Chapter 14: The Secret of the Exposition

Qiu Zhe and Cui Peng returned to school, just after six o'clock in the evening, and there was still some time before it got dark. The two of www.biquge.info them planned to find a place to eat first, but they saw a police car parked in front of the school's No. 1 office building, and occasionally students passing by, so they couldn't help but look twice.

"The police are coming?" Cui Peng was a little strange: "Hasn't the school been hiding the news for fear that others will know, will it have the courage to call the police?"

When he was wondering, he saw two men in civilian clothes coming out of the building and walking towards the police car.

"Huh," Cui Peng couldn't help but squeak when he saw these two men.

"What's wrong?" asked Qiu Zhe.

"I seem to have seen an acquaintance," Cui Peng said, "Strange, how could it be him coming? ”

He tugged on Qiu Zhe's sleeve and walked over directly, greeting him from afar: "Captain Guan, why did you come here?" ”

The man he called the captain was the man who walked in front, who looked like the leader, about thirty years old, tall and thin, with short hair that was almost flat, big eyes and a high nose, very handsome facial features, and a very tough figure, full of ability between gestures.

Hearing Cui Peng's greeting, the captain was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Cui Peng coming over, he immediately smiled: "It turned out to be Xiao Cui, didn't you go to school in Omi? When did you come back?"

"I'm in Jiangdong now," Cui Peng was a little embarrassed when he heard the other party call himself Xiao Cui, but he didn't show it: "My dad helped me get a transfer school, and it's in this school." ”

"Hehe," Captain Guan smiled: "Your father is afraid that no one will take care of you outside, here, there is your seventh uncle." ”

His words just poked Cui Peng's sore spot, from childhood to adulthood, Cui Peng's biggest fear was his father. When he was a child, he was naughty and mischievous, and he didn't study well in school, and his father was angry, so he sent him to the countryside thousands of miles away, and borrowed him in a small town, just because he had an uncle in his own family, who was the director of teaching in this town, and he was the most stern.

It was that period of borrowing career that made him know Qiu Zhe. The two hit it off at first sight, and gradually had a lifelong friendship.

Later, after the high school entrance examination, Qiu Zhe left his hometown, and Cui Peng also returned to Jiangdong and studied high school for three years with peace of mind. I was finally admitted to a university in a foreign country, thinking that no one would control me from now on, but I knew that my father had already recruited him, and he mixed up with the board of directors of Jiang University by donating money to support his education, and transferred his student status back. There is no other reason, just because Cui Peng has one

The seventh uncle taught at Jiang University.

Speaking of which, the Cui family is also a famous family, their hometown is in Hedong Province, there are hundreds of people in the whole clan, doing different livelihoods, and many people are considered to be elites for a while in their own fields. For example, Cui Peng, the seventh uncle, is actually less than thirty this year, and he is already a professor, and he still teaches at a top famous school like Jiangdong University.

However, when Cui Peng came to report, it happened that the seventh uncle went abroad to be a visiting scholar on the other side of the ocean, and his father was busy with business and had never had much opportunity to discipline his son personally, which gave Cui Peng some respite and mingled with Qiu Zhe all day long.

However, in the face of this captain who knows a lot of his background, Cui Peng is not very stage frightened. He knew that the other party had no friendship with his father, but he was accustomed to the seventh uncle who had always been amiable, and he was not afraid that the other party would beat his own little report.

"My seventh uncle has gone abroad, I'm afraid he won't have time to take care of me. Cui Pengpi said with a smile, the expression on his face was a little unscathed: "Captain Guan, what are you doing here? My seventh uncle is not here, what can be in a small place like Jiangda that can alarm you?"

"Hehe, drop by. Captain Guan didn't answer directly, just smiled and laughed, and then reversed Cui Peng's words: "By the way, I heard that something strange happened to your school recently?"

"What kind of strange thing is called?" Seeing that the other party refused to confess, Cui Peng also made a sloppy eye: "There are a lot of things happening in our school, and I can't finish talking about it for a few days, I just don't know if in the eyes of your captain, is it enough to meet the standard of strange things?"

"Yo, boy, you can. Captain Guan was not angry, and patted Cui Peng on the shoulder: "I see that you kid has a story, go, find a place to talk slowly." Xiao Wang, you go back with the driver first, and I want to catch up with my eldest nephew. The latter sentence is obviously an explanation to the casual clothes in the back.

"No," Cui Peng pointed at Qiu Zhe, "I'm with a friend." ”

"Let's go, let's go, let's go. "Captain Guan is easy to talk to.

Seeing the police car drive away, Captain Guan led Cui Peng and Qiu Zhe to a restaurant at the back door of the campus to ask for a private room, and ordered six dishes and one soup, all of which were hard dishes with sufficient portions, and asked for a dozen beers.

After the two of them had a drink, the captain said slowly: "There were a lot of people just now, and it was inconvenient to talk about some things. ”

Cui Peng had an expression of "I knew it was like this", first filled the wine glasses, and then introduced them to both parties:

"Captain Guan, this is my good friend Qiu Zhe, absolutely reliable. Xiaoqiu, this is the captain of the tube, a good friend of my uncle, who also often guides me. ”

"Luckily!"

"Luckily!"

After the two shook hands and fulfilled social etiquette, Cui Peng followed the previous topic and said: "By the way, the team, what is the matter, you want to go out in person?"

"According to the rules, this matter cannot be spread out," the captain said in a low voice, "but it doesn't hurt to tell you." Have you heard about the theft of the museum?"

Stolen from a museum?

Cui Peng was a little stunned for a moment: "What museum was stolen? This kind of thing won't alarm you, right?"

"It's that I didn't make it clear," Captain Guan smiled apologetically: "Strictly speaking, the convention and exhibition center was stolen, you should know about the recent expo, right?"

"Oh, I know," Cui Peng understood: "You mean that 'strange civilization tour', I went to see it with my friends, and then I heard that there was an equipment failure and the museum was temporarily closed, so I didn't pay attention to it anymore." Why, it's been stolen?"

Captain Guan glanced at Qiu Zhe and did not answer immediately.

Cui Peng immediately understood: "Don't worry, Xiaoqiu is my best friend, and he is not an ordinary person." ”

This captain is a good friend of Uncle Cui Peng's seventh uncle, and his friendship is very iron. Because of this relationship, the two have also had a lot of contact, and Cui Peng knows that the details of the other party are very unusual. I don't know if it's because of his seventh uncle, Captain Guan also looks at Cui Peng differently, and he gets along very well in private.

Cui Peng knows that with the status of this captain, he already has his own criteria for judging what to say and what not to say, and he is not an old antique who strictly abides by dogma, but if he wants to speak, he must be qualified enough.

Cui Peng felt that just his empty words might not be able to impress the other party, and he was about to reveal some Qiu Zhe's things, but the captain suddenly smiled:

"There's nothing that can't be said about this, but those guys in the city bureau are too nervous to make it look like they are now. You've said that, I'll be honest with you. Any equipment failure is a lie, in fact, it is because the exhibition was stolen, in order to save the site, the venue was temporarily closed. ”

"It was stolen on the day of the exhibition?" Cui Peng reacted quickly: "I said, I felt strange that day, it was fine in the morning, and it was closed in the afternoon for some reason." At that time, I thought that the organizer's organizational ability was too poor, and it took so much effort to prepare for the exhibition for so long, and if it was out of order, it would fail, and it would be so serious that the museum would be closed, and the so-called equipment failure was just a smokescreen. ”

"It's just a matter of coaxing outsiders," Captain Guan dismissed: "Those who should know about it have already known about it, and ordinary citizens don't care about these expos, even if they know about it, it's just a gossip." ”

"Then captain, why did you get involved?" Cui Peng still didn't understand: "This kind of theft case can be handed over to the police to handle, so you won't be dispatched, right?"

"What was stolen this time were two artifacts from Hall 7: a gold plate and an ancient mirror. Captain Guan did not immediately answer Cui Peng's question, but said something else: "That gold plate can be traced back to the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties in Middle Earth at the earliest, and the ancient mirror is even more precious, it is from the European continent, it is said to be a cultural relic left over from the Middle Ages, and it was sent to the exhibition soon after it was unearthed." ”

"Aren't the Northern and Southern Dynasties earlier than the Middle Ages?" Qiu Zhe was a little puzzled: "Why is the ancient mirror more precious than the gold plate? Whether from the perspective of cultural relics or materials, it should be that the gold plate is more important, right?"

"That's not the case," Cui Peng explained: "The ancient mirror is from Europe, and it was suddenly stolen, it should be related to foreign affairs, right?" The last sentence was obviously asked to the captain of the tube.

"Yes, Xiao Cui, your brain is still flexible," Captain Guan said, "But these cultural relics themselves are precious, but they are nothing special." Although it is said that it involves foreign affairs, strictly speaking, it is still an act of private autonomy. ”

"Yes, since that's the case, there's no need to alarm you, right?" Cui Peng asked in his tone.

"That's why we're not here to find lost property. ”

"Damn," Cui Peng rolled his eyes: "You have been talking for a long time, which means that you haven't said anything." ”

"It's not for the lost property," Captain Guan was not annoyed by Cui Peng's attitude, and still said with a pleasant face: "It's for the people who steal cultural relics." ”
