Nine-tiered fairy lotus

Chapter 224
After a short rest after lunch, a few people came to the next antique street, which was smaller and more hidden than the first place. If it weren't for the police's inside information, they would never have imagined that there would be a hole in this dark street.

The heavy snow covered up a lot of smells, but it couldn’t cover up the smell of the road. The fresh smell of snowflakes, the smell of wood, the rotten smell of grass, the smell of soil in the corner, the smell of people passing by, and the smell of cats and dogs are all mixed together, rushing to the face together. Come on, the sourness, only those who have experienced it will know.

"It's decent." Hu Tu walked into the narrow street, those stalls were not placed on the street, but in the houses on both sides.There are no windows in the house, standing at the door and looking in, it is as dark as a haunted house, and the lights are not turned on, so people who enter can only see vaguely, which undoubtedly makes it more difficult to distinguish between true and false.

"Go in?" Chen Peipei was a little timid. She is used to standing in the light. Although she is not afraid of the dark environment, she definitely does not like it.

"Of course, go in. How could you not go in when you're here?" Hu Tu replied affirmatively.This environment is restrictive to others, but it has no effect on him, but makes him more at ease.But considering that girls are often afraid of the dark, he said, "If you don't like it, you can wait outside, and I will read it as soon as possible."

But before Hu Tu walked in, the boss sitting in the corner of the room asked in a low voice, "Are you all policemen?"

His voice is like an antique, with a sense of time, but it can't be called very old.Following the sound and looking into the corner, it was a man wearing reading glasses, about fifty years old, with a wise smile on the corner of his mouth.Beside him was a desk lamp, shining on a thick book. The chair he was sitting on was made of mahogany and looked old, but Hu Tu could tell at a glance that the chair was antique.

Afterwards, Hu Tu and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. They all hid their identities, and the two police officers were also plainclothes. Why did they miss the point before they spoke?Chen Peipei shook her head. Hu Tu didn't know what she meant. He only guessed that she was telling him that she didn't take the initiative to reveal her identity and wanted him to keep hiding.

Hu Tu looked around, twisted his neck, and said, "Boss, are you talking about me? I'm not a policeman."

"Little young man, you are still lying to me." The boss said with a smile, "Stop pretending, the news that your police are arresting tomb robbers in the city has spread, I heard that there are three teams, one male and one female A team of young people, is it you? Hehe, my place is gloomy, young people are rare, and a man and a woman are even rarer, so don't pretend to be like me."

The light was too dim, and Hu Tu couldn't see Chen Peipei's face clearly, but he let her old man out so quickly, and it was clear that she must be in a bad mood after thinking about it.

Chen Peipei asked: "Okay, I admit that I am a policeman, but where did you know?"

Hu Tu could hear the eagerness and surprise in her voice, and felt her eyes flash past him, and the meaning of that look popped into his mind.She was doubting him, or everyone around her.

This made Hu Tu very dissatisfied.He was pulled over to help, and he didn't come here on his own initiative. If he doubted him, wouldn't it be "a dog biting Lu Dongbin—doesn't know a good heart"?But thinking about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with her thinking like this. After all, such a big mistake has happened, and every possibility must be ruled out. The most direct idea is to start with the people around her.

Hu Tu shook his head lightly. He fixed his eyes on the figure in the corner again, expecting him to give an answer as soon as possible to clear his suspicion.

The boss smiled and said: "Hehe, you policemen are too ill-informed about this news. You are not as good as a person who doesn't go out. Your colleagues were dragged to drink and eat by some sneaky guys. When they were drunk, Make this public, and foolishly ask everyone to help arrest people. Hehe, I think you should stop running around in the snow, go back and deal with your two pig-like teammates is the most important thing."

The boss spoke cheerfully, feeling a little gloating.It's no wonder that people in the antique business always need to get some fakes to fool people, so they have never dealt with the police. There was a mistake in the police, which gave him the idea that "the world is as black as crows".Just like this, the police still come out to investigate them, so let's organize our own team first.

Chen Peipei clenched her fists tightly. At this moment, she really wanted to throw something, or punch someone twice, but thinking about the tens of thousands of antiques, she couldn't afford to pay, so she held back.She said: "Your words are all true? Who did you listen to, and which two police officers were drinking and talking nonsense?"

The boss put down the book and said, "I'm an honest businessman. Of course I told the truth when I told the police. Besides, it's obvious. If you don't believe me, just call and ask."

Of course Chen Peipei wanted to ask, she took out her mobile phone, went to the side and called the leader, and reported in a soft voice, suppressing the resentment in her heart.

Don't listen to insults, Hu Tu suddenly smiled, rubbed his hands and said: "It seems that this matter is over, then I don't have to mess with the police anymore, boss, what good things do you have, show me .”

The boss shook his head and said, "Officer, my store is relatively small, and everything is here. If you want to buy something, I can give you a reasonable price." Doing business with the police is not good for making money. Worse, and he didn't want to see the police bribe, so he used these obvious fakes to fool people.

"I'm not a policeman." Hu Tu spread his hands and said, "Look, there are two people outside. They are policemen, but I am not."

What's the use of saying this now, in the eyes of this boss, even if Hu Tu is not a policeman, he is closely related to the police, so he killed nothing more, which made Hu Tu very dissatisfied.

After a while, Chen Peipei came over and said, "Hu Tu, let's go, the task is over."

Hu Tu waved his hand and said, "It's just right when it's over. Let's go. I'm not a policeman. Binzi, you can go back and drive my car later. I'm going for a walk on the street." No matter where you plan to go, this store He didn't see much to see, he walked out under Chen Peipei's urging, looked at another store and said, "You don't have to worry about me, just go first."

Chen Peipei suddenly came over and took Hu Tu's arm, and said in a low voice, "Who said we are leaving, go to the car first, and let's discuss what to do next."

Hu Tu asked puzzledly: "Aren't you leaving? Everyone knows that you are a policeman, so what do you expect to find out?"

Chen Peipei explained: "Not only do they know that I am a policeman, but now they also know that all the policemen have been transferred back, so the group of tomb robbers is more likely to come out to operate. The leader said, we will continue to investigate, but we need to change the method .”
