"He Liping?"

"Chen Feng!"

That person was none other than Chen Feng, a monk from the Xuanqing Sect who had made a bet with the mustache before! It turns out that this ancient wind pavilion is an antique shop opened by Xuanqing Gate!

Chen Feng's face darkened, and he seemed to remember the gamble that made him lose face. He said coldly, "What do you want to do here?" ”

The mustache also sneered at this time, threw the snuffbox to Chen Feng, and said, "This thing was sold from your store, what do you say we are doing here?" ”

When Chen Feng saw it, he was really taken aback, and turned his head to ask the store manager: "What's going on?" ”

Seeing that we actually knew Chen Feng, the store manager didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly replied: "This snuff bottle was indeed sold by us a week ago, or did I handle it!" ”

"Sold to whom?"

"Master Hong!"

Chen Feng suddenly frowned. He hesitated for a moment, but still said to us: "There are many people here, it is inconvenient to talk, you can come with me to the back to talk in detail first!" ”

The mustache was not afraid at all, and before Chen Feng could lead the way, he opened the curtain and walked in, and I hurried to follow. Behind the façade of the Ancient Pavilion is also the same as the mustachio's antique shop, with a reception room with high-end sofas and coffee tables, specially used to receive distinguished guests and conduct large transactions.

After Chen Feng invited us to sit down, he first asked tentatively: "You are commissioned by Boss Hong."

"That's right!"

"What does Boss Hong mean......"

The mustache pretended to be and said, "Humph! Because of this snuffbox, Boss Hong is now admitted to the ICU ward, how do you think this matter should be solved? ”

Chen Feng seemed to be frightened by the mustache, his posture was very low, and he quickly explained: "The antiques sold from us have all been inspected, and it stands to reason that there is no such heavy resentment left!" ”

"Chen Feng! The real evidence is here, and you still want to deny it? The mustache continued to press.

"You can't say that! If it is discovered during the transaction on the spot, it is naturally our responsibility. It seems that Chen Feng is also an old fritter, so he quickly stabilized his position and argued, "Lao He, you are also in this business." As soon as the goods are sold, they are not responsible! Besides, the snuffbox has been sold from us for a week, and we don't know what the buyer is doing with it! ”

"Are you trying to shirk your responsibilities?"

"We will take the responsibility that we bear, but don't think about just relying on this thing to make a fuss with us!"

The mustache saw that Chen Feng had a hard mouth, and he couldn't do anything about him at once. So, he changed his attitude and softened: "Human life is at stake!" Even if you don't want to admit that there was a problem when the thing was sold, you should at least tell us where you got it? ”

"I'm sorry, I can't say that!" Chen Feng still refused to let go.

Now the mustache was about to get angry again, and both eyes were wide, and he exclaimed, "Good, good! Since you Xuanqingmen want to deny it or not, I will take this snuffbox to the Maoshan Dao Association and let them comment on Boss Hong! ”

Chen Feng listened to the mustache's "intimidation", and his attitude had to soften again, and he hurriedly said: "That's it!" Since such a big thing has happened, it is our responsibility as a store to do something. Lao He, I'll also check it for you here, if there is a problem with this thing when it is indeed received, I will track it down to the end and give you an explanation! That's all right, right? ”

When the mustache heard Chen Feng say this, although he was still a little dissatisfied, he also felt helpless. He said, "Okay, I'll believe you this time!" Let's go! ”

I followed the mustache out of the Ancient Wind Pavilion, and asked the mustache in a low voice, "Do you really believe him?" ”

"Although Chen Feng has had a holiday with me, he still does things according to his word." The mustache said, "You see that he lost the bet last time, and he immediately patted his ass and left, not verbose at all." ”

"So what do we do next? Just stupidly waiting for news from him? ”

The mustache thought for a while and said to me, "What Chen Feng said just now is not completely unreasonable. We don't know if this snuffbox Boss Hong has been with him since he bought it. Now that he's in the ICU again, he can't ask if he wants to! ”

"You can go and ask his wife!" I reminded.

"Yes!" The mustache clapped his hands and exclaimed, "I haven't seen his wife since I went to his house last time, so let's go and ask now!" ”

When I went to Mr. Hong's house, it was just dark. The butler who opened the door remembered the mustache and took us straight in. Boss Hong's wife is a fat woman with a mediocre appearance, but she is full of extravagance. Because it was the first time they met, the mustache explained the situation to her first, saying that we were invited to investigate before Boss Hong was hospitalized.

The housekeeper also verified on the side: "Yes, this Daoist He was invited by Master Hong." So, Boss Hong's wife invited us to sit down and talk.

The mustache asked politely, "Sister-in-law, why didn't I see you last time I came?" ”

"I'm going back to my parents' house!" Sister-in-law Hong's face was a little unpleasant, but fortunately, it shouldn't be aimed at us, "Hmph! If I hadn't heard that he was hospitalized, I wouldn't have wanted to come back! ”

It seems that the relationship between Boss Hong and Sister-in-law Hong is not very good!

The mustache smiled awkwardly, and didn't dare to ask them more about their housework. He took out the snuffbox and asked Sister-in-law Hong, "Has my sister-in-law seen this thing?" ”

It's good that Sister-in-law Hong didn't look at it, but after taking a look, she was even more angry! She said with a dark face: "Why haven't you seen it?" After he bought it, he took it with him every day, and when he was idle, he took it out to play! Later, I lost it and wronged me, suspecting that I was hiding! Hum! He was looking for trouble! Disgusted with me! ”

"Lost?" Both the mustache and I were a little surprised.

"Not really! Two days after he bought it, he couldn't figure it out himself, and then he looked everywhere and scolded me for hiding his things! I went back to my parents' house two days ago in a fit of rage! ”

"And how did you find it?"

"I heard it was found in his office!"

"Boss Hong still has an office?" The mustache and I were even more surprised. "Where?"

"Humph! It is said to be an office, but it is actually a nest of kink! Gambling nest! Sister-in-law Hong huffed angrily, and the more she spoke, the more excited she became, "I don't know where it is, only his gang of horses and the vixen know!" ”

"Which vixen?"

"Which one else? Isn't it the wife with strong curly hair! ”

"You know that, too?"

"Who doesn't know?" Sister-in-law Hong gritted her teeth and said, "This couple is really cheap!" One is a horse boy for others, the other is a mistress for others, a nest of snakes and rats! I really don't even want my face! ”

Sister-in-law Hong's anger has been completely ignited, and she doesn't care if we have anything to do with it, so she scolds one after another. Although Sister-in-law Hong is not scolding us, it is not a pleasant thing to sit and listen to her scolding. And it is estimated that Sister-in-law Hong's knowledge of this matter is here, and she can't ask anything more. So the mustache quickly asked her for the phone number of the horse boy Curly Strong, and then pulled me to say goodbye and leave.

When the mustache left Hong's house, he called Curly Maoqiang, but what he heard was "The number you dialed is down"! At this time, it was already too late, and the mustache had no choice but to let me go back first, saying that he would find a way to find the whereabouts of the curly-haired strong through the channels of the Daomen.

Early the next morning, Mustache called and said that he had found Curly Qiang's whereabouts. He has now switched to another boss, and the new boss is the opponent You Boss who has been competing with Boss Hong for earthworks before! This can't help but increase our suspicion of curly hair.

I'm only halfway through the investigation, so I can't just give up halfway. So, I had to ask the owner of the cake shop for half a day off, followed the mustache to a construction site under construction, and found Curly Maoqiang, who was in charge of supervising the work. Curly Hair Qiang looked at us very warily, I don't understand what we want to do when we come to him?

The mustache first resorted to the trick of deceiving people as usual, and first sneered and said: "Curly hair, your boss is not dead yet!" Are you in such a hurry to change jobs? ”

"What's the matter with you? Who are you? Curly Mao Qiang became angry when he heard it, pretending to be a gangster's signature drag.

The mustache took out a card from his pocket and lit it up in front of Curly Qiang. I've seen him take out that fake police officer card before, and this guy is also bold enough, and he dares to take out this kind of thing everywhere to bluff people!

"We're here to investigate the case of Boss Hong being poisoned!" The mustache said to Curly Fur in a serious manner, and then quickly put away the "police officer card".

"Boss Hong was poisoned?" Curly Qiang looked surprised.

"We can't tell you the details of the case. The purpose of our search for you is to ask if there is any conflict between you and Boss Hong? The mustache continued to flicker, "Let's tell me why you want to change the boss first, right?" ”

Curly Mao Qiang was a little helpless, and scolded to himself: "I knew that this thing would always be unclean!" What an X! ”

"What's the matter?"

"It's not because of that!"

"Sister Hong, you said?" Sister Hong is Curly-haired's wife, and that's what the mustache calls her on the relationship chart.

"Who else but her?" Curly said hatefully, "When I met her, she was just a 'chicken'!" It was I who didn't dislike her, so I let her follow me! I didn't expect her to be coquettish, and when she saw that Boss Hong was richer than me, she wanted to dump me and go with Boss Hong! I can't even hold my head up in front of the other brothers! This woman is so cheap! ”

Curly Hair Qiang said as he spoke, and pointed to his hair and said: "It turns out that people on the road call me Curly Hair Qiang, but now others call me 'Green Hair Qiang'!" Do you say I'm aggrieved or not? ”

When he said that, I really thought he had a little green on his head. I wanted to laugh a little, but I held back my breath and continued to ask him, "That's why you decided to change bosses?" ”

"Not really! Originally, I wanted to leave a long time ago, but I couldn't get in the way of Boss Hong's face. Changing bosses casually is to be despised, but I still want to mix up on this road! ”

"But Boss Hong isn't dead yet!"

"Hmph, now that he's sick like that, it's probably a question of whether he can survive or not!" Curly Hair Qiang also began to sneer, a little gloating, "And don't talk about me, the group of guys who originally followed him are now almost running away!" To be the boss on the road, you don't rely on hard fists, but on money! Rich people will follow you to get rich, no money? It's nice not to step on you in reverse! ”

"What about your wife?"

"Don't mention that slut! I didn't register with her, not my wife! ”

"Okay, what about Sister Hong?"

"She ran away too! I went with another big boss! ”

"Which big boss?"

"Lai Dong!"

"Lai Dong?" The mustache was more familiar with these people than me, and when he heard it, he called out in surprise, "You are talking about the Lai Dong who lost one million to Boss Hong at the gambling table some time ago?" ”

"That's right, it's him!" Curly Mao Qiang confirmed, and then continued to sneer: "One million is nothing to Lai Dong, and a woman who can abduct Boss Hong is enough to relieve his anger!" ”

Mustache and I couldn't help but glance at each other when we heard this, and we both felt that this matter was really not simple. At this point in the investigation, several important people on the relationship chart were involved.

The mustache thought about it, and then took out the snuffbox to ask Mao Qiang: "Finally, I ask you a little thing, have you ever seen this snuffbox of Boss Hong?" Have you ever lost it? ”

Curly Hair Qiang looked at the snuffbox carefully, nodded and said, "I've seen this thing, and I've lost it, didn't I find it later?" ”

"I want to ask how did I find it at that time?"

Curly Maoqiang's face was not very good, and he said disdainfully: "Sister Hong found it!" If you want to know the specifics, just ask that slut! ”

"Then you give me her contact information."

I finished talking to the mustache and left the construction site. As we walked, we discussed the "facts of the case":

"Curly Maoqiang was greened by Boss Hong, so he switched to Boss You's men; And his wife, Sister Hong, also fell in love with the new financier, but it was Lai Dong who lost one million! This pentagonal relationship is really complicated! ”

"There is also this snuff bottle, Boss Hong said that he was lost by Sister-in-law Hong before he got sick; Sister-in-law Hong said that it was lost by Boss Hong in the office, so let's go to the questionnaire Mao Qiang; Curly Mao Qiang pulled Sister Hong again, saying that she found it. Just by turning around in such a circle, at least four people may have touched a snuffbox! ”

"Which link do you say is more suspicious?"

"It's hard to say...... Maybe this snuffbox has been dropped? ”

"Nope! It's hard to find an identical snuffbox, and if there were a couple, it would be worth at least twice as much! Xiao Jiuhe wouldn't be so willing to spend his blood! ”

"The most likely situation is that Xiao Jiuhe found an inner ghost among the people around Boss Hong and stole the snuffbox. After Xiao Jiuhe put the anointed ghost in, he asked this person to secretly return it! ”

"I think it's the most likely!"

"If that's the case, Sister Hong, who finally found this snuffbox, will be the most suspicious!"

"Whether it's true or not, just find her and ask!"
