The police conducted a thorough search of Lie Guoxiao’s mansion. During the search, Lie Guoxiao sat on the sofa and smoked cigars and tasting wine. Half an hour later, the captain of the third team asked him: Where is it hiding?"
"What painting?"
"The paintings you got from those pawnshop bosses."
Lie Guoxiao raised his eyebrows, "I don't understand what you mean by'corrupt'. Those paintings are all taken by myself. Is this part of the mandatory search?"
"Of course."
So Lie Guoxiao summoned one of his subordinates and gave a few words. The subordinates said: "The old painters and Lie are placed in another place, please come with me!"
"Is it far?" Lin Qiupu asked.
"Need a ride."
Lin Qiupu arranged several people to investigate together, including Lin Dongxue, and Chen Shi of course also went with her.
Leaving this place, Lin Dongxue said disgustedly: "That old man is so annoying. He has been talking to me just now, and he is not a serious person at first sight."
"Just ignore him."
Lie Guoxiao's subordinates drove in front, a few police cars followed, and then they came to a very ordinary community, their subordinates led the police to a unit building and opened a door.
The biggest feeling of entering the door is cold, the air-conditioning in the room is extremely low, and the light is also very dim, probably to protect the ancient paintings.
The living room was empty. Those ancient paintings were not hung on the wall. The subordinates asked everyone to put on shoe covers, gloves, and preferably hats. Then they came to a bedroom with a tall one inside. The shelves, rows of scrolls are rolled up.
"These are Lao Lie's collections. Please be careful when checking."
Lin Dongxue picked up a picture and unfolded it. Although the author did not know the painting, there was a Qianlong seal on it, which was also very valuable.
"We want to make statistics, and we need you to act as a temporary consultant. After all, we don't understand ancient paintings either." Lin Dongxue asked.
"Yes, I know these paintings quite well, and I usually take care of them for Lie Lao."
"Where did these paintings come from?"
"Of course it's a formal channel. It's impossible for a decent person like Old Lie to win people's love." The subordinate said in a dull voice without ups and downs.
Lin Dongxue sneered, and then the police began to take pictures of these paintings one by one and make written statistics. It was too cold in the room, and everyone took turns to take a rest in the corridor.
When it was Chen Shi's turn to come out, he suddenly saw a black-clothed rider on the opposite side of the road downstairs, leaning on a motorcycle, looking in this direction with a telescope.
Doesn't the old man worry about them? Someone was also sent to stare.
"Wow, it's cold!" Lin Dongxue ran out and stomped her feet. The hair on her temples had already formed a layer of frost, "It feels colder than the morgue in the team."
"Is it just to confirm Lie Guoxiao's property today?" Chen Shi asked.
"Yes, this is the opinion of the three teams. These paintings are all from a source. If you investigate one by one, you can find evidence of Lie Guoxiao's crime."
"But do those pawnshop owners dare to sue him?"
"They are indeed afraid of him, but seeing the police are in action, I believe they will surely push the wall down. Aren't many black bosses falling like this? The last second is still domineering, and the next is everyone. Shout and beat."
Chen Shi smiled.
Lin Dongxue snorted, "Why put on a boring expression?"
"No, am I a boring expression?"
"I know this is definitely not interesting, but it is also the duty of the police!"
"I know! I will definitely accompany you."
Everyone was busy until late at night before returning to the bureau. After the joint operation tonight is over, the three teams will continue to trace the source of Lie Guoxiao's property, while Lin Qiupu and the others will continue to investigate the case of Boss Shen.
The next morning, when Lin Dongxue was at work, she found Chen Shi sitting in her chair and staring out the window in a daze. She said, "You came so early, have you had breakfast?"
Chen Shi turned around in his chair and said, "I reconsidered this case. The murderer’s motive for the murder may be that the negotiation with Boss Shen broke down, and then he killed the other person. The crime was perfectly blamed on Liu Feng. This shows that he is walking. Before entering the pawnshop, the murderer had already made two-handed preparations, either to negotiate or kill!"
"What will they negotiate?"
"From a general perspective, it must be a matter of interest, and I think the benefits of this matter are greater than that of an ancient painting, because the murderer, in order to make the blame to be more perfect, even throws the sky-high ancient paintings casually at Liu Feng's house. Actually, they don’t have to do this step at all..." Chen Shi lowered his head, "but I can’t figure out how, in the circle of boss Shen’s life, what is more profitable than that painting! They negotiated this one. He must be very afraid of leaking secrets, so if Boss Shen does not agree, he will have to die. Only the dead will not leak secrets..."
"Then why didn't buddies get killed?"
"You got the idea. From the murderer's standpoint, there are three reasons why the guy doesn't have to die. The first is that he didn't know, which means that his sighting was purely accidental; the second is that the murderer knew that he could be bought. , It can be seen that the murderer and the buddy are acquainted; the third is that his testimony can mislead the police investigation."
"From the monitoring point of view, the murderer is on that street!"
Chen Shi nodded, "The dude missed his mouth yesterday and told us that the murderer was two people. I think one of them was in charge of intelligence and the other was in charge of force. They must be able to plot the whole thing together. The relationship between these two people must be very close, maybe They are brothers, lovers, husband and wife..."
Chen Shi had thought of the two suspects, but he could not say, because only Song Lang was familiar with their past, and he must be "faithful" to Chen Shi's personality.
"Why don't we go to Shangma Street today and look at the situation from house to house!" Chen Shishi suggested in a pretentiously relaxed tone.
When he came to Shangma Street, Chen Shi looked up at the broken surveillance system. Lin Dongxue said, “The surveillance here has been repaired. There were a total of five pawnshops in the surveillance blank area on the night of the incident. Which one should start the investigation?”
Chen Shi casually pointed, "Let's start with this one!"
The owner of this pawnshop didn't know anything about the situation that day. He said that Shangma Street was dark at night and didn't notice anyone passing by.
"Do you know that Boss Shen is closer to the owner of which pawnshop?" Chen Shi asked.
The boss chuckled, "The pawnshop owner on this street is both a peer and an opponent. No one can get close to each other. After all, peers are enemies! Boss Shen and I are general friends at best, and we usually meet each other. Just say hello."
"Then do you know that the "Mountain Residence XX Picture" in Boss Shen's hand was targeted by Lie Guoxiao?"
Upon hearing Lie Guoxiao’s name, the boss showed a chilling expression, and said: “Don’t dare to talk about this, I don’t want to cause trouble, you should ask elsewhere!”
