Chapter 340: Winning or Not Succeeding
The hunters of the North Star, hurriedly opening the door of the secret room.
The hunter in the secret room was stunned and said, "Elimination! Gone! One of the boxes is missing. ”
The hunter hurriedly opened the remaining three boxes and checked them, and sure enough, the remaining boxes were filled with fakes.
Goethe was not too busy checking the secret room, he rushed to the door, grabbed Duchamp's wrist, and asked in a loud voice: "Styry, why are you at the door?" ”
Duchamp's mental power was busy checking where the silver dot was, when he saw the silver dot disappear from this room and enter the rest room next door, where he was disturbed by Goethe and suddenly disappeared.
He jumped to his feet in a hurry: "Let go, I just walked over from the lounge after greeting Irina." ”
Goethe didn't believe it, and said in a loud voice: "You said the same thing just now, didn't you enter the treasure room?" How is it here again. ”
Duchamp only felt that his Heavenly Spirit Gai had been slashed by thunder.
"I obviously turned back and walked to the door after I received Irina, who did you meet just now, and did you have the code agreed with us?"
Goethe suddenly understood, and said sneeringly: "Just now you came in and said that you had delayed a delay to greet Miss Irina, and I saw that you spoke in a completely correct tone, and there was no right code, could it be him!" ”
Duchamp was half angry, and the strange thief turned into his appearance, went directly into the treasure room, and left with the box in a big way.
He wondered suspiciously, could it be that the thief really recognized him, so he deliberately changed into his appearance to retaliate? When I was suspicious.
Monsieur Fontaine, introduced by Reem III, seemed to have identified the location of the thief, and he beckoned to his companion and shouted, "He has not left this house, he is in the crowd next door." ”
A group of people rushed into the lounge and surrounded the guests. Monsieur Fontaine took an object, scanned it incessantly, and finally, decadently said to his companion, "His breath is completely gone!" ”
Duchamp had expected this to be the result, and before Fontaine entered the house, the silver dots on the minimap were gone.
He couldn't help but secretly snort, if Monster Thief B was so easy to catch, then he wouldn't be Monster Thief B.
He turned to Goethe, who was still a little emotionally unstable, and said, "Young man, I have seen it for a long time!" ”
Goethe let out a sigh of relief and whispered, "Fortunately, I listened to you and prepared an extra hand." ”
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the large stack of jewels that had been placed next to the auction table purely for window dressing. Thief B didn't even look at the boxes just now.
"Hurry up and see if it's still there." Goethe said nervously, walked towards the stack of jewels, pulled out the middle and bottom chest, and opened it.
When he saw the contents of the box, Goethe was dizzy.
The box is full of fakes.
In full view, how did the thief remove the crate that was crushed underneath?
"Calm down, all that's lost is the bait box." Duchamp pressed hard against Goethe's back and whispered in his ear.
"What?" Goethe woke up from his momentary confusion with a hint of surprise and luck in his voice: "It was the bait that was taken away, but what about the whole box that was originally placed here?" ”
"Because I still didn't think it was safe enough, in the early hours of the morning, I changed it to another place."
"Great, but where do you put it?"
"It's still in this hall, but no one can guess."
Duchamp looked at the chaotic scene in the hall, sneered, walked towards the female performer who was still playing professionally, and bowed deeply: "Thank you very much for your composure, the auction is about to start, you don't have to play anymore." ”
The female performer smiled, the necklace around her neck glistening: "No thanks. It should be my thank you for your jewelry. ”
Duchamp uncovered the piano bench in front of the piano, reached in, took out a heavy jewelry box from it, put it on the piano bench, opened a gap, and the jewels inside suddenly leaked out.
The detective on the side suddenly realized and said loudly: "Perfect plan!" ”
Even if Thief B could pretend to be anyone, he wouldn't be able to instantly drop the female performer who was playing. As long as the music doesn't stop, he doesn't have a chance to do it.
What's more, he didn't expect things to be in this place at all.
Goethe's heart was pounding, he didn't expect that things would really be as Duchamp foresaw, and if there was no such final step, Polaris Defense would have become a joke in the industry today.
Duchamp said to Mr. Lincoln, who was in a state of panic and speculation: "Everything is ready, please announce that the auction has begun as scheduled, rest assured, it is all right now." ”
Mr. Lincoln had not yet recovered, and said in amazement, "Is it really okay?" ”
Duchamp barely pulled out a smile: "It's really okay, he's gone, the things are still there, and the auction can start as scheduled." ”
Mr. Lincoln was still apprehensive, but he knew he couldn't afford to delay any longer. He was full of luck and loudly announced to the guests crowded at the door to watch the excitement: "Girls, gentlemen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting!" The site of the Patek Philippe Magic Jewelry Auction is ready, and now we invite everyone to enter the auction room and take their seats. ”
Mr. Lincoln turned around and bowed deeply to Reem III, Irina and the others on the side: "Distinguished guests, please come with me." ”
Mr. Fontaine's face was gloomy, and he held the distinctive scanner and stared at everyone who came out of the lounge, as if trying to find out who was the Monster Thief B.
Reem III secretly took out a handkerchief, wiped the fine sweat oozing from his head, and said to himself: "What a terrible life to be! ”
Mr. Yorkwarts squeezed through the crowd, and when he saw Reem III's gaffe, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and comforted him, saying, "It's a bit chaotic, but in the end there is no big mess, is it?" ”
After the auctioneer and the staff were ready, they took a note from Goethe, looked at it, and said:
"Thank you for coming to the 1197 Patek Philippe Magic Jewelry Auction, and I am sure that many of the guests in attendance participated in last year's auction and were able to auction their favorite magical jewels with incredible properties.
As we all know, the jewelry auctioned last year caused a sensation in the imperial capital, and many jewelry was later transferred between private individuals for a higher price, so more celebrities and celebrities came to participate in the auction this year.
After a year of careful preparation, Patek Philippe Magic Jewellery hereby announces that after a year of meticulous preparation, this year's jewellery is of a higher quality grade than last year's lot, and has a better effect on human health and health.
I would like to announce that a total of 160 magical jewels will be auctioned today, of which about a quarter are wind jewels that promote lightness of the body, one-sixth are earth jewels that increase human physique, about half are water jewels that promote human health and youth, and the rest are fire jewels that increase human strength and vitality.
Each piece of jewelry is endowed with a positive effect on a certain aspect of the human body, corresponding to the needs of people with different physical conditions. The principle of buying magic jewelry is not to ask for the most expensive, but to buy the right one, please buy and bid according to your own needs. ”
The people in the audience who knew that Monster Thief B had already come to patronize it, with all kinds of schadenfreude and excitement, heard the host say that there were still 160 pieces of jewelry available for auction, and thought in amazement: "Could it be that Monster Thief B just took away just an empty box, by the way, it must be so." ”
On the stage, the auctioneer shouted: "Next, we invite the most authoritative jewel master of the empire, King Reem III, and Mr. Yorkwards, a discerning art connoisseur, to come to the stage as the appraisers of the jewels we are auctioning today." ”
The audience applauded, and the two master appraisers came to the stage again and began the auction process.
Duchamp retracted into the chamber again, clutching the box and waiting until the auction to sell off a jewel before handing the next jewel to the bodyguard, who then handed it out. His detection system was fully open, suppressing the small area near the secret room, ready to receive the box into the parcel space as soon as Thief B appeared.
But until night comes, when the auction ends, Thief B does not reappear.
After the auction was over, and when the guests were almost gone, Officer Holbutch closed the door and asked the doubts in his heart:
"Mr. Worcester, can you explain to me now how the day's jewels were recovered, or if Thief B didn't succeed at all?"
Goethe had regained his composure and explained the whole plan to Officer Holbucci and Mr. Fontaine.
"The lost jewels were only a small amount, and we expected from the beginning that the secret room would not be able to prevent the thief B at all, so we divided the jewels into three whole parts.
The first part, pretending to be in a secret room, is actually a fake. When the thief takes the gem, he will most likely examine it for a short time and find that he has not succeeded.
Then, when he returned to the scene, it was easy to spot the oddities in the pile of jewelry boxes piled up at the door. In that pile of boxes, we put 10 pieces of jewelry. For a short period of time, it is unlikely that the thieves will have enough time to inspect again.
And the real goods are placed in the piano bench, so that the pianist sits on it and plays all the time. Even if the thief found out that the box of jewels at the door of the hall was incomplete again, it was too late for him to steal the third box of jewels. ”
All the people in the room suddenly realized, and Officer Holbuch was relieved, and then he became distressed again, and said, "In this case, should this be considered a mistake by Monster Thief B, or should it be counted as a miss?" ”
