Chapter 460: Weird Photo Studio!

Li ...... Et? ”

"Teacher Ran, is it so coincidental?"

In front of Dongfanghong Square, Li Weidong had just finished taking a photo, and he saw a familiar figure coldly.

It just so happened that the other party also looked at him.

In other words, Li Weidong, who was holding a camera, made everyone who passed by him look at him with envy.

Previously, after Li Weidong handed over his things to Meng Dongqing, he continued to enjoy his 'vacation'.

In acting, there is no reason to give up halfway.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that in this place more than a thousand kilometers away from home, he could still meet acquaintances.

"Li Weidong, is it really you? How did you end up here? Don't you ...... too?"

Ran Qiuye is also a surprise look of meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign country.

Just now her companion pointed to this side, she looked at the side and looked a little familiar, so she couldn't help but lean forward, but she didn't expect it to be the person she remembered.

"I changed jobs not long ago, and this time I came here on a business trip with the leader."

Li Weidong casually 'explained'.

At the beginning, he only knew that Ran Qiuye came to the northwest to support the construction, but the problem was that the northwest was very large, and the great northwest was just a general name, including the area of several provinces.

Who would have thought that the other party would be assigned to Lan City and come here to play today.

What a coincidence.

"Akiba, can you introduce us to it?"

"Yes, this comrade is yours?"

Before Ran Qiuye could speak, two young women with long braids appeared behind her, looking at Li Weidong with curiosity on their faces, the key is that they couldn't see shyness, bold and eager.

"You two don't talk nonsense."

Ran Qiuye, who was teased, looked a little embarrassed.

"Hello, I am a fellow countryman with Teacher Ran, and she used to be my brother's teacher."

Li Weidong generously introduced.

"Oh, just a fellow? You really didn't come after Akiba? ”

One of the young women had a strong gossip heart, and looked at Li Weidong vigorously.

And the other one is more concerned about the camera in Li Weidong's hand.

After all, cameras are still a rarity these days.

"Dandan, what nonsense, Li Weidong and I are really just fellow countrymen."

Ran Qiuye pulled his companion who was asking, and at the same time showed an apologetic expression to Li Weidong.

Although Yan Bugui helped to make peace at the beginning, because the age gap between the two was too large, Ran Qiuye directly refused.

And she knows very well that the two are not people of the same world.

So even if Li Weidong's help made her feel more good about him later, she never thought of going further.

In her heart, maybe the two can become good friends, but they will definitely not become each other's other half.

When we meet now, she is more cordial.

"Teacher Ran, have you been assigned here?"

Li Weidong asked curiously.

"Yes, I was a primary school teacher in a place called Bali Town below Lan City, and I happened to be fine today, so I came to the city to buy something, I didn't expect to meet you by such a coincidence."

Ran Qiuye nodded.

"It's a coincidence, would you like to take a few photos for you?"

Li Weidong raised his camera.

"Ah, really? Thank you, we can give you money. ”

The young woman's eyes lit up as she had been staring at the camera.

"Will it cause you trouble?"

Ran Qiuye was obviously also a little moved, and behind her, another young woman pushed her vigorously.

"It's not a hassle, it's a good thing."

Li Weidong was worried that the three films given by Truci could not be finished.

And along the way, although he took a lot of photos, they were all about various buildings, and he didn't take pictures of himself, so he wouldn't pass on his photos.

In this way, after walking around a few places, the rest of the film was all digested.

Only then did the three daughters who realized it react and wanted to pay money to compensate Li Weidong, but Li Weidong refused, and finally pushed back and forth, and the three daughters decided to invite Li Weidong to dinner and pay for the photos themselves.

So after lunch, the group went to a photo studio.

They were received by a master, who was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw the camera hanging around Li Weidong's neck, but quickly covered it up.

However, Li Weidong felt the other party's emotions, surprised, confused, puzzled, and even worried.

This discovery made Li Weidong's eyes squint slightly.

Especially a certain smell on the other party, it gives him a feeling of 'familiarity'.

"Master, please help us wash some photos."

Chen Ping was the first to say.

She was the young woman who was staring at Li Weidong's camera before, and she was also the most interested in the comparison.

"Do you have a letter of introduction?"

The old master asked.

"Yes, we are teachers in Bali Town, and this is our letter of introduction."

Chen Ping immediately took out a letter of introduction from her pocket.

Nowadays, without an ID, this letter of introduction is the best pass.

Accommodation, car rides, and even buying some special items are all needed for this stuff.

"Oh, teacher, you register first, and get the picture in three days."

The old master took the letter of introduction and looked at it casually.

"Three days? Can't you just take it today? ”

Chen Ping couldn't help but ask.

She can't see the photos of herself right now, how can she have the patience to wait for three days.

"We have to clean the photos here, they just washed yesterday, and you can only wait three days if you want to get the photos."

As the old master spoke, he swept over Li Weidong without a trace.

At this time, Li Weidong pretended to look at the photo studio.

There are also a number of photos hanging on the wall, several of which have obvious urban characteristics, and there is a line of small print below the photos: 1951-3-10-Huangpu River.

"Master, who took this photo?"

Li Weidong asked, pointing to the photo.

"This one was taken by the previous owner, our photo studio has been here for some years, and it moved here from Shanghai nine years ago, but since the joint venture, the owner has returned to Shanghai."

The old master said nonchalantly.

"Why did you move here?"

Li Weidong asked curiously.

"The decision of the owner, those of us who are buddies are not clear."

The old master shook his head.

"That's right."

Li Weidong did not continue to ask.

After just a few questions, he basically got the information he wanted.

First of all, the other party has always been wary of him.

Secondly, there is no respect for his former owner between words, and he is indifferent, as if he is talking about a person who does not exist.

If you add the strangeness of the other party staring at the camera hanging around his neck after he came in, it can basically be concluded that there is something wrong with the person in front of him.

Li Weidong didn't know whether to say that he was lucky or unlucky.

When I met Ran Qiuye, I didn't say anything, I came to wash a photo, and I met Truci's 'accomplice' again.

That's right, it's Trutz's 'accomplice'.

What Li Weidong can be sure of is that the other party must have seen the camera hanging around his neck and knew who the owner of the camera was.

If that's all there is, it's actually nothing, because it's impossible for Trutz to bring too much film, so it's bound to be bought locally, and it just so happens that it's nothing in this photo studio.

Therefore, the other party has seen Trutz and knows this camera, which can be explained completely.

The brand name of this camera is Leica, and even Li Weidong is a layman who knows the rarity of this heirloom camera.

In China, especially in Lanshi, it is estimated that there is only such a Leica camera.

The other party's initial emotions may be explained by his stealing of Trutz's camera.

But then, when Li Weidong kept probing, the other party's reaction was a little strange.

Moreover, if the other party really thinks that he stole Trutz's camera, he can ask him where the camera came from, in this photo studio, there is not only one guy, but the road at the door is full of people.

shouted to catch the thief, and it is estimated that half the street can be stood up.

But instead of doing so, the other party deliberately pretended not to recognize the camera.

And what it takes three days to wash the photos, it is estimated that it is also a disguise.

If there was no problem with Truci, Li Weidong would not think much about it, but his side would have locked the other party a long time ago.

Another point is that this photo studio was moved from Shanghai nine years ago.

Under normal circumstances, who would have moved a photo studio to this place?

You must know that nine years ago, this place was not as large as it is now, and compared with Shanghai, it was even more of a poor and remote country.

But the problem is that just ten years ago, China just passed the first five-year plan, and put a number of key projects here, really started the big construction, and the status of Lan City was suddenly highlighted.

In other words, in the second year of this plan, the photo studio moved here from Shanghai.

Is this a suspicion?

Normally, it definitely doesn't count, but Li Weidong just knew from the other party's mouth that the other party didn't know why the owner of the photo studio moved here, is it possible?

Again, after the joint venture, the former owner of the photo studio actually ran back to Shanghai?

Is it because you're not used to staying here?

Or is this so-called owner a puppet at all?

In the end, coupled with the other party's reaction, Li Weidong can completely conclude that this photo studio has a big problem.

And the master in front of him was also a line buried here early on, and it wasn't until Truci came here that he activated the other party and started to contact.

So, here's the problem.

Those photos taken by Trutz really didn't circulate?

After all, he must have been here more than once by buying film or chemicals to develop photos, and he could give the negatives of those photos to the other party without realizing it, and then the other party would send them to Shanghai Hai.

In this way, returning to the owner of the Shanghai side has become a point connecting the two sides.

As the owner before the joint venture, the other party occasionally comes back to see the photo studio, and then brings some film or photos back, is it nothing?

It must be difficult, if not impossible, to send things abroad directly from here, but what if it is sent abroad from Shanghai?

I'm afraid, it's really easy.

Thinking about this, Li Weidong's heart couldn't help but sink.
