Chapter 63: The Mirror Blurs

At this moment, the middle-aged man who was still smiling looked at Qin Jian in front of him, and Qin Jian also believed in his own judgment, for the analysis he had just made, the middle-aged man standing in front of him could only be this identity.

"I don't know which company you are a valued customer, Bai is a little forgetful when he is old, don't blame Mr."

In this way, the middle-aged man in front of him is really the owner of the Bai family's villa, Bai Qianfeng, then the man with sunglasses behind him should be the bodyguard he is following.

It can be seen that Bai Qianfeng attaches great importance to this collection art exhibition, even in his own home, he still brings his personal bodyguard.

After Bai Qianfeng's words fell, Qin Jian took out his police certificate from the pocket of his suit, as well as the notes written by Director Bai before, and presented them to Bai Qianfeng.

Bai Qianfeng took what Qin Jian presented, the eyes that were originally narrowed into a line because of the smile seemed to be a little bigger than just now, and between the upper and lower eyelids, the black pupils in the eyes could be faintly seen.

He took Qin Jian's police certificate and Director Bai's note to his eyes and looked at them carefully. After that, he returned the things in his hand to Qin Jian.

"Officer Qin, it turns out that you are the person sent by Director Bai."

Qin Jian took his police card and notes while answering Bai Qianfeng:

"Oh no, there are a total of four people sent by Director Bai this time, including me, and they must all be supervising the area under their management now."

"Well, that's good, with your help, I think this collection art exhibition will be held smoothly."

After Bai Qianfeng finished speaking, Qin Jian also gave Bai Qianfeng a smile back: "Hehe, Mr. Bai is serious, this is just our job." ”

Immediately afterwards, Bai Qianfeng said again: "By the way, when did you arrive, why don't I know any news?" ”

"We arrived at the Bai family villa between half past six and six forty, and it was your daughter Bai Linglong who picked us up at the door, and we have already met in person."

"Linglong? You've already seen it? ”

"Yes, Miss Bai didn't know where we went after taking us into the villa."

"This girl, you all arrived and didn't notify me, it's really embarrassing to let you keep walking around the hall, it's Bai's fault." Bai Qianfeng said as he bowed slightly to Qin Jian.

Qin Jian stretched out his hands forward to show his respect for Bai Qianfeng:

"Mr. Bai, don't blame Miss Bai, in fact, needless to say, we also know what we should do, Miss Bai looks young, and it is understandable that she is not willing to stay on this occasion at a young age."

After Bai Qianfeng straightened up, he looked at Qin Jian again:

"I don't know where my daughter went, she wasn't like that at art exhibitions a few years ago."

"Hehe..."Qin Jian didn't know how to answer Bai Qianfeng, so he could only smile reluctantly.

Afraid of affecting the mood when the art exhibition was announced, Qin Jian tried to change the topic:

"By the way, Mr. Bai, you just said that the mask in this glass case is from the last century?"

Qin Jian seemed to have talked about the topic that Bai Qianfeng was interested in, Bai Qianfeng took a step forward and got closer to the glass cabinet, and then, the entire silver clown mask appeared in Bai Qianfeng's eyes.

"Yes, the mask you see now is the one used by one of the last century's masters, Jace."

"Jace? What kind of person he was, I didn't seem to have heard much of this person. ”

"Jace is a clown actor in Europe in the last century, and he is a master among clowns, because every time he performs clown acting skills, he is different from other clowns, he wears a silver and black striped mask, which is different from the colored masks of other clowns, so he is also called the 'silver clown', but everyone who has seen his performance recognizes him as a master."

"So, this mask is the silver mask he used to perform, but how did you get this collectible?" Qin Jian asked.

"I bought this mask at a great price from a merchant at a commercial event, according to him, Jace, the silver-faced clown of the last century, was assassinated during a performance, and since then, his mask has been lost, and it has become a precious collectible, and the merchant got this mask by chance, and it is fate, this mask is now in my hands."

"Such a precious thing, Mr. Bai is willing to take it out for display and auction."

After Qin Jian finished speaking, Bai Qianfeng shook his head helplessly, and closed his eyes again, this time he really couldn't see a little pupil.

"Alas, there is no way that the company is in trouble now, if this batch of artworks is not auctioned, I am afraid that the company will not be able to get through this difficulty!"

"This amount of money should be just a small problem for Mr. Bai, and Mr. Bai must have made a lot of determination to take out part of his collection for auction."

"Yes, for any collector, every piece of collectible has a story behind it."

"However, this time, Mr. Bai actually has to take out the twin mirrors at the art exhibition, but I heard that the value of the twin mirrors is not comparable to the current collections in this hall, including this silver mask."

Qin Jian seemed to have something in his words, but Bai Qianfeng still said: "It's not a secret, the twin mirror does have a lot of price, but Bai Mou is just showing it this time, and good things must be taken out for everyone to see, isn't it?" ”

"But Mr. Bai, Director Bai said on the phone before that someone has already paid attention to the twin mirrors, and I heard that he also sent you a theft notice."

"That's right, that's exactly what I'm looking for you to help me for, and if the twin mirrors are lost in my hands, it will be a huge loss for me and my future business path."

Qin Jian heard what Bai Qianfeng meant, he wanted to express that his so-called business partners now are willing to cooperate with him because he has a twin mirror in his hand, if he loses the twin mirror, it is equivalent to losing the bargaining chip that can contain others, and he has lost a trace of mystery in the eyes of others, sometimes there is such a thing as mystery, even if it is not obvious, but as long as it is a little bit, it can make people do their best to do something that they don't even expect.

"Then Mr. Bai, now there are still a few minutes before the official start time, I think we'd better go to the place where you put the twin mirrors to take a look, it's safer."

Qin Jian naturally has his own ideas when he says this, if what Bai Qianfeng said is true, someone really wants to play the idea of the twin mirrors, if this person is an outsider, the first thing that can be determined is that he doesn't know the location of Bai Qianfeng's twin mirrors, and the time when he might steal them is when Bai Qianfeng takes out the twin mirrors for exhibition.

In other words, before the art exhibition officially began, the person who wanted to steal conducted a small-scale investigation of Bai Qianfeng's home, and then found the location where the twin mirrors were hidden. Therefore, at this point in time, for Bai Qianfeng, he will soon take out the twin mirrors for display, and it seems to be the most appropriate time to take a look at whether the twin mirrors are still there at this time.

And for himself, just now he had already shown his ID and the note written by Director Bai himself to Bai Qianfeng, which was enough to prove that he was here to carry out security work and would not pay attention to the twin mirrors. According to the normal procedure, Bai Qianfeng should take himself to check it, which is also safer.

But he didn't expect Bai Qianfeng to answer Qin Jian like this:

"Oh, you don't have to worry about this matter, I have checked before I came to the hall on the first floor, the twin mirrors are in their original position, no one has touched them, you can rest assured of this."

"But Mr. Bai ......"

Qin Jian was about to say something, but Bai Qianfeng stretched out his right hand to stop.

"Okay, Officer Qin, I said that you don't have to worry about this matter, I guarantee with my personality that I have already checked the twin mirrors just now, and the art exhibition is about to start, Officer Qin should pay more attention to the surrounding environment." Then he was about to leave, and said to the man with ink-colored glasses behind him: "You go to find Miss, why hasn't she come out at this time?" ”

After Bai Qianfeng finished speaking, he left the glass case where the silver mask was placed, and walked towards the platform behind the landscape painting.

Qin Jian watched Bai Qianfeng walk towards the platform not far from him, he couldn't understand why Bai Qianfeng didn't take himself to check the twin mirrors, he had already shown his police card, he could prove his identity, he had no reason to be afraid of himself, if he was afraid that someone would follow him and see it, then he was too careful, a bodyguard and a policeman followed, was he still not at ease? He couldn't guess Bai Qianfeng's thoughts, but Qin Jian had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, and his keen intuition told him that this Bai family villa was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface.

After Bai Qianfeng left, Qin Jian took the opportunity to see Ling Yu who had gone down the stairs. There was also a woman in a dress in front of her, who looked to be about thirty years old, but wanted to look younger in her dress.

Ling Yu also saw himself standing in front of the glass cabinet, and then Chu Ming, who was not far away, took Shu Xiaoran's hand and walked over.

The four of them stood together again, and now there was still a little more than a minute before the start of the art exhibition, and at this time, the landscape painting in front of them was beginning to roll up on its own, and was moved to a certain place in the hall, just like Qin Jian had speculated before.

After that, the owner of the Bai family on the platform, Bai Qianfeng, stood on the platform, and there were two men with sunglasses behind him who were the same as just now. Bai Qianfeng took out the pocket watch in his arms and looked at the time.

There is still half a minute, and he has always had a good sense of time.

It's time!

Bai Qianfeng took a step forward, and everyone in the villa gathered towards Bai Qianfeng at the same time as a tacit understanding, and looked at Bai Qianfeng on the platform together. Fortunately, Ling Yu and the others came over in advance, so they stood at the front, otherwise they would definitely be squeezed and couldn't see anything.

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me."

Bai Qianfeng, who was standing on the platform, leaned closer to the microphone in front of him and said to all the people who came to the Bai Family Villa:

"Well, thank you for coming to participate in Bai's collection art exhibition in your busy schedule, and I would like to express my gratitude to everyone on behalf of everyone in the Bai family." He looked at the audience, as if he was looking for someone, maybe his daughter, but he didn't seem to find it, and then continued: "Then everyone who came to this art exhibition knows that we will have an auction of these artworks later, just before the art exhibition starts, everyone must have found their favorite artworks when they wandered around at will, and we will start the auction in a while." ”

Bai Qianfeng tidied up his bow tie, then coughed and moistened his throat, and then deliberately raised his voice:

"However, before I officially start, I want to take out a work of art for exhibition, and everyone knows what this art is, and some people seem to have come specifically for it."

"Twin Mirrors!"

After Bai Qianfeng finished speaking, the large and small voices in the audience were talking about the twin mirrors, which made the four Ling Yu standing in front of them suddenly feel a little noisy.

"That's right, it's the Twin Mirror!"

Bai Qianfeng continued: "Please pay attention to this small platform on my left. ”

After Bai Qianfeng finished speaking, everyone's eyes looked at the small platform on his left hand that was inlaid with gems and shimmered. After that, everyone was waiting for the appearance of the twin mirrors.

"Okay, now let's take a look at this rumored twin mirror!"

After Bai Qianfeng's voice fell, the platform began to change slightly, which caused a little touch in the hearts of everyone present, and their hearts seemed to start beating along with the platform that began to change.

After a while, from the golden stand behind the platform, a hardcover base covered with red silk cloth was pushed, which was also decorated with gems of various colors, and a circular outline was clearly highlighted through the red cloth.

At that position, Bai Qianfeng's left hand was just able to touch it, and then he stretched out his hand to remove the red cloth on it.

Everyone was waiting for the next scene of the twin mirrors to appear, their eyes fixed on the red cloth on the hardcover base, through the red cloth, their hearts began to have all kinds of fantasies about the appearance of the twin mirrors.

Seeing the eyes of the people in the audience, that kind of eager eyes, this is exactly what Bai Qianfeng wants to achieve, and in the next moment, he picked up the red cloth left and right, and ripped the red bula off in one fell swoop.

The expectant eyes of everyone in the audience became more and more coveted.

After the red cloth was pulled off, everyone looked at the object behind the red cloth. It's just that when they saw this object, they were exchanged for a burst of embarrassment, and even Bai Qianfeng, who was closest to the base, widened his eyes, not knowing what was going on!

On the hardcover base, there is an old prototype broken wood, worth only a few dollars, and the real twin mirrors are missing at this moment!
