"Three, two, one... Haha, it's off work."

The next afternoon, his partner Dachang "gets off work on time" again, he waved to Lin Qiupu and said, "I'm going back, you should go home early, and check again tomorrow."

Lin Qiupu frowned and said, "Da Chang, it's really bad for you to do this. Now everyone is looking for clues day and night, so you should spend a little more time!"

Da Chang poked Lin Qiupu twice in the chest and said, "You don't need you newcomer to teach me how to be a policeman!"

With that said, he drove away, Lin Qiupu sighed and shook his head.

After a busy day, I didn't find many clues. Lin Qiupu knew that it was not easy to investigate the case. He was about to visit the next pawnshop before it was dark. When a phone call came, Song Lang asked on the phone: "Where?"

"I'm... Shangma Street."

"Don't move, I'll come to you."

After he said that, he hung up the phone. Lin Qiupu wondered, why did the captain come to him? Are there important things, but after a few days of getting along with him, he can feel the captain’s concern for him, and he always feels his heart every time he hears the captain’s voice. A hot.

Half an hour later, Song Lang's car appeared in front of him and told him to get in the car.

After getting in the car, Song Lang said: "Let's go eat!"

"Captain, are you looking for me on this?"

"No, I plan to go to a Taiyang pawn shop. I know you are outside, so I called you. This meal is a reward for working overtime!"

Lin Qiupu was flattered for a while.

When he came to a home-style restaurant, Song Lang ordered a few dishes at random, lit a cigarette, and asked, "What did you find?"

Lin Qiupu opened the small book and said: "There are three versions of the legend about this bowl. Some said it was Zhaodi, some said it was a Russian monk, some said it was the last executed prisoner in the Qing Dynasty, and the others are the same. Many pawnshop owners have received them. I suspect that someone is using the legend to defraud."

"The bowl you brought back yesterday, Lao Peng, was tested. It was cow bones. As for the bowl you got from Tai Yang, it was monkey bones."

"Ah, none of them are real!?"

"I also checked the files. This bowl first appeared in the Yuxiang pawn shop. The perpetrator was arrested long ago. This is how the unemployed guy came up with this'novel' fraudulent technique. He took a small broken bowl and a story he made up to deceive him, and then he was humiliated by the pawnshop owner and slapped him in the face. That night the guy killed the pawnshop owner's family of three in order to get out of his anger, and he ran away For a few days, I was so scared that I surrendered and I am still in jail. It stands to reason that the matter is over here, but the magic is that this bowl and this legend spread like a virus in the pawn shop in Long'an, almost home The pawnshops all received it. A small number of people paid the life insurance premium, and most people laughed. A small part of the unpaid money was indeed unlucky. From the data point of view, it is not convincing at all, but it has been added by outsiders. After retelling it over and over again, things have become more and more evil, and there are even three versions of the origin story of the bowl." Song Lang shook his head and smiled, "This thing is simply a classic model for rumor spreading, and it can be written into the society. Go to the textbook I learned, Xiaolin, tell me your opinion!"

"Uh, someone is using it?"

"Why use it?" Song Lang said encouragingly.

"Because... Because this legend is very evil, and the people who open pawn shops are more superstitious, and they can cheat money by using it."

"Yes, you have grasped the essence. The reason why this legend is alive is because it can bring practical benefits, just like all ridiculously clumsy tricks."

"Then is this legend related to the case...?"

"It doesn't matter, because He Jingjing is lying." Song Lang said lightly.

"Ah!" Lin Qiupu was shocked. The captain knew from the beginning that there was no connection, but asked him to check it for two days.

"You don't have to show a disappointed expression. The investigation of the case is not only proof, but also falsification. Why did He Jingjing use this legend and what can she get? He Taiyang withdrew one million from the bank before he died. The money is not yet Knowing where, maybe He Jingjing threw out this legend to take the opportunity to swallow the money, of course, it may also be for other purposes."

"I think we should focus on investigating her!" Lin Qiupu became excited.

Song Lang smiled, "Don't look at a person, He Jingjing is indeed doubtful, but she has no clear motive for killing, at least not now."

Lin Qiupu took a look at his notebook and said, “The owner of a pawnshop said that the relationship between He Taiyang and his nephew He Jun is actually not very good. The two quarreled a while ago, as if it was because of money.”

Song Lang nodded.

"There is also the owner of the calligraphy and painting, I asked, these pawnshop owners seem to know what, but they are not willing to say."

"You do have intentions." Song Lang smiled, "They didn't say that they were afraid of offending that person. This person is indeed not small."

"Captain, does Long An still have a gang of the nature of the underworld now?"

"There must be such a big city. As long as a group of people use violence for profit, they are a legal underworld gang... You have to eat quickly, and we have to investigate the case after eating."

At this time the food was on the table, Lin Qiupu let out an "Oh" and bowed his head to eat.

After dinner, Song Lang brought Lin Qiupu to the Taiyang pawn shop. He unexpectedly discovered that Captain Peng was also here. Captain Peng was carrying a survey box in his hand. Standing next to him was an unfamiliar uncle who seemed not to be a policeman.

"Why did you come!?" Peng Sijue complained.

"Haha, it seems that you haven't waited long for me. You won't talk to me for more than half an hour." Song Lang said shamelessly.

"Fourteen minutes, I stood here and waited for you for fourteen minutes!"

"Solemn apology."

Song Lang said without guilt, and then he spoke a few polite words with the uncle. Through conversations, he learned that he was an expert in calligraphy and painting appraisal.

Entering the pawnshop, He Jingjing is not there, only He Jun is looking at the store. Seeing the four people come together, He Jun looks a little impatient, "Why do the police come every day, we don't need to do business?"

"Murders don't happen in every pawnshop, let's cooperate!" Song Lang said.

"Well, what do I have to ask this time." He Jun looked impatient.

"We learned that this shop once received a picture of Zhang Detian's calligraphy and painting. Do you know who the customer is?"

"I know, but I can't say."

"Why?"

"Because I said that you will go to him and disturb the cleanliness of the old man, he will be unhappy, and then find out that I said it, I will be unlucky!"

"Haha!" Song Lang laughed dryly, "A big boss of this level will also be short of money, and come to be a calligraphy and painting?"

"Billionaires also had trouble turning around. It was the boss who sent someone to do it. Uncle He did not kindly do things this time. He exposed the calligraphy and painting into two. He didn't expect the other party to redeem it after a few days. He was greedy for a while, and gave one of them to others, and kept a copy for himself. The big guy was very angry when he found out, and he wanted to get out of it!"

What He Jun said is another version.

Song Lang said, "So, on the day He Taiyang was killed, he took the other half of the calligraphy and painting and money to apologize?"

"No, I don't know what's in his box."

"Is that half of the calligraphy and painting still in the shop?"

"I don't know this!" He Jun said with blinking eyes.
