Chapter 021: Scam

Luton also wants to know the answer?

This is obviously a strange answer, not even an answer.

If a person doesn't even know why he is doing things, he is probably deceiving others.

"I have to say, Mr. Luden, the story is whimsical, but."

The history professor shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly,

"As the conversation progresses, your credibility is getting less and less, and I can almost judge that this is a joke that isn't funny?"

On any crucial issue, Luton has made recusals, and each evasion has diminished his credibility.

Let him go out and do a test, he won't do it.

Let him tell the story of these historical objects, he will not tell.

He didn't even say why he was here.

This is not a liar, who is a liar?

They're smart people, the history professor says because he wants to push Ludden.

If Ludon wants this game to continue, he must say more valuable information.

Apparently, Ludon understands this as well.

"A good story deserves a good drink, doesn't it?"

Luton looked at John and asked,

"Would you mind bringing some more wine?"

Although the meeting was convened by Ludon, John was the host here.

John didn't hesitate, "Absolutely glad." ”

He turned and went to the cellar to get wine.

Taking this opportunity, Ludon stealthily tapped on the handrail to make a noise, attracting the attention of the history professor.

Everyone else was looking at the various antiquities, and Meg was studying the painting, not noticing the small movements of Ludon and the history professor.

I saw Ludon dip his fingertips in wine and draw a character on the armrest.

Seeing this symbol, the historian was stunned.

This is the symbol of the security team in the fog era, which is not recognized by ordinary people at all, and can only be recognized at a glance by professionals who are proficient in history and especially fond of the fog era.

Seeing the surprise in the eyes of the historian, Ludon pressed down with his palm, wiped it out, and the water trail was removed, and nothing happened.

The historian glanced at Ludon meaningfully.

He didn't understand for a while, what message did the other party want to convey to him?

Does it mean that Ludon knows the history of the fog capital very well?

Did he ever play an important role in the fog?

No, neither.

If Ludon wanted to deliver this kind of message, he could have said it generously!

He can even say the nonsense that he is an eternal, is it difficult to make up an experience of the fog?

Wouldn't it be better to prove yourself by sharing such experiences?

Therefore, the focus is not on the fog capital, but on the security forces?!

Ludon used this symbol to transmit information in order to encrypt it, and only he knew what this symbol represented in the audience.

Security Corps. Security Corps.

Is Luton a member of the vigilante?

But what does this have to do with tonight's events?

He's here to investigate the case?

The people of the security team looked into the case, and it didn't sound like a problem.

The history professor felt that the truth was in front of his eyes, but he was always separated by a thin veil that made him unable to see clearly.

What case is it worth Ludon to go undercover in person, participate in this John's party, and ask for help in this way?

The history professor looked around, hoping to get some clues from the cabin.

When the history professor's gaze fell on the painting, Meg was still muttering,

"This must be the real thing, a Van Gogh work that has never been seen before, oh my God, this value."

Eternals, priceless paintings, vigilantes.

All the clues are connected in one line!

The history professor was stunned, he thought of some possibility!

A never-before-seen, well-preserved Van Gogh work is not in a state of exaggeration to describe it as priceless.

In Meg's eyes, she would never look away in such a matter!

If the story of the Eternals comes true and the painting is true, who benefits the most?

The owner of the painting - John!

Ludon was just taking on the false name of an eternal, but John had an entire log house of antiques!

These antiques were given by an eternal, and their authenticity was verified by their connoisseurs, and any item sold here could be exchanged for money that John could not spend for ten years!

The story of the Eternals is absurd, but they don't believe it.

Stories can be fake but. Paintings can also be fake!

But how do you make a fake painting real?

This requires a plausible excuse

If there is no Ludon tonight, how will things go?

John gathers everyone together, and people come to this wooden house, and slowly they will discover some strange places, Meg will definitely notice the painting, and John will start telling a story.

The story is simple, John was the Eternal and had lived for 14,000 years.

There may be a heated debate in the crowd, and whatever question they ask, John will easily resolve it.

The matter of eternal life cannot be confirmed or falsified.

And after leaving the cabin, John will evaporate, just as he has created for himself, an eternal who often moves.

This painting will be sold through the hands of someone present!

Sell for a sky-high price!

Of course, historians don't believe in such an absurd story, and the buyer of the painting won't believe it in their hearts, but this story adds a background story to the painting, adds a mystery, and makes the value of the painting even higher!

Everything became clear.

As a member of the vigilante, Luton had apparently come to track down John's scam, and they might have received the news a long time ago, or it had happened more than once.

The history professor remembers that John had said before that it was not the first time he had done something like this.

If the previous victim reported the crime, the vigilante found clues and finally named John as a suspect.

Everything makes sense.

The history professor breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason, he was well-informed, had seen many deceptions in history and reality, and knew what this thing was all about.

If John had been greedy, he would have found a way to sell the painting for a high price, and Meg was a good subject to help John find a suitable buyer.

But Luden's appearance disrupted John's plans.

John was a wise man, and of course he knew that the comers were not good.

In order to get out, John will definitely make concessions and compromises.

He may donate these 'antiques' or dispose of them in some other way, but he will not keep them in his own hands.

Historians believe that the contents of this room should be both true and false, not all true, and not all fake.

Of course, the most valuable thing, the painting, must be fake!

And John is ostensibly going to dispose of all this, and secretly, someone will come to John and offer a tempting price to buy back a fake.

The history professor leaned back, tucked his back into the couch, and sat in the most comfortable position possible.

He has seen through this game and occupied the high ground of IQ.

Next, just watch John's performance!

Holding the barrel, John returned to the crowd again.

As soon as he put the barrel down, his first words made the corners of the history professor's mouth rise.

But I heard John say,

"I'm going to donate all these things that Mr. Lutdon gave me."

As the author, I declare that the short-term end plan has failed. The Breeze Thief took full responsibility for the failure of the plan and was demoted to the author of the crumbs. I started the mid-term completion plan as a crumb author, and the minimum number of words (100,000 words) remained unchanged.
