ninety-nine。 A simple and straightforward approach
After saying the situation, Captain Hank, fearing that Gallo would lose face, flattered him again and again:
"Reverend Gallo, you may not know, you are a celebrity in our security team, everyone knows you, careful observation, keen intuition, active thinking, Section Nine guys talk about you every day, not to mention Lieutenant Wintini."
"Hey, hey, my family and Wintini's family are family friends, and they have a very good relationship. She is still my niece."
"before, everyone was wondering who could conquer the flower of the security corps, but now there is no suspense."
Compared with his brown-nosing and relationship-building remarks, Sir Donald is much simpler and straightforward.
"Reverend Gallo, this is about the reputation of our shop. I hope you can help me. Thank you very much afterwards."
Gallo nodded again and again and replied solemnly:
"I see. I will do my best in this matter!"
Then the three went to the underground warehouse where the crystal was stored, right next to the processing room.
Like some unprocessed raw stones, they are naturally not as closely guarded as the finished products, that is, they are stored in the warehouse and are not specially sent to the vault in the city, so it is convenient for the craftsmen to rush to work.
And the security of the city of innocence has always been good, especially on this Avenue of Prosperity, where sheriffs patrol day and night, and Jazz employs professional security personnel, which is safe enough in theory.
But the crystal is still missing,and don't even know time to missing.
Gallo first used the polygraph divine technique, to interrogate the security guard who was on duty last night, and found that it was not a burglary, and they were not lazy last night and stayed at their posts.
Then he looked at the scene and did not find any obvious traces visible to the naked eye, and even the safe where the crystal was placed was intact.
The safe does not look like an ordinary thing, it is very sturdy, and there are many magic lines engraved on the surface and inside.
"so the thief must have used magic, right?"
"Mage is a profession that likes to steal from others."
Gallo came to a preliminary conclusion.
Although Captain Hank and Sir Donald did not know why he was prejudiced against the mage, they explained:
"this safe, which is a magic item in itself, has been blessed with a lot of protective measures to guard against magic theft, for which I spent a lot of money."
Sir Donald introduced the origin of the safe, and then there was a faint look of pain on his face, which seemed to cost a lot of money.
Captain Hank then said:
"Yes, this is a magic safe made by Master Wenna himself. If someone uses magic to steal, the master will find it immediately."
"and the Master is the most powerful and knowledgeable mage in the city, and it is impossible for anyone to steal the crystal from him. That's why it's so troublesome. "
But when Gallo heard this, he was beaming and hurriedly said:
"I see, then I know who the prisoner is!"
"there is only one truth, that Wenna stole the crystal!"
"since the Wenna is so powerful and he made the box, there must be a way for him to take the crystal unnoticed like this?"
The captain and the jazz were stunned and looked embarrassed at the same time.
After the air was quiet for a while, Captain Hank explained reluctantly:
"logically, though, Master Wenna is a suspect. But he is a venerable master, has amazing wealth, and relies on the towering tree of the supplicant school, and even City Lord is respectful to him. "
"such a big shot, even if he is really interested in crystal, would not use such a despicable means as stealing? He has no motive at all. "
He was worried as he spoke.
Is this young priest really reliable? Even Master Wenna dares to doubt it? It doesn't look as smart as the Section Nine guys say.
Is it because Wintini was forced to brag about him in order to praise him?
Sir Donald, who was on the side, also said:
"I also don't think it has anything to do with Master Wenna. He and his disciples and wives are regular customers in the store. We have always had a good relationship with him and get along well with him."
When Gallo heard them say this, he sighed helplessly:
"well, it is because of your inertia of thinking that he dares to act so boldly."
"as a matter of fact, it's also very simple. Wouldn't it be nice to just go to his house and search his house? If the stolen goods are caught together, won't we get to the bottom of it? "
"this."
The captain and the jazz felt speechless. How dare they search the home of such a great man? Dare not even if there is clear evidence, let alone just speculate.
As soon as Gallo looked at their faces, he knew they didn't believe in themselves at all.
Huh! Mortal wisdom.
But he does have a second plan.
He took the crystal that Lily Anlo gave him from his arms and asked:
"is the lost crystal like this?"
Sir Donald opened his eyes wide, took the crystal from Gallo, examined it carefully, and then continued:
"Yes! Right! That's how it works! "
"the color, gloss, transparency, and that comfortable feeling are almost the same, and this one is bigger except for shapes and sizes."
"Reverend Gallo, can you give me this crystal?"
Seeing his eagerness, Gallo scratched his head and looked distressed, and said in a quiet voice:
"although you have opened your mouth, Sir, I should agree, but this crystal was given to me by a lovely believer."
Sir Donald immediately resorted to the simplest and roughest means of persuasion:
"100 gold!"
"Uh. It's not a matter of money. After all, it's a gift from someone else. "
"150 gold!"
"Don't do that, I didn't mean that."
"200!"
"since you are so sincere, I can only bear to give up."
Seeing Gallo nodding, Sir Donald was relieved and immediately asked the butler to fetch a bulging purse and simply handed it to Gallo.
As for the crystal, it was also hurriedly sent to the craftsmen to work overnight.
Although the process is not the same, but only need to spend money to solve the problem, this is the best result.
Anyway, I can sell that lady 500 gold later, and I can't lose money.
"it seems that it was the right choice to ask you to come here today!"
Sir Donald said with satisfaction, and wisely did not ask the exact origin of the crystal, but said that if there were any in the future, he would like to sell it to him at the same price.
