Chapter 164: Lost and Found

The news that the female donor wanted to find her relatives soon spread to the dean through Xu Wei, and the dean immediately contacted the police for help.

The female donor was very grateful, but she offered to wait for the results of the appraisal before dealing with her personal affairs.

With the previous bag dropping, this appraisal work was carried out very carefully and carefully, and the results naturally did not come out soon.

When Lu Li returned to the appraisal room, he saw Lin Lin sitting on a chair in the corner, he looked a little tired, sitting there with his eyes closed and rubbing his eyes.

The experts of the appraisal team seemed to be discussing a certain issue, and Lu Li saw Hou Boping talking and gesturing on the painting case, and he could see that everyone was extremely serious.

Lu Li looked at Lin Lin in the corner again, and always felt that his current state was not so right, but he couldn't say what was wrong, anyway, seeing him like this, his heart was not so steady.

I don't know where her insecurity came from.

Lu Li walked towards Lin Lone, and when he was about to reach his side, Lin Lone opened his eyes.

"Is there any progress on the identification?" Lu Li walked to Lin Lian's side and asked him in a low voice, looking at the group of people around the painting case when he asked.

Lin Lin replied in a lower voice: "It's going well, but the time is definitely not short, your interview is over?" After he asked, his eyes swept around the appraisal room, but he didn't see the female donor.

"Ms. Baili went back to the hotel to rest." Lu Li guessed that he was looking for a female donor.

Lin Lin nodded and didn't speak, staring at the air in front of him with a somewhat empty look, unable to see what he was thinking.

"Don't you need to be identified?" Lu Li asked a little speechlessly.

Lin Lin glanced at her, "For such an important job, I just do auxiliary work, do you want to follow the shooting here all the time?" ”

Lu Li glanced at Xu Wei, "I don't know, maybe." ”

Lin Lin didn't answer again, Lu Li waited, and then returned to his colleague to continue working.

Lu Li left the appraisal room very late this day and went home, the appraisal work is temporarily over and will continue tomorrow, Xu Wei asked Lu Li to come back tomorrow and continue to follow the shooting.

Xu Wei and his colleagues were very happy, and everyone hoped to hear the good news that the appraisal results were originals as soon as possible.

Lu Li is also in the same mood as everyone else, looking forward to the good news.

But the good news was long overdue.

Lu Li and his colleagues would be asked by their colleagues how far the appraisal had been carried out and how long it would take for the results to be released, and they could not answer.

Two days later, the good news came, the appraisal team gave the results, and Ms. Baili donated the "Immortal Battle Map" to the Palace Museum free of charge, which was determined to be the original and genuine.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they had finally experienced how the national treasure that had been lost so quickly was recovered, especially Hou Boping and the older generation, who were even more emotional.

When the hospital organized everyone to have a dinner to celebrate, Lin Lin was not there, and after he participated in the appraisal of "Immortal Battle Map", he fell ill with a severe cold.

Xu Wei saw that Lu Li began to be absent-minded after hearing the news, so he proposed to go to see Lin Li, and called Lu Li to be with the interns in the copying room.

Everyone was waiting for the elevator downstairs at Lin Lone's house, and as soon as the elevator came down, the people walking outside made them all stunned.

Xu Wei looked at the female donor who had just stepped out of the elevator, "Ms. Baili, hello!" How did you end up here? ”

Ms. Baili glanced at Lu Li and replied with a smile that she was here to visit the patient.

Lu Li remembered Lin Lian's expression when he rushed to pick up the donor, and wondered if there was anything else between this Baili lady and Lin Lin in addition to the relationship at work.

Xu Wei also knew about the return of "Immortal Battle Map", this female donor found Lin Lin to match, and these days she has not had much time to think about the relationship between Lin Lin and this donor.

Now looking at the female donor who came to visit the patient, Xu Wei also felt the subtlety of the relationship between them, and thought about looking at Lu Li.

Lu Li's face was quite cold, and she didn't talk to Ms. Baili all the time, and when the female donor said that she had something to leave, she took a step back to the side, but she still didn't say anything.

However, when Ms. Baili walked in front of Lu Li, she deliberately smiled at her and nodded, but before Lu Li could react, the person had already walked over.

Everyone got into the elevator and went upstairs.

When Lin Lin opened the door for everyone, he looked straight at Lu Li, who was standing at the back, Lu Li was a little cramped by him, his eyes averted, and he lowered his head and followed everyone into the house.

When I entered the door, I saw Lin Lone's equipment hanging needles at home in the living room, everyone asked him about his condition, Lin Lone coughed and put on a mask before talking to everyone, he still had a fever, but he was much better.

When everyone was looking for a place to sit down, Lin Li's eyes chased Lu Li, and when Lu Li and Xu Wei sent the fruits they brought to the kitchen, they looked up and saw Lin Li's gaze, and she didn't avoid it this time.

Lu Li smiled vaguely at Lin Lone, thinking that this was the first time she came to Lin Lone's residence, the two of them were really interesting, many things that would happen between couples only happened after they broke up.

Poisonous.

Lu Li's temples twitched, and he retracted his gaze and walked over to the place where everyone was sitting.

After sitting for half an hour, everyone was ready to leave, afraid that it would affect Lin Li's rest after a long time, after all, he was sick now.

Lin Lin didn't leave everyone behind, saying that he was afraid of infection, and when he got better, he would ask everyone to get together.

Lu Li followed everyone to the door to put on their shoes and prepare to leave, Xu Weiluo was still talking to Lin Lin at the end, and Lu Li heard them mention the Baili lady.

Lin Lin had been coughing, and the voice of the answer could obviously be heard without much strength, and Lu Li only heard him clearly that the female donor had a relationship with the older generation of his family, so he returned to China to donate the national treasure this time to find him to help pull the strings.

"But the "Immortal Battle Picture" was taken abroad by a cultural relics reselling group, how did she get that painting, have you asked?" Xu Wei finally asked this question in his heart.

Lu Li turned his head to look at them, not knowing how Lin Lin would answer.

Lin Lin coughed heavily several times before answering: "Of course I asked, Ms. Baili has always been a senior collector, and she got the "Immortal Battle Picture" at a private auction abroad, and later learned the origin of the painting, so she decided to send the national treasure back to China." ”

His nasal voice seemed to be heavier when he spoke.

Xu Wei didn't ask any more questions, and told Lin Lin to say goodbye and leave with everyone after having a good rest at home. Lin Lin stood at the door and watched them enter the elevator, and no one saw him open his mouth several times to speak under the cover of his mask.

He wanted to stop Lu Li, but he endured it.

After closing the door and sitting back on the sofa where the needle was applied, Lin Li's mobile phone rang, he glanced at the caller ID, took off his mask with a gloomy expression, and answered the phone.

A woman's gentle voice came out of the receiver of the phone: "Your colleague is gone? ”

Lin Lin glanced out of the floor-to-ceiling window, "Hmm." ”

"Didn't they tell you that they ran into me in the elevator downstairs when they came?"

Lin Lin turned his gaze to the door of his house, "No." He didn't want to say a word, and he wasn't going to ask anything.

It's just that after listening to Ms. Baili's words just now, the scene of Lu Li and Ms. Baili staring at each other appeared in front of him, and the Adam's apple rolled up and down hard.

After a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, Ms. Baili spoke again: "I'm leaving Mukden in three days, and it's a pity that you can't go to the airport to see me off in your current body." ”

The corners of Lin Li's mouth twitched, and he smiled coldly at the air, "This time, will you come back?" ”

"Do you want me back?" Ms. Baili's inquiring tone was full of anticipation.

Lin Lian's jaw tightened, and he gritted his teeth before he spoke: "Next time you come back, we should go to grandpa's cemetery to have a look." ”

After a few more seconds of silence, the voice on the other end of the phone said: "I'll take care of things and come back as soon as possible, after all, there is something I lost and regained here...... You watch your body and wait for me to come back. ”

Lin Lin opened his mouth, squeezed out of his throat and replied, "I'll wait for you." ”

Just as she was about to end the call, Ms. Baili suddenly shouted to wait a minute, Lin Lin frowned and waited to hear what she had to say.

"I forgot to ask you one thing, Lu Guowei's daughter, that girl named Lu Li, is there anything else she has with you besides work?"

Lin Lin listened to it, and a strange sense of unease crossed his heart.
