Boss …
For a long time, because Cui Fangyu was known as the third brother and Tao Xiang was older than him, Zhao Yu had always thought that Tao Xiang was their big brother!
Unexpectedly, Tao Xiang was only the second brother, and there was another big brother above him!
"This person is called Li Fei. He was the one who brought the goods that you found!" Flying Squirrel Gao said. "Although he was the big brother, he didn't like to talk much. Plus, his eyes were gloomy, which gave me goosebumps. But, he treated me quite well. When I first joined the profession, he took good care of me! "
"He was different from Tao Xiang. Although Li Fei was the big brother, his skills were much worse than Tao Xiang's. So, he often stayed at home to help master's wife with some trivial matters. He wasn't like Tao Xiang, who often accompanied master to work. "
"Then, something happened!" Flying Squirrel Gao said. "One time, master took Tao Xiang out again. But, not long after master left, big brother Li Fei suddenly ran away from home! "
"What was strange was that, after Li Fei left, master's wife disappeared too!"
"When master came back, of course, he was anxious. He immediately sent people to look for her, but they couldn't find her. A few days later, his master's high blood pressure flared up due to anxiety, and he fell ill!
"At that time, everything was handled by Tao Xiang, third brother, and fourth sister. Fifth brother and I were young, so we were both sent home. So, we didn't know what happened."
"It was about a month or so! I first heard that master's wife was found. She was suddenly ill, so big brother took her to the hospital! " "Then, a few days later, I heard that master and master's wife had both died!"
"Maybe we were afraid that the police would find out about us, so we didn't attend the funeral. Since then, we never went back! As the saying goes, when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. So, we went our separate ways! "
"But, after all, we were all from Bai Ling, and we were under the same master. I had some contact with third brother and fourth sister, and they were very loyal. They helped me a lot and even lent me a lot of money."
"But, unfortunately, I didn't live up to their expectations. I lost money, so I ran away! Who would have thought that the two of them would end up with the same fate as their Master and Mistress, both of them had passed away!
"Sigh! The affairs of the world are really unpredictable! "
Hearing this, Cui Lizhu couldn't hide her excitement and tears welled up in her eyes. It seemed like she wanted to tell Flying Squirrel Gao about her identity and that she was the child of Third Brother and Fourth Sister. However, Zhao Yu still tugged at her gently and didn't let her say anything.
"Flying Squirrel Gao, tell me in more detail about how Li Fei asked you to sell stolen goods five years ago!" Zhao Yu asked, "How did you know that those goods belonged to Tao Xiang?"
"Not five years ago, but six years ago!" Flying Squirrel Gao corrected him. "I definitely won't forget that. That year, I offended someone and got my leg broken! Plus, when Li Fei looked for me to sell something, it was not long after the Gem Theft Case happened. I even asked him if they had stolen the gemstones! "
"Oh?" Zhao Yu suddenly perked up and hurriedly asked, "Tell me more!"
"At that time, I was recuperating at home!" Flying Squirrel Gao recalled. "Do you know how coincidental that was? I was watching the news on TV about the stolen gemstones. Who would have thought that Li Fei would come looking for me? "
"I don't know how he found me! As soon as he entered the door, he brought a box of awesome items over and asked me to sell them for him! Plus, he said that he was in urgent need of money, so he could sell them at a lower price! "
"I'm not a fool. Of course, I knew that those things definitely didn't come from a legitimate source! But, the one million that he offered was too tempting! To be honest, those things were worth more than ten million at that time! "
"Although I hadn't opened an antique shop at that time, I still had some connections. So, I went straight to Mr. Liu, who owned the factory, and sold the items to him!
Mr. Liu was rich, and he liked to collect items. Plus, he never showed off. So, it was perfect to sell it to him! "
"Humph! You sold it for two million, and you earned one million from your brother!" Zhao Yu smiled and shook his head. "That's a good deal!"
"Well … I won't explain further, as you all know that even blood brothers can't do anything about it, let alone brothers. Hehe … "Flying Squirrel Gao smiled bitterly." When I gave him the money, I asked him a few questions. I asked him where he got all those good items from. Li Fei told me that they belonged to Tao Xiang, and that Tao Xiang was short of money, so he wanted to dump them! "
"I also asked Li Fei about the Indian gemstone, but he denied it. He said that the gemstone had nothing to do with them. He said that they didn't steal it, and that it was just a rumor!"
Seeing that Zhao Yu and the others were listening attentively, Flying Squirrel Gao paused deliberately, then said, "But, police officers, I know that Li Fei wasn't telling me the truth. Li Fei was different from Tao Xiang. Although he was also a thief, he wasn't good at hiding his thoughts."
"When he answered me, his eyes were dodging my questions, and he was very nervous. I guessed that he must have lied, and that the Indian gemstone must have been stolen by him and Tao Xiang! "
"To be honest, although Tao Xiang was known as the king of thieves, I was quite surprised that he could do such a thing! Stealing an item of this level usually did not have a good ending. It was really … too eye-catching!
He then added, "So, I thought that Tao Xiang took out all his treasures and sold them. It was obvious that the two of them wanted to run away!"
"Li Fei wasn't a fool. How could he not know the value of those stolen items? The fact that he agreed to sell them at a price of one million dollars meant that he was in urgent need of money! "
He then added, "Maybe someone was already chasing after him! When Li Fei saw me, his clothes were torn, and there were many bruises on his face. It was obvious that he had fought with someone! "
He then added, "You don't know that Li Fei is a very gloomy person, especially his eyes. So, I didn't dare to ask any more questions. After he gave me the money, he left! "
He then added, "But, this incident still made me worried for a few days! I was afraid that I would be implicated, so I went into hiding somewhere else for some time. But, I never expected that … Hehe … "He then shrugged." It took six years before someone finally remembered me! "
"Oh yeah … I saw the news a few days ago. I heard that the king of thieves, Tao Xiang, was arrested. Don't tell me … you still haven't found that Indian gem? "
…
Half an hour later, Zhao Yu returned to the special investigation group's office. Looking at the information on the whiteboard, he once again had mixed feelings and his thoughts were in a mess.
Although the clues had been dug out one by one by him, and now, even the major suspect had surfaced.
However, a huge difficulty was gradually placed in front of him.
Without a doubt, if Flying Squirrel Gao's confession was true, then the boss, Li Fei, was undoubtedly the biggest suspect. This person was most likely the mysterious accomplice who had been scouting with Tao Xiang! Only he could understand Tao Xiang's secret signal.
Besides, when Li Fei sold Tao Xiang's stolen items to Flying Squirrel Gao, not only was the gemstone stolen, but it was also the exact same time that someone had stolen Tao Xiang's treasure and placed his head in the metal box!
This person was most likely Li Fei!
Gloomy face, cold eyes …
