Eguchi and Hong rubbed his eyes. wok
Eyes are a little dry.
So many days of hard work are really exhausting both physically and mentally.
Especially doing the same job every day.
A new day has begun.
Meng Shaoyuan also came early in the morning.
What we want to inspect today is Pier 2 and Warehouse No. 6!
"Let's begin."
Meng Shaoyuan took out the account book from his briefcase.
The first box, according to the records in the ledger, should be a box of cultural relics.
When he opened it and took out the first work, Meng Shaoyuan was stunned.
This is a word!
All are Chinese characters.
Meng Shaoyuan's appreciation of calligraphy and painting is almost non-existent.
He couldn't tell whose handwriting it was. wok
He also doesn’t know that this is China’s treasure:
Preface to Wu Lan Pavilion!
He only knew that this Chinese character must belong to China.
The Japanese must have plundered it from China.
It must be a priceless treasure!
A box full of calligraphy and paintings.
Most of them belong to China, and a small part comes from other countries in Southeast Asia. wok
Meng Shaoyuan felt heartbroken.
If I had known that such a peerless treasure was hidden here, I would not have chosen Warehouse No. 6 as my target.
I will definitely try my best to bring these calligraphy and paintings back to the embrace of my motherland.
At this time, Meng Shaoyuan wanted to slap himself a few times.
Since the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, countless Chinese cultural objects have flown overseas.
In order to bring these treasures home as soon as possible, countless people have been working hard for countless years.
But I actually chose Warehouse No. 6 as the target execution point by some strange coincidence? wok
What is this if not a fucking idiot?
Jiangguchi and Hong also couldn't understand the calligraphy and paintings, so the inspection was a bit perfunctory.
This made Meng Shaoyuan a little lucky.
Eguchi Kazuhiro's lack of knowledge in this area gives him a great possibility of success in his future plans!
After the inspection is completed, the box is resealed.
They came to the second box.
"Ironware, two hundred kilograms." Wok
Ironware is the code for gold!
When the box was opened, Eguchi and Hong opened the oilcloth on it and were startled: "Taniguchi-kun, did you see it wrong?"
"It's two hundred kilograms of iron." Meng Shaoyuan put the account book in front of Jiangkou and Hong.
Then, his eyes fell on the box: "What is this? How could this happen?"
There is no gold in the box at all.
Yes, it’s just a box of hardware materials!
"Did you remember it wrong in the account book?" Jiangguchi Hehong asked doubtfully. wok
"Impossible." Meng Shaoyuan said flatly: "When we inspected the previous warehouse, although there were occasional errors in the accounts, it was not so outrageous!"
Jiangguchi and Hong picked up a piece of hardware and looked at it over and over for a while.
Is this made of gold?
impossible!
He threw the materials away: "What's the next box?"
It's a cultural relic!
When I opened the box and checked, I found that these cultural relics looted from Southeast Asian countries were completely accurate! wok
Eguchi and Hong frowned: "Taniguchi-kun, see which boxes contain gold. Check these boxes first."
The chest marked with gold was opened.
However, this moment confirmed Jiangguchi and Hong's suspicions.
Inside, it’s still not gold!
It's filled with all kinds of books!
"How could this happen? How could this happen?"
An ominous premonition began to emerge in Jiangguchi and Hong's hearts. wok
One box after another was opened!
"problem occurs!"
Meng Shaoyuan murmured.
All the boxes that should contain gold were recorded in the ledger, but when they were opened, all the gold was gone!
"Something happened!" Jiangguchi and Hong said parrot-like.
What about gold?
Where did all that gold go? wok
Why are they all missing?
From the beginning of the verification to now, there has never been such a terrifying scene!
"This is not something we can solve anymore."
Meng Shaoyuan adjusted his emotions: "Immediately report to the Commander and Director Yamada."
Jiangguchi and Hong nodded mechanically.
He never thought that such a terrible scene would happen.
Manila, this time, something big is really going to happen! wok
…
The atmosphere in the room was very depressing.
Everyone's face was ashen.
Two wooden boxes are placed in the middle.
A box contains hardware materials.
There is also a box filled with books.
And inside, it should be gold! wok
"Tell me what you think." Takuma Shintani was the first to speak.
"Someone deliberately changed the contract." Meng Shaoyuan replied.
"Why are you so sure?" Masaharu Honma frowned: "What if the account book made a mistake?"
"Occasionally there are mistakes, which is understandable." Meng Shaoyuan said: "But all the gold in the box that was supposed to be gold is missing. This is not accidental. And this."
Meng Shaoyuan took out a hardware part from the wooden box: "This is a bracket used on a heavy machine gun. Why does it appear here? When there is a war, do you have to check where it is in the ledger in a hurry?"
He put down the stand, looked through another box, and then picked up a book: "What is this? This is a book written by a Japanese writer. It can be purchased anytime and anywhere.
Who would seriously hide such an ordinary book here? Not only this one, Sir, you can take a look, this box is full of ordinary books! "Wok
Takuma Shintani's expression became serious: "You mean, someone stole the gold and then replaced it with other items to create an illusion."
"It's more than just that."
Meng Shaoyuan said: "My judgment is that in the process of stealing gold, the thieves were in a hurry and had no time to find other better substitutes, so they used these as temporary substitutes."
"idiot!"
Masaharu Honma was furious, but he quickly forced himself to calm down: "It is almost impossible to steal gold in a brazen manner on the dock, unless it is an organized theft gang."
"And they are very powerful." Takuma Shintani added for him: "It is not just any theft gang that can enter and leave these warehouses at will."
"Such a terrifying gang is hiding around us." Masaharu Honma sneered: "Shintani-kun, it's time to dig out these moths. Mr. Yamada, what do you think?"
"Full support!" Yamada Yoshitaro said coldly: "This is a crime, and it happened right under our noses. This is also a provocation to us. These shameless and despicable thieves must be caught!"
Masaharu Honma nodded: "Shintani-kun, I'll leave it to you. Set up an investigation team immediately, with you as the team leader, and solve the case as soon as possible!"
"Hai!"
Takuma Shintani immediately said: "Shibu Taniguchi, Eguchi and Mizu, you were the first to discover it. From now on, you are also members of the investigation team. Work with me to solve the case and catch the thief as soon as possible!"
