The figure of speech used in the sentence is sarcasm.

<h3>What is Sarcasm?</h3>

This refers to the figure of speech that makes ridicules of a person by saying the opposite of what they really mean.

Hence, we can see that from the given sentence, there is the statement that Orizaga is no thief but wherever he passes, things gets missing which is a jibe and shows the opposite of what he means.
