138 brooch
Jenny pursed her lips, as if she didn't know what to say for a moment.
What is kindness? Kindness is thinking about others. At this time, Xin Huohuo felt embarrassed by Jenny, after all, as an assistant police officer, it stands to reason that he would not be able to come to this kind of occasion. So in order to avoid embarrassment, she glanced at it and saw Jenny's piano-shaped brooch pinned to her chest, so she casually praised, "This is really chic." ”
"Really?" Jenny seemed to be pleased, took off the brooch with her hands, and handed it to Xin Huohuo, "You really have an eye, this is a genuine out-of-print." ”
In order to prevent timidity, Xin Huohuo didn't dare to ask what kind of big-name jewelry it was, but just admired the brooch very politely and seriously: the white gold bottom support, the gold strings, and the fine rubies on it, exquisite workmanship, exquisite materials, really beautiful.
"The western lyre, which symbolizes Erato, the goddess of lyric poetry, is so beautiful. She admired.
"You know?" said Jenny, raising her eyebrows.
For a moment, Xin Huohuo felt the disdain and contempt in Jenny's eyes, although it was brief, but it was obvious. Sure enough, after hearing that she was an "assistant policeman", she looked down on people, right? Cut, this is not important knowledge, why doesn't she understand? She has been to Greece with a tour group before!
Xin Huohuo said "um", carefully returned the brooch to Jenny, and then fell silent.
This is clear body rejection language, indicating that the other person has offended her. Although she is kind-hearted, she is also a little temperamental, and she can't be kind to her in any situation. When the fire is big, he doesn't even pay attention to black and white impermanence and that demon, let alone others?
The friendly atmosphere suddenly cooled down. Just at this time, the auction began, relieving the embarrassment between the two.
Xin Huohuo looked ahead, pretending to be serious. Jenny was amused, and didn't talk any further. After a moment, Xin Huohuo saw a red shadow out of the corner of his eye, stood up, and walked towards the stairs.
She knew that Jenny was gone, and she didn't pay much attention to it, just as an unpleasant experience of talking to strangers. But, as the first exhibit was sold, the slightly pompous lights in the room swirled like a celebratory spin, and when they hit her table, the flashes of light next to her pierced her eyes.
Looking back, it was actually the lyre brooch, lying quietly on the table.
Xin Huohuo was a bit surprised, after all, this piece of jewelry seemed to be worth a lot of money. Even if Jenny is a rich person, she doesn't care about this kind of thing that is at least six figures, and she is quite congested if she loses her favor. When I looked up again, I saw Jenny's back appear on the stairs, as if she was about to leave.
Although I don't know why Jenny went up to the second floor, although it hurt her self-esteem just now because of Jenny's snobbery, and it was a little unpleasant, Xin Huohuo is not a person with a small belly, so he hesitated for a second, and felt that there was no need to pretend that he didn't see it, and finally stood up and chased after him with a brooch.
In the distance, Bei Mingyuan was being pulled by two men to talk, and he didn't notice the situation here at all.
"Jenny, wait. Xin Huohuo ran to the top of the stairs and shouted softly when he saw that Jenny was almost at the top.
She didn't dare to make a loud noise, after all, the auction was still going on. But Jenny didn't seem to hear such a whisper, and quickly turned into the corridor on the second floor.
There was no way, Xin Huohuo had no choice but to continue chasing.
Because the dinner party is also coming to an end, and the waiters take food and drink, or send the moved cups and plates back to the kitchen, all through two vertical lifting passages, so there is no one in the corridor on the second floor, only the warm yellow light on the top, and the hustle and bustle downstairs, indicating that this place is not a different time and space.
"Jenny. Xin Huohuo screamed again.
Jenny paused, but didn't look back, and continued to walk on, quickening her pace. It seems that the spicy fire carries the germs of poverty and has a strong contagious effect.
In the empty hallway, the sound of high heels hitting the ground was urgent, clear, and slightly echoed...... Tuk Tuk ...... Tuk Tuk ...... The sound was matched with the fiery red shirt in front of him, the narrow waist, the wide skirt, and the thick flowing black hair, which constituted a near-perfect scene. It's a pity, it's a bit ghostly, like a shadow puppet projected in the depths of darkness.
"Cut, you're arrogant, you don't care about people!" Xin Huohuo was a little angry, so angry that he wanted to throw the brooch on the ground, but he thought it was better to throw it on Jenny's face. So, desperately chased after him.
Soon, she chased down the stairs that Xiaoxue had taken her to climb a few hours earlier.
The staircase was high and steep, and the lighting was dim, so that it was impossible to see below from the top. So, after a bang, Jenny's high heels could not be heard, and it seemed that she had gone out the back door on the first floor.
Forget it, don't be angry with this kind of person! I kindly returned the slut's lost property, and it wasn't my fault that she ignored it, and it was a big deal to hand over the brooch to the organizer. If she really likes it, she'll come back. I'm definitely good at finding money like this, good character. Xin Huohuo thought about it, feeling that he was benevolent and righteous, and there was a trace of strangeness in his heart for no reason, so he decided to go back to the hall first.
But when she turned around, she suddenly heard a melodious sound of the piano.
Music is always beautiful, but when a voice suddenly came from nowhere on the empty staircase, Xin Huohuo was really startled, and the brooch in his hand almost fell to the ground.
She subconsciously clenched it, but there was a sharp pain in her palm. She screamed, and the music stopped abruptly, as abruptly as it had appeared.
Xin Huohuo has never studied vocal music, and his ear's judgment of the direction of sound is also very average. As a result, she had no way of knowing where the music came from. In the hall, or outside the building, or someone passing through the hallway, and the ringing of a mobile phone. Thinking of her phone, she suddenly remembered that the dinner bag she had with her was still on the table, and she had to go back to get it.
She quickened her pace, but at that moment, the music started again.
Xin Huohuo broke out in a cold sweat on her back, and her sixth sense told her that something was wrong. The palm of her hand was getting more and more painful, and she subconsciously looked down and was shocked to find that the brooch actually pierced her hand with blood. And it was actually pierced deeply, and the blood coming out of the palm of his hand was already the size of a dollar coin.
She sizzled in a breath of cold air, because it really hurt. What's even more terrifying is that she actually saw the strings of the brooch vibrating. In another second, a string of notes sounded, and it actually came from her hands!
Dazzled, she must have been dazzled! How could such a small piano-shaped brooch come out with such a loud volume.
Besides, no one has touched it!
Xin Huohuo felt as if the blood in his body was cold and solidified, but the strings moved again. It's not her eyes, it's real, the little piano trembles in her palm, as if licking her skin.
(I feel like a wolf grandmother, telling a story to a bunch of Little Red Riding Hoods.) And then when it comes to certain parts, you have to ask: Are you afraid? dear? haha. (To be continued.) )
