Chapter 593: Who's the Thief?
Mori Tomoya even used the word "thief", causing an uproar among the guests, and everyone had an angry expression. Hirogen Ichiro even scolded him repeatedly, blaming Mao Lizhi for not talking nonsense, and asked him to apologize to everyone immediately.
Only Xiao Ping, who couldn't understand Japanese, was still a little confused, and he didn't know what Mao Li Zhi also said, which could make everyone so angry.
Just when Xiao Ping was inexplicable, Mao Lizhi had already begun to make trouble, and pointed directly at him and said, "I think the thief is this person!"
Everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Ping with Maori Tomoya's finger. Two of Mori Tomoya's subordinates had quietly approached Xiao Ping, lest the thief who stole the god's bones suddenly escape.
Even if Xiao Ping didn't understand Japanese, he understood what Mori Tomoya meant at this time. He sneered expressionlessly, walked directly in front of everyone and said loudly in English: "Mr. Mori Tomoya, what can you say in front of me, don't you even have the courage to confront me face to face?"
Now that he has torn his face, of course Mao Lizhi will not have any scruples, and also changed to English: "I don't mind repeating what I just said again, you are the thief who stole the bones!"
Hearing Mao Li Zhiya's words, which had almost lost his mind, Xiao Ping couldn't help but laugh and said: "Who do you think you are, judge? Who do you say is a thief and who is a thief? I also said that you are guarding and stealing, and you are reluctant to give the divine bone to Mr. Guangyuan for a temporary change!"
"You're talking nonsense!" Mori Tomoya immediately denied.
"That's enough!" Hirogen Ichiro next to him couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Mori Tomoya in a deep voice: "If you want to accuse Mr. Xiao, you must have enough evidence." Otherwise, don't talk about it!"
Although Hirogen Ichiro's words were ostensibly said to Mori Tomoya, it was also a subtle reminder to Xiao Ping. If you want to prove your innocence, you have to show evidence.
Of course, Xiao Ping understood what Guangyuan Ichiro meant, and immediately said loudly: "In order to prove my innocence." I'm willing to take any check!"
As soon as Xiao Ping said this, the people who were originally suspicious of him were also a little shaken. Under the witness of the two guests, Xiao Ping took off his underwear in a room, proving that he did not hide the divine bones on his body.
At the same time, Hirogen Ichiro's subordinates were also divided into two groups, one group carefully inspected the side hall used for prayer to see if the divine bones were hidden here, and the other group carefully checked the surveillance video in the main hall to see if someone had secretly sent the divine bones out of the main hall after praying.
Of course, neither group found anything. There was no place to hide the bones of the gods in the side hall, and the guests never left the main hall after praying. There is no chance to transfer the divine bones out of the body.
As for Xiao Ping, who was heavily accused by Mao Li Zhiya, he has been staying in the monitoring range of the probe. It can be clearly seen from the picture that not only has he never left the main hall, but he has not even had contact with anyone else, and he is definitely the least suspicious of all the guests.
"This ...... This is impossible!" After knowing the result, Mao Lizhi also muttered to himself in despair: "The divine bone was obviously stolen by this person, how can there be no evidence at all?!"
Xiao Ping didn't have the slightest sympathy for Mao Lizhi, and interrupted him coldly: "Mr. Mao Li, although I know you very well. But if you talk nonsense like this, I will sue you for slander!"
Hearing Xiao Ping's unhappy tone, Guangyuan Ichiro hurriedly greeted him: "Mr. Xiao, Maori has just lost his family heirloom. It is inevitable that some emotions will be out of control, and you must not take his nonsense to heart. ”
At the moment, Xiao Ping is already one of the most important partners of Koshita Co., Ltd., when it is not necessary. Hirogen Ichiro didn't want to offend him either. The loss of the divine bone is of course a huge loss, and it is even less worth it if it loses Xiao Ping's partner because of this.
Xiao Ping still gives Ichiro Guangyuan a lot of face. Wen Yan smiled slightly and said, "Since Mr. Guangyuan has spoken, then I don't care about him in general." There's one thing I'd like to warn you about, though. There's an old Chinese saying that 'a thief shouts to catch a thief', and I think it's a true portrayal of the current situation!"
Xiao Ping's words shocked Hirogen Ichiro, and he couldn't help but look at Mori Tomoya next to him. At the moment, all the evidence tends to show that Xiao Ping and the other guests are innocent, and Hirogen Ichiro certainly knows that this thing must not have been done by himself, so the most suspicious thing is naturally Mori Tomoya.
Mori is also aware of all the security measures in the road, so he can naturally avoid surveillance. At the same time, only he can go and go freely, without attracting the attention of others, and it is very convenient to transfer the divine bones out of the body.
Xiao Ping's words were like pushing open a window, allowing Ichiro Hirogen to look at the matter from another angle. The more Ichiro Hirogen was suspicious by nature, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Mori was also suspicious, and felt that it was very likely that it was really him who was a thief and called a thief to catch a thief.
Seeing Ichiro Hirogen's expression, Mori knew that President Michi was doubting himself. This made him hate Xiao Ping even more, and he lost his mind for a while.
"You framed me!" Mori Tomoya roared and threw himself at Xiao Ping, trying to tear this guy who ruined his good deeds to shreds.
However, in his anger, Mao Li also forgot that he was not Xiao Ping's opponent at all. Although his posture of pounced on Xiao Ping was menacing, as if he was unstoppable. But Xiao Ping just casually pulled and pushed, which made Mao Lizhi lose his balance and involuntarily rushed to the table in the magnified hall.
With a "bang", the table was knocked down by Mori Tomoya, and the box on it also fell to the ground, and everything in the box fell to the ground. Aside from those off-white powders, there was one thing that caught everyone's attention.
"What is this?" Xiao Ping was the first to pick up the thing and look at it carefully, and soon his face couldn't help but change.
It's a flickering gadget, one side full of delicate electronics, the other side has a smooth surface that gleaming silver, and two extremely thin metal wires extending outward, looking like a high-sensitivity antenna.
Even if Xiao Ping was not a professional, he could guess what it was, and immediately said loudly: "Bugging?!"
The other guests also saw the gadgets in Xiao Ping's hand clearly, and they all changed color.
You must know that everyone in the road has prayed to this small box, and it is inevitable that some people will say a few words from their hearts. If you pray alone, there is no problem, but if there is a bug in the box, the nature of the matter changes.
A few guests may have said something that should not be said to the god bones, and at this time, their faces were full of anger, and they surrounded Hirogen Ichiro and reprimanded them loudly. Although the other guests did not reveal their secrets, they were also very unhappy and protested loudly against this despicable act.
The hall quickly became a mess, and the solemn atmosphere before was completely lost.
"Guangyuan, you have to give an explanation for this!"
"I'm still wondering how these people could be so kind and let me pray to the god bones alone, it turned out to be this idea!"
"It's just, it's too insidious!"
"Delete the eavesdropping recording!"
The guests were pushing and shoving Ichiro Guangyuan, and at the same time expressing their opinions, the hall was already in chaos.
In the eyes of everyone, this incident is obviously a conspiracy jointly planned by Ichiro Hirogen and Tomoya Mori. Among them, Ichiro Hirogen is naturally the mastermind, so everyone's condemnation is also directed at him.
Xiao Ping, who was mixed in the crowd, also protested a few words with the crowd, and at the same time secretly shouted in his heart to be happy. This bugging device looks very sophisticated, and maybe it also has the function of tracking and locating. Fortunately, he chose to let the demon refining pot devour the divine bone in situ, if he really took the divine bone directly, I am afraid that he would have been stolen by Maori Tomoya at this time.
However, Xiao Ping had to admit that Mao Lizhi actually thought of installing a tracking bug in the god's bones, which was indeed enough to comment on "bold and careful". But now that the matter has been exposed, Maori Zhi is tantamount to throwing stones into the pit - arousing public indignation.
While Xiao Ping was secretly rejoicing, the emotions of the guests had become more excited. Ichiro Hirogen and Mori Tomo were also surrounded by them, and the two sides even began to have physical contact.
Hirogen Ichiro in the crowd was pushed around, but he couldn't say anything about the bitterness in his heart. In his heart, he really didn't know anything about it, and it was all Mori Tomoya's ghost. But in the current situation, no one will believe it.
Thinking of this, Hirogen Ichiro glanced at Mori Tomoya beside him viciously, and he wanted to break him into pieces.
Hirogen Ichiro's thoughts were different from others, he didn't think that Mori Tomoya put a bug in the box containing the god bones to deal with other guests, this was obviously aimed at Hirogen Ichiro himself. Thinking that Tomoya Mori might be in control of his every move in the future, Hirogen Ichiro shuddered.
From this point of view, Hirogen Ichiro even felt fortunate that there was an accident at the transfer ceremony. If it hadn't happened to him, he would have happily taken the bugging home by now. As for where the divine bones went, and why there was only a pile of gray-white powder left in the box, these things were no longer important to Ichiro Guangyuan. The most important thing at the moment is to calm the emotions of the guests, so as not to become a street rat that everyone shouts at.
After Ichiro Hirogen ordered his subordinates to destroy the monitoring equipment in front of everyone, the mood of the guests finally calmed down. Hirogen Ichiro then tried his best to explain to the guests that this was a decision made by Tomoya Mori on his own initiative, and that it had nothing to do with Koshita Co., Ltd. and Hirogen Ichiro.
Although some guests are still skeptical, there is nothing they can do. Hirogen Ichiro solemnly apologized to everyone and promised to give everyone a satisfactory result.
Under the repeated assurances of Ichiro Hirogen, the guests reluctantly said that they would not care about this matter anymore. They left the temple one after another, and none of them would look good at Ichiro Hirogen.
The transfer ceremony, which has turned into a farce, finally came to an end with Ichiro Hirogen's apology. (To be continued......)
