    At the request of Chris, everyone asked all the actors to leave, and the gallery returned to silence.  Chris's friend, the woman was very puzzled and asked what happened in the exhibition hall. Chris told her that it was all right and asked her to rest in his office for a while.  Women like to be quiet, nodding, Chris sent the woman into the office and left, then closed the office door.

    Liang Xi suggested: "Should I first check whether the oil painting has been stolen?"

    Chris said: "There is no need for this. Most of the paintings on display here are my own paintings. If someone hires actors to steal my oil paintings, I will be deeply honored. The rest of the oil paintings are not very famous, but  Very artistic oil paintings, one painting is about 2,000 to 20,000 pounds."

    Poppy looked at his phone and asked Chris, "What's your friend's dad's name?"

    "Cton."

    Bobby flipped over the phone: "An oil painting by Cotton was bought at an auction last month for two million pounds."

    Chris couldn't believe it, and almost broke his voice: "Impossible."

    "look by youself."

    Chris took the phone and saw it clearly, and then petrified on the spot. The four oil paintings on loan today are Ketton's works in his later years, and the estimated price of each oil painting is about 10,000 pounds.  Because of Ketton's death, some collectors became interested in Ketton's oil paintings.  But the price has not gone up yet, after all, there are many people who learn oil painting.  Although many people draw well, too many people draw well.  There is no value in not creating a genre yourself, and now there are many modern painters, and it is impossible to jump to two million.

    But someone really bought this oil painting for two million pounds.

    If the theft cannot be recovered, Chris must be liable for compensation.  It turned out that even if the gallery was burned, Chris could deal with it with more than 100,000 pounds.  And because of the accurate value of Keton's oil painting, Chris is likely to pay 8 million pounds in compensation.  Chris thought that the total price of the oil painting was not high, so he did not buy insurance at all, and the gallery did not have anti-theft equipment.  After all, in Chris's view, if a thief steals his oil paintings, it is a very decent thing.

    Why doesn't Chris know about the auction of 2 million?  One is because oil paintings are sold by collectors, not by friends of Chris.  The second reason is that the auction was held in an island country in the Pacific Ocean, and there was no publicity.  The third reason is that two million pounds is not the highest lot, and everyone is more willing to discuss a gemstone that has been auctioned for 10 million pounds.

    Maybe it was reported locally in Denmark, but Chris has been in the UK, and his friends didn't mention it.  Otherwise, Chris would never borrow paintings.

    Liang Xi said: "Go and have a look." What are you doing stupidly?

    Chris hurriedly walked towards the small hall, which was specially prepared for Keton, and all four paintings were there.  After Chris' inspection, Chris told Liang Xi and Bobby: "Fake, obviously fake."

    In fact, Liang Xi and Bobby can also see that this is a fake, because there is a small "hot dog" in the lower right corner of the oil painting, and the hot dog is composed of one word: fake.

    Bobby came up with a bad idea: "Let's cut out the bottom section and tell your friends that your oil painting is always this long."

    Liang Xi sneered: "Then I have to order four picture frames, which is a lot of money."

    "Stop." Chris: "I don't feel right."

    Liang Xi said: "I didn't feel right at first."

    "Originally?"

    Liang Xi said: "My first reaction was that your friend colluded with the thieves, and even the auctioneer, and arranged the auction after learning that you wanted to borrow the oil painting. Today the oil painting is stolen, and you have to face huge compensation. But I found that  Your friend doesn't care."

    Poppy asked, "Can a fake be insured? We insure the fake, throw it away, and plant it on the thief."

    Liang Xiyi pointed: "Go and play by yourself."

    Bobby: "No, hum." Only myself is trying to solve the problem.  The problem has already occurred, so don¡¯t worry about how the problem occurred, and find a way to solve the problem.  Liang Xi, you said that it has nothing to do with Chris's friend, so can you chase back the oil painting?

    Liang Xi said: "The four obvious fakes, it seems that I don't want you to get away with it, it seems that I want others to know that Ke Dun's painting was stolen. If your friend is an accomplice, it is too suspicious and too straightforward. Could it be your friend?  What about the people around you?"

    Liang Xi thought about it, and said, "You can take a gamble and explain it clearly to your friend, maybe your friend will forgive you."

    "Eight million, how can you forgive? How can you forgive?" Chris asked back.

    Liang Xi pointed at Bobby: "Shut up."

    "Cut!" A group of poor people, eight million pounds is only enough to buy a private jet, what can they do?

    &nbsp??In the eyes of money launderers, it is two million pounds, and the price can even be raised further.  The risk of the second person to eat crabs is much lower than the first person to eat crabs.  This oil painting will become a favorite product of many professional money laundering companies.  Diamonds are worthless, but merchants give them value, and diamonds represent love, so diamonds are priceless.  "

    Liang Xi said: "The best way for girls to deal with menstruation is to drink hot water. But why are boys who let girls drink hot water criticized by the society? Even straight men have become a derogatory term now? The reason is because of hot water.  Water is free, and brown sugar and ginger water is not worth the money. This is not acceptable. It is not in the interests of businessmen. Therefore, the behavior of drinking hot water during menstruation must be severely cracked down. After years of bombing straight men, the health products are not very effective.  Because it costs money, it becomes a sign of whether a boyfriend loves his girlfriend or not, and whether his emotional intelligence is high. And many people have accepted this concept."

    Liang Xi said: "According to my analysis, after the first person to eat crabs fired Keton's oil paintings to two million, Keton's oil paintings became the first choice for the next person to eat crabs. It is worthless, but  Someone gave it a value of two million. Keton's daughter didn't know that her father's painting was so valuable, but in fact she only sold it for a little money. It didn't have much value in her hands,  It is also impossible for someone to pay two million to buy a painting from her. A large amount of money is needed for laundering money."

    Liang Xidao: "The wholesale price of Ke Dun's paintings is 10,000 yuan, and the retail price is 2 million yuan. There is no security, no insurance, and it's hell if you don't get caught by bad guys."

    Bobby asked, "Do you want to take care of this?"

    Liang Xi shook his head: "I don't think Thresh intended to ask me to investigate. Maybe he didn't expect that there was a handsome detective beside him, maybe he thought the police were more reliable than me."

    During the conversation, Chris went out and apologized to the two: "Today's art exhibition can only be here, thank you for coming."

    Liang Xi and Bobby nodded: "We are all friends, don't see outsiders."

    Bobby reminded: "Should Liang Xi be involved in the investigation?"

    Chris said: "I talked to the police detectives. The white-collar crime investigation department is in charge of this case. They are unwilling to allow civilians to accompany the investigation." Of course, Chris knew that the possibility of the police recovering the oil painting was unlikely, but Chris had a team  He wants his team to handle it.  In addition, Chris is a little afraid of Liang Xi. Once Liang Xi gets involved too deeply, it is easy to dig out his identity.  After all, Keton has something to do with his past.  Ordinary people may not be able to find the flaws in it, but Liang Xi is different, this guy's brain circuit is very strange.

    Taking advantage of yesterday, Liang Xi hurt his own Menghaika plan.  Forced himself to start a backup plan, showdown to the police with the face of a bad guy.  Chris didn't like it, but he had no other choice.  Chris had warned himself that he should overestimate Liang Xi, but yesterday he found that he still underestimated Liang Xi.

    In the most recent case, that is, the Junku theft case, I did not consider the variable Liang Xi.  Although the employer was satisfied that Junku was properly kept in the end, it was a failure for him.  Therefore, in the Menghaika plan, Chris specially made shackles for Liang Xi to ensure that even if Liang Xi reasoned out the core content of the plan, Liang Xi would not be able to change anything, and could only follow the route arranged by the hand of God

    Since Chris said that there is no need to help, everyone got in the car after a few words of politeness. Liang Xi habitually scanned the surroundings before getting in the car, because there were always a few stupid or smart thieves who would return to the scene to check.  It seems that Liang Xi has found the target.  Diagonally across the road, about forty meters away, there is an SUV parked against the shoulder of the road.  Liang Xi seemed to have always had this car in his memory.

    The suv is moving!  The tonnage of many cars is around two tons. Even if it is a five-ton bulletproof car, when the car is stationary, as long as the people in the car make a relatively large movement, the car will shake.  The shaking of the car meant that there were people in the car. Liang Xi remembered that the car had been parked for a long time, and the windows had been kept tightly closed.

    Why would anyone?

    ? According to the procedure, the co-pilot and chief bodyguard should get in the car last. Seeing that Liang Xi was not getting into the car for a long time, the chief bodyguard approached Liang Xi and looked at the SUV.  Liang Xi looked at the SUV, tilted his head and said, "Check it out."
