Chapter 172: Investigation
In the evening, a club on the outskirts of X City.
Probably due to the poor location, this clubhouse is rarely visited on weekdays, but today it is brightly lit and very lively.
"Sir, miss, I'll tell you the truth, this level of antique auctions are rare now," the waiter who led the way said with a deep mouth, "The origin of these antiques is not ordinary......
The man behind him raised his hand slightly and stopped his words: "Let's not talk about this, what do you mean by this cloak and mask?" ”
"This, it's specially set to protect the privacy of the guests," the waiter said with a smile, "The origin of some antiques is unclear, wearing masks to do business, only recognizing money and not people, we can both rest assured, don't you say?" ”
The man didn't say anything, but the little girl next to him spoke: "You dare to sell things of unknown origin?" Aren't you afraid of being caught? ”
Her voice was soft and soft, obviously questioning, but it sounded as non-offensive as a child's question, the waiter smiled "hehe", and said mysteriously: "We are just an auction intermediary, everything is commissioned to be auctioned, to put it bluntly, even if there is any problem with the auction item, it has nothing to do with our auction house...... Come, both of you, please. ”
When Shen Jinchu heard his answer, he pursed his lips dissatisfiedly and muttered in a low voice, "Brother Jiang, this person is not reasonable at all." ”
"Then don't listen to his nonsense," Jiang Yu fiddled with the cloak he was wearing with a little disgust, "Don't run around by yourself later, safety first, you know?" ”
Shen Jinchu nodded as if the chicken pecked rice, followed Jiang Yu closely, and carefully looked around by the way.
The review of buyers in this auction is very strict, and those who can receive the invitation letter are all powerful families in X City, Xing Jingwu can't get in, so he has to ask Shen Jinchu to see if she can figure out the origin of this batch of lots and the purpose of the people behind them.
And Jiang Yu was naturally not at ease with Shen Jinchu, so he had to accompany her "reluctantly".
The auction took place in the hall on the second floor of the clubhouse, which had been clearly remodeled, with many small cubicles set up separately and one-way glass, so that those inside could see the outside, but the outside could not see inside.
"It's a private room for two, drinks and fruit are at your disposal on the table, and if you need anything else, ring the bell and there will be a waiter ready to serve you."
After the waiter brought the person into the private room, he bowed slightly to the two of them, and then turned around and left without stopping, Jiang Yu closed the door, searched in the corner of the private room for a while, and after confirming the existence of no monitors and monitors, he said to Shen Jinchu: "You have also read the propaganda brochure, do you see any clues?" ”
Shen Jinchu pursed his lips and shook his head: "Judging from the brochure, the batch of antiques they put up for auction is almost exactly the same as the one stored in the association, it is difficult to tell the difference with the naked eye, I have to see the real thing to judge." ”
"Okay, Shizuo's side is ready, once you find any clues, he will investigate as soon as possible."
As soon as the man's words fell, there was a knock on the door of the private room from outside.
"Is it Mr. Jiang and Miss Shen?" A gentle voice rang out outside the door, "Can I come in and sit down?" ”
