“Does anyone else have something to say?”

Wang Jing looked around at the people sitting around her. The atmosphere was a little depressing.

“I have a question.” Han Ning came back to his senses.

“Go ahead.” Wang Jing gestured for him to continue.

“The Mermaid’s Tear has been lost for a long time, so why has it suddenly appeared again? Does it belong to a personal seller? Is this gem the real Mermaid’s Tear?”

“Eh? A lost gem?” Everyone was shocked.

Hearing Han Ning’s question, everyone was confused.

“Yeah.” Wang Jing nodded in approval.

“Han Ning’s question has hit the nail on the head.”

“According to the general manager of the auction house, the Mermaid’s Tear belongs to one of their old clients. However, they are not willing to reveal to us who this client is. They only said that this person has a mysterious background.”

Wang Jing said with a serious expression.

“Team Leader, shouldn’t we go to the auction house first and understand the situation before continuing our discussion?”

Zhou Zhan was not good at case analysis. Every time there was a discussion about the case, he would get impatient. He was still best at on-site investigation.

As long as there were any clues at the scene, it would not escape his eyes.

Because of this pair of eyes that were good at finding clues, many colleagues in the criminal police department joked that he was the reincarnation of Erlang Shen. Once his “Heavenly Eye” was activated, nothing could escape his detection.

“Yes, of course. Pick someone to go with you and gather more information,” Wang Jing said.

“Team Leader, why don’t you let me go?” Han Ning volunteered. He was very interested in this case.

Wang Jing thought for a while and nodded.

After the meeting ended, Han Ning followed Zhou Zhan to the head office of the Jiaside Auction House located in the West Loop.

“Big corporations are really different. They really put on airs.”

Zhou Zhan and Han Ning waited in the resting area of the auction hall for an hour, but the person-in-charge still hadn’t arrived.

Zhou Zhan complained to Han Ning in a low voice.

“Aren’t these big capitalists all like this? It’s quite normal.”

Han Ning calmly drank his tea. His expression was calm as he replied casually.

Zhou Zhan looked at the calm Han Ning beside him. For a moment, he could not tell who was the senior.

“I’m sorry, I was delayed by some company matters.”

Outside the resting area, a middle-aged man with combed back hair walked quickly towards Han Ning and Zhou Zhan.

He was dressed in a tailored suit and had a gold watch on his wrist. From his attire to his accessories, one could easily tell his wealth and status.

Han Ning and Zhou Zhan stood up.

“It’s fine. Your company is a big company. It’s understandable for you to be busy.”

Seeing that Zhou Zhan had no intention of speaking, Han Ning took the initiative to start the conversation.

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“Oh, right. Let me introduce myself. I’m the general manager of this auction house. My surname is Jin and my name is Lin.”

When the middle-aged man spoke, his face carried a sense of superiority.

After Jin Lin finished his introduction, the female secretary behind him handed a gilded business card to Han Ning.

“Hello, Mr. Jin. We’re from Interpol’s Team Three. We’re here to learn about the situation of the international burglary case. My surname is Han, and this is my colleague, Zhou.” Han Ning introduced.

“Little Han, Little Zhou…” Jin Lin called out to the two of them.

“Since our company is seeking help from the police, I hope the police will take it seriously.”

“After all, we don’t want you to catch the criminal. You just need to make sure that the gem doesn’t get stolen here. The police from your headquarters should be able to ensure that, right?” Jin Lin narrowed his small eyes and said.

“Of course!” Han Ning agreed without hesitation.

“That’s good. If the Hong Kong police officers are as capable as Xiao Han, our citizens will have nothing to worry about.”

Then, the two of them followed Jin Lin around the auction house.

Jin Lin was familiar with the terrain and their security.

“Our security system is as sophisticated as the security system of a museum. It is impossible for anything to be stolen.”

“In addition, there are professional security guards patrolling the entire auction house 24 hours a day, as well as 360-degree surveillance cameras. They are equipped with high-powered backup power sources that can work effectively in any unexpected situations.”

“There are four sides of the auction house, and only one door to enter and exit. Other than that door, there’s no other way to enter.”

Under the introduction of Jin Lin, they realized that the entire auction house was like a sealed jar, giving the thief absolutely no chance to take advantage.

“Since your security is so strong, why did you still request assistance from the police? You don’t believe us anyway.”

Along the way, Jin Lin’s arrogant words and his disdain for the police provoked Zhou Zhan.

Han Ning also thought that the other party’s security system was very powerful. Unless the international thief, the Hundred Transformations Godly Thief, was an immortal, it was impossible for him to complete the theft without anyone knowing.

Zhou Zhan’s question made Jin Lin’s complexion turn ugly. He felt offended.

Han Ning agreed with Zhou Zhan and didn’t apologize to Jin Lin.

Seeing that it was getting late, Han Ning decided to leave.

In order to maintain the bearing of a successful person, Jin Lin couldn’t flare up at Zhou Zhan, so he could only endure his anger.

After exchanging a few words of pleasantries, he was escorted out of the lobby by his secretary.

Zhou Zhan grumbled as he walked out with Han Ning.

As they walked, Han Ning accidentally bumped into a Caucasian man.

“I’m sorry, are you alright?” Han Ning quickly apologized.

“I… It’s okay…” The Caucasian man was about to get angry when he suddenly changed his voice to a whisper.

It was only then that Han Ning realized that the other party was a foreigner. His figure was different from that of a typical burly Caucasian.

The man in front of him was small and skinny.

However, Han Ning felt that something was off. This was the intuition he had developed after ten years of being a detective.

In his eyes, the other party was like a wolf wearing a sheepskin, pretending to be harmless.

However, the look of fear on the other party’s face was very real. Han Ning couldn’t tell if it was an illusion.

Before Han Ning could say anything, the other party had already left the door.

At this moment, a notification popped up from the system.

[You have obtained a new skill, Thief skill, Vision Transfer x 5. Your skill attributes have increased slightly.]

Han Ning was shocked. He quietly checked the attributes page. There was indeed a Thief skill under the skill stats. He shifted his gaze.

Something was definitely wrong with this Caucasian!

His system would only drop attribute fragments when he came into contact with criminals or people related to the case.

Zhou Zhan saw that Han Ning stood still after hitting someone and was thinking about something.

“Han Ning, what’s wrong?”

Han Ning turned around to look at the Caucasian.

“There’s something wrong with that person!”

Han Ning called Zhou Zhan in a low voice and went straight to the auction house’s monitoring room.

The two of them watched the Caucasian closely.

They realized that his route was very strange, as if he was going back and forth according to a specific route.

Zhou Zhan, who was initially puzzled, also noticed something wrong with the man after observing for a while. He started to observe carefully.

His admiration for Han Ning deepened. Zhou Zhan realized that Han Ning had a keen sense for criminals and assumed that he was either experienced or naturally sensitive.

Two hours later, the white man finally left the auction house and their observations came to an end.

“Let’s go back to the station and get Zhang Zhi to investigate this white man.”

After Han Ning confirmed his guess, he immediately pulled Zhou Zhan back to the bureau to report the situation..
