At the beginning, he crossed over to become the cannon fodder villain's father

"100."

Lin Aotian's voice sounded.

Hearing this, Zhao Chengfeng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"So it's him in box one."

Zhao Chengfeng said.

He did not expect that Lin Aotian was always next door to him.

Before coming here, when he was fighting with Ye Qingtian, Lin Aotian had been silently watching.

"Okay, the gentleman in box one offered 100 million yuan, is there a higher price?"

Huang Jingtao said.

But before he could continue speaking, he heard a few screams from the venue.

"Fuck, the scroll is gone!"

"Damn it, the scroll suddenly disappeared!"

A few people sitting in the front row immediately noticed something strange.

They suddenly saw that the scroll placed on the tray disappeared under their gaze.

This strange scene immediately shocked several people.

"what?"

Hearing these people's words, Huang Jingtao looked down, only to see that the scroll had disappeared.

In an instant, Huang Jingtao's hair stood on end, and his back felt cold.

The scroll could almost be said to have disappeared under his nose, but he didn't know anything about it, and didn't perceive anything.

"How did the scroll disappear?"

Huang Jingtao couldn't solve this question for the time being. He made a decisive decision and called the security personnel in the auction house directly.

"Block the gate! Don't let anyone out!"

Huang Jingtao shouted.

Now that the mysterious scroll has disappeared, it can be expected that the person who stole the scroll may still be hiding in the auction house.

"What's going on, why is the venue closed?"

Someone who didn't know why asked.

"Everyone, there has been a serious theft, and the scroll has been stolen by someone. That's why I ordered the venue to be closed to prevent the thief from slipping away," Huang Jingtao said.

After he said this, the rest of the people noticed that the tray was empty, and there was no shadow of the scroll.

hiss!
Everyone took a deep breath.

Their eyes were full of shock, and they didn't know who the hell was that could steal the scroll in full view.

"What's going on?" Zhang Lei's voice came from Huang Jingtao's walkie-talkie.

Zhang Lei is the person in charge of the auction, so there was a change in the venue, so he immediately asked.

"Something is wrong, the scroll was stolen." Huang Jingtao said.

"What the hell are you doing! The scroll was stolen right under your nose?" Zhang Lei shouted angrily.

"I'm sorry, this matter was my negligence, I will remedy it immediately." Huang Jingtao said tremblingly.

He can be regarded as Zhang Lei's subordinate, so he is very afraid of him.

"I don't care what method you use, you must get the scroll back!" Zhang Lei roared.

Hearing this, Huang Jingtao shuddered.

Then he said to a team of security personnel who rushed over: "Start from the first row and search all the guests one by one!"

"What are you doing, want to search us?" Someone said dissatisfied.

"We are here to participate in the auction, and we are not criminals. Why do you search your body!" A woman screamed.

"Everyone, don't be impatient!"

Seeing this, Huang Jingtao hurriedly reassured everyone and said, "Don't worry, everyone. How could we search you all? In fact, every lot has a special mark, and you only need to scan it with an instrument to prove your innocence."

Hearing what Huang Jingtao said, everyone gradually calmed down.

If they were only scanned by the equipment, they could still cooperate. After all, they didn't want to bear the name of a theft suspect.

The security guards are holding a device, a simple device similar to a metal detector, which can detect the special markings made by the auction house.

They moved quickly, scanning rows of guests, and quickly checked everyone in the hall.

"The hall has been inspected, and no abnormalities were found." The security captain reported.

Huang Jingtao nodded, but there was a bit of embarrassment on his face.

In fact, what he hopes most is to find the thieves in the hall.

After all, the people in the box are either rich or noble, and they are all people whose status is much higher than his, so he doesn't want to offend.

But now that he couldn't find it in the hall, he could only bite the bullet and provoke the box on the second floor.

"Gentlemen and ladies on the second floor, please cooperate with the inspection." Huang Jingtao said bravely.

"Let them come up, since something went wrong, we should cooperate."

Zhao Chengfeng said calmly.

He is upright and is not afraid of the shadow slanting, anyway, he didn't steal the things, so it doesn't matter.

Hearing this, Huang Jingtao showed joy on his face, and then gestured to the security captain.

"Go!"

"Yes!"

The security captain led a group of people up to the second floor with detectors in hand.

dong dong dong.

The security captain knocked on the door of Box [-].

Lin Aotian opened the door, looked at these people, but didn't say anything.

He had the same thoughts as Zhao Chengfeng, since he hadn't committed theft himself, he wasn't afraid of the so-called inspection.

Drop drop drop!

However, the next moment, they heard the detectors in the hands of each team member ringing collectively.

Lin Aotian was stunned for a moment, not understanding what happened.

"The scroll was found!"

The security captain found a scroll from the corner of the box, which was the one that disappeared from the tray before.

Seeing this, Lin Aotian was dumbfounded.

He didn't know what happened, why this scroll appeared here.

Suddenly, Lin Aotian's eyes turned cold, and he thought of something.

Just now, after he finished bidding, he went to the bathroom once.

"Damn things!"

Lin Aotian didn't understand at this time, this was a well-planned framing.

First the scroll was stolen, and then it was put in his box. The ironclad evidence was so overwhelming that he couldn't argue with it.

At the same moment, in the second box.

Zhao Chengfeng saw the scroll found in Lin Aotian's search, and immediately understood what the task given by the system before: investigating the truth meant.

"I see, it's interesting." Zhao Chengfeng sneered.

He knew Lin Aotian well and knew that the latter would not be a thief.

Although the relationship between the two is bad now, he doesn't just look down on Lin Aotian just like that.

But now there is a question before him, that is, can he help Lin Aotian?
The mission of the system is to investigate the truth. Once it is found out, Lin Aotian may be cleared of the crime of theft.

But if this is the case, it is undoubtedly equivalent to helping Lin Aotian indirectly.

And the two had already torn their skins apart before, Zhao Chengfeng didn't want to be a good person in vain.

Forget it, the system task is still important.

Zhao Chengfeng has made a decision.

In the face of system tasks, personal emotions, gains and losses of interests, these can be temporarily put aside, and wait until the task is completed before worrying about it.

After all, the rewards given by the system missions are very important, and he wouldn't give them up for the sake of a little emotion.
