Conan’s World Stand-in: Chapter 41 Are the curators of Rice Flowers stand-ins?

"It just so happens that we don't have anything to do right now, why don't we drop by and take a look?"

Guan Dounan thought for a moment and suggested this.

Although the version of the plot has changed, the root of the matter is still there. As long as the operation of the Mihua Art Museum is still not good, the zb family who wants to buy the art museum and convert it into a hotel is still thinking about it, director, what this refers to The old man who is the curator of the museum may commit murder.

It's not to say that the psychology of good people is bad. The director of the art museum looks more pleasing to the eye and wants to mix it up. Mainly, Guan Dounan felt that this matter could be solved in a better way. If the director of the museum could wait a few more days, it might be far more than that.

"Eh? Now? It's not impossible." Yuedong Linghua was stunned and looked at the time. They left school earlier today, and there were no club activities. The time now is only after three o'clock in the afternoon, so they have time. take a trip.

"However, I didn't see you being so decisive when I agreed with me just now..." Yuedong Linghua's feeling was just as sharp at this time.

"Ahaha, this...there are many reasons." Guan Dounan could only fool him with a haha.

…

The Rice Flower Art Museum is still the same as before. And after the closing of the World Treasures Exhibition, even the appearance looks a lot shabby.

"There's no one at all..." Yuedong Linghua whispered.

"After all, it's a weekday afternoon, and there are still few people like us." Guan Dounan looked around the museum, but he didn't see the director, and he didn't know where he was. However, the fact that there are no people in the art museum is a good thing for his ability to keep secret substitutes.

"By the way, I'll go to the toilet for a while, you can go for a walk by yourself."

Referring to Conan's common practice, Guan Dounan resorted to the most classic toilet escape, ready to go to the bathroom to activate his ability to see if the curator was directly forced to kill. If not, he still has time to go to him and persuade him not to do that.

"Eh? Okay... Go and come back quickly, it's still a bit scary for me to be alone here." Yuedong Linghua didn't seem to know the true meaning of toilet escape, so she nodded and watched Guan Dounan leave .

After finding a corner, Guan Dounan directly called out the stand-in Xiao Hei and activated his ability, aiming at [the current position of the Ochiai Director of the Rice Flower Art Museum].

Xiao Hei appeared and brought him several pictures.

[In a dark room, a huge oil painting of a knight slaying a demon hangs on the wall. 】

[Curator Ochiai is holding an old metal knight helmet in both hands, his eyes are complicated, next to him, there is a scattered set of knight armor and a large sword that looks genuine. 】

"No way, does it really have to be so extreme..."

Guan Dounan blinked, and scratched his hair with some headaches. As expected, things began to develop in the worst direction. Fortunately, there was no blood on the armor, and no one was stuck on the oil painting. I don't know if I should stop it now. Not in time.

The curator will choose to take out this set of armor that should be used for exhibition during the day, indicating that he no longer cares about exposure or something, and perhaps the day to do it is today.

However, those armors and that big sword add up to dozens of pounds, right? Looking at the curator's body is not very strong, can you really wear this kind of armor to kill? Shouldn't he also be a substitute messenger?

Are all the curators of Rice Flowers monsters? The concentration of stand-in messengers has been greatly improved.

Shake your head to get rid of those messy thoughts, and in any case, go to the curator and convince him not to do stupid things first. Guan Dounan called out Xiao Hei, adding a layer of illusion to himself, disguised as himself before the time-travel, turned from the corner, and walked to the room that Xiao Hei saw in his ability.

On the way, he passed by Yuedong Linghua, who just turned his head and glanced at him, and didn't continue to stare at him, as if he regarded him as an ordinary tourist who was also in a hurry.

Outside the room where the painting of "God's Punishment" in which a knight slays a demon was placed, a sign "Cleaning" was placed outside, which seemed to be deliberately deceitful. If Guan Dounan didn't get the news by accident today, and used his stand-in ability to determine the position of the curator, with the current depression of the Mihua Art Museum, maybe no one would really know what happened.

After just walking a few steps, Guan Dounan saw a set of medieval knight armor with his back facing him, standing in front of the picture of "God Punishment", as if he was admiring the painting in silence.

The knight in the painting and the armor outside the painting, both exist at the same time, making it almost unclear what is real and what is illusory. But there is only one point that clearly marks the difference between the two.

The armor outside the painting has no helmet and no head. The position from the shoulder armor up is blank, or should be said, it is pitch black.

Just like the legendary headless knight, but he didn't hold his head in his hands, and he didn't know where the real head was.

"You shouldn't be here." The voice seemed to come from inside the armor, it turned around and "looked" at Guan Dounan.

"Behind the armor, or what's inside the armor, is Curator Ochiai, right?" Guan Dounan calmed down for a while because he was rushing fast.

"Who are you?" Seeing that Guan Dounan didn't have a panic reaction, he even pointed out his identity. The armor, or the curator Ochiai who controlled the armor raised the big sword in his hand and pointed at Guan Dounan. If he answered correctly If you are not satisfied, it means beheading on the spot.

"We only met not long ago." Guan Dounan reached out and wiped his face, revealing that face that he almost never forgets after seeing it, and that he has to look back more often when he walks down the street, and at the same time he called out his stand-in. "How's it going? Although it's a bit arrogant to say this, this face should be very impressive."

"It's you? How could you..."

"What you said to Mr. Curator before, I have already done what you want to help." Guan Dounan smiled slightly, although the Suzuki Consortium has not replied yet, but he has decided to find an opportunity to do more Work hard, even if you betray your color, you can talk about it, "So, Mr. Curator, you shouldn't have to turn yourself into a knight with blood on your hands like the knight in the painting."

"..." The armor did not speak, but slowly put down the sword.

"wait a second."

The armor said these words, and suddenly it began to disintegrate from the same place. The parts on the body fell to the ground one by one, but there was not much noise, as if the armor was taken off by an invisible person and slowly placed on the ground. .

The last part fell, and a person walked out of the small door next to the room. It was Curator Ochiai, who was holding a knight's helmet in his hand, and his eyebrows, hair and beard were already gray.

"I should have thought for a long time that there are other people with this magical power. I just didn't think that this person is you." Curator Ochiai looked at the helmet in his hand and said with some emotion, "However, it is precisely I only acquired this ability after the day you came. Maybe, this is fate..."

"I call this ability the 'Headless Horseman'. As long as I wear the helmet inside a suit of armor, I can control other parts of my own will, just like my own body..."
