Zhou Yu didn’t know what to do about the windfall and looked at Li Fei, who was over there.
At this time, Li Fei was chatting and laughing with a sexy woman in the next seat who had dyed her hair blonde and was wearing bright red lipstick, completely unaware of what was happening on Zhou Yu’s side. In fact, Li Fei didn’t have any hope for this suitcase from the beginning, so when he found a fashionable beauty sitting two rows of seats away from him, he couldn’t resist her beauty. He immediately walked from Zhou Yu’s side to the woman and shamelessly struck up a conversation.
Zhou Yu coughed twice, trying to get Li Fei to pay attention to him. Li Fei glanced at Zhou Yu, but his eyes quickly returned to the woman, which made Zhou Yu feel dissatisfied.
Zhou Yu was about to go over and call Li Fei, but then he thought, what if someone was curious and opened the suitcase while he was away? Wouldn’t the secret inside be exposed? No, he must guard it every step of the way to avoid being troubled by busybodies! He shouted, “Li Fei, come here!”
The fashionable woman who was talking to Li Fei saw Zhou Yu shouting and reminded Li Fei, who then realized that Zhou Yu was looking for him.
Li Fei walked over disappointedly and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Zhou Yu whispered something into Li Fei’s ear.
“Ah—!” Li Fei couldn’t help but open his mouth wide, “Really?” He glanced at the suitcase under the seat and instantly became fond of it.
Zhou Yu almost punched Li Fei and scolded him in a low voice, “Keep it down!” While speaking, his eyes scanned around like a radar, and he found that many surprised eyes were cast on him and Li Fei, which made his heart tighten. He was afraid that someone would suspect what strange things were in the box and demand that he open the box for a quick look.

Li Fei immediately realized that his gaffe was inappropriate, and smiled apologetically at Zhou Yu. Although he was overjoyed in his heart, in order to avoid attracting attention, he lowered his voice and said, “Then we’re going to get rich!”
This windfall was definitely the topic they would discuss next. Zhou Yu was worried that his and Li Fei’s whispering would arouse suspicion, so to avoid attracting attention, he sat down, took out his mobile phone, sent Li Fei a message through WeChat, and signaled Li Fei to read the message with his eyes and hands.
Li Fei took a look at his mobile phone and saw: I want you to keep an eye on the box at all times, so as not to be taken away by someone! He smiled and replied: Of course!
Soon, Li Fei sent Zhou Yu another message: Your suitcase was taken away unknowingly, and there was such a large sum of money in it for no reason. This is too magical! I’m wondering if it’s counterfeit money?
Zhou Yu didn’t have much confidence: It shouldn’t be, right.
Li Fei: I also hope it’s real money, but this matter is really unexpected. It’s convenient to deposit money these days, and it’s also convenient to withdraw money. Depositing money in the bank is both easy and guarantees the safety of funds. Who would bring such a large amount of cash on the train? From this, it can be inferred that these banknotes are likely to be counterfeit money! Let’s assume that the person who swapped the bags was worried that carrying counterfeit money would be discovered during the security check. In order to escape responsibility and at the same time want to take advantage of the situation to make up for some losses, he temporarily decided to swap your suitcase.
Zhou Yu: My logical reasoning for the “switching opportunity” is not rigorous. If that person is really afraid of being found carrying real money during the security check, then he doesn’t have to leave the station, and there is no need to switch your suitcase. Because for him, it is likely to outweigh the gains, because he has no idea what is in your suitcase at all, and whether the value of the things in it exceeds the value of the things in his suitcase.
If I were him, I would definitely make careful travel arrangements in advance, not take the train, but choose to take a long-distance bus on the road, or take a Didi car. What I want to express is: Don’t underestimate other people’s IQ, he may have already thought of what you think of.
Li Fei: Then let me explain, why did he switch my suitcase?
Zhou Yu: I don’t understand.
Li Fei: You still insist on your opinion, maybe that guy underestimated himself, unexpectedly shrank back at the last minute, but was in a hurry to catch the train. Why don’t we make a bet, take the banknotes out for identification, and let the facts speak for themselves. If it is real money, then we might as well hand it over to the train police for processing, so as not to be tense all the way and bear unnecessary psychological pressure.
Zhou Yu: Okay, you take it out and find a place where no one is around to carefully identify it. But be careful, wealth should not be exposed, don’t let anyone see it!
Li Fei: Don’t worry, I won’t.
After the train had been running for more than ten minutes, Li Fei carefully pulled the suitcase out from under the seat, trying to block the opening of the suitcase with his body, pretending to put food in to cover up, took out a dozen banknotes from the suitcase and held them in his hand, then put the suitcase back in place, and then walked towards the toilet.
At this time, there was no one outside the toilet. Li Fei pushed the door and walked in, locked it, and couldn’t wait to straighten the crumpled banknotes, and carefully identified them with an uneasy mood.
First, look at the watermark and color-changing ink. Look at it against the light, and you will see that the watermark “sandwiched” in the paper is very three-dimensional, and the texture of the portrait, graphics and text is very clear. Turn the banknote, and you will see that the optically variable ink of the number “100” changes from golden yellow at a vertical angle to green at a parallel angle, and there is a bright band of light rolling on the number. Observe the optically variable hollow window security line, the color changes from magenta when viewed directly to green when viewed obliquely.
Secondly, touch the portrait on the obverse side of the banknote, the denomination number in the lower left corner, the national emblem, etc. with your fingers, all have obvious bumps.
Fifteen banknotes were identified one by one, and they were all real banknotes.
At this point, he believed that the banknotes outside the box were all genuine currency!
He returned to Zhou Yu with excitement and sent Zhou Yu a message with a smile: Buddy, it’s real money!
Zhou Yu also replied with a smile: I’ll treat you to dinner when I get off the train.
Li Fei: Deal.
Zhou Yu: I can’t figure it out. Someone took your suitcase. If he did it on purpose, then why did he do it? If it was not intentional, then under what circumstances did he make a mistake?
Li Fei: The only thing that makes sense is that there is something wrong with that person’s brain.
Zhou Yu: There is this possibility, but it is not the only possibility.
Li Fei: Okay, buddy, don’t waste your energy guessing, let’s talk about the next plan. As you know, my sister suffers from severe spinal deformity, and I have always wanted to make money for her to have corrective surgery. This money can come in handy, so I propose that we get off at the next stop and then split the money.
Zhou Yu: Isn’t that bad? What if that person finds out that he took the wrong suitcase and then calls the police, and the police retrieve the surveillance and follow the clues to the door, wouldn’t we have to go to the police station for allegedly encroaching on other people’s property?
Li Fei: Why are you so worried! In my opinion, that person may not call the police. Didn’t we suspect that there was something wrong with his brain? Even if he calls the police, the police may not find us.
Zhou Yu: I understand your feelings for wanting to use this money to treat my sister, but we really can’t do that, otherwise we might end up shooting ourselves in the foot!
Li Fei: You’re afraid of being held accountable, right? Okay, all this money is for me. If I am caught by the police, I will bear all the responsibility alone.
Zhou Yu frowned and glanced at Li Fei, whose expression was solemn. He thought that this guy was simply a gambler! After thinking about it, he sent a message to Li Fei: How about this, let’s not get off halfway, and when we arrive at our destination, if we don’t see the police coming to find us after a while, then it’s not too late for us to split the money.
Li Fei thought about it before letting go: Okay.
In order to keep this windfall safe, Li Fei also took the initiative to ask to exchange seats with others. In this way, Li Fei can closely supervise the suitcase placed on the seat with Zhou Yu.
Of course, they also thought that if they kept the suitcase under the seat, it would arouse suspicion, because there were still many empty seats on the luggage rack that could be used to place the suitcase. It would be safer to put the suitcase on the luggage rack, but they didn’t plan to put it up, because they felt that the suitcase was exposed to everyone’s eyes and was not safe. They even suspected that their abnormal behavior might have aroused other people’s suspicion, but between the two evils, they chose the lesser one.
They were really worried and came up with a way that they thought could cover up people’s eyes and ears after discussion.
Li Fei deliberately said loudly to Zhou Yu: “Let’s put the suitcase on the luggage rack.”
Zhou Yu also said in a low voice: “The zipper has been fixed, what if the dirty clothes inside fall out?”
Li Fei said: “Okay, then let the suitcase continue to be placed below.”
They knew that saying this might be secretly scolded by others as fools and lacking basic common sense. The train was running smoothly, and the width of this suitcase would not exceed the edge of the luggage rack. If the suitcase was put down, the things inside would not fall out. However, they didn’t care what others said, they just wanted this effect.
