Chapter 2705

When she woke up the next morning, Anna's ankle was completely swollen, and the skin at the injured area was purple. The pain caused her to gasp at the slightest touch.

Seeing this, Sokov quickly said to her: "Anna, you may not be able to get out of bed and move around for a few days if you look like this. I will send you to the orthopedic hospital now. You call your boss and ask him for a few days off. "

Anna works as a salesperson in the market and receives a daily salary. She only earns one day's income if she works for one day. Another person might still insist on going to work, but Anna has Sokov as her backer. Not to mention not going to work for a few days, even if she just lies down at home every day, she doesn't have to worry about having no financial resources.

When Anna called her boss to ask for leave, Sokov also walked out of the bedroom with his mobile phone and called Lena: "Hey, Lena, I will go there later today. When you get to the market, open the door first."

Lena knew Sokov's character very well and knew that when he said he would go there later, it meant that he had important things to do, so she asked tentatively: "Misha, is it about Baharov?"

"Uh, no." Listening to Lena's question, Sokov realized that he was just busy worrying about Anna and had forgotten Baharov's safety. He replied with some embarrassment: "It's not Habarov." What happened to my husband is that Anna injured her foot last night. Now her ankle is swollen and the skin on her hands is purple. I want to send her to an orthopedic hospital for a check-up to see if she has injured any bones. "

"Oh, that's it." After figuring out what was going on, Lena nodded and said, "Misha, feel free to take Anna to see a doctor, and leave everything in the store to me."

After handing over his work, Sokov returned to the bedroom and asked Anna who was sitting on the bed: "Have you finished asking for leave from your boss?"

"Well, I've already asked for leave." Anna said, "The boss said that I won't go to work until my foot is healed."

"Anna, it's all my fault." Sokov said apologetically: "If I had put a non-slip mat at the bathroom door, maybe you wouldn't have injured your foot last night."

"It's okay," Anna said magnanimously: "Buy a non-slip mat another day to avoid a similar situation happening again."

After the two had breakfast, Sokov carried Anna downstairs, put her in the passenger seat, and then drove her to a nearby orthopedic hospital.

When he arrived at the hospital, after a X-ray examination, it was found that no bones were injured, and Sokov couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He took the medicine purchase certificate handed to him by the doctor, thanked him, and left the consulting room with Anna in his arms.

After returning to the car, Sokov turned to Anna and asked: "Do you know which pharmacy has a better range of medicines?"

Medical treatment in Russian hospitals is free, and hospitalization is also free. However, their hospitals and pharmacies are separate. If you want to buy medicine, you must go to the pharmacy to buy medicine yourself. Some drugs, such as alcohol for disinfection, will not be sold in pharmacies at all if a doctor issues a purchase certificate.

After Anna checked on her mobile phone, she gave Sokov an address: "There is a large pharmacy two blocks away from the hospital, which has the most complete range of drugs."

Sokov leaned over and took a look at the address, immediately set the navigation and drove in that direction.

Soon, the car arrived outside the pharmacy.

Maybe because it was early, there were not many people buying medicine, and there were very few vehicles parked at the door.

After Sokov parked the car, he was about to get out of the car and go to the pharmacy to buy medicine, but Anna said: "Misha, I want to go in with you."

Hearing Anna say that he wanted to go into the pharmacy together, Sokov quickly got out of the car and pushed a free wheelchair over to the door of the pharmacy. After carrying Anna into the wheelchair and sitting down, he pushed her inside.

Entering the pharmacy, Sokov came to a window, handed the doctor's certificate to the pharmacist, and said politely: "Hello, I want to buy these medicines."

The pharmacist took the doctor's certificate and looked at it, then glanced at Anna in the wheelchair and asked casually: "Are these medicines used by this girl?"

"Yes, that's the medicine she used."

The pharmacist nodded after hearing this and turned around to fill the prescription according to the list on the doctor's certificate.

When Sokov turned around to talk to Anna, he saw her pushing the wheels of the wheelchair towards the other side. He quickly followed and asked, "Anna, where are you going?"

"I see there are new cosmetics on the counter over there." Anna pointed to a counter not far away, "Push me over to have a look."

Sokov was not surprised at all when he heard what Anna said. Cosmetics such as day cream, night cream, and isolation cream contain irritating ingredients, so most of them are sold in pharmacies, so there is nothing surprising about buying cosmetics in pharmacies.

As soon as I arrived at the counter, a young female pharmacist in a white coat came over and asked politely: "Miss, what would you like to order?"

“Is there any new day cream that has arrived?”

"Yes." The female pharmacist nodded: "There are four new day creams. Do you have a favorite brand?"

"Take them out and show them to me."

When the female pharmacist was getting cosmetics for Anna, the pharmacist who was dispensing the medicine called Sokov from a distance: "Sir, the medicine you want to buy has been prepared for you."

Sokov quickly ran over and asked politely: "How much is the total?"

"1,350 rubles."

After the pharmacist collected the money and handed the medicine to Sokov, he also explained to him one by one how to use each medicine.

After buying the medicine and sending Anna home, Sokov rushed to the market.

As soon as he walked to the door of the store, Sokov saw a store at the other end of the street, with many people surrounding it, seemingly watching the excitement. "Misha, you're here!" Seeing Sokov appear, Lena hurriedly greeted him, and proactively said, "I just sold two high-end items, and the price was pretty good."

"It's amazing." Sokov knew that the high-quality goods Lena was talking about were the goods sent by Sister Gao, so he gave him a thumbs-up: "You are so good at selling such expensive clothes. ”

"I put the payment on the table in the back room." After Liena said this, she casually asked: "By the way, how is Anna's leg injury?"

"There's no problem. It's just a sprain, not a bone." Sokov replied, "I've given her medicine and she'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Sokov finished counting the items on the table and put them in the drawer. According to the record on the note that Liena put on the table, after finishing the accounts, she stood up and walked out of the back room, and asked casually: "Why are there so many people in front of the store over there? Are the models from the wedding dress advertisement here?"

"The model for the wedding dress advertisement hasn't arrived yet." Liena shook her head and said, "There was something wrong with the tailor's family."

The tailor Lena was talking about was a young man named Kong, who was married to a Tajik wife. He was originally engaged in repairing furs and various clothing. Later, when his wife saw that he was making money selling furs, she encouraged him to change his career. So he found a batch of goods at the end of last year and officially started a fur sales business.

However, laymen are laymen. From the time of opening to now, I have never heard of making money, but I often hear that his family has lost goods. A piece of fur generally costs about one thousand US dollars. Calculated based on the gross profit of 10% of the fur, losing one piece is equivalent to selling ten pieces in vain.

Sokov thought that the tailor's house had lost another item, so he walked to the water dispenser and took a glass of water. After taking a sip, he asked casually: "How many pieces of clothing did the tailor's house lose today?"

Lena thought for a moment and replied: "At least thirty pieces of clothing were lost."

"What?!" Sokov directly spat out the water in his mouth. He didn't bother to wipe the water sprayed on his clothes, and couldn't wait to ask Lena: "Lena, how many did you say? Thirty clothes, I Did you hear that right?”

"No, you heard it right." Lena said, "I just lost thirty pieces."

Sokov confirmed that the tailor's family had lost thirty pieces of clothes. He immediately thought of Lao Xu whom he mentioned when chatting with Victoria last night. He thought that the tailor's family would not be as unlucky as Lao Xu back then. Someone dug the tunnel. Did you steal all the furs in the store? He calmed down and continued to ask: "Lena, tell me quickly, what is going on?"

"Two men came to the market this morning, and for some reason they ended up at the tailor's house." Lena said: "The tailor was not there at the time, and only the tailor's wife was alone in the shop. After they entered the door, they directly said that they wanted Thirty to fifty pieces of goods were brought in. When I heard that the other party wanted to purchase a large amount of furs, the tailor's wife was very happy. Because the goods in the store were not enough, she went to the surrounding shops to find some goods and brought them back to the store. Two men choose.

The two men spent about an hour sorting through the pile of clothes and picked out thirty pieces of clothing. After paying the money, a porter was found to pack the clothes and take them away. After the two men took the goods away, the tailor's wife returned the unselected goods to the shops.

Since the clothes that the two men transferred were basically taken from other people's houses by the tailor's wife, they had to check out. Unexpectedly, when they checked out, everyone discovered that all the money charged by the tailor's wife was fake. When they went to look for the two men, they found that they had disappeared. Nowadays, shopkeepers who have lost their goods are crowding around the door of tailors’ shops, asking for explanations. "

"Fake money?" Sokov said with some suspicion: "Is all the money received fake?"

"Well, it's all fake."

"I don't think it's possible." When Sokov went to repair clothes in the past, he had dealt with his tailor's wife. He felt that she was a scheming person who could turn into a monkey by sticking hair on her. How could it be possible? Can’t you tell real money from fake money? There must be something fishy in this: "A person who deals with money every day can't tell real money from fake money?"

As he was talking, the security captain walked into the store with several security guards.

"Misha," the security captain said to Sokov, "I was looking for you."

Sokov was stunned for a moment and thought, "What's going on? What does the security captain want from me?"

Just when he was confused, he saw the security captain take out a stack of euros from his pocket and handed it over.

Looking at the euros in the security captain's hand, Sokov couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, wondering why the euros in his hand were all fake, and he could clearly see the "sample ticket" printed on the ticket. Word: "Captain, what do you mean?"

After the security captain handed the fake euros to Sokov's hand, he said: "This morning, a shop on the street received a sum of fake money. Well, this is the money. The purpose of showing it to you is In order to prevent similar situations from being deceived from happening again.”

Sokov knew very well that such poorly printed sample tickets were packed in Christmas gifts by merchants. As long as you were not blind, you could tell the authenticity at a glance. And after getting started, you can feel that the paper is rough, and even counting it will be very difficult. How could someone like my tailor wife be deceived if she was such a smart person?

After Sokov handed the fake money back to the security captain, the other party continued: "That woman is also an idiot. The whole batch of goods was obviously sold for 30,000 euros, but she only received 10,000 euros, and it was all fake." Money, it would be really bad luck for anyone to have such a wife."

When the security captain led the security guards out and went to the next store to remind the store not to be deceived, Sokov also left the store and walked towards the tailor's shop. He wanted to find out what was going on.

Arriving at the outskirts of the crowd, Sokov took advantage of his height and clearly saw the thin tailor standing in the middle of the crowd, explaining to everyone with a frustrated face: "...I had a high fever when I woke up today, so let me My wife came to the store alone, but she didn't expect this to happen. Now that it has happened, please don't worry, I will give you an explanation and I will compensate you for the lost goods. "

But in the shopping mall, there is always little help in times of trouble and more adding insult to injury. No one from the onlookers spoke to the tailor at all. Instead, someone took the lead and rushed into the tailor's shop, ripped off two pieces of clothing, and plausibly said: "You lost two pieces of clothing from my family, so you used these two pieces of clothing to pay off the debt."

Seeing someone taking the lead, the merchants who had lost their goods could not keep their composure. They also rushed into the store and began to **** the goods in the store. They were afraid that if they were slow, all the goods would be robbed by others. The tailor saw so many people pouring into his shop, and he was unable to stop them at all. He could only sit by the door and watch with a numb expression as those people came out of the shop carrying his goods and quickly dispersed. In every store.

Sokov asked a colleague who was watching the excitement: "By the way, where did the tailor's wife go?"

"Ever since it was discovered that the money received was counterfeit, that woman has disappeared." The man said disdainfully: "Maybe she went to meet another sweetheart."

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. A casual comment from his colleague gave Sokov a bold idea. The tailor's wife is very scheming and likes to flirt with others. On weekdays, different men often come to the shop to find her and flirt with her in front of the tailor. Maybe before today's incident, the tailor was not in the market because he didn't want to see his wife having an affair with others. I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen. If his guess is correct, everything that happened that day was scripted and staged by his wife and outsiders to deceive others.

When Sokov returned to his shop, Lena came up to inquire about the situation, and Sokov told the other party his guess.

After hearing this, Liena pondered for a long time, and finally nodded slowly and said, "Misha, I think what you said makes sense. The tailor's wife usually likes to hang out with unscrupulous people. Both of them have black hair." , but she gave birth to a daughter who was blond. This is too outrageous. Every day when the tailor's wife sees that the tailor has not come, she thinks it is a good opportunity, so she calls her friends and asks them to pretend to be buyers, come here to defraud a batch of goods, and then resell them. Go and make a lot of money.”
