Just as the security guard got up and was about to walk in the direction of the bathroom, his gaze inadvertently swept over the monitoring screen of a small square screen, so—

"Oh God! Am I dazzled? Iger, turn your head and take a look—" The security guard screamed in jaw-drop.

The security guard, Igger, was startled by his colleague's screams, "What's wrong?" He asked why, blinking his sleepy eyes and looking in the direction of the surveillance screen—

Then, another "Oh God! The screams rang out in the surveillance room in the dead of night.

When Egger saw the image displayed on the small square screen, his sleepy bugs were immediately scared away.

I saw him bounce up from the chair, rushed to the surveillance screen, looked at the empty stadium image display, turned his head to look at his colleague in horror, and stammered, "When did this happen?" ”

"It's a bit of a fart to ask 'when did it happen' now! Hurry up and call the police! After yelling, Iger's colleague rushed to the monitoring device and pressed the alarm.

In an instant—the alarm bell rang

Immediately afterwards, Iger pulled out the pistol on his waist, hesitantly walked to the door of the monitoring room, turned his head to look at his colleague and asked, "George, do you think we should go to the venue to check?" ”

His colleague George sneered and replied, "Now I'll check for a fart!" You don't see any people on this monitor screen now! I reckon. This thief should have run away long ago! If we go to the venue to inspect it now, we might even destroy the first scene after the theft! I said, let's stay here honestly and wait for the police to come! ”

George, a security guard with only a high school education, although he has to face these artworks on the surveillance screen every day, although he does not understand the artistic value of these collections at all, he knows that every loss of the museum will be compensated by the insurance company, and the entire investigation process of tracking down the thief will also be taken over by the police!

So. In George's opinion. They are just security guards, and as long as they press the alarm, they are done with their duties. As for catching the thief, let's wait for the police to come and leave it to the police.

The timid Iger didn't think so, only to see him squeak: "I was worried that we were both dozing off before I was worried." We don't know when the thief came! Will we be remiss at that time? ”

Egger's words immediately reminded George.

Just now, he and his colleague were both dozing off. They don't know when the thieves visited the museum. In case there is a long gap between the time the burglars visit the museum and the time they go off the alarm. This is definitely a dereliction of duty on their part!

If you are a little more unlucky, you may still be suspected by the police of conspiring with thieves!

George didn't want to be a scapegoat for the thieves, so. He immediately walked to the front of the surveillance equipment and pressed the rewind button of the surveillance record, ready to check the whole story of the theft.

So

When the scene of "The Ghost Haunting" appeared in front of George and Iger-

The first reaction of the timid Iger was - another terrifying scream sounded in the surveillance room!

And George's reaction was obviously relieved!

"In the middle of the night, can you stop calling Egger?" George stopped Iger's screams, took a cigarette out of his pocket, lit it, and comforted his colleague: "You should be glad! Because of this surveillance record, no one can say that we are derelict in our duties! Come on, smoke a cigarette and slow down! The police will be there in a moment, so let's make a confession before the police come! ”

Iger was soothed by George.

After he stopped his fear and nervousness, he reached out and took the cigarette handed by George, then took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the cigarette, smoking the cigarette and asking, "George, this looks like another 'ghost treasure theft'!" Even if you want to find a scapegoat, you won't find us, so what else do you have to confess? ”

As soon as George heard Egger's stupid answer, he immediately rolled his eyes at the other party and glared, "Why don't you count how much time has passed between the appearance of the 'ghost' and the time we turn off the alarm?" ”

Iger reacted immediately, "How much time have you been paying attention?" He asked, looking nervously at George.

"I've seen it, it's about ten minutes or so!" After George replied with a frown, he began to think deeply about the cigarette in his mouth

After a while, George looked up at his colleague and said in a bewitching voice, "You and I don't want to be held accountable for dereliction of duty, right?" ”

Iger nodded in agreement.

"Since none of us want to be held accountable for dereliction of duty, then we must not say that we were all dozing off at the time of the crime!" George looked at his colleague with a firm expression, "When the police come and ask why it took us nearly ten minutes to turn on the alarm device, you must answer according to the answer I taught you!" ”

Iger stammered, "Howhow-shouldI-answer?" (How can I answer it)"

"You just say" George patted Iger on the shoulder, looked firmly into the other party's eyes and said, "You just say, as soon as you and I saw that all the surveillance screens suddenly went black, the two of us immediately opened the safety bolt of the pistol, and then rushed towards the venue, ready to stop the thieves' theft!" But when the two of us arrived at the scene of the theft, we said that we didn't see any of us, and all the collections in the venue, along with the display cases, had disappeared inexplicably! So, after checking on the spot, we hurried back to the monitoring room and pressed the alarm device! Then rewind after looking at the stolen surveillance records. Only to find out that this qiē turned out to be a 'ghost' at work! Do you understand? ”

After pondering the whole rhetoric, Iger found several loopholes in it: "George, if you follow your statement, the two of us should go to the venue before the police come, at least the fingerprints of our opening of the door should be left here at the inner door!" And—"

As he spoke, Iger turned his head and tapped on the surveillance screen: "How do we explain - why didn't we leave a record image of our inspection of the venue in this surveillance record?" ”

When George heard this, he began to scratch the back of his head with a headache.

After a moment, he clenched his fist. looked at Iger with blazing eyes and said, "I can only say that I don't know!" Remember one thing – anything we can't answer. They all insisted that this was a 'ghost' at work! All the video records were obscured by the black magic of the 'ghost'! ”

After speaking, George turned his head to look at the time display on the monitoring screen, then quickly picked up the lighting equipment, patted Iger on the shoulder and said, "It's too late to discuss." The police should be there soon. Take advantage of the moment when they haven't arrived yet. Let's go to the inner door first to touch the door lock, leave fingerprint records, and round out some of the confessions! ”

It's okay for Iger to find a loophole, but he can't find a solution at all.

And. From the bottom of his heart, Iger decided that such a huge collection in the venue could disappear without a trace in such a short period of time, and this kind of supernatural event could not be man-made at all, and it could only be the legendary 'ghost' or the work of aliens!

Therefore, this set of rhetoric given by George, he accepted it all without giggling at all!

So, without saying a word, Iger picked up another lighting device, and followed behind George quickly, and the two hurriedly walked towards the monitoring room and the inner door of the venue

At the same time, the wisp of divine consciousness that had been attached to the light tube of the monitoring room followed the two security guards all the way, waited for the inner door at the passage, got into the crack of the door, and returned to the top of the space jade, quietly waiting for the arrival of the police

About three or four minutes later—

Pei Pei's divine sense sensed that the sound of police car horns from far and near finally came from outside the door.

Then, having returned to the surveillance room, George opened the outer door of the Phoenix Art Museum.

And at the same time—

Pei Pei controlled the space Yujue, and quietly slipped out of the gate of the venue under the cover of the police's footsteps, and got into the dark night sky

The next day, overwhelming-

- "The Ghost Treasure Theft Case is once again staged at the Phoenix Museum of Art!" The security guards on duty swore by it - it was absolutely impossible for this to be a man-made case! 》

- "The FBI's task force is now in Phoenix!" The case-handling personnel did not have the slightest clue, so they could only answer the reporter "no comment"! 》

- "Is it the "ghost" or the "alien" that is doing it, the FBI can't do anything! The answer may only be found by the prefect of District 51! 》

Sensational headlines like this have been featured in major news outlets!

In the next few days, the limelight of the third "ghost treasure theft" that happened in Phoenix suddenly overshadowed the public opinion of the "Triple Crown" winning the "Kentucky Taxi Grand Prix" and the "Belgian Grand Prix", and became the hottest current affairs news in those days!

And the perpetrator Pei Pei had already left the place of the crime - Phoenix City at this time, and together with her husband Austin, she rushed to Washington, D.C., where the White House is located, carrying the "Big Shark in the Sky", waiting for the Supreme Court trial of the upcoming "Brown Bear Tribal Land Claim Case"!
