Chapter 1277 Painter

Athens, Greece.

Gao Yang and the others all left Ukraine, leaving only Downey Jr. in Kiev. Unless there was a successor, Downey Jr. would have to stay in Kiev until a reliable transportation line was established.

According to the address given by Yake, Gao Yang and Irene searched all the way and found a very historical house on a very old street.

The reason why Gao Yang takes Irene with him everywhere is not because Irene is a woman, but because Irene can speak the most languages, especially in Europe. Although Greek is not a language that Irene is proficient in, basic communication is still possible. , so Gao Yang could only take Irene with him.

He looked up at the house number and whispered in a low voice, "Yes, it's right here."

Erin shrugged: "A store?"

"Yes, it's a store."

Suffering from the economic crisis, the situation in Greece is not good, and the public security has also greatly deteriorated. Athens has also escaped the same situation. As a tourist city, the double blow caused by the deterioration of the economy and the deterioration of public security is simply fatal.

There is a window and a door with iron rolling shutters on the outside. The rolling shutters still look very new. It seems that they were newly installed not long ago. In the past, rolling shutters or iron railings were rarely seen in shops in Athens, but since then After Greece's economic collapse, selling rolling shutters and iron railings may be the only hot business.

Gao Yang raised his hand and patted the rolling shutter door a few times. After waiting for a while, there was no movement. He reached out and patted it a few more times, and then heard a woman inside saying something loudly.

Erin whispered: "She asked who it was."

"Tell her we're here to find someone."

After Erin said something loudly. The sound of the door opening soon came from inside, and then, someone pulled up the rolling shutter door from inside.

As the rolling shutter was pulled up, a woman appeared in front of Gao Yang and the others. She had black hair and looked in her thirties. Although she was wearing home clothes, she was well dressed. Although there are some signs of aging on the face, it is very beautiful and looks very elegant.

Seeing Gao Yang and Irene, the woman inside nodded and whispered in English: "Please come in, Yak is waiting for you upstairs."

Gao Yang took a look and saw that there were sculptures in the store. There are oil paintings hanging on the walls.

It turns out to be a gallery rather than an ordinary store.

This surprised Gao Yang, and Irene also seemed very surprised. She couldn't help but said: "Is this a gallery?"

The woman smiled and said: "Yes, this is a gallery. There was a sign outside, but it was taken down after it was smashed and never reinstalled. Let me introduce myself. My name is Christina Papulia. , the owner of this store.”

After Gao Yang and Irene shook hands with Christina one by one, Christina raised her hand to face the wall with the most paintings and said with a smile: "I mainly sell neoclassical paintings, and the same goes for sculptures, mainly marble sculptures, but the style is the same. It’s mainly neoclassicism.”

Gao Yang didn't know what neoclassicism was. He could only nod his head and said: "It's very good. I like it very much."

Christina smiled. He whispered: "I'm sorry, you can only go back and visit carefully. I have to close the door now, Yake is still waiting for you."

Only then did Gao Yang understand. Christina didn't open the rolling shutter door to leave light for them to see the paintings inside, so he quickly said: "Oh, please lower the door."

Christina put down the roller shutter, then smiled at the two of them and said, "Please follow me."

There was a staircase leading to the second floor. Christina walked in front and led the two of them upstairs.

The first floor is a gallery, and on the second floor, the largest room upstairs is a painting studio.

There are many easels on which canvases are placed in the studio. A man is sitting in front of the window, looking at the scene outside the window and swaying his brush on the canvas.

Seeing the man who was painting, Gao Yang understood why it was not Yake who picked them up, because Yake was busy, painting.

Hearing the footsteps, Yake said without looking back: "Are you here? Leonard is lying on the bed in the house. You can go in directly to see him, or you can watch me painting here."

Gao Yang said stupidly: "Jacques, I didn't know you were a painter!"

Yake didn't know what to do and said, "Do I have any hobbies that I need to tell you?"

Seeing Yake's words halfway through the painting, Gao Yang couldn't help but said: "You can obviously make a living by painting, why do you still..., forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."

The picture shows Christina sitting with her back to the window with a smile on her face, her smile is very happy and sweet, and what Yak is doing is drawing the scenery outside the window into the blank space.

Gao Yang doesn't know how to tell whether a painting is good or bad. His criterion is that if it is an oil painting, the more similar the painting is, the better. And Yake's paintings are very similar to the real scene, so Gao Yang thinks that Yake's paintings are very similar to the real scene. Ke painted very well.

Yak waved his hand and said, "Go and chat with Leonard. You don't see me busy."

Gao Yang shrugged, and after turning around, he saw Christina pointing to the door on his left and smiling: "He's inside."

After nodding his thanks to Christina, Gao Yang reached out and knocked on the door, then pushed the door open and entered.

No. 13 was lying on the bed. When he saw Gao Yang and Irene entering, he looked excited and said anxiously: "You are finally here. Close the door and hurry up."

Eileen closed the door behind her, Gao Yang walked to No. 13's bed and smiled: "Man, how do you feel?"

No. 13 had a ghostly look on his face and said loudly: "It's terrible! Really, I feel terrible!"

Gao Yang smiled and said: "You're injured, of course it won't feel good."

No. 13 said excitedly: "No! I feel terrible having to stay here! God, take me away quickly, take me away quickly."

Eileen smiled and said: "It's very nice here, it's so artistic."

No. 13 said with a look of grief and anger: "Bah! Artistic atmosphere? Damn artistic atmosphere! They regard me as a model! I can't move and lie here and be painted by them. I can bear it! But I can't stand them both. The scene in front of me is so disgusting that it makes me want to vomit! And what they said, are you deaf? Didn’t you hear how disgusting their conversation was? Every day, two people like this say disgusting love words in front of you. He draws around you and attacks you with words. He is too thin here and his muscles are too developed. In short, it is not in line with the artistic beauty of the human body. How can you bear it?"

Gao Yang and Irene looked at each other, then Gao Yang shrugged and smiled at No. 13: "As an artist, uh, um, how did Yak rescue you?"

No. 13 took an angry breath and said: "I don't know, I fainted after calling you. When I woke up, I was already in Abu Dhabi. I admit that Yake is very powerful. If it had been anyone else, I would have been there." I know this even if I die, but damn! I won’t let him save me next time even if I die, do you hear that? Bastard!"

Yak shouted outside: "Shut up, you ungrateful guy, I heard you clearly."

Gao Yang spread his hands helplessly, then smiled at No. 13: "I have never seen you so excited, man, you are relieved now, um, how is your recovery?"

No. 13 said with a gloomy look: "Fortunately, I have recovered well. Now I can get out of bed, and I can also move slowly in a short period of time, but it will take half a month to fully recover at the earliest." .”

Gao Yang lowered his voice, pointed to the closed door and said, "Does she know everything?"

No. 13 shook her head and whispered: "I don't know, that stupid woman is in love. After seeing me, she may have guessed something but refused to face the reality, so she has been avoiding knowing anyone who knows about Yak." An opportunity for identity, huh, this silly woman who has been carried away by love!"

Gao Yang sat down next to No. 13, then lowered his voice and said, "How is your sister? Do you think she is still alive?"

No. 13 shook his head and whispered helplessly: "I don't know, I can't judge, and I don't want to make random guesses without evidence."

Gao Yang nodded, and then whispered: "What do you think of Yake?"

After being silent for a long time, No. 13 whispered: "A shameless and perverted bastard, but reliable and very powerful. If you want him to be your intelligence officer, I can't think of a more suitable candidate than him." "

He knew the elegant meaning by hearing the sound of the string. As soon as Gao Yang opened his mouth, No. 13 knew what he meant, so he gave his answer directly.

But after finishing speaking, No. 13 said with a gloomy face: "It's just that this guy is in love now. If you plan to let him work for you for a long time, become Satan's full-time intelligence officer or take on some other position, I guess you will be disappointed. Besides, you paid him a large sum of money to save me, and now he doesn’t even have the excuse of being short of money."

No. 13 had considered all aspects, and Gao Yang had nothing to ask. He did intend to officially recruit Yake under his command, but it seemed that this possibility was already very small.

Gao Yang spread his hands and said: "Let's not talk about Yake. Now let me talk about things related to you. Let me remind you first, you have to be careful not to get too excited, especially not to make any violent movements. "

No. 13 took a deep breath and said, "I'm ready, just tell me."

Gao Yang said in a deep voice: "I found Sukhalitan, I know where he is, and I'm going to see him again soon."

The look on No. 13's face was extremely excited, but he didn't move at all. Even when he spoke, he was as calm as ever. As a killer, No. 13's self-control ability is absolutely superb.

"Where? When are you going to see him?"

"Austria, St. Anton Ski Resort, should still be there now, but no matter where he is, I can see him."

No. 13 took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Very good, think of a way, I will go with you to see him."

Gao Yang did not reply immediately to No. 13. He just felt that as a killer, No. 13 was always calm and calm, even to the point of indifference, and bullied No. 13 to the point where he could not stay calm and even lost his mind. How capable Yak must be. (To be continued.)
