Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 1130 Antique Appraisal

"Antique identification?"

When I found Dr. Ali's house the next day, the doctor was about to go out, holding an old wooden board in his arms, with beautiful cursive Chinese characters written on it.

"That's right," the doctor smiled, looking as if he was about to make a fortune, "This wooden board was originally brought back as an ornament at Uncle Kurisuke's house, but it was suddenly found to be a sliding box with a seemingly It's a little old dish, let's see."

The doctor opened the sliding door of the wooden board, and a cushion and a small ink-colored saucer were stuffed into the space of the small box.

After the doctor's rich uncle passed away, the villa left behind was inherited by Aunt Dingzi, and now it has fallen into the hands of the doctor. It is a hidden wealth, and he even went to find the treasure before.

"Uncle Lisuke is a very rich man, so I thought this dish should be a very valuable antique, so I contacted a familiar appraiser." The doctor said with a smile.

Gao Cheng glanced into the box.

It seems that the appraisal program the day before yesterday had a great influence, and Wakita Kanezuri is still waiting for him to help find an appraiser... Let's solve it quickly, it's annoying to be missed all the time.

"But doctor," Gao Cheng wondered, "you are not short of money now, why are you so excited?"

"It's not the same," the doctor blushed, "this one is different."

If the small dish is really worth money, he will have more than his own money. It just so happens that Fusha has left Japan again these few days...

"In this case, I'll go with you, doctor," Gao Chengmiao understood, and changed the subject, "A client also entrusted me to help identify antiques."

After returning to the office and taking the wood carvings of Wakita Kennori, Gao Cheng got into Dr. Ali's yellow car to appraise the teacher's house.

It is said that the 100 million yen black lacquered wood carving plate in the program of appraising treasures the day before yesterday was appraised by that appraiser, an old man named Xijin Faxuan, who is quite famous in the appraisal of antiques and fine arts.

The reason why the doctor knows each other is because the other party's hearing is not very good, and he specially asked the doctor to make hearing aids.

"That's the way it is. There seem to be quite a few people looking for Mr. Xijin's appraisal recently." Dr. Ali stopped the car in front of a Japanese-style garden-style mansion resentfully, but no one responded when he shouted at the door.

In fact, besides looking for Xijin Jianbao, he came here today for another reason, that is, something went wrong with the hearing aid he invented.

One room inside the mansion and the room,

Xijin Faxuan is appraising three pieces of black lacquer carved plates. These three carved plates are almost identical, and the pattern is a crane.

The three owners of the carved plate sat quietly in front of the wooden box in which the carved plate was stored, and looked at each other with inexplicable expressions.

The horse-faced uncle Toshima Motoyuki, 41 years old, an employee of a securities company, found a black lacquer carving plate in the warehouse inherited from his deceased grandfather.

Chono Kinji, a bald, fat old man with a beard, is 74 years old and the former president of a real estate company. He bought a carved black lacquer plate for 10 million yen 20 years ago.

And the curator of the Gusi Art Museum, a 46-year-old man named Sakamaki Suzue, brought the black lacquer carving plates exhibited in the art museum all the year round. Because the art museum was redecorated and opened, the Kurosaki carving plates were needed as Publicity focus.

The three of them contacted the appraiser because of the treasure appraisal program the day before yesterday, but they did not expect that there were so many black lacquer carved plates, obviously there were fakes among them.

Xijin Faxuan wore glasses and looked at the carved plates one by one, wanting to ask questions, but the hearing aid didn't work well.

"Are there any other guests today?" The three people sitting quietly heard shouts from outside.

"Oh, it should be a friend of mine who came," Xijin Faxuan got up and said, "The three of you should wait in the reception room first, and I will notify you after the appraisal results come out."

"okay then."

The three clients, led by the maid, went to the reception room one after another. After Xijin Faxuan packed the carved dishes, he also walked out of the appraisal room.

"Brother Ali, the hearing aids don't seem to work well again."

At the entrance, Xijin Faxuan saw Dr. Ali and Gao Cheng, and his eyes paused on Gao Cheng.

"Could this be... that famous detective?!"

"I forgot to tell you," the doctor introduced, "Ah Cheng also has antiques that he wants to appraise today. Is Mr. Xijin free?"

"Oh," Xijin Faxuan came back to his senses, "put it here with me first, and come back after the appraisal."

There are indeed a lot of commissions recently, and the cabinets in the appraisal room are full, but it doesn't matter if you take the time to help.

"Actually, it's not my own thing," Gao Cheng hurriedly explained, "it's a client. I'll ask him to call you the appraisal fee later."

"So that's how it is," Xijin Faxuan was stunned, "I heard that Detective Chenghu is an expert in gem identification..."

"I just identify gems as an amateur."

Gao Cheng secretly smiled wryly.

His proficiency-level gem identification came from Kidd, and he has the ability, but he is still far from an expert, and he doesn't know how it spread.

"Can this still work?" In the appraisal room, Xijin Faxuan did not conduct the appraisal immediately, but took off the hearing aid and handed it to the doctor.

It was a pocket hearing aid with angel wings that looked a lot like a Bluetooth headset.

"There should be no problem," the doctor checked, "I'll take it apart and have a look..."

"Excuse me, where is the toilet?" Gao Cheng asked a maid in the corridor while the doctor was repairing the hearing aid.

"We're going now."

Behind the maid was the horse-faced uncle Toshima Motoyuki, who seemed to be going to the bathroom, but his face was a little ugly after seeing Gao Cheng, and his fingers trembled as if seeing something indescribable.

"What's wrong?" Gao Cheng asked strangely when he noticed that the horse-faced uncle was strange.

"Ah, no, it's nothing," Toshima Motoyuki said with a stiff smile, "I just think you look familiar..."

"Maybe you've seen me on TV," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "I'm Kido Kocheng, a private detective."

"Detective?" The maid asked in surprise, "Is that the left character?"

"I'm not a leftist..."

It didn't take long for the doctor to repair the hearing aid. When Gao Cheng came back from the bathroom, Xijin Faxuan had already started the appraisal.

The three carved black lacquer plates surprised the doctor.

"Isn't this the 100 million yen antique on TV? How come there are three?"

"This is the real one," Xijin Faxuan admired the carved plate in the middle fondly. "It is painted with high-quality black lacquer in layers. 80 million, even if it is 100 million, there will be people who want to buy it!"

"Is it really worth 100 million yen?" The doctor opened his eyes wide.

It was a huge sum of money for him, if that small plate was worth 100 million... No, even a few million would be enough to fill his small coffers, too much would be bad.

"Are the other two fakes?" Gao Cheng glanced at the remaining two carved black lacquer plates, "It also looks pretty good."

"It's not a fake," Xijin Faxuan shook his head and said, "Although it's not as good as the real one, it's still worth a little money. It should be an imitation made by a famous sculptor who practiced his hands when he was young. It's probably worth several million."

"Is there such a big difference?"

Gao Cheng carefully compared several black lacquer carving plates, but he couldn't see much difference.

Antique appraisal is really a technical task...

"Ok?"

The system suddenly dinged, a settlement message popped up, and an "Antique Appraisal" card appeared on the system interface.

strangeness.

Gao Cheng was slightly taken aback.

He didn't do anything, how did he settle a card?
