On May 1, 2220, Eternal Love was exhibited for the first time at the French National Museum.

When the museum was closed that night, security personnel made a routine inspection of all exhibits and found that Eternal Love had been stolen.

The person in charge of the museum immediately called the police and blocked the scene.

Realizing the complexity of the case, the local investigation bureau asked the headquarters for help. The investigation team leader sent by the headquarters was Hodgson, who was in the limelight at the time.

After Hodgson arrived at the museum, he surveyed the scene immediately and found that there was something unusual about this case.

The museum closed at 5 pm that day, and visitors were prohibited from entering. By 6 pm, there were only cleaning staff and some security personnel on duty in the venue, a total of about 30 people.

At 9:00 p.m., when the cleaning work was completed and all the staff were about to exit, a security guard accidentally discovered that the eternal love in the showcase had disappeared.

What surprised Hodgson the most was that, according to the testimony of those present, about ten minutes ago, that is, at 8:50, a cleaning staff had just wiped the glass of the showcase, and the ring was still lying there at that time.

In other words, if someone stole the ring, that's what happened in these ten minutes.

Originally, this case was actually very simple, because this eternal love is a separate exhibition hall, and cameras are installed in all four upper corners of the exhibition hall. It can be said that the display cabinet where the ring is located is monitored 360 degrees without dead ends.

Not to mention taking the ring away by one person, even if a mosquito flies in, it cannot escape the eyes of these surveillance cameras.

But when Hodgson checked the surveillance video, he discovered something incredible.

At 8:55, when the cleaning staff left the exhibition hall, within ten seconds, the four monitoring probes were separated from their original angles by a mysterious force, and all of them were turned upwards, aiming at the ceiling.

The reason why it is called a mysterious force is because there was no one in the exhibition hall at that time!

Neither the surveillance cameras inside nor in the corridor outside saw anyone going out or coming in.

When Hodgson saw this scene, he felt chills down his spine, and said in a voice that no one could hear: "What a hell."

And this case is not only weird, because eternal love is very precious, and it uses the most advanced anti-theft technology at that time.

The showcase is made of special bulletproof glass, which is closely connected with the booth below without any gaps. If it is forcibly opened or broken through without permission, the alarm device will be triggered.

Even the brocade box under the ring uses pressure-sensitive technology, and if someone removes the ring from it, it will also trigger an alarm.

With this double insurance, theft is almost impossible, but it does happen.

Hodgson inspected the scene carefully and found that the display cabinet outside was intact without any signs of being broken, and a stone was actually placed in the brocade box that originally contained the ring.

Someone passed through the thick layer of glass, and came here to do a trick.

Hodgson had never seen Liu Qian's magic performance in the Spring Festival Gala, otherwise he might have traveled all the way to country C to ask him how he did it. After all, there are always some people who use magic under the guise of magic.

Hodgson wanted to try to see if he could do the same thing, but as long as the display case was subjected to a slight vibration, the alarm would be triggered, and there was no way to reach in, let alone replace the ring inside with a stone.

Later, he set his target on the 30 staff members in the venue. After all, it took only ten minutes from the time the ring was stolen to being discovered. At 9:05, the person in charge who received the report closed the gate of the museum. .

No matter what method the thief uses to steal the ring, Hodgson believes that he must not be able to ship the ring out in such a short period of time.

The ring must still be in the museum,

Even on the thief.

He restrained all thirty staff members, searched them, and even monitored their excrement. He spent another three days searching the entire museum, but found nothing.

The ring seemed to have evaporated from the world.

Whether it is the modus operandi or the whereabouts of the stolen goods, there is no clue. Hodgson has been handling the case for many years and has never encountered such a difficult situation. The investigation was temporarily deadlocked.

But at this time, the case suddenly took a turn for the better.

The colleague in charge of researching the surveillance video used technical means to analyze the ten-minute surveillance video of the stolen ring frame by frame.

They were surprised to find that the monitoring probe was turned by hand.

The evidence is that at the moment the camera rotates, two finger-like things flash across the screen.

The finger flashed very fast, leaving an afterimage in the video that the naked eye could not see.

But fortunately, the image analysis technology at that time was quite mature. After two days, the colleagues in the technical department successfully restored the appearance of the two fingers.

The complexion is white, slender and slender, like a woman's hand.

This is quite a breakthrough.

Hodgson immediately became excited.

He reinterrogated all the female suspects again, but the result was very helpless. No one's hand features matched those in the picture, and the other party did not leave any fingerprints.

Just when Hodgson wanted to expand the scope of the search, he suddenly discovered a place that he hadn't noticed before.

The floor height of the exhibition room is five meters high. If a person wants to distort those surveillance cameras without tools, he must be able to fly.

Hodgson gave himself a mouthful at the time, because the whole world was paying attention to this case, and he was under too much pressure to ignore these details.

It's not just about height.

That hand could bend all four probes in ten seconds. Unless the opponent used to run, otherwise, he would not be able to complete the distance by walking in such a short time.

Obviously found a clue, but brought more questions to Hodgson.

Hodgson couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, and almost turned gray with worry.

One night, he even had a nightmare in which the woman's hand came out of the void and strangled him around the neck.

And the next day, his assistant also said to him mysteriously, "Inspector, I don't think the one who stole the ring is a human..."

Hodgson decisively stopped his nonsense.

After solving cases for so many years, Hodgson has also seen many bizarre cases, all of which were finally confirmed to be committed by people.

It can be said that he is a very firm materialist.

But this time the incident was indeed very different from the past.

Hodgson couldn't lie to himself.

Holmes once said.

After eliminating all impossible situations, what remains, no matter how incredible, must be the truth.

At this time, the higher-ups had already started urging him.

So he made a report to the Bureau of Investigation.

He only wrote one sentence in the report.

Ghosts commit crimes.

Oddington, Director of the Bureau of Investigation, slammed the report on his face: "You want me to use this to explain to the people of the whole country?"

Hodgson lowered his head: "My lord, this is the conclusion I came to after a month of investigation. Except for ghosts, I can't think of anyone who can do such a thing. If you don't believe my conclusion, you can let other colleagues take over this case .”

Hodgson "gives up on himself", and Director Oddington can't do anything about him, who makes him the best detective in the whole of France.

Director Oddington did send other people to investigate, but they either failed to achieve anything, or, like Hodgson, concluded that manpower could not be done.

As a last resort, Oddington could only order his subordinates to compile a "reasonable" dossier. Even if he couldn't find the ring, he couldn't be ridiculed by the people of the whole country and even the world.

Although it was ridiculed in the end.

This is the whole story of the Theft of Eternal Love.

After Hodgson finished speaking, he lit a cigarette.

Although it has been three years, he can still remember every detail, which is enough to see how much this case has affected him.

Zhang Jue kept pinching his chin, obviously thinking.

It was the woman's hand again.

I really found the right place this time.

Is it just really ghosts?

A ghost, will come to steal the ring? Will push him towards Shirley?

Zhang Jue couldn't figure it out.

But in this world of the Bureau of Abnormal Biology, probably anything can happen.

"Inspector Hodgson, have you investigated the tourists who visited during the day?" Zhang Jue asked.

Hodgson shook his head: "At that time, the museum was open to the public for a full eight hours. More than 2,000 people visited 'Eternal Love', and a large part of them were tourists from abroad. It was impossible to investigate them one by one. , The situation at the time did not allow me to do that at all. But I have watched the surveillance video many times, and no one came within two meters of that ring."

Zhang Jue nodded.

Hodgson is just a detective, and his abilities and powers are very limited. This matter is very sensitive, and it may even become a diplomatic incident if he is not careful.

This case was even more tortuous and bizarre than Zhang Jue's experience, so it's no wonder that Hodgson and no one else were willing to bring it up.

Hodgson only had so many clues, Zhang Jue planned to leave after listening.

Before he had time to speak, he saw another police car parked on the side of the road, and a young detective got off from it, also rushing towards the farm.

Zhang Jue thought he was sent by Director Oddington to find him, but when the detective came to him, he was stunned when he saw him and Jack, and then asked Hodgson, "Teacher, who are they?"

"Eh..." Hodgson didn't know how to introduce Zhang Jue's identity.

Zhang Jue reached out his hand first: "Mark Zhang, an amateur writer, come and inquire with Inspector Hodgson about the theft of Eternal Love three years ago, and plan to adapt it into a novel."

The young detective looked him up and down: "The case is not closed yet, so it's not appropriate to adapt it into a novel now."

Hodgson frowned and said, "Galair, don't be unreasonable. This is a writer specially hired by the British royal family. He has been authorized to know the details of the case - why did you come to me?"

Galilee glanced at Zhang Jue, and then saw Agent Jack beside him. Although they belonged to different departments, they knew each other and knew that he was Director Oddington's confidant.

Galaire pondered for a moment, sighed, and said, "Teacher, I came today because of that case."

...

The Eternal Love that disappeared for three years was toured, and the National Museum of France is on display again.

But how it came back, the Bureau of Investigation did not disclose to the outside world.

Because it involves another case.

I don't know if it's fate, but this case was in charge of Hodgson's student, Galilee, who was a teacher at the police academy.

Simply put, the ring was found at the scene of a murder.

A family of three, two dead and one injured.

The death conditions of the two deceased were very strange, and the expressions on their faces were terrified, as if they had seen something terrible before they died.

When neighbors came to visit, they smelled blood in the house and reported it.

Investigators came after hearing the news, broke in and found the only survivor in the closet—the eighteen-year-old daughter of the two deceased.

Galilee surveyed the scene in the usual way of homicide.

He found that the house was very clean, without any signs of being invaded.

Even the doors and windows were locked.

It seems that they deliberately don't want people to run out.

The whole house is like a huge secret room.

Except for the reporter, the surveillance outside the door did not capture any other visitors.

I don't know how the murderer got in, let alone how he left.

Galilee led his team to investigate for a week, with limited progress.

Then he thought of the theft his teacher had investigated three years earlier, when it was said to be haunted by ghosts.

Galile naturally didn't believe it, so he rushed over and wanted to ask the teacher about the details of the case.

Because judging from the modus operandi of this impossible crime, the thief and the murderer are very likely to be the same person.

After listening to Galaire's introduction, Hodgson sighed.

If it was him a few years ago, he would definitely join Galilee's team and check it out.

But now that he was limping, and most importantly, he had lost that spirit, even if it was possible to find new clues, he didn't want to move.

Seeing his teacher like this, Galilee sighed, but he couldn't say much. He said goodbye and was about to leave, but was stopped by that writer Mark Zhang.

"Detective Galilee, I will investigate this case with you, maybe we can make some progress." He said.

Galilee didn't have a good impression of him at first, so he couldn't help but glanced at him, the meaning was obvious—just by you?

The writer seemed to see the disdain in his eyes and laughed.

"Okay, stop pretending, I have a showdown, I am not a writer, let alone a prince, I am the president of the British County Royal Reasoning Association, and I was invited by the head of state to help you catch the murderer, how about it, Are you scared?"

...

Thanks for the reward from the big guys on the other side.

There are so many people on National Day, everyone should pay attention to safety when going home. Ask for tickets by the way.
