Vera started to look around the room carefully.
Because it was daytime, the lighting was good and she could even see every detail of the room … But at this time, she heard the voice of the mysterious guy in front of her.
"Miss Vera, the lawn is behind the window on the left, and the road is behind. Now there is no one, so it should be the best time to leave the manor. "
"I don't know what you are talking about. Vera? Who is Vera? "
The voice from the clown mask was calm and steady — because it was made by the voice changer in the mask.
Just like that night.
Today, this mysterious fellow had directly seen through her identity. Therefore, she didn't let her body incline to the left for convenience, but slightly to the right.
"The place where the dogs are kept is on the right side of the manor. It seems that Miss Vera thinks I am lying to you? "The club boss shook his head," I don't need to lie to you. "
"That's funny, will anyone believe the words of an unknown person?"
"That's right."
Luoqiu nodded, "For Miss Vera, we don't trust each other at present. How about this? I don't want to have any accidents in this auction, so I want to ask Miss Vera to leave here, or go back to your original place and participate in the activity as a guest. "
"Since you said that we don't trust each other …" Vera sneered.
She walked casually in the room — to the right side, and said, "Why do I need to satisfy your wish? Besides, why do you want to ensure that this auction will go on normally? What is the relationship between you and the owner of this manor? What exactly do you want to do? "
"Sorry, I can't tell you about this."
Luoqiu said indifferently, "Miss Vera, just think of it as some after-sales service. So, I hope Miss Vera won't bring me trouble. "
"Oh? Really? But for me, ever since I was young, I've always given people the impression that I'm trouble. So … I'm sorry! "
Vera's tone suddenly sped up, and her body began to sprint toward the window on the right! Her legs kicked hard, and then her body rushed to the window. Her hands quickly pushed the window open, and then she turned over and jumped out.
Her posture was as smooth as floating clouds and flowing water, like a diver jumping off a high platform.
Luoqiu shook his head, looking at the servant girl, and asked curiously, "I was just about to ask her to run to the right, do you think she will run to the left?"
You Ye smiled slightly, "I think this lady is not in the mood to think about this kind of thing."
Luoqiu walked to the window, looking down, and whispered, "I think so.
…
Damn it, bastard, damn it!!
Vera had no choice but to repeat the malicious abuse in her heart over and over again.
How could this be?
She had clearly chosen the right side and landed perfectly. Both of these actions should have allowed her to leave easily.
But why was it like this?
Why was this place really a place where wolfhounds were kept?
And it wasn't just one … but eight huge wolfhounds.
Front and back, left and right, she was obviously surrounded by these well-trained big guys!
The inside of the hood, which was already stuffy, began to become even more moist. Facing eight dogs, Vera couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat — Maybe dealing with these dogs at the same time was not a suicidal act, but it would definitely expose her behavior.
She had no choice but to raise her head and look at the window on the second floor that she had pushed open … She looked at the hateful guy who looked like he was watching a show and shrugged, "I think we should fix the relationship of mistrust between the two sides."
"Let's go back." Luo Qiu said softly.
The eight ferocious wolf dogs immediately turned around and ran away like domestic cats without barking. Vera subconsciously asked, "Are you a circus's beast tamer?"
Boss Luo suddenly said, "The auction is about to start. If Miss Vera doesn't want to leave, can you join me?"
"I don't seem to have a choice?" Vera shrugged.
She directly untied the hood on her face, fanning the wind and said, "How do you know my identity?"
"I think, if I don't know this …" Luoqiu said softly, "We are not qualified to say that we can serve Miss Vera. Let's go, I think Miss Vera needs to change back to your original clothes before joining the auction. "
At the same time, the window on the second floor suddenly opened — At the moment when the window opened, Vera saw Vicar — her assistant was surprised.
"You're back? So fast? "
Looking at Vicar's surprised expression, Vera subconsciously looked up … The window had been closed.
What happened?
The route she memorized a day ago seemed to be completely messed up — After going around in circles, she actually returned to the original starting point?
"Is there anything upstairs?" Vicar poked his head out and looked upstairs at the same time.
Vera took a deep breath and said, "Go back to the room and change your clothes. Let's go to the auction."
"…"
So, what's the meaning of going out??
Vicar's face was full of confusion.
But Vera had quickly climbed through the window, then walked into the room and quickly changed her original clothes. Vera pulled the zipper at the back of her skirt while looking at herself in the mirror — The route she took in the manor when she left the room appeared in her mind again.
She believed that she had a good memory. Even though the manor was huge, she still had the confidence to reconstruct the composition in her mind.
Suddenly, Vera pressed her hands on the basin, and her eyes approached the mirror.
Her eyes suddenly changed, turning into blue … cone-shaped pupils.
"I didn't go wrong … but why is there such a huge difference between the real scene and the composition?"
It was too mysterious … as if it was an unsolvable puzzle!
Oh! God, as a magician, Vera swore that she must unravel the mystery.
Vera's body suddenly seemed to be extremely tired, almost lying on the basin. She took a deep breath and washed her face. She wanted to calm down.
She knew that she overused her brain power, so she had to stop this intense brain power.
But at this time, there was an inexplicable idea in her mind: That guy is more like a magician than me.
…
…
It was similar to a tea party — in this palace-like room.
"Sorry, sorry. Sorry to keep you waiting for a long time. "
Urey had exposed his appearance in the hotel last time, but at the beginning of today, he also wore a half mask to cover his face.
But no one paid attention to his action. This was because as Yuri walked in, two men behind him were moving an object that was covered with a white cloth.
Today's theme … what was this thing? It was obvious!
"I believe that everyone must be wondering why I have a copy of 'The Nameless Maiden' in my hand." Urey glanced at the people present.
He saw the boss of the club sitting quietly in the corner. But there were two more people beside Luoqiu. But he didn't care about these.
The time he had didn't allow him to think about these things.
At the moment when the white cloth was lifted, the scene almost made the same low exclamation.
"Unbelievable."
An old man gathered in front of this painting at this time. He held a small magnifying glass in his hand, and now he was immersed in observing.
In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that someone was guarding this image, he would have reached out to touch its texture.
"Everything can be faked, but this technique can't fool people … This is indeed 'Ivan Nikolaevich'. It's true that this is Ivan Nikolaevich's authentic work! I've been chasing his works for almost half a world!! I can't be wrong! "
"This is the real 'The Nameless Maiden'?"
"Then the one in the hotel last time …"
"Wasn't it obtained by F&C? Why did it appear in Typica's house? Is F&C a member of Typica's family? But … who exactly was the person in the hotel that night? "
"I'm more concerned about the price of this painting! Don't talk nonsense, we're here for this painting today! As long as it's real, I'm willing to pay any price! "
Edgar found the atmosphere was almost there, so he stood up and said slowly, "You know, this painting is priceless. So there's no final conclusion about its value. So we don't intend to set a price for it. The auction will officially start after the first guest bids. "
Mr. Butler smiled and said, "Of course, the one who can suppress everyone will become the new owner of this heirloom treasure. So, everyone, what are you waiting for? "
"I'll bid one million!"
In an instant, a slightly plump guest sitting near the center of the table called out the price. However, when he saw that almost everyone was looking at him, he could only add, "Euros …"
"This gentleman bid one million Euros." Edgar nodded and said indifferently, "First time."
"No need to bother."
Suddenly, in another corner, a huge man stood up and said in a low voice, "250 million Euros. Whoever wants a painting with a higher price can take it! "
