Chapter 647 Miss Xixi, can we talk?
After the others walked away, the leader also left after a while.
Gu Lingzheng closed the door, then looked at sister Xiao Xi, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Xiao Xi, didn't you give that lamp to Jiang Yu?"
Fan Jincheng also looked at Xixi.
"It's fake, right?"
Fan Xixi nodded, "Yes. I made a fake one just in case."
She did not explain that the lamp was a counterfeit that had just been made.
Gu Lingzheng breathed a sigh of relief, "It looks very real. I guess they won't recognize it."
Fan Xixi was silent for a while and then said: "I am worried that the death of old man Tang De is also related to the eternal lamp."
"Anyway, I gave them the lantern, let's see when the time comes!" Fan Jincheng's heart was in his throat just now, fearing that Xixi would be in trouble if he couldn't get the lantern.
If there really was no light for Officer Modly, then the next thing they would have to check is the whereabouts of the light and the suspicious person who appeared in the town.
When the time comes, the first person to be exposed may be Jiang Yu.
The next person to be affected was Xixi.
"It seems that we really need to seize the time to earn points and go back earlier." Gu Lingzheng said seriously.
If the death of old man Tang De was not an accident, then this seemingly safe town is actually not safe at all.
Fan Jincheng thought so too, so after staying at home for another half an hour, he and Gu Lingzheng were ready to go out to work.
When leaving, Fan Jincheng worriedly told Xixi: "Xixi, please don't go out and have a good rest at home."
Fan Xixi nodded in order to reassure brother Jincheng.
However, after they left, she also went out.
Because the weather was bad, she chose to work in the laundry room.
On the other side, someone quickly alerted Officer Modly to Fan Xixi's whereabouts.
"Sir, there is nothing suspicious about Fan Xixi. She went to work in the laundry room. I have asked people to know that she is very serious about every job in the town and has not come into contact with any suspicious people. She even rescued
Many people in the town..."
After listening to his subordinate's detailed report, Officer Modly nodded, "There is indeed nothing suspicious about her. It is someone else's fault. Burnett can also confirm that Fan Xixi has not had any private contact with Mr. Tang De. The case will be investigated separately."
Breaking point.”
"Yes, sir. Does the lamp still need to be sent for appraisal?"
Officer Modly frowned and thought for a while before saying: "The higher-ups have designated that this lamp be sent for inspection, so just send it there!"
"yes."
Ten minutes later, a police car left the town carrying the light.
Half an hour later, the police car met another police car halfway with the box containing the eternal lamp, and the handover was carried out.
At 7:30 in the evening, the eternal lamp was delivered to a mansion.
Inside, an old man whose hands were burnt black by fire took an eternal lamp and examined it carefully.
After a long time, a man in a suit asked, "Mr. Mo, is this the real eternal life lamp?"
"It's hard to say. Judging from the historical feel of the lamp, it is indeed quite old, and the shape of the lamp looks real. There is an 80% chance that it is real."
"There's an 80% chance that it's true, so this thing can't be returned... Let someone make a replica of an eternal lamp and return it."
"yes."
…
The next day.
After Fan Xixi delivered the morning paper, she specially set aside time to see Nazi off.
Nako couldn't bear to leave her, so she left a big package to her.
"Xixi, inside is a gift from me. We will contact you by phone later."
Fan Xixi smiled and nodded, "Okay, be careful on the road!"
With that said, she also greeted Professor Asano and the others.
It wasn't until Nako and the others got in the car and left that she returned to her residence.
The package Nako gave her contained a lot of food. In addition to the food, there were also two beautiful dresses bought at a small town photography studio.
In addition, there is a beautiful crystal music box inside, with a dancing couple inside. There is also a small card inside the box with Nako's address and contact information.
Fan Xixi was very moved, so she immediately put the things into her space treasure box.
Although life in the small town was quite comfortable, she still wanted to leave as soon as possible.
So, after having lunch early, she went to work again.
On the other side, Fan Jincheng and Gu Lingzheng did not come back for lunch. After eating something casually, they went to do other work.
In the evening, Fan Xixi, who had just finished delivering the evening newspaper, met Officer Modly again.
"Miss Xixi, can we talk?"
Fan Xixi nodded and followed Officer Modly to the side of the road.
Officer Modly first handed her a box containing an eternal lamp, and then said: "This is the lamp. After testing, no problems were found, so I will return it to you first."
Fan Xixi nodded, opened it and took a look.
Even though it was just a glance, she could see the problem.
This lamp was not the fake one she made herself.
So, Officer Modly took away her "eternal lamp" and then gave her a fake one?
Sure enough, what they want is the eternal lamp.
Although she had discovered the problem, her expression remained calm, as if she had not discovered anything, and she put the lamp away directly.
"Thank you! How is the investigation into old man Tang De's death going?"
Officer Modly sighed, "Nothing else was found. It still takes time to investigate the clues. What I want to ask you is, do you know what kind of lamp this is? I heard privately that many people seem to want this lamp."
lamp."
Fan Xixi shook her head, "I'm not too sure. Speaking of which, my master has never mentioned any ancient lamps to me. I think the value of ancient lamps may be due to their long history, right? When I got the lamp, I looked at it for a long time.
, and didn’t find anything special about it. Officer Modly, you also looked at this light, right? Is there nothing special about it?”
Officer Modly nodded, "I did not see anything special, so the lamp was sent elsewhere for identification. However, they did not detect anything special. However, there is also news that Tang De
The old man was killed because someone was coveting his antique collection. As for what it was, I’m not sure. However, I think you also need to be careful."
Fan Xixi saw that Officer Modly really wanted to remind her to pay attention to her safety, and her tone became more sincere.
"I will be careful. In fact, I am also afraid that someone will cause trouble for me because of this strange lamp. If this lamp is really valuable, what do you think, I auction it? After all, my master has passed away, and this lamp
It is of no use to my master or me."
Officer Modly was a little surprised when he heard her words, but he soon felt relieved.
"If you really plan to auction it, I can help you."
When Fan Xixi heard this, she immediately handed him the "Eternal Life Lamp" she had just received.
"Sorry to trouble you! The money obtained from the auction will be used to deal with old man Tang De's funeral! I hope the real culprit will be brought to justice soon."
