MTL - Conan’s World Stand-in-Chapter 32 look at my luminous watch
"Seba is an art collector, and especially likes to collect fakes that are enough to look like real ones. Naturally, it doesn't matter how many fakes there are, as many as you can..."
"Furthermore, as an art collector, Sewa's appreciation level of these paintings should not be that low. Even a layman like me can see how much the "Sunflower" appeared in the guest room. It's abrupt... If I force it to explain, maybe the taste of art collectors happens to be the opposite of ordinary people like me? It's too reluctant..."
"In other words, painting is the key to realizing space transfer. There are no secret passages on the wall, but it is not that there is no secret passage, but... the painting is the secret passage itself?"
"His ability is to travel through space through paintings?"
"If that's what he's capable of, coupled with the fact that he likes to collect fakes, the limit to that ability is likely to be 'walking through similar paintings'. To verify that, just look at that room. It's just a matter of whether there are similar paintings in the bathroom he used to make his alibi."
After figuring out this joint, Guan Dounan asked the police officer next to him about the location of the restroom, and hurried over.
This restroom is located on the second floor, and it is on the other short side of the concave building. It takes at least three minutes to go back and forth between the two places. When he came to the door of the bathroom, Guan Dounan found that there were also several police officers who were attentively extracting various possible traces, and a cordon was also set up outside the door.
"I'm sorry, because this bathroom is very small, in order to prevent contamination during the evidence collection process, we can't let you in."
The police officer who was guarding outside declined Guan Dounan's request to enter, but the space inside was really not big. After standing with three police officers, it seemed difficult to even turn around. There was really no place for Guan Dounan to enter again.
"Then, can I ask a question? Is there a painting in this bathroom, that is, Van Gogh's "Sunflowers"?" Anyway, it was just to see if there was such a painting, it didn't matter if I went in or not.
"'Sunflower'? It doesn't seem like there is such a painting. You don't usually hang that kind of painting in the bathroom, right?"
"Then, are there any other paintings, posters, photos or something?" Guan Dounan was taken aback and continued to ask.
"This, it doesn't seem to be there either." The policeman turned his head and glanced in, and gave a negative answer.
"It shouldn't be, I guessed it wrong?" Guan Dounan frowned. Could it be that those paintings were simply a by-product of Seyu's unique taste, and his ability was simply to pass through walls?
"Something burnt, or it was shredded and washed away...is there?"
"What kind of weird questions are you asking? There shouldn't be any such thing, right?" He checked his face with the forensic officer inside.
"Nothing burned, and nothing like that was found in the sink drain. But if it's all flushed down the toilet, it's hard to say, maybe you need to do a more detailed inspection... If you're interested , you can go to the septic tank and ask."
"Uh... No need, thank you." Guan Dounan's mouth twitched slightly, and he replied embarrassingly but politely.
He just asked for a moment. "Sunflower" is an oil painting with a size of nearly one square meter. Let's not talk about the area. It is very difficult to cut an oil painting that is really drawn with a pen, especially when it is cut to pieces so that nothing is left. Degree.
"Ah, but it's a bit strange." The forensic officer who was questioned suddenly stuck his head out and said, "The rest of the restroom is normal, but the towel next to it seems to have been used. There is also a strong smell of toothpaste, and the toothbrush next to it also has traces of being used, which is probably around the time of the crime." The police officer of the Forensics Division pointed to the towel and toothbrush beside the sink, "Could it be Se Mr. Yu also brushed his teeth when he went to the toilet?"
"Toothpaste...Toothpaste, is that so?" Guan Dounan repeated the keyword toothpaste several times in a low voice, suddenly as if he had thought of something.
"that…"
"Sir, are you looking for a bathroom? I can take you to another bathroom that is available now."
Just as Guan Dounan was about to continue asking the police officer a question, a maid who should have been hired by Seyu Villa suddenly interrupted him behind him.
"No, actually... well, please, please take me there."
Guan Dounan wanted to refuse, but when he turned around, he saw this little maid who was wearing a black and white maid outfit, with a few freckles on her reddish face, and her eyes seemed to glow. After a moment of hesitation, she agreed.
"Ah, it's really a young man. You can attract girls with just one face..." The plain-looking police officer looked at Guan Dounan and the little maid who led him away, even in a hurry. He touched his old face with emotion.
"Che, when I was young, I was a handsome guy who didn't lose to that young man."
"Come on, Officer Heji, you've had this hairstyle since you were 20 years old. How dare you compare your appearance with others."
"Hairstyle...how can the thing about hairstyle be called appearance? That's an add-on..."
…
"This is the restroom that can be used, please use it as you like." The little maid took Guan Dounan upstairs and came to a restroom on the third floor, "That...my name is Shibata Mika, sir, can you tell me about you? name?"
"Is it my name..." Guan Dounan squinted his eyes slightly, then suddenly took a step forward, raised his hand and pressed it against the wall. With his very prominent height among the neon people, he directly gave the little maid Shibata a wall.
"If you can answer me a few questions, I can tell you my name."
Perhaps it is the distorted aesthetics unique to Neon people. Even if the height in terms of data is not short, whether it is an actress, female idol, or even a maid hired to work, they are all girls with a petite figure of less than 1.6 meters. Shibata Mika was no exception. At this time, almost the whole person was shrouded in the shadow of Guan Dounan.
"Good good good good good!"
Shibata Mika, an ordinary girl who came to work during the holidays through work-study programs, has absolutely no experience in love. Originally, I just saw Guan Dounan's good looks and temperament, and he was also polite when dealing with people. He mustered up the courage to come up and talk to each other. Who knows now, this young boy seems to be a carnivorous beast!
The little maid's face quickly turned red in the shadow, and her legs involuntarily rose up, making herself look a little shorter.
"The first question is..." Guan Dounan put his face close to Shibata Meijia's ear, his voice was low, and the hot air from his mouth blew on the little maid's ear, causing her brain to almost overheat and emit steam.
It's just that Guan Dounan's brain is also running wildly in places she can't see, and it looks like it will be overloaded soon.
I originally wanted to use the character "professional spy who coaxes little girls into exchange for information through their looks" to perform, but this kind of role is really inexperienced, and it is not that he has not seen spy war dramas, but this kind of plot is average They are all female characters, the only reference is probably the domineering presidents in those romance dramas...
But this kind of role is really easy to make people feel physically sick.
"Is there a warehouse or basement in this villa that stores the paintings Seba bought?"
"Eh?"
Mika Shibata now feels like she is being dragged into the room by a handsome guy, threw herself on the bed and covered the quilt, and then watch his new luminous watch together...
"That is, usually no one will go, it is very hidden, and no one will find out what you do."
...then after watching the luminous watch, the handsome guy took off the watch and started to unbutton his clothes by the way.
"Yes, there should be. I heard from the seniors that in the basement of this villa there are many paintings that Mr. Seba bought and did not hang. However, only the master has the keys there, except when buying new works. No one else will go in."
Shibata Mika stammered, and emphasized that no one could get in without Sewa's key. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"Buying new works... Then, what kind of works does he usually buy? Is there any special preference?" Guan Dounan nodded and continued to ask.
"This... I'm not very good at art and the like, and I don't feel that I have any bias. There are imitations of famous paintings, as well as original works, whether it is oil painting, watercolor painting, ink painting, or even comics and woodblock prints." See Guan Dounan's attention It seems that the focus is not on her body but on the paintings. Shibata Mika rolled her eyes and tried her best to recall, "What's special about it... Are the paintings you bought in pairs?"
"Pairs?"
"Yes, it's exactly the same. It is said that it was painted by a professional painter. Those painters have complained about why they painted two identical paintings before. In their opinion, it is only what craftsmen do, and it does not match their status as artists. ."
"Well...but I still drew it in the end. This should be the so-called 'I wanted to scold him, but he gave too much'..." Guan Dounan couldn't help but complain.
"That's right..." Shibata Mika nodded in agreement.
"Then, the last question." Guan Dounan raised his finger, "Seyu, can he paint by himself? I mean 'yes' in technique."
"This... I'm really not sure. After all, I'm just here to do odd jobs, and I've never seen Mr. Seyu paint before, but according to common sense, since I'm an art collector, I can always paint a little, right? Shouldn't it be? As for stickman drawing like me..."
Shibata Mika tilted her head and thought for a while, then suddenly looked up at Guan Dounan, "Sir, aren't you a famous painting thief or something? Just like that phantom thief Kid..."
