The manager had a trace of embarrassment on his face and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"It turned out to be the young lady. I was blind and didn't recognize her true face. I'm really sorry. It's all my fault!"

The manager's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and the three of them subconsciously didn't react.

Seeing the three of them standing there in a daze, Qin Susu was quite good-tempered. She took out another business card from her pocket and handed it to them.

"I'm sorry, it's really rude to introduce myself to you three now. This auction house is the asset of our Qin Group."

Jiang Yuechu took the business card in front of him in a daze. When he saw the four big words "Qin Group" written on it, he already knew who Qin Susu standing opposite him was.

After all, it is the Qin Group, a very famous group in their city, and the Qin Susu in front of them is the eldest daughter of the Qin Group.

Looking at what the manager said, Jiang Yuechu roughly understood what was going on.

It seems that this auction house is Qin's asset, so the manager's face turned pale after learning about Qin Susu's identity.

Qin Susu still had a faint smile on her face, and she looked at the auction house manager calmly, but she was surrounded by an invisible pressure and said to the manager: "Since you already know my identity, the guest's things were lost in our auction house. Now I ask you again, can you call the police?"

"This……"

Faced with Qin Susu's persistence, the manager seemed to be overwhelmed by the pressure from Qin Susu, and there was a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"Miss Qin, it's not that I don't want to call the police, it's just that this really makes it difficult for me..."

"Miss Qin, please stop interfering in these matters. Even if I want to seek justice for you and call the police, this is not something I can decide. I hope you will stop making things difficult for me."

As soon as she said this, Jiang Yuechu became more and more certain that the manager in front of her must know something, but she was not sure, so she did not say anything.

In addition, with Qin Susu next to her, Jiang Yuechu suppressed the doubts in her heart and planned to discuss it with them later when she returned to the haunted house.

All in all, Jiang Yuchu suspected that the disappearance of the silk book was definitely not simple, and it was very likely that Qin's people had embezzled it, so the manager looked embarrassed when he looked at Qin Susu.

Of course, since the manager had already said so, they couldn't make things difficult for him and had to temporarily agree to the manager's compensation request.

After all, Jiang Yuchu now has some doubts in her heart. If she keeps insisting on this, it will not be good for both of them. She also plans to temporarily agree to the solution proposed by the auction house manager. It will not be too late to continue the investigation after they let down their vigilance.

However, this incident also gave them new progress, that is to say, there must be something wrong behind this incident.

They received the compensation from the auction house with full of questions, and then said goodbye to Qin Susu.

No one spoke during the whole journey, all of them were immersed in the loss of the silk book and the strange look in the manager's eyes.

After they returned to the haunted house, Jiang Yuechu looked at Ouyang Jun and A Yan in front of him and told them what he had just thought.

"I suspect that all this was caused by Qin Susu's people stealing from the company. Didn't you notice something wrong with the manager's expression?"

As soon as Jiang Yuechu finished speaking, Ah Yan also quickly spoke up: "Yuechu is right. Look at the manager's expression just now. It's obvious that he knows something but doesn't dare to say it. This person must be higher in position than him and can decide his work in the auction house, so he doesn't dare to say it at all."

"That is to say, the person behind this is someone with a higher authority, and must be the manager's immediate superior."

After Ouyang Jun summarized their words, he immediately said with certainty: "No matter what, even if we cannot be sure that the silk book was stolen by someone from the Qin family, we can be sure that this matter is definitely related to someone from the Qin family."

This incident gave them new clues, and after confirming that this incident was related to Qin Susu, they began to investigate Qin Susu secretly.

However, all of this still needs to be handed over to professionals. If they conduct investigations secretly, they might be discovered. So after some thought, they handed it all over to a friend of A Yan, the private detective, whom they trusted, and asked him to investigate everything.

Within two days, some clues about Qin Susu had been found out by private detectives.

The private detective sat next to them and told them everything he had investigated in the past two days, especially Qin Susu's father, who seemed particularly suspicious to him. After the private detective told them about Qin Susu's father, they also felt that Qin Susu's father was the number one suspect.

The private detective told them that Qin Susu's father, Qin Ming, often went out during this period, and the frequency of his going out was very high.

And each time I go out, the time is very long, at least half an hour, and at most one or two hours.

This incident aroused Jiang Yuechu's suspicion. After meeting with a private detective, they decided to secretly follow Qin Ming during this period of time to see if they could find a breakthrough from Qin Ming.

During this period of time, the three of them did nothing and spent all their time keeping an eye on Qin Ming.

When they followed Qin Ming for the first two days, they did not find anything wrong. But on the third day, when they followed Qin Ming, they found that he went to a very small and remote alley.

They were afraid of being discovered by Qin Ming, so they were very cautious when following him. Qin Ming also looked around, afraid that someone was following him. After seeing that no one was around, he entered the alley with confidence. At the end of the alley stood a man in black. The black man said something to Qin Ming after seeing him. Qin Ming nodded at him. The two seemed to be exchanging some secret signals, and then Qin Ming followed the man in black into a house.
