Evening, 8 pm.
Northern District. Outside a villa district.
Dong Xuebing alighted from a taxi and called Xie Hao.
"Xiao Hao, it's me. Do you know where Wei Nan's villa is?"
"Eh, Brother Dong, why are you asking me this? I thought you had gone back to the Party School."
"I need your help. Can you tell me which villa is in the northern district and how many buildings are there?"
"My sister and the rest had gone back, and I am not sure. Oh, it should be No. 11. I remember my sister had mentioned it once, but I don't know how many buildings it is."
"Ok. Thank you."
"Brother Dong, are you going to look for Wei Nan?"
"Yes. I want to warn him to stay away from your sister."
"Haha … I should give him a warning. That idiot had run away when my Sis got into trouble. He even went to my Sis's house several times. Brother Dong, I support you. But don't hit her too hard. Wei Nan might not be able to take your beatings." "That's right.
"Why should I hit him? Are you trying to stir up trouble?"
"Damn! If you don't hit him, what kind of warning is that?"
"I know what I am doing. Alright … I am hanging up."
"Brother Dong, you can do it! Teach him a lesson!"
Dong Xuebing smiled and hung up. This Xiao Hao only knows how to fight and kill every day. Hmmm … But Dong Xuebing is not in a position to criticize him. Since Dong Xuebing entered the government service, he had fought his way up. Dong Xuebing kept his phone and looked at the few neighborhoods in front of him. He walked briskly and after about 10 minutes, he found the No. 11 neighborhood. It is a high-class villa district, and there are guards guarding the entrance 24 hours a day. Without an entry pass, one cannot enter. But Dong Xuebing has his ways.
STOP！
Time stopped!
Dong Xuebing had worked in the State Security and Public Security for a long time, and he is familiar with such things. He walked out from the shadows and walked past two security guards into the estate. After he walked past two security cameras, he muttered STOP to disarm the security guards!
Time returned to normal!
The district is not small and is several times bigger than Beijing's Party Committee quarters.
Dong Xuebing stood in the courtyard and looked around. He walked around the left side of the building and finally found his target in the south. It's a charred villa, and the main body of the villa was burnt black. Even the garage and lawn were not spared. It looks like a ruin, but the building is still standing, and the structure is considered stable.
This is the place!
This is Wei Nan's house!
Dong Xuebing looked around. There is some distance between the villas. That's why the fire ten days ago did not affect the surrounding villas. Now, no one in the surrounding villas will notice Dong Xuebing, and it's convenient for Dong Xuebing. Dong Xuebing made up his mind and walked towards the main gate. The door was closed, and it was badly burned. There were some remnants of the fire extinguisher beside the door. Dong Xuebing looked towards the west and climbed into the house through a broken window.
A burning smell assaulted his nostrils. It was very unpleasant.
Dong Xuebing pinched his nose and started searching the living room. Nothing. He went up to the second floor and searched room by room.
Ten minutes later.
Finally, a safe box caught Dong Xuebing's attention.
The safe was placed next to the bed in the bedroom. It was a slightly deformed and had been sawed open by a chainsaw. The safe door was half closed and half open.
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and went over to open the safe. He saw a pile of ash.
This black ash formed the mark of a scroll. It was condensed and did not disperse, as if it had not been touched by anyone. It still maintained its original appearance. Dong Xuebing was overjoyed. He was afraid someone might damage the contents of the painting. But it looks so well preserved. As long as Dong Xuebing does not need anything, he can restore this painting to its original state!
Let's try!
I hope it works!
Dong Xuebing is afraid something might be missing from the pile of ash and did not touch it. He only covered it with his hand and narrowed his eyes to focus.
REVERSE！
One second …
Two seconds …
Three seconds …
Dong Xuebing had accumulated a lot of time during the days he was buried under the rubble and resting. He has about 20 minutes left, and it's more than enough!
Slowly, the black ash gradually condensed together. Some of the fine dust that had fallen to the side also quickly gathered into the shape of the scroll. The color began to change, from black to gray, from gray to white. The plastic scrolls that had been baked gradually solidified as well. After a dozen or so seconds, the painting that had been burnt to ashes immediately became brand new. With a blink of an eye, it returned to its original appearance from a dozen or so days ago, when it had not been burnt!
Reverse unlocked!
Dong Xuebing quickly took out the painting from the safe and looked at it. He spread it out on the floor and saw Xu Yang's painting. It's perfect, and there is not a single flaw on the paper. It's a beautiful painting!
Got it!
Everything is going smoothly!
Dong Xuebing, who was wearing the gloves, was excited. He quickly picks up a pile of ashes and kept it in the safe. After that, he took off his gloves and kept the painting in his arms. He looked around and quickly ran down the stairs. He jumped out of the window he came in from.
It was dark and windy.
Dong Xuebing used the same trick and used STOP to bypass the security guards' line of sight.
From the beginning to the end, the estate was quiet, and no one noticed Dong Xuebing's presence.
It's getting late, and it's not easy to flag a taxi. Dong Xuebing walked for about 1 kilometer and waited for a taxi on the road. He was in a good mood.
Suddenly, a BMW 7 Series drove over and braked in front of Dong Xuebing.
The car window was wound down from the inside, and Wei Nan's handsome face appeared. "Dong Xuebing? Ha, why are you here? "
Dong Xuebing looked at him and laughed. "Do I need to report to you where I am going?"
Wei Nan had wanted to return to the villa to take a look. He wants to arrange for the renovations and get the workers to restore the villa to its original state. After all, this is a 10 million RMB property. But he saw Dong Xuebing nearby. He had been thinking about Xie Huilan and hated Dong Xuebing to the core. If it wasn't for Dong Xuebing, Xie Huilan might be married to him now.
Wei Nan sneered. "How is your Auction House's female boss now?"
Auction House's boss? Dong Xuebing knew Wei Nan is talking about Qu Yunxuan. Wei Nan had seen him and Qu Yunxuan being intimate, and he had taken a picture with his phone. He had sent it to Yan Tai County's Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Dong Xuebing almost fell out with Xie Huilan. In the end, Xie Huilan was tied up by a time bomb. Dong Xuebing still remembers this, and Wei Nan still dares to mention this!
Dong Xuebing asked. "You have a lot of things to worry about."
Wei Nan laughed. "Huilan's problems are also my problems. I must let Huilan see your true colors and not choose the wrong person."
"Thank you for your concern. But Huilan knows about me and Yunxuan. You are the one who sent the picture to her."
Wei Nan's eyes turned cold. "How much does she know?"
"She knows everything." Dong Xuebing replied. "Let me tell you. If a woman likes a man, she will let him do whatever he wants and understand him. For example, Huilan and I. But if that woman doesn't like you, even if you're late for a second, she'll still fall out with you. To put it bluntly, it's because the relationship isn't that deep. " Dong Xuebing understood why Xie Huilan treated him so well. They were dating in the past, but Xie Huilan did not fuss over Aunt Xuan's relationship. Dong Xuebing felt guilty and was determined to give Xie Huilan a surprise marriage proposal.
They did not get along.
Dong Xuebing and Dong Xuebing did not exchange a few words, and they went their separate ways.
Dong Xuebing did not return to the Party School or go home. He took a taxi to Yun De Auction Company, which is the auction house that Aunt Xuan had just sold.
… …
Yun De Auction Company.
An office.
Dong Xuebing and a woman in her thirties were standing face to face and shaking hands.
"Nice to meet you. I am Dong Xuebing, Yunxuan's friend."
"I know you. Yunxuan had mentioned you more than once." The woman laughed. "Are you here for something? I have known Yunxuan for seven to eight years, and I will surely help her. "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "I heard the Autumn Auction will start in two days. I have something that I want to auction and appraise. Is it convenient? "
"No problem. Is it with you?"
"Yes." Dong Xuebing took out a painting and showed it to the woman.
The woman was stunned when she saw the painting. "Xu Yang's painting?"
"Yes."
"Wait a minute. I will get a few experts to appraise it." The woman's face turned serious and immediately made a few calls. After that, she called over two experts who had gone home to rest. This is a painting that might be worth more than 100 million, and she must treat it seriously.
After a while, all the experts were gathered.
Dong Xuebing sipped on his tea while waiting for the results. He was not sure if this painting was fake or not.
But soon, the expert's report gave Dong Xuebing peace of mind.
An expert in his fifties nodded to the woman. "No problem. This is Xu Yang's authentic painting."
The woman looked at the other expert worriedly.
That person also praised, "It's rare, too rare. I also have the same conclusion. It's an authentic work, so it shouldn't be wrong. The estimated value should be between 80 million and 100 million."
Dong Xuebing smiled. "That's it? I will entrust this painting to you all, and I want to auction it as soon as possible. "
