Chapter 1117
"big box?

Do you confirm?

Could it be their luggage? "

The old butler's face showed a serious expression that he had never seen before, and suddenly he felt like thunder was falling from the sky. If he hadn't tried to figure out the situation as soon as possible, he would have fainted immediately.

Sims seemed very helpless. Now he was worried, right?
I called you for such a long time before, but you didn't answer. This is not my responsibility, so I quickly told you what I have learned so far.

"Probably not. When I came to London before, the suitcase that contained the luggage was very heavy, but what we saw was that the suitcase was very light, and there was an extra one coming out.

So that explains the problem, and they all went out, and by the way, I saw the drawing board myself, which is even more suspicious! "

suspicious?

Is not this nonsensical?

If I had known they were carrying suspicious suitcases and drawing boards, how could I have calmly drank tea and eaten delicious food here?

As soon as he heard Sims emphasize the importance of this matter, the old housekeeper felt his blood pressure rise immediately. Do you need to say this?

But it's suspicious, but it can't explain anything. The key is to see where they went when they went out, so the old housekeeper quickly asked: "Did you follow them?
Where did they end up? "

hiss~!

Sims was momentarily confused when faced with this problem. When he thought that he had withdrawn first, he suddenly lost confidence. However, he quickly adjusted and said in a deep voice: "I don't know!"

"what do you not know?"

The old housekeeper immediately got angry and roared, and asked with a livid face: "Did you not catch up with them when they went out?

What do you do for food? Do you no longer want to do it? "

Facing the old butler's anger, Sims knew that he was definitely doing a thankless job this time, but he could only quickly abdicate his responsibility and continue to defend: "I have been calling you, but you don't answer. ah?
The driver went to the restroom. I couldn't keep up with them on the phone all by myself. By the time the driver came back, they were gone! "

Let the driver take the scapegoat, Sims has already figured out that the dead friends will not die poor, anyway, the old housekeeper and the others don't know.

The old housekeeper was stunned for ten seconds, feeling regretful in his heart, why didn't he answer Sims' call?

However, this reason is not very tenable, but now is not a good time for the old housekeeper to pursue this matter. He must quickly find out where Chu Yunfeng and the others have gone.

So he hung up the phone immediately, and then made several calls in a row. Then he took a deep breath and looked at the Duke who had been staring at him.

The Duke's face was full of solemnity, and you could feel the anger building up in his heart. If this matter was not investigated clearly, he would probably not be able to sleep tonight.

"What will be inside the box?

Didn't you guess that this was Orlando's trick before?
Could there be anything beyond our estimation? "

The three questions in a row made the old butler feel very difficult to answer, especially since he despised Orlando from the beginning, which biased his judgment on the matter.

"I will investigate it clearly. Please rest assured, Lord Duke, no matter what is in the box, as long as it belongs to us, it will be brought back."

The old butler knew what the Duke was thinking. At this time, he recalled the box, the box that always made him feel that there was something wrong. Are all the things taken out from there?
But the problem is that I have been studying the box for a long time, but I have never found any problems. How could the other party discover it in the first place?

And can you take out the contents of the box in a very short time?

And took it away so soon?

and many more!

A flash of lightning suddenly flashed in the old butler's head, and he thought of the word "very light" that Sims just mentioned!
And it was packed in a very large suitcase, which only means that if there is something in the box, it must be something very light, which makes sense.

If something very light is in the box, it should be in the mezzanine. According to this inference, it should be something like paper!

paper?

hiss~!

By the way, this box belongs to that art dealer, art dealer, art dealer?
Could it be that there really are paintings hidden inside?

By the way, the drawing board! ! !
Done
When the old housekeeper figured it out in an instant, he suddenly found that the phone in his hand was vibrating. It turned out that it was Sims calling.

"Master Butler, it has been confirmed that there is definitely something wrong with the suitcase that was taken away before, because Ma Fu has already sent someone to pick up another suitcase.

This suitcase looked a bit heavy. I guessed it might be Chu Yunfeng's personal belongings. I immediately followed their car to see where they were going now. "

The moment Sims hung up the phone, the old butler suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and immediately sat down on the ground, not daring to look at the Duke.

Finished!

Really finished!

This time it’s all over!
Slap in the face!
A strong slap in the face!

His face was slapped hard!

If nothing else happens, the loss is estimated to be huge this time. If it is really confirmed that Orlando and the others went to the airport, then they can be completely sure that this box is definitely extraordinary.

"What happened, what happened?"

Seeing the old butler sitting on the ground dejectedly, as if he had lost his mind, the Duke's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Is there really an accident?

"Hua'er, Hua'er, it must be Hua'er."

The old butler was so heartbroken that he shed tears, his lips began to tremble, his mind went blank, he couldn't hear clearly the Duke's questions, he just mechanically repeated what he was thinking.

"Painting? What painting?
what is the problem!

Deron!

You old guy, stand up and speak clearly! "

The Duke was angry. He had never suffered a loss in his life. Is it possible that he would be slapped in the face this time?

He slapped the table hard and felt that his hand hurt from the slap. The old housekeeper was also knocked back to his senses by the heavy sound, but the sad and depressed look on his face did not change at all.

"My lord, I'm sorry for you, I'm really sorry for you!

I was derelict in my duty. I really was derelict in my duty. I may have made a huge mistake this time. Please fire me!

Oh, no, no, no, I'll resign myself and leave now!

Wait, I can't leave, I can't be humiliated for the rest of my life because of this matter, I must handle this matter before I leave.

Lord Duke, please believe me, I will definitely handle this matter! "

The old butler's eyes were a little confused at first, but after arriving, his eyes gradually became clearer, and he felt that his fighting spirit was aroused.

However, the Duke had already heard some clues at this time. He took a deep breath and then asked with a complicated expression: "You mean that box?

Are there paintings in the box?

And there are still a lot of them? "

Seeing the old butler nodding with some certainty, the Duke instantly felt that his heart had been hammered so hard that it was about to stop beating.

Finished!

That is not true, is it?

Where can there be such a coincidence?

The Duke was not so easy to believe in this matter, so he frowned and asked: "I heard you reported that the box seemed to be somewhat special, but you haven't found anything wrong with it after all this time?

But don’t blame yourself too much. I agreed to this matter and it has nothing to do with you! "

It's not determined yet, so don't mess up your position. Besides, the old housekeeper has been loyal for so many years, so there is no need for him to bear such a big responsibility.

After all, they had been together day and night for so many years, so the old housekeeper naturally understood what the Duke meant, so he felt even more guilty.

Just when he was about to speak, there was a call. As soon as the old butler saw the caller ID, he immediately gestured to the Duke and picked up the call.

"What? Are you sure?

Did you really go to the airport?
And someone went to explore the road first, and then others got out of the car?
What?Two boxes of art?

Also inside the drawing board?

Are you sure they are quoted based on the artwork?
Oh, four?And a small box, okay, I get it!
Have you found the flight?
private plane?

The destination is Florence, Italy? ? ?
Okay, I understand, thank you, Mr. Director."

The moment the call was hung up, the old butler knelt down when he looked at the Duke again, and then said with tears: "My lord, I have really been guessed this time.

They all went to Italy, probably to Orlando's manor. Judging from all the information, there may be paintings hidden in the box. We have suffered a big loss this time!

There are two big boxes and a drawing board! ! ! "

The old butler wept loudly, while the Duke had a sullen face, his lips were tightly closed, his eyes were narrowed, and he remained silent.

After a full 2 ​​minutes, the duke immediately stood up and slapped the table heavily with his right hand: "Chase, chase me back, at all costs!
The things belong to me. You want to take my things without thinking about the consequences?
Send someone over and go directly to the manor to ask for Orlando. If he doesn't give it to you, don't blame me for forcing it!
Wait, send someone directly to the airport to block him and get the things back to me. Remember, no matter what the cost! "

Seeing the furious Duke, the old housekeeper was also shocked. He had never seen him so angry before, and he was obviously serious about it.

It seemed that the anger had broken through his reason, but the old housekeeper still remained conscious and replied anxiously: "Isn't this inappropriate?
After all, that place is not our territory. If this thing gets serious, it will have a huge impact on us. And we still don’t know what kind of painting is hidden inside?
If it wasn't important, wouldn't it be a joke? "

The old housekeeper's analysis is very reasonable. I haven't figured out what kind of painting is hidden in this box. If it is not very valuable, it is really not necessary.

But think about it on the other hand, if it's really not worth much, why do they in Orlando use such a large array to safely transport things to the airport?
There are two large boxes. Does this mean how many paintings are hidden in the wooden boxes?

Both of them thought about this issue, but they agreed not to discuss it. After all, talking about such a slap in the face would make people very frustrated.

However, when the old butler saw that the Duke was in a much better mood, he immediately said solemnly: "I will arrange for someone to go to the airport to contact you now. It would be best if we can reach an agreement.

If we can't reach an agreement, we'll find another way, but I'm going to fly over now and I must see with my own eyes what's taken out of this box.

Please rest assured, I will definitely come back with something! "

The Duke squinted his eyes and looked at the old butler for a full minute. Finally, he took a deep breath and nodded helplessly!

The old butler actually had one last thing he didn't say, and he didn't dare to mention it in front of the Duke. That was, if it was a really valuable painting, should he exchange it for it?

Change it back?
What the Duke just meant was not as simple as changing, that is, it is no different from robbing, but it is broad daylight now, and if there is too much movement, it will definitely alarm many people.

After all, Orlando is not an ordinary person. Once a conflict occurs and a diplomatic incident occurs, it is not easy to resolve.

But in the end, it still depends on the value of the painting. If it has no value, then it doesn’t matter.

But the moment the old butler walked out of the castle, he looked back at the place where he had lived for decades and sighed silently in his heart.

If the painting hidden in this box is really worthless, is it necessary to hide it in it?
On the way to the airport, the old butler kept making phone calls and began to arrange various things, the most frequent of which was to immediately inquire about the situation at the Orlando Manor.

"Hurry up and find out the news, especially the situation in the manor, and report to me immediately!
Where are people?Have you arrived at the airport?Their plane will be arriving soon. Stop me quickly. If I don't come, I won't let you go.

Idiot, do you still need me to teach you this?No matter what means you use, you must leave the person behind anyway.

Did you hear me? No matter what the means, people must stay where I am and wait for me to come!

"

After a series of arrangements, the old housekeeper finally got on a private plane and could arrive in about an hour. He believed that he would definitely be able to see Chu Yunfeng and the others when he arrived.

The Duke's things are not so easy to get, just wait for me!
Chu Yunfeng and the others had had a heated discussion before getting on the plane. It would definitely not be that simple to bring things out of London so easily this time.

It should be that the other party hasn't reacted yet, or something went wrong somewhere in the middle, but once the other party wakes up, then according to the Duke's urine, this matter will never be over.

Because the two boxes were not so easy to get through during the security check, they would definitely know this information if they tracked it down.

So after getting off the plane, the competition really started, so Rafael and Orlando had already arranged it in advance.

When the plane landed steadily at Florence Airport, two shuttle buses came to greet it soon, and then a crisp voice was heard: "Mr. Chu, Miss Mu Qing, I'm very happy to see you!"

Who is this if not Bell?

After some pleasantries, Bell waved his hand, and the people behind him brought two boxes, replacing the boxes in Mafu and Raphael's hands. Then Bell and the others took the shuttle bus and left alone. .

People like Chu Yunfeng and Orlando still took the same shuttle bus to leave the airport from the dedicated exit, but the direction and exit taken by Bell were obviously different.

As expected, just as he reached the exit, he found someone gathered around him, and Orlando had naturally ordered someone to pick him up in advance.

So people from both sides immediately confronted each other, which made everyone at the airport look over. Although the people confronting each other were all wearing casual clothes, the headsets above their ears were not ordinary.

So everyone started to speculate, what happened?
Seeing that the expected thing happened, Chu Yunfeng grinned, then I'll play with you.
