Chapter 182: The Neglected
The child's mother disagreed.
"I'll admit that he has a knack for appreciating paintings, but it's a mirror!"
The father who drove the car could also understand his wife's doubts and still patiently explained.
"Honey, you don't know, although Kirsby doesn't know the patterns around the mirror, he knows a lot about materials. ”
Speaking of which, he couldn't help but look at the box in the rearview mirror, and even lowered his voice.
"He has verified it in private, this mirror, the material is not clear at all, the surrounding material is not conventional metal, nor is it a common stone, and the temperature never changes in what environment, and the mirror is not glass at all, nor metal, and the hardness is not low!"
The child's father was so excited that he swallowed.
"Honey, do you know what that means?"
The woman in the back seat also came back to her senses, and this time she realized that the mirror seemed to be very mysterious.
"Usually the transparent material with high hardness is a gemstone in nature, which means that the mirror surface of the mirror is likely to be polished by an unknown gemstone, and the frame may also be a meteorite material, or it is also a rough gemstone!"
"In Kerby's words, if it is a gemstone surface, it can be polished so smooth and smooth, that is, this craftsmanship is far beyond the shopping value. ”
The atmosphere in the car was warm, and the child's mother began to feel the value of the mirror.
In fact, the mirror attracted her very much just now, but she was still distressed by two hundred euros.
"Actually, this time it was also me and Kirsby who paid together, but he was not easy to do as an employee of the store, so he deliberately gave the seller a low price valuation first, and then asked me to buy it, so that the store owner can only see a mirror on the books, but he doesn't know what's going on!"
"Honey, you are so shrewd!"
"Of course, Kerby and I have thought about doing this before, but we didn't have the right opportunity, and this time it was really smooth!"
The little girl sitting next to her mother listened for a long time, and suddenly a sentence came.
"Isn't it illegal to do this, Dad?"
"Well, Luna, it's not illegal for your dad to do this, because he just bought an item in the store normally, but he has a good eye for the potential value of the item. ”
"Oh, what about Uncle Kerby?"
"His words, well, are at best a valuation error, and they don't count!"
The child's father looked back and added.
。。。
On a shopping street in the west of Paris, there is a small pawn and consignment shop called Angel Feathers.
The pawnbroking industry in France is quite developed and is already one of the six types of credit institutions authorized by the government, and the French enter the pawnshop like entering the bank to make short-term loans, and can bargain.
Normally, it is unlikely that anyone will die, but there are always exceptions, such as the man a few days ago.
I didn't come to redeem my own things when it expired.
Kirsby is a neat middle-aged uncle, who is wiping a porcelain bowl at this time, and his heart is thinking about the mirror that he went back with his friends.
He was more artistic, and his style was so different that he couldn't ignore its beauty.
The seller wanted to die when he came to the export, but their store had a rule that it was not allowed to buy directly, and there must be a pawn period, so Kirsby first casually quoted a low price, but he didn't expect people to agree, and he didn't come overdue.
It also happened that the boss went on vacation, and although there were three employees in the store, he was the store manager, so the natural opportunity must have been won.
Just as he was thinking about the mirror, two policemen suddenly came to the door, saw Kirsby with the store manager's sign, and walked towards him.
The latter's heart trembled when he saw the policeman.
It didn't happen so quickly, did it? It's not illegal! French pawnshops could have bargained with each other!
"Hello, may I ask if anyone in your store has seen this gentleman?"
The police showed a photo of the seller, but the photo was more energetic, not as dazed and emaciated as that day.
There's surveillance in the store, so you can't admit it if you want to, and Kirsby is also a calm and rational type.
Tell yourself not to think about it, then take the picture from the police and take a closer look.
"Show your police ID, gentlemen. ”
This was a normal request, and the two officers took out their documents and showed them to Kirsby, who only revealed the client's information when he saw them.
"I've seen this person, he came to our shop a few days ago to pawn something, but he didn't come to redeem it when it expired. ”
One of the policemen's eyes lit up.
"What did he do, and did he do anything special?"
Kirsby handed the photo back.
"No, he was a three-man thing, and he wanted to die when he opened his mouth, but because of the regulations, he still gave him a job, but it was the shortest term. ”
Moving the laptop to the side, Kerby looked for information.
"Here, he's got a watch, a necklace, and a handicraft mirror, and because it's dead, we've started selling it at a price. ”
"Wait a minute, I'll check if the things are still there, oh, the watch and necklace are worth a lot, no one has bought it yet, that handicraft has been bought, do you need me to bring the watch and necklace over to you to see?"
One of the officers nodded in gratitude.
"Okay, let's take a look. ”
Within two minutes, another clerk brought something, a gold watch and a platinum necklace.
The police were also led into the inner hall.
However, the two police officers just took a look, and did not mean to take away the evidence, and by the way, they also looked at the store surveillance at that time.
"May I ask the two police officers, what happened? Is that customer's goods stolen goods, do you need me to recover them?"
The younger policeman waved at him and smiled.
"No, no, it's the guy who died in a hotel, and he died... Anyway, the possibility of his killing has not been ruled out, so we have been ordered to investigate his recent whereabouts, in addition to you, he has recently sold a lot of things, and it seems that he is raising money. ”
"Oh God!"
On the surface, I sighed.
Kirsby breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seemed that it was really none of his business.
"Alright, thank you for your cooperation, excuse me. ”
The two policemen got out of the shop and got into the car and left.
Seeing them leave, the three employees of the store discussed a few words and went to work.
However, although Kirsby felt that he was fine, he always felt uneasy, and he didn't know if it was because he was involved with a dead person.
But there is no worry about the mirror, or the idea of not being able to worry about it, as if the thought will turn around automatically.
。。。
Brown and his twin brother followed the private car far away to a residential area on the outskirts of Paris, surrounded by old villas.
Their car stopped a little further away at the intersection and watched as a family of three entered the house with the bits and pieces in the car.
"These three should be humans, and they don't feel like they're parasitic or invading their bodies, and they seem to be normal in the car. ”
Tsai carefully looked at the family of three and the things they were carrying, and didn't feel anything unusual at all.
What's even more bizarre is that when the family enters the house, the car doesn't have the feeling it had just now.
Brown frowned.
"Could it be that the three of us can still sense the wrong thing together?"
"Let's stay here for one night and see!"
"Hmm!"
To put it bluntly, the three of them also understand that they are no longer ordinary people, just like the purpose of the dawn, and the intuitive things cannot be ignored.
That night, the mirror was placed at the head of the couple's bed.
Before going to bed, they also watched it carefully, and the more they looked at it, the more they liked it, and they felt that even if the potential value was excluded, the sale was worth it.
Mrs. Ruby also took a photo of the mirror and secretly posted it on the circle of friends of her eChat account to show off, and received dozens of likes in two minutes.
But it's beautiful before bed, but it's not wonderful after bed.
The family of three all had nightmares that night, and the horror of not waking up in the nightmare did not dissipate until they woke up in the morning.
Mr. Ruby went to wash up, and as is customary, the first thing Mrs. Ruby did when she got up was to weigh herself.
She stood on the electronic scale, and when she saw the data, her originally sluggish spirit suddenly lifted.
"68 kg, oh my gosh, honey, I've lost weight haha, a full kilogram lighter!"
