Chapter 63 Looking for a Stone

After all, Mr. Shi is old. After telling a story, he couldn't bear it any longer. He left Chen Ran with a sentence, "Let's see you later." Mr. Shi helped him to leave the venue. Afterwards, the audience suddenly fell silent, the audience was silent, and the judges were also silent... At this point, can the result of the competition be taken seriously... After a little silence, old man Wang nodded slightly to Professor Xie .

"Wonderful! It's really wonderful! I don't know if everyone has a feeling that this trip is worthwhile. Hey, do you have any? I don't know, but I feel it deeply. Come on, friends, first let us give Give us a round of applause for No. 120 eighth player who created this wonderful battle!"

Professor Xie is worthy of being a master at adjusting the atmosphere of the scene. Just one sentence made the audience boil up. The warm applause was like the surging waves of the sea, and the waves became more ferocious.

The applause like a sea of ​​tide lasted for a long time before it stopped. After the stop, Professor Xie said loudly with a smile: "The applause is here, and now I want to give you the chance to score contestant 120. Tell me, what should you say?"

"Then there's no need to say, pass the test, add [-] points!"

As soon as Professor Xie finished speaking, there was a burst of shouting in the audience.

"How about [-] points, just add [-] points!"

"Full score!"

"Full score!"

"Strongly demand full marks!"

The audience erupted again, but this time it was extremely neat, and there was only one voice in the entire venue—full marks!

A gust of wind blew by, and immediately rolled up bursts of dust.

At noon, the wind blew again in Zhongdu.

People who live in Zhongdu seem to be used to such strong winds, but this is because Zhongdu is always windy.

Throughout the year, any season seems to be inseparable from the company of the wind.

Of course, it is also good to let the wind blow sometimes, but the most disgusting thing is that most of the time, sandstorms tend to blow.

The wind and sand all over the sky, as long as you open your mouth, your mouth will be full of sand.

On the street leading to the North Ring Road from the Provincial Gymnasium, a Land Rover slowly drove through the traffic on the street.

Inside the Land Rover car, it was a little quiet, a little silent, and a little weird... Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu sat side by side in the back seat. Chen Ran was silent, and it couldn't be said that he was silent, or he was already asleep. In the venue, He had been holding on until he got into the car with Yan Ruyu, but couldn't help falling asleep in a daze.

Yan Ruyu looked at Chen Ran who was sleeping, a little funny, but also a little kind, thinking about the scenes of contact with Chen Ran in her mind... Thinking of the scene when she first met this piece of wood, Yan Ruyu couldn't help the corner of her mouth There was a hint of a smile, you piece of wood, you wouldn’t open your mouth to explain it back then, so that I actually admitted that I did that... Ever since I called Chen Ran a piece of wood in the morning, Yan Ruyu got used to treating Chen Ran as a piece of wood wood.

The second time, when everyone, including myself, regarded the Northern Song official kiln plum vase as a high-quality imitation, he appeared so suddenly, and he was shocked on the spot.

The third time in the underground black market, this piece of wood surprised me again... The fourth time... What Yan Ruyu didn't realize was that when she was thinking about it like this, she kept staring at the slightly peaceful piece of paper. Looking at his face, his eyes didn't blink, and the corners of his mouth would evoke a smile from time to time.

Sister Ru, who was driving the car, would look back from time to time, and every time she looked, she couldn't help but frown, oh my god, Xiaoyu wouldn't like this brat!

She opened her mouth, wanting to remind Yan Ruyu, but in the end she didn't open her mouth, but she suddenly thought, with Xiaoyu's life experience and temperament, how could it be possible to fall in love with such an ordinary man who has never seen any man before? Average guy?

Thinking of this, she felt relieved, and just when she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Yan Ruyu's soft voice deliberately lowered suddenly came from behind: "Sister Ru, drive slowly, he is asleep Don't wake him up!"

Sister Ru: "..."

Back in the room he was familiar with, Chen Ran fell headfirst on the bed. He was so tired that he didn't even bother to move a finger.

He has been using supernatural powers for half a day, and his energy has long been exhausted. At the end, he has been holding on. At that time, if there is a slight negligence in the spirit, there will be a sudden vision in front of his eyes. Black, as if about to faint.

The exhausted Chen Ran just fell asleep on the bed. He was in a deep sleep. The doorbell rang, but he didn't hear it, and the phone rang, but he didn't hear it either.

Chen Ran was woken up by hunger again, and the feeling of waking up from hunger was very uncomfortable. When he got out of bed, he opened the freezer first, took out a bottle of mineral water, and drank the whole bottle of mineral water in one go. After drinking, His stomach felt better, and he wasn't picky about food, so he just ordered instant noodles, and he just had enough to eat.

After he finished eating, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon. When he returned to his room, he found that there were more than 20 missed calls on his mobile phone. Most of these missed calls were from unfamiliar mobile phone numbers. Chen Ran knew who called these numbers. Those who came were all guests from the venue, and he still had a lot of business cards in his pocket.

He put his phone into airplane mode and put it in his pocket. Suddenly, Chen Ran was taken aback. He suddenly remembered one thing, that was the dream he had last night, which was the stone in the trash can. , After working for a long time, I almost forgot about it.

Now that he suddenly remembered, how dare he be negligent, and hurried out with the key.

As a result, people in the community saw the strange scene again in the morning. When Chen Ran was digging through the garbage in the morning, it happened to be working time, but now it happened to be off work time. When every resident passed by, he couldn't help but stare at him strangely. Two eyes, but fortunately, most of them have seen Chen Ran rummaging through the trash can in the morning, and now he is not surprised when he sees it, and he is not so surprised anymore.

After searching the trash can on the left, Chen Ran couldn't find the stone, and then he also searched the trash can on the right, but still found nothing, which immediately made him puzzled!

Could it be that the stone was thrown out tomorrow morning?

The scene in the dream was that two or three days later, there were rumors in the community that Mr. Liu picked up a broken stone in the trash can in front of the No. [-] building and sold it for hundreds of thousands. The time when Mr. Liu sold the stone was tomorrow morning.

This means that Mr. Liu either picked it up tonight, or tomorrow morning!

No matter when it was, it would undoubtedly be extremely unfavorable to Chen Ran. He had to pick up the stone before tonight. If he couldn't find the stone in advance, it was obvious that the stone would still be picked up by Teacher Liu in the end.

In this regard, even Chen Ran cannot compare with Teacher Liu.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran considered whether to sit here and wait...wait!

Suddenly, Chen Ran was startled, and he suddenly thought of something, that is, he learned in his dream that this matter was all told from other people's mouths.

Thinking about it now, is what they said accurate? After all, they didn’t see it with their own eyes, and it was just hearsay. The news they heard was still such a surprising thing.

Just like Mr. Liu sold the stones from his own collection for hundreds of thousands, but it was rumored that Mr. Liu picked them from the trash can and sold them for hundreds of thousands. Such a thing seems not impossible , after all, this is how Chinese people think.

Or even if the stone was not collected by Mr. Liu, it was picked up, but not necessarily picked up in the trash can!

Chen Ran's brows furrowed unknowingly. If this is the case, obviously, even if he knew about it, he might not be able to get this stone.

It's okay to say that Teacher Liu picked it up elsewhere in the community, but I'm afraid that Teacher Liu didn't pick it up at all, but collected it himself.

In this case, even if he finds out which apartment Mr. Liu lives in and goes to buy it, Mr. Liu is not stupid. Teacher Liu took the stone and asked someone in the collection circle to ask casually, and I am afraid that he would know the origin of the stone.

It's really difficult!

With a soft murmur, Chen Ran was going to search the community first, and now he can only take one step at a time, search the community first, and if not, check which apartment in the community There lived a teacher Liu.

Chen Ran first started to look around the trash can, and he didn't miss any of the lawns in the community, black, white, gray, red... As long as it was a stone, he would pick it up and take a closer look. Building No. [-] After the previous search, I went to search in other nearby areas.

In this way, other people looked at him even more strangely, guessing nothing, but fortunately, Yan Ruyu was standing with him in the morning, and no one regarded him as a trash picker.

Most people guessed that he lost his token of love. His girlfriend lost his temper with him. Those who met Yan Ruyu in the morning regarded Yan Ruyu as Chen Ran's girlfriend. Such a beautiful girlfriend, even if No matter how hard he worked, he had to find the things back. In the end, even a few couples who were idle in the community came up and asked him what he was looking for, and they helped him find it.

Chen Ran didn't dare to ask them to help, but he didn't explain their misunderstanding, which was just right. If people found out that he was looking for a stone worth hundreds of thousands, the whole community might have to dig through the garbage.

After tossing and tossing for more than an hour and still finding nothing, Chen Ran went to Building No. [-] and took a closer look at the corridor of the unit building of Apartment No. [-].

still none!

Sighing lightly, Chen Ran turned around and left the corridor of the unit, ready to go to the property to find out which apartment lived a middle school teacher surnamed Liu. He just stepped out of No. old man with hands.

"Boy!"

When the old man and Chen Ran were about to pass each other, the old man suddenly stopped Chen Ran.

"Grandpa, hello!" Although a little surprised, Chen Ran still stopped and greeted the old man politely.

Chen Ran's claim immediately made the old man laugh cheerfully: "I saw you rummaging through the trash can in the morning, and now the yard is full of rummaging, young man, what are you looking for, I have been in the community all day Stay here, tell me, maybe I will have a little impression."

Chen Ran was a little silent. Although the other party was well-intentioned, he didn't know how to explain it. After a short silence, he said: "Grandpa, thank you very much, but now I don't want to look for it anymore, so I won't bother you!"

"That's it..." Hearing what Chen Ran said, the old man felt a little disappointed. After being disappointed, he thought that Chen Ran was disheartened, so he even tried to comfort Chen Ran. Chen Ran could only smile wryly.

Fortunately, the old man didn't say much, and quickly said goodbye to him and headed towards the apartment.

Chen Ran also turned around and left, but just as he turned around and took two steps, there was a sudden pop from behind, and then he heard the old man's complaint. When the sound came, Chen Ran couldn't help turning around Looking at... the scene that caught his eye, he was stunned for a moment!
