"The folding page in your hand is 12 folds and 24 sides when it is fully unfolded. It includes all 240 works of this Impressionism Art Exhibition, arranged by artist, with their avatars and simplified brief introductions."

"Of course, due to space limitations, the printed paintings are small in size and can only be used for feature identification. The purpose is naturally not for appreciation of details, but a commemorative acquisition of 'holding all the exhibited works in your hand' Feeling. Although its printing cost is not low, guests do not need to pay extra to get it, and they can get a copy with 10 shillings for museum tickets or any concert tickets.”

Fan Ning next to him continued talking, and He Meng stood in front of the wooden cabinet against the wall, flipping through a beautiful hard folded leaf.

Salman walked around the room a few times.

Fanning didn't look at Salman, he explained to the rows of folding shelves, and naturally passed through them to look at the wall ahead.

For the last isolation ceremony, I and Joan adopted a different construction method, and invited the invisible power of the "caster" instead of the "key" Sagamiko, the branch's "blessing curtain" sacrificial vessel, It is also currently being assisted at the altar.

Although this kind of effect is not as good as the "hidden lamp" secret ritual that Vincent set up in the past, which lasted for more than [-] years, the two of them only completed the sealing wall three days before the opening. When the actual effect is the strongest, do not destroy the wall violently Body, it should be difficult to detect the abnormality.

As for how to deal with the opening of these exhibition halls, Fan Ning's first subconscious thought was to seal them up or use them as warehouses, but after careful consideration, he decided to use them as souvenir sales rooms.

He didn't know which areas the Special Patrol Office thought were more worthwhile, and it was assumed that this corridor was one of the places where a lot of sundries had been piled up, so opening up was a less suspicious option than sealing it up.

As long as the wall is intact and there is no peculiar smell, it is the same for the public.Compared with the free viewing area, the sales room has a certain order, and it will be more timely to deal with the occasional extreme situations of passers-by.

He Meng moved another step, from facing the wall where the secret door is located, to directly facing it.

He picked up the objects on display on the shelves, and if he had thrust his arm a little further, he would have touched the embossed wallpaper with vine patterns.

"Exquisite picture book for careful review of details." Fanning continued, "This thing is a bit heavy, because the artistic pattern silk thread embroidered on the shell is solid gold and silver materials, but it is worth it, even if you don't open it , it is also a decorative piece that can show the taste at home, it needs to pay 10 pounds to buy, it is included in your gift bag, and I have arranged for the staff to put it in the car when several people come.”

Anna took out her small notebook and seemed to be flipping through something.

He Meng also opened the title page of the album.

"There are some personal opinions on the layout of the content." Fan Ning explained with a smile while holding a purple enamel cane, "Because the thickness of the album needs to be controlled, the printing size of each artist's work can be a full page, 1/2 page, 1/4 There are three types in [-] pages, as for the larger size, it is a personal preference. Of course, the works of my father Vincent take up a little more space.”

He Meng's pale and thick fingers slid across the list of names on the directory, and Salman, who had finished looking around, also leaned over, as if searching for something to confirm. …

A long time ago, all the paintings of the Turner Art Museum - including those on the wall and those not on the wall - were collected in detail at the branch of the Sert Patrolling Hall in Uvfland, and the ledger included their names, sizes , materials, creation time and content summary, some of which still have normal or abnormal photos with unclear quality.

And according to the latest information provided by his subordinate Vashius at the Headquarters United Dream Conference.
If the special pigments or techniques used in the painting process can achieve a mystical connection with the "Gate of Seven Lights", then after going through a certain process, it will be sublimated into a layer of will that moves matter into the world.

The leader, Mr. Poglerich, recognized the reliability of Vassius' conclusion, and speculated from the principle of the "grid" of artists or works of art that the most common form of "going through a certain process" is to let the painting be painted enough People observe, appreciate, and remember.

So push back the information to the information collected before. Vincent once had mystic tendencies, but no more abnormal paintings were found, so it is worth re-examining.

He Meng turned to the catalog page where Vincent's works were located, and prepared to make a "reverse confirmation".

It is easier for a person to be a painter than to commission a creation. If Vincent has done some research on "The Gate of Seven Lights" and "The Fountain in the Painting", it is very likely that he has tried to create works that meet such mystical requirements.

So after more than ten seconds, He Meng's eyes had already glanced at the catalog of 40 Vincent's exhibited paintings.

Sure enough, the titles of those works that I care about did not appear in this beauty exhibition.

Although not all works are as lively as "The Room of Pain" contained in the Pleasure Listening Club, which can infect dreams with a glance, such works are definitely not suitable for hanging in public places and being appreciated by a large number of art lovers for a long time of.

"They are right in front of us, why don't we go directly to appreciate the original work?" Fan Ning asked with a smile.

""Twilight and the Wall on the Top of the Mountain", "The Perspective of a Snake and a Scorpion", "The Abyss Seen under a Certain Emotion"..." Anna said nine names in a gentle voice, "These works by Mr. Vincent, Fanning The president should be quite familiar with it."

…[-] out of [-] accuracy?The people in the Special Inspection Office are really good at investigating strange things.

The five paintings that Benjamin stole that day, intended to make the key to the "Gate of Seven Lights", were all included.

Fan Ning thought for a while, and made a slightly surprised expression: "This is a highly inspired creation that I discovered when I sorted out the works left by my father. I didn't expect you to share his artistic concept."

"So why aren't they among the 40?" Salman asked.

"Because they reflect the heterogeneous colors under the surface of the more vivid world, I find it difficult to grasp the degree of acceptance of them by the ignorant, so it is safe to say that they are not selected for this Impressionist art exhibition." Fan Ning replied calmly.

"So they are still in this art gallery now, would you mind letting us have a look at them in private?" He Meng's face was pale and his muscles were stiff, which made his smile always dark, "Of course, this It would take up valuable prep time before Fanning conducts the ten-minute show."

He deliberately emphasized the word "appreciation", and then observed Fanning's expression. …

"Now?" Fan Ning looked calm with a trace of puzzlement, "It's not an excessive request for a distinguished guest."

Immediately, Fan Ning made a "please" gesture and strode ahead to lead the way.

"Marquis McAdam is visiting his daughter in the background, Bishop Christopher is looking at the painting, and Sir Viadrin is practicing the piano, but there is no need for any of them to interact, and Homon and Gon are the two people who take care of the disaster." The spiritual state after the catastrophe, I am afraid that it is not yet possible to use extraordinary powers, He Meng did not come here for action, and the current extraordinary situation of the empire has not reached the stage of violent conflict..."

"It's normal for them to care about the key clues of the 'Gate of Seven Lights'. I brought the half-truths and half-false rhythms in the Dream Conference of the Special Patrol Hall... But why did Anna come today? She has been asking Vassius Very understanding of the progress of the work, and also on the phone with 'me'..."

Fanning, who was walking, pondered their purpose, and then asked suddenly as if remembering something, "Mr. Vassius didn't come today?"

He turned his head to the side and found that Anna, the liaison officer, was giving the two officers a questioning look.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for more than two months after encountering the mysterious incident on the train. I even left him a ticket for the Summer Art Festival, but after the performance, I couldn't talk to him again." Fan Ning turned back again and continued to chat casually.

What he said is actually very interesting.

It is not clear whether the free ticket happened before or after the mysterious event;

Not sure if Vassius didn't come to the show, or if he didn't notice, or if he noticed but didn't say hello.

Because no one bothered to ask him anything, he could word it however he wanted.

Fan Ning's purpose is to see if the Special Inspection Office will ask him about a certain detail, so that he may be able to find out from some clues what kind of perspective Vassius is in the eyes of the Special Inspection Office.

"Didn't you come out together?" Salman asked, staring at him.

"My companion and I first." Fanning said, "Frankly speaking, I didn't understand the mechanism of the 'Boethius Artist' in the discussion group and the hidden knowledge of the master at that time. 'Miss Nessimi and I cooperated to complete the task..." Fanning shook his head and smiled, looking down among the keychains, "Of course he fulfilled his promise immediately and helped us find the space-time node to escape..."

He Meng nodded indifferently: "He went on vacation after he came out."

That train basically arrived at Fort Santa Ramos on time. Judging from the phone calls from Vassius, he got out of trouble in the early morning and landed directly on the outskirts of the city... and with Vassius' withdrawn personality and Fanning's artist temper , obviously the two sides had some unpleasant atmosphere in that mysterious incident.

Fanning let out an "oh".

This group of people is really calm, Vassius has been out of contact for more than two months, and he is not in a hurry to learn more details about getting along with me?Or did they not think the problem was my contact with him in 'Vatsnay'?
At this time, the four of them came to the living and working area on the second floor. …

"The location here is evenly spaced from both the concert hall and the art gallery." Fan Ning unlocked and turned the doorknob while speaking, pointing directly at a row of paintings on the wall, "Twilight and Wall on the Top of the Mountain", "River of Silver Mirror", "Moon Night" The three paintings of "Flying Thoughts" have been hung in this office before my father left, and it has been repaired and cleaned later, but the layout has basically remained the same."

Seeing Fan Ning's actions were casual, calm and without any hesitation, He Meng began to doubt his own judgment.

Is it because he doesn't know the characteristics of "painting sublimation"? …

He Meng frowned and looked in the direction indicated by Fan Ning, and signaled the other two to pay attention to possible changes and take measures at any time.

The extremely beautiful use of color and the vivid imagination are enough to make the inspiration soar.

Mysterious paintings.

But that seems to be the case, and it is far from the existence of evil names related to "Gate of Seven Lights" or "Fountain in the Painting".

"In addition, Miss Anna mentioned five or six. I may have to look for them. They are not on the wall, and their storage locations are scattered. Please help me show the door..." Fan Ning walked out of the room immediately, not minding the other three. People stay inside for a while.

In the next five minutes, he let the staff find the remaining six paintings in three storage rooms.

"If you feel that you haven't crossed the line after checking, you can consider letting them meet the public next time." After returning to Vincent's room, Fan Ning sat down on the soft sofa and looked at the three people holding canvases in front of them. Look carefully.

Anna has been observing Fanning carefully.

With a strong empathy ability, she gradually felt a trace of Fanning's impatience. Although the content of his speech was still polite, it could be observed from the details of his movements and the tone of his voice.

The name of my party is to congratulate and join us, but in fact, the purpose is slightly stronger, and it is the eve of the performance.

"Chairman Fanning has the right to privately hold ritual objects, let alone mystical works of art. We are just eliminating the stigma related to evil gods. Forgive me." Salman responded in a more polite tone.

Here it is also known that He Meng, the inspector general of the second level, has a slightly higher status than Fan Ning, and Salman is not as good. He is also a "Boethius" nominated artist at the "Forged Lion" level.

As long as Fan Ning chooses between being promoted to the "first stage of profound understanding" or promoted to "new moon", his extraordinary status and public status will counter pressure He Meng.

If Fan Ning loses his temper today, the few people present will not be able to do anything to him, unless it is confirmed that he is polluted by evil gods, or has a collection of contraband beyond the red line, for example, it is directly related to the wreckage of the source god or the abnormal area things.

Even a leader would seriously consider the impact on the Extraordinary world and the public society when dealing with a "Forging Lion", while the "New Moon" was more cautious, and would not be extreme if he could reduce a big event to a small one.

"Whether the relationship between investigators and artists can be understood and handled well is an important issue related to the success or failure of our career." ——The original intention of an important speech by the leader.

When leaving the living area, Fanning went downstairs with the three of them, and he hastily signaled to the staff to return the paintings by themselves. …

"Excuse me for the rehearsal."

After trying to maintain a polite farewell, everyone parted ways after walking a few corridors.

"The sense of strangeness that should be expected, and the strange sense of familiarity." After Fan Ning's back was already very small in his field of vision, He Meng said gloomily.

"What do you mean?" Anna asked subconsciously and respectfully, but she immediately realized that Inspector He Meng was talking about the induction of life characteristics in physical contact. This kind of intuition is not the same as spirituality, and belongs to the depth of "cocoon". Only those who know.

"That's your usual way of saying hello, maybe we met before?"

He Meng held his cane tightly and stared silently ahead.

Salman stood with his hands behind his back: "In the past, Benjamin, Vassius and I all thought that he was using the name of preparing for business to create a reasonable motivation for himself to enter and exit the Turner Art Museum, but I didn't expect that he was really doing business, not only Restarting the museum, but also making such a large-scale expansion, also achieved the achievement of the 'Boethius' nominated artist."

"Perhaps we overthink the role of the 'Law of Entangled Secret History' too much, the Abnormal Zone and the Fragments of the Sound Series are one thing, but the 'Gate of Seven Lights' and the 'Fountain in the Painting' are another, Vaxiu Si has been monitoring his research on the audio sequence fragments, and his judgment is still very accurate. He has noticed some strange things related to Vincent, but it is impossible to involve all the secrets."

He Meng suddenly seemed to have a sense, and stepped forward a few steps.

He pushed open a window in the corridor.

The cold wind of late autumn mixed with soot hits the face, and the streetscape is leaden gray outside.

And in the volley about half a meter away from the window, there seems to be a spiritual door that does not exist.

He Meng's outstretched cane disrupted the mottled lines, they briefly formed certain characters, and collapsed in the next moment.

"Your Excellency He Meng, is it the news from the pollution investigation team sent by the headquarters?" Salman suddenly had a bad feeling.

"The "Room of Pain" in your sealed room is missing."

The eyes of the two were smothered.

Is Vassius' loss of contact really related to his last entry?
But according to the normal situation, Vassius should not have descended to the bottom floor that time?

"Investigate other changes in the sealing room, and investigate the contact chain of all exposed people in the past six months." He Meng closed the window and turned around.
