Chapter 340: Premeditated
With Zheng Li's support, I agreed: "Okay, so how do you want to play now?" You said. ”
He lowered his gaze, looked at his palm, and pretended to think for a moment before saying to me, "Since the rules of the game are up to me, then let me give you pixels, and you can find the answer to the puzzle." Do you have the key to my house? In my house, there is a clue. ”
All of a sudden, it felt as if everything was on his budget.
But anyway, there were few clues, so we agreed.
After Zheng Li and I left here together, we took the key together and came to Long Zhan's house.
As soon as we entered the house, the two of us split up to look for clues.
But after searching for a long time, we didn't find any clues from Long Zhan.
After the meeting in the living room, I asked Zheng Li, "Have you found a clue?" ”
Zheng Li shook her head secretly and said in a deep voice, "I didn't find anything." ”
I couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, thinking to myself that it wasn't that simple. But I also think that according to Long Zhan's arrogant character, he won't deliberately play us a trick.
So I frowned secretly, thinking that we must have not found out.
Eventually, I searched the room again.
I found the bathroom until I found a line on the locker: No. 81 Qidong Road.
This should be an address.
But I'm not sure if this address has anything to do with the Tie Zhe we're looking for.
So I asked Zheng Li to help me take a look.
As a result, Zheng Li couldn't see why, so we decided to ignore 3721 for the time being, anyway, let's go to this address to have a look first.
When we arrived at this address, we found out that it was an antique shop.
Of course, we are not connoisseurs of antiques, and we don't know if these are fakes.
The boss is an old man, probably eighty years old! But seeing that he was still in good spirits!
When he first saw us, he thought we were going to buy something, so he greeted us with a smile. Then he knew that we were here to investigate the case, and his face immediately sank.
We can understand that, too.
However, the case still needs to be investigated, so I asked, "Sir, did anyone leave anything for you before?" ”
Hearing me ask, he immediately said unhappily: "No, no, no, how can anyone leave anything for me?" I'm alone, I don't even have children, where will anyone leave anything? You're looking for the wrong person. ”
With that, he put on a look of asking us to get out of here.
Zheng Li and I were quite helpless after watching it, but we couldn't say anything.
Just as we were about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Wait a minute, there seems to be a young man a while ago who handed me a box." It was last month, and it was said that someone would come to pick it up next month. Isn't it you? ”
If there is a clue, how can we let it go?
I then asked, "What kind of box?" ”
I saw that the old man carefully removed the box from a cabinet. But the box doesn't have a key, it's a password box.
We didn't know, so after paying the guarantee, we returned to the police station with the box.
As soon as he saw this box, Long Zhan smiled. That smile was so deep that it made me feel a little perverted.
I couldn't help frowning and asked in surprise, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Long Zhan gasped deeply, then shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just happy." I can't imagine that you have been able to come this far in such a short period of time, and it seems that you have a hope of looking for Tie Zhe. ”
"What's the password?" Zheng Li asked solemnly.
Long Zhan raised his eyes, glanced at her lightly, and said, "If you want to know the password, then you have to find it yourself." I'm just one in charge of guiding the way, and as for such a key clue, you still need to find it yourself. ”
It seems that this box was indeed given to the boss by him.
I suddenly felt that he really could be the real murderer, and everything seemed to be under his control. Otherwise, how could he have handed over this box directly to that boss a month ago?
Thinking of this, in order to save people, I stood up directly and said, "I smashed him and it was all right." ”
"Destroying national cultural relics is not a small crime." Long Zhan said.
This is a national relic?!
I was very strange, so I went outside with Zheng Li and checked the box.
It is shown on the Internet that this box is a cultural relic of the Ming Dynasty that only recently resurfaced. If it's true, of course.
Before the authenticity can be determined, it seems that the road of smashing open the box will not work.
In the office, Zheng Li and I stood face to face, looking at each other.
Zheng Li's face was even deeper than mine.
"If this thing is really a cultural relic, then Long Zhan is really painstaking." Zheng Li said.
I nodded secretly, agreeing with her, and at the same time couldn't help but wonder, "What is Long Zhan's purpose in doing this?" I feel that his motive for killing is not the motive of a normal person. If it's for money, there's no reason to take such a total thing, and set up such a game so carefully. And every step seems to be under his control. ”
Zheng Li nodded, approved my idea, and said, "Yes." It doesn't seem that simple. ”
I let out a deep gasp and looked back at the box. I had a vague feeling that there must be some important clue hidden here. So I'm going to open this box anyway.
But the problem is that the lock on the top of the box also seems to be an antique, so it can't be pried open.
For this reason, I did not hesitate to directly find a lockpicking expert, hoping that he could open this lock without breaking this lock.
But after several attempts, he failed.
Even the experts in this area couldn't figure it out, and we were all immediately deflated, feeling that this box would never be opened.
Even at night, I was still very stubborn in studying how to open the lock. And Zheng Li went to talk and came back, but the result was obvious and failed.
Long Zhan's cultivation is even higher than Zheng Li's. He is very calculating, and can guess almost everyone's psychology. Not only that, but his own defense mechanism is also very high.
Zheng Li's methods were all seen through by him one by one.
In a desperate situation, I had a whim and directly used Tie Zhe's birthday to pick the lock. I just had the idea of giving it a try, but I didn't expect it to be successful.
