Chapter 78

"Oil painting?"

Lu Xin slightly a Zheng, threw a curious look to the younger sister.

Fat manager Liu is standing beside him. It's not easy for him to talk to his sister directly.

Now my sister was excited because she saw some little secrets, so she showed great cooperation and said, "yes, I just heard that woman tell the old man that she saw the painting, so she became what she used to be. The old man looked a little nervous. He quickly asked her which one she was, and she said it was the group she had brought back from the waste search team outside the city. "

"Covered with a black cloth, it's just a simple wooden frame."

"He also said that when he went to pick up the goods, all the people in the search team were dead. It seemed that they had played a trick and killed each other with guns. The scene was very chaotic. The painting was at the scene, and it was not in the list they gave at the beginning..."

“……”

Lu Xin nodded quietly, turned around and winked at his sister.

It means, "keep listening!"

Sister nodded excitedly and climbed back happily.

The door opened slightly, then closed gently, no one knew that my sister had gone back.

Lu Xin pondered for a while and suddenly said, "this Mr. Xu looks very rich."

The fat man around him was slightly stunned and replied with a smile: "Mr. Xu has a lot of status even in the main city."

Lu Xin nodded and said, "I just saw many beautiful paintings and statues hanging in his living room."

Fat manager Liu was surprised: "Mr. Shan Bing also knows about art?"

Lu Xin nodded and said, "I learned a little from my teacher when I was a child, but I just knew it."

"It's amazing."

Fat manager Liu nodded repeatedly, then laughed and said: "you see, Mr. Xu is one of the few people who still know the precious value of art works after the disaster, and devoted his whole life to searching for and protecting them!"

"As you know, now we are all committed to the reconstruction of civilization and order, and art is an indispensable part of our culture. We pay more and more attention to the art before the disaster. However, in the period of the initial collapse of civilization, these things could once be regarded as worthless things, just like garbage thrown in the abandoned city..."

"To put it bluntly, at that time, many people didn't think there was a chance for civilization to be rebuilt."

“……”

Lu Xin nodded and said, "how does Mr. Xu usually collect those artworks?"

Fat manager Liu took a look at Lu Xin, and then said with a smile, "I don't know. However, if Mr. Shan Bing is also interested in art works, we can have a lot of contacts in the future. No matter you plan to sell or collect, I have some ways..."

Lu Xin just made a noncommittal "um".

In my heart, I have gradually understood some things.

If his expectation is not bad, the works of art collected by the Xu family should be illegal.

There are many search teams in the satellite city, and this is the highest income but high risk job type in Qinggang city.

The task of these search teams is to explore old cities one by one and collect available resources.

There are also many types of search teams, and there are many forms of formation.

Some are entrusted by the administrative department of Qinggang City, some are entrusted by some companies, or by some big people.

What did the father and daughter say about the famine search team? Is it to help them collect all kinds of works of art?

……

……

You can guess from the conversation that my sister reported just now that the famine search team got something that their father and daughter wanted, so Xu Xiaoxiao, Mr. Xu's daughter, went to receive it. But when she got to the place, she found that the famine search team had all died, and at the scene, she found a painting that was not in their collection plan, But she brought it back.

It was because she saw the painting that she had such a big problem.

That makes sense.

As Mr. Xu said, the main city is very strict, so it is difficult for any special pollution source to enter the main city from the outside, and his daughter has no chance to contact these special pollution sources. So, how is she polluted?

The reason is very simple. Naturally, she came into contact when she was out of the city

……

……

While Lu Xin was thinking about it, the door of the living room was opened.

Mr. Xu, who was leaning on crutches, appeared at the door. He looked nervous, but he was hiding it well. He nodded to Lu Xin with a smile and said: "this time, thanks to Mr. Shan Bing, the little girl has recovered, but she is still very weak. In order to take better care of her, I'm going to take her back to the main city overnight to recuperate... And the reward for this time, I must... "

Lu Xin took a look, across the open door, you can see Xu Xiaoxiao is leaning on the sofa.

She has just been cured, should be in the spirit of extreme fatigue, but has been very nervous looking out.

Her eyes give people a kind of faint fear, but also extremely greedy feeling.

Slightly shook his head, Lu Xin said: "now is not the time to receive payment."

Mr. Xu was slightly stunned and hesitated: "Mr. Shan Bing means..."

"Your problem has not been solved yet."

"The pollution source has not been dealt with yet. How can I collect money now?" Lu said

"This..."

Looking at Lu Xin's sincere face, Mr. Xu was slightly surprised. After a pause, he said with a smile: "ha ha, thank you for your kindness, but I don't think you need to be so troublesome. I asked my daughter carefully just now. She didn't touch anything strange, just because she was under too much pressure before, So I had such a rebellious experience... "

"Mr. Shan Bing, don't worry. This is the end of the matter. Even if there is a problem, I won't blame you."

Said slightly, and said: "Mr. individual on the report, you can write, there will be no problem!"

Hearing his words, manager Liu, a fat man on one side, was a little strange.

He broke in with a smile and said, "since Mr. Xu has said that, then the entrustment can end here..."

Then he turned to Lu Xin: "the reward for this time..."

Listening to them, Lu Xin frowned slightly.

One side of the younger sister, quietly appeared behind Mr. Xu, hanging upside down on the doorframe, waved to Lu Xin and said with a smile: "brother, they just discussed that they would secretly take the painting hidden by her back to do research..."

"She said that the painting is very valuable and must not be known to others..."

“……”

Lu Xin frowned slightly.

Facing the smiling faces of Mr. Xu and fat manager Liu, he slowly shook his head: "this can't do."

"Work must be taken seriously."

Then he looked up and the lights around the villa shone high on his face, which made his face bright in different shades. His eyes in the shadow came quietly, looking a little strange and serious, and said: "since I have accepted your entrustment and accepted your money, of course, I will completely solve it for you, no matter who are polluted, Or the source of pollution. "

"In the previous contract, it was very clear that only when the patient was completely cured could he get the reward of 100000 yuan, right?"

“……”

The atmosphere has become a little delicate.

Mr. Xu and fat manager Liu's face were a little surprised, and they thought there was something wrong with the interpretation of the contract.

Lu Xin watched them quietly.

He didn't understand. He knew it was these dangerous things, and he had to lie and hide them secretly

This father and daughter of the Xu family are insane, right?
