Chapter 715 (2/2)
”The last one, in fact, I knew it was fake as soon as I started. It was just because I saw such a beautiful imitation for the first time, so I carefully observed it.” The curator said at once.
”You know it's fake as soon as you start?” He Yanwei pondered for a moment and asked, ”is there any mark for that real thing?”
The curator smiles and beckons to he Yanwei. He understands the meaning of the curator and comes to the curator. The curator lowers his voice and says in a voice that only he can hear: ”the bottom of this bronze tripod is very mellow. It feels the same as jade, isn't it true, Just touch the bottom of the tripod and try to feel it. These two tripods feel like metal, so they are all fake. ”
He Yanwei nodded, understood, and asked: ”curator, can you see that these two imitations are all made by one person?”
”Look at the workmanship.” The curator said, ”however, since the imitator has been caught by you, just ask the imitator.”
”I want to get a preliminary judgment from the new curator.” He Yanwei said with a smile.
”In my judgment, these two imitations were made by one person.” The curator understood what he Yanwei meant and gave a positive answer.
He Yanwei no longer said anything. He took the imitation of the tripod and went out to get the first one. He went to the detention room to find Zhang Sheng and Zhang Hui and said, ”I'll check with you. Are these two imitations made by your nephew?”
”Did you catch up with the one delivered? It's so fast. Have you caught it? ” Zhang Sheng asked.
”Don't worry about the case.” He Yanwei said: ”hurry up and see if it's the two you imitated?”
Zhang Sheng and Zhang Hui took one and turned over the bronze tripod at the same time. After only one look, Zhang Sheng said, ”yes, these two are our imitations.”
”How to prove it?” He Yanwei asked immediately.
”In fact, we can get to know the imitated things when we take them.” Zhang Hui explained: ”however, we always leave a mark on the imitated objects. For these two bronze tripods, we leave a pinhole eyelet at the junction of the leg at the bottom and the tripod body, which is covered with a thin layer of copper rust. You see, these two marks are completely in the same position, which is just a pinhole eyelet.”
He Yanwei looked at the place Zhang Hui pointed out. Sure enough, the two bronze tripods were in that position, with a pinhole and a small eye.
He Yanwei nodded, took over the two bronze tripods and prepared to leave the detention room.
”How's the case going?” Zhang shengzhui asked, ”you've all come back with the imitations of the delivery. Can't you miss them?”
”People are caught, but, in the end, what's the matter, also said another.” He Yanwei stopped and said, ”the trial is going on, but there is little hope. This thing was seized from the airport security.”
”Ah? It's over. It's not. ” Zhang Sheng said: ”who is stupid enough to take this thing on a plane?”
He Yanwei sighed and took two bronze tripods out of the detention room. Even Zhang Sheng knew that it was impossible to take this tripod on a plane. How could the man who stole the tripod take the tripod on a plane?
What's more, this bronze tripod has been proved to be fake.
The passenger must have been wronged.
Sure enough, when he Yanwei confirmed that the bronze tripod was a fake, and that it was also the one that Zhang Sheng and their two imitations delivered, substantial progress had been made in the trial of the passenger.
The reason why it is a substantial progress, not a result, is that the trial is still going on, and the police have already verified what the passenger said.
