Chapter 174

"The teacher" suddenly interjected, "in fact, it's very simple. What if they came up from the lake in the east?"

Then Ivan nodded and continued to say in broken Chinese, "you're right. It's really a possibility. The lake is very deep. We didn't find any boats. If they were swimming and wading, there were as many as 89 of them, not to mention there were so many

Sentinels by the lake, which could be seen by the searchlight. The sound of water splashing was enough to attract their attention Second, even if they came in from the lake, why didn't they walk from the lake when they left? "

"It's easy to understand. The people who escape on the water must be much slower. There are so many sentinels. They escape from the water. Those sentinels just stand there and practice shooting, and they can't escape." The teacher said.

"Where else can they escape without escaping from the lake?" Ivan asked.

"Ask your sentry about that." Chen Ke said, "your sentries have exchanged fire with them. They know where they are going to escape from."

Ivan nodded and said, "yes, I got the news from our sentry that they were fighting with the gang and chasing them to the west wall. They escaped from the wall. But the problem is that we went to investigate afterwards, but we didn't find any footprints of other people outside the west wall. We only saw the footprints of our sentry."

Chen Ke and other people in the room were surprised and looked at each other.

"No footprints?" Chen Ke asked, "how did they get out?"

"Are footprints destroyed by the footprints of our sentinels, or covered by snow?" "Teacher" said, "after all, when you came, it was a long time since they fled, and it was snowing at that time."

Ivan shook his head and said, "as far as footprints are concerned, destruction and failure are totally different things. Please believe our detective skills."

"What's your detective's conclusion?" Chen Ke said, "we can't find their way in or out. What does that mean?"

When Chen Ke finishes, Linda translates Chen Ke's words to Peter. Peter smiles and says something.

"Teacher" sees Peter's words and is stunned. Chen Ke finds that his whole face has changed. He doesn't know what Peter said. Chen Ke asks, "teacher, what did Mr. Peter say?"

"Teacher" then responded and wanted to translate for Chen Ke, so he said in a hurry, "Mr. Peter said that through this, it is not difficult to judge that no one came in or went out on the day of the theft."

Peter said it calmly, and the translation of "teacher" was very calm, but this sentence made the scene even more surprised. Even Linda opened her mouth wide, and it seemed that she could not believe it.

Chen Ke said, "Mr. Peter means that I suspect what I said is a lie? Are we lying deliberately? No one has ever come into our room or stolen our ancient sword? "

After listening to Linda's translation, Peter said a lot in a hurry. Chen Ke couldn't understand what he was saying, so he was very worried.

After listening, the teacher translated it to Chen Ke, "Mr. Peter said that he didn't believe us. First, I was injured. Second, his servant did see the intruder climbing down the window."

Chen laughably said, "then I'm a little confused. You said that according to your investigation, no one came into the castle. Now you say that we believe that there are people who steal ancient swords. Isn't that inconsistent? What do you mean?"

Linda translated it to Peter. After listening, Peter said something with a smile.

After listening to Peter's words, the teacher translated it to Chen Ke with a slightly puzzled expression. "Mr. Peter said, it's not contradictory at all. Brother Kun, what you just said is very clear. No one goes in and out of the castle, it doesn't mean no one steals the ancient sword."

Chen Ke was stunned and asked, "Mr. Peter means Are these people who steal the ancient sword from inside our castle? "

Chen Ke's words made everyone present even more surprised. Everyone looked at Peter and wanted to hear Peter's answer.

Peter listened to Linda's translation, nodded and said yes in Russian.

The people present were in an uproar and whispered to each other.

In fact, Chen Ke had such a guess before, but he was still very surprised to hear Peter say it now.

Chen Ke looked at Peter and said, "according to Mr. Peter's guess, can I understand that you suspect that our people are keeping watch and stealing? It's our people who stole the sword. You must think so, right? "

In this case, you can guess that if someone inside the castle stole the sword, then the suspect is probably Chen Ke's. He said it preemptively. First, he tested Peter. Second, he said it on his own initiative.

It's a kind of self-defense. This kind of active rhetorical question doesn't sound like it was done by their people.Peter listened to Linda's translation and said something with a smile.

Mr. Peter said that he was not sure about this at that time, but it was obvious that if it wasn't made by his people, it was made by Kunge's people, but what he could be sure about at that time was that the ancient sword must not have left the castle, and it must be hidden somewhere in the castle. What's more, it must be hidden in a relatively hidden place, a place that other people usually don't notice, and a place that other people can't think of. "

Chen Ke said, "what you said seems to have some truth, but if it's not your people or my people, I'm afraid your people are more suspicious?"

After listening to Linda's translation of Chen Kehua, Peter frowned and said something with a sneer.

Mr. Peter asked brother Kun why you said that

Chen Ke said with a smile, "isn't it very simple? If you think about it, if you can contact Mr. Peter, who set you apart, and do something in your oil field, can my people do it? And how can my people easily avoid your sentries? Hiding things in the castle is our first visit to your castle. We are not familiar with it. How can we hide the ancient sword in a place you can't find? "

Peter couldn't help laughing and saying a lot when he heard Linda's translation.

"Teacher" continued to translate, "Mr. Peter said, brother Kun, what you think is really right. Mr. Peter himself thought so at the beginning, but all this is just speculation. All he can confirm is that the ancient sword is still in the castle, and it needs further verification who stole it

"Oh?" Chen Ke said, "you can't find the ancient sword anywhere. I'd like to hear how Mr. Peter verified it."

After listening to Linda's translation, Peter began to laugh a little. After a long time, he explained his plan. The teacher translated in a hurry.

Peter said, "I remember there is an old saying in China called" lead the snake out of the hole ". When I know that the ancient sword is in the castle, and the person who stole it is also in the castle, things will be quite easy. I just need to let out the wind and say that I have found the ancient sword

, then the person who hides the sword will be in a hurry, and he will have to go to the place where the treasure sword is hidden Whether the sword has been found or not, and whether it is still hidden there. "

After listening to Peter's words, Chen Ke can't help sighing that the old man Peter is still scheming. This is really a good way.

Chen Ke asked, "so at noon today, you told us that you have found the ancient sword. It's just a walk for the people who stole it, isn't it?"

Peter nodded.

Chen Ke continued, "but there is one thing. There are so many people in the castle every day. How do you know who is going to check the ancient sword collection? You can't watch everyone, can you? Your people and mine add up to more than a few, right? Would you like to come here

Linda translates Chen Ke's words to Peter. Unexpectedly, Peter laughs after listening to the translation and gives Chen Ke a thumbs up and says something.

Chen Ke didn't understand what Peter was saying. He watched the teacher's expression and wanted to see some clues from the teacher's reaction to guess Peter's words. He didn't expect that the teacher was unusually calm, which surprised Chen Ke.

"Teacher" listened to Peter's words and gave Chen Ke an expressionless translation.

Peter said, "brother Kun is worthy of being the boss of Binhai, and his mind is really extraordinary. Yes, with so many people in the castle, I have no time to care who did what and who stole the ancient sword, so I think of a way, except for a few people and sentinels I can trust.

I've sent them out, my people, I've given them a holiday, and yours, I've taken you to the geothermal hot spring. In this way, the sword stealer will try his best to check whether the sword is safe before zero, because I'm going to take out the ancient sword at zero. In this way, it's quite easy to judge who stole the ancient sword I just have people waiting in the castle for him to show up

Chen Ke is stunned. It seems that he has made up his mind. Has he caught the man who stole the ancient sword? But Chen Ke looked around and found that all his people were there. There was no one missing. Was it Peter who caught him? But if it's his own man, why is he so proud?

For a moment, Chen Ke is hard to guess, and can't figure out a clue. He takes a look at the "teacher" and finds that the "teacher" has no expression and doesn't mean to communicate with him. Chen Ke can't help but wonder.

"It seems that Mr. Peter must have caught the man who stole the ancient sword?" Chen Ke asked.
