He had just married a policewoman when he was diagnosed with criminal genius.

At this moment, Jiang Xue also noticed that something was wrong with Lu Chen.

Sun Dazhi also stopped in his tracks.

"What's wrong with my money?" Sun Dazhi waved the banknotes in his hand. "Brother Lu, you're underestimating me by trying to stop me from paying."

Lu Chen laughed and said, "It's not what you think. It's just that there's something wrong with your money. If I'm not mistaken, two of the bills inside are counterfeit."

Sun Dazhi's hand froze in mid-air.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xue's expression turned serious.

"what!"

Sun Dazhi said in disbelief, "How is this possible?"

Lu Chen quickly walked to Sun Dazhi's side.

Two banknotes were pulled out.

"These two are fake."

Jiang Xue and Sun Dazhi gathered around.

"Brother Lu, are you sure you're not mistaken? I see nothing wrong with these two!"

Jiang Xue also didn't see anything wrong.

Lu Chen shook his head. Ordinary people don't know much about this kind of thing and might not be able to tell, but how could Lu Chen not be able to tell?

This counterfeit bill still requires some skill.

However, in Lu Chen's eyes, it was all the same as fake.

Although the counterfeiters did put in some effort and their imitation techniques were somewhat sophisticated, a fake is still a fake, and the flaws are obvious.

"First of all, the watermark is poorly made. Real security threads are embedded, while the watermark on this banknote is just printed on."

Lu Chen lifted it up following the light.

"It doesn't look as natural when light shines through."

Lu Chen paused for a moment: "And here, look at the '100' mark on a genuine banknote. It changes between blue and green depending on the angle. This is called optically variable ink. Although these two banknotes have similar colors, they don't change."

There were still some loopholes, but Lu Chen didn't say anything more.

It's enough to let them know that these are counterfeit bills.

After hearing what Lu Chen said, Sun Dazhi stared intently at the remaining genuine banknotes in his hand.

A look of surprise crossed his face: "Really... the colors do change."

"I've been fooled by that motherfucker..." Sun Dazhi muttered under his breath, then looked up at Lu Chen: "Brother Lu, your eyesight is amazing. You could tell the banknotes were fake at a glance."

At the same time, Sun Dazhi was also somewhat relieved that Lu Chen had discovered the money was counterfeit in advance.

Otherwise, if you go to pay the bill yourself and the owner finds out and calls the police, things will get a bit complicated.

Even if you are also a victim, going to the police station for investigation is inevitable.

Jiang Xue didn't expect that Lu Chen could tell at a glance that Sun Dazhi was holding counterfeit money.

Even she didn't notice.

They had specifically studied this knowledge while they were studying at the police academy.

But now it seems that little bit of knowledge is completely insufficient.

Who exactly is the police?!

But how did Lu Chen know all this?

But the more important question now is where did this money come from?

As a director, Sun Dazhi would certainly not intentionally use counterfeit money.

There's only one reason: Sun Dazhi received these two counterfeit bills from somewhere.

Receiving counterfeit money can be a big deal or a small deal.

If it's just one or two counterfeit bills on Sun Dazhi's side, then it's not a big problem; just confiscate the counterfeit money.

However, if a large quantity of counterfeit money enters Jiangbei City, then the problem will be much bigger.

Jiang Xue asked impatiently, "Xiao Sun, where did you get this money?"

Sun Dazhi pondered for a moment, then his expression suddenly became somewhat subtle: "I just wanted to save trouble, so I exchanged a few hundred yuan in cash at a supermarket."

"Do you still know where that supermarket is?" Jiang Xue asked.

Sun Dazhi's forehead was covered in sweat: "I know where it is, it's not far from here."

"Okay, give me your name and address, and I'll contact my colleague right away to come and handle it."

Sun Dazhi nodded heavily and handed the two counterfeit bills to Jiang Xue for safekeeping.

She then looked at Lu Chen gratefully: "Brother Lu, I really owe you a lot today. If you hadn't discovered it early, I would have been in big trouble after spending this money."

Lu Chen waved his hand: "We're all family, don't be so formal."

As night deepened, the barbecue stalls along the street remained bustling.

Less than ten minutes later, a police car arrived at the barbecue stand.

Two police officers got out of the car.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Li, is it your shift today?" Jiang Xue greeted them.

One of the tall, thin policemen said, "Yes, Xiao Jiang, I heard you received counterfeit money?"

Jiang Xue nodded.

He then explained to the two how Sun Dazhi received the counterfeit money.

At the same time, the counterfeit money was handed over to the two men for inspection.

The two took it and examined it carefully by the light of the street lamp. Their brows furrowed in unison as they placed the order.

They were both veterans at the police station, and upon seeing the counterfeit money in their hands, they realized the situation was getting complicated.

The two men were veterans of the police station and had been involved in many cases related to counterfeit money.

Therefore, they have also come into contact with some counterfeit money.

But this is the first time they've ever seen counterfeit money with this level of precision.

If they don't look closely, they might be fooled.

Not to mention ordinary people.

It's not surprising that Sun Dazhi didn't notice.

"Sir, where did you receive these two counterfeit bills? Please tell us." The police officer looked at Sun Dazhi.

"Okay, okay, okay." Sun Dazhi nodded repeatedly.

Their current location is not far from the supermarket that Sun Dazhi mentioned.

They walked for three minutes to reach the supermarket where Sun Dazhi exchanged counterfeit money.

"This is it," Sun Dazhi said.

The police officer nodded.

"We've confiscated these two banknotes."

"Mr. Sun Dazhi, right?!" a police officer asked.

"yes!"

"Please keep your phone accessible. We will contact you again if needed."

After giving their explanations, there was nothing more for Lu Chen and the others to do.

The rest was left to Jiang Xue's colleagues.

"Okay, let's continue filming at the same time and place tomorrow."

"Then I'll be going now."

……

After going home.

Lu Chen sat down at the computer and started searching quickly.

Seeing that there were no results for his search, Lu Chen beamed with joy.

Jiang Xue asked curiously, "Lu Chen, your acting is so good, did you train before?"

Lu Chen turned his head and replied, "No, I don't know why, but I don't think acting is that difficult."

"oh!"

"Then why did you immediately tell that Sun Dazhi had counterfeit money?"

"You know so much about the various anti-counterfeiting measures on banknotes?" Jiang Xue finally voiced her curiosity.

Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm and said, "You forgot that I majored in fine arts."

"When we were studying, I had nothing to do, so I learned to draw the paper money of our Xia Kingdom. I was very obsessed with it at that time and studied it very deeply, so I know how to authenticate paper money."

"Oh, I see!" Jiang Xue no longer doubted it.

However, her husband's hobbies seem a bit strange.

When other people paint, they either paint landscapes or beautiful women.

He's quite something, he likes to draw money.

Not to mention that he had previously studied some kind of cheating techniques, which sounded like something related to "torture".

But then I thought, as long as he doesn't actually break the law, it's his freedom to research whatever he wants, and nobody can interfere.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, before meeting Jiang Xue, the original owner of this body studied fine arts.

This gave Lu Chen a very reasonable excuse of "business matching".

He stopped thinking about it, turned to look at the screen, created a new file, and the file name was prominently displayed: Script.

Lu Chen thought to himself: Since Sun Dazhi said there were no restrictions on the subject matter, as long as the theme was about banning gambling, it would be fine.

Online gambling... well, it counts as gambling, right?
