Chapter 212: Buying the Rice Flower Art Museum

"It's a bit serious, but it's not too out of the ordinary for the time being."

At the door of the Rice Flower Art Museum, Mu Yuan looked at the director of the art museum who was reprimanding his subordinates, and muttered softly:

"However, with such a round heart, it should be easy to get emotional...... Mark him."

After carefully observing the heart circle of the long-bearded curator, Mu Yuan quietly changed his previous decision, and prepared to use the second Mind Mark directly on the director of the art museum.

As for the matter entrusted by Yuta Forceda, the head of the Manaka family......

That was just a matter of convenience, and Mu Yuan's real purpose was to verify whether the mind mark would have some unknown effect on him when he was alarmed.

Now that he has a better goal for experimenting, he naturally won't be reluctant to go far.

"Hello, I am the presiding officer of Erquan Temple, Mu Yuan."

Mu Yuan walked straight to Director Ochiai, and naturally stretched out his right hand.

"Ugh...... Hello......" The gray-haired curator Ochiai was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect someone to suddenly come to greet him, but after seeing Mu Yuan's well-made Burmese gardenia robe, he still smiled and stretched out his hand and shook hands with Mu Yuan, "I'm the director of the Rice Flower Art Museum, my surname is Ochiai, I'm sorry, the exhibition hasn't started yet, you ......."

"Hmm."

Mu Yuan gently shook Director Ochiai's hand, quickly left the mental mark in the other party's heart circle, and then under the stunned gaze of Director Ochiai, he decisively turned around and left, without wasting even a second.

Such a strange behavior directly made Director Ochiai stunned again, and a feeling of discomfort arose all over his body.

It's so strange, why did this host of Erquan Temple come about?

Is it because of the rumors told by the two security guards, or is it ......

"Mu Yuan presided!" Looking at Mu Yuan's back as he walked away, Director Ochiai finally couldn't help but shout, "Although the museum hasn't opened yet, if it's you, I can make an exception for you to enter the museum in advance, you see?"

The new host of Erquan Temple looked very young, but the luxurious and restrained Burmese gardenia robe, and the worry secretly born in his heart, still made Director Ochiai use honorifics to Mu Yuan.

He felt that if Mu Yuan really found something, he would definitely not let go of this opportunity to enter the museum alone to investigate.

However......

In the face of Director Ochiai's invitation, Mu Yuan's footsteps did not even stop, and in the blink of an eye, the person had disappeared from the corner of the street in front of the art museum.

"Ah, this ......."

Director Ochiai, who was still holding his hand, froze.

This young host of Erquan Temple came over early in the morning just to shake hands with him?

I'm afraid it's not a serious illness......

"The host of Ersenji Temple, you can easily buy a big man in the art museum......

Just when Director Ochiai began to doubt Muyuan's psychological state, the museum staff who was reprimanded by him on the side suddenly muttered.

"Huh?" Director Ochiai frowned, "Kuwata, what nonsense are you talking about, how can he, the head of a temple, have the money to buy an art museum?"

Most of the temple directors are not short of money, but few people can buy an art museum full of collections unless they are willing to sell the temple.

Director Ochiai didn't think that Makito would sell his temple for the sake of this art museum that was about to close down.

But Wata, who was on the side, obviously didn't think so.

"Cut ......," Kuwata pouted disdainfully.

By stealing and selling artworks in art museums, he met many upper-class people, and he had already heard of the true background of Erquan Temple.

Although the lord of the Erquan Domain is now only a nominal leader, as long as Mu Yuan really speaks, those rich and powerful feudal lords, even for the sake of face, will definitely find a way to buy the art museum.

Not to mention...... The actual owner of the art museum, the owner of Manaka, was originally a feudal member of the Niquan Domain.

[No wonder all day long these rags are regarded as treasures, Director Ochiai, this person, really doesn't understand fart! ] 】

After despising the old-fashioned Curator Ochiai in her heart again, a hint of sneer appeared on the deceitful face of the Watada girl, and she said perfunctorily, "Curator, you are right, I just said it casually, you just treat me as nonsense."

"Humph!" Director Ochiai blew his beard and glared at Kuwata, but he also had his own judgment in his heart.

[This guy Watada secretly did a lot of things, since he thought that the young host could buy ......]

"Director Ochiai, do you sell it at the museum?"

Mu Yuan, who went and returned, directly made the eyes of Director Ochiai and Kuwata widen.

A few minutes ago, as soon as Mu Yuan walked to the corner of the street, he ran into a vodka that had just parked the car and was wearing the mask of "Jiro Uozuka".

After a concise conversation, Mu Yuan quickly understood the reason for the emergence of vodka.

It turned out that the boss of Manaka decided to reneg on his previous promise and transform the museum into a hotel required by the organization because he had caught up with the dark line of the organization.

But because of the organization's business in Tokyo, it is now all in the hands of Gin, and when the boss of Manaka learns about it, he is unwilling to cooperate with such a "little person" as Gin, so he starts to make small moves in secret.

In the face of such a jumping clown, Gin, who was already entangled in everything, didn't plan to waste much time, and directly sent out vodka.

「…… That guy is very cautious, and he always follows his subordinates, and you know that it is not appropriate to be too publicistic lately, so I came over to see if there was a chance here." Vodka straightened the edges of his disguised mask, took out a ring from his arms, pointed to the tip of the needle exposed on the ring, and grinned, "This is a new thing, as long as he dares to leave alone, a needle will go down, and he will not know it, hehe."

"Is that so...... Mu Yuan nodded noncommittally and began to think about it in his heart.

If it was just a commission from Yuta Forcea, he didn't care much, after all, the feudal people of Erquan Temple were a group of ordinary people, even if it was a trouble, as long as he was given more time to collect emotional fish, he wouldn't be able to make a fuss.

But if you can take the opportunity to brush up on the favorability of gin and vodka......

"Gassan, you're on a mission to get the real boss, right?" Mu Yuan said suddenly.

Vodka didn't think much of it, and nodded directly, "Well, that's right."

"Leave this to me."

"Hmm...... Well? Over to you!? Ahaha...... Don't play ......."

Vodka instinctively laughed at Mu Yuan's indiscretion.

But before he could finish laughing, Mu Yuan pointed to the ring on his hand and said, "Gasan, this is also one of the results of the organization's research, right?"

「…… That's nature." Vodka smiled, the rich forensic knowledge in his mind kept flashing, and he vaguely remembered something.

"Boss Manaka is a well-known big man, in case his family applies for an autopsy and the organization happens to know about it......

Groov!

The smile on Vodka's face suddenly disappeared.

There are no toxins in the world that are absolutely undetectable, only toxins that have not yet been stored or have not yet been detected well.

If the organization sends someone to assist the police in the investigation, this new toxin will definitely be detected soon!

At that time, I am afraid that he will not only lose the identity of "Uozuka Jiro", but also affect Mu Yuan and Twilight Thirteen!

[Wait, Twilight Thirteen......]

Vodka blinked, and suddenly remembered that Mu Yuan didn't seem to be so useless, at least, he still had Twilight Thirteen by his side.

「…… Well, Mu Yuan, this thing for you

Are you sure?" Vodka groaned for a moment and said in an urn voice.

Mu Yuan smiled slightly, and said calmly, "Yes, and there will definitely be no future troubles."

"Well...... Vodka hesitated for a moment, then grinned happily, "Good! Then I'll leave that to Twilight!"

「?」

Mu Yuan blinked a little suspiciously.

It was not difficult for Mu Yuan to deal with an ordinary person, especially if he had a surplus spiritual imprint.

Especially for an ambitious person like Boss Manaka, it couldn't be simpler.

As long as you mark him for a day or two, I'm afraid that the number of handles collected can be so many that people feel dizzy.

The only point that can be called difficult is how to meet each other.

Fortunately, Mu Yuan thought of a way before he went out.

"Mu, Mu Yuan, are you really going to buy this art museum?"

Director Ochiai's eyes lit up, and a hint of anticipation suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Wata, who was on the side, shrank his head in surprise—this Erquan clan mainly knew about his theft and sale of art......

"Of course, can you contact the owner of the museum?" Mu Yuan swept the hearts of the two of them one by one and said calmly.

"That's fine, but ......" Director Ochiai took a deep breath, looked at Mu Yuan seriously, and said in a deep voice, "Host Mu Yuan, before that, can I take the liberty of asking, do you plan to buy the art museum?"

"What is the purpose of buying the museum...... Makito said calmly as he looked above Director Ochiai's head, "Naturally, this museum will continue to operate, after all, this is one of the few cultural facilities in Rice Flower Town, and the children love it."

"You, are you serious!?"

Hearing this, Director Ochiai's eyes widened in vain, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hands excitedly, but he quickly realized his recklessness and carefully took it back.

"Wait a minute! I'll contact Boss Manaka right now!" Director Ochiai said excitedly.

"Hmm."

Mu Yuan nodded, and quietly watched as Director Ochiai, who had begun to heal his heart, took out the phone.

It's a pity that the boss on the other end of the phone doesn't seem to have a habit of getting up early.

Or...... I was just too lazy to answer the call from Director Ochiai.

"This, this......"

Director Ochiai clutched his phone hard, and his knuckles turned a little white.

Mu Yuan thought for a moment, "Director Ochiai......

"Please, wait a little longer, I'll be able to ......," Director Ochiai immediately looked over with a pleading face.

"No, I didn't mean that," Mu Yuan shook his head and smiled, "This matter is not in a hurry, when you contact Mr. Manaka, or if he is free to come to the art museum, I will talk to him in detail alone."

"Ah, that's great!" Director Ochiai nodded in surprise, and quickly remembered the previous agreement with the boss of Manaka, and hurriedly said, "By the way, Host Muyuan, he was originally scheduled to come to the museum this afternoon, you see?"

"What time is it?"

"This ...... It should be before closing."

"Well, I'll be here early."

"Ah, that's great, no, I mean......"

"There's something else going on in the temple, so I'll go back first."

"Okay, okay, you walk slowly!"

Leaving the Rice Flower Art Museum, Mu Yuan had just put the solar skateboard on the ground when he saw an identical skateboard rushing out of the corner of the street in front of him.

"Why are you here?" Mu Yuan looked at the slightly stunned Gray Yuan Wai with a calm face, and said softly.

"I ......" Gray Yuan stopped sliding, straightened his bangs, and said coldly, "I'm just more interested in art, and I happened to hear from Sister Xiaolan."

There's walking armor here, so I thought I'd like to come and see it."

"Walking armor?" Mu Yuan blinked.

"Uh......" Gray Yuan's face turned red, as if she sensed the reason she was looking for in a hurry, it sounded a little fake, and in desperation, she could only turn to attack, "What are you here for?"

"What are we ......" Mu Yuan thought about it, and said casually according to what he had said to appease Director Ochiai, "I heard that this place is about to close down, and I'm worried that the children will never see their favorite artworks anymore, so I'll try to see if I can buy this place."

"What!? You ......" Gray Yuan's eyes widened in grief, and his cheeks began to heat up rapidly.

She didn't remember anyone around Mu Yuan who was interested in art...... Except for her!

"You, you......" Gray Yuan Wai suddenly turned his back and inexplicably "you, you, you".

Mu Yuan asked with some confusion, "Do you want to go back together?"

"Together? Good ......."

"Oh, by the way, you still need to see the walking armor, so I'll go back first."

Before Gray Yuan Ai finished speaking, Mu Yuan had already stepped on the turbo button on the skateboard, and the second half of Gray Yuan Ai's words were also annihilated in the loud humming engine sound.

Buzz——!

A gust of wind blew.

On the lonely street corner, Gray Yuan stared sadly at the empty street in the distance, a pair of cute tiger teeth flashing with a cold light.

In the afternoon, after school.

Didan Elementary School and Didan High School are only separated by a wall, and as soon as Maolilan goes out, he meets Conan, who is sneaking around alone.

"Great, Conan, Didan Elementary School will also be released early this afternoon!"

"Uh, little, Sister Xiaolan......" Conan froze, and a sadness floated in his heart, he finally had the opportunity to go out and investigate freely.

"Okay, let's go to the art museum together, shall we?" Mao Lilan, who was in a good mood, stepped forward, grabbed Conan's arm, and smiled, "Conan-kun, don't you like detective games very much? It's time to investigate the reason for the armor walk!"

"......" Conan resisted the urge to roll his eyes and sneered, "Sister Xiaolan, I think that should be a lie, how can the armor go by itself......

Bang! There was a muffled sound, and the poor Mr. Telephone Pole cracked on the spot.

"Oh roar...... Conan-kun, what did you just say?"

「…… Armor, armor! Yes! I like it the most!"

"Hehe......"
