Chapter 503 Sunflowers of Hellfire (19)

In the reception room, everyone was discussing a mysterious notice letter.

Hideo Harada asked first: "Based on this notice alone, why did everyone conclude that his target was this art museum? Could you explain it in detail?" There was a hint of doubt in his words.

Higashi Koji immediately responded: "The 'lullaby' in the preview letter should refer to the painting 'Woman Rocking the Cradle', not 'Sunflowers'." His explanation was clear and concise.

However, Nakamori Ginzo shook his head and said, "No, the key lies in what is written at the back: 'the original copy on the left.'" There was a hint of certainty in his tone.

At this time, Kogoro Mori interrupted and said, "The 'left side' should refer to the triptych." There was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, the museum secretary couldn't help but wonder, "A triptych?"

Maori Kogoro nodded and explained, "Yes, it is a set of three paintings, or hanging scrolls."

But Harada Hideo said: "No, we are all clear about this. What we want to know is why 'Lullaby' points to 'Sunflower'?" There was a hint of urgency in his tone.

Maori Kogoro was also stunned: "Is it because...what is it because of?"

Nakamori Ginzo looked at Maori Kogoro with some dissatisfaction: "You really should pay more attention! You are one of us too!"

Seeing this, Charlie suggested: "Why not let Mr. Higashi Koji, who opened this notice letter, explain it."

Suzuki Jirokichi also agreed: "That's fine. Dong, are you okay with that?"

Higashi Kouji nodded and began to explain: "Yes. Let's start with the triptych that Detective Mori mentioned earlier. Please try to put "Lullaby" in the middle in your mind. Then, the paintings on the left and right should be..."

Hideo Harada suddenly realized: "It's Sunflowers!"

Higashi Kouji smiled and nodded, "That's right. There was an illustration attached to the letter Van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo. This part should be correct. If we try to arrange each painting according to the illustration, the two sides of "Lullaby" are "Sunflowers". On the right are the third and seventh paintings, and on the left are the fourth, fifth, and sixth paintings. Among them, the one on the left is the first copy of "Sunflowers", which is the fifth "Sunflowers" painting exhibited in this art museum."

Upon hearing this, Harada Hideo couldn't help but sigh, "I see. So, the Sunflowers in our museum are indeed targeted by him. So how should we prevent it now? Kidd announced that the time is tonight."

Ginzo Nakamori immediately made a decision: "Sunflowers must be moved to a safe place immediately!"

The museum secretary was a little embarrassed: "But there is no way to do it right away..."

Harada Hideo interrupted her: "I understand. I will explain the reason to the guests and close the museum as early as possible."

Ginzo Nakamori said gratefully: "Thank you very much for your cooperation."

Inside the art gallery, staff were busy moving the precious sunflower painting.

Shi Ling Tai Shan gave instructions and encouraged, "Yes, very good, take your time. Yes, just go straight ahead like this, and don't make any mistakes."

Looking at the busy people, Gongtai Xiamei couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything we can do to help now?"

Keiko Anderson thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "Well..."

Ginzo Nakamori praised: "As expected of Mr. Shi Ling from Cheetah Cargo, it is really admirable that such progress can be made in 30 minutes."

Maori Kogoro looked down at his watch and frowned slightly: "There is still an hour until sunset, it looks like we should be able to make it in time."

Nakamori Ginzo nodded in agreement: "Well, you are right."

Shiling Taishan emphasized again: "Yes, take your time, that's it."
