King of home technology

The man's smile made everything around his ears become silent.

Mo Guangxia stood where he was, letting his grasping hands slowly fall down. He looked at the back of the other party for a long time but couldn't regain his senses.

In a slightly awkward posture, he watched Xiao Chengzhuo walk over, greeted Harvey, shook hands with Stefano, and finally hugged Xia Luo gently.

Xia Luo's beautiful and delicate face smiled childishly on his shoulder.Snuggling in his arms is more cuddly than snuggling with her fiancé Stefano.

Xia Luo raised her face and said something to the man, her smile was brighter than the noon sun outside the window.

His eyes fell on Xiao Chengzhuo's face again.Responding to Xia Luo, his smile was three points gentle and seven points pampering, and the corners of his raised lips looked ethereal and charming with the changing light and shadow of the sun.

What are they talking about?

They were obviously in the same space, and the distance between them was not too far away, but not even a sentence of their conversation could penetrate Mo Guangxia's eardrums.

The surrounding air seemed to be pulled away in an instant, because there was no medium for sound transmission, even the sound of my own tinnitus was quiet.

The vacuum caused Mo Guangxia to feel that his own density suddenly increased, and the heaving of his chest became more and more heavy. Every breath seemed to squeeze his heart.

It turned out that the ex-girlfriend's marriage was true.

That woman is Senior Xia Luo, why didn't you tell him in the first place?

Thinking of this, he suddenly wanted to laugh at himself—you never asked.

Xiao Chengzhuo actually has a kind of bottomless pride, but it's all hidden under a calm and steady smile, so it's hard to be noticed.

Between them, this kind of pride is reflected in his affairs, as long as he doesn't ask, he never speaks.

He...should be giving himself a chance to ask about it.

Seeking understanding is actually a manifestation of caring for each other.Friends and lovers are like this.

He can pay due attention to his friends, so he has always been very popular. Why did he become childish and arrogant when he came to Xiao Chengzhuo?

Like an ignorant child who just grabs the candy on the plate and doesn’t give it to him, he doesn’t even really care about him...but because the other party has a "special" attitude towards him... enjoying all kinds of nuances with peace of mind care.

If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to stand it long ago.

Forbearance and tolerance never mean accepting blame blindly, and Xiao Chengzhuo is not an M.

From the moment he pushed himself away, he knew that he finally decided to give up on himself.

Otherwise, why didn't he mention the fact that he ran away on the night of his "wedding", and why didn't he feel overjoyed when he saw him?

The answer is not obvious.

fair enough.The idea of ​​getting married was absurd, and everyone tacitly returned to their respective lives, which he had been wishing for before.

Mo Guangxia raised the corners of his mouth in a self-deprecating manner, but for some reason, a trace of disappointment welled up from the bottom of his heart.

Chatting with Xia Luo, Xiao Chengzhuo didn't hear the voice behind him for a long time.

He glanced over during the conversation, and saw the other party standing motionless in a daze.

The soft and bright sunlight slanted on his head, and the fluffy and soft black hair was rendered like splashed ink.His quiet appearance with lowered eyes is more like a work of art displayed in a window.

After taking off the domineering coat, Mo Guangxia seems to be more suitable to be a quiet and slightly melancholy person...

"Cheng Zhuo, since you're here, why don't you go back after staying for a few more days." Xia Luo's warm voice interrupted his thinking.

"I really want to, but things in the company are in a mess. If you hadn't gotten married this time, I'm afraid I'd be so busy that I wouldn't be able to make time to come to Venice." He smiled sincerely and spread his hands expressed helplessness.

"Tch! It makes me seem important, but you are still so good at talking." Xia Luo raised the corner of her mouth pretending to be dissatisfied, and stretched out a finger to poke his chest, "In this case, I will give you a chance to express Be sincere. Bring it—”

Xiao Chengzhuo blinked, "What?"

"Of course it's a wedding gift for me!" Xia Luo raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction, complaining, "Don't tell me you came all the way to my wedding, and you're going to go back with empty hands and a free wedding drink."

Xiao Chengzhuo was stunned for a moment, then looked at Stefano Nichols standing behind her, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I thought you must be very wealthy if you married Mr. Nichols, how would you value a gift from someone like me?" .”

"He is him, and you are you." Xia Luo said in a resentful tone, "There is really no sincerity at all."

"Okay, okay. Mr. Xiao has come here across the ocean to save face. Don't be too demanding." Stefano reached out and pulled Xia Luo into his arms, and kissed her cheek comfortingly, "Well, tell me what you need, I will Then send someone to buy it."

"That's different." Xia Luo pursed her mouth, "I said you are different. His company's system software has a good market in many special fields. It has obviously made a fortune in the past few years, and it is so difficult. I can't even afford a decent gift... He is obviously not sincere..."

Amidst her thoughts of acting like a baby like a child, Stefano shook his head helplessly, and smiled apologetically at Chengzhuo Xiao.

"I'm sorry, Xia Luo has this kind of childish temper. She likes to joke with familiar people."

"Oh, I know."

Xiao Chengzhuo smiled and stopped talking.

"Mr. Nichols, since you have a guest, should I take this back and deal with it first?" Detective Aldo had been waiting for a long time, and finally caught a gap to gesture to Stefano for the case file in his hand.

Stefano looked up at Mo Guangxia who was not far away, and nodded.

"Inspector, he is my guest after all, you can take him back to assist in the investigation, but please don't embarrass him until you find out the facts."

"Yes, I'll take care of it." Aldo nodded, beckoning to the two detectives behind him, "Go, take him away."

Two detectives stepped forward and grabbed Mo Guangxia's arms, one left and one right.

The feeling of being caught suddenly startled the dazed man, and his body became stiff.

"You...you can't treat me like this!" Although he felt uneasy about losing his freedom, he managed to finish the sentence, "I didn't steal anything, and I don't bother to do such things."

"Is it up to the police to decide? As a suspect, you should cooperate." Aldo frowned a little irritably, then turned and waved to the two detectives, "Take him back!"

"Wait a minute..."

Three words, the voice is very soft.

"Mr. Nichols, as a Chinese, may I know what happened to my compatriots here?" Looking sideways at Stefano, Xiao Chengzhuo's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing.

"It's okay...it's just an accident." Stefano's answer was obviously perfunctory.

"A little accident? A little accident, so that the senior detectives of the Venice Police Department are mobilized?" Xiao Chengzhuo raised his eyes slightly, and his tone was full of probing fun.

"I'm afraid it has nothing to do with Mr. Xiao?" Stefano looked up at him, smiled and gave the answer, "This Mr. Mo is Xia Luo's junior, I kindly entertained him to the manor, but he saw the money Intentionally stole the 'Lucia' I wanted to give to Charlotte."

"Steal?" Xiao Chengzhuo raised his eyebrows, and turned his face to look at the man who had long been too lazy to argue under the control of the detective.

That gaze made Mo Guangxia who was standing in front of the door suddenly feel his heart skip a beat. He felt as if someone had slapped him on the head, and even his ears were burning.

Very well, in just 48 hours he went from being a treasure in the opponent's palm to a suspect in prison.

If there are thunders everywhere in life, just kill him directly.

Losing is not losing, he forced himself to look away calmly and look elsewhere.

"Harvey, I want to ask you something." Looking away, Xiao Chengzhuo suddenly called out to someone who had been acting as a crowd of onlookers with peace of mind.

"Ah?" The man who didn't expect to have something to do with himself was taken aback by the call, "What's the matter? You ask."

"...You asked me to design a brand new monitoring system for the security of this manor and your design studio at the end of last year, right?"

Not knowing what he meant, Harvey looked over suspiciously, but answered honestly, "Ah...that's right."

"Well. I remember that the manor was too large and the automatic monitoring system needed to be activated was too complicated. It took me a lot of time..." He recalled lightly, seemingly casually.

"Dude, you didn't come here to pay me more because you thought you were losing money, right?" In response to his unthinkable topic, several black lines slid down Harvey's forehead, and he pointed at Stefano, "The big boss is here. If you want money, ask he."

Xiao Chengzhuo smiled and raised his eyes to look at Stefano, "Mr. Nichols, in this case of the theft of 'Lucia', it turns out that the sound-activated camera activation and infrared temperature detection system I developed exclusively work well, right?"

"..." Stefano was silent for a moment, before he spoke, "Sorry, that system has not been activated. So there is no way to give you feedback on product opinions."

"Oh? It's useless?" Xiao Chengzhuo raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and looked up and down the group of police detectives standing with Mo Guangxia with admiration, "There is no information provided by the surveillance system to lock down the suspect in such a short time, Venice The efficiency of the police is really high.”

"We have rich experience in handling cases." Hearing the sarcasm implied in his tone, Aldo gritted his teeth and argued, "Surveillance video is only the basis for solving the case, not all of it. Without that, we would have obtained everything through investigation."

"All stolen goods..." While repeating these four words, Xiao Chengzhuo showed a playful smile, "Then my compatriot was caught by you at the scene of the theft?"

"...That's not..." Aldo's face was obviously gloomy, "But all the evidence points to the serious suspicion of Mr. Mo."

"Well... I'm starting to wonder. May I ask your proof?"

Aldo's brows were tangled, "Sorry, I'm afraid..."

"Mr. Nichols, can you satisfy my curiosity? Now that I know what happened, I can explain it to others." Xiao Chengzhuo raised his head and looked at Stefano sincerely. "After all, I am honored to install the security system for you and have been a member of our company for a long time. Propaganda chips. A valuable item like 'Lucia' was stolen in the house where our company's system is installed... Even if it wasn't really stolen, it might affect the reputation of the company if it was spread out. I know a little about what happened. Maybe it’s the same caliber as yours.”

His words are well-founded.It is not too much from the standpoint of personal relationship. Stefano weighed it up and nodded, "Inspector Aldo, please briefly explain the police's evidence to my friend."

Since Stefano Nichols had no objection, Aldo couldn't refuse no matter how reluctant he was.I had to sit down again, briefly introduced the ins and outs of the case to Xiao Chengzhuo, and finally emphasized: "The most important point is that during the time period when we deduced that the gemstone was stolen, Mr. Mo could not provide evidence that he stayed in the room. Proof of sleeping."

"I've said it all. At that time I was chatting with people on MSN." Hearing the most depressing thing again, Mo Guangxia couldn't help but interrupt from the side.

"Mr. Mo, you have emphasized it several times. What about the evidence?" Aldo's questioning made him stop for a moment.

"……"Oh shit.Young Master Mo is full of bullshit in his heart.It was because the computer was borrowed and I didn't want people to spy on my private use traces, so MSN didn't set it to an automatic conversation saving mode.

You can't blame the society at all - who knew that the behavior was originally for self-protection, but the mistake caused him miserably.

"Well... MSN is an online chat software, and conversations with strangers are obviously uncertain... These can't be set in advance. Right, Mr. Inspector?"

"It's true." Aldo gave Xiao Chengzhuo a cold look, "Unfortunately, there is no record of his chats with others in the computer that Mr. Mo has used."

"Of course you can't find it. But..." The handsome man leaning on the sofa raised his eyebrows casually, with a smile in his eyes.He threw out a sentence with great interest, "As long as you find that conversation record, you can prove his innocence, right?"
