Chapter 413 Xiao Qin's new mission
Chapter 413 Xiao Qin's new mission
Fragrant City, Smith's office.
Xiao Qin hurried in from the outside.
She had just received a call from Smith, telling her to immediately put down all her work and come to the director's office immediately.
"Director, what happened?" Xiao Qin asked impatiently as soon as he entered the door.
"We received news that the small bronze tripod that was stolen from our museum a while ago has gone missing," Smith said.
"What? Where is it? Has it been fished out of the sea?" Xiao Qin asked immediately.
"I don't know if it was fished out or not, but it's in the Forty-Nine Museum," Smith said.
Xiao Qin froze for a moment, then asked after a while: "In the Forty-Nine City Museum? Did they send someone to salvage it from the sea?"
"Xiao Qin, are you sure the bronze tripod fell into the sea?" Smith asked, looking into Xiao Qin's eyes.
"Yes, what could be wrong? I saw it with my own eyes!" Xiao Qin said.
"Tell me the details at that time, don't miss a single word!" Smith said.
Xiao Qin felt that the situation was getting serious.
For Smith seldom took her so seriously.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Qin explained the situation at that time in detail.
At that time, not only she was present alone, but also Zhang Peng and others, and many tourists on the ship were watching.
At that time, everyone saw that Zhao Aimin and the fake jack of spades fell into the sea, and a box was thrown into the sea when the two were fighting.
And judging from the statement of the fake Jack of Spades, the small bronze tripod was packed in a box.
When he was fighting with Zhao Aimin, he accidentally broke the box, and the small bronze tripod fell into the sea.
At that time, the fake jack of spades wanted to fish up the small bronze tripod because of its good water quality, but was chased by Zhao Aimin halfway and caught by Zhao Aimin.
"Boss, do I think the fake jack of spades is lying? Or he himself was cheated? I think the bronze tripod in that box is a fake, and the real bronze tripod was hidden by the jack of spades It was taken elsewhere, and for some unknown reason, it was taken by the Forty-Nine City Museum.”
Xiao Qin put forward a hypothesis.
Because the place where the small bronze tripod was lost was very deep, and there was an undercurrent under the water.
So items that fall into the sea there will be carried to other places by the undercurrent.
In addition, there is a lot of sediment on the bottom of the sea, once a relatively heavy item like a small bronze tripod falls, it will be covered by the sediment soon.
So it is impossible to salvage items there.
In fact, after the small bronze tripod was lost, Xiangcheng organized a salvage team to salvage the accident site.
As a result, when I dived underwater, I found that the undercurrent is very strong and the sediment on the bottom of the sea is very soft. It is impossible to find items that have been dropped in such a place.
So everyone thinks that the small bronze tripod has been completely lost.
But unexpectedly, news came from Sijiu City that the small bronze tripod was in the museum of Sijiu City.
"Xiao Qin, what you said is also reasonable. Another possibility is that the small bronze tripod in the Forty-Nine City Museum is a fake, and the real small bronze tripod has indeed fallen into the sea." Smith said.
"Is... a little unlikely?" Xiao Qin asked: "I heard that the Forty-Nine City Museum is very professional in identifying cultural relics, and they are unlikely to treat fakes as genuine ones, unless they do it on purpose!"
"What you just said is also possible." Smith nodded: "I thought the incident with the bronze tripod was over, but I didn't expect things to become more and more complicated. Now we know at least three possibilities, But which specific situation requires us to investigate."
"Director, you came here, do you want me to investigate?" Xiao Qin asked.
"That's what I mean." Smith nodded: "You have a good relationship with Zhao Aimin, and you have distant relatives in the Mainland, so it is very convenient for you to go to the Mainland to conduct investigations. So I decided to send you to the Mainland to investigate. We must find out whether the small bronze tripod in the Sijiu City Museum is real or not, if it is fake, what is their purpose for doing this, if it is real, who did they get it from!"
Xiao Qin thought for a while, and then asked: "Director, I am willing to accept this mission, but I don't quite understand why we are asked to do this kind of thing?"
"This is the decision of the superiors, and there is nothing I can do about it." Smith said helplessly: "We are in charge of law and order, why do we manage so much? But the superiors pressured me to do it, and I had to do it."
"I understand, I promise to complete the task!" Xiao Qin said.
Smith nodded: "This operation is confidential, so you can't go in a public capacity, you have to go in a personal capacity. So we will deliberately fire you, and then you will go to April [-]th as a businessman City, your ostensible purpose is to ask Zhao Aimin to help you do business, but in fact you want to take this opportunity to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the small bronze tripod!"
"I understand." Xiao Qin nodded.
"The matter of your dismissal is top secret. No one knows about it except me and my superiors, so your play must be realistic and you must not tell anyone!" Smith emphasized.
"Yes!" Xiao Qin replied.
"All the details are on this material. You take it back and memorize it and then burn it. When you are ready, you will tell me, and then you will take action!" Smith said, taking out a material from the drawer and putting it away. on the table.
"Don't worry, I will definitely complete the task!" Xiao Qin said confidently after taking the materials.
She then saluted and left Smith's office.
Looking at Xiao Qin's back, Smith breathed a sigh of relief.
They shouldn't have been allowed to go to Sijiu City to investigate the small bronze tripod like this.
But there was no way, the upper layer was pressed down layer by layer, and he couldn't push it off even if he wanted to.
Fortunately, there is someone like Xiao Qin who is skilled but unreliable in the bureau, and sending her out will not have any impact on the work of the bureau.
Whether Xiao Qin can complete the task is actually not important, the key is that he can finally explain to the superior.
The next day, Xiao Qin walked around in the downtown area in casual clothes.
This is her job, and she usually walks around the jurisdiction frequently in this way, which can prevent crime.
It's just that today she has another task, which is to make something happen.
Only in this way can Smith have a reason to fire her.
After walking around the street for a long time, Xiao Qin didn't find a chance to make a mistake.
I don't know why today, the street where the jurisdiction is located is very calm.
Although the streets were lively with people coming and going, nothing special happened.
On weekdays, there would always be a thief or something, but none of those thieves showed up today.
