How to become a mermaid

Chapter 358 Venus Art Museum
Except for that group of French nobles, Pochi didn't meet any strange-looking people.

He followed Moni and the others out of the airport and headed straight for the Venus Art Museum.

They booked tickets for the art exhibition with Messenger Bird before, and the ticket collection location is here.

And this is not just a place to collect tickets. According to the letter written by Shaman Lair before, the location of the missing crew members seems to be in the underground of this art gallery.

In other words, they will soon be close to the goal of their trip!
The airport is actually not far from the location of the Art Museum, it takes about half an hour to walk.

Under the enthusiastic guidance of the local residents Luke led the way, the group of them arrived at the destination soon.

【Venus Art Museum】

Looking at the classical-style building in front of him with two giant plaster statues at the door, Moni stopped in his tracks.

There seemed to be quite a lot of people who wanted to participate in this art exhibition, and the ticket collection line had already reached the entrance, and there were roughly two to three hundred people in the dark space.

Money didn't want to do such a waste of time in queuing, so he simply ordered his subordinates to do it.

"Hawk, go and get our tickets. If other people are bored, they can go around first. Remember not to leave orders, and don't do strange things to cause disputes with local residents."

"Two hours later, all come back here to gather!"

Moni is ordering his crew to investigate the details of this art gallery, and survey the surrounding terrain by the way.

Although he didn't say it clearly due to the crowds around him, these crew members are all old buddies of Moni, and they immediately understood what he meant.

"Understood!" The crew members nodded one after another, and it didn't take long for them to gather in groups of threes and twos, and scattered in all directions to inquire about the news.

Moni and his group talked a lot, and they talked a lot. They were quite eye-catching. The people around had noticed them a long time ago, but because of their large number, no one dared to talk to them.

Seeing that the crowd had almost dispersed, only Pochi and Moni were left, and someone came to strike up a conversation with them immediately.

"Two handsome gentlemen, where are you from?" A middle-aged woman who looked quite plump approached Moni and asked with a smile.

She looks like a local resident. The clothes she wears and the purse she carries are all in the style of the Mayan Empire. Although the accent is very light, it can still be heard from certain words. It's a local accent.

Looking at the middle-aged woman whose eyes had been lingering on his chest and crotch, Moni could tell at once that she was approaching him with ill intentions.

She is greedy for her handsome body!

The customs of the Mayan Empire are particularly open. The system of polygamy has always been practiced. A man can marry several wives, and a woman can also have several husbands. As long as all members of the family agree, they can form an unlimited happy family. .

Every time Moni came to Maya, he would meet many women who came forward to strike up a conversation, and he was used to this kind of thing.

In this case, as long as you keep silent, the person on the opposite side will stop pestering you.

So he didn't reply, just glanced at the middle-aged woman lightly.

However, just because he didn't speak, it didn't mean that Boqi beside him didn't speak.

As soon as he saw someone chatting with him, Boqi immediately became excited, and replied cheerfully: "We came from the sea!"

Hearing Pochi's words, the fat woman also became interested, and asked, "Are you crew members? What kind of ship? Fishing boat or merchant ship?"

"A merchant ship! It's a very, very big merchant ship!" Pochi said excitedly, gesturing with his hands.

After finishing speaking, he looked at the fat woman in front of him with shining eyes, and asked, "What about you? What do you do?"

Seeing that Boqi seemed to be interested in her, the fat woman brushed her hair around her ears, and said in a reserved manner: "I run a newspaper office in the city, and there are several big banks, and a few big pharmacies. Let’s be considered a somewhat well-known female entrepreneur!”

"Wow! I like newspapers!" Pochi sighed and asked excitedly, "So are you here for an interview?"

"No..." The fat woman shook her head and said shyly, "I'm here to meet my first husband and my second husband!"

"One of them is the curator of this art gallery, and the other is the bishop of the Nirvana Church in the main city. Now the two of them are discussing the art exhibition in the art gallery!"

When the fat woman mentioned Nirvana Church, Mo Ni's eyelids moved a little, and he became a little interested in the woman in front of him.

The Nirvana Church is the state religion of the Mayan Empire, and it believes in a strange one-eyed bird.

And this one-eyed bird is also inextricably linked to that damned Holy Fire Sect!
If he guessed correctly, the Nirvana Church is probably a cover fabricated by the Mayan Empire, and it is the "Sacred Fire Sect" on the surface!
Thinking of this, Mo Ni narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to the fat woman: "Speaking of which, I am also a little interested in Nirvana Church, I wonder if you have time later, madam, can you take me to the church of Nirvana Church to see one look?"

The Nirvana Church does not allow foreigners to enter unless they are brought by locals.

Money wants to go in and investigate, so he can only use this fat woman as a guide.

The words he said sounded like a date invitation. If they were placed in other countries, they would be blatantly seducing married women, and they would be cast aside.

But this is the Mayan Empire, and there is no such thing as a third party intervening. As long as you look right, you can insert as many feet as you want.

The fat woman approached Moni with the idea of ​​dating this handsome young man.

When he heard that he took the initiative to invite himself, he was even more delighted, a joyful smile appeared on his slightly rich face, and he said: "Of course I have time, just this evening, let's go to have dinner together first, How about going to visit the church then?"

"Yes." Mo Ni also nodded with a smile, agreeing to her invitation.

With Moni's consent, the fat woman had an unexpected smile on her face.

She knew that as long as she showed off her financial resources, she wouldn't have to worry about not getting a date with the handsome guy!

However, she was not satisfied with only Moni, and the fat woman turned her gaze to Pochi, and said in a seductive voice: "What about you, this handsome little gentleman? Do you want to have dinner with us?" ?”

"Of course I'm going! I'll go wherever Moni goes!" Pochi replied innocently before he knew that he was being targeted by the rich woman.

"Hohohoho~" Hearing Pochi's words, the fat woman covered her mouth with her hand and let out a "lady's chuckle".

She turned a few times between Moni and Pochi with fiery eyes, and said excitedly: "It seems that the relationship between you is very good?"

"Of course! Moni is my closest person! We are always inseparable!" Pochi smiled defenselessly, not feeling anything wrong with the current situation at all.

"Hohohoho~ This is exactly what I want! I just like more people, so that the fun will be more lively!"

"Hey~ Me too!"

"Little Mister, I didn't expect you to have fun~"

"Flowers? I like flowers!"

Hearing the cross-server conversation between Pochi and the fat woman, the corners of Moni's mouth twitched, suddenly regretting his previous decision.

...............

Towards evening, Mooney got tickets for the art show and distributed them to his crew.

At the same time, he also received clues about the Venus Art Museum reported by the crew.

The Venus Art Museum was built 230 years ago and was funded by many nobles of the Mayan Empire. It is said that even the royal family of the Mayan Empire at that time also contributed.

With so many prominent sponsors, the development of this art gallery is naturally smooth. It took less than 20 years to become the most famous and largest art gallery in the Mayan Empire, attracting many national and Well-known foreign artists cooperate with them.

In addition to art, the Venus Art Museum has also achieved a lot in charity, funding no less than [-] orphanages, as well as dozens of nursing homes and homeless shelters.

Such kindness naturally brought a good reputation. Now if you ask anyone from the Mayan Empire, you can hear words of praise for the Venus Art Museum from their mouths.

Kind, generous, noble, elegant, admirable...

"Disgusting hypocrisy!" After hearing the report from his subordinates, Money couldn't help swearing.

He dared to swear to God that the more charitable organizations and personnel are, the more tricky they are behind their backs.

There is less than one percent of the truly kind and rich people in this world, and the remaining 90.00 percent are using charity as a fig leaf, trying to cover up the ulterior secrets behind themselves.

Please note that this is about rich people. Many people without money are kinder than rich people, so they will never make a lot of money in their lifetime.

"There is no other useful information? Did you only find out so much?" Money asked sharply, dissatisfied with the news from his subordinates.

Hearing his words, a young man with freckles raised his hand and said with some uncertainty: "I seem to have something else here, but I can't guarantee the truth..."

"Tell me! Don't miss any clues!" Mo Ni turned his head and looked at the freckled youth with a serious expression.

"Good captain!" The freckled youth nodded quickly, and told Moni about his experience just now.

"After you gave the order to investigate separately, Captain, I formed a group with Kate and investigated around the art gallery. However, not long after, I suddenly felt a stomachache and wanted to go to the bathroom, so I separated from Kate and went alone. Find a place to fix it."

"Walking along, I came to an orphanage not far from here. I couldn't hold it anymore, so I knocked on the door and asked them to go to the toilet. They didn't refuse and let me in."

"In the toilet of the orphanage, I overheard the conversation among the children and learned a secret..."

"The orphanage seems to be funded by the Venus Art Museum, and children are often invited to visit the art gallery, or some children are invited to spend the night in the art gallery on the grounds of being models."

"Among them, a kid named Nathan was also invited to be a model, but he didn't come back for many days."

"This incident caught the attention of the other children, and they reported it to the dean, and Nathan, who was missing, returned not long after."

"Although he is back, he seems to be a little different from before."

"His appearance looks the same as before, but his behavior reveals weirdness. For example, he often stays alone in the corner and whispers some incomprehensible words to himself, and he will be silent every night when everyone is quiet. Go out over the wall secretly by yourself, and come back when it is almost dawn..."

"He was controlled by a cult?" Hearing these words, Moni couldn't help asking.

This situation is in line with his conjecture.

The Sacred Fire Sect has been a shady underground organization for so many years, but there are more and more members inside. It is likely that the orphanages funded by them are used to expand the members, turning the children inside into heartfelt puppets one by one.

"I guess it's also under control..." The freckled youth also agreed with Moni's thoughts, and continued: "Nathan's abnormality attracted the attention of several children, so they followed Nathan out once when he was out."

"Then they discovered that Nathan had come to the Venus Art Museum, and got into a certain flower bush on the west side of the art gallery, and didn't come out for a long time."

"Because this incident was a bit weird, although the children were puzzled, they did not continue to follow up. Instead, they observed in the dark for a while before returning to the orphanage."

"A certain flower bush on the west side?" Mo Ni was keenly aware of the clues in the freckled youth's words, and asked with a serious expression, "Did you hear which flower bush it is?"

This flower bush is likely to be the secret passage leading directly to the underground of the art gallery. If they can determine the location, they can send someone to go underground to investigate.

Hearing Moni ask himself the exact location of the flowers, the freckled youth scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "They didn't say that clearly..."

This answer disappointed Moni, but he didn't blame the freckled youth, instead he praised him: "Okay, then we can only spend some time looking for it, you did a good job this time, this month's Triple your salary!"

Hearing Moni's words, the young man with freckles was overjoyed, and quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Captain!"

Moni waved his hand indifferently, and said to other people around: "I'm going to go to an appointment with Boqi later, you go to find a hotel around and stay in a hotel, and after we come back, we can discuss the next step." plan of!"

"Of order, Captain!" Everyone said in unison.

After giving instructions to the crew, Monet changed himself and Pochi into decent and handsome clothes, and set off before setting off.

The main purpose of their visit to the Mayan Empire this time is undoubtedly to rescue the crew members who were taken away.

So without knowing anything about the internal situation of the Mayan Empire, this "date" tonight is very important to Moni.

He needs to establish a good relationship with that fat woman and get more information from her.
