Chapter 10 Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
"All I can say is that the gem doesn't seem to be in this venue." Ouyang Xiu blinked his eyes and said mysteriously.
"Cut! There's no difference between what you say and what you don't say. Zheng Hanfei snorted disdainfully, wondering what he wanted to do.
"I can't help it." Ouyang Xiu shrugged his shoulders, "I don't dare to make assumptions, don't forget, there is no evidence yet." ”
"Proof, I've found it." Zheng Hanfei smiled confidently, "You should know that from just now to now, the thief shouldn't have the kung fu to approach the display shelf, so that thing should still be inside, as long as you find it......"
"Wait." Ouyang Xiu interrupted, "If the thief is wearing gloves and doesn't have any fingerprints on them, then this thing can only explain the mystery of the disappearance of the gem, and it can't tell who stole the gem at all." ”
"You mean...... Luring the snake out of the hole? ”
"That's right, it's to lure the snake out of the hole."
"That's good." Zheng Hanfei nodded, "I'll go and prepare first, you ......"
"Wait." Ouyang Xiu blocked Zheng Hanfei's way, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Hanfei looked very puzzled.
"Ask you something."
"What?"
"Do you really want to expose him or her? I think you already know that he or she didn't mean to, but just wanted to teach him a lesson, just like the name means - the elf in Acheron. ”
"I don't know what you're talking about." Zheng Hanfei laughed twice, as if he was laughing at what Ouyang Xiu said, "If I knew about the thief, I would have forced him (her) to confess the crime." ”
"You're scared!" A gleam flashed in Ouyang Xiu's eyes, "Although I don't know what's going on, your heart is full of fear. ”
"What are you talking nonsense......"
"No explanation." Ouyang Xiu said, "I only hope that some relevant people know, and those who are not related to it still don't know." ”
"Try your best." Zheng Hanfei was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "I said that there are some things that I can't control. ”
"Thank you!" Ouyang Xiu patted Zheng Hanfei gratefully.
……
"I'm sorry, Uncle Sterling." Zheng Hanfei said a little decadently, "This thief is so cunning that I can't find any clues about where the gem is." ”
"It's okay, you just do your best." Sterling reassured, "As the elves in Acheron say, you're mortal, and it's only natural that you can't stop it. ”
"Thank you."
"That's right! Didn't you say that the prisoners were among us? He also said that he wanted to tell me about the modus operandi, so please tell me about it now. Diro said as if he remembered something.
"Hehe, I thought wrong, sorry to disturb your interest."
"Alas, I didn't expect the famous detective to admit defeat, it's really unexpected." At this time, Katie said sarcastically with a bad face, and her red face showed that she was still angry with Zheng Hanfei.
"Are you willing?" Zheng Hanfei said with an unhappy face, "I admit that I can't solve this case, and my reputation has been ruined on this, but what does it have to do with you?" ”
"Can it be okay? It's because we trust you that we removed the surveillance of the venue, and you still say that the gem will definitely not escape under your nose, so what in the end? The gems were still stolen and you are responsible. ”
"Sister is right, you have to be responsible!" Di Luo supported on the side, and the disgust in his eyes proved that he didn't like Zheng Hanfei either, I don't know if it was because Zheng Hanfei made Katie angry, or because he simply looked at Zheng Hanfei unpleasantly.
"You ......" Sterling didn't expect his two children to be like this, and he wanted to say something, but he knew in his heart that they wouldn't listen to him.
"Then tell me, what do you want me to do?" Zheng Hanfei took a deep breath and said calmly, but the constant shaking of his eyebrows showed that he was very angry now.
"First of all, you have to apologize to my sister."
"I agree." Zheng Hanfei nodded and immediately bowed to Katie, "Miss Katie, I was wrong, I shouldn't doubt you, I apologize to you." ”
"I accepted it." Katie said lightly. Although she doesn't like Zheng Hanfei, but people apologize so sincerely, coupled with her own quality and cultivation, she will not make difficult moves at all.
"Anything else?" Zheng Hanfei continued to ask.
"The second point, you have to pay ......"
"Okay, no problem. ' How much is Tears of Hope'? I lost it, I admit it. ”
"Wait! I don't want money, the 'tears of hope' are priceless, I can't buy them with any amount of money, and this is my sister's birthday present. ”
"Then what do you want!" Zheng Hanfei continued to hold back his anger and asked.
"We want your fame."
"What? My reputation? ”
"That's right, although your reputation is planted in this case, as long as we don't say it, no one will know. Besides, your fame is still popular abroad, such as Japan. ”
"This ......" Zheng Hanfei thought for a while, and finally replied with a reluctant look, "Okay, I promise you, is there anything else." ”
"The last one, you have to compensate my sister for mental damages, don't want you more, five million!"
"What!" Zheng Hanfei finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted to Di Luo, "Don't deceive people too much!" ”
"That's it! You're asking too much! Sterling also roared from the sidelines, he didn't expect Diro to say such a thing.
"Diro, you're really too much...... "Katie couldn't listen to it anymore, "the first two, it's good that people can swallow their breath and agree to you, why bother to drive people to a dead end." Also, we're not short of money. ”
"Sister, you can't be soft-hearted!" Di Luo glared at Zheng Hanfei angrily and said, "He has made you a lot ugly, has he taken care of your birthday gift, according to the law, he must compensate you for mental damages." ”
"But ......" Zheng Hanfei thought for a while before he spoke, "I don't have that much money." ”
"Then it's none of our business, you look at the ...... yourself" Before he finished speaking, Diro had an extra gold card in front of his eyes, and a voice that was extremely familiar to him sounded in his ears.
"I paid for him."
"Social ...... Stop! What are you doing here? Seeing Ouyang Xiu standing in front of him with a smile on his face, Di Luo looked a little panicked and hurriedly waved his hand to refuse.
"Yes, Ouyang Xiu, how can I ask you for money." Zheng Hanfei also learned to shake Di Luo's hand and refused on the side.
"Just make a friend!" Ouyang Xiu shrugged his shoulders indifferently and stuffed the gold card into Di Luo's hand, "This money is nothing at all, okay, Zheng Hanfei has already cleared up with you, so I hope you can get along amicably and stop making fun of each other." Uncle Sterling, it's a little late, so we will leave first, so we don't need you to send it. ”
"Okay, be careful on the road!"
The two nodded, and walked out of the venue, followed by not only Uncle Wang, but also those guests who had stood under the stage for a long time with dissatisfied faces.
"By the way, tell the security guards, cordon off the scene, and ask the police tomorrow, do you know?" Sterling sighed, as the letter said, the elves in Acheron did make him more miserable, not only making the exhibition a mess, but also discrediting his friend's child.
"Got it, I'll tell." Katie and Diro replied in unison.
"Okay, it's so late, let's spend the night in the company today." Sterling scratched his head in annoyance, turned to leave the venue, and when he reached the door of the venue, he seemed to remember something, stopped, and said, "Daughter, I'm sorry." ”
Katie was slightly stunned, and then said, "Don't think that an apology can get my forgiveness." ”
"Alas! Good night! With a few words, Sterling disappeared from the sight of the two.
……
Late at night, venue.
Crunch~, the closed door suddenly opened with a slight sound. Unfortunately, there was no one on the floor where the venue was located, so no one heard it.
A dark shadow first stuck out his head and glanced at the venue, although it was dim, but with the help of the moonlight outside the door, the black shadow could still see the route he was taking, and he was sure that there was no one in the room.
The black shadow carefully closed the door, then locked it, and walked on tiptoe according to the route in his mind, and after some time, he finally walked to the display shelf, showing a smile.
"I didn't expect them to be so stupid, what a famous detective, it's just a stupid." The black shadow sneered twice, then put on his gloves, reached out his hand, grabbed the small circular hole on the edge of the display stand, and pulled it hard, and he removed part of the display stand.
The black shadow opened his hand and touched his pocket, took out a mini flashlight, turned on the power, and white light suddenly emerged from the light bulb, illuminating the inside of the display shelf.
"How is that possible, things?" Seeing that the display shelf was empty, the black shadow was obviously startled, and then he heard a click, and all the lights in the venue were turned on, and his eyes couldn't be opened.
"You're looking for this, aren't you?" Zheng Hanfei shook the items in his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Murderer." ”
