On May 1, 2220, Eternal Love was exhibited for the first time in the French National Museum.
When the museum was closed that night, security personnel did a routine inspection of all exhibits and found that Eternal Love had been stolen.
The person in charge of the museum immediately called the police and sealed off the scene.
The local Bureau of Investigation realized that the case was complicated, so it asked for help from the headquarters. The head of the investigation team sent by the headquarters was Hodgson, who was in full swing at the time.
After Hodgson arrived at the museum, he immediately surveyed the scene and found that the case was somewhat unusual.
The museum was closed at 5 o’clock in the afternoon of the same day, and visitors were not allowed to enter. By 6 o’clock, there were only cleaning staff and some security guards on duty in the venue, a total of about 30 people.
At 9 o’clock in the evening, when the clean-up work was completed and all the staff were about to leave the venue, a security guard accidentally discovered that the eternal love in the showcase had disappeared.
What makes Hodgson most strange is that, according to the confession of the people present, about ten minutes ago, that is, at 8:50, a cleaning staff had just wiped the glass of the showcase. At that time, the ring was lying there.
In other words, if someone steals this ring, it is what happened in these ten minutes.
The original case was actually very simple, because this eternal love is a separate exhibition hall, and cameras are installed in all the four upper corners of the exhibition hall, which can be said to monitor the showcase where the ring is located in a 360-degree view.
Not to mention a person taking the ring away, even if a mosquito flies in, it will not escape the eyes of these surveillance.
But when Hodgson checked the surveillance video, he found something incredible.
At 8:55, when the cleaning staff left the exhibition hall, the four monitoring probes were broken away from their original angles by a mysterious force within ten seconds, and they all face up to the sky, shining on the ceiling.
The reason why it is called a mysterious force is because there was no one in the exhibition hall at that time!
Neither the surveillance probes in the corridors inside nor outside saw anyone going out or coming in.
When Hodgson saw this scene, he only felt a chill in his back, and said in a voice that no one could hear: “What the hell.”
And the strangeness of this case is not only that, because eternal love is very precious, and it uses the most advanced anti-theft technology at the time.
The showcase is made of special bulletproof glass, which is closely connected with the booth below. There is no gap at all. Forced opening or violent breakthrough without permission will trigger the alarm device.
Even the brocade box under the ring uses pressure sensing technology. Once someone removes the ring from it, an alarm will also be triggered.
With this double insurance, theft is almost impossible, but it does happen.
Hodgson carefully inspected the scene and found that the outside showcase was intact, with no signs of being broken, and a stone was placed in the brocade box that originally contained the ring.
Someone went through the thick layer of glass, and came to a surreptitious change.
Hodgson had never seen the magic performed by Liu Qian in the Spring Evening, otherwise he might have traveled to Country C and asked him how he did it. After all, there are always some people who use magic under the guise of magic.
Hodgson also wanted to test whether he could do the same thing, but as long as the showcase received a very small vibration, the alarm would be triggered, and there was no way to reach in, let alone replace the ring inside with a stone.
Later, he targeted the 30 staff members in the venue. After all, it took only ten minutes from the ring stolen to the discovery. At 9:05, the person in charge who received the report closed the gate of the museum. .
No matter what method the thief uses to steal the ring, Hodgson believes that he must not be able to ship the ring out in such a short period of time.
The ring must still be in the museum, even on the thief’s body.
He brought all 30 staff under control, searched and inspected, and even monitored their excrement. It took another three days to search the entire museum carpet-like, but nothing was found.
The ring seemed to have evaporated from the world.
Whether it is the modus operandi or the whereabouts of the stolen property, there is no clue. Hodgson has dealt with the case for many years and has never encountered such a difficult situation, and the investigation has been deadlocked for a while.
At this moment, the case suddenly turned around.
The colleague in charge of researching surveillance video analyzed the ten-minute surveillance video of the ring stolen frame by frame through technical means.
They were surprised to find that the monitoring probe was turned by hand.
The proof is that at the moment the camera turned, two finger-like things flashed by in the screen.
The finger flashed very fast, leaving an afterimage that the naked eye could not see in the video.
Fortunately, the image analysis technology at the time was quite mature. After two days, colleagues in the technical department successfully restored the appearance of the two fingers.
The complexion was white, slender and slender, and seemed to be a woman’s hand.
This is a considerable breakthrough.
Hodgson immediately became excited.
He re-interrogated all the female suspects again, but the result was very helpless. No one’s hand characteristics matched the picture, and the other party did not leave fingerprints.
Just when Hodgson wanted to expand the scope of the search, he suddenly found a place that he hadn’t noticed before.
The floor of the exhibition room is five meters high. If a person wants to distort those monitoring probes without the help of tools, unless he can fly.
Hodgson gave himself a mouthful at that time, because the whole world was paying attention to this case, and he was under too much pressure to ignore these details.
It’s not just a matter of floor height.
That hand can smash all four probes in ten seconds, unless the other party uses it to run, otherwise, in such a short period of time, you can’t walk this distance.
Obviously a clue was found, but it brought more questions to Hodgson.
Hodgson couldn’t eat well and sleep well, and he almost turned pale.
One night, he even had a nightmare, dreaming that the woman’s hand stretched out from the void and caught his neck.
And the next day, his assistant suddenly said to him mysteriously: “Inspector, I think that the one who stole the ring should not be a human…”
Hodgson stopped his nonsense decisively.
After solving the cases for so many years, Hodgson has also seen many bizarre cases, and in the end they all proved to be human.
It can be said that he is a very firm materialist.
But the incident this time is indeed very different from the past.
Hodgson could not lie to himself.
Holmes once said.
After eliminating all impossible situations, the rest, no matter how incredible, must be the truth.
At this time, the above had already started urging him.
So he filed a report to the Bureau of Investigation.
He only wrote one sentence in the report.
Ghosts commit crimes.
Oddington, Director of the Bureau of Investigation, slammed the report on his face: “You let me use this to explain to the people of the whole country?”
Hodgson lowered his head and said, “Your Majesty, this is the conclusion I have reached after investigating for a month. Except for ghosts, I can’t think of anyone who can do such a thing. If you don’t believe my conclusion, you can let other colleagues take over the case. .”
Hodgson “destroyed himself”, and Director Odington couldn’t help him. Who made him the best agent in France.
Director Oddington did send other people to investigate, but either did nothing, or just like Hodgson’s conclusion, he believed that manpower was impossible.
As a last resort, Odington can only make his subordinates compile a “reasonable” dossier. Even if they can’t find the ring, they can’t be ridiculed by people across the country and the world.
Although it was ridiculed in the end.
This is the whole story of the robbery of eternal love.
After Hodgson finished speaking, he lit a cigarette.
Although three years have passed, he can still remember every detail, enough to see the impact of this case on him.
Zhang Jue has been holding his chin, obviously thinking too.
It was the woman’s hand that was at work again.
I really found the right place this time.
Is it really just a ghost?
A ghost will come to steal the ring? Will push him to Shirley?
Zhang Jue couldn’t figure it out.
However, in this world of anomalous biological administration, probably anything can happen.
“Inspector Hodgson, have you investigated the tourists who visited during the day?” Zhang Jue asked.
Hodgson shook his head: “At that time, the museum was open to the public for a full eight hours. There were more than 2,000 people who visited’Eternal Love’, and a large part of them were tourists from abroad. It is impossible to investigate them one by one. At that time, the situation did not allow me to do that at all. However, I have watched the surveillance video many times, and no one came within two meters of the ring.”
Zhang Jue nodded.
Hodgson is just a detective, his ability and power are very limited, this matter is very sensitive, accidentally may even rise to a diplomatic incident.
This case is even more tortuous and bizarre than Zhang Jue’s experience, and it is no wonder that Hodgson and no one are willing to bring it up.
Hodgson has only so many clues, after Zhang Jue listened, he planned to leave.
Before he could speak, he saw another police car parked on the side of the road, and a young agent came down from the top and rushed towards the farm.
Zhang Jue thought he was sent by Director Oddington to find him, but the agent walked up to him and was stunned when he saw him and Jack, and then asked Hodgson, “Teacher, who are they?”
“Um…” Hodgson didn’t know how to introduce Zhang Jue’s identity.
Zhang Jue first stretched out his hand: “Mark Zhang, an amateur writer, come and inquire about the theft of Eternal Love three years ago with Inspector Hodgson, and prepare to adapt it into a novel.”
The young agent looked at him up and down: “The case is still open. I want to adapt it into a novel now, right?”
Hodgson frowned and said, “Galair, don’t be unreasonable. This is the British royal family… a specially-appointed writer. He has been authorized to know the details of the case-why are you coming to me?”
Galair glanced at Zhang Jue and saw Agent Jack next to him. Although they belonged to different departments, they also knew each other and knew that he was the confidant of Director Oddington.
Galair pondered for a moment, sighed, and said, “Teacher, I am here today, also for that case.”
…
The eternal love that has disappeared for three years is toured, and the French National Museum is on display again.
But how it came back, the Bureau of Investigation did not disclose to the outside world.
Because this involves another case.
I don’t know if it’s really fateful. This case was the responsibility of Hodgson’s student who was a teacher at the police academy, Galair.
Simply put, the ring was found at the scene of a murder case.
A family of three, two dead and one injured.
The state of death of the two deceased was very strange, and the expressions on their faces were terrified, as if they had seen something extraordinary before they died.
When the neighbor came to visit, he smelled the blood in the house and reported the crime.
The investigator rushed in upon hearing the news, broke in, and found the only survivor in the closet-the eighteen-year-old daughters of the two deceased.
Galair surveyed the scene according to the usual homicide method.
He found that the house was very clean, without any signs of intrusion.
Even the door and windows of the room were locked.
It seems that I deliberately don’t want people to run out.
The whole house is like a huge secret room.
Except for the reporter, the surveillance outside the door did not capture any other visitors.
I don’t know how the murderer got in, let alone how he left.
Galair led his team to investigate for a week, and the progress made was very limited.
Then he thought of the theft case his teacher investigated three years ago, when some people said it was a ghost.
Naturally, Galair didn’t believe it, so he rushed over, wanting to inquire about the details of the case with the teacher.
Because judging from this impossibly criminal modus operandi, the thief and the murderer are most likely to be one person~www.mtlnovel.com~ After Galair’s introduction, Hodgson sighed.
If it were him a few years ago, he would definitely join Galair’s team and check it out.
But now he is lame, and the most important thing is that he no longer has that energy. Even if it is possible to find new clues, he doesn’t want to move.
Seeing his teacher look like this, Galair sighed, but didn’t have much to say, saying goodbye to leave, but was stopped by the writer Mark Zhang.
“Agent Galair, I will investigate this case with you, maybe we can make some progress,” he said.
Galair hadn’t had a very good impression of him, so he could not help but glanced at him. The meaning was obvious-it’s up to you?
The writer seemed to see the disdain in his eyes and laughed.
“Okay, don’t pretend. I’m going to showdown. I’m not a writer, let alone a prince. I’m the president of the British Royal Reasoning Association. I was invited by the head of my country to help you catch the murderer. How about? Are you scared?”
…
