Chapter 24 The True Face of Scumbags,

It was Elaine who opened the door. Seeing that it was Chen Yu, the silly girl was stunned.

"Good afternoon, Elaine, it was Marlene who called me to come."

Chen Yu explained, then squeezed past her and walked straight into the living room.

In the living room, Marlene seemed to be looking through several documents seriously. Next to her was a woman in her sixties and a white man of similar age.

Needless to ask, these two are both Marlene's friends or neighbors. She should have called her over to give her courage, or she could also be said to be witnesses!

The two old men seemed to be unaware of the situation, with a relaxed expression and sat on the sofa casually.

Opposite Marlene were two guys in suits and ties, both of whom were about forty years old, and they were packing up quite neatly, each carrying a briefcase, which looked quite like that.

Obviously, this is what Marlin said on the phone, the so-called senior officials of the auction house.

As for the scum Andre, he stood behind these two guys, staring at an oil painting placed on the coffee table, which was the work of the master of the Brutalist Matisse.

With Chen Yu's arrival, the scene suddenly became quiet and everyone looked at him.

The moment he saw him, Marlin immediately breathed a sigh of relief and placed the documents in her hand on the coffee table. She seemed to have relaxed a lot and finally no longer had to install it!

Andre was stunned for a moment, and a hint of panic quickly appeared on his face, his eyes flashed and hatred.

This scumbag obviously realized that something was wrong!

The other people in the living room didn't know Chen Yu, but just looked at him curiously!

Chen Yu quickly glanced at the situation in the living room, nodded to everyone at the scene, and then walked towards Marlin.

At this moment, Andre suddenly walked over quickly and reached out to stop him.

"Renault, who invited you? You are not welcome here, please leave!"

When he said this, the scumbag gritted his teeth and his eyes were full of hatred.

If there is another occasion, if he has a pistol on his body, he will definitely take out the pistol and fire without hesitation to kill Chen Yu!

"Bang"

Chen Yu directly patted his arm blocking in front of him and said with a disdainful sneer:

"Andre, if I remember correctly, this is Marlene's home, not yours. Marlene called me to come. What qualifications do you have to let me leave?"

As he said that, he had walked past Andre and came to Marlene.

Looking at the scum Andre, he grinned and shook his arms lightly. He obviously suffered a secret loss, but he was inconvenient to speak out, so he could only endure the pain!

Chen Yu just slapped his arm open, and he was not polite at all. He used all his strength to be enough for this scumbag to suffer!

At this time, Elaine also returned to the living room, still confused.

"You really called Renault? Marlene, why don't I know when did you call?"

Marlene nodded and gave a positive answer.

"Yes, I called Renault over. About half an hour ago, I called in the bedroom upstairs, and you didn't know it!"

Hearing this, Elaine could only nod.

A hint of hatred flashed in Andrei's eyes, but he didn't say anything. He could only stare at Chen Yu with gritted teeth, wishing he could pounce on him and tear him up!

"Malin, you didn't sign any documents? Are those modern artworks present and didn't give them to others?"

Chen Yu looked at the oil painting on the coffee table and the documents, and then asked with concern.

Marlene shook her head gently.

"Thank you for coming in time, Renault, I remember what you said on the phone, without signing any documents, and without giving the paintings and sculptures to anyone!"

"That's great! Marlene, you did a very good job. Leave the next thing to me!"

As he said that, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, he looked at the two so-called senior officials in the so-called auction house in suits and ties opposite him.

"Good afternoon, gentlemen, I've disturbed your work. My name is Renault. I work in the Louvre. I'm Elaine's friend. I'm very happy to know you. I don't know what you call me?"

Hearing this self-introduction, the two guys' faces immediately changed and they quickly returned to normal.

They instantly understood that they might have encountered a real expert, and it was a big trouble!

But as a liar, their ability to control emotions is still very good. Staying calm in the face of danger is the basic quality. After all, they have to rely on this ability to make a living.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Renault, I'm very happy to meet. My name is Russell. This is Batum. We are from Sotheby's Auction House Modern Art Department and are mainly responsible for collecting lots,..."

One of the guys shook hands with Chen Yu and introduced himself, showing his behavior very naturally.

But he didn't know that when he saw them in the door, Chen Yu knew what these two so-called senior executives of Sotheby's auction house were!

They are indeed auction house staff, but they work in a pheasant auction company, not the famous Sotheby's Auction House!

The owner of the pheasant auction house is Andre's father. He usually relies on fraudulent collection enthusiasts to maintain his operation, and occasionally holds one or two small auctions that cannot be put on the table!

In private, the auction house is a tool for Russian gangs to smuggle, steal and robbery antique artifacts and artworks, and sell stolen goods.

In Andre and Enes' memory, Chen Yu had seen these two guys for a long time, and knew that they had done many illegal activities!

The guy was about to say it, but was interrupted by Chen Yu.

"It turns out that you are from Sotheby's Auction. I am very familiar with this top auction house, and I am also familiar with the Modern Art Department. I have also participated in several of your large auctions.

Your modern art manager, Mr. Lemayer, I happen to know you. Why don’t I call him and ask him to come here too and enjoy these modern artworks…”

As he said that, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and then began to flip the address book.

This is not the end, he made another blow.

"I forgot to tell you that on the way here just now, I called a police officer from the Art Crime Department of the Paris Police Department and asked him to bring someone to see what's going on here.

I work in the Louvre and sometimes deal with these police officers responsible for investigating art crimes, so I know them, and I guess they are coming soon. I will introduce you to you!”

Before he finished speaking, Russell and Batum's faces suddenly changed and became very ugly. They all turned their heads and looked at the door, with panic on their faces.

Andrey's the same, his face turned pale in an instant, just like his dead father!

Seeing the behavior of the few of them, the others in the living room were stunned, while Chen Yu looked disdainful.

The next moment, Russell squeezed out an ugly smile and said:

"Mr. Reno, don't call Mr. Lemayer. He is very busy today and is preparing for an Impressionist art auction. I guess there is no time to come here, and we are leaving.

Ms. Marlene, it seems that you have not yet decided whether to entrust these modern artworks to our auction house for auction. Since that is the case, you can think about it slowly and let’s talk about this matter again!

This afternoon we had another collector, and went to his house to see a few modern artworks he collected. The time is almost over, so we will say goodbye first. If you have any questions, you can call us!"

After saying that, before Marlin could respond, the guy put away the documents on the coffee table, picked up the briefcase and walked towards the door, hurriedly rushing to reincarnate!

The guy named Batum was not willing to fall behind and immediately followed.

Before Marlin and the others could react, these two guys had quickly walked out of the house and ran away like two stray dogs!

"I'll go and send them off and ask what's going on"

Andre said, then chased after him, also very panicked.

It was not until this time that Marlin and the others realized that the three old men immediately looked at each other and then laughed together.

Elaine first looked outside the door, then looked at Chen Yu, and asked with a cold face:

"What the hell is going on? Renault, I need an explanation!"

Chen Yu smiled and then took out his cell phone.

"Don't worry, Elaine, before explaining these things, please watch a video. After watching the video, you will know the truth and will also recognize a person's ugly face.

At that time, I shouldn’t have to explain anything, but you need to be mentally prepared. This video may make you feel uncomfortable or even painful!”

As he said that, Chen Yu turned on his phone and sent the video of Andre calling to Elaine.

After receiving the video, Elaine immediately started to check it out.

As the video began to play, her face quickly turned pale from normal, and her expression became more and more painful. Tears quickly appeared in her eyes, and she could not even stand!

At first, she seemed to be a little unbelievable, but when she saw the back, she only had pain in her eyes and no longer had any doubts!

At the same time, Andre's angry voice in the video also echoed in the living room.

Listening to this Russian voice, Marlin and the others didn't understand it, so they could only hear that the person who called was Andre!

At this moment, Chen Yu suddenly spoke:

"Elaine, this video was taken when I came here last time. Andre called me out and threatened me to stay away from you. His real purpose was to keep me away from the modern artworks collected by Marlene!

Next, he received a call and quarreled with the other party in Russian on the phone. Seeing that the situation was a little strange, I secretly took the video and then asked a friend from Sorbonne University to translate it out!…”

Chen Yu was about to continue talking, but Elaine suddenly collapsed.

"Stop talking! This is so disgusting!"

Elaine roared loudly and smashed her phone hard on the floor, her whole face full of tears!

The next moment, she suddenly turned around and rushed out of the living room, obviously going to question Andre!

Seeing this scene, Chen Yu immediately prepared to go out and protect Elaine from being hurt by the scumbag.

At this moment, Marlin reached out and grabbed him and shook her head gently.

"Renault, don't go out first. Since Elaine recognized the wrong person, she should be punished so that she can have a memory and look at people with her brain in the future!"

Hearing this, Chen Yu could only stop and look out the door with concern.

In a blink of an eye, a fierce quarrel came from outside the door, mixed with Elaine's questioning and crying.

Immediately afterwards, another crazy curse that was so angry that it was coming from the scum Andre.

"Bang!"

With a crisp slap in the face, Elaine's cry suddenly stopped.
Chapter completed!
