Xu Bai stared at the computer screen and watched the entire video in less than five minutes.

The image is a microcolor picture, and the clarity is very different from the current blue light.

In other words, this image must be some years old.

Xu Bai tightened his eyebrows: "This is?" ”

Fu Zhong said: "More than 30 years ago, a local photographer took it. The process of theft of a batch of stolen artifacts is also recorded. Although the image is not long, this precious material has become the last work of the photographer at the end of his life. ”

"Did a group of artifacts go missing more than thirty years ago?" Xu Bai thought to herself, she had heard about the theft of unearthed cultural relics from the air-raid shelter next to the Eastern Han Dynasty tomb ten years ago, and it was also stolen thirty years ago?

"Thirty-two years ago, to be exact. At that time, I was still very young, just like Lu Kun now. Passionate about this hard and sacred industry. ”

Xu Bai didn't say anything.

Thirty-two years is so far away from what she is now.

She hadn't even come into the world yet.

Her parents were not in love and married, so Xu Bai at that time was not even a fertilized egg.

Xu Bai tightened his throat: "What does this image have to do with me?" ”

Fu Zhongyi stared at her for a long time, and suddenly said indifferently: "Xiao Xu, you look more like your father, he was a first-class beautiful man when he was young, but your eyes are very similar to Zhaodi." ”

As Fu Zhongyi spoke, his two arms folded in front of the table, and he couldn't help but stare at it.

When he was still young, Fang Zhaodi, just like Xu Bai now, desperately wanted to be recognized by him and by all the people in the industry. She could spend all night looking through various books and materials in order to find a cultural relic, or she could go to the great northwest alone, which was still very desolate at that time, to visit and investigate.

Appreciating Fang Zhaodi is not that her talent is enough to make all men fall for it, but her hard and unyielding spirit, many men are inferior to her.

What happened to such a strange woman?

Fu Zhongyi's pupils contracted violently, Xu Bai was stared at in a panic, and reminded: "You haven't answered my question yet." ”

After a few moments, Fu Zhongyi came back to his senses, lit a cigarette and smoked fiercely.

He got down to business and preached: "After you watched the video, don't you think a person's figure is very familiar? ”

Xu Bai didn't pay attention, and personally pressed the mouse to replay it again.

This time, she looked at the video with a clear purpose, and her face turned pale.

Fuzhong is right.

There are five people in the picture.

Four men and one woman.

Although because of the pixel problems and distance limitations of the equipment at that time, as well as the lighting, the facial features of these five people were all unrecognizable.

But the body shape ......

At this time, Fu Zhongyi asked again: "Xiao Xu, do you see it familiar now?" ”

Xu Bai didn't say anything.

But Fu Zhongyi didn't let her go.

Cut the image to the third minute and fifty seconds, then press the pause button.

Fu Zhongyi's calloused fingers pointed to the man in the gray cloth shirt in the middle, "Doesn't it look like your father?" ”

Xu Bai's cold sweat was already pouring out at this time.

For people you are familiar with, a back is often enough.

Intuition will help you recognize who he is the first time.

Xu Bai bit her lip, not wanting to tell Fu Zhongyi that there was more than one figure she was familiar with.

His eyes shifted from the gray-clothed man to an older woman next to him.

She is short and stocky, with a thick upper body and thin legs.

The hair is typically grayish.

Xu Bai suddenly thought of a few key words.

Heilongjiang, Harbin City, dead aunt.

Although her father called her aunt, she was actually twelve years older than her father, and she was a typical young white since she was a child, and her hairstyle did not change until the day she died.

"Why don't you speak?" Fu Zhongyi's voice had a sense of crampedness.

Xu Bai took the initiative to move the computer screen back to its original position, looked at Fu Zhongyi and said, "Teacher Fu, what do you want me to say?" Is it that if I admit that the man in the gray cloth resembles my dad, you assume that my dad took the thing? As an archaeologist of stature, you shouldn't be so hasty. ”

Fu Zhongyi had expected her to say this, so he laughed twice and said, "Let's be rampant." You're right, because there is no more evidence, speculation can only become speculation, and suspicion can only become suspicion. But in my mind, the truth has long been determined. ”

Xu Bai gritted his teeth, and then said lightly: "You speak like this very unstandard. ”

Fu Zhongyi didn't say anything, but the corners of his eyes were slightly curved.

God knows, Xu Bai's hands were intertwined with his fingers at this time, rubbing them on his thighs, and the sweat on his hands turned from the needles of his lips into a large piece of dampness.

The shredded hair on her sideburns was also soaked, her mouth was bitter and astringent, and her face became more and more ugly.

Fu Zhongyi saw all the changes in Xu Bai's eyes, he got up and walked to the corner where the water dispenser was placed, poured a cup of cold white water for Xu Bai, and slowly placed it in front of her.

Xu Bai unconsciously picked it up and drank it in one gulp.

The cool water ran down her throat, and her body temperature dropped slightly.

For a long time, Fu Zhongyi didn't take the initiative to say anything to Xu Bai.

But in the end, Xu Bai couldn't hold it back, swallowed a mouthful of saliva into his throat and asked, "How did that photographer die?" ”

Fu Zhongyi said: "The identified cause of death was shoveled into the belly by Luoyang, and he died after picking out the stomach and not being saved in time. ”

Xu Bai's body shook and asked again: "That is to say, if he was discovered when he was filming at that time, why would the image still be made public." ”

Fu Zhongyi smiled and looked at Xu Bai quietly.

I suddenly found that this young girl is quite sensitive to the attention to details.

For a moment, Fu Zhongyi suddenly began to appreciate her.

"The camera was found at the foot of the mountain." The translation of Fuzhong was succinct.

Xu Bai nodded in despair: "Judging from the image, the position where the photographer was standing at that time should indeed be in a high place. He filmed the process of transporting the artifacts in just five minutes. They may have had a brief experience of a struggle after being discovered, during which the camera was dropped down the mountain. Tomb robbers don't spend time looking for cameras at the foot of the mountain when transporting artifacts, because it's more important to ship artifacts quickly. ”

Fu Zhongyi said: "In the end, it is Fang Zhaodi's daughter, and her thinking is very clear. ”

Xu Baiban had a straight face: "But from the very beginning, Teacher Fu asked me to enter the institute and was not prepared to train me." In other words, you see me dangling around every day, like I'm looking at a fool, right? ”

The translation did not deny it, nor did it defend anything.

Xu Bai chuckled lightly and said to himself, "That's right." You said you thought my dad was a grave robber. Isn't my existence like the detonators and explosives found in the last tomb? ”

"Your disobedience, doubts, hesitations, and fears are now written in your eyes. ”

Xu Bai said: "I'm not convinced. ”

Fu Zhongyi sighed and came up with another killer idea.

He took out a USB flash drive from his pocket and plugged it in.

After finding a piece of information, he displayed it in front of Xu Bai.

"This is the registration information of the two batches of cultural relics after they were unearthed that year."

There are more than 100 pieces of unearthed cultural relics in these two batches, and Xu Bai looks at them one by one, and several of them are more and more familiar with them.

Later, a picture of an artifact overlaps with a late Eastern bronzes that night when he posed as a buyer and traded with the seller.

"This ......" Xu Bai was shocked.

Fu Zhongyi pulled out the USB flash drive, put it back in his pocket and said: "That night, after I got the cultural relics back, I stayed up all night to check the information and the previous backup information, and finally found this similarity. After all these years, none of these two missing artifacts have appeared at auction or in museums. This is the first artifact to be traded. ”

"What do you mean?" Xu Bai was more alert.

Fu Zhongyi said: "Xiao Xu, don't you think it's strange when I say? Not long ago, the pagoda incident has sounded a big alarm bell for us and even the entire Cultural Relics Bureau. It didn't take long for someone to buy and sell artifacts privately. It may also be one of the objects in the stolen cultural relics of the late Eastern period. Is this a coincidence, or is it a conspiracy? ”

Xu Bai didn't understand.

"What kind of conspiracy can this have?"

Fu Zhongyi took a sip of tea: "Xiao Xu, maybe what they really want is the USB flash drive in my pocket." I want to use this Eastern Han Dynasty drinking vessel as bait. I suspect that there is a ghost in our house. ”

Now Xu Bai understood.

Although I don't know what is important behind this information, listening to Fu Zhong's translation means that this inner ghost is none other than Xu Bai.

But Xu Bai soon became confused again.

If the information is so important, why did Fu Zhong Translate still show her?

He even had a resignation letter ready for her.

Just when he wanted to ask something, Fu Zhongyi had already guessed Xu Bai's question, and preemptively said: "I won't show this USB flash drive information to anyone, and no one in the office has read it now." In other words, let's say the USB flash drive is gone in a few days, or the USB flash drive is exposed in the information, then I will be the first to stand up and testify and ask the police to arrest you. ”
