M I H G Chapter 189: Krypton Gold Abstaining from Gambling, Broomcat Abstaining from Drug Abuse.

“When I found this bag, it was indeed put in a cardboard box in the trash, and was not mixed with other garbage with dirty oil stains,” the young policeman confirmed Frank's statement.

 

"Then the facts are obvious." Frank looked at Miss Qin and said: "If he is an ordinary thief, even if his target is the necklace in your bag, then he usually will have two choices; one is to open the box, take out the necklace, and hide it on the body, and then throw it in the trash together with the necklace box and the bag. In this case, the bag will be separated from the box and scattered in the trash, which will save time. The other is to remove the box and throw the bag in the trash.

 

“When I found this bag, it was indeed put in a cardboard box in the trash and was not mixed with other garbage with dirty oil stains,” the young policeman confirmed Frank's statement. “But whatever you do, the bag had to be thrown in the first place because a man holding a woman's handbag and in addition, pink color, will be too attractive for pedestrians."

 

Frank turned around, looked at Miss Qin with the bag in her hand, and said: "But now we found out that the necklace box is in the bag, and the bag is in a relatively clean place in the trash. So how do you reason about this situation?"

 

Frank looked at Miss Qin and said: "The thief who robbed you must be a person obsessed with cleanliness, loves cleanliness, and has a very good heart. After snatching your bag, he took out the necklace in the box, then the box was put back in the bag and the bag was placed in a clean box in the trash."

 

Miss Qin looked at Frank, already very upset at the moment, her eyes kept rolling in their sockets, trying to come up with a logically plausible argument to refute him. Still, he didn't give her that chance and continued: "The person who put the bag in the box has to be sure you'll go to that trash can to find your bag, so he did it that way."

 

"Suppose a cash-strapped high-end luxury store employee has to focus on a necklace worth hundreds of thousands at the jewelry store where she works because of a major economic crisis. Coincidentally, she is a tenant in the same room with a man who the landlord evicted him because he couldn't pay the rent. And she just knew this person would pass by this road every day at this time. So she went to this road, waiting for this person to appear, and immediately went to the trash, took out the jewelry and hid it, then threw the bag in the trash after being reassured that no one was paying attention to her and yelled my bag was stolen."

 

"According to her original plan, because there are no cameras here, no one would know if her bag was stolen or not. She just has to scream for a while, and after reporting the crime, the police will come and ask about the specific situation. Then the experienced police will find the bag for her in the trash."

 

Frank took the bag and said to Miss Qin: “That way you'll dispel much of the self-theft suspicion. When you arrive at the police station, you will take the opportunity to tell the story of Mr. Cheng, which will attract the attention of the police. And you know in advance that Mr. Cheng is a person who does not use a card and usually spends cash, so you can clean up perfectly. Even if the police suspect it, you will already have time to sell the stolen goods, and voila."

 

“I think there is something wrong with what you said,” Miss Qin finally started to refute Frank.

 

"What is the problem?" Frank looked at Miss Qin and said.

 

"From what you mean, the necklace was stolen by me, right?"

 

"Hmm," Frank nodded.

 

"So you can search me now to see if I have a necklace," Miss Qin opened her arms, looked at Frank, and said: "Come look."

 

Before Frank said anything, Sao Wen who was standing behind her suddenly approached and said to Frank, "Dear Frank, is what you said true or false? If you are sure it's true, I can search for her."

 

"Ahem."

 

The older policeman on the side coughed twice, then said: "Since this little brother brought up this possibility, so we have to check. We have a policewoman here, and can ask her to lead Miss Qin to the room there for a body search."

 

"Don't be so awkward." Frank looked at Miss Qin who was nervous but hadn't changed color and said: "I believe our smart Miss Qin wouldn't have put the necklace on her body. After all, even though I didn't suspect her, when she goes back to the jewelry store the manager will probably search her again to see if she can keep her work after being stealing."

 

"You mean I hid the necklace worth hundreds of thousands of dollars somewhere?" Miss Qin asked Frank.

 

"Of course not, you certainly wouldn't dare to play like that, because at the risk of being fired and going to prison, how could the necklace you got in exchange be casually hidden anywhere."

 

Frank put Miss Qin's pink handbag on the table again, and then picked up the electric toothbrush Miss Qin had taken out before and said: "The biggest difference between an electric toothbrush and a regular toothbrush is it can be used for a while. If you are sure it's true, I can search for her. So people who often use electric toothbrushes usually buy rechargeable toothbrushes instead of batteries, and the price advantage of electric toothbrushes disappears.”

 

Frank picked up Miss Qin's electric toothbrush, smiled, and said: "But Miss Qin's seems to be an electric toothbrush with batteries that sells for forty or fifty Yuan on the street."

 

“I prefer the one with the drums,” Miss Qin's face turned pale and defeated, and she already had a feeling that all her preparations were in vain.

 

Frank unscrewed the bottom of the electric toothbrush, revealing part of the AAA battery, and was stunned, as for Miss Qin, she showed a smug smile on her face. The few police officers who initially believed Frank's words also began to frown and ponder.

 

This type of electric toothbrush has two batteries placed one after the other, one visible from the outside and the other inside. When replacing the battery, you must first take out the external battery, then take out the internal battery. But even without another battery inside, there's definitely no room for a necklace in that tiny space. Also, if there's a collar inside, the battery must look twisted, but now that battery sits very straight against the electrodes on it.

 

Frank struggled to think about what Miss Qin said earlier, after thinking for a while he continued to unplug the battery from the outside. Sure enough, there was no battery underneath, but there was no necklace either, there was only white toilet paper.

 

Frank glanced at the desk, where there was Miss Qin's eyebrow tweezer, took the eyebrow tweezer and cut the white toilet paper when he wanted to take it out of its place, and a slightly elongated but shiny emerald appeared in the white toilet paper.

 

"It seems that in today's market, it's a lot easier to get rid of a single gemstone than an entire necklace," Frank held the emerald up to his eyes as if to squeeze through the emerald and see Miss Qin: "Or because the necklace is made to order, it's easy to find when it's sold out?"

 

Miss Qin couldn't answer Frank's question anymore at this moment. If Frank had any doubts about her at first, she could have said she suddenly remembered that the necklace was hidden in the electric toothbrush for security reasons, but he pulled out the emerald on his own. Well, although everyone knows she was protecting herself, if she hired a better lawyer, she might not have to go to jail. But it was too late now, because of her little bad luck and greed, she ended up killing herself.

 

The misunderstanding was clearly explained, and the police informed the manager of the jewelry store where Ms. Qin worked to come to the police station to deal with follow-up matters.

 

Frank and the others left after completing the notes.

 

"Thank you very much, my brother."

 

Cheng Ge shook Frank's hand after he walked out and expressed his thanks.

 

"It's okay, it's okay," Frank looked at his watch, and it was almost lunchtime, so he offered: "Is that convenient, let's have a meal together?"

 

"If you want, I will eat and drink without shame," Cheng Ge was very happy when he heard Frank offer to accompany him to eat.

 

They found a small restaurant nearby and sat down. Cheng Ge introduced himself saying his name is Cheng Ge, a foreigner, and he came to Jinling to avoid debt, and he had heard that big cities are good for part-time jobs, so it was okay not to take a chance. A short-term job was requested, so he came running.

 

"So why are you in such a bad state?" Frank looked at Cheng Ge and asked, "If you work here, as a waiter in this restaurant or something, the restaurant owner at least takes care of the food, no matter how much money you have, at least you won't die hunger."

 

“Don't mention it,” Cheng Ge watched a cold dish come his way, greedily took a large bite of it, and then continued: “Before I got to Jinling, I had been playing with big bills and lost more than sixty at a time. The debt is not that small. I tried repaying just by working part-time. After two months of work, I used my ID card and borrowed 5,000 Yuan from the boss to see if I could catch up, the day was red, and I washed again, but who knows, I I would be whitewashed again, which paralyzed me completely."

 

"Here you don't have your ID, and you don't have any money on you. It's hard to get back to shore." Frank looked at Cheng Ge and said: "What are your plans for the future?"

 

"Step and see is really impossible. I will go to Sanherang, where I can play three times a day and see," Cheng Ge said, swallowing part of his meal.

 

"Brother." Frank patted Cheng Ge's shoulder and said sympathetically: "You haven't read the news for a long time, have you? Sanherang has been severely suppressed and cleared by the state. Just like Dongguan, it doesn't exist, there's only one legend left."

 

Cheng Ge was eating when he heard Frank's words, and the chopsticks in his hand fell on the table with a "clap".

 

“Sanherang is gone!”

 

"Yeah," Frank nodded.

 

“Where is the Hisense Hotel?”

 

"Gone."

 

After Frank finished speaking, Cheng Ge looked like he had fallen from the sky and quickly took out his cell phone, connected to the hotel's wireless network, and hid to nervously check the news.

 

"Dear Frank, what is it?" Seeing Cheng Ge hiding, Sao Wen gently slapped Frank and asked: "I don't understand a single word you're talking about."

 

"If you can ever figure it out, you're probably even with him," Frank patted Sao Wen and said.

 

"Speak well," Sao Wen glanced at Cheng Ge, lowered his voice, and said to Frank, "What kind of secret organization are you guys in, please introduce him to me."

 

"Stop playing," Frank said simply.

 

"To be popular is to make money, to whitewash is to lose, and to be paralyzed is to lose everything, completely helpless."

 

"You mean that person is a gamer or the kind of gamer who loses his family and can only run away."

 

"Yeah," Frank nodded.

 

"So what does he mean by losing more than sixty? A thousand or a hundred."

 

"One is 10,000 Yuan, over 60 is over 600,000 Yuan," Frank said: "If you lose 60,000 Yuan, do you still need to run away?"

 

"The more than 600,000 Yuan is unneeded," Sao Wen complained: "The money can still be recovered after the house is sold."

 

"He lost over 600,000 Yuan in one hand. Guess how many hands he has lost so far?"

 

“Pfft,” Sao Wen was completely speechless. On the contrary, Rui Geer curiously asked: "Where Sanherang, and this Hisense hotel is, is it a place where these people can live for free?"

 

"In the past, this place in Sanherang was full of people who had nothing. Their nothing, not only just means they don't have money, but actually, their identity is also gone."

 

"The psychology of the players is; I can make a profit next time, so they'll ignore all the consequences and get every penny they can get, including various loans. Small loans, loan sharking, as long as they can get money so they will go for black credits everyone is already black and can no longer not be black, otherwise, why are these people using cash instead of a card or phone to pay for food?»

 

"In addition, even if their credit information has not been hacked, after entering Sanherang, in order to get money, they will give their ID cards to the middleman inside and ask him to help them get money. At the end of the day, these people are sort of without identities, because if they dare to show up with their original identities. There must be debt collectors waiting for them. "

 

"That's it, and I got that part, is someone opening a hotel for them too?"

 

"You're thinking too much," Frank said: "The meaning of staying at the Hisense Hotel is similar to the meaning of drinking the northwest wind tonight. The phrase is kind of a self-mockery. In fact, it's sleeping on the street, and it doesn't necessarily have a good location."

 

"In this world, only players can do it. Let yourself completely disappear in this society," Frank put his arms around Tang Rui and said: "You can smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, and fight if you can't fight, you sleep with a brother, but if you touch the game, tell me sooner. I'm sorry, brother; this life is over for me."

 

"Finally; your grandmother!" Tang Rui took out his cell phone, opened the Xinyue member software, pointed to the game recharge amount on it, and said to Frank: "I still have money to play? Do you have two kidneys or two livers?"

 

"Krypton Gold* quit gambling, stealing cats, and detox," Frank sighed: "I'm the Krypton Gold thief cat, and it seems gambling and drugs have nothing to do with me in this life."

 

* Krypton gold, originally "class gold", refers to the payment of fees, especially the charging behavior in online games, of "Ye Huo Bian • Si Dao • Fang Yin Branch".
