After some twists and turns, Bai Yiru finally blocked Vincent who was going out to run errands at the door of the hotel.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Vincent is busy, and I can't meet without an appointment." Vincent's secretary blocked Bai Yiru and prevented her from getting close to Vincent. Bai Yiru ignored the secretary and said directly to the expressionless Vincent: "I need to talk to you, just for a while." You know what's going on. ”

Vincent glanced at Bai Yiru in silence and continued to walk out without stopping.

He is a celebrity, with a unique celebrity who can't hide his arrogance and lofty brilliance, which is unapproachable.

The iron-hearted Bai Yiru was bent on proving her innocence, she pushed Vincent's secretary away, stepped forward and grabbed Vincent's sleeve, and looked at him without showing weakness.

"Talk to me, or I'll make the plagiarism public now, and as for who copied whom, let everyone judge." There was a hint of fearlessness in her slightly threatening eyes, and she reminded Vincent in a low voice, "My husband is Lukas, and if he knew about this, he would definitely not stop investigating it." ”

Vincent's footsteps paused, still expressionless, and his voice said to the secretary without any ups and downs: "Tell the other side, the appointment is canceled." ”

"But doesn't that mean there's something important?" The secretary reminded Vincent and glanced at Bai Yiru vigilantly.

"It doesn't matter. See you later. I'm going to have coffee with Mrs. Lukas now. Vincent said, and walked to the elevator of the hotel, where there was a nice café on the second floor.

Bai Yiru hurriedly followed, chasing Vincent to a position close to the corner.

"Submit the information, the day we met, you bumped me up, right?" Bai Yiru waited until the waiter served the coffee and left, and asked Vincent straight to the point.

"Yes. But I apologize. Vincent said sternly.

"You bumped into me, but you actually took my manuscript and now give it back to me." Bai Yiru's tone was firm, so many things happened that day, and only when she met Vincent did someone have a chance to get close to her and the paper bag.

"Do you think I'm going to steal your manuscript?" Vincent took a sip of coffee arrogantly, looked at Bai Yiru coldly, and looked down on him, "I am also a little famous in the art world, and I don't want to plagiarize a little-known newcomer." ”

"As for no, that's your own business. But plagiarism is already a fact. You'd better give me back the manuscript. Bai Yiru must find the original manuscript, otherwise he will not send it to prove his innocence.

"Don't forget, when I apologize to you, I was empty-handed." Vincent picked up the coffee cup, but he didn't drink it, put it down again, and looked at Bai Yiru, "You are slandering and ruining my reputation, I will sue you." ”

"Then you go." Bai Yiru is not afraid, she didn't do anything wrong, and she was afraid of being sued? And she is full of hope that Vincent will sue and attract public attention, so as not to be manipulated by some people behind the scenes and let the cleaner be wronged.

"Don't think I don't dare. I haven't sued, because I don't want to ruin your new person's back road, you have to be content. ”

"I'm not afraid." Bai Yiru raised his eyebrows and forced Vincent to ask, "Just now I said that I would take my original manuscript with my hands, but I never said that you took it, why are you in a hurry to get rid of yourself, and say that you were empty-handed at that time?" Don't you think this is three hundred taels of silver here? ”

Vincent's face changed slightly, but only slightly, and quickly, and in a flash, he regained his previous expressionless appearance.

"But don't you mean to doubt me?" He asked rhetorically.

"But your reaction is a little too motivating, isn't it? If it weren't for you, you wouldn't have said that. With your noble personality, you would never even want to talk to him, so how could you say so much to clear yourself? ”

"It doesn't seem like we need to talk. You'd better find the original, or you'll be back in the newspaper two days later if you plagiarize, and your future will be ruined, but it has nothing to do with me. Vincent said coldly, stood up coldly, and told the secretary to pay the bill, while he himself walked down the stairs towards the elevator.

Bai Yiru sat there dejectedly, and only left after a long time, it seemed useless to find Vincent, and he had to find a new way.

She was sure that even though Vincent, who had apologized to her at the time, was empty-handed, he must have stolen the sketch, and he was just covering up for his accomplices.

Coming out of the café, Bai Yiru went to the art center again.

The place where the art center submits materials was originally an exhibition hall, but when there are no exhibitions, it is empty.

In the past few days, no one has submitted a drawing, and the place is naturally empty, and there is not even a single figure to be seen.

She found the head of the competition working group, walked in together, looked around, and found two cameras.

"If there's surveillance here, why don't you watch the surveillance footage?" She asked the people around her.

"These two cameras are broken, they have been broken for more than a year, and they have not been repaired because they are often not used in the exhibition hall." The staff is telling the truth, because the exhibition hall is rarely used, so it is not cost-effective to change the monitoring facilities.

"Broken?" Bai Yiru frowned, why was it so unlucky. She walked around two more times, "What about the staff who submitted the documents that day?" Ask them, and maybe they know the truth. Who is innocent can be proven. ”

"We asked, and they didn't know anything. If you don't believe me, you can ask for yourself. The staff was not impatient, but took Bai Yiru to meet the staff who were in charge of collecting the materials that day.

After some conversation, Bai Yiru didn't get any useful clues, so she could only go home first.

For the next two days, she spent the next two days running around outside, but no evidence was found, like the original manuscript.

On the day when the results of the competition were announced and the award ceremony was held, she hesitated and went to the scene.

The competition is a big event in the city, the award ceremony was held in the square, there were many people who came to the scene, and the reporters were also very hard to dig up the news, so they naturally dug Bai Yiru here.

Although the people in the competition working group did not publicly say that Bai Yiru plagiarized Vincent, they don't know who leaked the news, or let the reporters smell the gossip, and pounced on Bai Yiru as soon as they saw it.

The reporters' questions are more acute than one another, which is nothing more than saying that Bai Yiru, as a newcomer, is famous, but after all, it is nothing, how can he do such a despicable thing as plagiarism, and it is the famous Master Vincent who plagiarizes.

"Do you have any proof that I plagiarized?" Bai Yiru was not afraid, standing in the crowd, calmly facing the flashing lights and countless microphones, "Now that no one has any evidence, you just assert it like this, will it be unprofessional?" ”

"As a plagiarist, are you still qualified to say professional standards?" The reporter asked Bai Yiru again, "Since you said that you were wronged, then please come up with evidence." ”

"The evidence is in Vincent's hands." Bai Yiru didn't say to the public that he had lost his original manuscript, otherwise he would bring more trouble to himself, so he directly pushed the finger on Vincent. She took a reporter's microphone and looked over the crowd to Vincent in the award booth, "Since you said that the work was your original, please tell us about the experience of creating the painting." ”

Her action made the reporters quiet a little, but it was only for a few minutes, and then it became even more noisy.

"Can you prove your innocence by talking about your creative experience?" The reporter asked Bai Yiru sharply.

"How do you know if you don't tell me?" Bai Yiru looked at Vincent stubbornly, "You don't say it because you don't dare to speak, for fear that as soon as you open your mouth, you will expose the truth of your plagiarism?" ”

Vincent frowned, still silent, but his secretary stepped forward.

"Miss Bai, please pay attention to your words, every qiē you say at this moment will become evidence of your slander against Mr. Vincent in the future." The secretary seemed to be talking about things, but how could Bai Yiru not know that he was threatening her, but she wouldn't be afraid.

"As for who slanders, please wait and see. I'm asking Vincent now, not you. She glanced at the secretary and then continued to Vincent, "Since you can't tell, I'll tell you what kind of origin I have for this painting." ”

"I can't tell what I painted?" Vincent opened his mouth suddenly, his face pale and lifeless, and there was no ripple at all. "This painting is last month, on the way to travel, I saw the beautiful scenery of the sunset, and suddenly I had the feeling that the sunset is sinking like the twilight of life, so I deliberately took a commemorative picture and painted this painting."

"Does this painting give people the artistic conception of the twilight of life? If you take a closer look, this is clearly a painting full of vitality and vitality. Bai Yiru smiled confidently and calmly defended herself, "Sunset is the end of the day, but it also indicates that the old day is going to go and the new day is coming, this is not just the sunset, it is the soil that breeds new hopes, new goals, and new starting points." ”

After listening to Bai Yiru's words, everyone looked at the painting carefully, and felt that what she said was still very reasonable, which inevitably caused a sigh.

"The artistic conception of the painting will be different according to the mood of the person looking at the painting, and this does not prove your innocence." The staff of the competition working group of the art center adhered to the fair and reasonable rules of the competition, stood up and said solemnly.

"Then dare you ask Mr. Vincent, can you tell what kind of mountain this mountain is? Where is it located, what is its name, how high is it, and what is the most famous on it? Bai Yiru ignored the words of the working group and asked Vincent questions again.

"This can't be proof." The members of the Working Group said again.

"Whether it's evidence or not, we'll have to wait for Vincent to answer." Bai Yiru also spoke mercilessly to the people in the working group, "If you don't let Vincent say it, then can I think that you are covering him?" So where does the so-called fairness and justice begin? Is there any point in holding such a competition in the future? ”

In the face of Bai Yiru's words, the people in the working group exchanged words in a low voice, and then no longer said anything about Bai Yiru, but asked Vincent to answer the question she had just raised.

"This is the mountain in front of you, the altitude, the height, the famous things, will anyone present know it?" Vincent casually pointed to a mountain not far in front of him, "There is a difference between the painting and the actual scenery, because the painting is a creation, not a blind reflection of the scenery that the painter really sees." So if I don't talk about the mountain in this painting, you won't be able to see that it's close in front of you. ”

Everyone looked at the mountain, and then looked at the painting, it was really the same as Vincent said, although it was not a copy of the original appearance, but it could still feel a little similar.

"Wrong!" Bai Yiru decisively dispelled the newly born belief in Vincent of this group of people, "This mountain is located in the Phoenix Mountain of H City, China, the mountain is 2015 kilometers high, because it looks like a phoenix from a distance, so it is named, the most famous on the mountain is the Jiang Temple, which is established in the face of the river, has a strong Qiang cultural atmosphere, and now after the planning and construction of the municipal government, there is a famous lantern pattern - Phoenix Peony." Because the opposite of Phoenix Mountain is Peony Mountain. ”

She said the same thing, and took out a lot of photos and printed copies of brochures from her bag and distributed them to the reporters in front of her. "If you look closely, you will find that I painted the mountain of this part of the phoenix's head, and it is a realistic portrayal of the real scenery, without a little exaggeration and creation."

Vincent, who was in the award booth, frowned, stood up, stepped aside, and whispered to the secretary, "What's the matter with the reporter?" didn't come to report Bai Yiru's plagiarism, why are you still listening to her messing around here? ”

"It is estimated that the reporter knows Bai Yiru's identity, so he is afraid and does not dare to draw conclusions directly." The secretary replied, "Why don't we say hello to the reporter now?" ”

"Go ahead. Be quick and be careful. Vincent nodded and sat back in his seat.

No matter how noisy the audience was, how Bai Yiru came up with evidence to refute him, he was expressionless, as if it was none of his business.

He looked at the crowd indifferently, he didn't expect Bai Yiru, who couldn't find evidence, to be so persistent, and he was also careless, why didn't he think of greeting reporters at the beginning, and if he bought the words of those reporters, this situation would not occur now. If this situation continues, it will really do him more harm than good.

After Bai Yiru proved that the painting was her own, she took the initiative to ask questions when she saw that the members of the working group still didn't say anything.

"Doesn't that mean that the painting is mine? Could it be the author himself who can't even tell the source of the content on the painting? This time, she walked directly in front of the team members and stared into their eyes and asked.

"It may prove that it is not a painting by Mr. Vincent, but there is no way to prove that it is yours. After all, there are many people who are not painters, but they also know the experience of painters and so on. "The people in the working group can't judge for the time being, and they have to respond to the public's questions, so that's what I said." Everyone who participated in the creation this time has the original manuscript in hand, so why don't you take out the original manuscript and show it to everyone. ”

After such a mention came out, Vincent sat quietly and did not rush to take out the original manuscript.

But Bai Yiru was shocked, what she was most worried about was that the people in the working group asked her to take out the original manuscript.

"I lost my manuscript and someone stole my manuscript and plagiarized my paintings." When she saw that Vincent was not moving, she took the initiative to speak and seize the initiative, otherwise she would make her already passive self even more passive, "Does Vincent have an original?" If so, why not show it to everyone? I am curious if the inscription on your manuscript is your seal or mine. I think everyone is curious, right? She turned back to the group of reporters who wished things were getting more and more bloody, more outrageous, and more and more curious, and incited them to help herself force Vincent to produce the original manuscript.

Vincent did not speak, but beckoned to the secretary who was not far away, and the secretary brought him a bag and went to stand again.

He took out an original manuscript from the bag, slowly spread it out, and deliberately pointed the part of the payment to the public, without saying a word.

"It's Vincent's!" Someone shouted in surprise.

Bai Yiru frowned, and the payment was also changed? Can this be changed as well?

"Miss Bai, do you have anything else to say now? Or do you have any evidence that can continue to prove that you were wronged? The people in the working group looked at Bai Yiru, and they also hoped that the matter would be resolved as soon as possible, after all, one was Lukas's wife, a painting star, and neither of them was easy to mess with.

Bai Yiru frowned, she didn't expect Vincent to even change the payment, this was the only evidence she could prove herself, but now it was gone, so she didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so she could only remain silent.

"I can prove it."

Suddenly, a confident female voice came from the crowd.

Bai Yiru followed everyone's gaze and looked at the sound in the distance, and suddenly smiled, and the corners of her eyes were filled with tears.

Ning Keyan didn't look at Bai Yiru, as if there was no such person, she walked up to the reporter by herself, looked at those microphones, and said clearly word by word: "The sunset on this painting was met by our family when we went back to H City last year and went to the Jiangshen Temple in Phoenix Mountain to offer incense together." That day, Yiru told me that I wanted to draw it, and I encouraged her. When she returned home, she was so inspired that she completed the painting in one go that night. The pilgrims in the temple have the names of our whole family on the book, which can be proved by the time of keeping up with the incense. ”

Bai Yiru cried and laughed, she never thought that Ning Ningyan would come to testify to herself, and this painting was indeed a painting from last year. This time I received a call from the art center, and she had no intention of painting because of her family affairs, so she directly found a pair of previous paintings and handed them in.

After seeing Ning Keyan, the people from the "this ......" working group became even more nervous, "Mrs. Gu, this matter needs to be further investigated......
