Several pawnshops kept secret about Lieguo Xiao’s misunderstanding of Boss Shen’s ancient paintings. Judging from the reactions of these bosses, they were clearly pretending to be confused and defending themselves.
Then Chen Shi and Lin Dongxue came to the Taiyang pawnshop. Standing in the cabinet was He Jun who had met once that day. An old man was working as a business. He Jun said, "Mr., you can't be worth 40,000 for this broken watch. "
"Please, this is a souvenir from the time I joined the army in the war. It was produced in the former Soviet Union and it hasn't been damaged until now. My wife urgently needs these forty thousand for the operation. I really can't make it together, otherwise I can't. Take it out." The old man begged.
He Jun sighed, "If you get it, then it counts as 40,000!"
When the money hit the old man's card, the old man thanked him and left with the ticket.
"This boss is quite righteous." Lin Dongxue commented in a low voice.
He Jun looked up and saw Chen Shi and Lin Dongxue standing at the door, and said, "Are you the policeman who was investigating the case on the other side that day? What can I do?"
"Understand something."
"Come in and sit down!" On the left hand side of the door, there is a sofa and a coffee table for meeting guests. He Jun graciously served tea and poured water, and sat down opposite the two of them. He smiled, "The police have come every day to find out what no?"
"The progress of the case is still not easy to disclose."
"Haha, the police will always use this rhetoric."
"It sounds like you have had a lot of dealings with the police?" Chen Shi said, "I looked through the files. There have been cases in this pawnshop before. The boss who named this store was killed. It was quite a twist. Case."
"Yes, I still have a fresh memory when talking about this. At that time, the police suspected that I came because I was impulsive when I was young, and because I was in jail for fighting. But as I grow older, my temper is gradually It's polished out. Look, when I was young, the tattoos used to show cool patterns were washed off." He Jun rolled up his sleeves to show them, and faint traces of tattoos could be seen on his white arms.
Chen Shi smiled, "I'll ask something business. On the evening of May 12, did you see someone walk into Boss Shen's shop?"
"Well... I answered this question. I stayed in the room with Jingjing that night. I don’t know if there is anyone outside. Who is okay staring at the street? This street has no dogs at night. It is deserted. Very, just a few pawnshops and sexual health supplies stores have their lights on."
"By the way, who is the boss, you and He Jingjing?"
"Of course it's her, I'm just a deputy manager, haha!"
"What's the relationship between you two?"
"It's hard to describe our relationship..."
At this time, a woman's voice said behind her: "He Jun and I are going to get a certificate next month. By then, they will be a legal couple."
Turning to see, it turned out that He Jingjing came back from the outside. She was dressed in an ordinary dress, carrying two supermarket bags, as if she had gone shopping, but Chen Shi found that the bag did not seem to contain vegetables. He vaguely saw a pair of rubber. Gloves.
"Jingjing, you are back!" He Jun greeted him.
"Take it to the refrigerator, and I'll cook later." He Jingjing handed the two bags to He Jun's hands and squeezed his eyes imperceptibly.
After He Jun left, He Jingjing sat down in his seat, lit a cigarette, leaned on the sofa and said, "Ask me if you have anything. He Jun and I live together. There are no secrets between each other."
"It doesn't matter to me. Anyway, I just understand the situation normally." Chen Shixin thought, He Jingjing dismissed He Jun, is it because he was afraid that he had said the wrong thing.
In fact, smart people are more likely to show their feet, because they think a lot, and Chen Shi decides to test He Jingjing.
He Jingjing glanced at Chen Shi, "I was thinking when I saw you that day, did we see you somewhere? I always think you are a bit familiar."
"It should be just your illusion, I have never been a thing... By the way, the information about Lie Guoxiao provided by you and us is very helpful. He does have a lot of paintings in his collection, and we suspect that the origins are not right."
Lin Dongxue was slightly surprised, why Chen Shi revealed the progress of the investigation, although there was nothing to keep secret.
"Will Lie Guoxiao be arrested?" He Jingjing asked with interest.
"I don't know this, but someone has been arrested."
"Who?"
"It's the guy who works for Boss Shen." Chen Shi's eyes sharpened, observing the subtle reaction on He Jingjing's face.
He Jingjing smiled and said, "What did he commit?"
"Perjury!"
Hearing these three words, the ashes in He Jingjing's hand shook on the table, she rubbed her fingers into the ashtray, and smiled again, "You can rest assured that I will not do perjury. What do you ask me? I'll just say anything."
This small reaction was enough to make Chen Shi doubt her, he stopped probing and asked other questions.
The conversation lasted for half an hour before the two of them left. Lin Dongxue said, "Do you doubt these two?"
"Don't you think they fit our position as a murderer?"
"Conformity is conformity..."
"I know there is no evidence, it was just a test just now."
The process of identifying a suspect is the accumulation of suspicion. At present, He Jingjing has a trace of suspiciousness in Chen Shixin.
"It turns out that you didn't come to investigate the case today. You came to test them. You thought these two were suspicious. Why do you have to ask them one by one? Why don't you come to them directly? Do you look like my brother? Just as cautious." Lin Dongxue smiled.
Chen Shi was slightly startled. He seemed to be a little too careful in order to cover up the fact that he knew these two people.
However, Lin Dongxue did not entangle this matter. She looked at the gloomy and rainy sky and said: "I suddenly remembered whether we can investigate the financial situation of these pawnshops. You said that the motivation is actually in disguise. Demand, if a person needs a large sum of money for emergency, then the TA may have criminal motives."
Chen Shi smiled and shook his head, "You understand too rigidly. I think the murderer is not short of money. If the conspiracy is because of an urgent need for money, then the "Mountain Residence XX Picture" is an idea. Loans, such ordinary economic needs can basically be solved."
"Then conversely suppose that the murderer sought Boss Shen to plot this matter not for money, for example, taking revenge on Lie Guoxiao."
"Why do you have such an assumption?"
"Because Boss Shen is about to'make confession' to Lie Guoxiao, will the murderer want to take advantage of this and move the boat along with Lie Guoxiao, but Boss Shen is timid and dare not agree. Is this speculation very innovative? !" Lin Dongxue waited for Chen Shi's praise with a smile on her face.
Chen Shi was stunned for a while, and the motorcycle rider who was monitoring them flashed in his mind last night. The real goal was Lie Guoxiao, or the property of Lie Guoxiao...
What is more valuable than an ancient painting, of course it is a bunch of ancient paintings!
