"But before that, there's still something I need to confirm first."
"Go ahead."
"You still haven't found the things I mentioned, right?"
"We really haven't. All the furniture in my house is made of fast-growing timber; even the materials haven't been around for more than five years."
"During that period, did your family add any new diamonds, gemstones, or the like?"
"Diamonds?" Wu Tingsheng was taken aback. "I honestly don't know. Let me ask my wife."
He went off to make a call, and soon came into the room carrying a jewelry box.
Inside the jewelry box was a messy pile of all sorts of jewelry. He then went to a drawer and took out a stack of receipts and slips.
He spent a long while comparing them, finally picking out a dozen or so pieces and laying them out on the table.
"These were all bought during that time."
"No others?"
"No, my wife would never wear the same piece of jewelry for more than three months."
