Evelin held a cocktail and placed it in front of Sherron, then sat opposite him and smiled softly: "What are you looking at?"
"Oh, nothing."
Xie Lun's eyes moved away from the window and fell on Evelin, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. I saw that she had just washed up, with a little moisture on her face. Her long golden hair was spread over her shoulders like a waterfall. Her wide and comfortable dress was worn on her plump and bumpy figure, which made her look even more mature and feminine.
Xie Lun picked up the wine glass, gestured to Evelin, took a sip, and said with a smile: "By the way, Captain Evelin..."
Evelin waved her hand and said, "Just call me by my name. After adding 'captain', it feels too strange."
"Okay, Evelyn," Sherron said with a smile, "I once read a book written by your brother Joey, which described in detail your previous adventures. Among them, the experience in the Egyptian pyramids was the most thrilling. I don't know. Do you have time to chat?”
"Have you read the book written by Joey?" Evelin shook her head and laughed, "In order to sell books, Joey made up so many bizarre stories. In fact, archeology is very boring, so what thrilling stories are there? .”
"So how did you and O'Connor meet?"
"Joy is right about this. We did meet in Egypt. At that time, he and I happened to be doing archeology on a pyramid." Evelin said vaguely with an unnatural look deep in her eyes, "Who knew that the pyramid was in disrepair and had been robbed, so the structure was not strong and collapsed. Thanks to O'Connor, I escaped from the pyramid."
"A hero saves the beauty." Xie Lun smiled, "It's just that Joey said that you found a resurrected mummy in that pyramid. After fighting desperately, you finally managed to reseal the mummy."
"Do you believe such a bizarre story?" Evelin laughed, "I never understood why Joey's random books were so popular, but now I understand the reason. It's because you guys have such random thoughts every day. , a fan of delusional adventure.”
She didn't know what she was thinking of, and suddenly sighed: "Actually, what's so good about taking risks? A peaceful life is the most beautiful."
Xie Lun narrowed his eyes and looked quietly at Evelin, who suddenly felt sad for some reason. Evelin coughed dryly, raised her head and smiled: "Sorry, I can be so sentimental sometimes, I hope it won't disturb your interest."
What caught her eyes was a pair of eyes emitting a faint purple light.
The expression on Evelin's face froze immediately.
When Evelin woke up again, she found herself lying on the seat with a blanket covering her body. She quickly checked and found that there was nothing abnormal about herself. Open the window shades, the sky outside is already bright.
"you're awake?"
Sherron held a glass of milk and placed it in front of her.
Evelin forced a smile and asked, "When did I sleep last night?"
Xie Lun shrugged: "While you were chatting with me, you said you were sleepy and went to bed."
"Really? Why don't I have any impression." Evelin rubbed her eyebrows, "Maybe I've been too tired recently. After this event is over, I need to take a good rest."
"Your face does not look very good, and it is indeed time to rest." Xie Lun said calmly, "By the way, I watched a movie before going to bed last night. This movie is a bit interesting. The male and female protagonists have no intentions. They entered a strange place, and because they disturbed the items there, they triggered the mechanism and were attacked. At the end of the movie, although they escaped, their child was cursed... "
Looking at Evelin who was getting paler, Xie Lun smiled and said, "How about it, isn't this movie interesting?"
Evelin forced a smile and said: "In general, Hollywood movies all have the same routine, and it's not interesting if you watch too many of them."
"Yes, the ending must have been for a sequel. It's a pity that more than ten years have passed and the second episode has still not been filmed. I guess the movie must have been very poor at the box office that year, otherwise the sequel should have been released a long time ago."
Sherron sighed, shook his head and sat back in his seat.
Eveli's face was pale, and she looked at Xie Lun's back with complicated eyes, murmuring in her heart: "Who...are you?"
After more than ten hours of flying, the plane finally landed at Shanghai International Airport. Standing on a familiar yet unfamiliar land, listening to the familiar yet unfamiliar languages around him, Xie Lun suddenly felt uncontrollably excited. It's like a wanderer who has traveled far away from home and suddenly returns to his hometown, feeling a little panicked.
Evelin came over and whispered: "Liu, I need to escort the cultural relics to the museum with other staff. If you are tired, you can go back to the hotel to rest first. Don't worry, I will ensure the safety of your glass bottle of."
Xie Lun glanced to the side and said with a smile: "Okay, Evelin, go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about me. I'm more familiar with this place than you are."
After Evelin was far away, Xie Lun turned his head and looked to the side. A man wearing a peaked cap shook his head slightly at him and took the lead in walking forward. Sherron followed him until he walked to the parking lot, where the man pulled out a black business car.
Xie Lun didn't hesitate, got in, and the car door closed immediately.
Another man had been lying inside for a long time, with a newspaper covering his face, sleeping soundly. Xie Lun was not polite. He turned around for a long time and finally said angrily: "I flew for more than ten hours and finally landed, but you didn't even prepare a glass of water for me?"
"It's not that I wasn't prepared, it was just that I waited too long and I drank all the wine."
The man removed the newspaper covering his face, revealing a face that Sherron recognized.
It was Long Shisan.
"Although there is no water, I have this, so let's drink it."
Long Shisan took out a bottle of Red Bull from under the seat. Xie Lun didn't hesitate, took it, opened the lid, drank it in one gulp, and walked to the seat after finishing the meal: "It's great."
Looking at Xie Lun's tired look, Long Shisan couldn't help but laugh: "Tell me, what do you want to do when you came to Shanghai secretly?"
Xie Lun raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Didn't you come here specifically to wait for me?"
"Nonsense, you are not as important as those cultural relics. I was sent to keep an eye on these cultural relics that finally returned home. I just accidentally glanced at the personnel information and found you." Long Shisan came forward and moved up and down. Looking at Xie Lun, he said, "You are not wearing makeup. Those traveling with you didn't even recognize you. It seems that you are not well-known in the United States."
"Haha..." Xie Lun rolled his eyes, "Okay, let's skip the stage of sarcasm and testing each other and get straight to the point. Did you arrest three foreigners a few days ago? Two men, one woman, and one A white guy, a black guy, and a brunette beauty.”
Long Shisan nodded and answered simply: "Caught them. They wanted to sneak into a secret research institute in our country to steal something, but we caught them. But the three of them refused to speak, so we were worried about not being able to dig them out. What about their origins? It turns out they are your people."
"They're not mine, I'm just a lobbyist." Xie Lun quickly waved his hand and said, "Tell me, what are you going to do, are you willing to let him go?"
"To be honest, I'm not refuting your face. If it's anything else, as far as our friendship is concerned, it's just a matter of words to let him go. But it's not that simple now. This matter is a bit troublesome." Long Shisan took a breath, with a look on his face "After we caught... no, controlled those three people, we immediately conducted an investigation into the research institute. It turned out that something was really lost in the research institute. If we didn't find that thing and wanted to release them, I'm afraid the superiors were I would never agree to that.”
Xie Lun raised his eyelids and looked at Long Shisan: "So, if you find what you lost, you will let me go?"
Long Shisan shrugged: "Absolutely."
"Okay, then, take me to the crime scene. A simple theft case is not something that this detective can easily capture."
"What kind of place do you think this is? You can go wherever you want? I need to ask my superiors for instructions."
"It's really troublesome, okay, I'll wait for your notification."
Sherron shifted into a more comfortable position and closed his eyes.
Long Shisan frowned in confusion: "Now that we've finished talking about business, can you go?"
"You take me to the hotel."
"You don't know how to take a taxi yourself?"
"Nonsense, why don't I spend money?"
“…”
Long Shisan was speechless for a moment.
