Chapter 78: Innocent and Indiscriminate (5) - Eden

Although it did not change the outcome of leaving, Hongzi didn't mind.

Weird.

She felt a little reluctant in her heart.

However, as a proud Red Witch, she shouldn't have such feelings.

Hearing Qingzi's call, she thanked the staff member, walked around him and caught up with the people in front.

Kuroba Kaito seemed to be pulled forward by something, and Hongzi guessed that it should be some magic prop.

When she heard Li An say that "the clouds are very thick", she suddenly remembered that during the performance, Li An said that one form of illusionism is "thunder in winter and ice in summer".

But, are there really illusionists who have learned the art of illusion?

It has been lost for so long.

Li An and a few others left the exhibition hall.

When changing shoes, Li An used the carving knife he carried with him to cut the hidden thread, put it away and took off the ring.

By the time I walked out the gate, it was snowing heavily, but there was still a crowd of people outside.

Someone held a banner with blessings for Kaito Kid's successful theft.

Judging from the direction, it should be the Jiang Gutian Art Museum not far away.

Those who had not left yet were discussing in low voices what had happened, and then followed them.

"I was going to stay at the skating rink until Kaito Kidd shows up, but now it seems that's not going to happen... but it doesn't take long now."

"At dusk, I heard sirens all around me. That must be Kaito Kid's rival, Officer Nakamori."

“Their matchup will surely be very exciting!”

"Let's go! Otherwise we won't be able to see Kidd interrupt and make a stunning appearance!"

Hearing the words "Kaito Kid", "Adam's Smile" and the banners expressing their love for the character, Kuroba Kaito looked very pleased with himself.

Kaito Kid can be said to be very honored to have so many audiences for his performance.

Now I have to think about how to get out...

It doesn't seem like it can be called escaping. After all, except Aoko, the other two know his identity as Kaito Kid.

"Really, I don't know why everyone likes Kaito Kid, a thief, so much!" Nakamori Aoko seemed angry and obviously strongly disagreed with this matter.

However, in her heart, she also secretly had some girl's longing for such a handsome character.

In fact, it can be seen from Kuroba Kurian that she does not necessarily really hate the character of "Kaito Kid", but she is just unwilling to say her thoughts as a girl, and besides, stealing is indeed not something to be praised.

She started from another direction and said to Aoko, "Is Uncle Nakamori also in the museum? Why don't you and Kaito wait for him to leave together."

"Yeah...my dad is also in the art museum." Aoko reacted.

Wherever there is Kaito Kid, there is Ginzo Nakamori. This is an established convention.

Ginzo Nakamori, who has been chasing Kaito Kid for eighteen years and is still unrelenting, is truly a hero in the police world.

Li An looked at Hongzi beside him again: "Hongzi, do you need me to take you home?"

"No, I also want to see how Kaito Kidd stole famous paintings in a heavily guarded art gallery."

Koizumi Akako doesn't want to leave now. She wants to see how the so-called "nemesis" Kuroba Kuriyasu can restrain Kaito Kid.

Li An didn't try to persuade her either.

Anyway, with her around, the possibility of Kaito failing is much smaller.

So, a few people followed the crowd and came to the entrance of the art museum.

Shortly after Koizumi Akako left, the housekeeper and servant who was waiting not far from the entrance of the skating rink once again received news that his lady would delay her return home.

housekeeper:……

Didn't the lady send him a message saying she was leaving soon?

……

At this time, the Jianggutian Art Museum was already on high alert.

There were many police cars outside and officers were patrolling outside.

Inside the museum, there are many famous paintings by Casso hanging on the walls, including the "Leisure Angel" which was exhibited at the Yūka Art Museum for a period of time and was highly praised by Director Ochiai.

The style of "Adam's Smile", which is separated from it by a wall, is completely different.

"Adam's Smile" is an abstract painting with high artistic value in this world and is worth 4 million yuan.

Adam's smile is taken from the first male to appear in the Bible. He and Eve have lived in the Garden of Eden since they were created by God.

Tempted by a serpent in the person of an evil spirit, Eve ate the forbidden fruit from the tree and caused Adam to eat it as well.

From then on, they were able to distinguish right from wrong, good from evil, and were therefore exiled to the human world by God.

As the creator in Western mythology, "God" who represents goodness has blinded people's eyes, but still requires people to worship him.

In contrast, the "devil" representing evil guides people to know good and evil, and to understand honor and disgrace.

What is good and evil?

In this painting, the tree above represents God's Garden of Eden, and the brick wall below represents the confinement of the Garden of Eden.

In the painting, Adam smiles because he has eaten the forbidden fruit and is about to break the confinement of Eden.

This is the origin of the name of this painting.

In the upper left corner, the "forbidden fruit" apple is painted as a skull with a bite taken out, symbolizing falling into hell, but in the eyes of the skull, there is a faint glimmer of wisdom.

Terai Yosuke once explained to Kaito: "The general public says that when painting this part, Paikaso used a special pigment that was mixed separately, but I found that there is actually another mystery here-"

"Listen carefully, the time that Kaito Kid has announced is 10 o'clock tonight!" Officer Nakamori, who was wearing a dark green uniform, instructed a team of police officers. Then, he raised his wrist to check the time.

"The time now is-"

Someone interrupted him.

"The year of the Heisei era, January 1, Sunday, 17:8 p.m., 50:16." The man snapped his pocket watch shut and raised his head. "My pocket watch will only have an error of 05 seconds per year."

"The above is for reference only."

It was a young face. He was wearing a well-cut trench coat of the same style as Sherlock Holmes, with a part of the belt hanging naturally, and a deerstalker hat of the same color.

Officer Nakamori saw the news in yesterday's newspaper that this person was about to return to his country, but he did not expect that this person would actually come to steal his job.

"You...you are back from London..."

"White Horse." He turned around, took off his hat, and smiled very gentlemanly. "My name is White Horse Detective."

"Please give me more advice."

Nakamori Ginzo was very dissatisfied with this. He waved his hand and said, "Go back... Go back quickly! There are many places for outsiders like you here!"

"Hey, brother Nakamori, don't be so unkind." The door of the art gallery was pushed open, and a slightly fat police officer in uniform with a kind face walked in.

Behind him, three young girls and a teenager followed closely.

Officer Nakamori looked a little shocked: "You, you are the White Horse Superintendent..."

Behind him was… Officer Nakamori’s eyes widened.

"Aoko? Kuriyasu and Kaito... and this guy is Aoko's classmate, right? Why are you here?"

"father!"
