Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time
Chapter 69 Family Crest
Xu Cheng frowned slightly. He had no evidence to prove that the paintings in their hands had been swapped.
At this time, Gu Jinhe waved towards Shuhua, indicating that she should hand the cell phone with which she had just recorded to Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng took Shuhua's phone and opened the two videos in the album. After watching them, his brows relaxed.
Noticing his expression, the police officer realized that there was evidence in the video on the phone.
Xu Cheng edited the two video clips and merged them together into a photo, which he put in front of the police.
The policeman looked at the photos on his phone and couldn't tell the difference between the two identical paintings.
Just as he was about to look away, he saw a green fluorescent powder mark in the lower right corner of the painting in the first photo, but there was no such mark in the lower right corner of the painting in the second photo.
Xu Cheng explained: "The first photo was taken when the painting was just hung on the wall, and the second photo was taken when we came to pick up the painting after the auction."
The police first felt a little suspicious. Seeing how well-prepared it seemed, it seemed like a special trap. But to set up a trap with a painting worth over 100 million yuan was something they had never heard of or seen before.
Gu Jinhe bent his lips slightly. The bait was not big, so how could the fish take the bait?
The policeman said to Xu Cheng: "Can you send me a copy of this photo?"
Xu Cheng nodded slightly: "Sure, my Bluetooth is on."
The police turned on the Bluetooth on his mobile phone and received the photos sent by Xu Cheng after a while.
The police showed this photo to Li Penglai. Li Penglai frowned after reading it. Looking at the fluorescent powder mark in the lower right corner of the painting, he felt that something was wrong. This painting was worth over 100 million yuan. Wouldn't it have damaged the value of the painting by randomly sprinkling fluorescent powder on it?
Li Penglai couldn't understand why Gu Jinhe did this. Was it just to find something to hold against him?
Such a valuable bait was damaged just like that. Li Penglai always felt that there was something wrong here, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.
Because the painting was so valuable, the police blocked the Penglai art exhibition.
Seeing that the police could not find anything for a while, Gu Jinhe said to Li Penglai who was standing not far away: "I added the fluorescent powder on purpose. You can take a closer look at what the mark is."
Hearing this, Li Penglai had a bad feeling for some reason. He enlarged the photo, stared at the circular mark for a long time, and finally confirmed that it was a word.
Gu?
The first thing that came to Li Penglai's mind was the Gu family, one of the four great families.
Li Penglai looked at Gu Jinhe with some doubt. Could she be a member of the Gu family?
But why would the people from the Gu family set a trap for him?
The Penglai Art Exhibition and the Gu family have not had any contact for so many years. Although he doesn't know much about the Gu family, he knows that such a large family with a hundred years of heritage will not make things difficult for him, a small art exhibition owner, for no reason.
Gu Jinhe met Li Penglai's gaze and said with a slight curve of his lips: "I just wanted to try out the effect of the fluorescent powder, so I used the family emblem to stamp it. But don't worry, with this stamp, the value of this painting will only increase, not decrease, and it is very collectible."
The Gu family's emblem?
It is certainly worth money, and it is a symbol of power and status.
But on another level, the presence of this seal made the painting a hot potato.
He is a prominent family with extensive network of contacts. Who would dare to offend him?
If this painting remains in Li Penglai's hands, it will be a waste because no one dares to buy it. If someone buys it, it means they don't take the Gu family seriously.
Family emblems and imprints generally won't be lost unless they are lost. If such items are lost, the family will mark and archive them, and keep an eye out for them while informing the outside world.
So if someone gets this thing and knows who it belongs to but doesn't return it, he will have to bear the consequences if others find out.
Li Penglai held the phone tightly and trembled slightly. Is it worth it to offend the Gu family because of a painting?
But if he admitted that he had indeed swapped the painting, and if that got out, it would cause a series of consequences, all of which he would have to bear.
On one side is the Gu family, and on the other side are the complicated interpersonal relationships. Li Penglai is unable to make a decision for a while.
Gu Jinhe glanced at the police and special police around him and saw that they were questioning the staff here. He turned to Xu Cheng and whispered, "Go and smash the wall over there."
The wall that Gu Jinhe said he wanted to tear down was the one where her paintings were hung.
Xu Cheng's execution ability was very decisive. He immediately led a few people to the wall over there.
Li Penglai had been keeping an eye on Gu Jinhe out of the corner of his eye. When he realized what she was going to do, his expression immediately changed and he spoke anxiously, "Quick, stop them!" The few people standing beside him obeyed his orders and quickly stepped forward to block them.
Gu Jinhe's bodyguards knocked these people to the ground with just a few moves.
Soon they came to the wall, and because they had no suitable tools at hand, they kicked it. They found that the back of the wall was made of wood, and the place where the painting was hung was a hinge that could be turned.
The workmanship is fine and the stitching is tight. If someone doesn't deliberately destroy it, no one will discover the trick behind this wall.
Li Penglai ran over with bloodshot eyes to try to stop them, his fat body making 'thump thump' sounds on the floor as he ran.
But it was obvious to everyone that there was something wrong with the wall, and even if they wanted to stop it, they couldn't.
After a few kicks, a big hole appeared in the wall. Behind it was a secret door. No one knew where it led to except Li Penglai.
The entrance to the cave appeared right before their eyes, and the police quickly went in to search. After a while, they caught a short old man who was holding a scroll in his hands and looked panic-stricken and frightened.
The police brought the man out, unfolded the painting in his hand, and discovered that this painting was the original one that Gu Jinhe had brought before.
When Li Penglai saw the old man being searched out, he knew something was wrong. There were witnesses and evidence, and he was caught red-handed on the spot.
But what puzzled Li Penglai was how Gu Jinhe knew that there was something wrong with the wall?
He and the old man were the only ones who knew about this wall. He was cautious and did not dare to tell anyone else about it.
The reason why the Penglai Art Exhibition has been able to remain peaceful for so many years is that he is usually cautious and careful and never leaves any handles.
I didn't expect to fall into the hands of a yellow-haired girl today? !
Li Penglai's expression gradually became gloomy. He glanced at Gu Jinhe with an unclear expression, then restrained his expression and said to the police: "I didn't know that the painting was swapped, and I don't know this old man."
The old man had remained silent since he was arrested. After careful questioning, the police discovered that he was deaf-mute and could not hear what they were saying at all.
Seeing that Li Penglai still refused to admit it at this time, Gu Jinhe did not take it to heart. He just felt that this old fat fox had a lot of things to do.
I really can’t shed tears until I see the coffin!
