Chapter 168 The lost spear

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ding Mu didn't plan to stay here too long. Liangshan was no better than Kunshan. There were no large beasts, let alone monsters. He had to find ways to provide food and clothing for the night here, so he might as well go back overnight.

When we walked to the scenic spot, a man walked towards us with a hurried look. He was a man in his thirties, with a cultivation level of the seventh level of Transformation Realm. He just glanced at Ding Mu and walked over without saying a word.

Ding Mu stared at the other person for a few seconds and shook his head slightly.

Maybe he is too sensitive. It does not mean that everyone he meets is a bad person. Maybe this person has other things to be busy with?

I left the scenic spot, took a taxi to the airport, booked a ticket to Shicheng, and returned overnight. It was already past 11 o'clock in the evening when I got home.

This time Lin Shihui was not waiting for him in the room. She probably had something to do, and Ding Mu was not used to her staying by his side all the time. Even lovers needed private space.

At five o'clock the next morning, Ding Mu was woken up by a phone call. It was Xiao Qing.

"Ding Mu, something happened. The half of the spear we saw at Wei Qizhi's house last time was lost."

Ding Mu remembered the half of the spear. It was not that the half of the spear was valuable, but that it was of great commemorative significance. It was not comparable to ordinary antiques or antiques, so he immediately became energetic.

"What's going on? Tell me in detail."

"I don't know the specifics. It seems that it was lost last night. Wei Qizhi has launched all his connections to find out the truth, but to no avail. It's like the half of the spear disappeared out of thin air. He really has no choice.

, just called me and wanted to ask if you could help him."

Ding Mu frowned, "Have you told him about me?"

"No!" Xiao Qing said hurriedly: "He said that you know a lot about antiques and antiques, so maybe you can help him. If you don't want to go, I can just tell him."

"No, I'll go over and take a look." Ding Mu made an instant decision. If it were an ordinary antique, that would be fine. How could the treasure passed down by Yue Wumu fall into the hands of a small person?

If the other party is only after money, that's it. If he has other thoughts, the spiritual energy contained in Yue Wumu's half of the spear cannot be underestimated.

"Okay, I'll go too. Let's meet in Jincheng."

As a result, Ding Mu had no intention of going back to sleep. He rushed to the high-speed rail station and took the high-speed rail to Jincheng.

At 8:30 in the morning, Ding Mu and Xiao Qing met in Jincheng. Xiao Qing's first words after meeting were not greetings to Ding Mu, but frowning, "Do you smell of perfume?"

"Well, it's Lin Shihui's, she and I are together." Ding Mu said it without hesitation.

Xiao Qing's heart skipped a beat, "So fast? Then I have to congratulate you."

Ding Mu nodded, "Thank you."

With Lin Shihui's name, it can indeed prevent a lot of trouble.

Although Xiao Qing felt awkward, she didn't say much and drove to Wei Qizhi's villa. When they arrived, two people were talking to Wei Qizhi. When Wei Qizhi saw Ding Mu and Xiao Qing, he confessed to those two people.

, and came forward.

"Xiao Qing, Mr. Ding Mu, you are here."

Xiao Qing nodded, "What is the specific situation? Tell us, maybe we can help."

"Come with me." Wei Qizhi led the way to the room next to the study, pointed to a hidden box on the wall and said, "I have always kept the half of the spear in this hidden box. It is camouflaged by the wall outside.

There are calligraphy and paintings covering it, so ordinary people can't find it at all. Even if you find this secret box, you need a key to open it. If you force it open, the police will be called. But when I came over to check at ten o'clock last night, I found that half of the spear was missing.

.”

"It's just that the spear is missing. The camera obscura, walls, calligraphy and paintings are all intact. The lock of the camera obscura shows no signs of being picked, and there are no signs of damage. It's as if the gun disappeared by itself. Surveillance is installed in this villa. I

I specifically retrieved yesterday’s surveillance and found that the surveillance was ineffective from 6 pm yesterday, which means that the time when the thief stole the gun should have been between 6 pm and 10 pm.”

"I have told the police this clue, but the area around my villa is very empty, and the nearest surveillance camera is three kilometers away. There are too many variables in such a large area, and the police can only investigate on a large scale.

, but the hope is slim.”

Xiao Qing hummed and looked at Ding Mu. Ding Mu came to the secret box and observed it carefully, sometimes touching it with his hand, and then retracting his hand after two minutes.

Wei Qizhi asked: "Mr. Ding Mu, how are you doing? Have you gained anything?"

"There is a point, but it needs to be verified." Ding Mu walked out of the room and observed carefully. This action aroused the interest of the two people who had just talked with Wei Qizhi. They came to Wei Qizhi and asked, "Mr. Wei, who is this?"

"Ah, I forgot to introduce you just now. This is Miss Xiao Qing, from the Xiao family in Kyoto, and this is Mr. Ding Mu. Mr. Ding Mu has a deep understanding of antiques and antiques. I specially invited him to help." Wei Qizhi turned to him again.

Xiao Qing and Ding Mu, "This is Du Pei, the most famous and capable private detective in Jincheng. He is also the criminal investigation consultant of Jincheng Police. He is good at tracking. Last year alone, he helped Jincheng Police crack down on thirty-seven cases."

There’s a big case! Next to me is Detective Du’s assistant Zhao Yuebin.”

"It turns out to be Detective Du, thank you!" Xiao Qing greeted, while Ding Mu nodded slightly and continued to observe the signs around him.

Du Pei saw this and asked, "Mr. Ding Mu, have you discovered anything?"

"There are some discoveries, and we still need to continue investigating." Ding Mu said.

Du Pei became interested and followed Ding Mu's gaze, but found nothing. He couldn't help but frown, "Mr. Ding Mu, what are you looking at? Why can't I see anything?"

"There are some things you can't see." Ding Mu's tone was flat, as if he didn't take Du Pei to heart. This tone and attitude made Du Pei dissatisfied. Zhao Yuebin next to him couldn't help it, "Anyone can talk nonsense. After all,

Whether you have real ability or not is another matter."

"Xiao Zhao, don't talk nonsense!" Du Pei scolded.

Zhao Yuebin had been following Du Pei for a long time. Although Du Pei was scolding him, he could still see from Du Pei's expression that Du Pei agreed with his point of view. At this time, he naturally had to stand up and vent his anger on Du Pei.

"Brother Du, Mr. Wei also said just now that Ding Mu has research on antiques and antiques, not on tracking. Tracking, on-site trace investigation, and evidence collection are all professional fields, and they are not just a random one.

People can do it, otherwise, why would the police invite us here?"

"Mr. Ding Mu, appreciating antiques requires a pair of sharp eyes, but tracking, investigating and collecting evidence requires not only a pair of sharp eyes, but also meticulous observation and a lot of experience accumulation. I want you to draw conclusions with a pair of naked eyes.

, it’s really such a child’s play.”

Xiao Qing frowned, showing displeasure, "I believe Mr. Ding Mu, he won't do anything wrong."

Wei Qizhi was caught in the middle. Rationally speaking, he preferred the police and Du Pei. After all, they were professionals. But it was he who invited Ding Mu. To refute Ding Mu's face at this time would be tantamount to offending the Xiao family.

, in desperation, he could only smooth things over.

"Detective Du, why don't we first listen to Mr. Ding Mu tell us what he discovered, and then we can draw conclusions."

Du Pei nodded, "Okay, Mr. Ding Mu, you..."

Before he finished speaking, Ding Mu suddenly rushed out of the hall, ignoring Du Pei at all. Zhao Yuebin let out a soft snort, "I knew I couldn't do it, so I ran out first. I know how to do it."
