Chen Chuchuan stood in the corner of the banquet hall, facing the aroma of food and wine, he was unmoved, and only strictly exercised his duties, examining the guests at the banquet.

On the wall of one side of the banquet hall, many paintings, including "Starry Night", are hung, and people stop to admire them and exchange ideas about them.

A voice came from the earphones, it was the contact of his subordinate Xu Changjian.

"We have contacted Bai Ge's family, and his uncle promised that Bai Ge did say that he was going to a banquet tonight and would go out in the afternoon, do you need to let the two of them call to confirm?"

Chen Chuchuan thought for a moment and replied.

"Connect and call my phone."

As he spoke, he walked towards the dining table area with a wide variety of food, and saw Darmstadt's twin granddaughters, as well as Bai Ge, who sat next to the sleeping bamboo frost, took off his coat and draped it over the girl.

"I'm sorry, you're Bai Ge, right, I'm Chen Chuchuan from the Jingjiang Police Station, and your uncle has a phone call."

Chen Chuchuan glanced at the girl, and there was a subtle emotion in his heart, perhaps thinking that Bai Ge was drunk and trying to do something bad, but he didn't ask more, and only picked up his phone.

The phone vibrated and he picked it up and asked solemnly.

"Hello, Mr. Shen Nuo, right, please say a few words to Bai Ge."

Chen Chuchuan handed the phone to Bai Ge.

"It's a promise, isn't it...... What is Uncle Xu looking for me? ”

Bai Ge showed a hesitant expression, but he already knew in his heart that this was the police investigating him through acquaintances, and if it was replaced by someone else, he might have been exposed at this time.

The monster thief JOKER can disguise himself as another person, but he can only understand a person through the items that the other party carries with him, or through the preliminary investigation, and in the face of sudden contact with relatives, it is very likely to be exposed.

FOR EXAMPLE, NOW, CHEN CHUCHUAN DELIBERATELY CALLED THE WRONG NAME OF THE PROMISE, IF BAI GE WAS IMPERSONATED BY THE STRANGE THIEF JOKER, THEN IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT THE PROBLEM WILL BE EXPOSED IN THIS KIND OF INADVERTENT DETAIL.

However, what Chen Chuchuan probably couldn't have imagined was that what was sitting in front of him now was Bai Ge, who was like a fake.

OF COURSE, IT'S ALSO THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER.

Bai Ge took the phone and heard a slightly unfamiliar voice.

"Is it Bai Ge?"

"Huh? Isn't it Uncle Xu, you let him listen to the phone? ”

Another trap...... It seems that it is indeed easy to arouse suspicion when he appears here, Bai Ge thought.

The other party apologized, and then let the real promise pick up the phone.

"Bai Ge, let me tell you, there is something to discuss, you must not be excited, you must know that you still have a long way to go, don't ruin your life because of a momentary impulse."

“？”

Bai Ge really doesn't understand, what are you talking about, Uncle Xu?

"Uncle Xu, did you understand something wrong?"

"Huh? You went to a banquet and the police came looking for you, didn't you do something strange at the banquet and get caught? ”

The promise on the other end of the phone asked rhetorically.

"Did you kill someone? Bai Ge, let me tell you, if you are really so irresponsible, I must represent our old Xu family, uh, our old Bai family, it's not right, anyway, on behalf of our family's ancestors, break your dog's legs. ”

“......”

Bai Ge was speechless for a while.

Why does his uncle always think that Bai Ge will make trouble?

On the other side, Chen Chuchuan, who was listening to the conversation between the two by listening, frowned.

Isn't it a little strange about the way this family communicates?

He listened to Bai Ge explain a little, and then handed the phone back to him.

"Gather the team."

Chen Chuchuan said to the police officer on the other end of the phone and hung up the phone.

It seems that this is indeed not a pretend guest.

Chen Chuchuan thought about it, and glanced at the bamboo frost falling asleep in his coat again.

"Take care of your girlfriend."

He left a word, and turned to leave.

Zizi –

At this time, a new communication sound came from Chen Chuchuan's headphones.

"Boss, this is the monitoring room...... WE FOUND OUT THAT THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER WAS IN THE VAULT! ”

“！”

Chen Chuchuan's gaze subconsciously swept over Bai Ge and Bamboo Frost, swept over the twins, and swept over Darmstadt in the distance.

How so?

His mind was full of suspicions.

...

...

At the same time, in the urban area of Jingjiang, a declining commercial street.

Three police officers walked out of the Promise Bookstore, they hurriedly got into the police car, and drove away, not even noticing the middle-aged man carrying a plastic bag, wearing leather jackets, trousers, and cloth shoes on the road.

The middle-aged man glanced at the police car in the distance, smiled, and walked forward to the door of the Promise Bookstore.

Knock Knock Knock –

He knocked lightly on the door, causing a commotion to resound in the first-floor room.

"Why is it again......"

Promise's voice came out with a not very good temper, and soon, he opened the door.

"I'll tell you...... Well? ”

With the help of the lamp that Bai Ge had repaired some time ago, he saw the appearance of the opposite side clearly.

If Bai Ge was here, he would definitely call out "Lao Huo" in surprise.

Yes, this person is Huo Zheng from Aimei Plastic Surgery Hospital.

"Why are you here?"

Xu Yu was not too surprised, but he was very familiar with Lao Huo.

"Why, can't you come and see an old friend?"

Lao Huo carried a plastic bag, which contained beer, sauced beef, peanuts and other snacks.

"We haven't seen each other in five years since then, haven't we?"

Hearing Lao Huo's words, Xu Yue's eyes dimmed for a moment, but they quickly regained their brilliance.

“...... Come in, it's cold outside. ”

...

...

"What happened?"

Two minutes later, when Chen Chuchuan came to the monitoring room on the second floor of the exhibition hall, all the police officers got out of the way.

This gave him the first glimpse of the surveillance camera in the middle.

That's surveillance footage from Darmstadt's vault.

On the screen, a figure in a black dress, a gray shirt, a red tie, and a half-height silk top hat can be seen walking in the vault.

He lifted the monocle in his right eye, as if he was in a state of distress over what to take.

THERE'S NO DOUBT THAT IT'S THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER!

"How did he get in?"

Chen Chuchuan's heart sank, during this period, he did not receive any relevant sighting reports at all, how did the strange thief JOKER enter the vault.

And wasn't he supposed to steal the "Starry Night" at the banquet scene, why did he go into the vault?

"No, I don't know...... He seems to have appeared there out of nowhere......"

A police officer in charge of surveillance replied.

"What about the vault and warehouse guards, all killed?"

CHEN CHUCHUAN ASKED CASUALLY WHILE THINKING ABOUT COUNTERMEASURES, THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER CAN SNEAK INTO IT SO LEISURELY, IT MUST SOLVE ALL THE GUARDS.

"No...... They claim that everything is fine. ”

Another police officer replied tremblingly, making Chen Chuchuan's actions stagnant.

"What do you say?!!"

He suddenly thought of several possibilities and commanded.

"You two stay here to continue monitoring, connect the video to my mobile phone, you two, go check if our monitoring line has been hacked, Xu Changjian, you and I go to the warehouse and inform the brothers in the banquet hall, from now on, no one else can leave the banquet hall unless our people ask for it."

Chen Chuchuan trotted towards the warehouse after speaking, he picked up his mobile phone, received the signal from the monitoring room, and saw that the strange thief JOKER in the surveillance video seemed to have finally decided on his goal, he opened a safe at random, because the camera was blocked, he couldn't see what he took out, but he could see that the strange thief JOKER carefully put a playing card into the safe with a slightly neurotic action.

THEN, JOKER CLOSED THE DOOR TO THE SAFE, PRESSED HIS CHEST AGAINST THE SECURITY CAMERA, AND MADE A SLIGHTLY POMPOUS SALUTE.

Bang –

At this time, there was a sudden boom beside him, and a puff of white smoke came out, and when the smoke cleared, only a white pigeon was left in place, looking around, and then flew away and disappeared into the monitor.

“！！？”

Seeing this scene, Xu Changjian, a police officer on the side, was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.

"How did he do it, he really became a pigeon???"

Xu Changjian thought of the content of the notice letter, especially the sentence "I will turn into a white pigeon" that has not yet been explained, originally he thought it would be a symbolic meaning or something, but he didn't expect that it was really literal?

"Hehe, how can a person become a pigeon."

Chen Chuchuan laughed, and the police officer's communication came from the earphones.

"Boss, there are indeed traces of the line monitoring here being connected!"

At this moment, Chen Chuchuan suddenly understood the principle.

After the last Blue Heart theft, he went to check a lot of relevant information, and also tried to analyze the modus operandi of the monster thief JOKER from the perspective of criminal psychology.

It can be seen that although he is confident and crazy on the surface, he is actually extremely cautious.

First of all, if he really hacked into the vault, he would never be caught on surveillance cameras so easily.

This means this, the scene that Chen Chuchuan saw just now was what the monster thief JOKER wanted him to see!

THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER WANTED CHEN CHUCHUAN TO KNOW THAT HE WAS IN THE VAULT.

But that's not the case.

Chen Chuchuan thinks that the scene he saw the strange thief JOKER stealing is an illusion!

This is the first step in the magic trick, replacing reality with fiction!

THE THIEF JOKER MAY HAVE CREATED A SIMILAR VAULT, PERFORMED THE SCENE IN IT, RECORDED IT, AND THEN REPLACED THE POLICE SURVEILLANCE FOOTAGE BY HACKING INTO THE SURVEILLANCE LINE, BUT IN FACT, THE THIEF JOKER DID NOT ENTER THE REAL VAULT AT ALL.

After seeing this false surveillance picture, whether it was Chen Chuchuan or Darmstadt, the first instinct must be that the vault had been stolen, and the next action was to check the status of the vault.

THEN THE NEXT STEP IS NATURALLY TO OPEN THE DOOR OF THE VAULT, ENTER IT, OPEN THE SAFE STOLEN BY THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER, AND CONFIRM THE CONTENTS INSIDE.

IN THIS WAY, THE THIEF JOKER EFFORTLESSLY GOT DARMSTADT TO OPEN ALL THE INSURANCES HIMSELF.

At that time, the monster thief JOKER, who was mixed with the police, could take advantage of the chaos and steal other treasures openly.

This is the second step of the magic trick, stealing the day.

As for the last step to turn decay into magic, that is, the escape route of the monster thief JOKER, I am afraid that after disguising himself as a policeman, he took the opportunity to search and quietly left with the treasure.

IN THIS WAY, DARMSTADT IS EQUIVALENT TO HANDING OVER THE COLLECTION TO THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER.

Very subtle means.

Chen Chuchuan smiled.

It's a pity that he has seen through it.

He came to the door of the warehouse, ordered some police forces to be brought over, surrounded the place, and then walked into the warehouse.

All the policemen were on standby, armed with non-lethal stun batons, guns filled with rubber bullets, and blast shields, and surrounded the vault.

Chen Chuchuan did not rush to ask people to find Darmstadt to open the vault, but spoke.

"I THINK JOKER, THE THIEF, IS AMONG US."

In the midst of a confused noise, he briefly analyzed his thoughts, kept observing the others, and then began the confirmation process.

Since the police know each other, the confirmation job is as simple as asking about something that only two people know, or some details.

However, ten minutes later, Chen Chuchuan's expression was a little distorted.

These are his own subordinates, real cops, and the thief JOKER is not here.

Wait, isn't it...... Is he really in the vault?

Everything just now, including the traces of intrusion monitoring, was faked, in order to make myself think of the second layer, thinking that everything I had just seen was false???

While checking on his teammates, the thief JOKER somehow escaped from the vault?

He did all this to buy time?

Chen Chuchuan's heart suddenly sank.

At this time, Darmstadt came to his vault under the leadership of three policemen, which was Chen Chuchuan's order, at least three people should act together and maintain communication regularly.

AFTER CHECKING DARMSTADT TO MAKE SURE THE COLLECTOR WASN'T IN THE GUISE OF THE ROGUE JOKER, HE WATCHED WARILY AS HE OPENED THE THREE LOCKS AND OPENED THE DOOR TO THE VAULT.

THERE WERE NO JOKERS OR PIGEONS, JUST A FEW SAFES FIXED AGAINST THE WALLS.

CHEN CHUCHUAN RECOGNIZED THE ONE OPENED BY THE MONSTER THIEF JOKER AND MOTIONED TO DARMSTADT TO OPEN IT.

The collector, with a slightly solemn face, turned the combination lock and opened the door of the safe.

Puff puff –

At this time, the sound of wings fluttering sounded, and everyone subconsciously looked up slightly, only to see a pigeon flying in from nowhere, hovering over the warehouse, and soon flew out of the ventilation window.

In this process, Chen Chuchuan only lost his mind for a moment, but his attention was still focused on the safe in front of Darmstadt, and he knew very well that if the monster thief JOKER wanted to attack, now was the best time!

However, when Chen Chuchuan saw the situation inside the safe clearly, his heart set off a lot of waves.

Because the safe that was opened under Chen Chuchuan's nose, the safe that no one had ever approached, was empty at the moment.

No, it's not empty.

At the bottom of the safe, there was a playing card.

Painted with a clown card wearing a half-height politeness and a radial mask, grinning the corners of his mouth and showing a flamboyant smile and strange thief!
