North Garden Homestead.

I didn't ask in detail on the phone, and I made an appointment with Yan Wan to meet at her house, so I took a taxi to her house while recalling the report in my previous life. I don't remember the usual criminal cases very well, but I know very well about the uproar about the theft of Yan Wanru, after all, Sister Yan has a lot of influence, whether at school or at home, everyone talks about it a lot. At about 9:10 in the morning, I knocked on the door of Sister Yan's house, and she was the only one in the room, with a sad expression on her face.

"Black tea or green tea?" Yan Wanru bent down and took out two pots of tea from under the coffee table.

I took the tea canister and helped her to sit down on the sofa with a low mood: "Don't worry about it, I'll make it myself, what about Grandma Bao and Lianlian?" "At breakfast, Yuan Yazhen served me so well, not only peeled two eggs for me, but also served two bowls of white fungus porridge to me, in the face of her enthusiasm, I was embarrassed to refuse, but after eating it, I found that my stomach was a little uncomfortable, I heard that black tea nourishes the stomach, I grabbed a small handful of black tea, mixed with boiling water.

Yan Wanru sighed, rubbed her dark circles and said, "Lianlian went to school, and my mother went to live at the old neighbor's house." ”

I was concerned, "Didn't sleep well yesterday? Don't worry, can you tell me more about it? ”

"Alas, that's the ......"

It turned out that on the evening of the day I had dinner with Xiaolong's head teacher and her lover Brother Lu, Yan Wanru went back to Shichahai's home, that is, the place where she used it as a warehouse to store antiques, and after opening the door with a key, she didn't notice anything at first, so she went to the hut to find the bronzes and two pieces of porcelain that were ready to be auctioned in the autumn. She found that there was no bronze in all the safes in the inner room, I was afraid that she was mistaken, Yan Wanru went to the outhouse to look for it, or no, finally, she and the wall of the inner room saw the traces of friction on the concrete floor, only to remember that there was originally a safe there, and tossed and turned in the house, in addition to the bronze safe, there was actually a safe disappeared, so Yan Wanru called the police.

Hearing this, I gradually understood that Brother Lu received a call from the temporary police that day, probably because of Sister Yan.

I said, "What are the two things you lost?" ”

Yan Wanru, who was leaning on the sofa, nodded her eyebrows, and said worriedly: "One is the Ming Xuande furnace, the copper three-legged cylinder furnace, the market valuation is more than one million yuan, and the other is the four treasures of the jade study, the innocent jade three children's washing, the market valuation is less than two million yuan, alas, they are all good things." ”

My hanging heart relaxed slightly, the stolen things were the same as in my previous life, and it seemed that my butterfly effect did not affect the people who stole things. After thinking about it, I said, "How is the police investigating now?" Did you catch anyone? "This kind of multi-million case may have alarmed many people, and Yan Wanru has a special identity, and one of the bronzes is going to be donated to Hope Primary School, so the above should be very important.

Yan Wanru shook her head silently: "If I catch it, I won't be so annoyed, there are reactions from the surrounding residents, about two days before I called the police, two unknown men came outside our building, the residents thought they were stealing cars, and his family didn't have a bicycle outside, so he didn't pay too much attention, and then there was a witness who also saw them, after description, the police preliminarily concluded that these two Henan people did the case, and they were making every effort to arrest them, but after two to three days apart, they were likely to have left Yanjing and even sold their things." , I haven't caught it yet, so this morning, the police issued a wanted warrant, and also shook out the situation of the two antiques, just waiting for the insider to report. ”

I nodded, lifted the notebook I was carrying, checked it on the Internet, and sure enough, I saw that message, if there is relevant information to assist the police in solving the case, a reward of 50,000 yuan to 100,000 yuan will be given.

Ding dong...... Ding dong...... Ding dong...... The doorbell rang, and Yan Wanru walked over to open the door listlessly, "...... Here it comes? Let's get inside. ”

There were two boys who were about the same age as me who came in, and when they saw me, they were stunned, "Teacher Yan, is he?" ”

Yan Wanru introduced me first: "They are the two apprentices I took in the year before last. He pointed to the honest and upright young man, "His name is Liu Tie, you can just call him Tiezi." Then he pointed to the quick-witted boy: "...... His name is Liu Fei, and you are also called Feizi, they are cousins. ”

I stood up and nodded to them: "My name is Gu Jing, and I am also Sister Yan's student, hello." ”

"Hello." Tiezi didn't ask much.

Feizi's strange gaze swept over me: "Huh? Teacher Yan has accepted apprentices again? ”

I smiled: "The teacher I just worshipped." ”

After saying hello, the four of us sat down on the couch.

Tiezi is more taciturn, and he looks very restrained in front of Yan Wanru, but Feizi can speak well, and his surname is more flamboyant, so he only listens to him: "Teacher Yan, just now my brother and I went to the antique city for a turn, I didn't see Xuande furnace and Bai Yuxi, and in the afternoon, we will go to Panjiayuan to have a look, and I will call you if there is news." ”

Yan Wanru nodded with a reluctant smile: "It's hard." ”

"It should be, it should be." Feizi stammered a little, got up and picked up the kettle, and poured water for Yan Wanru.

I blinked in confusion.

Seeing this, Yan Wanru explained: "The police professionals are limited, and the Xuande furnace and the white jade washing market are not small, and there are many fakes, so even if they are found, the police can't determine whether it is the one I lost, so I asked them for help, Tiezi and Feizi have studied with me for two years, and the level of identification is very high, if they see what I lost in the market, they will definitely not admit their mistake." ”

I sighed: "Then I'll help you find it, there's a picture of something, right?" ”

Yan Wanru took out two color pictures from the A4 paper pressed under the phone and handed them to me: "That's it, I remember to take it out for you to see." After saying that, he grabbed my arm very casually.

Feizi and Tiezi were both stunned, as if they were pondering the relationship between the two of us.

Staring at Yan Wanru's hand around my arm, Feizi's face was not very good-looking, and he looked at me complicatedly: "Teacher, it's enough to have me and my brother, Gu Jing just learned appraisal from you, and it doesn't make sense to go." I shook my head secretly, I guess Feizi had some thoughts about Yan Wanru, of course, it could also be the so-called ...... Competing for favor?

Hearing this, Yan Wanru smiled and touched my head: "Don't underestimate him, if we compare with the identification of cultural relics alone, we may be more than one step better than him, but when it comes to picking up leaks and making money, Xiaojing is many times more powerful than us combined." ”

Feizi looked at Yan Wanru with a little jealousy as the hand touching my head, "What do you mean?" ”

I said, "I'm just lucky, I don't have any real skills, and I'll ask you two for more advice in the future." ”

After sitting for a while, Tiezi and I didn't say much, so I listened to Feizi being attentive there, and took the initiative to help Yan Wanru with housework, and even washed and cut the dishes to be eaten at noon in advance.

Yan Wanru said helplessly: "Feizi, don't be busy, you can also sit and rest for a while." ”

The flying man who cleaned up the kitchen wiped his sweat: "I'm not tired, it's okay to stay, why don't we go to Panjiayuan now?" Maybe we'll be able to get it back? ”

Tiezi nodded in agreement, "Yes." ”

After two words of persuasion, seeing that the two of them didn't stop, Yan Wanru had to sigh and said: "That's hard work for you, I also have to go to Shichahai to see if the neighbors can find new clues." After speaking, she glanced at me: "Jing, are you with me?" ”

Feizi immediately said, "Let him follow us." ”

I looked at Feizi and mumbled, "...... I went to Panjiayuan and called if I had something. ”

On the way to Panjiayuan, Feizi always showed off his knowledge of antiques to me, intentionally or unintentionally, and talked about his several wonderful stories of picking up leaks, which was even worse after arriving at Panjiayuan, he pulled us to a stall selling porcelain, and commented on those porcelains without a head, and asked me what I thought, I smiled bitterly, but pretended not to understand anything, and let him play.

Around noon.

Feizi looked at me with a little more contempt, "Your identification level needs to be improved." ”

Ringing ring, my phone rang, I picked it up and listened, it was Yan Wanru's surprised voice.

"Xiaojing, I'm in Shichahai, I just got the news from the police, the two suspects have been caught and are being interrogated by the city bureau."

This was already expected by me, and I smiled: "That's a good dare, did they explain the problem?" ”

"I heard that the Xuande furnace was found in their residence, and the two of them haven't had time to sell it yet, well, the problem seems to have been explained, but only limited to the Xuande furnace, they may have discussed it in advance, and they didn't admit that Bai Yuxi was also in their hands, the case is still being tried, and it is estimated that the results will be available later, by the way, don't look for it, come to Shichahai, I will have dinner in the evening." Hearing it, she was in a good mood.

"I've got some things to do, let them go."

After hanging up the phone, I talked to Feizi and Tiezi, and the two of them took a taxi to Shichahai.

I exhaled, and said in my heart that it was finally time for me to appear, and I must be nervous, and walked towards the row of merchants to the east.

Most of the things sold in these shops are very miscellaneous, porcelain, bronze, jade, almost all kinds of things, I walked around, I had a bottom in my heart, turned back, and entered a shop that mainly sells jade. There were three people in the house, a balding middle-aged boss in his forties, who was carefully telling the three guests about the grading of Hetian jade.

I didn't rush up to talk, but looked left and right in the store.

Ten minutes later, when the servants were gone, I took a step forward, "Boss, do you have anything better?" ”

The boss looked at me and smiled, "How good is it?" ”

I pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't have to be a pendant jewelry, but it must be a little old." ”

"Oh?" The boss thought for a while, took out a box from the back, and gently lifted the lid: "What do you think of this?" "It was an ancient jade hairpin.

I shook my head: "Is there anything better than this?" ”

The boss looked at me, said "Wait", and then pulled out a slightly larger box from the corner, "...... What about this one? "This is a pair of white jade bracelets.

I said, "You may not understand what I mean, I want to give gifts, and things should be more expensive." ”

When the boss took out the fourth thing, my eyes suddenly lit up, well, history really hasn't changed, it's okay, it's okay. After taking the thing and looking at it repeatedly for a while, I put it down, pretended to negotiate the price with him, and said to the boss before leaving: "Well, I don't have that much cash on hand, so you can put the things away first, I will order it, and I will send you money in a few hours." Xu felt that something was wrong, so I instructed, "Don't show it to others." ”

The boss smiled and promised to keep it for me.

Out of the Panjiayuan thrift market, I took a taxi and rushed to Shichahai.

When I got to the apartment where Yan Wanru lived, I didn't go upstairs, but slipped up to a tricycle on the other end. There were two old ladies sitting in the car, chatting with each other. One of them I knew, I met Yan Wanru at the door when I came back to her home.

"Hello, grandma." I greeted politely.

The old lady said, "It's you, who came to find Wanru?" ”

"yes."

"Well, you've heard about that, haven't you? I don't know which kid lacks morality, and even Wanru's things dare to steal, I see, after being caught, he should be shot. ”

I listened funny, echoed the old lady and said a few words, and then, gradually pulled the topic to the residents upstairs of Yan Wanru's house, in fact, I already knew the specific things, but in order to round the story, there must be clues to point there step by step, otherwise there is no way to explain to the police. When the conversation was almost done, I said goodbye and turned to go upstairs.

Yan Wanru's family came with a lot of people. In addition to Feizi and Tiezi, one of the other two was wearing a police uniform, which seemed to be from the criminal police team of the city bureau, and the other was about forty years old, muscular, and very strong. After Yan Wanru's introduction, I knew that the police officer's surname was Zhou, and the big man was a neighbor, named Qian Jianguo.

"Sister Yan, how is the trial over there?"

Yan Wanru stroked her hair: "Captain Zhou just communicated with the team, but the situation is still like that, the two of them bit to death, not to mention that Bai Yuxi was stolen by them, but the other circumstances were explained, and the safe that was pried open was also found in a small garden." ”

The police officer surnamed Zhou seemed to be the deputy captain of the city bureau, and when he heard this, he said: "But there are still many doubts, such as the two of them are not very strong, but the weight of the two safes is not light, if one person is one, how did they move down from the upper floor?" And to a small garden far away before prying it with a tool? ”

Feizi interjected, "Then they have other accomplices?" ”

Captain Zhou shook his head: "They didn't explain, it's not clear." ”

Qian Jianguo looked at us and suddenly said, "Then Teacher Yan, I'll go back if it's okay?" ”

Yan Wanru cast a grateful look: "The troubled neighbors are still thinking about me, thank you, I'll invite everyone to dinner another day." She personally sent Qian Jianguo out of the door, and through the crack in the door, I saw that he was walking upstairs.

I was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "Sister Yan, what floor does he live on?" ”

Yan Wan looked at me suspiciously: "Fifth floor, what's wrong?" ”

I sighed: "He's the one who watched the door with the radio and television?" ”

"Hey, how do you know?"

I put my fist in my mouth and coughed, and after everyone's eyes were attracted to me, I said: "I'm sorry, let me interject a sentence, in fact, I think the criminals are not necessarily just those two Henan people, just like Captain Zhou said, even if they have the strength to move the safe alone, but the speed is definitely not fast, and there are so many people along the way, there is no way to avoid it, right?" It only makes sense if two people move a safe together. ”

Feizi glanced at me: "They have accomplices." ”

"It doesn't have to be an accomplice." I said lightly: "Captain Zhou, did they close the door after they moved the safe and left?" ”

Captain Zhou was stunned, as if he understood what I meant, quickly picked up his mobile phone and called the bureau, and when the call ended, Captain Zhou was a little distracted and said: "They said that they were too nervous at the time and couldn't remember clearly, but eighty percent of them were not closed." ”

I nodded: "That's it, if the door is not closed, anyone can easily enter Sister Yan's house and move another safe after seeing it, and this person ......" I paused and pointed in the direction of the upstairs: "I just chatted with the grandmother downstairs, I heard that Qian Jianguo is watching the gate in radio and television, and often works overtime, and sometimes it is normal to come back at three or four o'clock in the morning, and his house is on the fifth floor, and he will inevitably pass by Sister Yan's house when he goes home, so ......"

Captain Zhou fell into deep thought.

Yan Wanru immediately vetoed: "Impossible! ”

I sighed in my heart, "He is the object of the most suspicion, one, he often goes home at night, two, he is sturdy, he can carry the safe upstairs alone, three, I heard that Qian Jianguo is divorced, the child is with his mother, he lives alone now, and he has the conditions to pry the safe open at home." ”

Captain Zhou said to himself: "That Qian Jianguo just seemed to have asked about the progress of the case in detail. ”

Yan Wanru glanced at me complainingly: "There is no evidence, don't speculate, I know Brother Qian, I am very honest, it will definitely not be him." ”

Captain Zhou shook his head and said: "Mr. Yan, I think his analysis is very reasonable, this Qian Jianguo, you have to check it, as for the evidence, if the other safe is really stolen by him, there will always be some clues, such as fingerprints, such as the safe that was pred open, such as the white jade wash." ”

Looking at them, I smiled and said, "That white jade wash, I know where it is." ”

"What!?" Several people looked at me in unison, "How do you know?" ”

I touched my nose: "I just went around with Pan Jiayuan, and I happened to see it, I think if I let the store recognize Qian Jianguo, the truth should be revealed." ”

Feizi didn't believe it: "You're not mistaken, are you? ”

Captain Zhou said, "Are you sure it's the one that Teacher Yan lost?" ”

I nodded, "Well, absolutely, uh, don't look at me like that, it's just lucky." ”

Yan Wanru almost fainted to the ground: "Luck? Luck again!? ”
