It has been a week since Ye Zhengfei's funeral was completed, and the Xin family has also recognized Ye Zilan as a new member of the family, which is undoubtedly a huge psychological comfort for Ye Zilan, who has lost her parents.

Originally, Chen Xia suggested that Ye Zilan sell the antique store in Graceland and start a new life, plus a girl who doesn't know anything can't run this antique store well, but the stubborn Ye Zilan disagrees, the antique store is her father's life's work, and she doesn't want to throw it away like this. If you don't understand, you can learn, and there is Xin Yifan, he is a signboard of Graceland in terms of appraising antiques, but now he can't be called Dr. Silly Bao to appraise treasures. Chen Xia can't help it, she recognizes her goddaughter, she can only support her reasonable ideas unconditionally, Xin Yifan was arranged by her mother to help this newly recognized sister take care of the antique store.

The Ye family's antique shop was originally called Shiyizhai, Ye Zilan didn't plan to change it, Ye Zilan didn't understand the operation of the antique store, so she had to ask Xin Yifan for help, Xin Yifan is a doctor of archaeology, and he has no problem with identification and restoration of antiques, but he knows nine out of ten for running an antique store - he doesn't know anything. Ye Zilan is about to graduate this year, and she is about to face writing a thesis and defense, and she has no time to care, so Chen Xia asked Xin Yifan to help think about her future plans first.

Just when Xin Yifan was at a loss, Yu Chengdong called, Xin Yifan was like grasping a life-saving straw, and complained to Yu Chengdong about the current situation, Yu Chengdong on the other end of the phone heard the misfortune of the Ye family, and also sighed at the impermanence of the world, took pity on Ye Zilan, and promised to help introduce a few friends who do antique business to teach them basic things first, and told Xin Yifan that he had any needs, as long as he was within his ability, he just spoke, which made Xin Yifan a little moved, Xin Yifan has followed Yu Chengdong since he started studying for a master's degree, and he has been for seven or eight years, especially after Xin Yifan's car accident, Yu Chengdong still cares about their mother and son, and will take time to visit them every month, almost all of their requests are responsive, of course, Chen Xia's mother and son are never willing to cause trouble to others. After talking about the Ye family, Yu Chengdong came again: "Yifan, do you remember the last time I mentioned to you about the theft of Li Sheng's tomb?"

"Remember, did you catch someone?" Xin Yifan replied.

"A few days ago, there were several tragic cases in Qiaotou Village, Zhangjiajia, Gaoling City, Qin Province, the police found a large number of cultural relics in the homes of the deceased, and later let the local cultural relics department to identify, but it is amazing, from the pre-Qin to the Ming and Qing dynasties, basically they are funeral goods, I have also seen it in the past, I just rushed back today, and found some burial goods in this batch of cultural relics that may be stolen from Li Sheng's tomb. Therefore, the police determined that the victims should be a group of tomb robbers and antiquities dealers, and that the crime was family-style. But they were all killed, and now the police suspect that it may be the revenge of the enemy, or it may be the vendetta caused by the uneven distribution of the spoils after several joint tomb robbers. Okay, Yifan, I won't talk to you anymore, I'll go to you when I have time. With that, Yu Chengdong hung up the phone.

Of course, Xin Yifan would not mention to Yu Chengdong that Ye Zhengfei had participated in the sale of stolen goods, Ye Zilan and he did not mention it when he was at the police station, but Ye Zhengfei is likely to lose his life because of this, Yu Chengdong's phone mentioned several homicides, and the things in Li Sheng's tomb were found at home, will those dead be the same people who came to Ye Zhengfei last time, and will their deaths have anything to do with Ye Zhengfei's death? Xin Yifan's heart was full of questions, Ye Zhengfei's body was found by the police when there was nothing on his body, his death, the police identified it as a murder, but who killed him, where did those cultural relics go, and who did he go to Guangdong Province to find? Xin Yifan wanted to know.

The police have no clues about Ye Zhengfei's death, Xin Yifan wondered whether he should tell the police the clues he knew? He decided to discuss with Ye Zilan first, after all, this matter may affect Ye Zhengfei's reputation, and Ye Zilan's attitude is very important.

Ye Zilan moved to the Xin family since the Chinese New Year, and after her father's accident, Chen Xia accompanied her every day, afraid that she would have three long and two short, so she let her stay in the Xin family. I don't worry that she will go back to her house alone, and no one will take care of her.

The house where the Xin family lives now was bought five years ago when Xin Yifan was just studying for a doctorate, and the house price at that time was only half of what it is now, with a building area of one hundred and fourteen, four bedrooms and two living rooms, not far from the city center, Xin Yifan's father Xin Jianguo also retired this year, and the family lived together, and Ye Zilan moved to live at home.

Ye Zilan is a senior in college, and she will graduate in a few months, and now she is mainly working on her dissertation, although there is such a big thing in the family, this strong girl no longer has the dejected appearance of the beginning, but she has lost a lot of weight.

Xin Yifan knocked on Ye Zilan's door and saw that Ye Zilan's eyes were dark, and it was estimated that she couldn't sleep well during this time, so she asked her to go to the living room with her to talk about the antique store. At this time, Chen Xia and Xin Jianguo went out, and there were two brothers and sisters at home.

"Xiaolan, things have happened, we can't just live in the past, right, Uncle Ye definitely wants you to be well, and you have to take good care of yourself, so that you can be worthy of Uncle Ye and our mother, right?" Xin Yifan was worried that Ye Zilan would hurt her body if she continued to be sad, so she enlightened her.

"Brother Yifan, I know, I'll be fine. Ye Zilan nodded and said.

"Now we have to start the re-fasting again, this is also your own idea, the relict fasting is Uncle Ye's hard work for most of his life, we can't smash the signboard, right?" In order to let Ye Zilan come out as soon as possible, Xin Yifan decided to find her more things to do.

"We should now clear the inventory first, know the family background of our store, and then look at the receivables and payables, as well as the previous purchase and sales channels, you have to understand, learn, brother has no experience, but I will do my best to help you, Mr. Yu also promised to help provide resources. Xin Yifan told Ye Zilan about these thoughts he had sorted out.

"Brother Yifan, then when are we going to start? I used to know nothing but help my father do the accounting, so I will listen to you no matter how you do it. Ye Zilan still has that attitude, she listens to Xin Yifan for everything, she thinks that this doctor brother is very capable, and he can even appreciate treasures when he becomes stupid, and now that he has recovered, he must be even more powerful, and he is right to listen to him.

"There is another thing that I have to discuss with you, and that is about the purpose of Uncle Ye's trip to Guangdong Province that I mentioned to you last time. Xin Yifan looked at Ye Zilan's eyes and said very seriously.

Ye Zilan understood what Xin Yifan meant, and asked with some hesitation: "Brother Yifan, are you sure that those people are tomb robbers? This is also what Ye Zilan is most worried about.

"Xiaolan, Teacher Yu called me today, saying that there have been several homicides in Qin Province, and a large number of cultural relics have been found in the homes of these deceased, among which there may be artifacts stolen from the same tomb that Uncle Ye collected last time. ”

"Are you saying that the people who died could be those tomb robbers who had looked for their father?" Ye Zilan was very smart, and she instantly understood what Xin Yifan meant.

Xin Yifan nodded and continued: "I think there may be a connection between Uncle Ye's murder and the death of those tomb robbers, if we tell the police, we may help the police solve the case as soon as possible, so that Uncle Ye can also be blind." His words made Ye Zilan a little moved, Ye Zilan had to make a choice to find out the murderer and her father's reputation, she naturally hoped to catch the murderer as soon as possible, even if his father was really involved in selling stolen goods, he also paid the price of his life, and the real murderer is still at large. If you provide clues to the police, the more likely it is to catch the real murderer, and after thinking about it for a long time, Ye Zilan chose to provide clues to the police with Xin Yifan.

I called Chen Xia first, and roughly talked about the situation, and the two went to the police station, they found the policewoman last time, and told her everything they knew, and Xin Yifan still concealed the crystal necklace in the middle, he felt that the value and importance of the necklace could not be compared with the stolen goods purchased by Ye Zhengfei, and the crystal on the crystal necklace had disappeared, and he himself could not explain the reason for the disappearance, how could he explain it clearly to the police.

The policewoman who received them was surnamed Qi, and when she heard that the clues they provided were very important, she immediately called the city bureau, and it didn't take long for the city bureau to call back, asking the two people who provided clues to wait a while, and the people from the task force came over immediately.

The two waited in the reception room for almost an hour, and Officer Qi came over and told them that the city bureau task force had arrived.

Soon they arrived at another small conference room larger than the reception room, there were three people sitting in it, two men and one woman, and when they saw Officer Qi bring Xin Yifan and the two in, the three of them stood up, led by a man who looked to be in his thirties, about the same height as Xin Yifan, about one meter eight, with a sturdy figure, firm eyes, a Chinese face, a short haircut, and a man who looked very energetic, the girl next to him had short hair that reached his ears, and he couldn't see any makeup, and his big eyes were very attractive, but his eyes were a little cold, and a taller man behind him looked like he was in his twenties, wearing glasses, and he looked like Svenwen, none of the three wore police uniforms.

The capable man stretched out his hand and said: "Hello, I am Du Gang, deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Municipal Bureau, thank you for providing clues to the police, the bureau attaches great importance to it, let us come over to learn about the specific situation from you, this is Qiao Minshan of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, this is Yan Jun, a comrade from the Physical Evidence Identification Center of the Municipal Bureau, please take a seat." This Captain Du briefly introduced himself and his colleagues, and shook hands with Xin Yifan and Ye Zilan, speaking and acting as capable as others.

Xin Yifan also opened his mouth to introduce himself: "Hello Captain Du, my name is Xin Yifan, and this is my sister Ye Zilan. As soon as Xin Yifan finished speaking, Qiao Minshan next to Du Gang asked in a somewhat surprised voice: "Xin Yifan, are you from the Beijing Institute of Archaeology?"
