Priceless

We sat in the same room where the mystery and the conclusion had been announced two days earlier, and two days before I had a sad face, but now I was in high spirits, and Thor was even more than so, and even Rahman, who had always been hidden, was smiling unexpectedly. The other people in the tour group were also talking and laughing with smiles, but from my careful observation, there seemed to be a little anxiety and confusion hidden behind their smiles. Of course, maybe it's just me making something out of nothing! Hahaha, I almost laughed out loud.

The meeting began quickly. First of all, it was Rahman who spoke: "In the past few days, we have discovered a number of new suspicions, first ask Sol to tell us about the investigation of the man-made gem found in the cave." "His expression is always intriguing.

"This is the artificial gem that Xu Meng found in another, smaller cave next to the white cave where the dead body was found." Thor held up the plastic band containing the gems, carefully letting everyone look at it. "After careful testing by our gem appraiser from the Criminal Police Department, it was confirmed that this is a rather rare diopside. Its color is extremely special, with irregular bright purple distributed unevenly on the green ring surface, which is definitely an extremely rare treasure in the world. Later, we inquired in many ways, only to learn that this treasure was actually a strange stone that was born by luck because of a careless mistake in the production process, so although it cannot be said to be a priceless treasure, it is definitely a rare thing in the world, and it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to have. We put a lot of effort into finding its owner, going around and around, and finally we finally locked on one person, and she ...... It's the beautiful Miss Carrie in our tour group. ”

At this time, everyone's eyes unconsciously focused on the beauty. Under the gaze of everyone, the beauty Jiali sneered unnaturally, and she shook the delicate embroidered fan in her hand vigorously, as if trying to hide the irrepressible heartbeat of the heart that seemed to burst out of her body. Her back was like a stiff stone at the moment, especially straight.

Just when everyone hadn't taken their eyes off the beauty, Dorio--- who was sitting next to her, that is, her husband, stood up violently.

"I seriously protest that you are framing and slandering. Indeed, this strange little gem was once adorned on Karrie's scarf, but it was unfortunately lost in the first few days of its visit. We have also searched many times, but to no avail. Because we had been drunk in the past few days, we were too embarrassed to go to the police station to report the loss, so we had to consider ourselves unlucky. Now it appeared next to the white cave where the dead were buried, and I guess either the murderer had deliberately thrown it there in order to divert attention and frame us, or it was a panic by a thief or a scavenger to sell the stolen goods. But it's ridiculous that you foolishly associate the unfortunate incident of our loss of the gem with the murder case! We sit upright, and we are not afraid of anyone's false accusations. This time, thinking of your urgency to solve the case immediately, I will let you go. If there is a next time, I will never be able to get around you, and you will not be able to eat and walk around! ”

"However, this is just your one-sided statement, and there is no real evidence at all." Thor said solemnly, his expression untimid.

Rahman reached out and made a temporary stop.

He smiled and said, "Now let's put this suspicion aside for the time being, and then listen to some other truths I have to say." ”

Dorio suppressed his anger and sat down, but his mouth was still muttering, and Thor tilted his head to the side in indignation. The others were silent, waiting for Rahman to speak. Rahman, however, was not in a hurry, he picked up a bottle of mineral water on the table, and after sipping a small half bottle, he began to speak slowly.

"First of all, I will first summarize the new doubts we have discovered, and then re-summarize the old doubts we have found in the past, and maybe you will be able to hear something that is not quite different from the past."

"The first point, the problem of the feather fan. Just as we were about to leave after visiting Lei Li Qunan, we suddenly saw this feather fan, which was displayed on a chair in a very inconspicuous corner. It wasn't easy to spot, but I was able to see it. Why is this so coincidental? It is because on the small square table next to the chair stands a Shehuo horse spoon mask, which has rough lines and bold ideas, like a perfect national intangible cultural heritage, and of course it is also a treasure that the villagers are most proud of in my hometown. Later, when I thought about it, the appearance of this hometown face is really chic enough. Without the crucial role it played, it would have been hard to lead me to glimpse the feather fan. But in retrospect, I'm embarrassed to see the feather fan that was placed next to the face, and I completely forgot about the horse spoon face I had seen before. This is because this particular fan has been a problem for me for more than 20 years, and it reminds me of an ethnic group that I still haven't figured out--- the Moli people. Whether this mysterious people really exists, and whether it is inextricably linked to the mystery I punished 25 years ago, these unsolved mysteries have always haunted me. Now it suddenly fell from the sky without warning, and it really made me feel strange and expectant. So I hurriedly deployed the relevant personnel to search for it overnight, but unfortunately the clue was still the same as before, and it was interrupted without warning. This situation is not uncommon, and I have already adapted to it. But the only thing I find strange is that if the Mori want to tell the world about the pride and ambition of the dead to live to the dead, then why is it that only in the mansion where the tour group stays has frequent feather fans, and there is no signal anywhere else, including the old mansions that have been left behind?! It's so puzzling! There was an exaggerated flavor to his words.

"The second point is that when we asked Justin, we heard something out of his mouth. This happened on the morning of the sixth day of the trip, when Justin went to his boss as usual, but when he arrived at the mansion, he did not find the boss, but soon after he heard the sound of the deceased, the boss himself, arguing with a man in the back garden. Due to the leafy nature of the garden, Justin did not see exactly what the man who was arguing with the deceased looked like. He snuck away to save his life, but Justin could still hear the roaring voices of the two men. If what Justin said was true, then even if the neighboring mansion didn't hear their noise, the workers working outside the back garden should have heard a few words, but the strange thing is that when we asked about the workers working outside the back garden, they shook their heads like rattles and denied them all, which had to make me and Saul wonder. Later, we confirmed with the relevant repair management department of the hotel, and learned that the construction work outside the back garden had been going on for two weeks, which means that the time period when the deceased quarreled with others coincided with the time when the workers were working outside the back garden, but these workers all said that they did not hear the slightest quarrel during the construction that morning, which is absolutely impossible, is it possible that Justin is telling a lie?! Although he hadn't finished speaking, Rahman's eyes were firmly fixed on Justin's face.

At this moment, Justin was speechless, he was sunk in his office chair like pins and needles, and the two slender thighs were nervously swaying from side to side.

Rahman withdrew his gaze and continued: "Thirdly, during our visit, Hansen was a typical ruffian. He said so much that the three of us had to flee in the end. We then exchanged ideas and agreed that what Hansen said was basically useless nonsense that confused the public. Despite this, there was a unique word in his rambling words that caught my attention. Although the word comes up very rarely, perhaps only once or twice, it is pronounced very specially, "le bei luo", which has an exotic and mysterious charm, and the echo is sonorous and powerful, as if there is a rare magic. So I searched a lot of books on minority languages and collected a lot of audio tapes about them, but with little success, I still don't know where the term comes from and what it means. But just yesterday, in a document describing the Moli language, I came across this strange word unexpectedly. In fact, its text explanation is very simple and vulgar, and the meaning is 'fool'. Seeing this, I laughed to myself, I thought it was some kind of lofty word! Now it is clear to me that this word is the common slang used by the Moli people! Then again, the reason why Hansen was able to come up with such a sentence was that he unconsciously made an axe, or did it prove that he was a member of the mysterious Mori clan, and of course there was a third possibility, that is, what other secret secrets did he have?! ”

As he said the last sentence, Rahman's small eyes drifted to Hansen's again. Their eyes met, and Hansen hastily looked away, beads of sweat rolling down his stiff cheeks.

"Fourth, we haven't forgotten that we had a meeting here two days ago to inform you of the doubts and tentative conclusions of the case. It was mainly Saul who was speaking, and I was listening. There were always some people muttering during the meeting, so I listened to Saul with one ear while the other ear savored the whispers of the low, which may be a bad habit of an old detective. I had heard two ladies talking to each other, and I barely remember what they said, but the name of one of them calling the other woman is still fresh in my memory. This little milk name is really a pun, not only let me understand that the relationship between the two of them must be extraordinary, they must have been inseparable good friends since childhood, and this rare milk name also has an ingenious relationship with an old case thirty years ago. Speaking of which, I would like to first announce to you the names of these two ladies, who are the famous singer Lady Jennifer and the chanting lady Leola, and the milk name of the 'flower bone' that I have heard is the young name of Jennifer calling Leora. As for the many circumstances of the case 30 years ago, please be calm, and we will press the table first. ”

Rahman smiled exaggeratedly at the two women seated together, but they could not laugh at all, and now they only looked at him in amazement.

"Fifth, let's talk about the problem with Galman's passport--- which are two seemingly inconsequential minor flaws. At the beginning of the investigation, we took away everyone's passports one by one, carried out relevant verification and inspection, and did not detect anything illogical in everyone's passports. Later, we sent all the passports to the relevant identification and inspection department, which was just a general routine, but we discovered a small secret--- two small changes in the validity of Galman's passport that were very imperceptible. After this change, the passport must have been illegally extended, but the rather subtle thing is that the extended passport expiration date is the third day of travel here, which must be said to be too clever. The first thought of the average person when they see such a passport is to remind the person concerned that the passport has just expired and that the passport needs to be renewed as soon as possible within the limited temporary period, and any other questions about the passport will definitely never be brought to their attention again. And the person concerned can also put on a surprised look of waking up from a dream when he looks at the passport, and this small change cannot but be said to be just right! Galman, did you decide to come here on the spur of the moment, so you haven't had time to renew your passport, or is there something else to hide?! ”

Instead of staring directly at Galman, Rahman looked beyond his rickety body into the distance, less like an interrogation, more like a fugue. I guess he already had a score in his mind, and he didn't want to ask more questions at all, but threw out a question that didn't need to be answered at all. Galman, on the other hand, hung his head so low that he could not see his expression at all, except that his hands, already covered with age spots, were stirring with difficulty.
