Gu Shengsheng overheard the gist of it: an artifact had been stolen, a major incident, so the exhibition was being suspended. No one was allowed to enter or leave the museum.
Gu Shengsheng frowned. Thefts at the Da Ying Museum were a common occurrence; she had often seen them in the news.
This was the first time she'd experienced it herself, though.
Having just arrived in a foreign country, she had no desire to get involved in the commotion. Seeing that everyone else who hadn't gone through security was leaving, Gu Shengsheng decided to turn around and head back to her hotel.
But to her surprise, a security guard stopped her. "Miss, I'll need to see your bag."
Gu Shengsheng: ?
"I didn't go inside. Everyone else is leaving without having their bags checked. Why are you checking mine?"
She didn't understand. On what grounds were they singling her out for a search?
Then, a comment drifted over: "Is she one of those Huaxia people?"
