Three. Strange acquaintances
"Something to do with the banquet again? Should we just say no? I looked at Qin Ming in surprise, and my first reaction was to refuse, "It seems that as long as we appear, there will always be murders, right?" Isn't Aunt Man afraid that we will defeat her again? And her friends around her always have ideas......"
"Why don't you say that the ill-intentioned people have chosen a time when we will appear? It means that we are the nemesis of the criminals, you don't have to doubt it. My aunt said that she had called you twice, but each time it was busy, because the organizer's invitation had your name on it, so she gave me this task, and she had to complete the task no matter what. The corners of Qin Ming's mouth raised, "I've already taken the invitation, why don't you go?" Besides, you also need to change your environment to lighten your mood, I think the string in your heart is a little too tight right now. ”
I'm not a person who likes to be boisterous, especially when my memory hasn't fully recovered. The experience of that snowy night was a nightmare for me, and I felt like my heart was pounding hard when I thought of the dull sound of a gunshot. And the heart-rending voice of that woman makes me feel even more uneasy, right now I am in the same city as Su Yang, and the tracking of that woman ended in vain, so will we meet again next? I need to calm down and think seriously about what that woman's true identity is......
But I remained silent, trying to hide my uneasiness. Lest all the people I deal with be stressed, it seems that I have succeeded. At least they didn't ask us what happened to us on that vacation. However, there are a few reporters with a keen sense of smell who seem to have heard the news of Su Yang's hospitalization. Thankfully, it didn't bother him either.
"It's not appropriate for me to go there," I tried my best to refuse Qin Ming's proposal, and it was better to hide at home, "Besides, I know the organizer too, don't I?" ”
"The owner of this mansion is one of your fans. This is the news I just heard, and it took a lot of effort for him to say that he asked my aunt to come with me. Qin Ming said a little helplessly: "Originally, my aunt didn't agree. But knowing that so much has happened to us. She also wants you to take this opportunity to relax. Don't worry, you don't need to do anything, just say a few words of congratulations. I heard that they also invited domestic first-line stars, maybe there are stars you like? ”
The name that popped out of Qin Ming's mouth. made Lin Zi, who was already a little excited, jump happily as if he was crazy. Maybe going there will change my mind?
Originally, I thought that Lin Zi was not a careful person. But she has an unusual enthusiasm for banquets. And that's not all. After she heard Qin Ming mention that matter, she chose the dress for both of us in advance. It wasn't until the morning of the opening of the exhibition that I changed into the dress she had set. It dawned on me how exaggerated she was.
"I'm not the main character, is it too much of an exaggeration for you to do this?" The blue low-cut dress made Qin Ming and Leng Ao, who came to pick us up, brighten their eyes, but I was quite uneasy.
Sure enough, the strange-looking place standing on the side of the Third Ring Road is our destination. It's an office building, so there's no need to expect it to look so showy. However, it is precisely because of the convenient transportation that it is a good choice for the office. To our surprise, every guest entering the door, except for the hostess who welcomed them, had to go through a security check before entering the banquet hall. It is said that because there is an art exhibition on the second floor, in order to ensure the safety of the art exhibition, I can only grieve everyone.
"I've heard that some of the best paintings in China are on display, and many famous painters have also sent their works to cheer up, and there may even be a chance to see the painter himself here, so there are many people who haven't received the invitation before, and they are trying to get one." Lin Zi did his homework beforehand and explained to us when he entered the field.
I was stunned for a moment, it was originally a very common thing to invite people from the literary and artistic circles to make a name for themselves, but the organizers seemed to be a little too careful.
The banquet was held in the hall on the second floor, and if you look at the luxury cars that appear from time to time, you can guess that the host must have invited a lot of people with heads and faces to appear.
"Don't worry about it now, right? You see, even the banquet starts at six o'clock, and we stay here for two hours and then leave. Qin Ming still saw through my thoughts, and couldn't help but comfort me out loud.
The second floor was the main venue for the banquet, where people came in and out from time to time, and our presence didn't seem to attract much attention until the middle-aged man in a suit and glasses walked up to us. He generously shook Aunt Man's hand, then locked his gaze on me, and said slowly: "This is Ms. Fang Qing, I have seen it on TV more than once before." It's a great honor for us to have you to see it, but I'm asking you to come here mainly because I'm in a little trouble and want to ask you for a favor. ”
"Help?" I looked at him hesitantly, and he was really not at all polite. However, although I am not very familiar with the business world, I have seen his appearance on TV, but I was a little stunned for a while, and I didn't react at all. Just as I was about to speak again, Aunt Man took my hand, obviously not wanting me to refuse.
Originally, I wanted to say that if something happened, he could go to the police, but since he knew that Qin Ming was a policeman, he still wanted to ask me, obviously because he didn't want to publicize his own affairs, after all, as a person of his status, he must have encountered some great trouble, so he would deliberately ask someone for help after such a big detour. And Aunt Man's expression also showed that she might have known his arrangement in advance.
After much thought, I nodded, "I'm not sure I can really help, but let's do my best." ”
It wasn't until I said these polite words that I remembered that the middle-aged man in front of me who looked polite and polite was Zhu Meng mentioned by Aunt Man before, an entrepreneur whose career has reached the whole country. He looks older than his actual age, but it can be seen that he is a person who has been in the mall for many years, so his eyes are full of vicissitudes. With my permission, we agreed to meet in his office in an hour. (To be continued.) )
