Chapter 10 Chapter 9 Mutual generation and mutual restraint
Terrible news came from Roche & Sons Electro-Mechanical Engineering, who had been robbed in the middle of the night by masked thieves.
It was night, Mr. Luo Guoji was still doing theoretical research in the office.
Mr. Luo has a lonely personality, and he is usually taciturn and doesn't like to talk too much. Probably ordinary scientists will have this weird temperament.Whenever he has inspiration, he will forget food and sleep, and bury his head in his research room day and night.
The masked thieves, probably three people, entered his office by climbing walls and breaking windows.
The office is divided into three rooms, the larger one is used for displaying style, there are desks for clerks and typists, and a complete set of sofas and coffee tables for customers to discuss business.Luo Guoji's research room is on the attic of the big office, and the room is full of instruments and all kinds of reference books. It is absolutely forbidden for anyone to enter his research room without permission.
Mr. Luo is old and has a hearing problem. For a scientist, hearing problems will help him concentrate more.
Three masked thieves climbed the wall and broke the window to enter the office. Mr. Luo didn't even hear a sound. Of course, the three thieves didn't expect that there were still people in the office at midnight.
After the thieves rummaged through boxes and cabinets, Mr. Luo finally came to his senses. He pushed the door out with an old-fashioned look, and stood on the railing of the attic looking down.
"What do you do?..." he asked.
The three thieves turned pale with fright, and one of the thieves hurried up the stairs, without any explanation, and violently knocked Mr. Luo unconscious with the butt of his gun.After about an hour or so, Mr. Luo woke up, and the thief had already passed away.
Mr. Luo called the police.The police detective team rushed to the scene to start investigation.
There is nothing valuable in the "Roche & Sons Electro-Mechanical Engineering Company", but all the documents have been turned upside down, the iron file cabinets with steel locks have also been pried open, and all the mechanical blueprints carefully designed by Mr. Luo over the years have been turned over. both.
There is a safe in the general manager's room, and the iron door of the safe also has traces of prying, but the thief did not break it open.
The detectives treated the case like a normal theft case.There is a procedure for them to handle the theft case, first of all, to collect fingerprints and footprints on the ground.But the three thieves looked like veterans, all wearing gloves, without leaving any fingerprints, and some documents scattered on the ground were trampled, but they were printed with footprints.
Because the three thieves were all masked, Mr. Luo couldn't tell their faces, and the police were helpless.
After the loss investigation, it can be said that there is no special loss. A female employee’s watch that was forgotten on the desk was taken away; the radio on Robin’s desk was missing; and a fountain pen was also stolen. Walk.The lost items were all scattered, not really valuable things.
But the strangest thing is that the treasure blueprint of electronic anti-theft equipment of the "World Expo" in the filing cabinet was also stolen at the same time.
The police decided that this was an ordinary theft, and the blueprint was like waste paper, and the thief probably took it casually to wrap something.
Mr. Luo was wounded on the top of his head with a gun butt, and some blood flowed out. He was sent to the surgical hospital for several stitches.
The news was first told by Luo Peng to Jin Jinghua, and then by Jin Jinghua to Qiu Yisen. Qiu Yisen was very surprised. It is not surprising that three masked thieves stole the office of a company. The problem is "Roche Father and Son Electronic Mechanical Engineering Company" The file cabinet in the office was pried open, and there were many blueprints carefully designed by Luo Guoji in the cabinet, but only the blueprint of the treasure exhibition room design of the "World Expo" was lost.If the three masked thieves stole for that blueprint, it would be no ordinary theft.
Why do ordinary thieves need to cover their faces?This is one of the biggest questions.
The masked thief climbed over the wall and broke the window to hurt people, and only stole some worthless things. This is the second question.
There are many blueprints in the filing cabinets, and only the design blueprints of the expo were taken away to pack things. This is the third question!
Qiu Yisen imagined that the theft of property was just a cover-up, and the purpose of the masked thief was the anti-theft design blueprint of the exposition.So, who did this?Camel?Or is it Zuo Luntai?
Yi Luotuo and Zuo Luntai have spent their entire lives in the rivers and lakes, and they don't know how many earth-shattering cases they have done. It is impossible for them to use such inferior methods!If his judgment is correct, Luo Tuo and Zuo Luntai have already understood the anti-theft design and structure of the Expo. They have already progressed to stealing treasures by using power outages, and it is impossible to go back and study the blueprint again.
After thinking over and over again, Qiu Yisen had a lot of worries, and he felt uneasy instead.If the purpose of the three masked thieves was on the blueprint of the electronic anti-theft equipment, and it was not done by Camel or Zuo Luntai, then there would be a fourth person who attempted to steal the treasure.Isn't that bad?
Qiu Yisen needed to know the actual situation, so he hurried to the "Roche & Sons Electro-Mechanical Engineering Company", hoping to conduct an on-site investigation.
At this time, Luo Peng was receiving all kinds of condolences from relatives and friends, and was very busy.
The police have collected all kinds of reference materials and left. The male and female staff and workers in the office are helping the young general manager to sort out the messy documents and sundries after the robbery.
Judging from all the signs at the scene, it was done by a layman. An old man like Luo Guoji would fall in the wind. Does he need to be stunned with a murder weapon?Qiu Yisen thought to himself, if the three thieves were not aiming at stealing money, they might have abandoned the stolen goods in the building or near the building.If you want to prove that this idea is correct, you can look for it nearby, and maybe you can find the stolen goods.
Qiu Yisen walked around the house to understand the surrounding environment.What's the ideal place to ditch your stolen goods?That must be the most convenient place and not easy to be found.
Qiu Yisen pushed out the window and looked out. There was a small park directly opposite the building.The area is small, with a green lawn, surrounded by seats for tourists to rest, and a blue flower marble fountain in the center.The shape of the design is very novel, like many stacked bowls.The place where the water is sprayed is on the top of a giant bowl that is held up the highest. After the water is sprayed out, it is contained by a large saucer, and then falls to the surrounding bowls and dishes, and then sprinkles from the bowls and saucers into the big pool.
If, say, the three masked thieves had fled towards that place, they might have left the loot in the park.Qiu Yisen thought to himself.
At this time, Jin Yanni, He Like, and Lin Miao heard that Qiu Yisen was in "Luo's Father and Son Electronic Mechanical Engineering Company", and they also hurried over. For Qiu Yisen, Lin Miao was busy inquiring about various antique shops and looking for craftsmen who were good at forging antiques.He took Qiu Yisen to almost all the antique shops that his father had business dealings with, but there was no result.On this day, he made a new discovery, and with great excitement, he rushed to the "Jin's Enterprise Building" non-stop, found Jin Yanni and He Like, and hurriedly followed them here. He found Qiu Yisen, out of breath, and said, "I found a counterfeit antique expert, who specializes in imitating antiques..." "Let's put aside the issue of antiques for the time being, and help me around this building first. Pay special attention to any places where stolen goods can be stored. If you find anything, please notify me immediately!" Qiu Yisen ordered. Immediately, Jin Yanni, He Like, and Lin Miao looked at each other, wondering what Qiu Yisen was up to? "'Roche & Sons Electro-Mechanical Engineering Company' was robbed. Only a radio, a watch and a fountain pen were lost. I think the thieves took these things as a cover-up, and it was of no use. , may be thrown around here, we will find it to confirm it!" Qiu Yisen explained. Jin Yanni still couldn't figure it out, and said, "Since it's useless, why would they take it away?" "To cover up their real purpose of stealing!" "What is the real purpose?" Qiu Yisen whispered to Jin Yanni: "It is the blueprint for the electronic anti-theft design of the expo!" "You think it's too scary, don't you?" "It's because it's scary, so we need to confirm it quickly!" After a while, Jin Yanni and the others made a discovery. They took out a fountain pen in the dirty gutter, and then found a women's watch in an envelope in the trash can, all of which were lost in Roche's office. Qiu Yisen handed the found fountain pen and watch to Luo Peng, and said: "There is still a radio missing, but I believe that we will find it soon!" Qiu Yisen taught Luo Peng to take him to the hospital where the old Mr. Luo Guoji lived, hoping to know the appearance of the three masked thieves, and to investigate the details of the thieves from the other hand.Luo Peng immediately led Qiu Yisen and others to the hospital to see his father, but old Mr. Luo could not provide any new information. What he said had already been recorded in the police station. When leaving the hospital, Lin Miao asked Qiu Yisen, "Do you still need experts in counterfeit antiques?" Qiu Yisen said: "Of course it is necessary, but the current occurrence of this matter is more important..." "It's strange that the expert actually sewed a pearl shirt, which is quite similar to the one exhibited at the World Expo!" When Qiu Yisen heard this, he immediately became nervous and said anxiously, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" "I have no chance, you forced me to dig out the gutter and dig through the trash can!" "Stop talking, lead me there!" While waving goodbye to Luo Peng, Qiu Yisen pushed Lin Miao into the car like a chicken. "Let's agree on the conditions first. I'll help you see that expert, and you take me to see that Miss Zhu..." Lin Miao continued. "Don't talk too much, let's buy time!" Qiu Yisen urged. Lin Miao shook her hands and refused to drive immediately, saying, "I must negotiate the terms first!" Jin Yanni was also anxious, she patted Lin Miao on the shoulder and said, "Uncle Qiu has always followed his word!" "Yanni! Are you willing to take responsibility?" Lin Miao asked solemnly. "Don't tell me you don't believe me?" "It's because I trust people too much that I got into a whole lot of trouble!" This sentence made He Like giggle, but it didn't make Qiu Yisen and Jin Yanni feel at ease. "Since that's the case, I won't care about Miss Zhu's problems in the future!" Jin Yanni said pretending to be angry. Lin Miao stayed for a while, feeling bored, started the car and drove slowly out of the city.
Lin Miao was entrusted by Qiu Yisen, and based on his father's contacts with antique dealers, he went all over the antique shops in Mexico City, trying to find an expert in counterfeit antiques. "Sara Kee Antique Shop" is one of the best antique dealers in the business.The owner of the store has a lot of friends and is good at talking. Most of the customers are people like Lin Bianshui. It can be said that there is no unsuccessful negotiation for similar transactions.As a result, "Saraji" was jealous of its peers, and rumors arose because of this. Some people said that "Saraji" was best at making fake antiques. With his father's friendship, Lin Miao dealt with "Sara Ji" again and again, but who would admit that his shop sold fake products?Lin Miao hit the wall again and again, but in order to please Qiu Yisen, she made persistent efforts and continued to walk among the antique dealers. An antique dealer who was hostile to "Sara Ji" gave Lin Miao a clue.Living in a certain place in Sanshui Village on the outskirts of the city, there lived a disabled engraver Li Yitang, who was said to have made counterfeit antiques for "Sara Ji". Li Yitang has a history of eating antiques for more than 30 years. He started as an apprentice and became a carpenter. He also opened a shop by himself. Maybe he did too many immoral things. One year, a fire burned down his shop, and Li Yitang was also on the scene of the fire. He fell and injured his leg, became disabled, his wife burned to death, and his concubine fled in a sweep. It can be said that the family died. After that, Li Yitang relied on helping others.Due to the inconvenient movement of the disabled legs, the carving and inlay work was done at home. For a while, Li Yitang's life seemed to be facing a desperate situation, but since he got in touch with "Sara Ji", he became richer day by day, so the rumors spread like wildfire. The car rushed to Sanshui Village on the outskirts of the city. "Did you really find Li Yitang sewing a pearl shirt?" he asked Lin Miao. "Not only has the pearl shirt been sewn, but the Dragon Ball cap has also been made!" Lin Miao replied as if something was going on. "Could it be that Li Yitang did this publicly?" "No! Li Yitang has his own carving room, which is absolutely forbidden for anyone to enter, even his family members, and there is a sign saying no to visit in front of the door!" Lin Miao explained: "Yesterday, I After getting Li Yitang's address, I made a special trip to visit him. Li Yitang happened to be working in his engraving room. The maid reported that Li Yitang saw my business card and knew that my father was an antique client. The studio I worked in was crowded with multiple households, and it seemed a bit mysterious. Li Yitang had a disabled leg and walked out with a cane. He invited me to drink tea in the living room. We were talking. The maid and the girl are fighting..." "Did the maid fight with the girl?" He Like asked with a smile. "Although Li Yitang is physically disabled, he is a vulgar pervert. There are maids and maids in his family, but they both have affairs with Li Yitang. They quarrel and even fight, all for the sake of jealousy!" "It's not easy for a disabled person to be so romantic!" He Like said. "Are the maid and girl pretty?" Jin Yanni asked curiously. They seem to be attracted by Li Yitang's story, forgetting the difficulties they are facing now. Lin Miao said: "That maid is an out-and-out 'old hen'! She has chicken skin and white hair and missing teeth, but that girl is a slug. Just looking at the two of them is enough to make people laugh!" "Is this called enjoying the blessings of equal people?" He Like chuckled. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, why not?" Jin Yanni said. Overseas Chinese in Mexico City have a strong sense of fellow countrymen, and almost all of them in Sanshui Village are overseas Chinese from their hometown.The area of Sanshui Village is not large, at most fifty or sixty households. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, but the scenery is very beautiful. The entrance of the village is a newly opened road, and the buildings are scattered on both sides of the mountain, like a trapezoid. It seems that there are garden houses, but also Chinese-style buildings, carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions and pavilions... Lin Miao stopped the car at the entrance of the village, led Qiu Yisen and others up the stone steps, and went around to the place where the end of the street on the first floor was facing Liuxi, which was Li Yitang's residence. Lin Miao didn't press the doorbell, he opened the door and led Qiu Yisen and the others inside.He said: "There is no need to ring the bell, 'One monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, and three monks have no water to eat!' Who told Li Yitang to enjoy the blessings of all people? Maids and maids all became his. Xiaoxing, so the inside and outside of the house are all messy, and there is no one doing anything at all!" Sure enough, no one even cares about the door of the house, and you can enter by pushing the door. The layout in the living room was also very crude, and it was unbelievably dirty, with torn cotton wadding exposed in several places on the sofa chairs. "Is there anyone in the house?" Lin Miao asked with a loud voice. But there was no response in the house, it was quiet, it seemed like an empty house. Qiu Yisen kept looking around. "Strange, it seems that no one is there. Could it be that they are all out? It must be that the two precious women quarreled again, and the quarrel went outside!" Lin Miao said to herself. "Where is Li Yitang's studio?" Qiu Yisen asked. "Where!" Lin Miao pointed casually, and there was a door in the passageway of the living room. A black curtain was hung on the door, which just covered the door. "It seems very mysterious!" Qiu Yisen opened the black curtain and pushed the door with his hands. The strange thing was that the door was only ajar and was not locked.This room seems to have been remodeled before. The walls are more than a foot thick. Besides the wooden door, there is also a big iron gate. When the iron gate is closed, the wooden door cannot be pushed open at all. That's why Lin Miao called it "" The reason for overlapping households". If it is an ordinary sculptor, why does it need to be so mysterious?Obviously, Li Yitang was doing illegal activities. The iron gate was not locked either, and they could easily enter the room. The room is quiet and gloomy, no one is inside, a forty-light bulb hanging from the ceiling is still on, and there are many sculptures and stone statues erected around the walls around the room, most of them are for the cemetery. Yes, there are also stone lions and tortoises holding steles, which are probably part of the antiques forged by Li Yitang. Use it to deceive foreigners, probably the value is quite high. In the center of the room, there are two huge work tables, which are all piled up with "work of art", dazzling and messy, with everything.But most of them are incomplete, roughly broken antiques, carving utensils, metal furnaces, electric welding utensils sent for repairs, and all kinds of pearls and jades are scattered here and there. "Strange! Li Yitang is not in this studio either!" Lin Miao murmured. "Maybe he has run away!" Jin Yanni said smartly. The most important thing for Qiu Yisen was to look for the pearl shirt and a dragon ball hat sewn by Li Yitang, but he searched all over the room, but found nothing. "You said that Li Yitang is making fake dragon ball hats and pearl shirts. Where is it?" He asked Lin Miao. "Strange, the pearl shirt was placed on the wooden table, and the dragon pearl hat was worn on the head of a stone statue, and covered with gauze..." Lin Miao kept looking around. "Perhaps what Jin Yanni said is right, Li Yitang took those two counterfeit items and ran away after hearing the news!" "Could it be that you have leaked the news?" He Like blamed Lin Miao. "Impossible, I left here and went to the 'King's Enterprise Building'!" "Who found out that you entered this studio?" Qiu Yisen asked. "No!" Lin Miao said with certainty: "Li Yitang's two women had a quarrel, and Li Yitang rushed out to try to persuade the quarrel. I sneaked in to take a look at it, and stayed for a minute at most. No one noticed!" "This is strange, why did it disappear? The whole house was empty, and even Li Yitang and his two women disappeared at the same time!" Qiu Yisen scratched his scalp, hoping to find out the answer. "Maybe it's because of your poor eyesight, there are no such two things in the room!" Jin Yanni said. "I can swear to God, I can see very clearly that the dragon ball hat is worn on top of a stone statue, the pearl shirt is placed on a wooden table, and there are needles and threads connected together! The threads are not removed!" Lin Miao In a hurry, I can't wait to cut open my heart and liver for everyone to see. "What is the degree of forgery of the two counterfeit products? Are they similar to those exhibited in the World Expo?" Qiu Yisen asked. "The fake can be confused with the real!" Lin Miao said. "Who would have entrusted Li Yitang to make the forgery?" Qiu Yisen frowned, and soon thought of Zuo Luntai and Luo Tuo, only these two people were the most suspected. "Wait!" Qiu Yisen suddenly told everyone to be quiet, he turned his head sideways, concentrated, as if he had discovered something. "I seem to hear someone groaning in this studio." Immediately, everyone quieted down, concentrated and listened carefully. Qiu Yisen picked up a carved steel knife and tapped it along the mud brick wall. "Uncle Qiu, I seem to hear moans coming from this side!" Cup Miao pointed to a few broken stone statues lying down, patted a wall and said, "Look, there are bloodstains on the ground!" Qiu Yisen and Jin Yanni hurriedly chased after him.Sure enough, there were bloodstains on the ground, but it had already been trampled on, and the sound of groans came from inside the wall, which was very weak.Tap along the position of the hollow brick, test the size of the secret door, and search for it along the cracks of the brick, but no switch is found. Lin Miao couldn't wait any longer, he raised his hand and slapped the wall. "Hi! Is anyone in there?" he called out. There was no response from inside the wall, and the slight voice was still moaning. Qiu Yisen tried to push hard on the wall from various angles in a tentative way, but he didn't push it away. He tried to pry on the cracks in the wall with a carving knife. Well, there is a brick in the crack of the wall. If you tap it lightly, the whole brick can be taken out. There is an iron bolt inside, and a fastened iron ring is tied to it. Pull it out, and the door The secret door can be activated. The secret door was opened, and the inside was pitch black. With the light from the outside, one could see a row of wooden shelves stacked with various antiques. A person was lying on the ground, moaning intermittently. "Help carry him out!" Qiu Yisen said, and got into the room first. "Ah, isn't this Li Yitang?" Lin Miao called out. Li Yitang was dragged out of the secret room, and there was a huge wound on the top of his head, where he was hit with a blunt instrument, bleeding for a while, and the blood stains had solidified at this time. He was dragged out of the secret room, breathing fresh air, as if he had escaped from death, his eyes widened, and he couldn't stop looking at the strange faces in front of him. "Who are you?" He asked nana. "We rescued you from the secret room, who locked you in?" Qiu Yisen threw Li Yitang's two walking sticks out of the secret room, switched on the lighter, looked for the light switch, and turned on the light. It's on. Li Yitang seemed unwilling to answer their questions, he just faltered and said, "How did you get in? Where are the people in the room?" "Your two wives are all missing, maybe they ran away in a sweep, we didn't see anyone when we entered the house!" Lin Miao said. "I seem to have seen you before!" Li Yitang said. "I came here in the morning. At that time, your two wives were arguing, and you were busy trying to persuade them!" "Well, by the way, you once sneaked into my studio..." Jin Yanni saw that Li Yitang was injured on the top of his head. The blood had already solidified, but after moving, the wound was opened and the blood started running down again. "You were injured, it's more important to heal the wound first!" she said. "Do you need to find a doctor?" Herik volunteered. "No!" Li Yitang quickly waved his hands and said, "Small injury, it's not a problem. I want to ask you guys, what are your plans for breaking into my studio?" Qiu Yisen has already inspected the situation in the secret room. It can also be called a storage room. Almost all of Li Yitang's counterfeit antiques are stored in it. It has a secret door designed for fear of being found out. Li Yitang was unexpectedly beaten The wound was also locked in this secret room, the air inside it was not circulated enough, if not discovered in time, Li Yitang would have suffocated to death, what a shame. "You are an expert in counterfeit antiques. Tang, Song and Ming dynasties antiques can be carved out by you!" Qiu Yisen took out a Song Dynasty Jade Buddha in his hand and asked Li Yitang. "Manufacturing antiques is not against the law. Those who wish to take the bait are equivalent to works of art. Naturally, arty people will buy them!" Li Yitang replied confidently. "But some people say that it is not unusual for you to imitate the pearl shirts and dragon ball hats that are on display at the expo!" Qiu Yisen said. "It's nothing! This is my studio. Can you see the pearl shirt and dragon ball hat? Whoever spread the rumors will kill you!" Li Yitang categorically denied it, and even swore against the sky.However, it can be seen from Li Yitang's appearance that something is wrong. He intends to deny it, and he seems a little flustered. "I've witnessed it with my own eyes. I can't deny it. You must have hidden it!" Lin Miao said seriously. "This is the only storage room I have. There are no pearl shirts or dragon ball hats in it!" Li Yitang shook his head and firmly denied, saying, "What are you guys doing? Blood spurting people, I want to call the police!" "We released you from the secret room and saved your life. We only hope that you can cooperate sincerely, and we will never make things difficult for you!" Qiu Yisen said. "We have nothing to work with..." "We can let you out, or we can lock you back in and let you suffocate to death!" Qiu Yisen threatened. "Do you want to murder...?" Li Yitang said nana. "The people who planned to kill you were the first, and we came later!" Qiu Yisen said, "We are not looking for you to forge the antiquities of the exposition, but we just want to know who commissioned you to forge it." "No such thing, I don't care about your intimidation!" Li Yitang still firmly denied it. "It's also very simple. I'll lock you back into the storage room. I believe you have already tasted the taste of suffocation!" Qiu Yisen said and immediately started, he grabbed Li Yitang's arms and thighs with both hands, like grabbing a chicken When he picked it up, he was about to throw Li Yitang into the secret room again. "I'll call for help..." Li Yitang struggled to say, his expression quite flustered. "That's what you've asked for. Someone can break your head, and I can break one of your arms, making you both crippled! In this way, you won't be able to carve any fakes in the future!" Qiu Yisen snapped his wrist , wringing Li Yitang's arm rattling. Li Yitang grinned his teeth and cried out in pain, but he still refused to tell the truth. Jin Yanni's heart was soft, and she was very puzzled. Maybe Li Yitang was wronged, so she pulled Lin Miao and said softly, "Did you really see the pearl shirt and dragon ball hat?" Lin Miao was furious and said, "I can swear to God..." Horik scratched his scalp, his eyes rolled around the room, and said, "Then why did it disappear?" "Maybe it was taken away by someone. Didn't you see that Li Yitang was beaten to death?" Lin Miao said smartly. "Since it was taken away by someone, why didn't Li Yitang admit it?" He Like asked the second question. "I don't know..." Qiu Yisen knew in his heart that what Lin Miao said was true, and it must be true that Li Yitang forged the pearl shirt and dragon ball hat, and this matter must have something to do with stealing treasures.That must be the method of "stealing the sky for the sun" by the treasure thief.The reason why Li Yitang would rather die to deny it is naturally because he knows that this is an illegal activity. When the treasure robbery incident happened, he might be implicated in the upper body. But there is one problem. Li Yitang was beaten and imprisoned in a secret room. It seems that there is an attempt to kill someone. Luo Tuo and Zuo Luntai never hurt anyone in any case. Could it be that this is the fourth party?Qiu Yisen's wisdom also became slightly confused, and the simple questions gradually became more complicated. He ruthlessly threw Li Yitang back into the secret room, and said, "You are impatient, so you can't blame others, right?" "Wait..." Li Yitang asked for forgiveness before Qiu Yisen closed the door.Qiu Yisen still closed the door of the secret room violently and unlatched it.He waited outside the door for Li Yitang's reaction. Li Yitang slammed on the door indoors and screamed strangely, but it was useless, only a slight sound could be heard outside. "Uncle Qiu, what should we do if we suffocate him to death?" Jin Yanni couldn't bear it and asked Qiu Yisen. "It doesn't matter, he won't die for the time being!" Qiu Yisen said. Lin Miao put her hands on her hips and said, "This Li Yitang is really old and cunning. It would be nice if he could be punished!" "What's the matter, since he made a fake pearl shirt, why was he not in the house, and was beaten and imprisoned in the secret room?" He Like said. "If my judgment is correct, it may have been taken away by someone!" Qiu Yisen said. "Who's going to take this?" "Of course someone who has a special conspiracy about the World Expo!" Qiu Yisen said. "I'm completely confused, I don't know what's going on!" Lin Miao said scratching her ears and cheeks. "You don't need to worry, Li Yitang will definitely confess, we will wait patiently for a few minutes!" After a while, there was a howling sound from the secret room. Li Yitang was greedy for life and afraid of death, but Qiu Yisen guessed it. He cried and begged for mercy, willing to confess truthfully. Qiu Yisen winked at everyone, but still waited with folded arms. "Let me out, I'll say anything!" Li Yitang slammed on the door and shouted, coughing endlessly. "Then let him out!" Jin Yanni eavesdropped and pleaded for Li Yitang. "This kind of person must make him suffer enough, otherwise it will cost us a lot!" Qiu Yisen said, unlatched the door for the second time, and opened the secret door.Li Yitang fell out, rolling all over the floor and coughing. "If you don't tell the truth again, I won't let you go!" Qiu Yisen said sternly. Li Yitang cried and mourned, only wishing to know the identities of Qiu Yisen and others first. Qiu Yisen said: "We are definitely not representing the police. We originally planned to entrust you to do one or two business transactions, but because you have no sincerity to cooperate, you have to use this method as a last resort!" "What business do you plan to entrust me with?" "Pearl shirt, dragon ball hat! The same two things!" Qiu Yisen said. Li Yitang was stunned, and once again stared at Qiu Yisen and the two men and a woman beside him in a daze, paying attention to their expressions, he was still puzzled.This proves that Li Yitang is cunning and cunning and has a shrewd and calm mind. "What do you want these two things for?" he asked. "Do you still need to investigate the reason for doing this kind of business?" Qiu Yisen spoke in a professional way. Li Yitang was forced to tell the truth.He said that the owner of "Sara Kee Antique Shop" introduced a distinguished customer who did not want to disclose his name, and entrusted him with a price of one thousand dollars to imitate pearl shirts and dragon ball hats. Pay 40%, and the money and goods will be settled on the delivery date, and the two are not related. The only condition is that it will not be disclosed to a third party.The other party's request is not high, as long as it is placed in the window, under the light, it will be completely similar in a blink of an eye! This is a good deal, for Li Yitang, it can be said to be easy and effortless.But things went wrong. Three days before the delivery date, after Lin Miao visited his residence, peeped at his studio and left, three burly men suddenly came, masked their faces with handkerchiefs, and broke into the house. In his studio, he was beaten and forced to open the storage room, and took away two counterfeit antiques. Li Yitang pointed at Lin Miao and said, "Before, I considered that you brought those three masked men, but now it seems that there are two ways..." "It's three masked thieves again!" Qiu Yisen was troubled, where did these three mysterious figures come from? "Why did it happen so coincidentally? It happened just after I left..." Lin Miao couldn't believe it, thinking that it was Li Yitang who was deliberately throwing blood at others. "I can say with certainty that, at the very least, these three people came here because you provoked them. They have nothing to do with each other, and they have no clues. Who would find me? And just went to the house?" Li Yitang had been in the "underworld" after all. Yes, suspicious clues have been found. "I want to ask, how did you find the door?" "The enemy of 'Saweiji Antique Store' pointed out, give me your address!" Lin Miao said. "Are you being followed?" "Shit, who is following me for what?" Qiu Yisen also became alert. According to Li Yitang's story, Lin Miao was being followed. The question is, who will follow Lin Miao?Who knew that Lin Miao was running errands for Qiu Yisen? "Could it be that all you know is that you were attacked by three masked men of unknown origin, took away the counterfeit pearl shirt, and then knocked you unconscious and locked you in the storage room?" Qiu Yisen asked. "I can swear to God, that's exactly what happened!" Li Yitang said firmly. "There was a robbery at home, are you going to call the police?" He Like asked. "Bah! Can I call the police for this kind of business? Isn't it asking for trouble?" Jin Yanni also expressed her opinion: "Maybe your two wives are the insiders for the thief. Otherwise, why did they both run away?" "Did they all run away?..." Li Yitang showed surprise. "How do you know they're all gone? . . . " "When we entered the house, there was no one there, so we went straight into your studio!" Jin Yanni said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have saved your life in time!" Li Yitang shook his hand and laughed and said: "Who wants the ugly woman who ran away? The two of them just had a quarrel, so they went back to their mother's house in a fit of anger! If they were internal thieves, they would have so many things to take, why would they need one?" What about the cheap counterfeit pearl shirts and dragon ball hats?" "Then according to your judgment, who did it?" Herik asked again. "Do you need to talk about it? It's the same route as the person who ordered these two antiques!" Li Yitang gradually regained his senses. He rubbed his throat with both hands and said, "Since we have all talked, we can make friends." , now I would like to invite everyone to drink a glass of wine, I wonder if you agree?" Lin Miao and others watched Qiu Yisen's reaction, and Qiu Yisen nodded secretly. Li Yitang pointed out that there are several bottles of fine wine in the drawer of his work desk, which are for drinking to refresh himself while working, because his mobility is inconvenient, so he asked He Like to do it for him. Li Yitang opened the wine bottle, drank two glasses first, and suddenly seemed to have changed his mood, even forgetting the injury on his head. "Let's not gossip, now you have lost the counterfeit product, and it's time for delivery, how do you deal with it?" Qiu Yisen asked. "It's just a matter of time. I can leave the processing overnight, and the delivery can be delayed by a day or two. It shouldn't be a problem!" Li Yitang answered, poured another glass of wine, and handed it to Qiu Yisen with both hands.Qiu Yisen waved his hand and declined. Li Yitang is really an old alcoholic, he can't stop talking after drinking, and he has two drinks in a row. "If I also need a set of pearl shirt and dragon ball hat, how long will it take to deliver?" Qiu Yisen asked. Li Yitang's eyes were burning, as if he had guessed Qiu Yisen's intentions, he showed a greedy look, deliberately hesitantly said: "It depends on the price you are willing to pay?". “你原先的那位主顾，和他相同的代价！但是得先交我的货，将他的延迟押后！”仇奕森说。 “不可以稍为增高吗？因为这是有违信用和道义的买卖！” “假如你能在最短的时间交货，我可以增加两百元！”仇奕森说。 李乙堂摇首说：“'又要马儿好，又要马儿不吃草。'那怎么行？这样怎会令客户满意呢？” “你好像有把握提前交货？” 李乙堂笑了，带着几分酒意说：“干我们这项买卖的，你该知道，总是有备份的！” 仇奕森一怔，听李乙堂的语气，他伪制的珍珠衫和龙珠帽，还不光只是制了一套，除了被三个蒙面贼夺走的之外，另外还有一套藏在室内。 仇奕森两眼灼灼，凭他的经验，又开始在室内打量。李乙堂是一个狡黠的人物，室内的秘密机关恐怕还不光只是那道暗门密室呢。 “别打歪王意，我们既然袒诚相见，就要规矩谈买卖，谁也别想占谁的便宜！”李乙堂机警地说。 “你想要多少钱？” “你瞧着办，可不要太小气就行了！” “给你一千五……” “我要现金！” “当然给你现金！” “现钱交现货！” 仇奕森摸摸身上，他所携的现款不多，便问林淼和何立克两人，大家合凑。林淼和何立克都是富家子弟，随时身上都会有着大把钞票的。 凑足一千五百美元现款，李乙堂数点过钞票之后，露出了笑脸，递手说：“那么，你们几位请到客室去稍坐，我去拿东西交货！” 仇奕森两眼一瞪，说：“李乙堂，我先给你警告，我们别来玩花样，后果会很严重！” 李乙堂拍拍胸脯说：“不会的，我李某人不是那种人，我今后还要吃这种饭呢！” 林淼和金燕妮都很不放心，迟疑着看仇奕森的反应。 仇奕森便说：“好的，我就相信你一次！” “我的行动不方便，可否将手杖还给我！”李乙堂指着被扔在地板上的手杖说。 何立克勉为其难地为他拾起手杖，掷在他的身畔。 “我们就守在门外，希望你能保守信用，否则后果是很难堪的！”仇奕森最后警告说。 “为什么不相信朋友呢？”李乙堂含笑。 仇奕森带着三个年轻人出了室外，就守在门前的黑布帘边。 金燕妮说：“这雕刻匠一脸老奸巨猾，真不可以相信！” 仇奕森迳自接过金燕妮手中的皮包，边打开边说：“我要借你的小镜子一用！” 仇奕森取出小镜子，一闪身又穿进密门里去。他将镜子伸进密室去，借以偷窥李乙堂的动静。 这时，李乙堂伏在地上，原来在他的工作桌的坐椅底下，有一块揭板，揭板底下是一道像棺材大小的槽穴，里面竟是“八宝箱”呢，满载膺品古玩。 李乙堂已经将一件缝制好的珍珠衫和一顶仿制的龙珠帽取出来了。他的行动不大方便，还要将揭板重新掩盖，坐椅归还原状…… 仇奕森失笑，很明显的，是当三名蒙面贼登门打劫时，李乙堂宁死不肯供出膺品珍珠衫和龙珠帽收藏的地方。他宁可打开壁上的秘密暗门，接受贼人的痛殴，然后被关进暗门之内。 这种人，要钱不要命！有了钱，什么事情都肯干的。 不一会儿，李乙堂扶着拐杖，一手提着珍珠衫，腋下挟着龙珠帽，一拐一拐地自他的工作室走出来了。 他说：“我李某人向来是言而有信的，只要条件谈妥，绝对遵守道义，现在可以交货了！” 仇奕森接过珍珠衫，惊叹不已，到底这是出自名家之手的膺品，真是可以以假乱真呢。 李乙堂最后很郑重地说：“你们要遵守道义，此事不足为外人道也！” “不过，以后若有好生意时，我们还是会关照你的！”林淼说。 仇奕森既取着膺品珍珠衫和龙珠帽，便用了一副包袱将它小心包起，然后向李乙堂告辞，离开了这位膺品专家的住宅。 金燕妮很觉纳闷，问仇奕森说：“你出高价购买这两件东西，有何作用呢？” 仇奕森说：“'先下手为强，后下手遭殃。'这是'作战'的道理，既然对方已经有了这种意图，我们何不先将它弄到手呢？” 金燕妮不懂。说：“怎样下手？” 仇奕森说：“我仍在考虑！” 他们四人重新坐进汽车时，仇奕森郑重地向林淼说：“我现在怀疑，你到李乙堂住宅来的时候，是否曾被人跟踪呢？” 林淼怔怔回答说：“我会被谁跟踪呢？” “这要你去回想，要不然，三个蒙面贼怎会赶巧在你离开李乙堂的住宅后便搜劫李乙堂的工作室呢？” “不可能有人跟踪我的！”林淼斩钉截铁地说。 “那么找寻膺品古玩专家的事情，你可曾向任何人泄漏过吗？”仇奕森又问。 “没有！”林淼非常肯定。 “可能是我们非常接近的人！” “除了我们几个人之外，金京华曾询问过这件事！” “金京华吗？”仇奕森两眼灼灼。 林淼说：“他想知道我为什么事情替你跑腿，跑得如此的起劲？” 金燕妮失笑说：“难道说，你们怀疑金京华会是蒙面贼吗？” “嗯，除了金京华以外，和我们最接近的，又能够刺探内幕的，还会有什么人？”仇奕森说。 “我相信没有！”何立克说：“你们不要怀疑到我的头上才好！” “你这个'秀才'！扮什么也不像，别说扮蒙面贼了！”金燕妮说。 四个人全笑了。
汽车已重返市区，来到“金氏企业大楼”大厦，大家还未下车时，仇奕森向他们关照说： “我们曾经到过李乙堂处，膺品珍珠衫和龙珠帽已经取到手，此事只有我们四个人知道，不论是谁，不得向第五者泄漏！” “仇奕森叔叔，你有什么作用呢？”金燕妮问。 “成败在此一举，我们一直是处在不利的地位上呢！”仇奕森答。 “你们究竟在搞什么名堂？我简直如丈二金刚摸不着头！”林淼说。 “等到水落石出之日，你自然会了解的！”仇奕森说。 林淼要求仇奕森带他去找朱黛诗，他说：“你委托我替你办的事情都已经搞妥，现在，你总不能再推托不带我去找那位朱小姐了！” 仇奕森说：“那位朱小姐不是一个简单的人物，必然行踪飘忽，我们假如堂皇登门拜访，定会吃闭门羹，因此，一定要出其不意的将她寻着！” “怎样算是出其不意呢？” “等于突击行动一样！” 林淼不乐说：“哼，你是打算黄牛了不成？” “年轻人不要急躁，'打草惊蛇'就会被跑掉了。倘若鸿飞冥冥，你就再也难找着了。只要有缘，我会为你做这个牵线人的！”
仇奕森让金京华通知“罗氏父子电子机械工程公司”，因为博览会展览室的电子防盗设计蓝图失窃，所以该会场的电子防盗设备需要变更设计，将它改装一番。 改装工作当然不简单，等于一个严重的病患要动大手术似的。博览会是属于国际性的公共场所，每日游人何止十数万人？因之，改装工作得在博览会打烊过后，在夜间进行。 “燕京保险公司”是负责两件中国宝物展出的安全的，同时，天坛展览室内的电子防盗设备，也是由“燕京保险公司”委托“罗氏父子电子工程公司”设计装设，所以，由“燕京保险公司”出面，具呈文向展览大会当局申请变更改装，金京华和罗朋奔走了一番，很快的就获得当局批准。 是夜，博览会打烊后，整个展览会场进行清场，守卫人员如临大敌似地，在各要道处作安全布置。 “罗氏父子电子机械工程公司”驶来了好几部工程车，工人到了不少，携来许多稀奇古怪的工具及各种零件。大小箱子及电器检查设备在天坛展览室的门前堆叠，工人熙熙攘攘的，工程车也不断地进出，显得十分忙碌。 罗国基因为受伤躺在医院里，所以这项改装工程就由他的儿子罗朋主持。 罗朋原是个花花公子，不学无术，长时间的花天酒地，早将所学的电子工程学抛到九霄云外了，让他主持变更设计，改装电子防盗工程，岂不就要手忙脚乱吗？好在“老狐狸”仇奕森像是一位“万能博士”、“万事通”，他没有事情不懂，“喧宾夺主”，竟由他指挥变更工作了。 当夜要开夜工，仇奕森早宣布过要赶通宵，准备工作做得非常完善。天坛展览室内外，均备有丰盛的酒食。简直像宴会似的，陈年的美酒，山珍海味，分为两席，一席设在天坛户外露天处，色香味俱佳；另一席摆在室内，是供在内部的工作人员果腹，提高工作情绪。 展览台上的玻璃橱罩经拆下后，那价值连城的珍珠衫和龙珠帽便移置在警卫室内，由金燕妮和何立克负责看管。 金燕妮天真活泼的竟披起了珍珠衫，戴上龙珠帽，独个儿玩“扮皇帝”，警卫室内装设有各种不同角度的电眼，由电视的萤幕上，可以看到天坛内外的活动情形，大家都忙碌得不可开交，只有罗朋和金京华两人相对饮酒，看他俩一杯来一杯往，总会喝得酩酊大醉为止。 金燕妮又将珍珠衫披在何立克的身上，将龙珠帽给他戴上。 “瞧你那副德性，穿上了龙袍也不像皇帝！”金燕妮笑得前仰后合的。 这时，户外起了一阵争吵之声，原来是金京华雇用的私家侦探华莱士范伦听说“罗氏父子电子机械工程公司”要变更设计，改装电子防盗设备，正在赶夜工，所以漏夜赶来了，但是把守外围的警卫禁止他踏进天坛，所以发生争吵。 这是仇奕森向警卫关照的，除了工作人员及“燕京保险公司”所指定的几个人之外，任何人禁止进内！ 华莱士范伦咆哮说：“我是受聘的私家侦探，是负责展览所安全的，为什么不许我入内？” 警卫说：“上面交代下来是如此，我们只是尽职责行事！” 华莱士范伦带着他的两名助手史葛脱和威廉士同来，三个人三张嘴，拉大了嗓子乱吼，几乎动武。 金京华不明白仇奕森为什么连华莱士也不信任，向仇奕森请示说：“华莱士受聘负责天坛展览所的安全，这展览所的电子防盗设备，是由他监工，眼看着它装置起来的，这时候的改装工作，不可以让他进来参观吗？” 仇奕森说：“华莱士对电子设备懂得多少？” “他根本不会懂的！” “那么看也是白看了？！” “所以说，这只是面子上的问题，防盗设备改装，负责安全的私家侦探被禁止进内，传闻出去，对华莱士来说，是非常难堪的！” 仇奕森趁此机会向金京华盘问说：“我叫林淼查访墨城的膺品古玩制造专家，你可曾有向任何人泄漏过？” “没有……”金京华呐呐回答。 “华莱士可知道这件事情？” “华莱士曾经向我问过，但是我们全不懂你的用意何在。”金京华终于承认曾经向华莱士吐露过。 仇奕森推窗外望，这时，华莱士仍在向警卫交涉，他要请金京华出来论理。仇奕森注意的是华莱士的两名助手，威廉士和史葛脱都是彪形大汉，他俩和华莱士合在一起正好三个人，三个蒙面贼循着他们的路线二度出现伤人，那么华莱士就不无可疑之处。 “华莱士可有派人跟踪林淼？”仇奕森再问。 “这我就不知道了……”金京华惶然答。 “除了华莱士之外，还有谁会知道我让林淼寻访膺品古玩制造专家呢？” “仇叔叔，难道说，你怀疑三个蒙面贼就是华莱士和他的助手？” “我们一直处在困境，不能不加以提防！” “不可能的，华莱士和我的交情甚厚，我们吃喝玩乐，称兄道弟，已经有多少年，可以说是肝胆相照的朋友，他怎会做出这类的事情？” “酒肉朋友经常会吃内扒外的！”仇奕森说。 “华莱士乔扮蒙面贼，偷袭罗氏电子公司，劫夺李乙堂的工作室？会有什么企图呢？噢！这是不可能的事情，仇叔叔，你太富于幻想了！”金京华直在替他的朋友辩论。 仇奕森说：“我并没有肯定我的见解，但是华莱士的行径不无使人生疑之处！” 不多久，警卫向金京华报告，华莱士坚持要他出外会面。 仇奕森便说：“既然如此，你就让他们进来参观就是了！” 华莱士的脸色铁青，向金京华埋怨不迭，说：“既然你完全相信仇奕森，那么又何需要雇用我这个私家侦探呢？假如在事后出了乱子，一切责任与我无干！” 金京华没敢辩驳，在朋友的道义上，他也很觉过意不去，实在说，仇奕森的用心何在？他也搞不大清楚呢！ 华莱士和他的两名助手走进了天坛展览室，眼看着那座展览室拆得七零八落，地底下装设的器材像乱棉絮似的，谁能找出它的头绪？拆卸开的零件整齐排列在展览台的两侧，好像是在展览那些零件一样。 仇奕森很注意华莱士的神色，自从三个蒙面贼出现之后，他几乎对每一个人都不大信任。 何立克扮“皇帝”穿着那件珍珠衫，头戴龙珠帽，也是闲着无聊，和金燕妮两人在警卫室内嬉耍，他俩嘻嘻哈哈的，似是两小无猜，也像是在打情骂俏。 警卫室和天坛展览室隔着有一道玻璃门，室外各处都布有电眼，由各种角度可以监视室外的动静，电视机一打开，萤幕上会映射出来。 华莱士的两名助手史葛脱和威廉士在玻璃门前鬼头鬼脑张望。金燕妮已经在萤幕上发现，立刻提出警告说：“任何人不得入警卫室，否则警铃会全面大响！” 史葛脱和威廉士非常不乐，但他俩没敢胡乱闯进去。 “为什么要改装防盗设备？”华莱士向罗朋盘问，因为这项设计，还是由他们的公司负责。 “我不知道，据金京华说，是因为我们的电子防盗设备的蓝图失窃的原因！”罗朋答。 “怎样改装呢？” “我也搞不清楚，你看，不是仇奕森一个人在主持吗，他指手划脚的，代替我负了全责！” “仇奕森会懂得电子设备的改装吗？”华莱士再问。 "I have no idea……" “呸！你为什么全不知道呢？到底电子防盗设备是由你们公司负责？还是由仇奕森负责？” “最大原因，是我们的蓝图失窃了，假如出了差错，我们公司就名誉扫地了！”罗朋沮丧说。 “仇奕森只是一名老江湖，值得你们如此相信吗？”华莱士说。 “金京华兄妹对他信任，他是我们的雇主，我无可奈何呢！” “窝囊废！” “反正出了问题，由他们自己负责！”
仇奕森的工作颇为认真，几乎每一件零件，他都仔细加以检查。其实仇奕森并非真懂，他是故作姿态，装模作样罢了。 华莱士终于忍不住，走到仇奕森的身畔探问：“你对电子机械工程，究竟懂得多少？” 仇奕森呵呵笑了，说：“在外面跑跑，四处混混，肚子里就需要有一本'百科全书'，任何事情不能全盘精通，也得加以了解，机械是刻板的学问，只要电路接通，没有故障，不会错到那里去！” “你如何改装呢？” 仇奕森说：“你不是外人，告诉你也无妨，一切还原，只是多添一些小玩艺进去！” “什么样的小玩艺？” 仇奕森故作神秘，向他附耳说：“触电！谁想觊觎这展览台上的两件宝物，误踏机关就会触电！” 华莱士暗暗咋舌，说：“真的吗？假如是购票参观的观众误踩机关，岂不要出人命了？” 仇奕森摇头道：“观众不可能会踩上展览台上去的，除非是不肖份子！” 这时，又有警卫进内报告，说是林淼先生要求拜会仇奕森先生。 华莱士听见林淼的名字就有点不自然，他又急切说：“林淼是一位新闻人物，他来干什么？” 仇奕森回答说：“林淼曾经到李乙堂处去过，他被人暗地跟踪，所以到这里来是辨认跟踪者的！” “李乙堂是谁？”华莱士怔怔地问。 “你不知道李乙堂其人吗？” 华莱士摇头。“李乙堂是干什么的？和我们有什么关连？” 仇奕森顿感诧异，假如说，华莱士范伦连林乙堂也不知道，那么他就和三个蒙面贼是不相干的了，这样岂非又走错了路线了吗？ 他两眼灼灼，猜不透华莱士的心思，凡是有“犯罪心理”的人，都容易露出破绽的，也是善于狡诈的，华莱士值得可疑吗？ 仇奕森吩咐金京华监工，然后走出展览室和林淼会面。
林淼这次是奉父亲之命，到博览会里来察看仇奕森等人兴建改造工程的。 林淼之抵达墨城，原是奉林边水之命监视骆驼和常老么之动静，并负责经济上的支援。至于林边水和骆驼之间的默契，进行盗宝的阴谋，林淼完全被蒙在鼓里，他的父亲没让他知道，阴错阳差，林淼竟和仇奕森、金京华他们厮混到一起去了，这事大出骆驼的意料之外。 林淼为追求朱黛诗，闹了天大的笑话，被人捉进警察局里去；林边水有庞大的家产，光只这么一个宝贝儿子，盗宝事件自然不希望林淼牵涉在内。骆驼认为他是个累赘，建议林边水把林淼带回家去，但是林淼哪里会肯呢？他非要寻着朱黛诗才甘休。 林边水非常气愤，林淼竟和仇奕森、金京华他们厮混到一起去了，岂不是“吃内扒外”吗？而且林淼帮同仇奕森跑腿，他的作为，对骆驼是绝对不利的。林边水有口难言，有苦说不出。 林淼是自幼被纵惯坏了，他怎的也不肯离开墨城回家去，林边水又能奈何他？ 常老么是根据林边水的指示介绍寻着李乙堂的，这位著名的膺品古玩制造专家，经常和林边水有接触，一般的古玩商还被蒙在鼓里！ 吃这一行饭的人，坏主意特别的多，比方说，某某古玩商向林边水推荐某一件古玩，林边水有意收购，李乙堂伪造的膺品捷足先登，“价廉物美”，横腰里抢夺过一票好买卖。反正林边水并不是什么真的古玩监赏家，他之所以收藏古玩，无非是标榜自己的家当和身价罢了。收藏一件膺品，和收藏一件“货真价实”的宝贝，对林边水没有两样。 古玩商与古玩商明争暗斗，要找着一位“冤大头”的主顾颇不容易，李乙堂自缝隙之中坐享“渔人之利”，关系颇为微妙。 骆驼盗宝需要有膺制的珍珠衫和龙珠帽，他的计划是以“偷天换日”的手法将宝物盗走，展览台上换上膺品，这是一种障眼法以拖延一段时日，好便于将宝物偷运出墨城去。 常老么得到林边水的指点寻着李乙堂，以千元的高价订制两件膺品，想不到林淼竟摸索着相同的路线，帮同仇奕森将两件“成品”先行取走。常老么到了
At this time, Jin Yanni, He Like, and Lin Miao heard that Qiu Yisen was in "Luo's Father and Son Electronic Mechanical Engineering Company", and they also hurried over. For Qiu Yisen, Lin Miao was busy inquiring about various antique shops and looking for craftsmen who were good at forging antiques.He took Qiu Yisen to almost all the antique shops that his father had business dealings with, but there was no result.On this day, he made a new discovery, and with great excitement, he rushed to the "Jin's Enterprise Building" non-stop, found Jin Yanni and He Like, and hurriedly followed them here. He found Qiu Yisen, out of breath, and said, "I found a counterfeit antique expert, who specializes in imitating antiques..." "Let's put aside the issue of antiques for the time being, and help me around this building first. Pay special attention to any places where stolen goods can be stored. If you find anything, please notify me immediately!" Qiu Yisen ordered. Immediately, Jin Yanni, He Like, and Lin Miao looked at each other, wondering what Qiu Yisen was up to? "'Roche & Sons Electro-Mechanical Engineering Company' was robbed. Only a radio, a watch and a fountain pen were lost. I think the thieves took these things as a cover-up, and it was of no use. , may be thrown around here, we will find it to confirm it!" Qiu Yisen explained. Jin Yanni still couldn't figure it out, and said, "Since it's useless, why would they take it away?" "To cover up their real purpose of stealing!" "What is the real purpose?" Qiu Yisen whispered to Jin Yanni: "It is the blueprint for the electronic anti-theft design of the expo!" "You think it's too scary, don't you?" "It's because it's scary, so we need to confirm it quickly!" After a while, Jin Yanni and the others made a discovery. They took out a fountain pen in the dirty gutter, and then found a women's watch in an envelope in the trash can, all of which were lost in Roche's office. Qiu Yisen handed the found fountain pen and watch to Luo Peng, and said: "There is still a radio missing, but I believe that we will find it soon!" Qiu Yisen taught Luo Peng to take him to the hospital where the old Mr. Luo Guoji lived, hoping to know the appearance of the three masked thieves, and to investigate the details of the thieves from the other hand.Luo Peng immediately led Qiu Yisen and others to the hospital to see his father, but old Mr. Luo could not provide any new information. What he said had already been recorded in the police station. When leaving the hospital, Lin Miao asked Qiu Yisen, "Do you still need experts in counterfeit antiques?" Qiu Yisen said: "Of course it is necessary, but the current occurrence of this matter is more important..." "It's strange that the expert actually sewed a pearl shirt, which is quite similar to the one exhibited at the World Expo!" When Qiu Yisen heard this, he immediately became nervous and said anxiously, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" "I have no chance, you forced me to dig out the gutter and dig through the trash can!" "Stop talking, lead me there!" While waving goodbye to Luo Peng, Qiu Yisen pushed Lin Miao into the car like a chicken. "Let's agree on the conditions first. I'll help you see that expert, and you take me to see that Miss Zhu..." Lin Miao continued. "Don't talk too much, let's buy time!" Qiu Yisen urged. Lin Miao shook her hands and refused to drive immediately, saying, "I must negotiate the terms first!" Jin Yanni was also anxious, she patted Lin Miao on the shoulder and said, "Uncle Qiu has always followed his word!" "Yanni! Are you willing to take responsibility?" Lin Miao asked solemnly. "Don't tell me you don't believe me?" "It's because I trust people too much that I got into a whole lot of trouble!" This sentence made He Like giggle, but it didn't make Qiu Yisen and Jin Yanni feel at ease. "Since that's the case, I won't care about Miss Zhu's problems in the future!" Jin Yanni said pretending to be angry. Lin Miao stayed for a while, feeling bored, started the car and drove slowly out of the city.
Lin Miao was entrusted by Qiu Yisen, and based on his father's contacts with antique dealers, he went all over the antique shops in Mexico City, trying to find an expert in counterfeit antiques. "Sara Kee Antique Shop" is one of the best antique dealers in the business.The owner of the store has a lot of friends and is good at talking. Most of the customers are people like Lin Bianshui. It can be said that there is no unsuccessful negotiation for similar transactions.As a result, "Saraji" was jealous of its peers, and rumors arose because of this. Some people said that "Saraji" was best at making fake antiques. With his father's friendship, Lin Miao dealt with "Sara Ji" again and again, but who would admit that his shop sold fake products?Lin Miao hit the wall again and again, but in order to please Qiu Yisen, she made persistent efforts and continued to walk among the antique dealers. An antique dealer who was hostile to "Sara Ji" gave Lin Miao a clue.Living in a certain place in Sanshui Village on the outskirts of the city, there lived a disabled engraver Li Yitang, who was said to have made counterfeit antiques for "Sara Ji". Li Yitang has a history of eating antiques for more than 30 years. He started as an apprentice and became a carpenter. He also opened a shop by himself. Maybe he did too many immoral things. One year, a fire burned down his shop, and Li Yitang was also on the scene of the fire. He fell and injured his leg, became disabled, his wife burned to death, and his concubine fled in a sweep. It can be said that the family died. After that, Li Yitang relied on helping others.Due to the inconvenient movement of the disabled legs, the carving and inlay work was done at home. For a while, Li Yitang's life seemed to be facing a desperate situation, but since he got in touch with "Sara Ji", he became richer day by day, so the rumors spread like wildfire. The car rushed to Sanshui Village on the outskirts of the city. "Did you really find Li Yitang sewing a pearl shirt?" he asked Lin Miao. "Not only has the pearl shirt been sewn, but the Dragon Ball cap has also been made!" Lin Miao replied as if something was going on. "Could it be that Li Yitang did this publicly?" "No! Li Yitang has his own carving room, which is absolutely forbidden for anyone to enter, even his family members, and there is a sign saying no to visit in front of the door!" Lin Miao explained: "Yesterday, I After getting Li Yitang's address, I made a special trip to visit him. Li Yitang happened to be working in his engraving room. The maid reported that Li Yitang saw my business card and knew that my father was an antique client. The studio I worked in was crowded with multiple households, and it seemed a bit mysterious. Li Yitang had a disabled leg and walked out with a cane. He invited me to drink tea in the living room. We were talking. The maid and the girl are fighting..." "Did the maid fight with the girl?" He Like asked with a smile. "Although Li Yitang is physically disabled, he is a vulgar pervert. There are maids and maids in his family, but they both have affairs with Li Yitang. They quarrel and even fight, all for the sake of jealousy!" "It's not easy for a disabled person to be so romantic!" He Like said. "Are the maid and girl pretty?" Jin Yanni asked curiously. They seem to be attracted by Li Yitang's story, forgetting the difficulties they are facing now. Lin Miao said: "That maid is an out-and-out 'old hen'! She has chicken skin and white hair and missing teeth, but that girl is a slug. Just looking at the two of them is enough to make people laugh!" "Is this called enjoying the blessings of equal people?" He Like chuckled. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, why not?" Jin Yanni said. Overseas Chinese in Mexico City have a strong sense of fellow countrymen, and almost all of them in Sanshui Village are overseas Chinese from their hometown.The area of Sanshui Village is not large, at most fifty or sixty households. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, but the scenery is very beautiful. The entrance of the village is a newly opened road, and the buildings are scattered on both sides of the mountain, like a trapezoid. It seems that there are garden houses, but also Chinese-style buildings, carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions and pavilions... Lin Miao stopped the car at the entrance of the village, led Qiu Yisen and others up the stone steps, and went around to the place where the end of the street on the first floor was facing Liuxi, which was Li Yitang's residence. Lin Miao didn't press the doorbell, he opened the door and led Qiu Yisen and the others inside.He said: "There is no need to ring the bell, 'One monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, and three monks have no water to eat!' Who told Li Yitang to enjoy the blessings of all people? Maids and maids all became his. Xiaoxing, so the inside and outside of the house are all messy, and there is no one doing anything at all!" Sure enough, no one even cares about the door of the house, and you can enter by pushing the door. The layout in the living room was also very crude, and it was unbelievably dirty, with torn cotton wadding exposed in several places on the sofa chairs. "Is there anyone in the house?" Lin Miao asked with a loud voice. But there was no response in the house, it was quiet, it seemed like an empty house. Qiu Yisen kept looking around. "Strange, it seems that no one is there. Could it be that they are all out? It must be that the two precious women quarreled again, and the quarrel went outside!" Lin Miao said to herself. "Where is Li Yitang's studio?" Qiu Yisen asked. "Where!" Lin Miao pointed casually, and there was a door in the passageway of the living room. A black curtain was hung on the door, which just covered the door. "It seems very mysterious!" Qiu Yisen opened the black curtain and pushed the door with his hands. The strange thing was that the door was only ajar and was not locked.This room seems to have been remodeled before. The walls are more than a foot thick. Besides the wooden door, there is also a big iron gate. When the iron gate is closed, the wooden door cannot be pushed open at all. That's why Lin Miao called it "" The reason for overlapping households". If it is an ordinary sculptor, why does it need to be so mysterious?Obviously, Li Yitang was doing illegal activities. The iron gate was not locked either, and they could easily enter the room. The room is quiet and gloomy, no one is inside, a forty-light bulb hanging from the ceiling is still on, and there are many sculptures and stone statues erected around the walls around the room, most of them are for the cemetery. Yes, there are also stone lions and tortoises holding steles, which are probably part of the antiques forged by Li Yitang. Use it to deceive foreigners, probably the value is quite high. In the center of the room, there are two huge work tables, which are all piled up with "work of art", dazzling and messy, with everything.But most of them are incomplete, roughly broken antiques, carving utensils, metal furnaces, electric welding utensils sent for repairs, and all kinds of pearls and jades are scattered here and there. "Strange! Li Yitang is not in this studio either!" Lin Miao murmured. "Maybe he has run away!" Jin Yanni said smartly. The most important thing for Qiu Yisen was to look for the pearl shirt and a dragon ball hat sewn by Li Yitang, but he searched all over the room, but found nothing. "You said that Li Yitang is making fake dragon ball hats and pearl shirts. Where is it?" He asked Lin Miao. "Strange, the pearl shirt was placed on the wooden table, and the dragon pearl hat was worn on the head of a stone statue, and covered with gauze..." Lin Miao kept looking around. "Perhaps what Jin Yanni said is right, Li Yitang took those two counterfeit items and ran away after hearing the news!" "Could it be that you have leaked the news?" He Like blamed Lin Miao. "Impossible, I left here and went to the 'King's Enterprise Building'!" "Who found out that you entered this studio?" Qiu Yisen asked. "No!" Lin Miao said with certainty: "Li Yitang's two women had a quarrel, and Li Yitang rushed out to try to persuade the quarrel. I sneaked in to take a look at it, and stayed for a minute at most. No one noticed!" "This is strange, why did it disappear? The whole house was empty, and even Li Yitang and his two women disappeared at the same time!" Qiu Yisen scratched his scalp, hoping to find out the answer. "Maybe it's because of your poor eyesight, there are no such two things in the room!" Jin Yanni said. "I can swear to God, I can see very clearly that the dragon ball hat is worn on top of a stone statue, the pearl shirt is placed on a wooden table, and there are needles and threads connected together! The threads are not removed!" Lin Miao In a hurry, I can't wait to cut open my heart and liver for everyone to see. "What is the degree of forgery of the two counterfeit products? Are they similar to those exhibited in the World Expo?" Qiu Yisen asked. "The fake can be confused with the real!" Lin Miao said. "Who would have entrusted Li Yitang to make the forgery?" Qiu Yisen frowned, and soon thought of Zuo Luntai and Luo Tuo, only these two people were the most suspected. "Wait!" Qiu Yisen suddenly told everyone to be quiet, he turned his head sideways, concentrated, as if he had discovered something. "I seem to hear someone groaning in this studio." Immediately, everyone quieted down, concentrated and listened carefully. Qiu Yisen picked up a carved steel knife and tapped it along the mud brick wall. "Uncle Qiu, I seem to hear moans coming from this side!" Cup Miao pointed to a few broken stone statues lying down, patted a wall and said, "Look, there are bloodstains on the ground!" Qiu Yisen and Jin Yanni hurriedly chased after him.Sure enough, there were bloodstains on the ground, but it had already been trampled on, and the sound of groans came from inside the wall, which was very weak.Tap along the position of the hollow brick, test the size of the secret door, and search for it along the cracks of the brick, but no switch is found. Lin Miao couldn't wait any longer, he raised his hand and slapped the wall. "Hi! Is anyone in there?" he called out. There was no response from inside the wall, and the slight voice was still moaning. Qiu Yisen tried to push hard on the wall from various angles in a tentative way, but he didn't push it away. He tried to pry on the cracks in the wall with a carving knife. Well, there is a brick in the crack of the wall. If you tap it lightly, the whole brick can be taken out. There is an iron bolt inside, and a fastened iron ring is tied to it. Pull it out, and the door The secret door can be activated. The secret door was opened, and the inside was pitch black. With the light from the outside, one could see a row of wooden shelves stacked with various antiques. A person was lying on the ground, moaning intermittently. "Help carry him out!" Qiu Yisen said, and got into the room first. "Ah, isn't this Li Yitang?" Lin Miao called out. Li Yitang was dragged out of the secret room, and there was a huge wound on the top of his head, where he was hit with a blunt instrument, bleeding for a while, and the blood stains had solidified at this time. He was dragged out of the secret room, breathing fresh air, as if he had escaped from death, his eyes widened, and he couldn't stop looking at the strange faces in front of him. "Who are you?" He asked nana. "We rescued you from the secret room, who locked you in?" Qiu Yisen threw Li Yitang's two walking sticks out of the secret room, switched on the lighter, looked for the light switch, and turned on the light. It's on. Li Yitang seemed unwilling to answer their questions, he just faltered and said, "How did you get in? Where are the people in the room?" "Your two wives are all missing, maybe they ran away in a sweep, we didn't see anyone when we entered the house!" Lin Miao said. "I seem to have seen you before!" Li Yitang said. "I came here in the morning. At that time, your two wives were arguing, and you were busy trying to persuade them!" "Well, by the way, you once sneaked into my studio..." Jin Yanni saw that Li Yitang was injured on the top of his head. The blood had already solidified, but after moving, the wound was opened and the blood started running down again. "You were injured, it's more important to heal the wound first!" she said. "Do you need to find a doctor?" Herik volunteered. "No!" Li Yitang quickly waved his hands and said, "Small injury, it's not a problem. I want to ask you guys, what are your plans for breaking into my studio?" Qiu Yisen has already inspected the situation in the secret room. It can also be called a storage room. Almost all of Li Yitang's counterfeit antiques are stored in it. It has a secret door designed for fear of being found out. Li Yitang was unexpectedly beaten The wound was also locked in this secret room, the air inside it was not circulated enough, if not discovered in time, Li Yitang would have suffocated to death, what a shame. "You are an expert in counterfeit antiques. Tang, Song and Ming dynasties antiques can be carved out by you!" Qiu Yisen took out a Song Dynasty Jade Buddha in his hand and asked Li Yitang. "Manufacturing antiques is not against the law. Those who wish to take the bait are equivalent to works of art. Naturally, arty people will buy them!" Li Yitang replied confidently. "But some people say that it is not unusual for you to imitate the pearl shirts and dragon ball hats that are on display at the expo!" Qiu Yisen said. "It's nothing! This is my studio. Can you see the pearl shirt and dragon ball hat? Whoever spread the rumors will kill you!" Li Yitang categorically denied it, and even swore against the sky.However, it can be seen from Li Yitang's appearance that something is wrong. He intends to deny it, and he seems a little flustered. "I've witnessed it with my own eyes. I can't deny it. You must have hidden it!" Lin Miao said seriously. "This is the only storage room I have. There are no pearl shirts or dragon ball hats in it!" Li Yitang shook his head and firmly denied, saying, "What are you guys doing? Blood spurting people, I want to call the police!" "We released you from the secret room and saved your life. We only hope that you can cooperate sincerely, and we will never make things difficult for you!" Qiu Yisen said. "We have nothing to work with..." "We can let you out, or we can lock you back in and let you suffocate to death!" Qiu Yisen threatened. "Do you want to murder...?" Li Yitang said nana. "The people who planned to kill you were the first, and we came later!" Qiu Yisen said, "We are not looking for you to forge the antiquities of the exposition, but we just want to know who commissioned you to forge it." "No such thing, I don't care about your intimidation!" Li Yitang still firmly denied it. "It's also very simple. I'll lock you back into the storage room. I believe you have already tasted the taste of suffocation!" Qiu Yisen said and immediately started, he grabbed Li Yitang's arms and thighs with both hands, like grabbing a chicken When he picked it up, he was about to throw Li Yitang into the secret room again. "I'll call for help..." Li Yitang struggled to say, his expression quite flustered. "That's what you've asked for. Someone can break your head, and I can break one of your arms, making you both crippled! In this way, you won't be able to carve any fakes in the future!" Qiu Yisen snapped his wrist , wringing Li Yitang's arm rattling. Li Yitang grinned his teeth and cried out in pain, but he still refused to tell the truth. Jin Yanni's heart was soft, and she was very puzzled. Maybe Li Yitang was wronged, so she pulled Lin Miao and said softly, "Did you really see the pearl shirt and dragon ball hat?" Lin Miao was furious and said, "I can swear to God..." Horik scratched his scalp, his eyes rolled around the room, and said, "Then why did it disappear?" "Maybe it was taken away by someone. Didn't you see that Li Yitang was beaten to death?" Lin Miao said smartly. "Since it was taken away by someone, why didn't Li Yitang admit it?" He Like asked the second question. "I don't know..." Qiu Yisen knew in his heart that what Lin Miao said was true, and it must be true that Li Yitang forged the pearl shirt and dragon ball hat, and this matter must have something to do with stealing treasures.That must be the method of "stealing the sky for the sun" by the treasure thief.The reason why Li Yitang would rather die to deny it is naturally because he knows that this is an illegal activity. When the treasure robbery incident happened, he might be implicated in the upper body. But there is one problem. Li Yitang was beaten and imprisoned in a secret room. It seems that there is an attempt to kill someone. Luo Tuo and Zuo Luntai never hurt anyone in any case. Could it be that this is the fourth party?Qiu Yisen's wisdom also became slightly confused, and the simple questions gradually became more complicated. He ruthlessly threw Li Yitang back into the secret room, and said, "You are impatient, so you can't blame others, right?" "Wait..." Li Yitang asked for forgiveness before Qiu Yisen closed the door.Qiu Yisen still closed the door of the secret room violently and unlatched it.He waited outside the door for Li Yitang's reaction. Li Yitang slammed on the door indoors and screamed strangely, but it was useless, only a slight sound could be heard outside. "Uncle Qiu, what should we do if we suffocate him to death?" Jin Yanni couldn't bear it and asked Qiu Yisen. "It doesn't matter, he won't die for the time being!" Qiu Yisen said. Lin Miao put her hands on her hips and said, "This Li Yitang is really old and cunning. It would be nice if he could be punished!" "What's the matter, since he made a fake pearl shirt, why was he not in the house, and was beaten and imprisoned in the secret room?" He Like said. "If my judgment is correct, it may have been taken away by someone!" Qiu Yisen said. "Who's going to take this?" "Of course someone who has a special conspiracy about the World Expo!" Qiu Yisen said. "I'm completely confused, I don't know what's going on!" Lin Miao said scratching her ears and cheeks. "You don't need to worry, Li Yitang will definitely confess, we will wait patiently for a few minutes!" After a while, there was a howling sound from the secret room. Li Yitang was greedy for life and afraid of death, but Qiu Yisen guessed it. He cried and begged for mercy, willing to confess truthfully. Qiu Yisen winked at everyone, but still waited with folded arms. "Let me out, I'll say anything!" Li Yitang slammed on the door and shouted, coughing endlessly. "Then let him out!" Jin Yanni eavesdropped and pleaded for Li Yitang. "This kind of person must make him suffer enough, otherwise it will cost us a lot!" Qiu Yisen said, unlatched the door for the second time, and opened the secret door.Li Yitang fell out, rolling all over the floor and coughing. "If you don't tell the truth again, I won't let you go!" Qiu Yisen said sternly. Li Yitang cried and mourned, only wishing to know the identities of Qiu Yisen and others first. Qiu Yisen said: "We are definitely not representing the police. We originally planned to entrust you to do one or two business transactions, but because you have no sincerity to cooperate, you have to use this method as a last resort!" "What business do you plan to entrust me with?" "Pearl shirt, dragon ball hat! The same two things!" Qiu Yisen said. Li Yitang was stunned, and once again stared at Qiu Yisen and the two men and a woman beside him in a daze, paying attention to their expressions, he was still puzzled.This proves that Li Yitang is cunning and cunning and has a shrewd and calm mind. "What do you want these two things for?" he asked. "Do you still need to investigate the reason for doing this kind of business?" Qiu Yisen spoke in a professional way. Li Yitang was forced to tell the truth.He said that the owner of "Sara Kee Antique Shop" introduced a distinguished customer who did not want to disclose his name, and entrusted him with a price of one thousand dollars to imitate pearl shirts and dragon ball hats. Pay 40%, and the money and goods will be settled on the delivery date, and the two are not related. The only condition is that it will not be disclosed to a third party.The other party's request is not high, as long as it is placed in the window, under the light, it will be completely similar in a blink of an eye! This is a good deal, for Li Yitang, it can be said to be easy and effortless.But things went wrong. Three days before the delivery date, after Lin Miao visited his residence, peeped at his studio and left, three burly men suddenly came, masked their faces with handkerchiefs, and broke into the house. In his studio, he was beaten and forced to open the storage room, and took away two counterfeit antiques. Li Yitang pointed at Lin Miao and said, "Before, I considered that you brought those three masked men, but now it seems that there are two ways..." "It's three masked thieves again!" Qiu Yisen was troubled, where did these three mysterious figures come from? "Why did it happen so coincidentally? It happened just after I left..." Lin Miao couldn't believe it, thinking that it was Li Yitang who was deliberately throwing blood at others. "I can say with certainty that, at the very least, these three people came here because you provoked them. They have nothing to do with each other, and they have no clues. Who would find me? And just went to the house?" Li Yitang had been in the "underworld" after all. Yes, suspicious clues have been found. "I want to ask, how did you find the door?" "The enemy of 'Saweiji Antique Store' pointed out, give me your address!" Lin Miao said. "Are you being followed?" "Shit, who is following me for what?" Qiu Yisen also became alert. According to Li Yitang's story, Lin Miao was being followed. The question is, who will follow Lin Miao?Who knew that Lin Miao was running errands for Qiu Yisen? "Could it be that all you know is that you were attacked by three masked men of unknown origin, took away the counterfeit pearl shirt, and then knocked you unconscious and locked you in the storage room?" Qiu Yisen asked. "I can swear to God, that's exactly what happened!" Li Yitang said firmly. "There was a robbery at home, are you going to call the police?" He Like asked. "Bah! Can I call the police for this kind of business? Isn't it asking for trouble?" Jin Yanni also expressed her opinion: "Maybe your two wives are the insiders for the thief. Otherwise, why did they both run away?" "Did they all run away?..." Li Yitang showed surprise. "How do you know they're all gone? . . . " "When we entered the house, there was no one there, so we went straight into your studio!" Jin Yanni said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have saved your life in time!" Li Yitang shook his hand and laughed and said: "Who wants the ugly woman who ran away? The two of them just had a quarrel, so they went back to their mother's house in a fit of anger! If they were internal thieves, they would have so many things to take, why would they need one?" What about the cheap counterfeit pearl shirts and dragon ball hats?" "Then according to your judgment, who did it?" Herik asked again. "Do you need to talk about it? It's the same route as the person who ordered these two antiques!" Li Yitang gradually regained his senses. He rubbed his throat with both hands and said, "Since we have all talked, we can make friends." , now I would like to invite everyone to drink a glass of wine, I wonder if you agree?" Lin Miao and others watched Qiu Yisen's reaction, and Qiu Yisen nodded secretly. Li Yitang pointed out that there are several bottles of fine wine in the drawer of his work desk, which are for drinking to refresh himself while working, because his mobility is inconvenient, so he asked He Like to do it for him. Li Yitang opened the wine bottle, drank two glasses first, and suddenly seemed to have changed his mood, even forgetting the injury on his head. "Let's not gossip, now you have lost the counterfeit product, and it's time for delivery, how do you deal with it?" Qiu Yisen asked. "It's just a matter of time. I can leave the processing overnight, and the delivery can be delayed by a day or two. It shouldn't be a problem!" Li Yitang answered, poured another glass of wine, and handed it to Qiu Yisen with both hands.Qiu Yisen waved his hand and declined. Li Yitang is really an old alcoholic, he can't stop talking after drinking, and he has two drinks in a row. "If I also need a set of pearl shirt and dragon ball hat, how long will it take to deliver?" Qiu Yisen asked. Li Yitang's eyes were burning, as if he had guessed Qiu Yisen's intentions, he showed a greedy look, deliberately hesitantly said: "It depends on the price you are willing to pay?". “你原先的那位主顾，和他相同的代价！但是得先交我的货，将他的延迟押后！”仇奕森说。 “不可以稍为增高吗？因为这是有违信用和道义的买卖！” “假如你能在最短的时间交货，我可以增加两百元！”仇奕森说。 李乙堂摇首说：“'又要马儿好，又要马儿不吃草。'那怎么行？这样怎会令客户满意呢？” “你好像有把握提前交货？” 李乙堂笑了，带着几分酒意说：“干我们这项买卖的，你该知道，总是有备份的！” 仇奕森一怔，听李乙堂的语气，他伪制的珍珠衫和龙珠帽，还不光只是制了一套，除了被三个蒙面贼夺走的之外，另外还有一套藏在室内。 仇奕森两眼灼灼，凭他的经验，又开始在室内打量。李乙堂是一个狡黠的人物，室内的秘密机关恐怕还不光只是那道暗门密室呢。 “别打歪王意，我们既然袒诚相见，就要规矩谈买卖，谁也别想占谁的便宜！”李乙堂机警地说。 “你想要多少钱？” “你瞧着办，可不要太小气就行了！” “给你一千五……” “我要现金！” “当然给你现金！” “现钱交现货！” 仇奕森摸摸身上，他所携的现款不多，便问林淼和何立克两人，大家合凑。林淼和何立克都是富家子弟，随时身上都会有着大把钞票的。 凑足一千五百美元现款，李乙堂数点过钞票之后，露出了笑脸，递手说：“那么，你们几位请到客室去稍坐，我去拿东西交货！” 仇奕森两眼一瞪，说：“李乙堂，我先给你警告，我们别来玩花样，后果会很严重！” 李乙堂拍拍胸脯说：“不会的，我李某人不是那种人，我今后还要吃这种饭呢！” 林淼和金燕妮都很不放心，迟疑着看仇奕森的反应。 仇奕森便说：“好的，我就相信你一次！” “我的行动不方便，可否将手杖还给我！”李乙堂指着被扔在地板上的手杖说。 何立克勉为其难地为他拾起手杖，掷在他的身畔。 “我们就守在门外，希望你能保守信用，否则后果是很难堪的！”仇奕森最后警告说。 “为什么不相信朋友呢？”李乙堂含笑。 仇奕森带着三个年轻人出了室外，就守在门前的黑布帘边。 金燕妮说：“这雕刻匠一脸老奸巨猾，真不可以相信！” 仇奕森迳自接过金燕妮手中的皮包，边打开边说：“我要借你的小镜子一用！” 仇奕森取出小镜子，一闪身又穿进密门里去。他将镜子伸进密室去，借以偷窥李乙堂的动静。 这时，李乙堂伏在地上，原来在他的工作桌的坐椅底下，有一块揭板，揭板底下是一道像棺材大小的槽穴，里面竟是“八宝箱”呢，满载膺品古玩。 李乙堂已经将一件缝制好的珍珠衫和一顶仿制的龙珠帽取出来了。他的行动不大方便，还要将揭板重新掩盖，坐椅归还原状…… 仇奕森失笑，很明显的，是当三名蒙面贼登门打劫时，李乙堂宁死不肯供出膺品珍珠衫和龙珠帽收藏的地方。他宁可打开壁上的秘密暗门，接受贼人的痛殴，然后被关进暗门之内。 这种人，要钱不要命！有了钱，什么事情都肯干的。 不一会儿，李乙堂扶着拐杖，一手提着珍珠衫，腋下挟着龙珠帽，一拐一拐地自他的工作室走出来了。 他说：“我李某人向来是言而有信的，只要条件谈妥，绝对遵守道义，现在可以交货了！” 仇奕森接过珍珠衫，惊叹不已，到底这是出自名家之手的膺品，真是可以以假乱真呢。 李乙堂最后很郑重地说：“你们要遵守道义，此事不足为外人道也！” “不过，以后若有好生意时，我们还是会关照你的！”林淼说。 仇奕森既取着膺品珍珠衫和龙珠帽，便用了一副包袱将它小心包起，然后向李乙堂告辞，离开了这位膺品专家的住宅。 金燕妮很觉纳闷，问仇奕森说：“你出高价购买这两件东西，有何作用呢？” 仇奕森说：“'先下手为强，后下手遭殃。'这是'作战'的道理，既然对方已经有了这种意图，我们何不先将它弄到手呢？” 金燕妮不懂。说：“怎样下手？” 仇奕森说：“我仍在考虑！” 他们四人重新坐进汽车时，仇奕森郑重地向林淼说：“我现在怀疑，你到李乙堂住宅来的时候，是否曾被人跟踪呢？” 林淼怔怔回答说：“我会被谁跟踪呢？” “这要你去回想，要不然，三个蒙面贼怎会赶巧在你离开李乙堂的住宅后便搜劫李乙堂的工作室呢？” “不可能有人跟踪我的！”林淼斩钉截铁地说。 “那么找寻膺品古玩专家的事情，你可曾向任何人泄漏过吗？”仇奕森又问。 “没有！”林淼非常肯定。 “可能是我们非常接近的人！” “除了我们几个人之外，金京华曾询问过这件事！” “金京华吗？”仇奕森两眼灼灼。 林淼说：“他想知道我为什么事情替你跑腿，跑得如此的起劲？” 金燕妮失笑说：“难道说，你们怀疑金京华会是蒙面贼吗？” “嗯，除了金京华以外，和我们最接近的，又能够刺探内幕的，还会有什么人？”仇奕森说。 “我相信没有！”何立克说：“你们不要怀疑到我的头上才好！” “你这个'秀才'！扮什么也不像，别说扮蒙面贼了！”金燕妮说。 四个人全笑了。
汽车已重返市区，来到“金氏企业大楼”大厦，大家还未下车时，仇奕森向他们关照说： “我们曾经到过李乙堂处，膺品珍珠衫和龙珠帽已经取到手，此事只有我们四个人知道，不论是谁，不得向第五者泄漏！” “仇奕森叔叔，你有什么作用呢？”金燕妮问。 “成败在此一举，我们一直是处在不利的地位上呢！”仇奕森答。 “你们究竟在搞什么名堂？我简直如丈二金刚摸不着头！”林淼说。 “等到水落石出之日，你自然会了解的！”仇奕森说。 林淼要求仇奕森带他去找朱黛诗，他说：“你委托我替你办的事情都已经搞妥，现在，你总不能再推托不带我去找那位朱小姐了！” 仇奕森说：“那位朱小姐不是一个简单的人物，必然行踪飘忽，我们假如堂皇登门拜访，定会吃闭门羹，因此，一定要出其不意的将她寻着！” “怎样算是出其不意呢？” “等于突击行动一样！” 林淼不乐说：“哼，你是打算黄牛了不成？” “年轻人不要急躁，'打草惊蛇'就会被跑掉了。倘若鸿飞冥冥，你就再也难找着了。只要有缘，我会为你做这个牵线人的！”
仇奕森让金京华通知“罗氏父子电子机械工程公司”，因为博览会展览室的电子防盗设计蓝图失窃，所以该会场的电子防盗设备需要变更设计，将它改装一番。 改装工作当然不简单，等于一个严重的病患要动大手术似的。博览会是属于国际性的公共场所，每日游人何止十数万人？因之，改装工作得在博览会打烊过后，在夜间进行。 “燕京保险公司”是负责两件中国宝物展出的安全的，同时，天坛展览室内的电子防盗设备，也是由“燕京保险公司”委托“罗氏父子电子工程公司”设计装设，所以，由“燕京保险公司”出面，具呈文向展览大会当局申请变更改装，金京华和罗朋奔走了一番，很快的就获得当局批准。 是夜，博览会打烊后，整个展览会场进行清场，守卫人员如临大敌似地，在各要道处作安全布置。 “罗氏父子电子机械工程公司”驶来了好几部工程车，工人到了不少，携来许多稀奇古怪的工具及各种零件。大小箱子及电器检查设备在天坛展览室的门前堆叠，工人熙熙攘攘的，工程车也不断地进出，显得十分忙碌。 罗国基因为受伤躺在医院里，所以这项改装工程就由他的儿子罗朋主持。 罗朋原是个花花公子，不学无术，长时间的花天酒地，早将所学的电子工程学抛到九霄云外了，让他主持变更设计，改装电子防盗工程，岂不就要手忙脚乱吗？好在“老狐狸”仇奕森像是一位“万能博士”、“万事通”，他没有事情不懂，“喧宾夺主”，竟由他指挥变更工作了。 当夜要开夜工，仇奕森早宣布过要赶通宵，准备工作做得非常完善。天坛展览室内外，均备有丰盛的酒食。简直像宴会似的，陈年的美酒，山珍海味，分为两席，一席设在天坛户外露天处，色香味俱佳；另一席摆在室内，是供在内部的工作人员果腹，提高工作情绪。 展览台上的玻璃橱罩经拆下后，那价值连城的珍珠衫和龙珠帽便移置在警卫室内，由金燕妮和何立克负责看管。 金燕妮天真活泼的竟披起了珍珠衫，戴上龙珠帽，独个儿玩“扮皇帝”，警卫室内装设有各种不同角度的电眼，由电视的萤幕上，可以看到天坛内外的活动情形，大家都忙碌得不可开交，只有罗朋和金京华两人相对饮酒，看他俩一杯来一杯往，总会喝得酩酊大醉为止。 金燕妮又将珍珠衫披在何立克的身上，将龙珠帽给他戴上。 “瞧你那副德性，穿上了龙袍也不像皇帝！”金燕妮笑得前仰后合的。 这时，户外起了一阵争吵之声，原来是金京华雇用的私家侦探华莱士范伦听说“罗氏父子电子机械工程公司”要变更设计，改装电子防盗设备，正在赶夜工，所以漏夜赶来了，但是把守外围的警卫禁止他踏进天坛，所以发生争吵。 这是仇奕森向警卫关照的，除了工作人员及“燕京保险公司”所指定的几个人之外，任何人禁止进内！ 华莱士范伦咆哮说：“我是受聘的私家侦探，是负责展览所安全的，为什么不许我入内？” 警卫说：“上面交代下来是如此，我们只是尽职责行事！” 华莱士范伦带着他的两名助手史葛脱和威廉士同来，三个人三张嘴，拉大了嗓子乱吼，几乎动武。 金京华不明白仇奕森为什么连华莱士也不信任，向仇奕森请示说：“华莱士受聘负责天坛展览所的安全，这展览所的电子防盗设备，是由他监工，眼看着它装置起来的，这时候的改装工作，不可以让他进来参观吗？” 仇奕森说：“华莱士对电子设备懂得多少？” “他根本不会懂的！” “那么看也是白看了？！” “所以说，这只是面子上的问题，防盗设备改装，负责安全的私家侦探被禁止进内，传闻出去，对华莱士来说，是非常难堪的！” 仇奕森趁此机会向金京华盘问说：“我叫林淼查访墨城的膺品古玩制造专家，你可曾有向任何人泄漏过？” “没有……”金京华呐呐回答。 “华莱士可知道这件事情？” “华莱士曾经向我问过，但是我们全不懂你的用意何在。”金京华终于承认曾经向华莱士吐露过。 仇奕森推窗外望，这时，华莱士仍在向警卫交涉，他要请金京华出来论理。仇奕森注意的是华莱士的两名助手，威廉士和史葛脱都是彪形大汉，他俩和华莱士合在一起正好三个人，三个蒙面贼循着他们的路线二度出现伤人，那么华莱士就不无可疑之处。 “华莱士可有派人跟踪林淼？”仇奕森再问。 “这我就不知道了……”金京华惶然答。 “除了华莱士之外，还有谁会知道我让林淼寻访膺品古玩制造专家呢？” “仇叔叔，难道说，你怀疑三个蒙面贼就是华莱士和他的助手？” “我们一直处在困境，不能不加以提防！” “不可能的，华莱士和我的交情甚厚，我们吃喝玩乐，称兄道弟，已经有多少年，可以说是肝胆相照的朋友，他怎会做出这类的事情？” “酒肉朋友经常会吃内扒外的！”仇奕森说。 “华莱士乔扮蒙面贼，偷袭罗氏电子公司，劫夺李乙堂的工作室？会有什么企图呢？噢！这是不可能的事情，仇叔叔，你太富于幻想了！”金京华直在替他的朋友辩论。 仇奕森说：“我并没有肯定我的见解，但是华莱士的行径不无使人生疑之处！” 不多久，警卫向金京华报告，华莱士坚持要他出外会面。 仇奕森便说：“既然如此，你就让他们进来参观就是了！” 华莱士的脸色铁青，向金京华埋怨不迭，说：“既然你完全相信仇奕森，那么又何需要雇用我这个私家侦探呢？假如在事后出了乱子，一切责任与我无干！” 金京华没敢辩驳，在朋友的道义上，他也很觉过意不去，实在说，仇奕森的用心何在？他也搞不大清楚呢！ 华莱士和他的两名助手走进了天坛展览室，眼看着那座展览室拆得七零八落，地底下装设的器材像乱棉絮似的，谁能找出它的头绪？拆卸开的零件整齐排列在展览台的两侧，好像是在展览那些零件一样。 仇奕森很注意华莱士的神色，自从三个蒙面贼出现之后，他几乎对每一个人都不大信任。 何立克扮“皇帝”穿着那件珍珠衫，头戴龙珠帽，也是闲着无聊，和金燕妮两人在警卫室内嬉耍，他俩嘻嘻哈哈的，似是两小无猜，也像是在打情骂俏。 警卫室和天坛展览室隔着有一道玻璃门，室外各处都布有电眼，由各种角度可以监视室外的动静，电视机一打开，萤幕上会映射出来。 华莱士的两名助手史葛脱和威廉士在玻璃门前鬼头鬼脑张望。金燕妮已经在萤幕上发现，立刻提出警告说：“任何人不得入警卫室，否则警铃会全面大响！” 史葛脱和威廉士非常不乐，但他俩没敢胡乱闯进去。 “为什么要改装防盗设备？”华莱士向罗朋盘问，因为这项设计，还是由他们的公司负责。 “我不知道，据金京华说，是因为我们的电子防盗设备的蓝图失窃的原因！”罗朋答。 “怎样改装呢？” “我也搞不清楚，你看，不是仇奕森一个人在主持吗，他指手划脚的，代替我负了全责！” “仇奕森会懂得电子设备的改装吗？”华莱士再问。 "I have no idea……" “呸！你为什么全不知道呢？到底电子防盗设备是由你们公司负责？还是由仇奕森负责？” “最大原因，是我们的蓝图失窃了，假如出了差错，我们公司就名誉扫地了！”罗朋沮丧说。 “仇奕森只是一名老江湖，值得你们如此相信吗？”华莱士说。 “金京华兄妹对他信任，他是我们的雇主，我无可奈何呢！” “窝囊废！” “反正出了问题，由他们自己负责！”
仇奕森的工作颇为认真，几乎每一件零件，他都仔细加以检查。其实仇奕森并非真懂，他是故作姿态，装模作样罢了。 华莱士终于忍不住，走到仇奕森的身畔探问：“你对电子机械工程，究竟懂得多少？” 仇奕森呵呵笑了，说：“在外面跑跑，四处混混，肚子里就需要有一本'百科全书'，任何事情不能全盘精通，也得加以了解，机械是刻板的学问，只要电路接通，没有故障，不会错到那里去！” “你如何改装呢？” 仇奕森说：“你不是外人，告诉你也无妨，一切还原，只是多添一些小玩艺进去！” “什么样的小玩艺？” 仇奕森故作神秘，向他附耳说：“触电！谁想觊觎这展览台上的两件宝物，误踏机关就会触电！” 华莱士暗暗咋舌，说：“真的吗？假如是购票参观的观众误踩机关，岂不要出人命了？” 仇奕森摇头道：“观众不可能会踩上展览台上去的，除非是不肖份子！” 这时，又有警卫进内报告，说是林淼先生要求拜会仇奕森先生。 华莱士听见林淼的名字就有点不自然，他又急切说：“林淼是一位新闻人物，他来干什么？” 仇奕森回答说：“林淼曾经到李乙堂处去过，他被人暗地跟踪，所以到这里来是辨认跟踪者的！” “李乙堂是谁？”华莱士怔怔地问。 “你不知道李乙堂其人吗？” 华莱士摇头。“李乙堂是干什么的？和我们有什么关连？” 仇奕森顿感诧异，假如说，华莱士范伦连林乙堂也不知道，那么他就和三个蒙面贼是不相干的了，这样岂非又走错了路线了吗？ 他两眼灼灼，猜不透华莱士的心思，凡是有“犯罪心理”的人，都容易露出破绽的，也是善于狡诈的，华莱士值得可疑吗？ 仇奕森吩咐金京华监工，然后走出展览室和林淼会面。
林淼这次是奉父亲之命，到博览会里来察看仇奕森等人兴建改造工程的。 林淼之抵达墨城，原是奉林边水之命监视骆驼和常老么之动静，并负责经济上的支援。至于林边水和骆驼之间的默契，进行盗宝的阴谋，林淼完全被蒙在鼓里，他的父亲没让他知道，阴错阳差，林淼竟和仇奕森、金京华他们厮混到一起去了，这事大出骆驼的意料之外。 林淼为追求朱黛诗，闹了天大的笑话，被人捉进警察局里去；林边水有庞大的家产，光只这么一个宝贝儿子，盗宝事件自然不希望林淼牵涉在内。骆驼认为他是个累赘，建议林边水把林淼带回家去，但是林淼哪里会肯呢？他非要寻着朱黛诗才甘休。 林边水非常气愤，林淼竟和仇奕森、金京华他们厮混到一起去了，岂不是“吃内扒外”吗？而且林淼帮同仇奕森跑腿，他的作为，对骆驼是绝对不利的。林边水有口难言，有苦说不出。 林淼是自幼被纵惯坏了，他怎的也不肯离开墨城回家去，林边水又能奈何他？ 常老么是根据林边水的指示介绍寻着李乙堂的，这位著名的膺品古玩制造专家，经常和林边水有接触，一般的古玩商还被蒙在鼓里！ 吃这一行饭的人，坏主意特别的多，比方说，某某古玩商向林边水推荐某一件古玩，林边水有意收购，李乙堂伪造的膺品捷足先登，“价廉物美”，横腰里抢夺过一票好买卖。反正林边水并不是什么真的古玩监赏家，他之所以收藏古玩，无非是标榜自己的家当和身价罢了。收藏一件膺品，和收藏一件“货真价实”的宝贝，对林边水没有两样。 古玩商与古玩商明争暗斗，要找着一位“冤大头”的主顾颇不容易，李乙堂自缝隙之中坐享“渔人之利”，关系颇为微妙。 骆驼盗宝需要有膺制的珍珠衫和龙珠帽，他的计划是以“偷天换日”的手法将宝物盗走，展览台上换上膺品，这是一种障眼法以拖延一段时日，好便于将宝物偷运出墨城去。 常老么得到林边水的指点寻着李乙堂，以千元的高价订制两件膺品，想不到林淼竟摸索着相同的路线，帮同仇奕森将两件“成品”先行取走。常老么到了
