"Hello."
Ka Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Hello." Violet's voice was very cold.
The back door of the car opened, and Ka Xiu sat on it, crossing his arms over his chest. His eyes were looking at Violet's back in the passenger seat intentionally or unintentionally. Of course, it was not because of her graceful figure or outstanding appearance, but because he could feel the murderous aura in her body.
This murderous aura is not directed at him, but an aura that has formed naturally over the years. Ka Xiu senses mutation and is very keen, so he can detect this hidden aura.
Obviously, this Violet is not Matthew's mistress or secretary, but someone similar to a bodyguard. According to Cardiff's guess, this woman should be related to the ace of spades...
The Sand Dust Organization once assassinated Phil, but it failed because Ka Xiu was nearby. They obviously will not give up just like this, and most of the actions against Kangnan Company are still going on in secret. This woman whose codename is Violet is probably sent by the Ace of Spades organization to protect Matthew, the general manager of Kangnan Company...
The car started and soon drove into the spacious street.
The place they were going to was the Center Street Municipal Museum.
There were no accidents along the way, about ten minutes later.
Ka Xiu got out of the car and raised his hand to block the sunlight and took a look. It was a gray-white rectangular square. Surrounded by circular flower beds planted with flowers and plants, there are street lamps on the sides. At the center is a circular white stone fountain, its tiles gleaming white in the sunlight. On the stone platform in the center of the fountain, there is also a five- to six-meter-tall bronze statue of the first mayor of Shirakawa City.
On the black bench next to it, citizens sit here from time to time and chat in the sun, or feed the pigeons with crumbs of bread.
With two bangs, the car door closed.
Matthew and Violet also walked down from above.
One is handsome and elegant, the other is beautiful and delicate, they look like a pair. Ka Xiu next to him is more like a bodyguard.
"Come on, let's go in and take a look."
As Matthew spoke, he took out a black invitation card from his arms. There was a circle of light gold wrapping around the edge of the invitation card.
As soon as the three of them took a step forward, a security guard in blue clothes walked over. Seeing the invitation in Matthew's hand, he hurriedly came to greet him. After asking for his identity, he said that he would send his men to stand guard here to prevent Matthew's luxury car from being bumped.
Then he watched the three people leave with a respectful expression.
Obviously this is not an antique exhibition at all, but an exchange meeting for the upper class. Even the museum security guards are flattering. I am afraid that the White Rose Company has given them a lot of benefits for being so enthusiastic.
We walked through the white stone road and circled it a few times. A square museum appeared in front of everyone. The building is very tall, surrounded by large pieces of transparent glass. A blue carpet is spread all the way from the inside to the outside at the entrance.
There were about a dozen or twenty security guards in blue uniforms walking around, some holding rubber sticks in their hands.
"Matthew?"
"Evel?"
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Yeah, long time no see!"
Near the gate, a young man in the same suit and leather shoes came up to him. He also had a black invitation in his hand to attend the antique show, and he seemed to be a friend of Matthew's.
"Didn't you go to Donghai County with your father to do business? When did you come back?" Matthew was also a little happy.
"It's not easy to do the rubber business there. My dad stayed there to manage the branch and asked me to go back to Beiliu County to handle the affairs of the head office. I've been so busy lately that I have a headache and I haven't had time to drink tea with you. I just had time today to attend the White Rose Antiques Exhibition, and I didn’t expect to meet you.” Aiweier said with a smile.
"That's good, let's go together." Matthew smiled.
It is obvious that the relationship between the two is not ordinary. They may not be just ordinary friends, but they are probably the kind of friends they have grown up with since childhood.
"Who are these two?"
Aiweier glanced at Violet and Card Xiu next to him.
"Oh, we are all friends, let's go to the antique show together." Matthew introduced: "This is Violet, and this is Levi."
The four of them chatted at the door for three or four minutes, and then walked toward the city museum door together. After checking the invitation, they walked into the venue along the passage without encountering any obstruction.
The interior of the museum is very spacious, and White Rose Antique Company has coordinated with the museum. The Municipal Museum temporarily lent the west exhibition hall to the White Rose Company to hold a themed antique exhibition for a period of time, and the White Rose Company had to pay a large sum of money.
But when people are rich, what stands out is their style.
Shirakawa City Museum has the best location, the largest area, and the most complete facilities. The brand White Rose Antiques Exhibition is naturally chosen here. It would be too shameful to choose a small place.
It's too shabby, and even the upper class won't come.
"Hey, Mr. Matthew."
"Matthew is here?"
As soon as everyone entered the exhibition hall, some people already in the hall looked over. Kangnan Company is a big company in Shirakawa City, and its wine business is extremely profitable these days.
Naturally, Matthew's status will not be low.
He immediately showed a perfect smile and walked over elegantly. Ai Weier and Violet also followed.
Only a tall and tall Ka Xiu was left standing there.
Matthew had already told him that the White Rose Antique Show was a place for Matthew to make connections. Card Xiu can look around by himself for the time being. When the antique show ends in the morning, Matthew will ask the organizer for Card Xiu.
After all, in principle, the products that are still on display cannot be sold for the time being. Otherwise, what will the subsequent upper class people see?
After slowly looking around the exhibition hall, I saw that the architectural layout of the Municipal Museum is indeed vast. The place where Ka Xiu is standing now is a main hall, supported up and down by marble pillars. On the gray-black floor, there are high counters at regular intervals.
Above the counter is a collection covered with glass.
At a glance, there are at least hundreds of items in the main hall.
There are also many passages on the left and right sides, leading to the themed side halls. For example, a living room is full of antiques such as oil paintings and landscape paintings, and it is also full of antiques such as porcelain bottles.
The collection brought by White Rose Antique Company is probably more than that of the Shirakawa City Museum. It is indeed a big company.
Ka Xiu quickly walked aside and walked along the edge of the counter. Ten meters ahead, a beautiful girl wearing a metal nameplate on her chest and a black dress was telling the people around her about the story of the objects hidden inside the glass cover.
"Miss, is there an ancient currency exhibition hall here?"
"Sorry sir, there is no special exhibition hall. The currency collection is placed in the same exhibition hall as the statue collection, landscape paintings and products. If you want to take a look, just go forward to the third side hall." The girl's face with a professional smile.
"Thank you." Kaxiu immediately walked over with a clear purpose.
He quickly entered a side hall. The walls of this hall were hung with landscape paintings. There are also pieces of introductory paper below the frame, indicating the artist's background and price.
In front of the landscape paintings were collections covered by glass covers. Card Xiu's eyes followed his footsteps as he looked over. Soon he found what he wanted to see, a rectangular booth next to a marble column, with antique coins evenly arranged in a glass cover.
The sun hits the countertop, and the raised crown mark on the surface of the coin is very conspicuous, and above the crown is a crooked cross.
Next to it is a coin with its reverse side on the counter.
The surface of the coin shows the word fifty.
That's right, Crown Cross. One hundred and fifty years ago, a bloody revolution broke out in the Principality of Leint in the northern part of the Red Lebanese Federation. Emperor Wally IV was pushed to the guillotine, and the onlookers threw a large number of coins, stained with blood.
The introduction next to the counter is similar to what Dad said.
Ka Xiu glanced at the counter and then at the people next to him. There are relatively few people in this venue, and the only three or four people there are admiring the landscape paintings on the wall. After he made sure no one was watching him, he gently tapped the bottom of the glass cover with his right hand.
Boom, a dull and soft sound.
Card Xiu's fingers were like bullets, opening a gap between the glue connecting the glass cover and the countertop. Suddenly, a stream of bitter air poured out from the gap. Ka Xiu's eyes lit up, and then he quietly retracted his right hand.
Unfortunately, the glass cover is closely connected to the high platform. If you want to open it, you must take off the entire glass cover. Otherwise, he must have absorbed the obsessional energy in Crown Cross Star first.
Then consider the subsequent purchase of a coin collection.
After looking around, he found that no one was watching him at all. Card Xiu tried his best to get there bit by bit.
His body control is amazing and he can move and retract it freely. Just like an electric drill, your fingers can easily open a gap in the yellow glue layer without having to touch the entire glass cover.
In addition, the sound is soft and the movements are concealed. In just five or six minutes, he visited all the high platforms in this side hall. Unfortunately, there is no obsession with antiques here.
So, Ka Xiu's target was cast to other wings.
He thought that it would be difficult to detect flaws in this method. There were no cameras here, and people nearby could not notice Card Xiu's small movements. What's more, even if he discovered it, so what? He just touched the corners of the glass cover and did not touch the antique inside. The collection has always been placed on the high platform.
In this way, Ka Xiu will be more confident and move faster.
We searched five side rooms in a short period of time, which was very efficient.
But, still no gain.
This also made Kaxiu a little frustrated. In such a large White Rose Antiques Exhibition, he could not find a second obsessive antique besides the Crown Cross. Then looking for obsessive antiques later is like looking for a needle in a haystack? Will it all depend on luck then?
I have no choice but to continue searching.
Finally, in the penultimate wing, wing nine.
In the edge corner, Ka Xiu's body shook slightly.
He clicked his tongue and lowered his head. There was a bronze ring placed inside the glass cover. It was rough in workmanship and quite ugly.
However, this is an obsessive antique!
The bitter taste in Ka Xiu's mouth already told him the answer.
Taking a deep breath, Ka Xiu wrote down the location information of the counter, and then walked towards the last venue.
Five minutes later, he returned to the main hall.
In the spacious hall, upper-class people in suits and leather shoes walked back and forth, chatting and holding hot tea in their hands. There are also some handsome and beautiful young men and women gathered together to take a look. They are all well-dressed and elegant.
The only ones who really looked like collectors were a dozen bald middle-aged or old men. Wearing a very casual light yellow shirt and a pair of reading glasses, he walked around.
Basically don't chat with people, just focus on the collection.
Card Xiu immediately followed suit, and like them, he started from a corner of the counter and explored other places step by step.
He looked hunched over, silent and withdrawn.
Naturally, the people next to him would not ask for trouble. They would often stand sideways when Ka Xiu came over and continue chatting with their friends. Ka Xiu, on the other hand, was lying on the high platform, poking at the edge with his fingers.
Just click it and you can tell the authenticity in a few seconds.
Since there are many collections in the main hall and the crowds are densely packed, Kaxiu is more cautious in his approach. They often pretend to be nonchalant at first, and then suddenly lean in a little bit when the surrounding eyes are gone.
So it took him half an hour to complete the search.
"This entire White Rose Antiques Exhibition is not even as good as the antique transport truck of the Sand Dust Organization..." Card Xiu couldn't help but complain in his heart.
There are only two obsessive antiques in this wave.
One is the Crown Cross coin that has been identified for a long time, and the other is the bronze ring in Hall 9. Although there are gains, it is hard to say how much gains there will be in the end. The main thing is to check the authenticity of the pile of Crown Cross Star coins. There are more than a hundred coins in total. I don’t know how many of them contain the energy of obsession.
If it's like Ka Xiu did last time, a genuine Crown Cross coin has about 0.2 obsession energy, which is equivalent to the energy contained in half a normal obsession antique. I wish there were more...
While he was deep in thought, there was a commotion not far away.
"Damn it, you bitch dare to hit me?! Fuck her for me!"
A young man with black hair was covering the left side of his face with an angry look on his face.
There was a red palm print right there.
Opposite him was a slim and cold figure, Matthew's bodyguard, the violet with the tear mole at the corner of his eye.
Although I'm sorry that Ka Xiu only remembered this, the finishing touch of the tear mark is indeed an impressive point.
I saw a bodyguard rushing over from behind the young man dozens of meters away. Without any thought of pity, he punched Violet directly in the chest with great speed and force.
"Oh? This man has practiced fighting skills."
Ka Xiu narrowed his eyes as he walked over.
On the other side, Violet took a step back. He stepped sideways and quickly dodged the punch. Then his long, round and tight legs flew up and swept diagonally, hitting the bodyguard on the waist.
"This Violet also knows some fighting skills, but it doesn't seem to be very high. He is probably around level 3 of fighting skills." Card Xiu strolled over and said, "The bodyguards sent by the Ace of Spades organization will not have such poor combat effectiveness. Then She should be better at marksmanship."
In the distance, two more bodyguards rushed over behind the young man.
There were three big men in total, and each of them seemed to have about two or three levels of fighting skills. At this moment, the violets are surrounded in the middle.
"Damn it, I can't bring the gun in, it's troublesome..."
Violet narrowed her eyes with a heavy heart.
Suddenly, a tall figure next to him pushed through the crowd of onlookers and squeezed in: "What's so lively? Let me see..."
