Chapter 3375 Anonymous Commission to the Phantom Thief
【Ok.——Raki】
Chi Feichi gave Rum a simple reply. When he saw the elevator arriving at the 87th floor, he put away his cell phone and walked out of the elevator with Koshizu Nanatsuki.
Rum did not directly tell him the man's code name or the mission he was performing, which meant that the other party's actions had nothing to do with him.
If he wants to know that man's information, he can directly ask that person in the future. Since that man is a member of the organization and is performing the organization's tasks, that person should know the other person's situation.
However, he only had to confirm that the man's encounter with him was a coincidence, that there was no ill intention in staring at him, and that he was not specifically looking at him. That was enough.
As for whether that man would think of him as a member of the organization through his encounter with Rum in Hyde Park seven years ago...
Let that person and Rum take care of this matter.
…
When Chi Feichi and Nanatsuki Koshimizu took the elevator upstairs, the people in the duty room received the message and opened the door for them in advance.
Chi Feichi and Koshizui Nanatsuki walked into the house and saw Kuroba Kaito and Terai Kinosuke sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Koshizui Nanatsuki said hello in surprise, "Kaito, Grandpa Terai, didn't you go out tonight?"
"Yes, grandpa and I plan to rest at home tonight..." Kuroba Kaito smiled at Koshimi Nanatsuki, stood up, looked at Chi Feichi, his expression became more serious, "By the way, Feichi
Brother, do you have time now? Grandpa and I have something to discuss with you!"
Chi Feichi nodded, "Let Bonnar take you to the living room in the guest room area to wait for me. I will go find you after changing my clothes."
Kuroba Kaito's face relaxed a little, and he smiled at Koshimi Nanatsuki, "If you're not tired, Nanatsuki-san, you can come along and let's discuss it together!"
Twenty minutes later...
Chi Feichi and Koshizu Nanatsuki changed into regular clothes and came to the living room of the guest room area to join Kuroba Kaito and Terai Kinosuke.
After the servant put down the drinks ordered by the four people, Chi Feichi sent the servant away and told Bonnard not to let anyone approach the living room casually.
Kuroba Kaito went to the corridor outside the living room and looked around, confirming that all the servants had left, then returned to the living room and sat down, talking about business in a low voice, "Brother Chi, Grandpa and I have already confirmed that this time
The "Sunflower" that will be auctioned in New York is the "Ashiya Sunflower" that was almost destroyed in the war."
Terai Huangnosuke explained seriously, "The person in charge of the auction had already asked experts to appraise the painting before holding the auction. We found the expert's appraisal report in their office, and through the analysis of the canvas
Material testing showed that the painting was made from the same canvas as other paintings by Van Gogh, and the painting details were consistent with Van Gogh's habits, so the painting should be authentic. Moreover, Master Kaito and I sneaked in to inspect the painting.
When I was painting, I also found some signs of damage on the edge of the painting. The "Ashiya Himawari" was rescued from the fire. Even though the painting was protected by a frame at the time, the painting had always experienced high temperature baking.
, the paint will definitely have some traces of melting..."
"In addition, when the painting that will be auctioned this time was discovered, it was protected by a frame. However, when the painting was appraised, the frame was removed," Kuroba Kaito said seriously, "Grandpa and I found it.
Where the frame was kept at the auction, my grandfather was able to confirm that it was the frame used when the 'Ashiya Himawari' was given away, so we concluded that the painting was the 'Ashiya Himawari'."
"The auction will start tomorrow night," Koshizui Nanatsuki turned to look at Chi Feichi beside him and said with a smile, "Now that you have confirmed it, we can safely participate in the auction tomorrow night.
"
"Before that, I have something to ask..." Kuroba Kaito's expression did not become relaxed. He looked at Chi Feichi and Koshizui Nanatsuki and asked seriously, "Have you heard that Suzuki Consultant
Are you planning to hold an exhibition of sunflower paintings in Japan? He seems to be planning to loan all of Van Gogh's "Sunflower" paintings to Japan to hold a special exhibition of "Sunflower"..."
??????55.??????
"Mr. Jiroji arrived in New York this morning. On his way from the airport to the hotel, the two of us talked on the phone," Chi Feichi said. "He told me on the phone that he wanted to prepare an exhibition of sunflower paintings, but he did not
He didn’t say much, he just asked me to meet tomorrow to discuss it in detail.”
"In other words, did you just find out about this from that uncle today?" Kuroba Kaito confirmed to Chi Feichi seriously.
Chi Feichi nodded and said, "That's right."
In fact, before he came to the United States, he already knew that Suzuki Jiroyoshi wanted to hold a sunflower exhibition, but no one would believe him...
"This is very strange," Kuroba Kaito frowned and murmured. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, used it to log into a black market trading website, pulled out a message, and then handed the phone to Chi Feichi.
, "At around three o'clock this afternoon, my account on the black market trading website received such an anonymous message..."
Koshizui Nanatsuki leaned over and looked at the message on the phone with Chi Feichi. He read the message in a low voice, "Jiroyoshi Suzuki, the consultant of the Suzuki Foundation, is preparing to hold a "Sunflower" painting exhibition. At that time, all Van Gogh's "Sunflower" paintings will be held.
The paintings will be gathered in Tokyo, Japan. I would like to entrust you to steal Van Gogh's second and fifth paintings "Sunflowers". I can exchange them for the gem information you are interested in. If you are willing, please reply to me or
Leave a contact information and we will communicate by phone..."
"Before I saw this anonymous message, I didn't know that Suzuki consultant wanted to hold a sunflower exhibition. At first, I thought it was a prank, but then the other party sent me information about gem exhibits in a museum, which contained the internal structure of the museum.
Picture, anti-theft system information, it doesn’t look fake..." Kuroba Kaito scrolled down the message and asked Chi Feichi and Koshisui Nanatsuki to read the attached information below, "Because I felt that the other party was serious, so
I checked the recent news and forum messages on the Internet, but I still couldn’t find any news about the Japanese Sunflower Art Exhibition. This means that Suzuki consultants haven’t spread the relevant news yet, right? The person who left me a message is from
Where did you learn about this?"
"Do you suspect that the other person is someone close to Consultant Suzuki?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked thoughtfully.
"Yeah..." Kuroba Kaito analyzed seriously, "Lending all of Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" to be exhibited together, for such a big thing, the Suzuki family uncle shouldn't remain silent, if he hasn't already
If the news comes out, it means that he feels that now is not a good time to announce it to the outside world. In this case, he will not tell outsiders about it. The people who know the news must be the people around him!"
"Master Fei Chi, do you know who Consultant Suzuki told this matter?" Kinosuke Terai said with a worried look, "The person who left the anonymous message wanted Kaito Kid to steal two of the paintings.
It's possible that they want to ruin Suzuki's consultant's exhibition plan. If we leave it alone, I'm worried that the other party will not hesitate to destroy those "Sunflower" paintings in order to ruin the exhibition..."
"I don't know how many people know about this matter at the moment," Chi Feichi said matter-of-factly. "The only people I know who know about it are me, my parents, Koshimizu, Sonoko, and the secretary brought by Mr. Jirokichi."
"But, does the other party really want to destroy the art exhibition?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki raised doubts, "If he just wants to destroy the art exhibition, wouldn't it be enough to let Kaitou Kidd steal a painting at will? Why should the second painting be designated?
And what about the fifth painting, "Sunflowers"?"
"I don't understand this either..." Kuroba Kaito thought for a while and said with a firm tone, "The second "Sunflower" is something that grandpa attaches great importance to, and it is also a painting that Brother Chi wants to buy. No matter what,
, let’s investigate it carefully!”
Koshimi Nanatsuki nodded in agreement and asked, "Have you replied to the other party?"
