Yuan Shanchuan was amazed as he looked at the painting. He felt that the painting that he had spent so much effort to hide was right in front of him.
Meng Yunzheng was still finishing up when Daniu, who had been observing outside the door, suddenly said, “Someone’s coming out.”
Shu Yu walked over and heard Daniu say, “Unfortunately, he’s just a follower.”
“Follower?” Shu Yu took her place and saw a servant wearing a curtain hat come out from the private room. The others remained in the private room.
Who knew that Meng Yunzheng would suddenly say, “This is a good opportunity. If we find trouble with this attendant, we might be able to get the people in the private room to come out.”
In a chaotic situation, it was easy to steal and replace.
Shu Yu nodded. “How?”
“l asked Brother Zhao to stay downstairs.” As he spoke, Meng Yunzheng walked to the window and pressed the shutter with his hand. Once, twice, thrice, at least seven or eight times.
At this time, Zhao Xi, who had been waiting in the lobby downstairs, raised his head. When he saw Nieng Yunzhengs signal, he immediately straightened his body.
He stuffed the pastry in his hand into his mouth, clapped his hands, and looked at the stairs without batting an eyelid.
After a while, a person appeared at the staircase.
Zhao Xi raised his head again. Meng Yunzheng, who was upstairs, naturally saw the person who came downstairs, so he pressed the shutter twice. After Zhao Xi confirmed it, he casually followed the attendant wearing the curtain hat.
The attendant went to the toilet, and Zhao Xi also went in.
After a while, he followed him out.
What surprised Zhao Xi was that the attendant did not continue to return to the auction house. Instead, he walked towards the front hall.
Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes. Something was wrong.
Seeing that person walk away, he suddenly shouts, “Ah, there’s a thief. A thief is going that way.””
As soon as he finished speaking, a waiter from the black market immediately came over and asked, “Customer, what happened to you?”
“I just saw a thief in brown clothes heading to the front hall. He seemed to be holding something in his hand. He didn’t even apologize when he b.u.mped into me. Instead, he was fl.u.s.tered. As soon as he left, I realized that my purse was gone. How could there be a thief in your black market? This is too strange. ”
The expressions of the few workers changed slightly. Brown clothes? Yuan Shanchuan was wearing brown clothes.
They had not been able to find him. They did not expect him to be so bold as to steal the customers money.
Also, he was holding something in his hand. Could it be that he had stolen the painting?
D*mn it, if that was the case, then something big would happen.
The two waiters quickly found a few people and ran to the front hall.
Zhao Xi had already run to the front hall when they were not paying attention. This was the hall where Shu Yu and the others first entered. There was a counter and a waiter who provided information.
Some people did not go to the auction house and still stayed there to trade, Therefore, there were still many people in the hall.
The black market clerk didn’t want to make a big fuss. He only ordered people to block the front, back, left, and right doors. He wanted to conduct a carpet search in the hall.
However, Zhao Xi had also followed them in. His goal was to cause trouble. How could he give them such a low-key way to act?
As soon as he ran in, he shouted, “A thief is running in. Everyone, be careful. Look who just came in. My money bag was stolen by him. D*mn it, I still have to go to the small building to partic.i.p.ate in the auction. If I lose my money, I’ll lose my life too..”
