Cheng Shi left the patrol room, first came to a shopping mall street, and then started walking in the direction of Lei Ming's house.
He walked along the road for about ten minutes and came to the outside of a house. He saw the house number in front of the house. This was Lei Ming's home.
Then he didn't open the door and went in, but went to the antique shop street again and arrived at the antique street.
Cheng Shi turned around and looked at the road he was looking at. Sure enough, his guess just now was correct, from here to Lei Ming's home.
From Lei Ming's home to the shopping mall, taking his route is the closest, and it can be said that Lei Ming's home is the center point of the two streets.
Just finding this on the map and judging that Lei Ming's house is the center point is not enough. Cheng Shi walked around for a while this time.
It proves that Lei Ming's house is the center point of the two streets, if this counterfeiting gang is not an outsider.
Lei Ming's house should be an intermediate station for their gang in the antique world and shopping malls, a counterfeiting den, and a sales place.
Sure enough, as Cheng Shi guessed, they are most likely not immigrants, they are the only ones who have been operating this industry here for a long time.
There is so much information about ancient paintings, the basis for their fraud, and information about many sales channels.
If outsiders just want to make a fortune, the amount will not be so large at all, so that can be explained.
Now Cheng Shi felt more confident that his idea was correct, and Lei Ming's house should be a transfer station.
As for what to transfer, is it one of their material warehouses, or is it a transfer station for their finished products before they are sold? !
Moreover, they should not only be engaged in the business of high-end fake paintings, but also probably some low-end businesses.
After all, the counterfeiting of high-end ancient paintings takes a long time, plus the risks involved in selling them to professionals, and the results are too slow.
So they should still have some low-end counterfeiting industries, which are used to sell to antique shops, and then let the antique shops sell to customers.
Therefore, they need to transport things back and forth between the two streets. The distance between Lei Ming's house is exactly in the middle of the two streets.
Moreover, Lei Ming is a craftsman, and it is normal for craftsmen to bring some tools back and forth to work.
It is normal for things that need to be transported to be disguised in his tools, so as not to arouse curiosity and increase the risk of exposure.
But looking at it now, there has been no news from Lei Ming for five days. Did they abandon this location and move away? !
But Cheng Shi still had to check whether the other party had moved or temporarily stopped moving.
Deng Xintange's search for someone had already alarmed them, so Cheng Shi had to be cautious about the subsequent investigation.
When he came to Lei Ming's house again, he saw Deng Xin standing at the door from a distance. Deng Xin also came over when he saw Cheng.
"Brother Cheng, why did you come here in person? Is there something wrong here?!"
Cheng Shi patted Deng Xin on the shoulder and said with some embarrassment: "I am here to apologize to you first. I was a little too arbitrary in my judgment of Lei Ming's identity at Tange's house.
He is not an insignificant person, and his home is not an ordinary place, it may be an important place in their team! "
Deng Xin said with a confused look on his face: "Why are you apologizing to me? Brother Cheng, you are not a god. It is normal for you to make mistakes in your judgment!"
Cheng Shi shook his head and said, "I know you have been a little too trusting in what I said recently.
Therefore, maybe because of my words, I am not wary enough about Lei Ming.
Because my arbitrariness may have put you in danger, I apologize to you. "
Deng Xin was stunned when he heard this, and felt moved in his heart. Judging from this, Cheng Shi really regarded him as a brother.
Deng Xin laughed quickly and said: "Brother Cheng, don't worry, I am a martial arts practitioner, and I am always wary!"
Cheng Shi glanced at Deng Xin, who was laughing, and realized that he had been worrying too much, but Cheng Shi still felt that he should be more cautious in doing things in the future.
Although the door of Lei Ming's house was locked, Cheng Shi motioned to Deng Xin to open the lock first. Deng Xin fiddled with it and quickly opened the lock.
Cheng Shi looked at the opened lock and did not go in immediately. Instead, he walked around Lei Ming's house and measured the area of his house.
After all, Lei Ming is a master at creating secret rooms. If this is really a transfer station and warehouse, there must be secret rooms here.
After Cheng Shi finished measuring, he returned to the gate and walked in with Deng Xin.
Cheng Shi walked around the windows and doors of the houses in the courtyard and found that all the windows and doors were locked.
From this point of view, the other party should not have evacuated, but just paused here. In the case of evacuation, they should not do this.
Cheng Shi looked at Deng Xin who opened the door, and began to feel uneasy. If he could really find valuable clues inside.
If there are important clues for their team here, they can follow the clues to find their people, and they will also find the son of the Tan family.
It has been more than ten hours since the disappearance of the young master of the Tan family, and accidents may happen at any time.
Although Cheng Shi was anxious, looking at the door that Deng Xin had opened, Cheng Shi did not go in immediately.
After all, this is an important place for the other party, and Lei Ming, as a craftsman, might have built some mechanism in the house.
Cheng Shi and Deng Xin said, "Go find a longer stick and something you can throw. There might be something fishy here!"
After taking the stick handed to him by Deng Xin, Cheng Shi stopped Deng Xin who wanted to go in first and said, "I'll go in first, you stay behind!"
When Deng Xin wanted to refute, Cheng Shi continued: "You react faster than me, and you can help me quickly if something happens."
Deng Xin then said: "How about I call some brothers over?!"
Cheng Shi didn't want to wait any longer, and Cheng Shi felt that there shouldn't be a fatal trap here. After all, it was just a den for fraud.
Cheng Shi then said: "It's okay, let's be careful, there should be no problem!"
Cheng Shi tapped the ground with a stick, but no mechanism was triggered. Only then did Cheng Shi walk into the bedroom here.
Cheng Shi noticed at a glance that there were many potted plants on the ground in the house. It really didn't look like a place for a single old man.
The other things in the room are very simple and can be seen at a glance, an ordinary bed, a long table and a chair.
Apart from a lot of tools and some wood carvings on the long table, this bedroom is very simple, so simple that there is nothing to see.
Cheng Shi then used a long stick to circle around the bedroom and found that there was nothing here, and there were no traps.
The house was very clean, and it didn't look like a house where a bachelor lived. Cheng Shi only found a few hundred French dollars in the pillow on the bed.
The only thing to see here is the wood carvings, which are very delicate. There is nothing else to see.
The only thing that was abnormal was that when Cheng Shi came in, he felt something colder than outside.
