Chapter 111 Searching for Clues
"I've checked it. The weird thing is, the surveillance footage doesn't show the thieves. Maybe they've avoided the cameras..."
Dixon sighed and said self-deprecatingly, "Now I think these guys might really be professional thieves. But I still don't understand why they targeted my house but didn't steal anything valuable!"
"No matter what, Mr. Ding, you still have to be careful!" Li Jinxing reminded in a low voice.
"Yes, my wife was also scared. We don't plan to live here again recently. Let's go somewhere else first so that she won't have a good sleep at night!" Dixon nodded and said with a wry smile.
"That's fine. Don't keep the items you bought at home. Put them in the bank for safekeeping first!"
Dixon nodded quickly and said with a smile, "That's right. As soon as this happened, I immediately handled the custody procedures. I didn't dare leave such a valuable item at home, lest it bring trouble to myself..."
"Mr. Ding, if you don't mind, I would like to take a look around your villa and maybe find some clues!" Nie Yao suddenly suggested.
Seeing Dixon's momentary surprise, Nie Yao smiled and explained, "Don't worry, I'm not trying to pry into anyone's privacy. I've just been interested in studying detective films since I was a child, so I prefer to observe some details..."
"Of course I don't mind!" Dixon waved his hands quickly and said with a smile,
Ever since yesterday's charity auction, Dixon had witnessed the friendship between Master Li Jiu and the daughter of the Nie family. In addition, Master Li Jiu specially asked her to come today, so he had long guessed the relationship between the two. Now that Nie Yao wanted to help him find clues, he was so happy that he couldn't refuse!
What's more, I bought Mr. Li Jiu's collection yesterday just to show my goodwill to Mr. Li Jiu and pave the way for future business!
"If Miss Nie wants to take a look, please feel free! But my house is still a bit messy, so Miss Nie, please be careful with your steps!" Dixon said this, and specially called a maid to accompany Nie Yao around.
While Nie Yao was asking the maid about the theft in the villa, she was looking around at every corner.
The surveillance cameras in the villa are only placed in the corridors, with fixed blind spots. If a professional thief wants to avoid them, it is not difficult...
"This is our old man Ding's collection room. The priceless collection was placed here last night!" The maid brought Nie Yao to the collection room and explained in a low voice.
Nie Yao carefully inspected the collection room, then looked up at the surveillance camera and asked thoughtfully, "Is this camera always on?"
"Yes, after all, not many people come here usually, and Mr. Ding is worried that others will break in and damage his collection, so he keeps the surveillance cameras on all year round!" The maid nodded and replied.
Nie Yao nodded in understanding. Looking at the somewhat messy collection room, a picture emerged in her mind: a masked man rummaging through boxes and drawers, looking for what he wanted. The Spear of Anubis was very large, but it was just placed there. The man might have just taken a look at it and lost interest!
It seemed that every drawer in the collection room had been opened, even the ones in the corners.
"Besides the drawers in the collection room, have other drawers been opened?" Nie Yao asked casually.
"That's right. Even the drawers in our lady's dressing room were turned upside down, and the dressing table was not spared. It's so hateful!" The maid couldn't help but call him a pervert when she mentioned this incident.
