The case went surprisingly smoothly.

After I took them to the main jade store in the Panjiayuan thrift market, the boss thought I was here to get the goods, and immediately took out the white jade wash, as a result, Yan Wanru recognized at a glance that it was her stolen things, under the inquiry of Captain Zhou and several criminal policemen handling the case, the boss explained in detail the origin of the white jade wash, which was sold to him by a tall man yesterday afternoon, and Captain Zhou showed him a photo of Qian Jianguo, and the boss immediately nodded and identified the person.

Back in Shichahai, the police took Qian Jianguo back to the bureau for interrogation, and also found a pryed safe under his bed.

Under the pressure of multiple evidence, within ten minutes, Qian Jianguo confessed to the facts of the crime, that night, on the way back, he saw the sneaky two Henan people and the safe in their hands, originally wanted to call the police, but when he went upstairs to make a call, he saw that the door of Yan Wanru's house was open with a gap, and when he opened it, there was no one in the house.

The case came to light, the stolen goods and stolen money were all recovered, and Deputy Captain Zhou was also praised by the leaders of the Municipal Bureau.

At half past four in the afternoon, Beiyuan Homestead.

"Today I'm going to cook and cook a good meal for everyone." Yan Wanru's expression looked very happy, but the deep tiredness in her eyes was still captured by me, I knew that Sister Yan was too kind and trusted everyone around her, and Qian Jianguo should have a good relationship with her, so hearing that he took another safe, Yan Wanru was inevitably a little uncomfortable and a little guilty.

Feizi took the initiative to ask: "Teacher, I'll do it for you." ”

Tiezi said: "I will also help." ”

Yan Wanru shook her head with a smile: "No, you can watch TV with Xiaojing for a while, my mother and Lianlian will come back." ”

When Yan Wanru entered the kitchen, only me and Feizi Tiezi were left in the living room. Feizi has always had some inexplicable hostility towards me, and this hostility became more serious after I helped the police solve the case, so I naturally couldn't talk to him, but I could talk a few words with Tiezi, a simple young man.

Ringing ring, my phone rang, put down the teacup, I walked to the windowsill to take a look, and it was Yuan Yazhen's.

“…… Sister, I was about to call you, I was at my friend's house, and I won't go back to eat at night. ”

"Hmm."

"Looking for me?"

"My dad and my mom come to Cow Street at night."

I thought about it, and probably understood what she meant, and said, "Then I won't go back for the next two days, just go to the school to have a look, and our homeroom teacher called me that day." ”

“…… Well. ”

Yuan's father and Yuan's mother are estimated not to live in Niujie, the reason why I don't go back is mainly because I am afraid that they will misunderstand, although the house is temporarily lent to her, but Yuan Yazhen is an orphan and widow, it is really not suitable for me to always run to others, it is inevitable that people will have other opinions, since Yuan's father and Yuan's mother are ready to go, of course I still avoid it.

During the meal, Yan Wanru briefly told Grandma Bao and Lianlian about the day's events.

Lian Lian screamed: "Wow! Brother Jing, you are too powerful! ”

Grandma Bao, who was sitting next to me, also patted my hand lovingly, "I'm sorry for you again." ”

"No, it should." I said.

Yan Wanru smiled and touched the back of my head: "I am really convinced of Xiaojing's luck, Yanjing's cultural relics market is not big or small, but I can just find the white jade I lost when I go out for a walk, which is really ...... It's really ...... "It may be a difficult thing for them, but I've read relevant news reports in my previous life, and if I can't find Bai Yuxi, I'll just die."

"Don't talk about it." Yan Wanru raised her glass: "I have worked hard for everyone today, I will toast everyone with tea instead of wine." ”

Ding ding ding, after touching the cup, Grandma Bao said: "When will the Xuande furnace and the white jade wash be brought back?" The autumn auction is almost over, aren't you still waiting for the auction? The money for Hope Elementary School ......"

Yan Wanru sandwiched the dishes between a few of us and said: "I know, I asked Captain Zhou in the afternoon, and he has already reacted to the above, I heard that I can go to the police station tomorrow to get something, oh yes, Xiaojing, Feizi, Tiezi, you come with me when you go to the city bureau tomorrow, in addition to Xiaojing can have a cash reward of 100,000 yuan, I will also fight for a reward of 10,000 yuan for the two of you, if it goes well, you should be able to get the money by signing tomorrow." ”

Tiezi sighed, "I didn't help Feizi with anything?" ”

Feizi's eyes flashed with joy, it seemed that 10,000 yuan was not a small amount for him.

Yan Wanru said: "You went to the Panjiayuan together to find Bai Yuxi, and you have all the credit." ”

"Wow! Lakh? I only heard Lianlian laugh evilly twice, approached me, and kicked my shoe: "Brother Jing, I want to change my mobile phone, okay." ”

Yan Wanru nodded her forehead angrily: "You, you will blackmail your brother Jing." ”

When Lian Lian heard this, she hugged her mother's hand and shook it: "Mom, then you buy it for me, I know you are the best." ”

Yan Wanru was stunned by the shaking, "...... Okay, okay, don't make a fuss, can't you buy it? ”

Lianlian cheered, hugged her mother's face and sighed: "Mom, I love you!" ”

Yan Wanru also kissed her head dotingly: "Mom loves you too." ”

"You're used to her! How can I change my mobile phone in the first half of the year? Grandma Bao frowned unhappily, but said nothing. After eating, she took my arm and led me to her bedroom: "You talk, let Xiaojing play chess with me, by the way, won't you leave today?" Stay here for the night. ”

"......I'm going back to school."

Grandma Bao couldn't help but say, "It's so decided, stay for two days." ”

Yan Wanru smiled at me and said, "My mother has been thinking about you for the past two weeks, stay here, I will sleep in the same room with Lianlian at night." ”

"Uh, that's fine, excuse me."

Since saving Yan Wanru's life, I am very popular in her house, Grandma Bao often likes to pull me to play chess, Yan Wanru likes to drag me to listen to her play the piano and blow the flute, of course, the happiest is Lianlian, this girl, because someone has helped her with her homework, and with me, Grandma Bao seems to be no longer so harsh on her.

Early the next morning.

Yan Wanru answered Captain Zhou's call and asked us to come over, and Lianlian didn't shout to go with us because the school teachers had a meeting and had a day off. After arriving at Qianmen East Street, Feizi and Tiezi were already waiting for us at the gate of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, chatting a few words, Yan Wanru called Captain Zhou's mobile phone, and after a while, someone inside took us into the office building, and after sitting down in a small lounge, the staff gave us a few cups of pure water with a paper cup surnamed Shi, let us wait first, and took Yan Wanru to go through the formalities first.

Inside the lounge.

Lian Lian jumped around and observed, then jumped on the desk and sat down, her legs swinging back and forth, "Feizi, what are you going to do with that 10,000 yuan?" "In addition to calling me brother very politely, Lianlian also calls Feizi and Tiezi by their first names or calls them nicknames like their mother.

Feizi looked at me and said, "I'm going to collect a piece of jade, and I'll send her when the teacher is ready." ”

Lian Lian pursed her small mouth and squinted at Tiezi: "What do you want to do with those ten thousand?" ”

may be related to the Public Security Bureau, Tiezi is a little restrained: "I'm going to give the money to my mother." ”

Lian Lian cut off: "I won't rob you of your money, look at you two ......" jumped off the table, Lian Lian ran over, sat down beside me, and laughed: "Brother Jing, I know you are more generous than them, okay, sell me a set of cosmetics?" I fancy a brand, but it's too expensive, more than 10,000 yuan. ”

I shook my head without thinking: "How old are you, what do you want cosmetics for?" Grandma Bao still doesn't count me when she knows? ”

Lianlian's mouth pursed: "Stingy ghost!" ”

I looked at her helplessly, "Let's buy you clothes, about 10,000 yuan, okay?" ”

When Lian Lian heard this, she immediately chuckled, and danced with her hands: "Thank you, Brother Jing, oh, there are new clothes." ”

The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, "Hehe, what's wrong?" What's the joy? "It's Captain Zhou.

Feizi Tiezi and I both stood up, "Team Zhou." ”

Captain Zhou is about to be promoted, and he is in a very good mood, so he specially greeted me a few words, "Gu Jing, you can solve the case so quickly this time, you have made great contributions, haha, even the director asked Teacher Yan if you have any plans to become a criminal police officer after graduation, well, come with me, Teacher Yan's procedures are almost completed, this is back, I will take you to receive the bonus." ”

As soon as she heard the word bonus, Lianlian's eyes lit up.

Feizi said, "Thank you, Team Zhou." ”

Captain Zhou waved his hand and led us outside, across the corridor, just to see Yan Wanru and two people in police uniforms coming over, seeing us, Yan Wanru smiled and said, "The formalities are finished, what about yours?" ”

Captain Zhou was still more polite to Yan Wanru, "I'm about to take them to receive the bonus." ”

I blinked my eyes, took advantage of their words, turned a corner, and slipped into a corridor diagonally opposite, only to hear Captain Zhou behind me say, "Eh, Gu Jing, it's not over there." ”

I stopped and pointed to a painting on the wall at the end of the hallway, "It's beautiful." ”

Yan Wanru and they all followed, looking in the direction of my finger, it was a king-size landscape painting, as for how big, well, almost the size of the big curtain of Sister Yan's house, about two meters long, one meter wide, twice the size of an ordinary picture scroll and surplus, in the middle of the two arms-thick painting scrolls, there is a rolling mountain, with clouds and fog above, trees and rivers below, which is very magnificent.

Yan Wanru nodded lightly: "It's good, it's quite meaningful." ”

Feizi interjected inappropriately: "It's a modern craft, right?" And it seems to be machine-printed, not hand-painted. "I don't need him to say that I also know that the ancient paintings are not so large, and the traces on the paper are obviously mass-produced by computer drawings, even if the paintings are good, the price is not high, at most 1,2000 is the end, and the cost price, I estimate that it will be a few hundred yuan.

Captain Zhou smiled: "What? Fancy it? ”

I nodded my head slightly.

"This painting didn't cost a lot of money, well, the antique market may not have it, if you like it, go to the mall and ask, I seemed to see such a large-size painting when I visited Xidan Mall last time, about a thousand or more." Captain Zhou said, "The hall in the bureau is high, and it is really good to hang it on the wall, but if the living room at home is too small, the effect will not be good." ”

Lian Lian pulled my sleeve impatiently: "Let's go, go get the bonus, and buy me clothes in the afternoon." ”

Captain Zhou smiled: "Yes, let's go." ”

"Ahem, what's the ......" I coughed, and waited for everyone to turn their heads to look at me before saying, "Actually, I didn't do anything, and I should be able to help Sister Yan, so I don't want the bonus, right?" ”

Captain Zhou was stunned, "How could you not contribute?" Most of the credit for solving the case this time is yours. ”

I touched my nose embarrassedly: "I really don't want it, uh, if you can, can you give me this painting?" ”

"How's that going to work?" Captain Zhou shook his head again and again and said, "The money has been applied for you, how much is that painting worth?" ”

Hearing this, Lianlian hurriedly dragged me: "Stupid to death!" What's polite at this time? With those 100,000 yuan, you can buy 100 of these paintings! ”

Yan Wanru's inquiring gaze also came.

I smiled bitterly and said: "I'm not polite, I really like this painting, well, why don't you look at it like this, Team Zhou, you tell the leaders of the bureau to see if this painting can be given to me, as for the 100,000 yuan, just transfer it directly to the financial office of the bureau, I don't want any of it." ”

Lian Lian exclaimed, "Oh, I'm so angry!" ”

Feizi and Tetsuko looked at me in amazement, probably not understanding what I meant.

"This ......" Captain Zhou looked at Yan Wanru hesitantly: "Teacher Yan, what do you say this ......?"

I hurriedly gave Sister Yan a look, and said in my heart that I am polite, compared with this landscape painting, the 100,000 yuan is a fart!

Yan Wanru shook her head angrily and funny, thought about it, and said to Captain Zhou: "He is too polite, he may have me in it, he is embarrassed to take this money, well, just do it according to his wishes, you are tired to say hello to the bureau, see if this painting can be given to us?" Trouble. ”

"That'...... Okay, I'll ask the Director for some advice. Captain Zhou patted me on the shoulder approvingly, as if praising me for my high style and brightness, which made me embarrassed.

After Captain Zhou left, Lian Lian pouted angrily and muttered to herself, "What kind of garlic do you charge?" That's 100,000! Don't you give it to me, okay? How many clothes can I buy? Hum! ”

Feizi looked at me with a slight hint of ridicule, and said in a very small voice: "Slap the swollen face and make the fat man." ”

When Tiezi heard this, he stabbed his brother in the arm.

I pretended not to hear them, held back my excitement, and rubbed my hands together while waiting for Captain Zhou's news. Whew, don't disagree with the bureau.

About ten minutes later, footsteps came from a distance, and Captain Zhou said, "...... It's done, wait for me to ask someone to move a chair and take off the painting for you, Xiaoli, come over here. Hearing him say this, my anxious heart finally relaxed, and when I saw the police officer stepping on a chair and taking off the huge picture scroll and rolling it, I immediately greeted it, thanked it, and held it in my arms regardless of the dust on the painting.

Then, after Captain Zhou praised me twice, he took Tiezi and Feizi to receive the bonus.

After leaving the police station, I was in a good mood and couldn't help humming a pop song I had just learned last week.

Lian Lian rolled her eyes and glared at me fiercely: "100,000 yuan is just like this!" Are you still beautiful? Beside him, Feizi was also talking to Tiezi in a very low voice, and from time to time he took his chin and pointed at me, as if he was laughing at me. Yes, in the eyes of others, my move of not wanting a bonus is really a bit of a show, they think I am fake and noble, right?

I ignored them and continued to hum my little tune on the ground.

Lianlian was so angry that she reached out and grabbed my arm: "I don't care, you promised to buy me clothes!" ”

"Oh, be careful." I took the painting and hid, "Don't break it." ”

Lian Lian made a motion to faint: "I'm a good girl, do you really treat it as a baby?" ”

Feizi and Tetsuko were both in college, and they didn't go with us because they had classes in the afternoon.

Lianlian and I sat in Yan Wanru's A8 and returned to Beiyuan Home.

As soon as she entered the house, Lianlian complained to Grandma Bao with added fuel and vinegar: "Brother Jing is so stupid, he solved the case, and he deserves to get a bonus of 100,000 yuan, but guess what happened to him?" I didn't want to, so I changed the broken painting and came back! Oops, I'm! ”

Yan Wanru smiled and flicked her daughter's head: "It's not big, it's not small." ”

Grandma Bao looked at me strangely: "You deserve the money, why didn't you ask for it?" ”

I was about to speak, but Yan Wanru explained for me: "He, it must be because of my relationship, he thinks he should help me, and he is embarrassed to take the money, so he symbolically took the painting." ”

I interrupted: "I didn't mean that, Sister Yan, this painting is actually greasy, but it's not as simple as it seems. ”

"Bragging!" Lian Lian said very politely: "If it's really an ancient painting, can't my mother recognize it?" ”

Yan Wanru glanced at me angrily, "Hehe, your Sister Yan has also been in the cultural relics market for ten years, little thing, are you doubting Sister Yan's eyesight?" She sat down beside me, reached out and took it, spread it out on the couch, pointed to it, and said, "Remember what I taught you?" Neither the picture quality nor the framing is right. ”

"Brother Jing, you are so stupid." Lianlian also came over and hit me hard.

I smiled, "I know this picture was printed on a computer." ”

Yan Wanru said curiously: "Huh? Then you still say that you are tired? ”

"I'm not talking about the painting." I directly took the painting shaft on Yan Wanru's leg to my side, twisted it hard, and unscrewed the rightmost end of the fist-thick plastic painting shaft with a click, and immediately, the tilted painting shaft fell downward, and in the stunned sight of Yan Wanru's mother and daughter, brush, something actually slipped out of the painting scroll!

An ancient painting of small size!

Yan Wanru and Lianlian were stunned for a moment!

Yan Wanru carefully spread out the small picture scroll in a daze, and the next moment, she gasped: "...... Zhang Daqian's ...... "The Lady Who Cultivates Bamboo"!? How can it be! This painting ...... How could it be here!? ”
