"We ...... Haven't seen you in twenty-five years? ”

In the city, in a café, the woman in front of Tao Xuanran said in a reminiscent tone.

"Twenty-six years."

Tao Xuanran understated and didn't care much.

"After that, I went to Ningjiang's aunt and lived there ever since."

The woman sighed and said with a slight smile.

"I don't hear from you, teacher, but I know that you must have something to do with yourself."

"Well, over the years, there have been a lot of things, and it's a long story."

Tao Xuanran picked up the bitter coffee and took a sip gently.

"I come to sweep my brother's grave by myself every year, but this year I delayed a little for a while, and I arrived in the evening, but I didn't expect ......"

The woman looked at Tao Xuanran, then at Bai Ge on the side, and asked with a little hesitation.

"Is this your grandson, teacher?"

Grandson?

Bai Ge looked at Tao Xuanran, was he like him?

"No, this is my student."

Tao Xuanran chuckled lightly, and said with emotion secretly.

"I've been walking around all these years, and no woman would want to be with me, haha."

"What's the matter...... You're still teaching, well, I should know, you're a really good teacher. ”

The woman smiled reassuringly and looked at Bai Ge with a kind gaze.

"Follow Teacher Tao and study hard."

"Okay, okay."

Bai Ge was completely out of the situation, and could only agree with a confused face.

After that, Tao Xuanran chatted with the woman a few more words.

Bai Ge was eating cake on the side and listened very carefully.

After all, it's rare gossip.

It turned out that this woman's name was Yang Dongxue, and she was the sister of Yang Zhengbang, Tao Xuanran's sacrificial companion.

Before he became an upgrader and was involved in the transcendent world, Tao Xuanran was really a teacher, and Yang Zhengbang used his colleague as a cover, Yang Dongxue, a student at that school, had just entered the first year of high school.

She came this time to help Yang Zhengbang sweep the tomb, but it was not a real tomb, or rather, it was just the tomb of Yang Zhengbang, who was a teacher.

It is not the grave of Yang Zhengbang, who is an ascender, as an inspector of the Abyss Relic Affairs Division, who sacrificed his life to protect ordinary people.

On the bright side, Yang Zhengbang, like the other victims of that incident, died accidentally.

To this day, she doesn't know that her brother had sacrificed himself to protect others.

"Then it's not too early today, and I should go back to the hotel."

After talking for more than half an hour, it was not until the stars completely occupied the night that Yang Dongxue was a little reluctant, and stood up with a little desire to speak.

She asked for a sticky note from the service industry and wrote a number on it.

"This is my number, if there is anything about Mr. Tao, you can contact me, I will go back to Ningjiang at noon tomorrow, before that, there is still some time."

Yang Dongxue didn't ask Tao Xuanran for his contact information, maybe she sensed something.

Seeing the other party leave, Tao Xuanran sighed.

"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll tell you a story."

He said to Bai Ge.

Tao Xuanran was originally just an ordinary teacher and was often taken care of by Yang Zhengbang, but in fact, Yang Zhengbang was already the inspector of the Abyss Relic Affairs Department at that time, and he hid this matter from everyone, including his sister.

Later, Tao Xuanran became an upgrader and was absorbed by Yang Zhengbang into the Abyss Relic Affairs Division, and the two worked together for a period of time, and his relationship with Yang Dongxue became a lot closer.

Until a certain incident, Yang Zhengbang was killed, Tao Xuanran was transferred out of Jingjiang for a time, and he lost contact with Yang Dongxue.

"I've probably always felt guilty about her, after all, her brother died trying to save me."

Tao Xuan smiled self-deprecatingly.

"I guess even if she doesn't know, she still has a grudge against me who went out with Zhengbang but only came back by herself."

Hearing Tao Xuanran's words, Bai Ge was silent for a moment.

"No, Tao Lao, I don't think that's the case."

He opened his mouth and made Tao Xuanran look over.

"She didn't have a ring on her hand, and she went from Ningjiang to Jingjiang alone, which means that she is not married."

"When she saw me, she guessed that I was your grandson, which was a defensive way of asking and showed that she didn't want that."

"She clearly hesitated when she left."

"At the same time, when the two of you are talking, her eyes and attention are always on Tao Laoyou."

"So according to my judgment, she actually cares about you very much, and may even like you, she has been alone all these years, but she realized that you may have the same secrets as her brother, so she chose to keep her distance."

Hearing Bai Ge's words, Tao Xuanran's expression froze slightly.

"Little kid, what do you know?"

He dismissed it with a look of displeasure.

But he stared at the note with the number written in his hand and was silent.

...

...

Monday.

Although Bai Ge was quite interested in the story between Tao Xuanran and the lady, in the final analysis, it was only a matter of those two people, Bai Ge had no room for mixing, and only hoped that Tao Xuanran would not miss anything again.

Bai Ge spent the morning physical education class touching the fish again, but compared with September, the temperature is slightly lower now, many people have changed into autumn school uniforms, and many boys lamented that they can no longer see the slender legs of beautiful girls, but Bai Ge has no emotion.

The first session of the afternoon was Mr. Bi's art class, and when the lunch break was about to end and everyone was about to leave for the art classroom, Mr. Bi, who was wearing brown blackout glasses, walked into the classroom.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today's art class is here, uh, the request from the above, I would like to introduce the traveling exhibition that will be held at the Jingjiang City Museum at the end of November."

The young teacher was also clearly a little ill-prepared.

When the class bell rang, he turned on the projection, and the cover was the background of the standard slides commonly used in Jingjiang High School.

It was a man with a typical Pan-Western Sea appearance, with slightly curly blond hair and green eyes, and the man looked about forty years old, not as bloated and fat as Pan-Western people of this age, but looked very capable, like a gentleman.

He was also wearing a classic pan-Western Sea style dress and suit, holding a walking stick.

Bai Ge saw the name next to the photo.

Frederich Darmstadt.

He recalled it for a moment, remembering where he had seen his name.

"This is the organizer of this traveling exhibition, Freedrich Darmstadt, he was born in New Brandenburg, the Pan-Western Sea business community, his parents were wealthy local businessmen, Mr. Darmstadt inherited the family business when he was young, carried out commerce, finance and other businesses, earned a lot of money, after middle age, turned to the collection of cultural relics, is a famous collector."

Mr. Bi introduced while switching between slides.

Bai Ge remembered that when he stole Qin Kewei's villa before, he had seen this name and photo on the relevant materials of the Sea Blue Heart.

At that time, I remembered that this collector competed with the Jingshang Group for the Heart of the Blue Sea, but withdrew halfway due to an accident, and now it seems that it was probably at that time that Qin Kewei used the illegal organization behind him to do some tricks.

"In addition to being a collector, Mr. Darmstadt himself is also a highly accomplished artist, a well-known oil painter and architect, and he knows a lot about the various styles ......of art of the old era, and I was very impressed by the fact that I had the privilege of listening to his lecture once at school when I was still in college."

Mr. Bi seemed to appreciate this collector, and the corners of his mouth were unconsciously smiling.

"This traveling exhibition will feature some of the artifacts that Mr. Darmstadt has collected for many years, and these artistic crystallizations of the old era will help to enhance everyone's aesthetics, and we will introduce some of them in advance in this lesson......"

Over the next 40 minutes, the art teacher explained six artifacts that would be featured in the exhibition.

These include coins with pirate heads minted before the Great Collapse excavated in the Far North, pottery with bird motifs from an island civilization in the Aegean Sea, an oil painting of a starry sky by a famous abstract painter in the Pan-Western Sea region, the "Chariot of the Sun" said to be the seat of the sun god, fragments of stone tablets containing the earliest legal codes of mankind, and a huge dome in the style of the old Zhuxia.

In addition, there are other genuine antiques, and for Bai Ge, compared to Qin Kewei, who used counterfeit jewelry to pretend to be the heart of the sea blue, this Mr. Darmstadt is a real collector.

"Teacher, are there abyssal relics in these things?"

Someone in the classmates asked, probably because of the previous incident of the strange thief JOKER, many people began to care about the ascenders, and they were concerned about the abyss relics.

“...... It is said that there are real relics of the abyss with extraordinary power in Mr. Darmstadt's collection, but I don't think you should expect too much from this exhibition. ”

Teacher Bi spread his hand and smiled helplessly, causing a wave of disappointed boos.

Bai Ge thought that this exhibition probably had nothing to do with him, so he took his eyes off the projection screen and subconsciously glanced at the girl next to him.

He saw that Ai Lian looked at those relics, and his eyes seemed to be shining.

It's over, this guy, something is wrong.

Bai Ge smelled an ominous smell.
