, the junior director of the section, be so rude to me?"

Li Rui sneered: "If you think I'm rude to you, then okay, I won't call you anymore, I'll let the police come to you and let them be rude to you, how about it?"

Kang Chengfu said angrily: "The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, why do you let the police look for me? What do good policemen do with me?"

Li Rui was impatient and said: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, you hurry up and come to me with the painting, then you will have a chance to repent, but if you are obsessed and stubborn to the end, then your workplace and life will be ruined." You also have to think about why I found your head, do you think I will bite indiscriminately without clues and evidence?"

Kang Chengfu said in disbelief: "What clues and evidence? What are you talking about? I don't understand at all." ”

Li Rui said: "Okay, if you don't tell some truth, you won't give up, you sent your subordinates to jump into my room from the window while I was going to the banquet and steal the painting." It's a pity that your subordinate is so stupid that he didn't take it with him after stealing the painting, and even put it in your car, is this your arrangement or his idea?

Kang Chengfu exclaimed: "How is it possible? I completely ...... what you said."
