53. Fall out of the water! The answer to recall

"The Seventh Black Knight, Mordred, is dead? Who killed it? Custer asked in surprise. The Thousand-Faced Monster Thief touched his chin: "I wasn't killed by anyone, I guess I died a normal death." Grant taunted: "Vampires have eternal blood, let alone Modred, a knight!" Your story is a little outrageous. ”

The Thousand-Faced Thief's finger twitched the table: "My story is for those who believe, if you don't believe it, you can plug your ears." Grant's anger jumped up again, and he was just about to get angry when he was stopped by Sephard: "Anyway, we can't make a decision until Simon comes back, so we might as well listen to it." ”

Grant: "You believe it too?" Custer plucked out his ears and said casually: "It's not too late to expose the flaws, if the story made up at the interrogation table can't be seen, then it's a waste of this police uniform, do you say it's Inspector Grant." ”

Custer was obviously using the agitation method, although Grant knew in his heart that it was the agitation method, but he couldn't argue, so he could only sit in his chair and stare dryly. "Hah!" Custer was secretly happy. Sephar made a "please" gesture, and the Thousand-Faced Thief spoke as he stirred the coffee with a mixing stick

"It happened three months ago......."

March before the National Museum of the United Nations

The National Museum is bustling with people almost every day, but in recent days it has been especially crowded, firstly because of the museum's recent display of rare paintings found in underground markets, and secondly, because the paintings have just been exhibited and received a letter of challenge from the Thousand-Faced Thief.

Everyone wants to see the famous painting and at the same time want to see what the Monster Thief looks like, and how he can steal the painting this time.

"A letter stirs up a thousand waves". This incident even alarmed the United Nations Congress, and even the President personally issued a decree to catch this international thief who was in danger of the world's cultural property. Basically, the country's top security forces have converged on the National Museum.

In the face of the thief's letter, Yilian plans to use the famous painting as bait and wants to personally press him down on Yilian's land, if he can successfully capture this notorious art thief, then the Atlantic Federation led by Yilian can also win a game of the Pacific Alliance in terms of international reputation.

As the saying goes: "Leaders move their mouths, and employees break their legs." "The carefully selected security elite don't know when, where, and how the Monster Thieves will appear, but they have absolute confidence in their capture, because they are superior in both human and financial resources.

Right now, three-thirds of the crowd visiting the exhibition are security guards in disguise. At night, a security system that can detect a needle on the ground and three times as many security personnel surround the museum like a bucket.

Every second of 24 hours a day, the security elite of the National Museum are not convinced that a thief can defeat them with excellent equipment. The exhibition lasts for one week. For the first six days, the Thousand-Faced Thief had not appeared. So the tense seventh day.

Everyone's nerves were tense to the extreme, but in the end, when the morning sun rose over the horizon on Monday, the Monster Thief still didn't show up. Everyone thinks that the Thousand Faces Thief is afraid, in the presidential palace. Even the president's speech "in defense of the victory of the art" has been prepared.

But when it came time to dismantle the exhibition, everyone present was shocked. Because they found out that the painting in their hands was actually a fake! No one knew when and how the Thousand Faces thief stole the painting. But there is one pair of eyes that knows one qiΔ“, and he is - Mordred.

"I met him at the airport. He was sitting next to me, the only one who saw me swap the drawings on the first day. The Thief with a Thousand Faces: "Actually, I was quite frustrated at the time, but he didn't demolish me. It's about making a deal with me. ”

Hu Che: "Deal? Thief with a Thousand Faces: "The first time I saw him, I didn't think he looked like an ordinary person, but I never thought he was a vampire!" I really can't guess that there are such creatures as vampires in this world. I can't even think of a vampire going to make a deal with me. ”

Long Wen: "Most of the transactions are 'give your blood or something'. Sephar laughed and said, "You've watched too many movies." Long Wen: "Maybe, "Four Hundred Years of Horror". "Thief with a Thousand Faces:"Actually, I was already targeted by him before I paid attention to that famous painting, and the reason why he targeted me was also very strange. ”

Sephar: "Do you want you to pretend to be him?" "The Thief with a Thousand Faces:" He briefly introduced the general context of Mafia and the vampire clan in the shadows, and then as you said, asked me to pretend to be him and help the 'godson' Al. Vlad completes his plan to usurp power. ”

Hearing this, Custer suddenly craned his neck and looked at the Thousand-Faced Monster Thief: "You said 'godson'....'usurpation'... Could it be that he... Killed the Black Godfather and the White Godfather? Thief with a Thousand Faces: "Are you surprised?" In fact, the godson had already decided to do so from the first day he entered Mafia, and it should be said that this plan had been in the making for a long time. ”

"From the first day of entering Mafia? What the hell is going on? Thief with a Thousand Faces: "Anyway, Mordred really wants to help the 'godson' usurp power, but he himself already feels that his life is coming to an end, so he wants me to pretend to be him to help the 'godson' complete the plan." ”

Long Wen: "It seems that this Mordred is already a complete 'princeling', it turns out that he was the first to defect. Grant snorted coldly: "Mordred is the oldest vampire among the Black Knights, I didn't expect to be rebelled by this hairy boy!" The Black Godfather sent him to this little bastard to spy on him, but he didn't expect ......"

Before Grant could finish his words, he heard Custer say coldly, "Please don't call him a mongrel." Grant: "What?" Do you want to be stupid and try to make amends for your bastard brother? He's a complete devil now! Custer grabbed Grant by the collar and swelled anger in his eyes.

Grant pouted the corners of his mouth sarcastically without speaking: "Why don't you have a reason to argue for him, huh!" If you had killed him earlier, there wouldn't have been so many tragedies! The more Grant spoke, the more excited he became, and the patience of both sides reached the limit, and seeing that it was time for Cheng DΓΉ to swing his fists at each other, at this time Long Wen suddenly put his hand on it

Custer grabbed Grant's collar by the hand.

Long Wen: "Let's listen to the ins and outs, it's not too late for you to fight again." Custer glanced at Long Wen, his tone was flat but the hand on the back of his hand was as attractive as a rock, Long Wen nodded at him comfortingly, Cust let go of his hand at this time, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I'm too impulsive, please continue." ”

At this point, Sepal said to Grant, "Let's switch places!" Grant said coldly: "I think so too." The cold walls maintained the fragile relationship between everyone present, and the Thousand-Faced Monster Thief continued after seeing the scene settle down: "I was very hesitant at the time and didn't know how much truth he said, but what I was most concerned about was what he said about the 'deal'. ”

Hu Che: "I'm also curious, what is the deal that will attract you to go deep into Mafia to accept this dangerous mission?" The Thousand Faces Thief replied in a deep voice, "In the Godfather's succession ceremony, in addition to Mafia's rights, there will be a mysterious thing that will only appear during the inheritance ceremony, and that is the 'Fourteen Colors Rainbow Source Stone'. ”

Everyone: "Fourteen-colored rainbow source stones?" The Thief with a Thousand Faces: "You should know the crystal brooch that symbolizes the status of the godfather." Custer: "The knight has it too." "The Thief with a Thousand Faces: "The Black Godfather and the White Godfather wear different crystals, but in fact they come from the same crystal, which is the 'Rainbow Source Stone', which has a strange fourteen colors. As far as I know, it's the only crystal stone in the world that has fourteen colors. ”

"Part of this crystal is carved into the godfather's brooch, and the rest is secretly hidden, only at the godfather's inheritance ceremony, can it be shown to the next godfather as a part of the ceremony, and the 'deal' that Mordred said is that once the 'godson's plan is successful, then he will inherit the power to become Mafia's godfather, and the 'rainbow source stone' will appear during the inheritance ceremony, and then he can steal the only 'rainbow source stone' in the world as Mordred."

Thief with a Thousand Faces: "In the end I agreed, that's all." Custer: "You can go undercover with Mafia's godson for a stone, have you ever thought that if you are exposed, you may not even have the ashes left?" Thief with a Thousand Faces: "Yes, but Mordred's offer is too tempting for me to refuse." ”

Hu Che nodded with deep feeling at this time: "If it is exchanged for banknotes, I can't refuse." Custer: "You've been with the 'godson' for three months as Mordred, and he's never been suspicious?" The Thief with a Thousand Faces: "It was because he doubted me that I almost lost my life, but I finally found you, oh! By the way, I also picked up a knight. ”

Long Wen: "Picked it up?" The Thief with a Thousand Faces: "Well, the first white knight 'Gawain' escaped with me. Hearing this, Long Wen was full of question marks: "Gao Wen? Hu Che: "Oops! Hurry up and make up the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in a certain Wikipedia. Long Wen immediately began to flip through the phone at this time: "Oh, hurry up and check, live to learn." ”

Excluding Longwen's and Huche, the rest of the people who knew the inside of Mafia, Custer, Grant and Sefal stared at the Thousand Faces Thief with incredulous eyes: "Things are really getting more and more complicated. (To be continued......)
