Chapter 36: The Toilet
Click, click, click.
A large group of reporters watched and took pictures.
The opening ceremony was more grand than expected, and the reporters from the TV station also rushed over.
Soon it was time for the interview.
"Which of the works selected for this exhibition is your favorite?"
"I heard that most of the art paintings this time are foreign masterpieces, so does it mean that there is still a lack of such world-class works in China?"
"I heard that Master Tom's paper-cut painting was auctioned at a sky-high price, and it was questioned that it was an element of capital operation, and the most valuable work in this exhibition, "Blackboard", was also controversial, how did you appreciate this masterpiece?"
The leaders of the Maritime International Art Center and the diplomats of the U.S. Consulate General at Sea are naturally the focus of news media interviews and photographs.
At this moment, outside the monitoring room.
Wang Lusheng stood in the corridor and silently lit a cigarette, looking at the huge venue and the lively atmosphere outside.
I couldn't help but remember that I hadn't been home for a few days.
I don't know how long I was distracted.
Finally, he came back to his senses in the noise below.
The convention and exhibition center has begun to line up to check tickets to enter the venue, although there are many people, but there is no special explosion.
After all, today is only Friday, and the most people should be the weekend of tomorrow and the next two days.
Those are the two days that really need to be vigilant, no matter from which point of view, the timing of the choice should be the most crowded and chaotic.
When he returned to the monitoring room after smoking, he found that everyone was chatting easily, and even "appreciated" the artwork through the surveillance screen.
"Hey, look at this bowl, it's big and round. ”
"Lying grass, it's really a bit awesome!"
"I think this landscape portrait is the rising sun, and it looks like the afterglow of the sunset!" Su Qing smiled and looked at the "Sunshine in the Rye Field" in the lower right corner of the surveillance.
Xu Fuping knocked on the heads of the two subordinates next to him, and then quipped: "Look at the people, and then look at you, in addition to lying grass and, what do you know!"
"Hahaha!"
Everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After a few minutes, the number of visitors who entered the venue to view the works also increased.
Everyone's eyes and attention returned to these tourists, focusing on those sneaky guys.
After all, for the vast majority of people, a random painting here is enough to make them lose their minds and do stupid things.
Of course, in addition to people with bad intentions, the occurrence of accidents also needs to be monitored. For example, someone set a fire to it, or there was a fight in the venue, which caused damage to a famous painting.
……
Time passed quietly.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Xu Fuping began to order food for everyone.
"Fish-flavored shredded pork!"
"Shiitake mushroom**!"
"Is there fried rice, I want to have a fried rice!"
Chen Dong also ordered a tomato rice bowl, and then walked down the stairs, ready to go to the bathroom for a while.
At the moment when he went downstairs and turned around, he suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly.
Seeing the location of the water dispenser in the far corner of the venue, a man in a hat was pouring water with his back to him, and his instincts told him that this person seemed to have seen it somewhere.
Finally, when the other party leaned sideways, he saw the familiar side face.
Although he wore glasses, it did not affect his judgment at all, that guy was the subordinate of Dong Ergou Winery, Qi Xiaopu.
I have to say that this disguise has played an excellent hiding role.
If I hadn't investigated their case in front of their photos every day, I am afraid that I would not have recognized them in such an instant.
The corners of Chen Dong's mouth rose slightly, so he pretended not to see anything, and walked in the direction of the toilet.
At the same time, however.
Qi Xiaopu, who was drinking water from a disposable cup, also turned around quietly and slowly looked at Chen Dong's back.
He had just noticed that someone was staring at him in the dark.
It's weird to be stared at, and I can't say why, he's like he's naturally sensitive.
And this sixth sense is accurate almost every time it is verified.
Including when he was on the Lincheng drag racing track, Liang Fu stood and secretly looked at himself from a distance, and he felt the same.
Qi Xiaopu's footsteps walked in the direction of the bathroom, and as he walked, he lifted the button out of the collar of his clothes and said, "I saw Chen Dong, he went into the toilet, and I was going to follow." ”
As soon as these words came out, Dong Ergou, who was sitting in the milk tea shop outside the road outside the venue, felt a slight tightening.
Liang Fu's voice came from the earphones.
"Be careful and keep your position as close to the exit as possible in case you can escape the venue in the first place. ”
Qi Xiaopu's eyes became heavier and heavier, and he responded: "Understood!"
He swallowed again.
Time seems to be slowing down at this moment.
Step by step, approach the bathroom.
His steps also seemed to be extremely difficult, and from a distance he could see the men's restroom on the left, the women's restroom on the right, and a large washstand in the middle, shared by men and women.
At that moment, Qi Xiaopu's heart suddenly seemed to stop suddenly, and his footsteps froze in place and couldn't move.
Because before he stepped forward, Chen Dong had already finished his hands and washed his hands.
Qi Xiaopu's pupils dilated, and he couldn't help but press down the hat, and then turned slightly sideways and took out his mobile phone and pretended to call.
The sound of a pounding heartbeat.
It was as if he could hear his pulse clearly.
After Chen Dong finished washing his hands, he took out the paper towel next to him to dry it and returned the way he came.
Since the two of them were originally in different directions at the venue, there was no need to worry about bumping into each other.
When Chen Dong gradually walked away, Qi Xiaogou turned his head to look at the other party's back with a pale face, and he suppressed his voice and said, "No, my position is too far away from the exit, I don't dare to get close to it." ”
Far away in the B&B hotel at the moment.
Sun Yuan and Liang Fu had already captured the footage through the small camera in the button and saw the picture of Chen Dong at the washstand.
"Wait, go back!"
Zhong Xujie operated the progress bar of the video in front of the computer, pulled the front screen, and froze the picture of Chen Dong coming out of the bathroom, and then turning to the sink to turn on the faucet.
The corners of Liang Fu's mouth rose, and he quickly judged: "He saw you." ”
"See me, shouldn't you see the face!" Qi Xiaogou still had a feeling of shock.
He knew very well that once he was exposed, he would fall into an extremely dangerous situation, so he subconsciously blocked himself with his hat just now and turned sideways.
Sun Yuan looked at this shooting picture and smiled playfully: "No, I should have seen the face." ”
"How is it possible, I moved very fast, I turned sideways without turning his head!" Qi Xiaogou retorted instantly.
Liang Fu explained with a deep and firm look in his eyes: "He didn't turn around, but there is a mirror on the sink, and it is very likely that he will see you in the mirror when he washes his hands." ”
Qi Xiaopu gasped, his eyes were full of shock, and he stopped in an instant and looked back at the mirror.
Sure enough, he could see his own figure, and his position was closer just now, so the person in the mirror should be bigger than now.
Hearing this answer, Dong Ergou, who was outside the court, also blurted out suddenly: "So, is he pretending not to see it?"
Liang Fu analyzed with a serious expression: "There are two situations, the first is that he pretended not to see it, just to catch us all, so he will not reveal the identity of the puppy in a short period of time." ”
"In the second case, he will hide the fact that he saw the puppy, which means that he is on our side. ”
Zhong Xujie insisted on his position, and he said: "It's hard to say, the female doctors of the Mo family are mixed with them, and I always feel that they have problems. ”
Once again, the crowd was heartbroken.
It's just fucked up.
First of all, Chen Dong didn't really see Qi puppy, so he couldn't completely infer that he really recognized it.
Secondly, even if they recognized it, they did not give a password or gesture to communicate.
Then there is still the possibility of hostilities.
Therefore, this time the temptation did not achieve too ideal results.
