Chapter 37 No Trace
Are you kidding?
Shouldn't that precious emerald necklace be worn around Jiang Yi's neck?
Why is it suddenly gone?
Is it okay for her to take it off and confiscate it?
Without waiting for him to think about it more, Jiang Yi directly pushed him to the front of the stage.
"Are you a police officer? Why are you still stunned, hurry up and catch the thief! ”
"That's a rare treasure, if you can find it, Lady Helian will definitely have a big reward!"
"This policeman is young, will he solve the case?"
"It's unbelievable, there are thieves here, it's not safe, no, I have to go first!"
"Yes, Lady Helian, I'll take my leave."
These guys, the tone of their voice is really uncomfortable!
Seeing that many guests were about to leave, Mrs. Helian looked at Chu Mufeng like a help, and her tone was full of begging: "Captain Chu, you are a policeman, you must help!" ”
There's nothing wrong with that.
No matter what those who watch the excitement say,
As a policeman, Chu Mufeng had no reason to be indifferent to this matter, pretending to be stupid.
Under the earnest gaze of Mrs. Helian and Jiang Yi, he walked out of the crowd quickly, walked to the few guests who wanted to leave, took out his ID and waved it, and said in a deep voice.
"I am Chu Mufeng from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Police Department, and from now on, no one can leave here until the theft case is investigated. Lady Helian, please have the door shut! Please stay where you are and do not move around. ”
"Okay, okay! Uncle De, close the door! ”
Madame Helian quickly turned her head and ordered, and suddenly someone ran to close the door.
Lady Helian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the door closed, then turned to look at the guests and said apologetically.
"Everyone, I hope you will understand. But the matter has come to this point, and I have to make this decision. ”
"As you all know, that emerald is not only priceless, but also significant, and I must not watch a thief steal it."
"It's okay, Mrs. Helian, I can understand your feelings!"
"yes, don't worry, we'll wait, it's okay!"
"Mrs. Helian, you can't say that, can you? We're here to attend your dinner, not to be seen as thieves. ”
"That's it, whoever stole your emerald and who you went to and left us all here, why? Do you have proof that we are thieves? ”
"Tsk, there was a theft case after eating a meal, what is this called!!"
……
Some of the guests present were considerate, while others were unacceptable, and they were in an uproar for a while.
Seeing that the situation here was about to get out of control, Chu Mufeng took a step forward and said unhurriedly: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me." ”
"Speaking of which, you are all characters with heads and faces, and I, Chu Mufeng, naturally will not embarrass you. But you have all seen it, Mrs. Helian reported the crime on the spot, saying that the emerald was stolen here, and I happen to be here, can I not ask? ”
"I don't think you want to be misunderstood, so you have to leave and be a suspected thief for such a bad crime, right?"
"So please be patient, I will hurry up and investigate, and strive to catch the thief as soon as possible, so that everyone can leave early, and I hope you can cooperate with us in the investigation!"
"I think what Captain Chu said is right."
Zhang Guangsheng, the editor-in-chief of Fengwen Political Affairs, decisively stood up and echoed: "We were all invited by Mrs. Helian, so we can't watch other people's heirlooms being stolen, right?" ”
"Let me tell you, this Captain Chu is now a celebrity in the Police Department, a great detective, and has solved several major cases in a row, and our newspaper is preparing to interview him in the near future, with him, it should be solved quickly!"
With Zhang Guangsheng's words, the rest of the people are not as resistant as they were just now.
"Captain Chu, please!" Lady Helian looked forward to it.
"I'll do my best!"
Then, Chu Mufeng turned his head and said, "Mrs. Helian, do you have a phone at home?" You have too many guests here, so I'm going to call back to the police department and send a team of people over to help with the questioning. ”
"Yes, yes, I'll take you!" Mrs. Helian immediately answered.
"Mom, you accompany the guests here, I'll take Captain Chu there!" Jiang Yi took the initiative to stand up and said.
"It's okay, then you hurry up and take Captain Chu over!" Mrs. Helian wiped the corners of her eyes and said.
"Captain Chu, please follow me!"
As he spoke, Jiang Yi took the lead in the front.
Before leaving, Chu Mufeng glanced at Shen Lang, who suddenly understood and began to help maintain the scene, so as not to make waves again.
"Captain Chu, the phone is there!"
After entering the room, Yang pointed to the phone, Jiang Yi was teary-eyed, and her mood seemed to plummet.
"Good!"
Walking forward, Chu Mufeng picked up the phone and called back to the police department, and it was Pei Dongchang who was on duty tonight.
After hearing the captain's order, he immediately gathered the remaining personnel and hurried over.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Mufeng turned around and just wanted to comfort Jiang Yi, when he suddenly saw a new thing.
"Miss Jiang, this bird is a parrot, right?"
"Well, it's a parrot, my mother likes to raise birds, and she bought this parrot for a lot of money." Jiang Yi squeezed out a wry smile and introduced.
There are a lot of people who like to raise birds and walk birds in these four nine cities, some like birdsong, some love to practice things, each has its own characteristics, each has fun.
Chu Mufeng didn't take this seriously, but he felt that this parrot had some characteristics, especially the cluster of silver short hairs on the top of his head, like a small crown.
When Chu Mufeng returned to the second floor, many guests were impatient.
One by one, they were either unhappy, indignant, or blew their beards and glared, putting on a posture that they were absolutely okay and not afraid of investigation.
"Hey, this official, I said can we start?"
"yes, how long will it take, I still have something to do when I go back!"
"If you have anything you want to ask, hurry up and ask, if you grind again, believe it or not, I'll call your director!"
Hehe, call our director?
For this, Chu Mufeng disagreed.
As for the group of people who came over tonight, he listened to Shen Lang's introduction.
Although they are all a little bit wealthy and have some status, they don't seem to have the qualifications to talk to our director, and they still have credibility to call the director!
Usually a theft like this, if you want to investigate, it is actually very simple, and a body search is a necessary process.
However, if the body search can't be found, in tonight's situation, he really can't detain so many people and go back to continue the investigation.
Maybe the thief had already quietly left.
Letting everyone stay now can only be said to have a glimmer of hope.
"Everyone, please be quiet, and please think carefully about whether any of you acted alone just now. If so, please raise your hand. ”
Crash.
As Chu Mufeng's question came out, many people present raised their hands.
According to their words, we are all going for convenience, is this considered acting alone? Do you still want to call friends and go together?
"Fourth, it's not easy to check." Shen Lang walked over and whispered.
"I know that, but what do you say? Do you want to do a body search now? I have found so many people myself, so let's wait, the brothers below are rushing over! ”
Chu Mufeng glanced at the noisy scene, shook his head slightly and raised his eyebrows and said.
"Alas, that's all it can be!" Shen Lang also felt a little tired.
But soon Pei Dongchang hurried over with his team members, and when he saw his subordinates on the scene, Chu Mufeng didn't say a word, and directly ordered a body search.
After all, such a large gem can't be hidden casually, and it's summer now, and there is nothing to hide on your body.
And then what?
After the first search, nothing was found.
Pei Dongchang walked over and said in a low voice: "Captain, they have checked everything in their bags and pockets, and they haven't found the emerald you said, what do you think about now?" ”
"Didn't you?"
Chu Mufeng was also mentally prepared for this result, which was originally a matter of luck.
But his intuition told him that the emerald should not have left here yet, and should be hidden somewhere.
"Captain Chu, please help!" Madame Helian was discolored, and I wept with pity.
"Mom, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, it's me who is too careless." Jiang Yi couldn't help choking up.
"Check again, this exchange check!" Chu Mufeng's eyes were slightly cold.
"Yes!"
Pei Dongchang and they were also a little annoyed, if the gem was on these people and couldn't be searched for it, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
But the group of guests quit.
They also have a bit of status, and it is enough for you police to check once, and now they have to come a second time.
What's wrong? Do you think we can't be bullied?
As a result, everyone shouted and vented all kinds of dissatisfaction and complaints.
"Everyone, please cooperate again!" Chu Mufeng only said with good words.
Or else? Do you really want to arrest them?
Of course it's impossible, I'm not a big man, just the captain of a criminal investigation team, and it's commendable enough to be able to do this.
"I'm sorry everyone, please be considerate and considerate!" Mrs. Helian was also there to help.
Yes, due to the situation, this group of people finally cooperated with the inspection again, but the result was still the same as the last time, and nothing was found.
After this toss, it was already late at night, and everyone showed tiredness and fatigue.
This person, if he wants to sleep and can't sleep, will lose his temper, just like they are now.
"When the hell do I think I'm going to check? Since we don't have any gems on us, we should be able to go. ”
"I'm sleepy, I've checked it twice, can I go?"
"Lady Helian, are you inviting us to a banquet, or are you here to suffer!"
"Hey, Captain Chu, if you don't let me go, I'm really going to call your hall director."
……
Yawning and complaining.
Since he never found out, there was no need to waste any more time, Chu Mufeng ordered to open the courtyard gate and watch with his own eyes as everyone here left here and disappeared into the vast darkness.
