Bai Lang raised his hand and shot it, but he didn't aim at it, and saw Wu Changhao's hat flying into the sky. scared Wu Changhao into a cold sweat.

"Hey, do you see? Wu Changhao, this gun is really good, the detective uses it, you should also have one for each of you, and this one will be given to you as a sample. ”

After saying that, Bai Lang threw the gun to the shore and landed at Wu Changhao's feet, laughing. The boat floated downstream along the gently flowing river.

The two banks were surrounded by spectators watching the excitement, and Wu Changhao and his subordinates chased after him along the riverbank.

As he pulled up a piece of the plank, and not knowing what he was going to do, he said to Markovsky:

"Brother Markovsky, it's not my purpose to fish here, it's to salvage packages that have sunk in the water. I didn't expect you to ........." At this moment, the bottom of the boat began to enter the water.

"Mr. Markovsky, look...... The water was going up, and Mr. Wu Changhao rowed a boat to pick us up, and they didn't row slowly, and they could catch up with us in 5 minutes. ”

The water in the boat was getting more and more, and it had already submerged the ankles of the two men, but the two of them were nothing. Markovsky took out a cigarette and lit one, and Bai Lang smiled and looked at the boat behind him.

The water was up to their waists, and Markovsky leisurely smoked a cigarette and spat smoke rings into the sky. Bai Lang also crossed his hands and looked at him.

The water in the boat was about to be full, and the two men watched indifferently, and neither of them moved.

"Mr. Detective, take off your coat, and at this time you are still talking about gentlemanly demeanor? Well, I'll keep you groomed."

The boat finally sank into the water, and the two men did not move, looking at each other, and let the water go above their heads. The spectators on both sides of the strait were in a commotion, some cheering, some whistling, and they didn't know who they were cheering for.

After a long time, a black head floated up and swam towards Wu Changhao's boat, it was Markovsky.

The security guard hurriedly pulled him onto the boat, at this time Bai Lang also floated up from a distance, he dived far away to change his breath, at this moment, Kong Jie's team leader shot, only to hear Bai Lang "ah", struggled a few times, then sank, did not come up again.

Shiro's disappearance took place at 3 p.m. sharp, and after dinner that night, Markovsky and Mr. and Mrs. Fu Kemu had a conversation in the living room of their mansion.

"Is Miss Guan Ying here?"

"Yes, Mr. Bunin's condition has improved a little today, so she has time to play with the children for a while, and now she is playing with the children."

"Please send someone to invite her, I want to explain the truth of the case to everyone, I want her to hear it too, that's all."

The servant found Miss Guan Ying, who looked a little pale, but looked very calm, and stood calmly beside Madame, looking at Markovsky.

Markovsky saw that everyone had arrived, and calmly opened his mouth:

"Ladies and gentlemen, after a few days of investigation, the facts of the case have been decided, but it is slightly different from my original inference, although it turns out that it was done by insiders, but there are still many subtleties in the specifics. Now that a lot of what was lost has returned, before revealing the real culprit, I will tell you how the case was solved. ”

Markovsky began to tell the story of the events that had taken place in the past three days, including the discovery of picture books, the cutting and pasting of letters, the discovery of Yu Qianwen, the package thrown into the river, Yu Qianwen's suicide, the battle with Bai Lang on the boat, the disappearance of Bai Lang, etc., and everyone present was stunned and frightened, as if they were watching a thrilling movie directed by the director, only Miss Guan Ying stood there expressionless and listened to Markovsky's eloquent talk.

"After talking for a long time, who is the real thief?" Fu Kemu was anxious to know the outcome.

"The person who communicates with Shirahiro by cutting and pasting letters is a thief, with only one purpose, so that others cannot see his handwriting."

"How did you find out about his correspondence with Hakuro?"

"Hakuro inadvertently exposed it to me. And lo and behold!" Markovsky took out the piece of paper that Bai Lang wrote to him by the river, "Bai Lang just wanted to provoke me, he deliberately wrote this note, but it was self-defeating, not only exposing himself, but also revealing the truth of the theft and his accomplices." It's really clever but clever and mistaken by cleverness. ”

"Huh? Aren't the letters cdEhNopRIEo-237 written on it the same letters and numbers I saw last time?"

"It's pretty much the same, but there's a nuance. There were more E and o in the letters on this piece of paper, so I went to a newsstand, bought a copy of each of the "Sound Newspapers" that had been in stock for the past few days, and found out the connection between Bai Lang and the criminal.

Roughly speaking, the owner of the mailbox asks Shirarou for help, and it seems that he is in trouble. He told Shiraro the basic information and address, and Shiraro started an investigation, and then they met in the park at 3 p.m. one day to exchange information, and then the owner of the mailbox decided to act on Saturday night, and Shiraro agreed, and picked him up in the park on Sunday morning.

During this period, Bai Lang had already met the person who asked for help, and knew that he was threatened by Yu Qianwen, so he was willing to help and study countermeasures with him. After that, they no longer posted in the newspapers because they could interview in the park.

"We also know what happened later, on Saturday night, the ancient lamp was stolen, and then the owner of the mailbox met with Bai Lang, and then gave the stolen ancient lamp to Yu Qianwen.

"Because of the clever falsification of the scene, the security guards did not suspect the owner of the mailbox, and always believed that it was a thief."

"Oh, I see, what about the second theft?"

"The second time was done by Yu Qianwen. This time, he used a ladder to create the same effect as the last faked scene, which made it even more misleading to the fact that the same person did it twice. Judging from his second method, I think the second thief was not Bai Lang but Yu Qianwen.

"After that, I launched an investigation, and Bai Lang also sent someone to keep an eye on Yu Qianwen. At the same time, Bai Lang also put pressure on Yu Qianwen to hand over the stolen goods twice. Feeling that the stolen goods were not safe in his hands, he came up with the idea of hiding the stolen things in a package, and then sinking them into the river before taking them out.

"I didn't expect him to be targeted by me and Bai Lang at the same time as soon as he acted. At this time, the owner of the mailbox also knew the progress of the investigation, and was afraid that Yu Qianwen would confess after being caught, so he also persuaded Yu Qianwen to quickly hide with someone and something. Yu Qianwen panicked and hurriedly sank the stolen goods into the river, only to find that Wu Changhao and I had already set their sights on him. Discouraged and disappointed, he felt that he could not escape justice, so he shot himself. ”

"So did you find what was lost?"

"It's been fished out of the river."

Markovsky took out a wax-sealed package and opened it, revealing all the stolen items inside.

Fu Kemu grabbed the ancient lamp, turned the base, and a hole appeared on the lamp, and the little gem-inlaid monster was placed inside, intact and still brilliant.

Fu Kemu frowned, and his mood was relaxed.

"Mr. Markovsky, the treasure is completely due to you, I don't know how to repay you?"
