Detective Files II

Chapter 358 Buyer

Lu Xiangdong slightly frowned at the clerk's words, but Tian Mi didn't have much reaction to such words. After all, the age difference is not too big, so this kind of words can still be used and accepted.

"Are you sure about this matter? Is there any evidence to prove it, or is it your own subjective guess?" Right now, this is what Tian Mi is most concerned about.

The clerk pursed his lips and did not speak. After thinking for a while, he hesitated and said, "I guessed it myself. If it turns out that I was wrong afterwards, you won't accuse me of perjury, will you?"

Tian Mi hurriedly waved her hand: "The police will go back to do the verification, so you can say whatever you want, don't have so many meaningless thoughts."

Her words reassured the clerk a lot, he let out a long breath, and gradually relaxed, although when she talked about Sun Linna to Tian Mi and Lu Xiangdong before, they were generally compliments, such as being a good person and being generous. Now, when it comes to speculation about Sun Linna's private life, it makes people feel that there is not enough respect and more than gossip.

"Let's put it this way, we are all women," the clerk said to Tian Mi, and glanced at Lu Xiangdong beside Tian Mi, "Although you are not a woman, you have been in this society for so many years anyway, and many things are not necessary Someone tells you what you can see or feel. Sister Na is quite beautiful, you probably already know this, right? She is not very old, she is not yet 30 years old. At home, she I said that I was very poor in the past. Even if she didn't go to college and ran out to make a living, it would take ten years at most? Tell me, if someone is not willing to be taken advantage of for her money, how could she be in such a short period of time? Within a short period of time, I lived in a big villa, drove a luxury car, and even bought a store to open such a store!"

"How's the business in the store?" The clerk's so-called conjecture didn't differ from most people's views, and couldn't arouse Tian Mi's curiosity, so she interrupted and asked casually.

The clerk opened the drawer on the table, took out an accounting book from it, and threw it on the table with a bang: "The last few months are all here! You can see for yourself! The ones that are further ahead have been taken by Sister Na." I’m gone, I’m not in the store, there’s no big difference anyway, there’s no such thing as off-season or peak season here, it’s pretty much the same from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.”

Tian Mi picked up the accounting book and flipped through it. Fortunately, neither the young clerk nor Sun Linna were professional accountants.

According to the figures on this ledger, the clothes in this clothing store have not received new clothes for almost a few months. Of course, the number of clothes sold is also very small.

"Can this store sustain such a turnover?" Tian Mi was a little surprised. Although she could feel the carelessness of this store before, she didn't expect the business to be so bad. " Has business been this bad while you were working here?"

"That's not the case. In the first year, Sister Na seemed to attach great importance to this store. She picked and picked the goods. She wished she could change the windows in the store in two days. Not to mention how good it is, at least it is much better than it is now! Later, I don’t know if it’s because the novelty has passed, but Sister Na became more and more unmotivated. I often find someone to buy the goods, and once I throw the goods in the store, the people don’t know where they went.”

"But even so, she never underpaid your wages, nor did she mention things like store exchange to you?"

The clerk nodded.

"During the past two years of working with Sun Linna, do you have any impression of the opposite sex around her? Does she have any close lovers or friends of the opposite sex?" Tian Mi asked again.

Hearing this question, the clerk burst out laughing, and the smile was not so much amused as a slight contempt: "Don't talk about friends of the opposite sex, I haven't even met her friends of the same sex! She does have a few friends who eat, drink, and wear clothes. You can tell at a glance that they are the kind who just take advantage of her and don't treat her sincerely. I have always wondered that Sister Na is not stupid. How could you hang out with those people. Boyfriend, I think she has one, but never seen it."

"How do you say this?"

"It's just a feeling. Sometimes when she answers the phone or calls the other party, the expression is clearly the tone of a girlfriend calling her boyfriend. But, she is quite shy of me, and she always answers the phone without saying a few words. , I ran outside to talk about it.” The clerk seemed to be very concerned about this matter, and he still has a bit of resentment when he mentions it.

"However, I don't know if the boyfriend she often calls is the same as the person who gave her money. I haven't seen it anyway," the clerk added. He is very low-key about things and never talks about it with others.”

After chatting with the clerk, Tian Mi received a call from Mo Dou, saying that Sun Linna's mother had called and that she would be arriving at the train station soon. Because she was not familiar with the place of life in C City, she hoped that someone would pick it up there, but he and Tian Yang has something on hand, and he can't get away, so he asked Tian Mi and Lu Xiangdong if they could find a way to solve it.

Tian Mi and Lu Xiangdong discussed it, and finally decided that Lu Xiangdong would go to the train station to pick him up, while Tian Mi went to a nearby shopping mall to find the ring Sun Linna found under the bed and go to the corresponding counter to inquire about the situation and see if he could find some. Regarding the clues to the meaning of "7AN" on the inner wall of the ring, go back to the Public Security Bureau and talk to Sun Linna's mother.

After discussing it properly, the two split up, Lu Xiangdong drove to the train station, and Tian Mi went into a nearby high-end shopping mall alone.

In the morning of the non-rest day, the shopping mall is a bit depressed, but even so, the strong fragrance of cosmetics and the assortment of cosmetics and perfumes on the first floor still fill the place with a shopping atmosphere.

Tian Mi is also a young girl who loves shopping, but unfortunately, her heart is suppressed by the case at the moment, and she doesn't have the leisurely mood at all. As soon as she entered the mall, she followed the shopping guide at the door and looked for the jewelry area.

Sun Linna's ring was from a famous international brand, and she quickly found a spacious counter in the shopping mall. Inside, three or four beautiful salesmen in uniforms were standing bored inside the counter.

Seeing Tian Mi walk in, the clerk closest to the door shouted "Welcome" in a symbolic way, and the others looked at Tian Mi who was dressed from head to toe in plain casual attire, but didn't agree with her.

Tian Mi has long been used to this kind of situation, so she didn't take it seriously, and glanced at the counter by the way, the international famous brand is indeed an international famous brand, even the very inconspicuous small jewelry, Tian Mi usually buys it for a month or two The salary, such a price made her silently speechless in her heart.

Tian Mi came to the counter, took out the ring in the evidence bag from her bag, and asked a clerk who was closest to her: "Excuse me, is this ring a product of this brand?"

The clerk took it over and wanted to take the ring out of the bag, but Tian Mi stopped her. She looked at Tian Mi suspiciously, and Tian Mi reiterated: "I'm not here to verify the ring's authenticity, I just want to ask, this Is this a product of this brand?"

"Yes, this is a series we launched before Valentine's Day at the beginning of this year," the clerk nodded coldly, and pouted at the counter beside him, "Well, it's still on sale now."

Tian Mi looked in the direction she indicated, and sure enough, several rings with similar styles were quietly placed on the glass counter, shining with noble luster under the light.

More expensive than gloss, of course, is obviously their price.

Good guy, this ring that fell under the bed was worth a quarter of my salary!Tian Mi was a little surprised.

"Then I would like to ask, are these characters used by your brand to indicate the composition or serial number of jewelry?" Tian Mi pointed to the three characters "7AN" and asked the clerk.

The clerk took a closer look in wonder, and shook his head: "No, this should be engraved after the customer requested it."

"So that's the case, then I would like to trouble you to check the records to see if the ring that was required to be engraved with '7AN' was sold from your store." Tian Mi revealed her identity to the clerk, and at the same time proposed own requirements.

It is understood that this brand has only three counters in City C, and only this one is in the most commercial center of City C, and it is only a short 10-minute walk from Sun Linna's clothing store, unless this ring was bought for her by someone else Otherwise, the probability of this counter is obviously the highest.

The clerk saw that it was the police who came to investigate the situation, even though he was a little reluctant, he still memorized these three characters without saying a word, and went to check the records later.

After a while, she came out from behind, holding a printed record in her hand. Above a large row of reservation information, there was a line marked with a highlighter.

"There is indeed a record in our records that accepts the customer's request to engrave '7AN' on the inside of the ring, but I don't know if it's the one in your hand." The clerk handed the record to Tian Mi.

Tian Mi took it over and looked at it, and recorded the name of the person who ordered it. Sure enough, it said "Sun Linna", and the order date was late January.

It seems that she really bought this ring for herself, but what does the "7AN" on the inside of the ring mean?She ordered an expensive ring engraved with special characters for herself on the eve of Valentine's Day, but then let it fall under the bed. What kind of story is hidden in it?
