Three months after the case was closed, Qin Feng discovered something unusual while sorting out the loot. The jade rosary that was lost from the lotus-picking boat showed micro-engravings under ultraviolet light - it turned out to be the safe password found in the bank robbery ten years ago.
"This... this is not an ordinary loot." Qin Feng used a magnifying glass to observe the hole of the bead. "There are scratches on the inner wall with a Mohs hardness of 9, which means... it means that diamonds were once placed in it."
Tang Ren came to deliver seafood porridge, and when he saw the evidence photo, he suddenly choked: "I've seen these beads before!" He flipped through the fortune-telling records from half a year ago in the machine, and a female customer was wearing the same rosary on her wrist, "She said she went to Myanmar to gamble!"

The trio disguised themselves as stone merchants and sneaked into the Ruili market. Tang Ren held up a powerful flashlight to shine on the raw stone and deliberately shouted: "This piece is definitely imperial green!" He secretly attached a tracker under the paper Pixiu at the target stall.
Su Chen was scraping stone powder at the next stall, and a microscope showed that it was mixed with platinum and gold particles: "This is not natural ore, it's waste from a refining plant." 놛 was suddenly knocked away by a strong man, and the smell of cyanide left on his collar made 놛's hair stand on end.
That night, a fire broke out at the target stall. After the fire brigade put out the remaining embers, Qin Feng found jade fragments in the finger joints of the charred corpse - exactly the same material as the rosary beads.

The investigation led to an abandoned tin mine on the China-Myanmar border. Tang Ren was entangled by a wild vine and rolled down the hillside, accidentally digging out a half-buried corpse. Su Chen examined the teeth of the deceased and said, "The content of silicate crystals exceeded the standard. He must have been a miner who had been exposed to platinum dust for a long time."
Qin Feng used a drone to scan the mine, and the thermal image showed that there was a mobile heat source deep inside. When they encountered armed resistance during the raid, Tang Ren picked up a pickaxe and fought back. After smashing the opponent's gas mask, he was stunned - it turned out to be the suspect who was "killed" in the drug trafficking case seven days ago.
"Fake... fake death and plastic surgery!" When Qin Feng handcuffed her wrist, he found a listed company logo tattooed on the inside. "This... this is the mark of a cross-border money laundering organization!"

When destroying the underground refinery, Su Chen found a platinum ingot with a mark in the slag of the smelter. Tang Ren used cinnabar to rub the pattern and actually spelled out the Swiss bank safe deposit box number. Qin Feng retrieved the customs records and found that the batch of platinum was declared as "Buddha statue decoration materials".
"It turns out...it turns out that the platinum is plated inside the Buddha statue for transportation!" Qin Feng knocked open the copper Guanyin he had collected, revealing the silver-white core. "This...this way it can avoid X-ray detection and is also convenient for smelting and purification."
During the transnational video conference, the Myanmar police sent a message: the female rosary customer was found dead in a Yangon hotel, and among her belongings was a half-burnt photo of the shareholders' meeting.

Su Chen used developer to process the scorched photos, and the faces that gradually emerged surprised the task force - they included two retired CPPCC members. Tang Ren dug out an old newspaper: "Isn't this Chairman Li who was in charge of the Anti-Drug Foundation?"
Qin Feng led people to search the Li family villa. The switch of the secret room was hidden behind the frame of the Diamond Sutra in the study. Tang Ren was tripped by a Tang Sancai horse, and a micro-roll rolled out of the horse's belly - on it was the account book of a cross-border money laundering organization.
"This... This is an account book for smuggling antiques!" Qin Feng used a projector to magnify the film, "Each... Each item corresponds to a sum of black money!"

The operation was scheduled for Buddha's birthday. While President Li was presiding over a ceremony at the temple, the SWAT team raided the Sutra Library in the backyard. Tang Ren used a crowbar to break open the antique floor tiles, revealing bundles of American currency. The abbot suddenly rang the bronze bell, and the sound waves shattered the glass cabinet - hundreds of artifacts fell to the ground and shattered, revealing the diamonds filled inside.
"Sir, this is called one flower, one world." Chairman Li smiled and raised the remote control, "Just press this button..." Suddenly, the magic thrown by Su Chen pierced his wrist, "How...how did you find the bomb?"
"Smell of sandalwood." Su Chen tore open the abbot's robes, revealing the C4 tied all over his body. "All the incense of the Buddha statues is mixed with the smell of nitrate."

During the escort on the high seas, a storm occurred and Chairman Lee took the opportunity to jump into the sea. Three months later, fishermen recovered the shark carcass embedded with diamonds. Forensic autopsy showed that there was a human finger bone in the shark's stomach - DNA matching confirmed that it was Chairman Lee.
At the celebration party for the closing of the case, Tang Ren drunkenly hugged Qin Feng and said, "This is the law of nature!" He suddenly stared at the waiter and exclaimed, "You...the bracelet you are wearing..." Before he could finish his words, the other party overturned the food tray and ran away - the bracelet was the jade rosary.

At the auction two days later, Qin Feng was the consultant for the appraisal of the pressed items. When the Qianlong seal was unveiled, he suddenly discovered traces of platinum repairs on the seal. Infrared scanning showed that the interior was hollow, hiding unopened Burmese heroin.
"The game... the game is not over yet." He whispered into the earphone, and the figure of Tang Ren disguised as a cleaner flashed outside the window. Su Chen typed on the keyboard in the control room, and the customs database automatically compared the X-ray images of all the items.
(A new storm is reborn from the ashes of the old case)
