1466: The Perverted Du Who Doesn't Let Go of the Vase (2 More)
"Mouse Qiang, whose full name is Zhang Jiaqiang, came to the United States in 1960...he has no family or relatives in the United States."
So no one called the police when they died.
Someone deliberately covered up that a human life can disappear so completely. A person died in 1967. It was not until Xia Xiaolan came to the United States in 1986 to find Xu Zhongyi that this person's death was dug up.
She also doesn’t sympathize with Rat Qiang. This person did not have a proper job after he arrived in the United States. He was a member of a local gang in San Francisco and often committed extortion. Even after 19 years, some local Chinese in San Francisco still remember how annoying Rat Qiang was. .
The San Francisco police found evidence of the deceased, and there was a new inference: Rat Qiang wanted to burglary or robbery when he saw money, and was discovered by Xu Zhongyi. Xu Zhongyi missed and seriously injured him in the fight with Rat Qiang. Xu Zhongyi misunderstood Rat Qiang's death. At that time, Xu Zhongyi himself During his illegal stay in the United States, he did not dare to let the police intervene. He simply set fire to cover up the crime, and then fled overnight with his wife and children, and has since disappeared in San Francisco.
It sounds like the logic seems to be a lot smoother.
Xia Xiaolan still felt strange.
"Should we check Zhang Jiaqiang's accomplices back then?"
She proposed to the San Francisco police, who said they had already checked.
There is a large population of Chinese in San Francisco. In the United States, they are afraid of being bullied, so they form fellow gangs according to the characteristics of the region. One person commits a crime and everyone covers it up. Those who sell out the gang don’t want to have a good life. It is impossible to investigate the old case after 19 years. Who knows why Zhang Jiaqiang went to the house that Xu Zhongyi rented. Theft and robbery are the most logical guesses.
As for Zhang Jiaqiang's accomplices?
It's not appropriate to be called "accomplices". It can only be said that Zhang Jiaqiang did have a good relationship with some people 20 years ago, but those people either killed themselves early and became felons in custody, or they have already changed their minds. became a legal taxpayer of the United States.
Without proof, what can be done to such a decent American citizen? San Francisco police can only conduct routine questioning, and even detention is impossible.
Grandma Yu couldn't accept it, and Xia Xiaolan also felt perfunctory.
But Wen Manni also said that it can only be done so far.
"Unless Mr. Xu himself can be found, only he, the client, will know what happened that year. If Mr. Xu really did something wrong, I would like to be his defense lawyer, defending him for misdemeanor or even innocence!"
Zhang Jiaqiang was a member of a gang, and the San Francisco police inferred that the robbery failed and was killed by mistake. Wen Manni felt that the situation was very beneficial to Xu Zhongyi.
But now, to find Xu Zhongyi!
Is it because of fear of being caught, hiding with his wife and children for 20 years, and living in hiding somewhere in the United States with a different surname, or is there another accident after the murder?
I have not been in contact with China for 19 years, and I can't say anything.
Wen Manni couldn't figure it out. Grandma Yu didn't believe the inference of the San Francisco police:
"How could Zhong Yi do such a thing! He will hide for 20 years if he accidentally kills someone? As long as the American property he brought with him is not lost, he can still change his name and obtain his identity."
Twenty years ago, the way to obtain American status was not as strict as it is today. Grandma Yu believed in her son's kindness and intelligence.
Xu Zhongyi was 28 years old when he went abroad. He is a husband and a father, not a teenage boy!
Xia Xiaolan felt that Grandma Yu was right.
As long as the property is not lost, there will always be money nearby... What if it is lost?
"We listened to Connie and let the San Francisco police continue to look for it. The reports from newspapers and TV stations are also effective. Otherwise, why would someone come to the door to provide clues to explain the identity of Mouse Qiang? Now we have to keep calm, no news is good news, and it is not Xu who died. Uncle, things will be better!"
Even if the San Francisco police's speculation is true, Xu Zhongyi's crime can be defended lightly. The San Francisco police can really find it and save Xia Xiaolan's effort.
In addition to the police, Xia Xiaolan also pinned her hopes on TV stations and newspapers.
And going to LA to find Jim in Benfield.
Just two days after the identity of the deceased was confirmed, Du Zhaohui finally heard back from Hong Kong:
"I haven't met a buyer from Hong Kong. This buyer is not willing to reveal his identity, but through the middleman, the buyer is willing to show me the vase for half an hour. Is this okay?"
Du Zhaohui felt very embarrassed.
It was the first time Xia Xiaolan asked him to help, but he didn't do it well!
Can't find a buyer?
It doesn't seem to be too important now, Xia Xiaolan didn't expect Jim to find out that the seller is Benfield first.
It's nice to see the bottle in person though.
"Wait a minute!"
Xia Xiaolan asked Grandma Yu, and Grandma Yu told her the mark:
"When you touch the inside of the bottle mouth, two inches down, there are three uneven spots that you can't see with your eyes, so you have to reach in and touch it with your hands."
Xia Xiaolan told Du Zhaohui:
"I have to trouble you again, I wonder if the buyer will agree to this request?"
"No problem, it's a trivial matter. Did you touch it? It's the vase you're looking for? You wait for my good news, and I'll call you back in a few minutes!"
Du Zhaohui's cowhide blew loudly.
My face turned green when I hung up the phone.
It was not easy for him to pretend that he liked vases very much. Finally, the entangled Master Qiu nodded to help and asked the mysterious buyer for a vase to show him appreciation.
Master Qiu didn't show up from the beginning to the end. It was the one named Chai Hai who met Du Zhaohui.
touch.
Now let him go to Chai Hai and say, just looking at it is not enough, he has to touch the vase again?
He Du someone's hands can touch the smooth skin of a woman, touch a cigar, touch a check or even touch the barrel of a gun, touch an antique vase... This is so perverted!
Du Zhaohui walked out of the room, biting his head and asking Chai Hai to play with it.
Chai Hai looked at him as if he was looking at a pervert.
Is it a cultural person who can play with vases, can Chai Hai not know the details of Du Zhaohui?
Not to mention Du Zhaohui, even Du Er Shao, who returned to Hong Kong after studying business in the UK and participated in two private shoots organized by Master Qiu, doesn't know how to appreciate antiques at all - the Du family can't even act arty!
"Young Master Du, you can play with it, but porcelain is quite delicate after the vicissitudes of life. Please handle it with care. If it breaks, Master Qiu is not easy to explain to the buyer. Loan the vase."
After Chai Hai explained it carefully, he removed the protection of the wooden box and carefully placed the vase on the table.
The photo was in black and white. Du Zhaohui thought it was a precious thing. At first glance, it looked like a blue and white vase. It was so small that the mouth of the bottle could only allow him to put two fingers into it.
Wearing extremely thin gloves, Du Zhaohui stretched out his fingers and touched the vase rudely. Chai Hai was afraid that he would drop the bottle, so he didn't blink at him, but Du Zhaohui's behavior was so vulgar that he could even touch the vase with an excited expression. , really hot eyes - how does Chai Hai know that Du Zhaohui has touched the small bump, it is really not obvious, and he will ignore it if he is not careful!
So this is the bottle that Xia Xiaolan was looking for. Du Zhaohui was happier than signing an order of tens of millions!
