Chapter 282 The Disappearing Stamp Album

"Police officer!" Li Mengqi, with a haggard face, said dejectedly, "I'm like this, why would you joke with you? Even if I can't apply for a tainted witness, I have no reason to say it! I checked it three times, and the most valuable Qing Dynasty copybook and a string of pearl necklaces from the Republic of China period were all lost, but a stamp album was missing!"

Zhao Yu and Miao Ying looked at each other, and getting such an answer naturally made them unexpectedly.

"Piece Collection Album?" Zhao Yu didn't understand the philatelic at all, so he hurriedly told the agent behind him, asking them to find Liang Huan quickly.

"It's a philatelic, yes!" Li Mengqi pointed to her list and said, "I bought it myself, absolutely nothing wrong! Police officer, I admit that most of it is stolen goods, but this philatelic is different! This is what I bought through legal means!"

"Hmph!" Zhao Yu sat in front of Li Mengqi with a chair, "What is legal in the black village? No matter how many moves you have turned, the stolen goods are always stolen goods! You have been working for so many years, won't you not understand this principle, right?"

"You?" Li Mengqi took a serious look. In her eyes, the police would not know so many industry secrets of the black village.

"Tell me quickly!" Miao Ying said, "If you can tell us the truth earlier, we can catch the robbers sooner! Catching the robbers will definitely be good for you!"

Miao Ying's words were similar to Zhao Yu, and Li Mengqi was very surprised. She calmed down and then she explained the whole story of the philatelic.

It turned out that the philatelic was from an amateur collector. The collector put the precious stamps he had collected carefully in the philatelic album. Each plastic sealed bag was specially made according to the size of each stamp, which was very detailed.

Unfortunately, after the collector's death, the collector's son became obsessed with gambling habits. In order to repay the huge gambling debt, he actually took out the philatelic album to pay off the debt.

The debt collector was unable to understand the value of this philatelic, so he called Li Mengqi's team over.

Li Mengqi said that according to the expert's valuation, the market price of the stamp album was around 1 million at that time. However, there were several sets of stamps that had particularly appreciation potential. If you hoard it, it would definitely double in the future.

Therefore, Li Mengqi took advantage of the situation and finally acquired the philatelic for 500,000 yuan, and has since been stored in the safe of Qinshan Bank.

Now five years have passed, and this philatelic has indeed increased several times. Now it can be worth three to four million!

Three or four million!?

Zhao Yu looked at Miao Ying again, and Miao Ying also raised her eyebrows. Although three or four million is already a lot, in their opinion, it is really impossible to rob the bank for this mere three or four million!

What's going on?

Five bank robbers risked their lives to rob a stamp album? Is it Li Mengqi who made a mistake, or is there any other reason?

"You..." Miao Ying thought for a while and asked Li Mengqi, "Do you still have that stamp album or picture of the stamps inside?"

"Yes! This must be there!" Li Mengqi said, "I know where it is! But, comrade police, I still hope to be a tainted witness. I am willing to cooperate with the police's actions and find the criminal!"

"This is no problem!" Miao Ying agreed, "Speak quickly! Without further ado, from now on, your performance has been recorded by us, and we will help you get points at the time of trial!"

"Yes, yes!" Li Mengqi thanked repeatedly, and then said the detailed location of the hidden picture without any obscureness.

Afterwards, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying interrogated Li Mengqi on the spot, asking them if they had any other safes that stored stolen goods, and whether they knew there were corpses hidden in the safe.

As a result, Li Mengqi claimed that she had no other cabinets. Moreover, she had never heard of any safe vacuum corpses.

In order not to miss any clues, Miao Ying also showed Li Mengqi the photos of Gong Xiuzhen and other victims, who also did not know these people.

As a result, Zhao Yu felt more and more that things seemed to have returned to the starting point, and the bank robbery case and the safe corpse case seemed to be unrelated.

The gangster accidentally opened the cabinet where the body was storing while prying the safe.

However, there is no definite evidence, everything is empty talk. The criminals who robbed the safe must be found to confirm the matter.

But when it comes to catching the criminals, things have become more and more bizarre.

Are the gangsters really coming for stamps? They are all philatelic enthusiasts? They dare to even rob stamps for the sake of stamps. This... aren't these a bunch of lunatics?

The Qing Dynasty copybook mentioned by Li Mengqi is at least 8 million yuan. If this painting is taken away, it seems that it would be a good idea to explain it? Go back and sell the painting, what stamps can't be bought?

What's going on?

With a strong curiosity, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying returned to the police station, waiting to find the result of the stamp picture. Although Li Mengqi's black village was not under the jurisdiction of Rong Yang, because the matter involved a bank robbery, the superior ordered that the case was also handled by the Rong Yang Branch.

This undoubtedly increased the workload of Rongyang Branch. Fortunately, this crime of purchasing stolen goods is an economic crime. Li Mengqi and others were temporarily handed over to the Economic Investigation Team for investigation, which also slightly reduced the pressure on the serious crime team.

However, all the agents of the Crime Team knew that when the Economic Investigation Team found out whether the major theft or robbery gang came, the case would sooner or later turn back to their hands.

Time flies quickly, and it is already eight o'clock in the evening. The photos of property hidden on Li Mengqi's computer have been successfully retrieved by the agents.

In order to better understand the intentions of the criminals, Liang Huan also invited two experts from the Postal Association to help in his private identity.

The stamp picture was enlarged onto a high-definition electronic screen, and Liang Huan and two experts conducted detailed identification of the missing stamp album.

Although Zhao Yu didn't know how to collect philatelics, he was quite interested in it and stayed on site to observe it.

"This is Cao Guojiu!" When he opened the first page of the stamp album, an expert recognized it at a glance, pointed to one of the stamps and said, "When the TV series "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" was played in 1985, the Postal Bureau once issued a version of the Eight Immortals stamps. However, when it was released, due to the slow design problem, it was not issued in succession, but was issued one by one, which lasted for several years.

"Since it is not a whole set of releases, few people in the public can get it together! This is the first issue of Cao Guojiu!"

"I remember too!" Another old expert said with a smile, "I had collected it back then! The fairy girl He gave the least. Only by buying the fairy girl can you collect all the Eight Immortals!"

"Then... how much is this one worth?" Liang Huan asked thoughtfully.

"It's 50,000 or 60,000 yuan! It's good in appearance and well preserved!" the old expert smiled, "But if you can get all the Eight Immortals together, it would be amazing! The starting price will be up 200 million yuan!"

oh?

Hearing this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but think, was it that the criminals really had the purpose of robbing this philatelic?

Just like Cao Guojiu, the criminals have another seven immortals. If they grab Cao Guojiu, they can get the Eight Immortals to gather together?

But if it's just 2 million, it's still a little less?

While speaking, the experts turned the stamp album to the second page. What appeared on this page was a set of colorful stamps, including 4 stamps in a group, with a total of 10 sets. Each stamp was painted with a villain doing gymnastics.

This set of stamps looks very old and should be quite old.

"Wow! Awesome!" the old expert sighed, "It's all in all, this is a 52-year-old radio gymnastics!"

"Ahem!" Liang Huan shook his head and said, "What kind of amazing baby am I going to be! This set of radio gymnastics has to be sold on Taobao, and it costs 10,000 yuan per set! The country issued a total of 1.25 million sets back then, which is too inferior!"

"Yeah, Xiao Liangzi is amazing?" Another expert praised, "I know a lot! Haha..."

Unexpectedly, before the expert finished laughing, the old expert's face suddenly solidified! He seemed to be shocked by something in the stamp. After a few seconds, he raised his hand tremblingly, pointed to the screen and said:
Chapter completed!
