Chapter 104 Bronze Ring (4100) (Please Read On)
"Hello."
Kaxiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Hello." Violet's voice was very cold.
The back door of the car opened, and Kaxiu sat in it, with his arms around his chest. His eyes looked at Violet's back in the passenger seat intentionally or unintentionally, of course not because she had a graceful figure and outstanding appearance, but because he could feel the murderous aura on her.
This murderous aura was not directed at him, but a kind of aura that had naturally formed over the years. Kaxiu's perception of mutation was very sharp, so he could detect this hidden breath.
Obviously, this Violet was not Matthew's mistress or secretary, but a bodyguard. According to Kaxiu's guess, this woman should be related to Spade A...
The Sand Dust Organization once assassinated Phil, but failed because Kaxiu was next to him. They obviously would not just give up, and the actions against Conan Company were mostly still going on in the dark. This woman codenamed Violet was probably sent by the Spade A organization to protect Ma Xiu, the general manager of Conan Company...
The car started and soon drove into the wide street.
The place they were going to was the city museum in the central district.
There were no accidents along the way, about ten minutes later.
Kaxiu got out of the car and raised his hand to block the sun and looked at it. This was a gray-white rectangular square. Surrounded by circular flower beds with flowers and plants, there were street lights on the side. In the center was a circular white stone fountain, and the tiles were shining white in the sun. On the stone platform in the center of the fountain, there was also a five or six-meter-high bronze statue of the first mayor of Shirakawa City.
On the black bench next to it, citizens would sit here from time to time to chat in the sun, or take out bread crumbs to feed pigeons.
With two bangs, the car door closed.
Ma Xiu and Violet also got off from it.
One was handsome and elegant, the other was beautiful and delicate, and they looked like a couple. Kaxiu next to him was more like a bodyguard.
"Let's go, let's go in and take a look."
While talking, Matthew took out a black invitation from his arms, and the edge of the invitation was also surrounded by a circle of light golden edging.
As the three people just took a step, a security guard in blue clothes came over. Seeing the invitation in Matthew's hand, he hurried over and asked about his identity and said that he would send his men to stand guard next to him to prevent Matthew's luxury car from being scratched.
Then he looked at the three people respectfully as they left.
Obviously, this was not an antique exhibition at all, but an exchange meeting for the upper class. Even the museum security guards were flattering. Such enthusiasm must have been given by the White Rose Company.
Walking along the white stone road and making a few turns. A square museum appeared in front of everyone. It was built very tall, with large pieces of transparent glass next to it. A blue carpet was laid all the way from the inside to the outside at the entrance.
There were about a dozen or twenty security guards in blue uniforms walking around, some of them holding rubber sticks in their hands.
"Matthew?"
"Avel?"
"Long time no see!"
"Yes, long time no see!"
A young man in a suit and tie came up to the door. He also held a black invitation to attend the antique exhibition, and he seemed to be Matthew's friend.
"Didn't you go to Donghai County with your father to do business? When did you come back?" Matthew was also a little happy.
"The rubber business there is not easy to do. My father stayed there to run the branch company and asked me to go back to Beiliu County to deal with the affairs of the head office. I have been so busy recently that I have no time to have tea with you. Today I just have time to attend the White Rose Antique Exhibition. I didn't expect to meet you." Avel smiled.
"That's perfect, let's go together." Matthew smiled.
It is obvious that the relationship between the two is not ordinary. They may not be ordinary friends. Most of them are friends who have been playing together since childhood.
"Who are these two?"
Avel glanced at Violet and Kaxiu next to him.
"Oh, we are all friends, and we are going to visit the antique exhibition together." Matthew introduced: "This is Violet, and this is Li Wei."
The four chatted at the door for three or four minutes, and then walked towards the door of the city museum together. After checking the invitation, they walked into the venue along the passage without any obstruction.
The interior of the museum is very spacious, and the White Rose Antique Company and the museum have coordinated. The city museum temporarily lent the exhibition hall on the west side to the White Rose Company to open a theme antique exhibition for a period of time, and the White Rose Company had to pay a large sum of money.
But they are rich, and what stands out is a style.
The Baichuan City Museum has the best location, the largest area, and the most complete facilities. The brand of the White Rose Antique Exhibition must be chosen here. If it is a small place, it will be so embarrassing.
It is too unpresentable, and the upper class will not come.
"Hey, Mr. Matthew."
"Matthew is here?"
As soon as everyone walked into the exhibition hall, some people who were already in the hall looked over. Kangnan Company is a big company in Baichuan City, and the profit from doing wine business is particularly amazing these days.
Naturally, Matthew's status would not be low either.
He immediately showed a perfect smile and walked over with an elegant temperament. Avel and Violet also followed him.
Only the tall and strong Kaxiu was left standing there.
Matthew had already told him that the White Rose Antique Exhibition was a place for Matthew to build connections. Kaxiu could look around for the time being, and when the antique exhibition ended in the morning, Matthew would ask the organizer for Kaxiu.
After all, in principle, the goods on display cannot be sold for the time being, otherwise what will the upper class see later?
Slowly looking around the exhibition hall, the architectural layout of the city museum is indeed vast. Kaxiu is now standing in a main hall, supported by marble columns. On the gray-black floor, there is a high counter at intervals.
Above the counter are collections covered with glass covers.
At a glance, there are at least hundreds of pieces in the main hall.
And there are many passages on the left and right sides, leading to the theme side halls. For example, a living room is full of antiques such as oil paintings and landscapes, and there are also antiques such as porcelain bottles.
The collections brought by the White Rose Antique Company are probably more than those of the Shirakawa City Museum. It is worthy of being a large company.
Kaxiu walked to the side quickly and walked along the counter on the edge. A dozen meters ahead, a beautiful girl wearing a metal nameplate on her chest and a black dress was introducing the story of the collection in the glass cover to the people around her.
"Miss, is there an exhibition hall for ancient coins here?"
"Sorry, sir, there is no special exhibition hall. The currency collections are placed in the same exhibition hall as the sculpture collections and landscape paintings. If you want to take a look, just go to the third side hall." The girl had a professional smile on her face.
"Thank you." Kaxiu immediately walked over with a clear goal.
He soon entered a side hall, and the walls of this hall were hung with landscape paintings. There were also introduction papers under the picture frames, indicating the painter's era background and price.
In front of the landscape paintings were collections covered by glass covers, and Kaxiu's eyes moved as he moved. He soon found what he wanted to see, a rectangular exhibition stand next to a marble column, with antique coins evenly arranged in the glass cover.
The sun shone on the table, and the crown logo on the surface of the coin was very conspicuous, with a crooked cross above the crown.
There was also a coin with the reverse side placed on the table next to it.
The word fifty was displayed on the surface of the coin.
That's right, the crown cross. One hundred and fifty years ago, in the northern part of the Red Lebanese Federation, a bloody revolution broke out in the Principality of Ryant. Emperor Wally IV was pushed onto the guillotine, and the crowd at the time threw a lot of coins, which were stained with blood.
The introduction next to the counter was similar to what my father said.
Kaxiu glanced at the counter and then at the people next to him. There were relatively few people in this venue, and the only three or four people were also admiring the landscape paintings on the wall. After he made sure that no one was watching him, he gently tapped the bottom of the glass cover with his right hand.
Dong, a dull and light sound.
Kaxiu's finger was like a bullet, opening a gap between the glue connecting the glass cover and the table. For a moment, a bitter air flow continued to flow out of the gap. Kaxiu's eyes lit up, and then he silently retracted his right hand.
Unfortunately, the glass cover and the platform are very tightly connected. If you want to open it, you must take down the entire glass cover. Otherwise, he must first absorb the obsession energy in the Crown Cross.
Then consider buying coins for collection later.
After looking around and finding that no one was watching him at all. Kaxiu tried to copy it bit by bit.
His body control was amazing, and he could control it freely. His fingers could easily peck a gap in the yellow glue layer like an electric drill, without having to work on the entire glass cover.
In addition, the sound was light and the movements were concealed. In just five or six minutes, he visited all the platforms in this side hall. Unfortunately, there were no obsession antiques here.
So, Kaxiu's target was cast on other side halls.
He thought that this method would be difficult to detect flaws. There were no cameras here, and people around him could not notice Kaxiu's small movements. Moreover, even if he was discovered, what would happen? He just touched the corners of the glass cover and did not move the antiques inside. The collection has been well placed on the platform.
In this way, Kaxiu was more confident and moved faster.
It was quite efficient to search five side halls in a short time.
But, there was still no harvest.
This also made Kaxiu a little frustrated. Such a large White Rose Antique Exhibition could not find the second obsession antique besides the Crown Cross. Wouldn't it be like looking for a needle in a haystack for his own obsession antiques later? Then he could only rely on luck?
No matter how helpless he was, he still had to keep looking.
Finally, in the second-to-last wing, wing number nine.
In the corner, Kaxiu's body shook slightly.
He tutted his lips and lowered his head. Inside the glass cover was a bronze ring, roughly made and quite ugly.
But, this is an obsession antique!
The bitter taste in Kaxiu's mouth had already told him the answer.
Taking a deep breath, Kaxiu wrote down the location information of this counter and then walked to the last venue.
Five minutes later, he returned to the main hall.
In the spacious hall, upper-class people in suits and leather shoes walked back and forth, chatting and holding hot tea in their hands. There were also some handsome and beautiful young men and women who gathered together to walk around and look around, and their clothes and temperament were not bad.
And the ones who really looked like collectors were only a dozen bald middle-aged or old men. Wearing a very casual light yellow shirt and a pair of reading glasses, they walked and stopped.
Basically, they didn't chat with people, but only focused on the collection.
Kaxiu followed suit, starting from one corner of the counter and groping his way to other places step by step.
He was hunched over, silent and withdrawn.
Naturally, the people around him would not make themselves look bad. When Kaxiu came over, they would stand sideways and continue chatting with their friends. Kaxiu, on the other hand, would lie on the platform and poke at the edge with his fingers.
With a bang, he could tell the authenticity in a few seconds.
Because there were many collections in the main hall and the crowds were dense, Kaxiu was more cautious. He often pretended to be indifferent at first, and then suddenly leaned forward when the surrounding eyes moved away.
So it took him half an hour to finish the search.
"This entire White Rose Antique Exhibition is not even as good as the antique transport vehicle of the Sand Dust Organization..." Kaxiu couldn't help but complain in his heart.
There were only two obsession antiques in this wave.
One was the Crown Cross Star coin that had been confirmed long ago, and the other was the bronze ring in the ninth exhibition hall. Although there were gains, it was hard to say how much gain there would be in the end. The main thing was to see the authenticity of the Crown Cross Star coins. There were more than a hundred in total, and I didn't know how many of them contained obsession energy.
If it's like what Kaxiu did last time, a genuine Crown Cross coin is about 0.2 obsession energy, which is equivalent to the energy contained in half a normal obsession antique. I hope it can be more...
Just as he was thinking, there was a commotion not far away.
"Damn, that bitch dared to hit me?! Fuck her!"
A black-haired young man was covering his left face with anger.
There was a red palm print there.
And opposite him was a slender and cold figure, Matthew bodyguard, the Violet with a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye.
I'm sorry that Kaxiu only remembered this, but the teardrop mole that added the finishing touch is indeed an impressive point.
A few dozen meters away, a bodyguard behind the young man rushed over. There was no thought of sympathizing with women, and he punched Violet's chest directly with a fast and fierce speed and strength.
"Oh? This man has practiced martial arts."
Kaxiu narrowed his eyes as he walked over.
On the other side, Violet took a step back. He stepped sideways and dodged the fist quickly. Then his long, round and tight legs soared and swept sideways, hitting the bodyguard's waist with a snap.
"This Violet also knows some fighting skills, but it doesn't seem to be very high, probably about the third level of fighting skills." Kaxiu walked over leisurely: "The fighting power of the bodyguard sent by the Spade A organization will not be so poor, so she should be more proficient in gun skills."
In the distance, two more bodyguards rushed over behind the young man.
There were three big men in total, each of whom looked to have about two or three levels of fighting skills. At this moment, Violet was surrounded in the middle.
"Damn, I can't bring a gun in, it's troublesome..."
Violet narrowed her narrow eyes with a heavy heart.
Suddenly, a tall figure next to her pushed through the crowd and squeezed in: "Make way."
