Chapter 2: Crossing [2]
A strange feeling passed through Hua Xi's heart.
It's the first time we've met, but it's like ...... It's familiar.
Strange.
"In this excavation, I got a painting, which is very precious, and I hope you will protect it." The man spoke, his voice hoarse and deep.
A painting?
Hua Xi frowned, it wasn't that she underestimated it, but how valuable was a painting, and it was worth spending so much money to invite her?
Even if it's a famous Van Gogh painting, it's not worth it!
"Can I take a look at the painting first?"
Although thinking so, Hua Xi still said very professionally.
She has the skills to distinguish famous paintings that she has cultivated since childhood, and she can tell the truth at a glance.
The other party's bid was so high, it was not at all okay for her to be cautious.
If it's black and black, won't she suffer a big loss?
"Of course." The man nodded slightly, and the bodyguard pushed the wheelchair to the wall.
He stretched out his pale hand and checked his fingerprints on the hidden combination lock on the wall, and a door suddenly opened on the blank wall.
They walked in.
The secret room is not large, fifty square meters, and the four walls are all painted white, and there is no variegation at all.
On the wall due east, there is a figure painting about four feet long.
I heard that the cultural relics from the land have a history of more than 6,000 years, but the painting still maintains its original bright color, and it has not faded at all.
It seems to have just been painted.
The person in the painting is lifelike, looking forward to the brilliance, and is a girl in ancient costume.
The stunning appearance seems to come alive again through time and space.
Hua Xi was speechless from the moment she saw the girl in the painting.
"Wow! Boss, this is your past life! It's exactly like you! Lone Moon shouted in the back.
The woman in the painting is simply a costume version of the boss!
Hua Xi didn't seem to hear his voice, just walked slowly towards the painting step by step.
The girl in the painting looks at her and smiles.
She approached, her eyes slowly moving from the girl's face in the painting, which resembled hers, to a bracelet with a red string tied to a jade gourd on her wrist.
She also has the same bracelet on her wrist.
There was a lot of doubt in her heart, this bracelet was something she had been carrying since she was a child.
For so many years, no matter how expensive the jewelry she had, she was reluctant to replace it.
Because, this is the only thing that has a connection with her past.
Why is there a girl in this ancient painting?
There were too many doubts, so Hua Xi turned around, ready to ask the man.
And yet—
Click.
The sound of a pistol being loaded, cold and cruel.
Her eyebrows twitched slightly, and her eyes slowly turned forward.
It's Gu Yue, the one who pointed the gun at her head at this time is Gu Yue, who has been fighting side by side for so many years and was born and died together.
Ten years of partners, they have always given their backs to each other.
In this world, the only person she trusts shares life and death, shares blessings and misfortunes, and is closer than relatives.
"Hua Xi, I don't want this." Gu Yue whispered, with a little pain and trembling, "This mission is to lure you to this painting and assassinate you." ”
"For what?" Hua Xi is very calm, she has been licking blood from the knife for many years, and she has become accustomed to all life and death crises.
People like them, every day they open their eyes alive, they seem to have earned it back, but they didn't expect it to be Lone Yue......
"This man has what he has always wanted to get from above, and the condition he put forward is you, so ......"
Hua Xi turned his eyes and glanced at the man coldly.
