In the face of Liu Xia's questioning, Hou Shengnan explained: "After they left, I was planning to take the money to buy fertilizer in the town, and my family has a habit of keeping small coins in the cabinet and large bills locked in drawers.

It cost more than 1,000 yuan to buy fertilizer, and there was not enough change in the cabinet, so I opened the drawer to get the money, and there were almost more than 5,000 yuan there, but when the drawer was opened, I saw that there was a mess inside.

It's different from the last time I put things, because it locks valuables, so I checked to see if there was any money in it, and after checking, I found that the cash was a lot of money, but the three Tang Dynasty gold coins in the drawer were missing. ”

"So, it's a coincidence that you found out that the gold was stolen. After muttering to herself, Liu Xia thought about it and continued to ask her: "Just now, Deputy Mayor Huang said that you have been with them and have never left.

In that case, you should be able to see what they are doing, so why do you think they stole the gold coins? You know, only you know where the gold coins are kept, and Deputy Mayor Huang doesn't know that there are gold coins in the drawer. ”

"At that time, when they were drinking water and chatting in the house, they talked about the three gold coins, and the village party secretary stood aside and instigated me to take them out to see and understand, and I was a little dizzy at the instigation of the branch secretary, so I opened the drawer in front of them and took out the gold coins for them to admire.

After a few of them read it, the person surnamed Huang immediately took a look at it, and had to spend money to buy these three gold coins, as soon as I heard this, I quickly locked the gold coins in the drawer, at this time, I went to the toilet, there were only a few of them in the house, they must have stolen the gold coins at that time. ”

Although Deputy Mayor Huang liked the three gold coins very much, it was impossible for him to steal them in front of several colleagues, and besides, even if some of them were greedy, they would not be able to steal immediately, because it was too late. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Xia added: "There is another point, they are all people with some status, and it is impossible to steal gold coins in front of your village cadres." Therefore, the likelihood of them joining forces to commit the crime is extremely small, too small to exist. ”

"If it wasn't stolen by a few of them, then who could have stolen it? The gold coin can't run away on its own feet, right?" retorted, Hou Shengnan pointed at Deputy Mayor Huang and said, "In my opinion, the gold coin must have been stolen by their gang." ”

Although Hou Shengnan insisted on this statement, Liu Xia denied this line, he knew that Deputy Mayor Huang and the others did not steal the gold coins, and the real thieves must be someone else, but Liu Xia had something but couldn't figure it out, how did the other party steal the gold coins unknowingly?

Liu Xia asked for a key from Hou Shengnan, and then he put on a pair of rubber gloves and personally opened the copper lock on the drawer, only to see some hundred-yuan bills in the drawer, in addition, there are housestead certificates, land contract certificates, household registration books, marriage certificates, and other important documents.

Then, Liu Xia picked up the copper lock and observed it repeatedly. The lock cylinder was intact, the lock surface was smooth, and there were no traces of damage around him, and then, Liu Xia squatted down, got under the table of the Eight Immortals, and tried to use his hands to dig something out of the gap behind the drawer, but the gap was extremely narrow, and his fingers couldn't reach into it at all.

Standing up and looking at the copper lock in his hand, Liu Xia whispered softly: "Strange, how did the other party steal the gold coins?"
