In the messy courtyard, Tang Ze looked at the big and small holes that were almost impossible to step into, and was speechless.
"Haha, we have no other choice but to resort to this last resort..." Naoki Kamii laughed awkwardly.
"Okay, since you helped me solve this trouble, it saves me a lot of trouble. Tang Ze nodded and walked into the house, trying to pick the intact parts.
As for the trouble that Tang Ze said they had solved, it was naturally the act of "digging three feet underground".
After all, his super sense of smell is not omnipotent. He can't smell anything if he is buried in the ground.
Since they had already checked the yard, they naturally saved the trouble of checking this aspect.
After entering the house, Tang Ze asked Naoki Kamii to stay outside and went into the room himself.
Although this fraud leader lived alone, he pretended to be a successful boss. His house was luxurious enough and he hired a housekeeper to keep it very clean. This made Tang Ze feel relieved.
After all, he was here to help, and it wasn't a big case, so he naturally needed to relax a bit.
If the room was a mess, like the room of a sloppy man who didn't change his socks for three days, Tang Ze felt that he would turn around and leave.
His super sense of smell kicked in quickly, and Tang Ze detected almost all the smells in the room in one go, and then began to eliminate them one by one.
Banknotes naturally have a smell. Of course, Tang Ze felt that in order to facilitate storage, the other party must have used items such as plastic bags to make money.
But alas, there was no smell of banknotes or sealed bags in the bedroom, living room, or even on the floor.
Tang Ze was not surprised by this result. If it was really that easy to find, it would have been found after the carpet search by Naoki Kamii and his team. There would be no need to trouble him at all.
So according to his speculation, the scammer must have hidden the things in a special way.
Thinking of this, Tang Ze used his super sense of smell again, but this time he did not rush to eliminate the two smells other than the smell of banknotes or sealed material bags, but checked them one by one.
The food smell in the kitchen is eliminated first, followed by the bedroom and bathroom.
But when he came to the living room, a faint pungent smell came from his nose.
This is the smell that viscose often emits.
"Um?"
Tang Ze traced the source of the smell and found that the smell of glue came from the cow-shaped porcelain that was almost half a meter high in the living room.
Tang Ze squatted down and looked at the cow's belly, and found a barely visible crack, and the smell of glue came from there.
"Hey, come here, I've found it."
Tang Ze shouted outside, and Naoki Kamii quickly ran over when he heard the noise.
After explaining the situation, Naoki Kamii looked at the cow-shaped porcelain in front of him in astonishment and said, "Senior, are you saying that the money is hidden in the cow's stomach?"
"As expected, this is the only porcelain piece that has signs of gluing."
Tang Ze glanced at the sculptures placed around the living room and said, "As for the remaining sculptures, I'm afraid they are just to make the means of hiding money less conspicuous.
After all, a single sculpture is quite eye-catching, but if your home is filled with sculptures, it will be like a forest of grass and trees."
"Then there's no time to lose. I'll submit the application right away."
After all, searching and destroying other people's things are different. Even if you suspect that there are stolen goods hidden there, you still have to follow the procedures.
Of course, because this fraud case involves the pensions of many elderly people and has a very bad impact, the police still fully support the recovery of the stolen money.
Naoki Kamii just made a phone call and his superiors quickly approved it.
Of course, this is also inevitably due to Tang Ze's "tiger skin".
But anyway, it was approved by the higher-ups.
Without any scruples, Naoki Kamii simply pushed the sculpture down.
With a crisp sound, the porcelain shattered into pieces, revealing a large amount of money packed in a sealed bag in the cow's belly.
"Great, we've finally found the stolen money." Naoki Kamii was not afraid of being cut even though he was wearing gloves. He quickly peeled off the fragments and took out a thick stack of banknotes.
"Okay, I've found the thing for you. I'll go home from get off work right away." Tang Ze took off his gloves and put them in his pocket, then walked away.
"Senior, I'll treat you to lunch!" Naoki Kamii quickly chased after him and said, "Please let me thank you properly!
Just now, when our minister learned on the phone that it was you who helped us, he specifically told me to be sure to thank you."
"Let's solve this case as soon as possible and return the money to the victims." Tang Ze drove away without looking back, waved his hand to avoid the big and small potholes in the yard.
In his peaceful daily life, after completing the task requested for help from his juniors, Tang Zhe felt like he was doing an ordinary job.
The situation in the past where murders occurred frequently was actually an "abnormality".
But most people don’t feel this abnormality and even take it for granted.
Of course, although ordinary work can make Tang Ze feel a peaceful daily life, there is no reward.
But as a small change in daily work, it is still very good.
After finishing work, Tang Ze did not return to the Metropolitan Police Department, but went straight home.
Because it was still early, Tang Ze planned to make the lunch meal more sumptuous.
In order to thank him for saving Lupin, Suzuki Jirokichi bought them a lot of high-quality ingredients and filled up the custom-made refrigerator in his home.
Although food can be eaten for a long time when refrigerated, it will inevitably lose some of its flavor over time.
