Chapter 300 Transfer of Exhibits(1/2)

At night.

Chen Lun appeared in front of the Simon Museum.

Two gray square stone pillars stand in front of the door, one on the left and one on the right, but there is no gargoyle statue decoration on the top, and the overall appearance is not like in the dream.

He stepped up the steps and walked straight into the door.

As soon as you enter, you will see the ticket window on your right.

Chen Lun spent five silver coins to buy the ticket, and the tall security guard on the side reminded him in a low voice that the museum was only open until ten o'clock in the evening, so he had to make time to visit.

Chen Lun held on to his hat and thanked the security guard, then walked straight in.

He did not carry a silver cane tonight, and his appearance was transformed using [Extreme Beauty], turning him into an ordinary-looking young man.

The interior decoration of the museum is very simple, but in the simplicity, it also has a high-end charm. The overall color is black, white and gold. There is a faint floral fragrance in the air, and Chen Lun can tell that this should be

A certain kind of precious fragrance spreads throughout the venue through water vapor.

It was almost eight o'clock in the evening, and there were not many visitors, but it was not deserted either. The admission fee of five silver coins was destined to keep most of the lower class people out of the door, and most of the guests here were some.

Middle class, or upper class gentleman.

In twos and threes, they stopped in front of antiques and famous paintings, appreciating, chatting and laughing in a low voice.

Chen Lun was very low-key and hid in the crowd, seemingly appreciating the exhibits seriously, but in fact, he was secretly observing his surroundings.

He discovered an interesting phenomenon.

That is, there are actually more than a dozen extraordinary beings hidden among these guests. They have put on some disguises and mainly wandered between the three exhibits, seemingly guarding them at all times.

'They are all extraordinary people from the Earth Faction. Judging from the temperament of these people, most of them are consistent with the predictions of the dream. They are people from the History and Ritual Association.'

Chen Lun speculated silently.

Immediately, he set his sights on the three exhibits, which were a stone fragment of unknown material, a yellowed parchment manuscript, and an ancient book.

The stone fragments are triangular in shape and look like the corner of a tombstone.

Parchment manuscripts are like essays or letters.

The ancient book is "Carmen's Notes" that Chen Lun is looking for, but he doesn't know whether it is the second or third volume.

'Since people from the History and Ceremony Association are interested in them, it must not be something simple...but judging from the current situation, it is not convenient to do it.'

Chen Lun thought to himself.

Although these extraordinary beings were only low-sequence ones, he could sense that there were masters secretly there, probably strong men from the branch of the History and Ceremony Association.

Chen Lun was confident of escaping unscathed, but he couldn't take the things away quietly. Once the robbery happened, he would be discovered. He could only leave by teleporting, but that would easily expose him.

Chen Lun didn't want to make too big a fuss, and since the people here were ordinary people, it was easy to cause unwarranted casualties, so he wasn't that crazy yet.

'There is always a way, let's find another way out.'

Chen Lun thought to himself.

If possible, he would prefer to obtain those things through conventional means.

The next day.

Chen Lun found Huo Yin'er, the owner of the City Garden Theater.

He planned to obtain some information from this candidate heir to the Simon family.

Huo Yin'er seemed very happy to see Chen Lun's arrival. He invited Chen Lun to the office with enough respect and personally made him a cup of black tea.

"Mr. Jack, why did you come to the theater today? The performance of 'Jack's Circus' is scheduled for prime time on the weekend."

Huo Yin'er smiled.

During these days, he was quite happy.

Although Kewei, the dwarf troupe and the beast-taming sisters were sent to a mental hospital, with the reputation of Mr. Jack's wonderful performance last time, the City Garden Theater quickly attracted the attention of several first-class performance groups and successfully invited them

Settled in.

Now there are good performances on the stage from Monday to Friday, and weekends are basically Jack's Circus time. Noah and Golov take turns taking charge of the performances. After all, they are all extraordinary people. They can use any extraordinary means to achieve anything.

Achieve eye-catching program effects.

"Well, Mr. Huo Yin'er, I came to see you today just to have a casual chat."

Chen Lun took a sip of tea and said softly.

"So that's it. I just don't have anything important at hand. What would Mr. Jack want to talk about?"

As Huo Yin'er spoke, he enthusiastically took out his collection of cigars, but was declined by Chen Lun. He shook his head with some regret and lit one for himself.

In fact, Huo Yin'er was not idle, but after hearing Mr. Jack's intention, he chose to put the work at hand aside. After all, there was nothing more important than this gentleman.

Chen Lun chuckled lightly and asked Huo Yin'er about the Simon Museum.

Huo Yin'er looked surprised and didn't know why Mr. Jack was suddenly interested in the museum, but he still told everything he knew.

He said that the Simon Museum is not like other businesses in the family that are assigned to his brothers and sisters for management, but is personally managed by his father, Don Marn Simon.

This comes from Huo Yin'er's father, who has always been very keen on collecting antiques, famous paintings and other old objects, and the museum is his hard work.

"But when I went home recently, I discovered something strange..."

Huo Yin'er suddenly remembered something and said this.

"Recently, my father has frequently given away his collection to some friends. Even Omto College and other universities have received donations from his father... Those are antiques that he used to love very much, but he doesn't know why he suddenly doesn't want them anymore.

Already."

He shook his head as he spoke, puffing out smoke.

Chen Lun listened silently. Based on this incident, he thought of the foreshadowing of the dream and the extraordinary people of the History and Ritual Association he saw when he went to the Simon Museum last night.

‘Maybe it’s because of them? Those three exhibits were favored by the History and Ceremony Association, so they put a lot of pressure on Huo Yin’er’s father...?’

Chen Lun guessed.

Huo Yin'er took a puff of his cigar and continued:

"Yesterday, my father also said that in a few days, most of the museum's collections will be packed up and sent to friends in other places in several batches... I really don't understand why he did this. Those things are all from his dozen or so things.

Over the past twenty years, I have worked hard to collect it, spending countless energy and gold pounds."

His expression looked extremely puzzled, but helpless.

Chen Lun put down his tea cup, looked at Huo Yin'er and said:

"Mr. Huo Yin'er, I have something to ask you."

"Um?"

Huo Yin'er smiled.

"Mr. Jack, please tell me, if I can do it, I will definitely help you!"

"Well, I'm actually very interested in an exhibit in the Simon Museum. If possible, I hope you can help me get it from your father... Don't worry, I will pay enough gold pounds as the cost of the purchase.

."

Chen Lun said.

After hearing this, Huo Yin'er waved his hands repeatedly.

"Of course that's no problem, Mr. Jack. If it's just an exhibit, I should be able to get it... My father wouldn't feel bad if he gave it away in such a large quantity. If I take one of them out, I believe it won't be rejected."

"In that case, I'll leave it to you, Mr. Huo Yin'er."

Chen Lun smiled.

The morning after three days.

While Chen Lun was having a meal, Gorov strode from outside and stopped beside him.

"Leader, there is something going on in the Simon Museum."

Chen Lun swallowed the food in his mouth and turned to look at Golov with an interested look on his face.

"Well, let's talk about it."

After he came back last time, he asked the three Golovs to keep an eye on the activities of the Simon Museum, and now the news finally came.

Golov took off his hat and said:

"The Simon Museum was closed yesterday. Early this morning, four large carriages appeared at the door. The staff moved a lot of wooden boxes from the museum and put them on the carriages. It seemed that they were preparing to move the exhibits."
