Chapter 385: Valuables
"Sister, you're overreacting!" Xiao Yao said helplessly, "The robber who escaped is just a bank robber, and he's still a woman." ”
"What's wrong with the woman? The woman's family also plays with guns, can you fight again, can you be as powerful as a gun?" Yin Dao, "Besides, the more women are, the heavier the revenge." ”
"Women are vindictive?, who said that?" Xiao Yao smiled, "Sister, you are sexist, you are also a woman." ”
"As I said, I'm a woman myself, so I'm discriminating against myself!" Yin glared at Xiao Yao and said, "Don't talk about that, are you going to leave? If you don't leave, I'll call Tingting to come over and blast you away, she is easier to find than your parents." ”
"A robber without a shadow, and it's not a mysterious terrorist organization or a killer organization, as long as she is not caught, can't I stay in the United States and in New York?" Xiao Yao smiled bitterly again.
"At least not now. Yin Dao, "Now the news not only says that you are the one who subdued the robbers, but also said that you are a photographer who has been taking pictures at Fashion Week for the past few days." The venue of the fashion week press conference is public, and now how many reporters at home and abroad want to interview you, how many pairs of eyes are staring at you, as long as you appear, most of them will be recognized by reporters and become the focus, can you still be as undiscovered as a few days ago? As long as you have a heart, it is not too easy to go to the press conference venue and wait for the rabbit to catch you. ”
"It's okay if you don't go back to China right away," Speaking of this, Yin also seemed to feel that his reaction seemed to be a little too much, so he took a step back and said, "But from now on, you will stay in the hotel, and it is best not to go to the street casually, especially near the main venue of the fashion week press conference, and you will definitely not go, can you agree? ”
"Then how can it be done?" Xiao Yao immediately said, "I came to New York to see the fashion week to see the press conference, if I don't go to the press conference, why am I coming to New York?"
"Come to accompany Tingting, didn't you come to the United States to see her?" Yin Dao, "It's good for you to accompany Tingting for the past two days." ”
"Duo'er still has classes," Xiao Yao rolled her eyes and said, "The news also said that she is my girlfriend, according to what you mean, do I have to help her hire a bodyguard, or simply persuade her to drop out of school and return to China with me?"
"Okay," Yin nodded, "Although the school is relatively safe, it is still relatively safe in China. After all, we have a ban on guns in China. ”
"Okay, what? I won't say it, and she won't agree!" Xiao Yao said, "Sister, you're really overreacting!"
"Do you think I'm crazy?" Yin said as he looked at Xiao Yao.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you," Xiao Yao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I have the phone number of the police officer who handled that case last year, I'll call first and ask if the escaped robber has been caught, and we'll talk about it when the results are available, okay? Maybe someone has already caught it." ”
As he spoke, Xiao Yao took out his mobile phone, dialed out a number, and chatted with the person on the other end of the phone:
"Hello Mr. Hal, I'm Jan Xiao, the Chinese singer who caught two robbers in the plane robbery last year and helped you make a cameo as a translator, remember me?"
"Remember, it's great! Have you read the news report recently? Last year's events were turned over by the media, and my identity was exposed!"
"No, I don't care, after all, it's been so long, and it's not the American media that first exposed it. I just wanted to ask if last year's case was closed, did you police catch that Mary, because I'm in New York right now. ”
"Of course, I said I have a good memory. Even if it's a pseudonym, I remember. My sister was very worried about my safety in New York, and she asked me to leave New York and return to China, so I needed to know if that Mary had been arrested. ”
"No, no, no, as much as I miss Tim, I don't want bodyguards, I just want you to let me tell my sister that I'm safe in New York. ”
"Okay, I see, thanks!"
Seeing Xiao Yao hang up the phone, Yin immediately asked, "What do you say?"
"The person hasn't been caught yet, and the case hasn't been closed yet. Xiao Yao said.
"But!" Seeing that Yin was about to speak, Xiao Yao immediately continued, "He told me that there has been no trace of the robber committing crimes in the United States for more than a year, and there is no sign of activities in New York." After intelligence analysis, the police determined that the robber must have fled the United States and gone to Mexico or South America, and he said that I am 99.9 percent safe in New York. ”
"Ninety-nine percent, what about the remaining thousandth?" Yin said.
"Ah~" Xiao Yao scratched his hair frantically, and finally made up his mind, "That's good." I promised you that I would not be absent from the two press conferences of your catwalk, and I don't want to break my promise! I won't go to the press conference tomorrow for a day, I will play with Duo'er, and the day after tomorrow I will only go to the press conference of your catwalk. The press conference you walked the catwalk was not at Lincoln Center, the main venue, but at the branch venue on Ninth Avenue, where relatively few people knew about it, avoiding most of the reporters and crowds, and it was relatively safe. I'll go with you, and I'll go with you after watching your catwalk press conference. ”
New York Fashion Week is not only a venue for the show, Lincoln Center with several performance halls is only the main venue this time, generally some of the more well-known big brand shows are held here, and those more distinctive, distinctive but not too well-known personal brands and small brand launches will be held in other venues. Yin's first catwalk was for a big brand, and the venue was at Lincoln Center, the main venue, but the second one was a designer's personal brand, and the venue was at Ninth Street, one of the less lively sub-venues.
Yin opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
If he could, Yin would be willing to quit the catwalk the day after tomorrow and take Xiao Yao back to Huaxia now. But in that catwalk, she was the main show, whether it was clothing or styling, it was specially tailored for her by the cutting-edge designer who gambled on all her net worth, and it was her brainchild, and now there is no way to temporarily replace her, and Yin can't quit if she wants to.
Although he didn't know who Xiao Yao was calling specifically, but in this kind of thing, Yin believed that Xiao Yao would not lie to her, otherwise he could have said that the person had been caught, and she would have no way to verify. Since the police made the judgment that the robber was not in the United States, and Xiao Yao made such a big concession, Yin finally nodded and agreed.
As Xiao Yao said, her show was at the branch venue of Ninth Avenue, and relatively few people knew about it, and if she wanted to keep an eye on Xiao Yao, most of them would go to the main venue of Lincoln Center, and Ninth Avenue was relatively safe.
Finally dispelled Yin's idea of sending him back to China immediately, and won the opportunity to attend the last press conference, Xiao Yao immediately got up and said goodbye.
Xiao Yao and Yin Ben didn't live in the same hotel, but they were depressed after receiving Ye Jiaying's call and being complained, Sun Tingting was in class again, so she came to see Yin and chatted with her to relieve her boredom, but she was almost forcibly sent back to China by Yin. Now after doing Yin's work with difficulty, Xiao Yao immediately slipped away.
Coming out of Yin's hotel room, Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time secretly glad in his heart that his parents didn't know that there was a fugitive armed robber in that case who had not been arrested, otherwise Ye Jiaying might have the same reaction as Yin, asking him to go back immediately. The last time he went to Wuyou County temporarily, although Xiao Yao didn't have anything to do in the end, he was still counted down by Ye Jiaying on the phone for a long time, saying that Xiao Yao didn't even dare to go back to his home later, and went back to Shencheng directly under the pretext that school was about to start, if Ye Jiaying really knew about it, it was really hard to say whether Ye Jiaying would fly to the United States to arrest him in person.
In some things, Xiao Yao is still very trustworthy. said that he would attend Yin's two catwalks, then he must attend, and promised Yin not to go to the fashion week press conference the next day, and Xiao Yao really didn't go. As for the three posts on Linlang, Xiao Yao didn't stop updating. There were a lot of photos taken in the first few days, and Xiao Yao didn't post all the photos taken every day, but in the next two days, Xiao Yao picked some of the photos he took in the previous days but didn't post them. Anyway, he only said that the post would continue to be updated, but he didn't say that the content updated every day was taken by him the day before.
On the last day of New York Fashion Week, Xiao Yao came to Yin's hotel early, and then, as agreed, got into the car sent to pick her up with Yin and went to the scene of the press conference.
The branch venue on Ninth Avenue is in a building called the "Emerald Palace". It is a venue dedicated to all kinds of shows, performances, and presentations. Daniel Ault's personal brand show, where Yin participated in the catwalk, was in one of the performance halls dedicated to fashion shows.
Of course, several sub-venues are not as starry as the main venue, but since the conference can be held at Fashion Week, the brand or the people behind the brand are not unknown. Although the brands that hold the conference in these places may be slightly inferior in terms of fame to those mainstream well-known brands in the main venue, these brands often have a more unique style and a more distinctive personality and charm, and there is no shortage of celebrities who are interested in this aspect and pursue more individuality. Even outside a few branch venues, there is no shortage of reporters.
Seeing that there were many reporters standing outside the door, Yin did not get out of the car to accept the reporters' flashing lights, but instructed the driver to drive the car directly to the back door, and took Xiao Yao to enter the "Jade Palace" from the staff passage at the back door and went to the backstage of the press conference.
When Yin and Xiao Yao entered the backstage, Daniel Oult, the person in charge of the press conference who had already arrived, and the founder and chief designer of the brand, immediately greeted him with a smile on his face. After a pleasantry, Daniel Ault immediately hired a stylist to style Yin's makeup, and he went to check the outfits to be displayed at the press conference again. As for Xiao Yao, Daniel Oalter, who knew Xiao Yao's identity, let him move freely.
Even watching Yin's catwalk, Xiao Yao did not forget his identity as a photographer. It's still a photographer's smart outfit, carrying a camera on his back. After taking some work photos of Yin and other models doing styling in the background, Xiao Yao, who had nothing to do, quietly slipped to the front with a camera.
At this time, it is not yet time for the press conference to begin, and preparations are being made in front of the audience, such as setting up the audience seats, adjusting the lighting and sound equipment, etc., and the audience has not yet begun to enter. In addition to the staff, only a few media reporters and photographers who were authorized to enter the press conference to report and shoot were looking for a location with the best view and shooting angle.
Although he carried a camera on his back, Xiao Yao sat in the audience as an audience to watch and shoot Yin's catwalk, so Xiao Yao did not compete for a position with those peers, but just took a turn at the scene of the press conference, observed the environment and layout of the scene, took some photos of the scene, and returned to the backstage.
The scene of the press conference making preparations was full of people, and it seemed to be busy, debugging the lighting and sound equipment made the scene noisy, and the light and darkness changed frequently, and those media reporters and photographers were busy grabbing a favorable position, so Xiao Yao went to the front and turned around, but he was not discovered by the media reporters and photographers at the scene.
After returning to the backstage, Xiao Yao found that Yin was still styling, but there was something very conspicuous on the dressing table in front of him.
"Wow~ Danny is a bloody one!" Xiao Yao walked up to Yin, looked at the thing on the dressing table and exclaimed, "This thing is worth a lot of money, right?"
The extra thing in front of Yin was an open jewelry box containing a necklace and a pair of earrings. The necklace and earrings are studded with fine diamonds, the pendant of the necklace is a pear-shaped sapphire set in a platinum base, and the pendant under a pair of earrings is also the same shape sapphire as the necklace pendant, which looks like a set, but the sapphire pendant under the earrings is smaller than the necklace pendant. The entire set of jewelry shines in the light of the vanity mirror, dazzling and dazzling.
"It's said that this set of jewelry is worth eight million dollars, and Danny can't afford it," Yin laughs, "and he borrowed it with great difficulty." ”
"Eight million?!"
Xiao Yao glared, and immediately raised the camera in his hand with great interest to take pictures of this set of jewelry. This is the first time Xiao Yao has seen such valuable jewelry with his own eyes. Although he has also helped jewelry brands shoot product catalogs before, the price of the most expensive single set of jewelry he has ever photographed before has not exceeded one million US dollars, and Xiao Yao will naturally not let go of such a precious thing this time.
"Such a valuable thing is just placed here, aren't you afraid of being stolen and robbed?" Xiao Yao, who took a few photos and put down the camera, asked with some concern.
