Gu Xingyan picked up a storage ring.

She pointed to a string of tiny characters on the inside of the ring: "Each storage ring has a unique number, just like a production batch number."

The guest took a closer look and looked confused: "Can this thing check the date?"

Gu Xingyan shook her head: "It doesn't show the date directly, it has to be decoded."

She had only checked the authenticity of the ring and confirmed that it was a genuine product produced by MixC.

Later, when she was refunding the customer, she found out the customer's shopping time from the shopping receipt.

Now, when we traced back the number of the ring, we found something was wrong.

The customer's eyes widened in disbelief: "I took it from the clerk myself!"

He recalled the scene at that time, and his face suddenly changed: "Could it be Henry? He took it, looked at it twice, and then gave it back to me."

The customer slapped his thigh in annoyance: "He said he would help me see if there were enough 100,000 pills!"

After buying something, they pass it around or help count the quantity. This kind of interaction is very common among friends, and the customer is not sure whether the criminal is his friend.

But apart from Henry, he really couldn't think of a second suspect.

Unless... there is a traitor inside Vientiane City!

When Gu Xingyan heard that the incident happened near the pick-up area, which is inside the MixC, she immediately retrieved the surveillance video.

From the time the delivery man took out the storage ring to the time Henry returned the ring to the customer, the whole process was in full view.

Among the onlookers, a sharp-eyed guy pointed at the screen and shouted, "Right here! They've switched things up!"

In the slow-motion picture, Henry's hand wrapped around the ring, and he changed hands, as if he transferred the ring to his other hand, and then spread it out. The ring that had disappeared briefly reappeared in the picture, but it was not known whether it was the original one.

Many people feel that there are indeed doubts, but they are not yet solid enough.

But the guest had already concluded that this was irrefutable evidence of the substitution, and in a rage, he pushed the crowd away and rushed out of the MixC.

A fertile soil worth one million dimensional coins!

That is the life-saving straw that can save his dimension!

"He made a fool of me! Damn it! I'm going to settle the score with him!"

Gu Xingyan and Yun Qingzhi quickly chased after the guests.

They also need to find out whether this Henry is targeting his friends, their Vientiane City, or if the culprit is someone else.

The guests ran out of the MixC. It was getting darker outside. Many shops had closed, but some still had their lights on, neon lights on their signs flickering, and guests coming in and out.

He ran from the East District to the North District, jogging along the way, passing by one shop after another. Among them, three shops belonging to the same Star Company were almost connected together.

Two of the three shops were next to each other, and the remaining one was separated from the former by a piece of idle land and was lonely.

As long as Star Company seizes that piece of land, it will own four large stores connected together, making it the only large-scale business district in the industrial park.

The person the customer is looking for is in one of the shops selling mineral veins.

The customer rushed into the store, panting, his chest heaving violently, wheezing like a bellows.

The store was as bright as day. Several shop assistants were arranging the shelves. They were startled by the sudden intruder and stopped what they were doing to stare at him blankly.

The customer didn't care about anything else. He saw a man in uniform with a manager nameplate on his chest. The man was standing behind the counter, holding a document in his hand, frowning, and seemed to be thinking about something.

The guest rushed forward, grabbed the man by the collar, and roared, "Henry! You bastard! How dare you switch my Xirang!"

The man staggered as he was dragged by him, and the documents in his hand fell to the ground and scattered all over the floor. He looked up with a look of astonishment, and it was Henry.

Henry's face flushed, the veins on his neck popped out, he struggled hard, trying to get rid of the guest's grip: "What are you doing! Let me go!"

Gu Xingyan and Yun Qingzhi stopped at the door of the store.

What a coincidence! This is the store that is engaging in a price war with them!

In the store, as expected, Henry refused to admit it. He stiffened his neck, spitted, and started arguing with the customers.

"I have no idea what you are talking about! When did I switch your Xirang? Show me the evidence!"

The guest was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed at Henry's nose and yelled, "Stop pretending! Who else could it be except you! You clearly touched my storage ring in Vientiane City that day!"

He suddenly thought of Gu Xingyan, as if he had found a reliable ally. He quickly turned around and shouted towards the door: "Manager Gu! Manager Yun! Come quickly! Help me testify! We have surveillance video! It can prove that he was the one who switched the bottles!"

At this time, the sound of hard flat shoes coming from the shop next door.

A figure rushed in hurriedly, bringing with it a strong smell of medicine.

The man was tall, wearing a well-tailored business suit, with silver-gray curly hair tied behind his head, looking capable and shrewd.

There was no makeup on her face, and her eyes were sharp, like two sharp knives, shooting straight at Gu Xingyan and Yun Qingzhi.

It was Stoebel, the manager of this store.

She rushed to the guest like a lioness protecting her cub, pulled Henry out of the guest's hand, and protected Henry behind her.

Stobel's attention fell on Gu Xingyan and Yun Qingzhi who came in later. He said coldly: "Dear guest, if you have anything to say, come to me. Don't touch my employees."

She did not give the visitor a chance to answer, but asked Henry first: "What's going on?"

Henry was furious: "Manager, this is my friend. I don't know what has gotten into him to accuse me of swapping out his Xirang! I have never done such a thing!"

He was angry and aggrieved, and his voice rose several degrees: "I helped him count the Xirang with good intentions, but he actually bit me back! This is really unreasonable!"

Gu Xingyan was unable to stop the guest from coming to the door to make trouble, so she had to walk forward, put on a decent smile on her face, and spoke slowly:

"Manager Stobbel, this guest is our customer. He said his Xirang was swapped. We are just here to find out what happened."

She looked at Henry: "Mr. Henry, five days ago, did you buy anything in Vientiane City?"

Henry's eyes flickered, and he subconsciously avoided Gu Xingyan's gaze, and answered very quickly: "I bought it, and I went there with the store manager."

Stobel looked frank, stood in front of Henry for the second time, raised his chin, and looked directly at Gu Xingyan:

"Manager Gu, if you have any questions, just ask me directly. Five days ago, I did ask Henry to go to Vientiane City to buy something. Is there any problem?"
