unrivaled gymnastics
Chapter 130: The Sword Master × Gu Riri
Gu Xuyang kicked the accelerator, and the police car sped up like a rocket breaking through the night.Xiao Zhou in the passenger seat screamed hysterically.
"Is it necessary to be so fast?!" Xiao Zhou grabbed his deputy and screamed terribly. Gu Xuyang felt that if he kept shouting like this, passers-by would doubt whether they were policemen or victims.
"Is this your first time participating in an operation?" Gu Xuyang tried his best to cover Xiao Zhou's screams with his roar.
"That's right!" Xiao Zhou's tears fluttered backwards in the night wind.
There were chaotic voices on the intercom.
"Target turns left onto Hubin Road, repeat, target turns left onto Hubin Road."
Gu Xuyang grabbed the walkie-talkie: "Got it, No. [-] is outflanking from the north of Hubin Road."
Xiao Zhou covered his chest and nestled in the seat with a face full of despair: "I didn't expect this kind of gunfight and car chase scene to happen in reality! I always thought it was a plot only in movies!"
"Art comes from reality!" Gu Xuyang said in an old-fashioned tone, as if this kind of scene was already common to him.
……How can it be!Even Gu Xuyang hasn't seen many gun fights and car chases!He was actually nervous to death, but in order to put on a show in front of Xiao Zhou, he could only bite the bullet and talk and laugh.His hand holding the steering wheel kept shaking, and there was a strange taste in his mouth, maybe he vomited when he didn't pay attention.The only consolation is that Xiao Zhou showed reverence in his eyes, which made Gu Xuyang's hard work of pretending not in vain.
10 minutes ago, a hearse suddenly went crazy on the city road, hit several innocent vehicles in a row, and then drove in the reverse direction into the east-west elevated highway, ignoring the traffic police's warning, and began to run wildly on the elevated highway.In order to avoid this out-of-control hearse, numerous accidents happened to passing vehicles on the elevated road, and the traffic is now completely paralyzed.Gu Xuyang, who happened to be nearby, was called to help. When necessary, he needed to subdue the driver with his own martial arts to avoid more unnecessary casualties.
"Don't ask me to do everything just because I know martial arts..." Gu Xuyang murmured.
The police car drove up the lakeside road in the opposite direction, ready to intercept, but the crazy hearse was even faster, passing Gu Xuyang directly, roaring into the neon lights of the night.
Gu Xuyang opened the car door: "Xiao Zhou, come and drive!"
"Huh?!" Xiao Zhou seemed to see the end of his life.
"It's too bad if it enters the downtown area! I'll try to subdue the driver, you just promise to chase it!"
Although the night was getting dark, there was still a lot of traffic in the bustling urban area. Gu Xuyang couldn't imagine how much damage that crazy hearse would cause.
He jumped onto the roof and crouched down.While Xiao Zhou yelled with unknown meaning, he moved to the driver's seat with difficulty.
Although Xiao Zhou was crying and howling, he did not lose the chain at the critical moment and approached the hearse smoothly and quickly.Gu Xuyang guessed that he might not be afraid, but just wanted to practice his voice.
The distance between the two cars gradually narrowed. Gu Xuyang gathered strength on the soles of his feet and was about to jump onto the roof of the hearse. Unexpectedly, the hearse suddenly flicked its tail. Xiao Zhou didn't react, and just passed the truck.
"What kind of snake skin is moving?!" Xiao Zhou's voice raised an octave, and he slammed the steering wheel. Gu Xuyang was almost thrown off by him and died heroically.There was nothing honorable about this way of dying.
"I'm still on top! Don't throw me off!" Gu Xuyang thumped the roof of the car.
"Otherwise we won't be able to catch up! The hearse will drift!"
The hearse looked heavy and heavy, but unexpectedly it acted dexterously, throwing off several police cars in a row.Because Xiao Zhou was placed in a row just now, the distance between the two cars became wider and wider.Gu Xuyang secretly scolded himself for being poor at lightness kung fu, if his skill was as good as Gu Xiaofei's... No, it would be enough to be as good as the 8 of spades, wouldn't this distance be within reach?
As soon as the hearse was about to be chased away, a fiery red shadow suddenly appeared on the road ahead.
The night was getting dark, Gu Xuyang couldn't see it clearly, he just thought it was a woman in red.
The nearby intersection should have been under martial law. How did she come to this road?Are you a nearby resident?Leaning in the middle of the road like a triangular cone, what on earth is she trying to do?
"Citizens in front, please get out of the way!" Xiao Zhou turned on the loudspeaker.
Not only did the woman not give way, but she put on a posture, drew a long silver sword from her back, and tapped the tip of the sword gently on the ground.
Gu Xuyang's heart rose to his throat.She will definitely be knocked into the air!In this kind of police and bandit chasing car gun battle, civilian casualties occur, where will the police face?The priority now is not to stop the driver, but to save the citizens!
He quickly estimated the relative speed of the two cars. If he rushed over to throw the woman away, there should be still time...
Gu Xuyang touched his toes, Xiao Zhou only heard a loud noise above his head, and when he looked again, the roof of the car had already been dented, and Gu Xuyang jumped up, leaping towards the woman like an eagle hitting the sky.
The hearse suddenly accelerated!The driver seemed to have sensed Gu Xuyang's attack, and stepped on the gas pedal to the end deliberately provocatively.
Gu Xuyang, who was soaring into the air, had nowhere to rely on. After all, there is no light skill in the world where he steps on his own helix to lift into the air.He didn't have time to change his posture, he could only watch the hearse run over the woman.
"Humph."
He seemed to hear the woman sneer.
At the moment when she was about to collide with the hearse, the woman quickly took a step forward, and raised the long sword vertically in her hand.
There was a flash of silver light in the dark night, and a sharp sword wind rushed towards the hearse.Gu Xuyang, who was in mid-air, was blown so hard by the sword wind that he flew backwards, and then hit the glass of the police car behind him impartially, and his whole body was embedded in the spider web-shaped crack.
And the hearse was split into two by the sword wind!The two halves of the car pass by the woman on the left and right, like a river divided by mountains.The woman was not injured at all, and without looking at the wreckage of the hearse that sparked with the ground behind her, she returned her sword and walked towards the police car surrounded by Gu Xuyang like a leisurely stroll.
Xiao Zhou hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but the police car continued to slide forward due to the speed of the car.The woman raised her right foot and stepped on the bumper of the police car with a "bang", forcing the car to stop.
Gu Xuyang groaned# moaned.His eyes stared at the stars, and he only hoped that a medical soldier would come to give him a blood transfusion.
"Injured? You martial arts practitioners are not so fragile, are you?"
A familiar voice came from overhead.
Gu Xuyang moaned# Moaned louder.He said how could there be innocent women in the world who ran into the middle of the road for no reason and waited to be hit by a car... because that person was neither innocent nor innocent, and most importantly, he was not a woman at all!
"Why are you here!" Gu Xuyang rolled on the ground with his head in his arms.
"If you are in the mood to act like a baby, it seems that you are not injured." Louis lifted Gu Xuyang by the collar and put him on the hood of the police car.
Xiao Zhou jumped out of the car, set up an awning to look at the wreckage of the hearse emitting smoke in the distance, and sighed in awe: "The big guy in women's clothing is amazing! I'm sorry!"
"Excellent award." Louis said politely to him.
"Xiao Zhou! Hurry up and handcuff this suspicious person with a controlled knife!" Gu Xuyang yelled.
Louis showed his sword to Xiao Zhou: "It's not a control knife, it's not sharpened."
Xiao Zhou was amazed: "Did you just split that car in half with sword energy? It's amazing!"
"Much praise, praise praise!" Louis continued to be polite to him.
"Xiao Zhou! How did you reach a consensus with the enemy? Hurry up and handcuff him!"
"Oh, how can you call this brave international friend an 'enemy'? He has no self-interested motives, travels all the way to China, and regards the cause of the Chinese people as his own. What kind of thing is this? the spirit of!"
Who said he didn't have self-interested motives!His every move is full of the color of harming others and benefiting himself, okay?Gu Xuyang roared in his heart, but the pain in his chest made him unable to speak a word, so he could only suck his nose and squeeze out a few tears mixed with aggrieved and painful tears.
"Look, he was moved to tears by your spirit!" Xiao Zhou said to Louis.
***
"People who practice martial arts are strong and strong, and the car was smashed by you, but you didn't get hurt at all."
Gu Xuyang was admitted to the hospital with honor, and after some examinations, he was politely invited out by the doctor: "If you are not sick or injured, don't take up medical resources. Our beds are very tight here."
"Doctor, are you sure I'm not injured?!" Gu Xuyang grabbed the doctor's hand and burst into tears, "Could it be an internal injury? Do you want to stop looking?"
The doctor stared at him carefully for three seconds with his eyes wide open.
"Not hurt."
Gu Xuyang wanted to cry but had no tears.
Although it is not a good thing to be injured, Gu Xuyang actually looks forward to being hospitalized very much.At least the hospital will strictly control the visitors during the hospitalization, so that he will not be harassed by Louis.
Thanks to Xiao Zhou's big mouth, everyone now knows that he's having an affair with a "women's big guy from the city of romance".Every day when he goes to work, he can get a lot of weird eyes.It was the first time that Gu Xuyang felt such a great pressure in the workplace environment for so many years.
Walking out of the hospital, as expected, he saw Louis driving his luxury car to pick him up again.Gu Xuyang wanted to sneak away before Louis noticed him, but Louis' eyes were obviously much better than his!
"Gu! I'm here! I'm here to pick you up!" he yelled.
Gu Xuyang heard the conversation between a mother and child beside him.
Child: "Mom, that aunt's voice is so rough! Is she an uncle or an aunt?"
Mom: "Shh! Don't point at people! It's rude!"
Well, even children's eyes are better than mine!Gu Xuyang thought weakly.When I saw Louis for the first time, I didn't recognize him as a man disguised as a woman!
Gu Xuyang covered his face with the medical records, and quickly got into Louis' car.It is obviously a matter of face to have a luxury car, but he is afraid of being recognized, as if he and Louis have some shady relationship.
"What are you doing here?!" he asked through gritted teeth.
"Pick you up. You got hurt because of me!"
"There is no mouth! First of all, I am not injured, I am very good! Secondly, I am not for you..."
"Of course it's for me." Louis put on his sunglasses happily, "Didn't you jump out to save me from the wheel?"
"No! I... I didn't recognize that it was you at all! I thought it was an ordinary citizen! If I had known it was you, I would have ignored it!"
"You have so much confidence in me?" Louis was very pleasantly surprised.
"No, I just hope that you and the drifting hearse two old monsters will lose both sides, and then I will get a big deal."
"Damn it, why are you thinking about taking advantage of others all day long?" Lu Yi bumped Gu Xuyang with his elbow and teased.
Gu Xuyang rolled his eyes towards the sky: "I can only pick up poop from you, okay?"
"You... so you like that kind of play..." Louis said in disbelief, "But it doesn't matter, as long as it's what you like, I'm willing to accompany you!"
"Please shut up!" Gu Xuyang felt on the verge of collapse.
"Which mouth are you referring to?" Louie blinked.
"Why can you speak pornography anytime and anywhere? Don't you foreigners have strict control over sexual harassment? Did you flee to commit crimes abroad because you were accused in your own country?"
"You really know how to joke. He is a real French gentleman."
"I see, French gentleman, right! Your skirt is not convincing!"
Louis suddenly withdrew his smile and was slightly sullen: "I have worked so hard to save you, so will you repay me with this attitude?"
Gu Xuyang's throat tightened, thinking how this person can change his face faster than turning the pages of a book, the heart of a woman... no, the heart of a lady-dressing boss is indeed a needle in the sea.One second he was talking and joking and making jokes, but the next second he wanted to stab him to death with his eyes.Did he say something inappropriate to irritate Louis?But after thinking about it for a long time, Gu Xuyang couldn't figure out that he touched the big brother's back scale.
If they compete with each other, Gu Xuyang can chatter and fight with others for a whole day, but once the other party turns cold, Gu Xuyang immediately dies down.
"Uh, don't be angry, did I say something wrong? Don't you know me well? I speak out loud..."
Louis snorted: "You did talk a lot, but it was all nonsense. I haven't heard the only useful sentence so far."
Gu Xuyang writhed uncomfortably.He was silent for a while, only the regular roar of the engine remained in the car.When the unbearable silence was about to reach the critical point, he reluctantly opened his mouth.
"Thank you."
The sound was so small that it was almost drowned out by the sound of the engine, but Louis still heard it.
The cold expression melted away, and the smile crawled back to the corners of his lips.
Gu Xuyang propped his chin and stared out of the window, not paying attention to Louis' expression.
"Well, but then again, why are you there?"
"It must be the red thread of fate that binds us together!"
"……honestly."
"I asked Xiao Zhou to report your every move. I know you are in trouble, so I'll help you by the way."
Xiao Zhou, you two or five boy!Wash your neck and wait for death!Gu Xuyang pinched his knuckles until they crackled.
"Wait, what do you want to do, this direction is not going back to my home, nor to my work!" Gu Xuyang was vigilant and found that they had embarked on the wrong life path.
"Don't worry, it's not going back to my house."
"Nonsense, is your home on the other side of the world?"
Their destination is a five-star hotel.Louis parked the car at the door, and the doorman politely stepped forward to open the door for them.Gu Xuyang accepted the hotel service with mixed feelings.With his salary level, I am afraid that he will miss this kind of place for the rest of his life.Once again he had a fuller sense of Louie's deep pockets.The rotten atmosphere of capitalism made him jealous to the point of separation.
Louis did not enjoy the thoughtful service of the doorman.He jumped out of the car and almost knocked the doorman into the air.
"Should I stop for you, sir?"
Louis threw the car keys to the doorman, admiring Gu Xuyang's dumbfounded expression from under the sunglasses.
"The service staff in a five-star hotel are extraordinary! They can actually tell that you are a man!"
"I live here." Louie smiled.
"Also said that we are not going back to your house!"
"You wouldn't call a hotel 'home,' would you?" Louie said, "but if you like this place, I can buy it and turn it into our love nest."
"...I don't know whether to complain about your local tyrant or your disgust."
Louis walked into the hotel first.Gu Xuyang shrank his neck and followed him, feeling like his little follower.
They went into the elevator, where a waiter was waiting.
"Welcome back, Monsieur de Lière." The waiter nodded to them with a smile, "Go back to your room?"
"Yes. Is what I want ready?"
"It has been sent to your room."
Gu Xuyang looked at them blankly as if watching a fairy speak.
Louis' room is the top floor river view suite.Two well-ironed suits hung side by side on hangers, with dust covers over them.Louis looked at the labels, picked up one of the labels and threw it to Gu Xuyang.
"Put it on, we're going to a charity reception later."
"Huh?" Gu Xuyang asked in black.
"Aren't you willing to go with me?" Louis raised his eyebrows.
"Why should I attend a reception with you?"
"Because everyone invited to the reception can bring a male or female companion, and you are my male companion."
"No, no, what the hell is this reception?"
"The charity bazaar, everyone drank and donated money, pretending to be invisible and at the same time showing love to poor children in the third world."
"Why do you bring me? Am I also part of the love offering? Are you going to donate me to the little black boy in Africa?"
"Would you rather watch me go to the reception holding someone else's hand?"
"... To be honest, I don't really care who you hold."
"Then I will ask Fan Shang to go with me."
Gu Xuyang recalled Louis's unsmiling and poisonous assistant, even when facing his immediate superior, he never had a good face.Louis seemed to be in high spirits, and it would be too miserable if the assistant who never succumbed to the rich and powerful went with him.
"I'll just go with you..."
"Then put it on."
"Can I wear it in another room?"
"The cloakroom is yours."
"Damn, there is actually a special cloakroom here?"
Gu Xuyang got into the cloakroom, most of this small room was occupied by "Miss Celine"'s women's clothing, Gu Xuyang even found a suspicious silicone breast pad.He resisted the desire to study the thing, and quickly checked his surroundings.No pinhole cameras, thank goodness.
He took off his clothes and changed into the suit Louis had handed him.The clothes fit his figure perfectly, who knows when, where and by what means Louis measured his measurements.Just thinking about it is creepy.
"Are you ready?" Louis knocked on the door outside.
"No peeking!" Gu Xuyang hurriedly put on his pants, and turned his back to the door of the cloakroom, fearing that gay guys outside would come in and open his trouser chains.
When he finally got dressed and jumped out of the cloakroom, he froze.
Louie also changed his clothes.Gu Xuyang thought that he had long been used to him switching between men's clothing and women's clothing with one click, but when he really saw that Louis looked like a dog in a suit and leather shoes, he would still be a little shocked by his handsomeness.Louis was wearing a dark gray striped suit that matched Gu Xuyang's. His blond hair was casually tied behind his head and tied into a loose low ponytail, exposing one ear.Gu Xuyang noticed that he was wearing two earrings on one side and nothing on the other.He even wore a corsage!
"...why don't you wear a skirt?"
"Do you prefer me in a skirt?"
"I don't really care..."
"Then why do you ask?" Louis gave him a strange look, "You really care about what I wear, right?"
"Can we go?" Gu Xuyang changed the subject.
"Afteryou, sir." Louis bowed.
Gu Xuyang walked out the door, then backed away, staring at Louis.
"Are you kidding me? I don't know the way at all!"
***
"Louis Drier and his male companion, Mr. Gu." Louis smiled and handed the invitation to the welcome guests.
The reception was held on the second floor of the same hotel.Gu Xuyang has never participated in such a high-level occasion, it seems that his "well-trained" is not effective in this kind of occasion.He didn't want to hold Louis' hand, but he had to, otherwise he wouldn't even dare to walk.
There is a buffet table on one side of the banquet hall, and a row of display cabinets on the other side. The exhibits range from simple pottery pots to avant-garde modern art paintings. It is a pity that Gu Xuyang, who thinks he is out of high-end taste, cannot appreciate them. artistry.
"Why does a charity reception have to display art? Oh, I see, is this a bazaar?"
"No. Those are just decorations."
"...You guys have such a unique decoration for a reception?"
Louis smiled mysteriously, noncommittal.
A waiter appeared behind Gu Xuyang carrying a plate of champagne.Louis took two glasses of champagne, walked around the banquet hall holding Gu Xuyang's hand, and stopped more than once to chat with bejeweled ladies and gentlemen. Of course, it was Louis who was in charge of talking and laughing, and Gu Xuyang could only laugh embarrassingly at the side. .He decided not to scold those vase actors in the movie anymore. It turns out that being a good vase is not easy.
When they turned to a blue and white porcelain vase exhibit, Gu Xuyang broke out in a cold sweat suddenly, and had to support Louis to barely stand still.
"This bottle...!" Gu Xuyang whispered, "It's one of the antiques stolen by Ace of Hearts! But... why did it appear here?"
"Someone bought it from an antique shop on Antique Street, and after dumping it several times, it was left here. It seems that there are still people who know how to do it."
Although Ace of Hearts gave clues to the stolen antiques before escaping from prison, it was still a painstaking effort to track down their whereabouts.Antique Street antique shops do not keep accounts properly in order to avoid tax. There are too many customers, and the boss can't tell the customers' appearance and identity clearly.The police issued a notice to trace the whereabouts of the stolen goods, hoping that the buyers would return the antiques in a high-spirited manner, but it happened that the people who bought the stolen goods were not as generous as expected.That thread was cut off.Unexpectedly, one of them actually appeared at the reception.
"This is stolen goods! Why didn't anyone call the police?!"
"Ah, my Gu, you are such a cutie. No one will admit that this is genuine. Have you seen the introduction below? This is an 'ancient blue and white porcelain vase handmade by modern craftsmen'."
"Then how do you know it's genuine? What if it's a modern imitation?"
Louis smiled mysteriously: "Of course I have insider information. This reception is said to be a charity, but the real purpose is to display these works of art. Their sources are not very formal, and they cannot be circulated in the open, so we have to Find a buyer through this curve to save the country. The people who came to the reception were collectors interested in these illegal works of art. The donation is just a cover, and each exhibit is called by the name of a charity project, such as this bottle is' "Establish schools for children in impoverished areas of Africa", and the clay pot over there is "provide medical assistance for children with rare diseases". How much you donate to a project is equivalent to how much you are willing to pay for exhibits, and the one with the highest price will win. .”
Gu Xuyang's head hurt from hearing it.Did Louis bring him to the black market in such a grandiose manner?This... is simply flouting the dignity of law enforcement agencies!
"Should I call for a van?"
"Hey, you don't have evidence, how can you confiscate the 'modern antique artwork' that people used for decoration?"
"But you didn't mean that the organizer will contact you privately..."
"There is no written evidence left, it's all verbal communication. How many years have I been in this business, how could I be caught by the little tail. Let's play according to their rules of the game."
"I can't afford it, big brother!"
"I bought the bottle."
Gu Xuyang's eyes widened: "But it's expensive, right? It's not clearly marked. What if someone robs you?"
"Just pay a high price that others can't afford."
"If you have money, you can do whatever you want! This bottle was lost by the museum. Although the museum will give some compensation to those who found it, it will definitely not be as high as the price you paid for it... Uh, let me tell you first, I don't know how to use it. The body compensates you."
"I didn't say anything, you said it first! What are you thinking about!"
"Obviously it's your performance that makes me have to think about it!"
"That's the only way your imagination can take such leaps."
Gu Xuyang was speechless.A foreigner is even more proficient in using allusions than he is, which fills his heart with guilt for Brother Xun and Yun.
***
At the end of the reception, the host began to announce the final donation amount for each charity project.Children with rare diseases received 60 yuan in aid, and stray cats and dogs also received 25 yuan in shelters.The price of each exhibit is unbelievably high, and such a suspicious bazaar can be held openly, Gu Xuyang still knows too little about the dark side of society.
"The next charity project, which generous philanthropist is willing to build a school for poor children in Africa? Oh, thank you for your donation!"
Louis was about to stand up to accept the insincere praise from everyone, but he was dumbfounded by the name that the host announced next.
A plump lady won the ownership of the porcelain vase with a higher price than Louis.Louis' offer was outrageous enough, but the woman's offer was even more generous!
Louis fell back on his seat resentfully: "It seems that he is a knowledgeable person!"
Gu Xuyang said with a mournful face, "Can you let go of my hand? It hurts so much."
"Sorry." Lu Yi let go of his hand, and then rubbed the painful place on Gu Xuyang's arm.
"Can you offer a higher price?"
"I don't know, maybe that woman is willing to transfer it to me."
With a hypocritical smile on his face, Louis approached the plump lady while applauding.Gu Xuyang believed that he had already finished the draft, and he could praise the woman's beauty and virtue as if a bodhisattva was alive.
Suddenly, the banquet hall was plunged into darkness.Gu Xuyang guessed that there was a power outage, so he fumbled in his pockets, trying to take out his mobile phone for lighting.Some quick-moving people have already turned on their mobile phone flashlights.The hotel manager rushed into the venue and loudly announced that there was an unexpected power outage just now, and all the guests were asked not to panic and stay where they are to avoid a stampede in the dark.
"Oops!" Gu Xuyang grabbed Louis next to him, "This is no coincidence! This is the usual trick of Ace of Hearts! He came to steal the bottle!"
After that, he dragged Louis towards the direction of the display case.I don't know how many feet I stepped on along the way, leaving behind countless screams and curses.
"But...it doesn't make sense! There's no sword manual in that bottle, what is he drawing? And if he wants the bottle, why did he tell us the clue on Antique Street..."
"The ghost knows what he's thinking! I'm a normal person and I don't understand crazy thoughts!"
After finally reaching the display cabinet, Gu Xuyang took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight.The display cabinet was opened in just ten seconds, and the pedestal of the blue and white porcelain vase was empty, only the introduction sign was left to tell the world what was there.
A chuckle came from the darkness.Gu Xuyang instinctively slashed at the location where the laughter came from.Someone pushed his arm away and gave him a flying kick.Seeing that he was about to get kicked firmly, Louis suddenly grabbed Gu Xuyang's sleeve and threw him out. Then he dodged the attack with a low body, gathered strength with his feet, and rushed towards the attacker like an arrow.
Gu Xuyang hit a few innocent guests and stammered an apology to them.Several arcs of light flashed quickly in the darkness, and the crisp sound of weapons clashing sounded one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the chandelier in the banquet hall suddenly lit up.A black shadow jumped onto the chandelier and hung upside down on the lamp, and the blue and white porcelain vase was held in his arms.
"Catch him! He's here to steal the exhibit!"
Gu Xuyang pulled out the collar of the hotel manager. The latter was so frightened by the sudden accident that he didn't react.Gu Xuyang pushed him away, and used lightness kung fu to step on the wall and fly up to the ceiling.
Louis is faster than Gu Xuyang.He took off the corsage, flicked his fingertips, and shot the corsage as a hidden weapon at the thief on the chandelier.
Only then did Gu Xuyang see clearly that the thief was a waiter in the hotel, and they had taken champagne from his tray before.Unexpectedly, he was the Ace of Hearts!He didn't see through the disguise of the Ace of Hearts at such a close distance!
Ace of Hearts tilted his head, and the corsage brushed against his cheek, drawing a very thin bloodstain, and then nailed it to the ceiling.If the Ace of Hearts hadn't dodged the blow, I'm afraid the head would literally explode.
"That's all you want? Just give it to you!" He laughed and threw the bottle down, then kicked on the chandelier like a swing, and flew towards the door.The security guards who rushed over watched helplessly as the thieves flew over their heads, and when they caught up, the Ace of Hearts had long since disappeared.
Gu Xuyang turned back and threw himself at the bottle.Seeing that the precious antique was about to be smashed to pieces, he didn't have time to complain about the bad lines of Heart A!
But it's too late!The distance between them was too far, even if Gu Xuyang stretched his arms as hard as he could, it was too late to catch the bottle.
"No! Yes! Ah!" He fell to the ground, closed his eyes in despair, and couldn't bear to see the precious porcelain bottle smashed to pieces.
But after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear the fate-determining broken sound.
Gu Xuyang opened his eyes in fear.
There were bursts of applause in the banquet hall.
Louis stood directly under the chandelier, catching the bottle impartially, his posture was like Ingres's masterpiece "Fountain", except that the one holding the bottle at this moment was not a naked girl, but a man in a suit and leather shoes.
"Here." Louis handed the blue and white porcelain vase to Gu Xuyang, "Give it to your van."
Gu Xuyang hugged the bottle tremblingly, carefully placed it on the carpet, and protected its edges with his arms, lest it be damaged by some blind guest.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and waited for his colleagues who arrived late to investigate the scene.
But before that, he had one thing to do.
"Thank you." He looked up at Louis.
Louie raised his eyebrows: "It's rare! I thought if I didn't mention it, you would never take the initiative to thank you."
"...Thank you when you should. I still have this basic sense of right and wrong."
Louie brushed his blond hair, disheveled by the action, and didn't look very happy.Gu Xuyang wondered, before he did everything possible to force himself to thank him, so he enjoyed it, but now he expresses his gratitude on his own initiative, why is he so unhappy instead?
"Don't you want me to thank you?"
"What? Of course not, I'm very happy."
"You French have a habit of frowning when you're happy?"
"There are sad smiles and happy frowns in the world."
Louis frowned happily as he spoke.
***
The police officers who arrived later took control of the scene, and the forensic personnel came to the scene to extract the clues left by the Ace of Hearts.They still haven't given up their plan to capture the strange thief.Gu Xuyang secretly told them that the blue and white porcelain vase was one of the cultural relics that had been stolen by the Ace of Hearts and flowed into the black market.As a result, the blue and white porcelain vase was taken as an important evidence and handed over to the task force specializing in tracing the whereabouts of the stolen cultural relics.The organizers of the reception were obviously not very willing to cooperate with the police, but they couldn't help causing such a big mess.Once the appraisal results confirm that the bottle is the stolen cultural relic, the organizer's business may not be able to continue.
Gu Xuyang couldn't help but wonder if all this was a play directed by Ace of Hearts, the free-spirited thief deliberately used this farce to attract the police's idea, and used a knife to kill people to stop this black market reception.
"Of course he thinks so!" After returning to the room, Louis kicked open the door of the cloakroom, yanked off the expensive coat on his body, and threw it on the ground as if venting his anger, and walked over it indifferently. Stepped over.Gu Xuyang helped him pick up his clothes distressedly.Give it a good dry cleaning and the clothes should still be wearable, he thought.
"Hey, hey, hey! If you are angry, be angry, why are you taking off your clothes!"
Louis not only took off his coat, but also roughly tore his shirt, and then began to take off his pants.Gu Xuyang couldn't help worrying about his pants.Is Louis the kind of scumbag who finds others to vent his anger when he is in a bad mood?
Louis pulled out a red floor-length dress from the cloakroom, quickly put it on, and then began to arrange the messy blond hair.
"Bring me my high heels," he ordered.
"what?"
"High heels refer to shoes with high heels, you don't even know this, do you?"
"Of course I know! I didn't ask this! You... why did you suddenly start changing clothes?"
"Tell you to take it and you take it. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Gu Xuyang didn't dare to offend the furious women's clothing boss, so he quickly found a pair of white stilettos from the cloakroom. Louis glanced at them, and immediately opened them meanly.
"Where do these shoes match my clothes?!"
I'm sorry, my straight male aesthetic really doesn't understand this!Gu Xuyang collapsed.He found another pair of shoes, but was again rejected by Louis.After taking out three pairs of shoes in a row, Louis finally reluctantly accepted one of them.
"Why are you torturing me! What are you angry about? Because you didn't get the bottle? It was confiscated by our police. You saved a lot of money. Everyone is happy, right?"
"Because the limelight was taken away by the ace of hearts! I was going to buy the bottle to make you look at me differently, but now you will only remember his foresight and rogue demeanor! I really hope he gets kicked to death by a horse!"
"What's the point of being kicked to death by a horse?!"
"If you prevent others from falling in love, you will be kicked to death by a horse. Haven't you heard this proverb?!"
Gu Xuyang didn't know what to say.Louis did everything possible to break into the black market reception and bought the bottle at all costs, not out of selfless internationalism, but...to change his opinion of him?Gu Xuyang can fully understand Louis' ultimate goal, but Louis
"Is it necessary to be so fast?!" Xiao Zhou grabbed his deputy and screamed terribly. Gu Xuyang felt that if he kept shouting like this, passers-by would doubt whether they were policemen or victims.
"Is this your first time participating in an operation?" Gu Xuyang tried his best to cover Xiao Zhou's screams with his roar.
"That's right!" Xiao Zhou's tears fluttered backwards in the night wind.
There were chaotic voices on the intercom.
"Target turns left onto Hubin Road, repeat, target turns left onto Hubin Road."
Gu Xuyang grabbed the walkie-talkie: "Got it, No. [-] is outflanking from the north of Hubin Road."
Xiao Zhou covered his chest and nestled in the seat with a face full of despair: "I didn't expect this kind of gunfight and car chase scene to happen in reality! I always thought it was a plot only in movies!"
"Art comes from reality!" Gu Xuyang said in an old-fashioned tone, as if this kind of scene was already common to him.
……How can it be!Even Gu Xuyang hasn't seen many gun fights and car chases!He was actually nervous to death, but in order to put on a show in front of Xiao Zhou, he could only bite the bullet and talk and laugh.His hand holding the steering wheel kept shaking, and there was a strange taste in his mouth, maybe he vomited when he didn't pay attention.The only consolation is that Xiao Zhou showed reverence in his eyes, which made Gu Xuyang's hard work of pretending not in vain.
10 minutes ago, a hearse suddenly went crazy on the city road, hit several innocent vehicles in a row, and then drove in the reverse direction into the east-west elevated highway, ignoring the traffic police's warning, and began to run wildly on the elevated highway.In order to avoid this out-of-control hearse, numerous accidents happened to passing vehicles on the elevated road, and the traffic is now completely paralyzed.Gu Xuyang, who happened to be nearby, was called to help. When necessary, he needed to subdue the driver with his own martial arts to avoid more unnecessary casualties.
"Don't ask me to do everything just because I know martial arts..." Gu Xuyang murmured.
The police car drove up the lakeside road in the opposite direction, ready to intercept, but the crazy hearse was even faster, passing Gu Xuyang directly, roaring into the neon lights of the night.
Gu Xuyang opened the car door: "Xiao Zhou, come and drive!"
"Huh?!" Xiao Zhou seemed to see the end of his life.
"It's too bad if it enters the downtown area! I'll try to subdue the driver, you just promise to chase it!"
Although the night was getting dark, there was still a lot of traffic in the bustling urban area. Gu Xuyang couldn't imagine how much damage that crazy hearse would cause.
He jumped onto the roof and crouched down.While Xiao Zhou yelled with unknown meaning, he moved to the driver's seat with difficulty.
Although Xiao Zhou was crying and howling, he did not lose the chain at the critical moment and approached the hearse smoothly and quickly.Gu Xuyang guessed that he might not be afraid, but just wanted to practice his voice.
The distance between the two cars gradually narrowed. Gu Xuyang gathered strength on the soles of his feet and was about to jump onto the roof of the hearse. Unexpectedly, the hearse suddenly flicked its tail. Xiao Zhou didn't react, and just passed the truck.
"What kind of snake skin is moving?!" Xiao Zhou's voice raised an octave, and he slammed the steering wheel. Gu Xuyang was almost thrown off by him and died heroically.There was nothing honorable about this way of dying.
"I'm still on top! Don't throw me off!" Gu Xuyang thumped the roof of the car.
"Otherwise we won't be able to catch up! The hearse will drift!"
The hearse looked heavy and heavy, but unexpectedly it acted dexterously, throwing off several police cars in a row.Because Xiao Zhou was placed in a row just now, the distance between the two cars became wider and wider.Gu Xuyang secretly scolded himself for being poor at lightness kung fu, if his skill was as good as Gu Xiaofei's... No, it would be enough to be as good as the 8 of spades, wouldn't this distance be within reach?
As soon as the hearse was about to be chased away, a fiery red shadow suddenly appeared on the road ahead.
The night was getting dark, Gu Xuyang couldn't see it clearly, he just thought it was a woman in red.
The nearby intersection should have been under martial law. How did she come to this road?Are you a nearby resident?Leaning in the middle of the road like a triangular cone, what on earth is she trying to do?
"Citizens in front, please get out of the way!" Xiao Zhou turned on the loudspeaker.
Not only did the woman not give way, but she put on a posture, drew a long silver sword from her back, and tapped the tip of the sword gently on the ground.
Gu Xuyang's heart rose to his throat.She will definitely be knocked into the air!In this kind of police and bandit chasing car gun battle, civilian casualties occur, where will the police face?The priority now is not to stop the driver, but to save the citizens!
He quickly estimated the relative speed of the two cars. If he rushed over to throw the woman away, there should be still time...
Gu Xuyang touched his toes, Xiao Zhou only heard a loud noise above his head, and when he looked again, the roof of the car had already been dented, and Gu Xuyang jumped up, leaping towards the woman like an eagle hitting the sky.
The hearse suddenly accelerated!The driver seemed to have sensed Gu Xuyang's attack, and stepped on the gas pedal to the end deliberately provocatively.
Gu Xuyang, who was soaring into the air, had nowhere to rely on. After all, there is no light skill in the world where he steps on his own helix to lift into the air.He didn't have time to change his posture, he could only watch the hearse run over the woman.
"Humph."
He seemed to hear the woman sneer.
At the moment when she was about to collide with the hearse, the woman quickly took a step forward, and raised the long sword vertically in her hand.
There was a flash of silver light in the dark night, and a sharp sword wind rushed towards the hearse.Gu Xuyang, who was in mid-air, was blown so hard by the sword wind that he flew backwards, and then hit the glass of the police car behind him impartially, and his whole body was embedded in the spider web-shaped crack.
And the hearse was split into two by the sword wind!The two halves of the car pass by the woman on the left and right, like a river divided by mountains.The woman was not injured at all, and without looking at the wreckage of the hearse that sparked with the ground behind her, she returned her sword and walked towards the police car surrounded by Gu Xuyang like a leisurely stroll.
Xiao Zhou hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but the police car continued to slide forward due to the speed of the car.The woman raised her right foot and stepped on the bumper of the police car with a "bang", forcing the car to stop.
Gu Xuyang groaned# moaned.His eyes stared at the stars, and he only hoped that a medical soldier would come to give him a blood transfusion.
"Injured? You martial arts practitioners are not so fragile, are you?"
A familiar voice came from overhead.
Gu Xuyang moaned# Moaned louder.He said how could there be innocent women in the world who ran into the middle of the road for no reason and waited to be hit by a car... because that person was neither innocent nor innocent, and most importantly, he was not a woman at all!
"Why are you here!" Gu Xuyang rolled on the ground with his head in his arms.
"If you are in the mood to act like a baby, it seems that you are not injured." Louis lifted Gu Xuyang by the collar and put him on the hood of the police car.
Xiao Zhou jumped out of the car, set up an awning to look at the wreckage of the hearse emitting smoke in the distance, and sighed in awe: "The big guy in women's clothing is amazing! I'm sorry!"
"Excellent award." Louis said politely to him.
"Xiao Zhou! Hurry up and handcuff this suspicious person with a controlled knife!" Gu Xuyang yelled.
Louis showed his sword to Xiao Zhou: "It's not a control knife, it's not sharpened."
Xiao Zhou was amazed: "Did you just split that car in half with sword energy? It's amazing!"
"Much praise, praise praise!" Louis continued to be polite to him.
"Xiao Zhou! How did you reach a consensus with the enemy? Hurry up and handcuff him!"
"Oh, how can you call this brave international friend an 'enemy'? He has no self-interested motives, travels all the way to China, and regards the cause of the Chinese people as his own. What kind of thing is this? the spirit of!"
Who said he didn't have self-interested motives!His every move is full of the color of harming others and benefiting himself, okay?Gu Xuyang roared in his heart, but the pain in his chest made him unable to speak a word, so he could only suck his nose and squeeze out a few tears mixed with aggrieved and painful tears.
"Look, he was moved to tears by your spirit!" Xiao Zhou said to Louis.
***
"People who practice martial arts are strong and strong, and the car was smashed by you, but you didn't get hurt at all."
Gu Xuyang was admitted to the hospital with honor, and after some examinations, he was politely invited out by the doctor: "If you are not sick or injured, don't take up medical resources. Our beds are very tight here."
"Doctor, are you sure I'm not injured?!" Gu Xuyang grabbed the doctor's hand and burst into tears, "Could it be an internal injury? Do you want to stop looking?"
The doctor stared at him carefully for three seconds with his eyes wide open.
"Not hurt."
Gu Xuyang wanted to cry but had no tears.
Although it is not a good thing to be injured, Gu Xuyang actually looks forward to being hospitalized very much.At least the hospital will strictly control the visitors during the hospitalization, so that he will not be harassed by Louis.
Thanks to Xiao Zhou's big mouth, everyone now knows that he's having an affair with a "women's big guy from the city of romance".Every day when he goes to work, he can get a lot of weird eyes.It was the first time that Gu Xuyang felt such a great pressure in the workplace environment for so many years.
Walking out of the hospital, as expected, he saw Louis driving his luxury car to pick him up again.Gu Xuyang wanted to sneak away before Louis noticed him, but Louis' eyes were obviously much better than his!
"Gu! I'm here! I'm here to pick you up!" he yelled.
Gu Xuyang heard the conversation between a mother and child beside him.
Child: "Mom, that aunt's voice is so rough! Is she an uncle or an aunt?"
Mom: "Shh! Don't point at people! It's rude!"
Well, even children's eyes are better than mine!Gu Xuyang thought weakly.When I saw Louis for the first time, I didn't recognize him as a man disguised as a woman!
Gu Xuyang covered his face with the medical records, and quickly got into Louis' car.It is obviously a matter of face to have a luxury car, but he is afraid of being recognized, as if he and Louis have some shady relationship.
"What are you doing here?!" he asked through gritted teeth.
"Pick you up. You got hurt because of me!"
"There is no mouth! First of all, I am not injured, I am very good! Secondly, I am not for you..."
"Of course it's for me." Louis put on his sunglasses happily, "Didn't you jump out to save me from the wheel?"
"No! I... I didn't recognize that it was you at all! I thought it was an ordinary citizen! If I had known it was you, I would have ignored it!"
"You have so much confidence in me?" Louis was very pleasantly surprised.
"No, I just hope that you and the drifting hearse two old monsters will lose both sides, and then I will get a big deal."
"Damn it, why are you thinking about taking advantage of others all day long?" Lu Yi bumped Gu Xuyang with his elbow and teased.
Gu Xuyang rolled his eyes towards the sky: "I can only pick up poop from you, okay?"
"You... so you like that kind of play..." Louis said in disbelief, "But it doesn't matter, as long as it's what you like, I'm willing to accompany you!"
"Please shut up!" Gu Xuyang felt on the verge of collapse.
"Which mouth are you referring to?" Louie blinked.
"Why can you speak pornography anytime and anywhere? Don't you foreigners have strict control over sexual harassment? Did you flee to commit crimes abroad because you were accused in your own country?"
"You really know how to joke. He is a real French gentleman."
"I see, French gentleman, right! Your skirt is not convincing!"
Louis suddenly withdrew his smile and was slightly sullen: "I have worked so hard to save you, so will you repay me with this attitude?"
Gu Xuyang's throat tightened, thinking how this person can change his face faster than turning the pages of a book, the heart of a woman... no, the heart of a lady-dressing boss is indeed a needle in the sea.One second he was talking and joking and making jokes, but the next second he wanted to stab him to death with his eyes.Did he say something inappropriate to irritate Louis?But after thinking about it for a long time, Gu Xuyang couldn't figure out that he touched the big brother's back scale.
If they compete with each other, Gu Xuyang can chatter and fight with others for a whole day, but once the other party turns cold, Gu Xuyang immediately dies down.
"Uh, don't be angry, did I say something wrong? Don't you know me well? I speak out loud..."
Louis snorted: "You did talk a lot, but it was all nonsense. I haven't heard the only useful sentence so far."
Gu Xuyang writhed uncomfortably.He was silent for a while, only the regular roar of the engine remained in the car.When the unbearable silence was about to reach the critical point, he reluctantly opened his mouth.
"Thank you."
The sound was so small that it was almost drowned out by the sound of the engine, but Louis still heard it.
The cold expression melted away, and the smile crawled back to the corners of his lips.
Gu Xuyang propped his chin and stared out of the window, not paying attention to Louis' expression.
"Well, but then again, why are you there?"
"It must be the red thread of fate that binds us together!"
"……honestly."
"I asked Xiao Zhou to report your every move. I know you are in trouble, so I'll help you by the way."
Xiao Zhou, you two or five boy!Wash your neck and wait for death!Gu Xuyang pinched his knuckles until they crackled.
"Wait, what do you want to do, this direction is not going back to my home, nor to my work!" Gu Xuyang was vigilant and found that they had embarked on the wrong life path.
"Don't worry, it's not going back to my house."
"Nonsense, is your home on the other side of the world?"
Their destination is a five-star hotel.Louis parked the car at the door, and the doorman politely stepped forward to open the door for them.Gu Xuyang accepted the hotel service with mixed feelings.With his salary level, I am afraid that he will miss this kind of place for the rest of his life.Once again he had a fuller sense of Louie's deep pockets.The rotten atmosphere of capitalism made him jealous to the point of separation.
Louis did not enjoy the thoughtful service of the doorman.He jumped out of the car and almost knocked the doorman into the air.
"Should I stop for you, sir?"
Louis threw the car keys to the doorman, admiring Gu Xuyang's dumbfounded expression from under the sunglasses.
"The service staff in a five-star hotel are extraordinary! They can actually tell that you are a man!"
"I live here." Louie smiled.
"Also said that we are not going back to your house!"
"You wouldn't call a hotel 'home,' would you?" Louie said, "but if you like this place, I can buy it and turn it into our love nest."
"...I don't know whether to complain about your local tyrant or your disgust."
Louis walked into the hotel first.Gu Xuyang shrank his neck and followed him, feeling like his little follower.
They went into the elevator, where a waiter was waiting.
"Welcome back, Monsieur de Lière." The waiter nodded to them with a smile, "Go back to your room?"
"Yes. Is what I want ready?"
"It has been sent to your room."
Gu Xuyang looked at them blankly as if watching a fairy speak.
Louis' room is the top floor river view suite.Two well-ironed suits hung side by side on hangers, with dust covers over them.Louis looked at the labels, picked up one of the labels and threw it to Gu Xuyang.
"Put it on, we're going to a charity reception later."
"Huh?" Gu Xuyang asked in black.
"Aren't you willing to go with me?" Louis raised his eyebrows.
"Why should I attend a reception with you?"
"Because everyone invited to the reception can bring a male or female companion, and you are my male companion."
"No, no, what the hell is this reception?"
"The charity bazaar, everyone drank and donated money, pretending to be invisible and at the same time showing love to poor children in the third world."
"Why do you bring me? Am I also part of the love offering? Are you going to donate me to the little black boy in Africa?"
"Would you rather watch me go to the reception holding someone else's hand?"
"... To be honest, I don't really care who you hold."
"Then I will ask Fan Shang to go with me."
Gu Xuyang recalled Louis's unsmiling and poisonous assistant, even when facing his immediate superior, he never had a good face.Louis seemed to be in high spirits, and it would be too miserable if the assistant who never succumbed to the rich and powerful went with him.
"I'll just go with you..."
"Then put it on."
"Can I wear it in another room?"
"The cloakroom is yours."
"Damn, there is actually a special cloakroom here?"
Gu Xuyang got into the cloakroom, most of this small room was occupied by "Miss Celine"'s women's clothing, Gu Xuyang even found a suspicious silicone breast pad.He resisted the desire to study the thing, and quickly checked his surroundings.No pinhole cameras, thank goodness.
He took off his clothes and changed into the suit Louis had handed him.The clothes fit his figure perfectly, who knows when, where and by what means Louis measured his measurements.Just thinking about it is creepy.
"Are you ready?" Louis knocked on the door outside.
"No peeking!" Gu Xuyang hurriedly put on his pants, and turned his back to the door of the cloakroom, fearing that gay guys outside would come in and open his trouser chains.
When he finally got dressed and jumped out of the cloakroom, he froze.
Louie also changed his clothes.Gu Xuyang thought that he had long been used to him switching between men's clothing and women's clothing with one click, but when he really saw that Louis looked like a dog in a suit and leather shoes, he would still be a little shocked by his handsomeness.Louis was wearing a dark gray striped suit that matched Gu Xuyang's. His blond hair was casually tied behind his head and tied into a loose low ponytail, exposing one ear.Gu Xuyang noticed that he was wearing two earrings on one side and nothing on the other.He even wore a corsage!
"...why don't you wear a skirt?"
"Do you prefer me in a skirt?"
"I don't really care..."
"Then why do you ask?" Louis gave him a strange look, "You really care about what I wear, right?"
"Can we go?" Gu Xuyang changed the subject.
"Afteryou, sir." Louis bowed.
Gu Xuyang walked out the door, then backed away, staring at Louis.
"Are you kidding me? I don't know the way at all!"
***
"Louis Drier and his male companion, Mr. Gu." Louis smiled and handed the invitation to the welcome guests.
The reception was held on the second floor of the same hotel.Gu Xuyang has never participated in such a high-level occasion, it seems that his "well-trained" is not effective in this kind of occasion.He didn't want to hold Louis' hand, but he had to, otherwise he wouldn't even dare to walk.
There is a buffet table on one side of the banquet hall, and a row of display cabinets on the other side. The exhibits range from simple pottery pots to avant-garde modern art paintings. It is a pity that Gu Xuyang, who thinks he is out of high-end taste, cannot appreciate them. artistry.
"Why does a charity reception have to display art? Oh, I see, is this a bazaar?"
"No. Those are just decorations."
"...You guys have such a unique decoration for a reception?"
Louis smiled mysteriously, noncommittal.
A waiter appeared behind Gu Xuyang carrying a plate of champagne.Louis took two glasses of champagne, walked around the banquet hall holding Gu Xuyang's hand, and stopped more than once to chat with bejeweled ladies and gentlemen. Of course, it was Louis who was in charge of talking and laughing, and Gu Xuyang could only laugh embarrassingly at the side. .He decided not to scold those vase actors in the movie anymore. It turns out that being a good vase is not easy.
When they turned to a blue and white porcelain vase exhibit, Gu Xuyang broke out in a cold sweat suddenly, and had to support Louis to barely stand still.
"This bottle...!" Gu Xuyang whispered, "It's one of the antiques stolen by Ace of Hearts! But... why did it appear here?"
"Someone bought it from an antique shop on Antique Street, and after dumping it several times, it was left here. It seems that there are still people who know how to do it."
Although Ace of Hearts gave clues to the stolen antiques before escaping from prison, it was still a painstaking effort to track down their whereabouts.Antique Street antique shops do not keep accounts properly in order to avoid tax. There are too many customers, and the boss can't tell the customers' appearance and identity clearly.The police issued a notice to trace the whereabouts of the stolen goods, hoping that the buyers would return the antiques in a high-spirited manner, but it happened that the people who bought the stolen goods were not as generous as expected.That thread was cut off.Unexpectedly, one of them actually appeared at the reception.
"This is stolen goods! Why didn't anyone call the police?!"
"Ah, my Gu, you are such a cutie. No one will admit that this is genuine. Have you seen the introduction below? This is an 'ancient blue and white porcelain vase handmade by modern craftsmen'."
"Then how do you know it's genuine? What if it's a modern imitation?"
Louis smiled mysteriously: "Of course I have insider information. This reception is said to be a charity, but the real purpose is to display these works of art. Their sources are not very formal, and they cannot be circulated in the open, so we have to Find a buyer through this curve to save the country. The people who came to the reception were collectors interested in these illegal works of art. The donation is just a cover, and each exhibit is called by the name of a charity project, such as this bottle is' "Establish schools for children in impoverished areas of Africa", and the clay pot over there is "provide medical assistance for children with rare diseases". How much you donate to a project is equivalent to how much you are willing to pay for exhibits, and the one with the highest price will win. .”
Gu Xuyang's head hurt from hearing it.Did Louis bring him to the black market in such a grandiose manner?This... is simply flouting the dignity of law enforcement agencies!
"Should I call for a van?"
"Hey, you don't have evidence, how can you confiscate the 'modern antique artwork' that people used for decoration?"
"But you didn't mean that the organizer will contact you privately..."
"There is no written evidence left, it's all verbal communication. How many years have I been in this business, how could I be caught by the little tail. Let's play according to their rules of the game."
"I can't afford it, big brother!"
"I bought the bottle."
Gu Xuyang's eyes widened: "But it's expensive, right? It's not clearly marked. What if someone robs you?"
"Just pay a high price that others can't afford."
"If you have money, you can do whatever you want! This bottle was lost by the museum. Although the museum will give some compensation to those who found it, it will definitely not be as high as the price you paid for it... Uh, let me tell you first, I don't know how to use it. The body compensates you."
"I didn't say anything, you said it first! What are you thinking about!"
"Obviously it's your performance that makes me have to think about it!"
"That's the only way your imagination can take such leaps."
Gu Xuyang was speechless.A foreigner is even more proficient in using allusions than he is, which fills his heart with guilt for Brother Xun and Yun.
***
At the end of the reception, the host began to announce the final donation amount for each charity project.Children with rare diseases received 60 yuan in aid, and stray cats and dogs also received 25 yuan in shelters.The price of each exhibit is unbelievably high, and such a suspicious bazaar can be held openly, Gu Xuyang still knows too little about the dark side of society.
"The next charity project, which generous philanthropist is willing to build a school for poor children in Africa? Oh, thank you for your donation!"
Louis was about to stand up to accept the insincere praise from everyone, but he was dumbfounded by the name that the host announced next.
A plump lady won the ownership of the porcelain vase with a higher price than Louis.Louis' offer was outrageous enough, but the woman's offer was even more generous!
Louis fell back on his seat resentfully: "It seems that he is a knowledgeable person!"
Gu Xuyang said with a mournful face, "Can you let go of my hand? It hurts so much."
"Sorry." Lu Yi let go of his hand, and then rubbed the painful place on Gu Xuyang's arm.
"Can you offer a higher price?"
"I don't know, maybe that woman is willing to transfer it to me."
With a hypocritical smile on his face, Louis approached the plump lady while applauding.Gu Xuyang believed that he had already finished the draft, and he could praise the woman's beauty and virtue as if a bodhisattva was alive.
Suddenly, the banquet hall was plunged into darkness.Gu Xuyang guessed that there was a power outage, so he fumbled in his pockets, trying to take out his mobile phone for lighting.Some quick-moving people have already turned on their mobile phone flashlights.The hotel manager rushed into the venue and loudly announced that there was an unexpected power outage just now, and all the guests were asked not to panic and stay where they are to avoid a stampede in the dark.
"Oops!" Gu Xuyang grabbed Louis next to him, "This is no coincidence! This is the usual trick of Ace of Hearts! He came to steal the bottle!"
After that, he dragged Louis towards the direction of the display case.I don't know how many feet I stepped on along the way, leaving behind countless screams and curses.
"But...it doesn't make sense! There's no sword manual in that bottle, what is he drawing? And if he wants the bottle, why did he tell us the clue on Antique Street..."
"The ghost knows what he's thinking! I'm a normal person and I don't understand crazy thoughts!"
After finally reaching the display cabinet, Gu Xuyang took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight.The display cabinet was opened in just ten seconds, and the pedestal of the blue and white porcelain vase was empty, only the introduction sign was left to tell the world what was there.
A chuckle came from the darkness.Gu Xuyang instinctively slashed at the location where the laughter came from.Someone pushed his arm away and gave him a flying kick.Seeing that he was about to get kicked firmly, Louis suddenly grabbed Gu Xuyang's sleeve and threw him out. Then he dodged the attack with a low body, gathered strength with his feet, and rushed towards the attacker like an arrow.
Gu Xuyang hit a few innocent guests and stammered an apology to them.Several arcs of light flashed quickly in the darkness, and the crisp sound of weapons clashing sounded one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the chandelier in the banquet hall suddenly lit up.A black shadow jumped onto the chandelier and hung upside down on the lamp, and the blue and white porcelain vase was held in his arms.
"Catch him! He's here to steal the exhibit!"
Gu Xuyang pulled out the collar of the hotel manager. The latter was so frightened by the sudden accident that he didn't react.Gu Xuyang pushed him away, and used lightness kung fu to step on the wall and fly up to the ceiling.
Louis is faster than Gu Xuyang.He took off the corsage, flicked his fingertips, and shot the corsage as a hidden weapon at the thief on the chandelier.
Only then did Gu Xuyang see clearly that the thief was a waiter in the hotel, and they had taken champagne from his tray before.Unexpectedly, he was the Ace of Hearts!He didn't see through the disguise of the Ace of Hearts at such a close distance!
Ace of Hearts tilted his head, and the corsage brushed against his cheek, drawing a very thin bloodstain, and then nailed it to the ceiling.If the Ace of Hearts hadn't dodged the blow, I'm afraid the head would literally explode.
"That's all you want? Just give it to you!" He laughed and threw the bottle down, then kicked on the chandelier like a swing, and flew towards the door.The security guards who rushed over watched helplessly as the thieves flew over their heads, and when they caught up, the Ace of Hearts had long since disappeared.
Gu Xuyang turned back and threw himself at the bottle.Seeing that the precious antique was about to be smashed to pieces, he didn't have time to complain about the bad lines of Heart A!
But it's too late!The distance between them was too far, even if Gu Xuyang stretched his arms as hard as he could, it was too late to catch the bottle.
"No! Yes! Ah!" He fell to the ground, closed his eyes in despair, and couldn't bear to see the precious porcelain bottle smashed to pieces.
But after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear the fate-determining broken sound.
Gu Xuyang opened his eyes in fear.
There were bursts of applause in the banquet hall.
Louis stood directly under the chandelier, catching the bottle impartially, his posture was like Ingres's masterpiece "Fountain", except that the one holding the bottle at this moment was not a naked girl, but a man in a suit and leather shoes.
"Here." Louis handed the blue and white porcelain vase to Gu Xuyang, "Give it to your van."
Gu Xuyang hugged the bottle tremblingly, carefully placed it on the carpet, and protected its edges with his arms, lest it be damaged by some blind guest.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and waited for his colleagues who arrived late to investigate the scene.
But before that, he had one thing to do.
"Thank you." He looked up at Louis.
Louie raised his eyebrows: "It's rare! I thought if I didn't mention it, you would never take the initiative to thank you."
"...Thank you when you should. I still have this basic sense of right and wrong."
Louie brushed his blond hair, disheveled by the action, and didn't look very happy.Gu Xuyang wondered, before he did everything possible to force himself to thank him, so he enjoyed it, but now he expresses his gratitude on his own initiative, why is he so unhappy instead?
"Don't you want me to thank you?"
"What? Of course not, I'm very happy."
"You French have a habit of frowning when you're happy?"
"There are sad smiles and happy frowns in the world."
Louis frowned happily as he spoke.

The police officers who arrived later took control of the scene, and the forensic personnel came to the scene to extract the clues left by the Ace of Hearts.They still haven't given up their plan to capture the strange thief.Gu Xuyang secretly told them that the blue and white porcelain vase was one of the cultural relics that had been stolen by the Ace of Hearts and flowed into the black market.As a result, the blue and white porcelain vase was taken as an important evidence and handed over to the task force specializing in tracing the whereabouts of the stolen cultural relics.The organizers of the reception were obviously not very willing to cooperate with the police, but they couldn't help causing such a big mess.Once the appraisal results confirm that the bottle is the stolen cultural relic, the organizer's business may not be able to continue.
Gu Xuyang couldn't help but wonder if all this was a play directed by Ace of Hearts, the free-spirited thief deliberately used this farce to attract the police's idea, and used a knife to kill people to stop this black market reception.
"Of course he thinks so!" After returning to the room, Louis kicked open the door of the cloakroom, yanked off the expensive coat on his body, and threw it on the ground as if venting his anger, and walked over it indifferently. Stepped over.Gu Xuyang helped him pick up his clothes distressedly.Give it a good dry cleaning and the clothes should still be wearable, he thought.
"Hey, hey, hey! If you are angry, be angry, why are you taking off your clothes!"
Louis not only took off his coat, but also roughly tore his shirt, and then began to take off his pants.Gu Xuyang couldn't help worrying about his pants.Is Louis the kind of scumbag who finds others to vent his anger when he is in a bad mood?
Louis pulled out a red floor-length dress from the cloakroom, quickly put it on, and then began to arrange the messy blond hair.
"Bring me my high heels," he ordered.
"what?"
"High heels refer to shoes with high heels, you don't even know this, do you?"
"Of course I know! I didn't ask this! You... why did you suddenly start changing clothes?"
"Tell you to take it and you take it. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Gu Xuyang didn't dare to offend the furious women's clothing boss, so he quickly found a pair of white stilettos from the cloakroom. Louis glanced at them, and immediately opened them meanly.
"Where do these shoes match my clothes?!"
I'm sorry, my straight male aesthetic really doesn't understand this!Gu Xuyang collapsed.He found another pair of shoes, but was again rejected by Louis.After taking out three pairs of shoes in a row, Louis finally reluctantly accepted one of them.
"Why are you torturing me! What are you angry about? Because you didn't get the bottle? It was confiscated by our police. You saved a lot of money. Everyone is happy, right?"
"Because the limelight was taken away by the ace of hearts! I was going to buy the bottle to make you look at me differently, but now you will only remember his foresight and rogue demeanor! I really hope he gets kicked to death by a horse!"
"What's the point of being kicked to death by a horse?!"
"If you prevent others from falling in love, you will be kicked to death by a horse. Haven't you heard this proverb?!"
Gu Xuyang didn't know what to say.Louis did everything possible to break into the black market reception and bought the bottle at all costs, not out of selfless internationalism, but...to change his opinion of him?Gu Xuyang can fully understand Louis' ultimate goal, but Louis
