"painting?"

Lu Xin was slightly startled, and cast a curious look at his sister.

Fatty Manager Liu was standing beside him, but he couldn't speak directly to his sister.

The younger sister was excited because she saw some little secrets, so she also showed great cooperation and said, "Yes, I just heard the woman tell the old man that she became the old man because she saw the oil painting. It looks like that. The old man looked a little nervous, and quickly asked her which picture it was, and she said it was in the group brought back from the waste search team outside the city."

"It was covered with a black cloth, and only one framed with a simple wooden frame."

"I also said that when I went to pick up those goods, the people in the search team were already dead. It seemed that they were coaxing and shooting each other to death. The scene was very chaotic. The oil painting was there, and it was not there. Within the list they gave at the beginning…”

"… "

Lu Xin nodded slowly and calmly, turned around halfway, and gave his sister a wink.

This means: "Keep listening!"

The younger sister nodded excitedly and crawled back happily.

The door opened slightly and closed again, and no one knew that my sister had crawled back.

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

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

Lu Xin nodded and said, "I saw a lot of beautiful paintings and statues hanging in his living room just now."

Fatty Manager Liu was a little surprised: "Mr. Shan Bing also understands art?"

Lu Xin nodded and said, "I learned a little from the teacher when I was a child, I just know it."

"It's been amazing."

Fatty Manager Liu nodded again and again, then laughed, and said, "You look good, Mr. Xu should be one of the few people who still understand the precious value of works of art after the catastrophe, and have devoted his life to searching for and protecting them. people!"

"You also know that now everyone is working on the reconstruction of civilization and order, and art is an indispensable part of our culture. Everyone pays more and more attention to the art before the disaster, but it was once in the beginning of civilization. During the period of collapse, these things were once considered worthless, and were thrown into the abandoned city like garbage..."

"To put it bluntly, many people at that time didn't think that civilization had a chance to rebuild."

"… "

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

Fatty Manager Liu glanced at Lu Xin, then smiled: "I don't know that, but if Mr. Shan Bing is also interested in art, we can have more exchanges in the future, whether you plan to sell or collect, I will Some kind of…”

Lu Xin just gave a noncommittal "um".

And in my heart, I have gradually wanted to understand some things.

If his expectations are not bad, the artwork collected by the Xu family's father and daughter should be illegal.

There are many waste search teams in the satellite city, and this is the type of work with the highest income in Qinggang City today, but the risk is also relatively high.

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

There are also many types of waste search teams, and the forms of formation are even more diverse.

Some are entrusted by the Qinggang City Administration Office, and some are entrusted by some companies, or some big personalities.

The waste search team that the father and daughter said was to help them collect all kinds of art

From the conversation recounted by my sister just now, you should be able to guess that the waste search team got something that their father and daughter wanted, so Mr. Xu's daughter Xu Xiaoxiao went to receive it, but when they got there, they found that The search team had all died, and at the scene, they found a painting that was not originally in their collection plan, but she still brought it back.

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

In this way, it makes sense.

As this Mr. Xu said, the main city is very heavily defended, and it is difficult for any special pollution sources to enter the main city from the outside world, and his daughter has no chance to come into contact with these special pollution sources. Then, how could she be polluted? what about

The reason is very simple, of course, she came into contact with her when she was out of town...

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

Mr. Xu, who was leaning on crutches, appeared at the door. He looked a little nervous, but he hid it well. He smiled and nodded to Lu Xin, saying, "Thanks to Mr. Soldier this time, the little girl has recovered, but it's just that the little girl has recovered. She is still very weak now. In order to give her better care, I am going to take her back to the main city overnight to recuperate... And this time, I will definitely... "

Lu Xin glanced at it, and across the open door, he could see Xu Xiaoxiao leaning on the sofa.

She has just been cured and should be in a state of extreme mental exhaustion, but she has been looking out nervously.

Her eyes gave people a faintly fearful, but extremely greedy feeling.

Shaking his head slightly, Lu Xin said, "It's not the time to get paid yet."

Mr. Xu was slightly startled, and hesitantly said: "Mr. Shan Bing means..."

"Your business hasn't really been resolved yet!"

Lu Xin said: "The pollution source has not been dealt with, how can I collect money now."

"This… "

Mr. Xu looked at Lu Xin's sincere face, slightly surprised, paused for a moment, and then smiled softly: "Hehe, thank you Mr. Shan Bing for your kindness, but I don't think you need to be so troublesome, I asked carefully just now. Little girl, she has never been exposed to anything strange, just because she was under too much pressure before, so she had such a rebellious experience..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Shan Bing, this is the end of the matter. Even if there is a problem, I will not blame you."

After speaking for a while, he said again: "When Mr. Shan Bing reports, he can write like this, there will be no problem!"

Hearing his words, the fat manager Liu on the side was also a little strange.

He hurriedly interjected with a smile and said, "Since Mr. Xu said so, then the entrustment can end here..."

Then he turned to Lu Xin: "This time's reward..."

Listening to their words, Lu Xin frowned slightly.

The sister on the side appeared silently behind Mr. Xu, hung upside down on the door frame, swayed to Lu Xin with a smile: "Brother, they discussed just now that they would secretly hide the picture by her. The oil painting, I took it back to do research..."

"She said the painting was of great value and must not be known to others..."

"… "

Lu Xin frowned slightly.

Facing the smiling faces of Mr. Xu and Fatty Manager Liu, he slowly shook his head: "That's impossible."

"Work must be taken seriously."

Then he raised his head, the lights around the villa shone high on his face, making his face different in shades of light, and the eyes in the shadow looked over quietly, with a strangely serious expression, saying: "Since I have accepted your entrustment and received your money, of course, I will completely solve it for you, whether it is the polluted person or the source of pollution."

"In the previous contract, it was written very clearly, and if it was completely cured, there was only a reward of 100,000 yuan, wasn't it?"

"… "

The atmosphere became a little more subtle.

Both Mr. Xu and Fatty Manager Liu looked a little stunned, and felt that there was something wrong with the interpretation of this contract.

And Lu Xin looked at them quietly.

He couldn't figure it out, he knew that it was these dangerous things, but he still wanted to lie and hide it secretly...

"All Worlds"

Are the Xu family's father and daughter insane
