v10 Chapter 27: camera clue

"You mean, you're looking for a lost Hasselblad camera?"

When Song Kan was invited to the hotel where they were staying early in the morning by Lin Xiuyi, he unexpectedly learned that he was just asking himself to find a lost camera. There was a hint of displeasure on Officer Song Kan's face.

"It's just a camera. If Officer Lin really likes it, I can give you one..."

Although Song Kan said politely, there was still contempt for Lin Xiu in his eyes. He felt that this was Lin Xiuyi asking him for bribes in the name of FBI Officer Cornwallis. But how can this be done? Establishing good relations with police organizations in Europe and the United States is another important task for Songkan to come to the UK this time. After all, the former Thai leader who is wanted by the Thai government now lives in London. Compared to the victims in the tragic Dover case, the extradition of the two wanted former prime ministers to Thailand is what the current Thai government cares most about, right? But in order to do this, the attitude of the Americans and Japanese is definitely something that Officer Song Kan must actively strive for.

"Hey, Officer Songkan! I think you have misunderstood something..."

Lin Xiuyi looked at the other party's somewhat unkind eyes, and then found a piece of information about Kawauchi Shihua from the documents he had collected and placed it in front of Song Kan. This information is an exclusive interview with Kawauchi Mika by a professional photography magazine in Japan. Lin Xiuyi pointed to the photo of the interview with Nakagawa Mika holding the camera with his finger, and said to Song Kan with a solemn expression:

"Look, it's this camera. The deceased Kawauchi Mika used to be a photographer. What she is most talked about in the industry is the works she shot with the Hasselblad H6D-100C camera. If you use Kawauchi Mika herself In other words, she can't imagine her life without this camera."

"But do you know how much this camera sells for, the retail price of the camera alone is as high as 4.7 million yen, or nearly $43,000, and that's what you have without any high-end lenses. Price. According to my recent survey of Kawauchi Shika, the Hasselblad kit she has, including lenses and other accessories, is likely to be worth as much as $100,000. According to the knowledge in photography magazines, Kawanuchi Mika probably owns more than one Hasselblad camera, and this wealth alone is already considerable. However, I did not provide the investigation report of the Thai police that you provided. , found any recordings of these cameras…”

Lin Xiuyi suddenly raised the doubts he found in front of Officer Song Kan. Song Kan gradually restrained his contemptuous eyes, and he began to listen carefully to the questions raised by Lin Xiuyi.

"Yeah! A professional photographer was killed, but the police did not find any photographic equipment in her home. Does it make sense? Although Song Kan himself is not very familiar with photography, he Still know that photography is a very expensive hobby. Even if ordinary people want to buy an entry-level SLR camera, the cost is not a small amount, let alone the equipment owned by a professional photographer. Although Song Kan is still skeptical about the price of $100,000 given by Lin Xiuyi, he absolutely believes that the value contained in these photographic equipment is definitely a huge wealth in Thailand.”

Thinking of this, Song Kan couldn't help but ask Lin Xiuyi curiously:

"So, Officer Lin, what you want us to do is to help you find those cameras that the lady used during her lifetime, right?"

"Sorry, Officer Songkan, I don't think I want to ask you to find these cameras, I just hope that by finding the whereabouts of these cameras, I can find some clues before Kawauchi Mika's disappearance. Those who have access to these photographic equipment, It is very likely that there will be contact with the human-snake group that kidnapped Shihua in Kawauchi. As long as we find the clues of these cameras, it is very likely to find more clues related to the human-snake group. In this way, our investigation will have a new direction."

Lin Xiu raised his head and asked police officer Songkan sincerely.

"But, Thailand is so big, isn't it still like looking for a needle in a haystack for our people to find a camera?"

Officer Song Kan thought for a moment, and then mentioned his concerns to Lin Xiuyi again.

"I had doubts about this before, but the brands of these cameras are not common. Even if a layman gets these cameras, as long as he searches the Internet a little about the brand, he will soon be able to discover the value of these photographic equipment. After all, if you want to find a buyer for such expensive photographic equipment, it should not be easy. After all, even if it is stolen, the buyer has to pay a huge sum of money. Moreover, the sales of Hasselblad cameras are not easy. The final buyer can be found from official channels, and ordinary people will not spend a lot of money to buy such an expensive camera~lightnovelpub.net~ So even if they are sold, these Buyers of photographic equipment can only be a certain group of people. And these people must also meet the following two conditions - have money and understand certain photography skills..."

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's explanation, Officer Song Kan immediately felt that this suggestion that might have seemed like a bad idea was actually feasible. After all, what Lin Xiuyi wanted to ask him to track down was a camera worth more than $40,000. And in Thailand, how many people are willing to spend so much money on a camera? If you think about it a little bit, there are not many real potential buyers.

"Officer Lin, I have a general understanding of what you mean. Although I personally think your idea is a bit whimsical, I am still willing to try the following. If we are lucky enough, maybe we can really find out from the clue of the camera. what……"

Officer Song Kan didn't dare to talk too much, after all, it's hard to say whose hands this expensive camera fell into. If it was corrupted by his own people, Song Kan would not be able to explain to Lin Xiuyi. However, he still decided to communicate Lin Xiuyi's idea with the senior leaders in the country. Now that the Dover case has received so much attention from Western countries, if Thailand can play a huge role in this joint case handling, it will greatly improve the status and voice of the Thai police in Interpol. This kind of thing, Song Kan must be happy to see it happen.
