Chapter 82 Diary
In the end, Thompson won the auction for Warehouse 94.
Borret took many bidders to the next warehouse.
Thompson and his companions began to pack the warehouse, while Luke stood by and watched.
Thompson came over and asked, "Hey, why are you still here? Not convinced? Want to strike a fight.
comeon, I won't let you go this time.
Kapoor, get our video down, I'm going to teach Andrew how a man should fight. "
"I didn't come to fight, I just wanted to see what you did with the **** you bought for five hundred dollars. Your impulsiveness is really ridiculous."
Thompson lectured, "Boy, we've been in this business longer than you, don't underestimate us."
"Let's wait and see." Luke's purpose was simple, to stay and check if there were any items Anna lost in the warehouse.
Thompson's companion said, "Man, I don't care what grievances you have with Thompson, but this warehouse belongs to us now, you'd better stay away."
Luke stepped back a little and stood at the door of other warehouses.
Thompson's companion complained, "Why do you provoke the police when you have nothing to do?"
Thompson glanced at Luke, not knowing what the other party wanted to do, "Don't worry about him, we'll clean up ours."
There was a 24-hour time limit, and the two of them didn't delay, and began to move out the things in the warehouse, sorting them according to their use and value.
The two worked together to move out the gray box, which was covered with thick dust. Fortunately, they put on masks beforehand.
Thompson also deliberately swept the dust in Luke's direction.
Luke also put on the mask, and took another two steps back.
Thompson rubbed his hands, "OK, let's see what treasures are inside, I can't wait."
Thompson opened the lid of the box and took out an exquisite jewelry box with a small lock hanging on it.
Thompson knocked off the lock and opened the jewelry box.
"Wow... look what we found!" Thompson's voice was full of surprise.
His companion also came over, his voice changed, "Pearl necklace, diamond, and a ruby...
Thompson, we got rich. "
"yeah..."
Thompson shouted excitedly, hugged his companion's head and kissed him hard.
"Boy, did you see it? Look at what we found in the warehouse?" Thompson pointed at Luke excitedly, "These should be yours, but you are inexperienced and didn't insist, so now they belong to me.
I want to teach you a lesson, remember this lesson, you can’t just rely on brute force to solve problems, you need to use your brain. "
Thompson and his companions carried themselves away with joy, and looked at Luke proudly.
He was glad he didn't chase Luke away just now, the audience is always needed in highlight moments.
Luke is their audience now.
Thompson is like a general who has won a battle. He has already figured out how to describe his heroic deeds at the dinner table today, and let his son know how he defeated Luke, a bastard.
Not only the two are happy, but Luke is also very happy.
He has seen the pearl necklace and red gemstone in the file, and he can basically confirm that the items stored in the warehouse are the items that Anna lost.
These are all stolen goods from the "Tellson Manor Disappearance Case", and they belong to the police department from now on.
Luke called Susan's cell phone and asked her to bring the technical team to the scene, and also, to call an ambulance.
Hanging up the phone, Luke said to Thompson and the two, "Hey, can you hear me a few words?"
"I just want to tell you that the most important thing for people is to be happy. It's normal to have ups and downs. Don't have too much expectation for anything. These things are just external things. You don't bring them with you when you are born or you don't take them away when you die. Don't look at them. It shouldn’t be too heavy.” Luke began to build up the hearts of the two, fearing that they would not be able to bear it after learning the truth.
"What nonsense are you talking about, are you mad?" Thompson looked disdainful, he was completely immersed in the joy of obtaining the treasure.
Luke shook his head. That's why he bid for the warehouse. He knew in advance that there might be stolen goods in the warehouse, so he could maintain a normal mind even if he bought it.
But these people don’t know that if the treasure is taken away by the police after obtaining the treasure with full of anticipation, it will definitely be a tragedy...
Knowing that the two of Thompson had found the treasure, more treasure hunters gathered around, but everyone kept a certain distance in a tacit understanding.
A voice sounded in Luke's head, 【Complete an adventure experience, the adventure card has been activated and used. 】
…
Half an hour later, an ambulance sounded.
Susan brought people to arrive.
David looked at Luke with a complicated face, "You borrowed money from me just to bid for the warehouse?"
"Yes."
"You guy can really do things."
Luke spread his hands, "It's not me who did the trouble, it was the two of them who did the trouble. If I can bid for the warehouse, there will be no such shit."
Following Susan arrived, in addition to the on-site survey team, there were also patrolmen, who were responsible for maintaining vigilance and dispersing the treasure hunters.
Seeing this posture, Thompson and his companions were also stunned, "Luke, are you calling these people? What do you want to do?"
Susan said, "Mr. Thompson, we got a tip that the suspect may have hidden the stolen goods in Warehouse 94, and I sent Luke to bid for the right to use the warehouse.
I heard that you prevented him from bidding normally because of personal grievances.
Your behavior has brought great difficulties to our investigation and exposed the actions of the police. Please give me a reasonable explanation? "
"What?" Thompson was dumbfounded, "You said the things in the warehouse were stolen goods?"
"Exactly."
Thompson showed an angry look, "I don't believe it, the things in this warehouse are mine, and no one can take them away. You are a group, and you must be trying to defraud me of my treasures, so I won't be fooled."
Susan seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and took out a few old photos, "You can see for yourself whether these photos are the same as the things in the warehouse."
Thompson picked up the photo and looked carefully, "The gray box, the pearl necklace, the red gemstone..."
Thompson's face became increasingly ugly, "What will happen to these things?"
Susan said, "These are temporary evidence and will be returned to the victim's family later."
Thompson asked loudly, "What about us? We paid for these things!"
The deputy team said, “There are no clear regulations on warehouse auctions, but I have encountered similar things in my police career. At that time, the Los Angeles Police Department compensated the auctioneers with twice the auction price.
Afterwards, you can apply for this compensation to the Los Angeles Police Department. "
Thompson was dissatisfied, "These things are worth at least one hundred thousand dollars, and we will be compensated for five hundred dollars. Are you kidding me?"
Deputy said, "It's better than nothing, isn't it?
In most cases, the purchased stolen goods are directly confiscated, and there is no compensation. You are lucky enough. "
"fuck..." Thompson became hysterical and couldn't accept the result. These treasures should have been his, but now they only got five hundred dollars.
Thompson and his companions were "persuaded" to leave the warehouse, and the police began to take over the scene.
Luke shook his head, "Poor guy, I persuaded them."
Marcus' surprised voice sounded next to him, "Hey buddy, look what I found!
A diary belonging to Tony Smith. "
