When Kate came out of the monitoring room of the venue, she saw two well-known rich men surrounded by long guns and short guns. Bruce and Tony were interviewed by reporters. His face seemed to be full of unhappiness and lethargy.

Kate didn't see Clark in the crowd. She paused, and was pulled by a hand stretched out from the side corner. When Kate looked up, she saw that the person holding her wrist was Clark.

Clark let go, and Kate pointed to Bruce and Tony, who were surrounded by reporters, and asked, "Hey, why are you here?"

Clark said with a smile: "I don't need extra exposure, and I'm not those two people who have to laugh hard for the headlines. On the contrary, I need a considerable degree of low-key." Clark shrugged and said: " Let's go in first, and when they find out that I have slipped away, they will get rid of the reporters and come to me."

Kate raised her head slightly and looked at Clark's side face. She endured it, but still couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart, and finally asked, "Clark? I'm asking a more private question. If you don't want to tell me, you can refuse." .”

Clark nodded, he probably guessed Kate's question: "Huh?"

Kate then asked: "Are you in good financial condition?" He casually said that the liquidity at the disposal of a person who took millions of paintings is definitely beyond the imagination of a middle class like Kate.

Clark scratched his head and said, "I founded a company when I was an undergraduate student," Clark said, "The direction of the company's business is relatively unpopular, and it is the research of biological genes. The company has several core technologies with relatively high profitability. It hasn’t been listed yet, and when it comes to my economic conditions, Bruce and Tony can’t match me, but I’m actually quite rich.”

"Then why did you choose forensic medicine? This job is dirty and tiring," Kate asked with a little emotion: "According to your conditions, you can choose a more comfortable job?"

"Probably because I'm a little idealistic," Clark said, walking side by side with Kate toward the venue, "The genetic engineering project in the company is beneficial to the living, and I want to do my best to help the dead and injured." people contribute.”

After Kate heard the words, it took a long time before she said, "Then you are really good."

"What's the matter," Clark said pitifully, "I experienced the joy of working overtime until I vomited. You just saw it. Tony looked unhappy. We discussed a project of the company all night last night. I didn’t sleep until three o’clock today.”

"Why did Mr. Stark still insist on being there?" Kate wanted to laugh and felt a little offended, she said, "Shouldn't you have a good sleep?"

Clark said: "Did you hear what he said yesterday, no matter what the treasure is, I won't let Bruce and I take it." Kate finally couldn't hold back and laughed. Kate's cognition of the arrogant rich man based on the media description finally collapsed.

Clarke said that the most, but he knew very well in his heart that during the whole process of Tony's growing up, Tony's parents were always busy with work. His parents loved him, but there was no doubt that his parents loved him. There is very little real concern and love that is actually expressed. In a sense, he grew up in an environment that lacks love, and he is not good at expressing his concern for others.

Clark thought in his heart, he analyzed Tony's psychology, he and Bruce were the rare people who cared about him, the rare people who had an equal relationship with him and could get along happily.Tony would never admit it, but both Clark and Bruce could tell that Tony cherished their friendship very much.

To be honest, Clark liked Tony a lot, he was a sincere and warm person.

After a while, the sincere and enthusiastic man sat on the right side of Clark with a straight face, covered his mouth with his hands and yawned, two tears came out of his brown eyes, and the bidding sign that Tony held in his hand was on his lap After clapping, he glanced at Clark sitting on his left, then glanced at Bruce sitting on Clark's left, and finally turned his head to look at Agent Callahan who was sitting upright.

Tony yawned for a long time, and Clark asked with concern, "Would you like a cup of coffee?"

Tony shook his head, "Miss Callaghan," Kate turned her head, Tony raised his hand, swipe his fingers in the air and finally tapped Kate's head, and said, "I hereby officially authorize you to be mine, Tony Star Ke’s bidding agent, no matter what, please help me take the oil painting "Girl in the Rapeseed Field"?"

Tony stuffed the bidding card No. 28 into Kate's hand, and gave the so-called authorization very perfunctorily. He stood up and was about to go out. Before Kate could react, he asked subconsciously: "What about you, Stark?" gentlemen?"

"Me? I'm going to get a room in a nearby hotel to sleep," Tony said, yawned again, and muttered, "Bruce, I swear I won't bother you anymore. This feeling of lack of sleep makes me feel like I'm about to Dead, I regret it, I shouldn't have gotten up today."

Bruce glanced at Tony, and said to Clark: "You go too, Clark, and send this man who can't walk steadily."

Kate was a little surprised, but the thoughtful detective lowered his voice and said, "It's okay, go, I've arranged everything."

Tony stared at Clark sleepily, and Clark said, "Tony, I'll take you there!" Tony is no better than a Kryptonian who can be resurrected with full blood after basking in the sun. He is really a little confused. Clark is worried and must follow him.

After finishing speaking, Clark also put the bidding card No. 29 into Kate's hand. Bruce and Clark looked at each other. Bruce leaned forward and leaned back. Bruce watched Kate relax visibly.

Bruce, who is quite a gentleman, saw the young detective who hesitated to speak out of the corner of his eye. He watched Kate move uncomfortably before standing up and sitting on the seat next to him. Kate's movements showed that she was approaching a famous detective. Anxiety while being a playboy outside.

Bruce leaned on the side away from Kate, and the silent nobleman seemed a little indifferent. Kate saw that he was silent, and she couldn't ask for a long time. After all, they were not from the same class. I have met three times, and the only connection is Clark, and the two are very strange.

What Kate didn't expect was that Bruce, who secretly investigated Kate, made a fairly accurate judgment on Kate. This is a very ordinary person with a sense of justice. He said that ordinary is not ordinary, just like most ordinary people. Love your life and work hard.

Bruce's investigation of her is more detailed, and even now he has a little understanding of Kate's childhood friends, and this young female detective has a bonus item——

Married, with children, loving her husband, loving her family, would not cause Clark unnecessary trouble.

After a long while, Kate broke the awkward atmosphere, waved the auction card in her hand, and asked, "Are they serious?" She really authorized her, an agent who had just met not long ago, to take pictures of millions of dollars. Auction?

Bruce was getting up, and he whispered: "Although Tony is just angry, the money is nothing to him. He donates hundreds of times of this every year," Bruce continued, "Besides, Tony has connections to get this You don't have to worry about the paintings being resold."

Hundreds of times, that Stark will donate at least more than [-] million to charity every year-Kate realizes that some tabloids' descriptions are really irresponsible.

"I..." Kate took a deep breath and said, "I'm really not at your consumption level."

Bruce looked at Kate's clenched fist, and whispered very considerately: "In this case, let me take a picture. I don't want to see a lady in such distress."

"Thank you," said Kate, sitting up straight, and said sincerely, "Please, Mr. Wayne."

I don't know why, but unlike Clark's relaxed and pleasant way of getting along, although the Mr. Wayne in front of me is a gentleman, gentle and considerate, Kate instinctively feels a kind of pressure, or in other words, She didn't want to show any indecent behavior in front of this man.

Bruce looked at Kate's reaction, he raised his hand and pinched the center of his eyebrows, this man was very sensitive, he stripped off the mask of Brucey's baby, he didn't act like a playboy sweetheart, he was actually very quiet.This person is worthy of her degree involving psychology.

Fortunately, the auction has begun.

The host of the auction was Harrison Leonard, the director of Metropolitan Gunther Auction House. He stepped onto the stage, and Leonard, who had presided over countless auctions, held the microphone and said in a provocative tone: "Ladies, sir Ladies and gentlemen, I am Leonard, welcome to the Met’s third quarter auction of this year, everyone has received the photos sent by our bank, as you can see, this is a feast of treasures.”

The auction items appear one by one, and all the auction items are high-quality goods, such as ancient porcelain, jewelry, Renaissance oil paintings, etc., each piece is exquisite and priceless.

Leonard is experienced and provocative. Every time a treasure appears on the stage, he will introduce the origin of the item in detail, and these items have been auctioned by the people present, and there is no top-notch auction. "Girl in the Rapeseed Field" is the No. 13 lot to be auctioned.

Before the auction of "The Girl in the Rapeseed Field" started, Leonard subconsciously looked in the direction of Kate and Bruce.

"This "Girl in the Rapeseed Field" is an early work of the Italian painter Carnegie Camp during the Renaissance. It is one of the few realistic oil paintings of the abstract artist Carnegie Camp. As you can see, the picture is bright and colorful, and the girl is gentle and beautiful," Leonard said, "Then, this is today's No. 13 auction item, with a starting price of 200 million yuan." dollars.

Bruce raised the placard first, and Leonard shouted: "220 million!"

"200 million and 60!"

"300 million!"

The price kept rising, and Kate raised her hand to cover her chest. At this time, the price had risen to 420 million.

Bruce raised his card again, 440 million.

"440 million! 440 million once," Leonard stood on the stage, pointing at the bidders who raised their placards and shouted. He used his full speed: "440 million twice, 440 million three times, deal!" Bruce took this "Girl in the Rapeseed Field".

Now, just wait for the prey to take the bait.

Kate said softly: "Thank you." Then, the young female detective stood up slowly, put the two auction cards on the chair, and walked away from the meeting place to the monitoring room as if nothing had happened.

Not long after Kate left the venue, Clark, who had sent Tony to the hotel room, came back. As soon as Clark walked into the side door, he saw three empty seats around him. He seemed to be a bored friend. Clark walked along the wall. , sat down beside Bruce.

Clark leaned over and asked in a voice that no one behind him could hear, "How is it?"

Bruce gave Clark a sideways look, and also whispered, "How about something?"

"Don't you just want to test my partner at work while avoiding me?" Clark said with his head tilted.

"Agent Callahan is very sensitive," Bruce commented bluntly: "When I don't deliberately show her a playboy side, she seems to feel some pressure. , micro-expressions and other details, if you don’t want to be exposed by her, I suggest you be more cautious in your daily life.”

Clark was a little surprised, this evaluation is not low.So Clark replied: "Okay." Clark paused, he never found a chance to say, and said, "Before you left yesterday, did you hire a waiter to take care of Xiao Krypton?" Bruce nodded.

"Tony just complained to me about this in the hotel." Clark pursed his lips and smiled: "He said that his status in your heart is actually inferior to that big white dog!"

"Xiao Krypton ran away by himself in the morning, and he probably went to find Ah Fu." Bruce said.

Clark said: "The dog saw that the two fathers didn't come to walk him, so he slipped away naturally."

Bruce glanced at Clark, with a little helplessness in his eyes. Compared with Kate, Tony is more than ten times smarter. If Bruce shows a meticulous and meticulous character in front of Tony, it won't take long for Tony to connect him with Batman. Together, and then collect evidence one by one, he still talks about keeping his identity secret.

"Tony, he..." Bruce commented: "He is a very delicate person. Although he has never been involved in psychology, his IQ is enough for him to connect certain details together, and come up with things you don't want to see. The truth. Clark..."

Clark tilted his head, leaned into Bruce's ear, and said with a smile, "Do you think so highly of Tony?"

Bruce could clearly feel Clark's puffs of exhalation when he spoke on his cheeks, and there was such a slight itchiness on his face that he could hardly control his facial expressions.At this moment, Bruce was a little hard to describe the emotions he was suppressing in his heart. In the end, he could only mutter in his heart, blaming the woman who made a joke but hit the nail on the head.

Diana, who worked all day yesterday with great concentration to ensure that the remaining items in the auction house are genuine, twisted the fork in her hand, picked up a piece of soft bread dipped in mayonnaise mustard, and sneezed without warning.

The auction has come to an end, and the last lot, a blue-and-white porcelain bowl from the Qianlong period, was also successfully sold at a price of 400 million. After Leonard announced the end of the auction, Bruce said to Clark: "I'll pay, let's ?” Clark followed Bruce with his hands in his pockets, but his super hearing focused on the vault where the oil paintings were kept.

Bruce paid the money in the VIP hall and went through the registration procedures. Bruce filled in the form and requested that the address the auction house deliver to was Tony Stark's villa in New York. The corners of the lips are narrowed.

The waiters in the VIP service room had already retreated after finishing their business, leaving only Bruce and Clark in the room.

"What's wrong? It worked." Bruce asked.

"Yes." Clark leaned close to Bruce's ear, and was about to describe what he saw and heard, but the moment Clark approached, Bruce moved away faster than his brain. Clark was a little confused, but seemed to understand ——Bruce didn't want him to talk about the auction house selling fakes here, after all, the bottom-level employees didn't know about it.

Bruce scratched the fabric of his trouser pocket with his fingers in his trouser pocket, and he said calmly, "I'm leaving, you go to work."

Don't miss yours.

Like a thunderclap, Diana's words rang in Bruce's mind.
