Journey to the Wizarding World of Hogwarts

"Hmm, it looks ordinary..." Standing in front of the Otsuka Art Museum, both Hermione and Yuko made a somewhat disappointed sound.

Compared with other art museums that like to make their doors gaudy and weird... no, it should be said to be full of artistic atmosphere. The door of the Otsuka International Museum of Art looks like a prehistoric biological exhibition hall, with a square gatehouse and regular rules. With its neat decoration and ordinary colors, it’s impossible to tell that this is an art venue with a strong artistic flair.

Fortunately, the circle of waving flags at the door proves that this art museum is at least not as low-key as its main door.

"3200 yen for a ticket..." Murakami was stunned for a moment, scratched his head, and muttered, "Good guy, this price can buy me a barbecue."

Mr. Fukuzawa Yukichi and Mr. Natsume Soseki were handed over and received two steel coins.

It stands to reason that the disappearance of the client is related to this art museum, so asking the staff is the correct answer. Unfortunately, if you ask directly, you may be regarded as a bad guy looking for trouble, so the little wizards gave up this idea and turned to A professional commentator was hired.

"500 yen..." Murakami obediently took out the money, "I hope he can let me know how those abstract and artistic paintings express the mood of the creator."

Soon, a middle-aged man appeared in front of everyone and guided them to view those precious works of art. However, when they entered the door, they saw "Genesis" or something, which was still a bit shocking. After all, the original version of this thing was in the Vatican, and because it was already After nearly five hundred years of existence, and subsequent persecution by the Popes, it was not until modern times that the giant murals were able to see the light of day again, but they still cannot be photographed and preserved.

But here, you can use your camera as much as you want, and as long as you don't turn on the flash, you can take this beautiful painting home and keep it well.

It can be said that it greatly satisfies the hearts of art lovers.

Because Neon people like Ukiyo-e, they have a deep-seated love for Impressionist paintings. Works by Van Gogh, Monet and others can be seen everywhere here. In order to display the painting "Water Lilies", they even raised them in the pond. Lots of water lilies…

"It's really crazy..." Robert couldn't help complaining, "How much energy and financial resources does it take to do this kind of thing? How obsessed is this pharmaceutical company with these paintings?"

Speaking of which, the persistence of some Neon people is indeed admirable, such as KARAS, a cartoonist who bankrupted his company and then found someone to sponsor him to continue filming.

After walking around for more than three hours, they finally walked around the art museum. Robert and Murakami felt that their minds were filled with all kinds of strange knowledge, but Yuko and Hermione listened with interest and asked questions from time to time. , interact with the commentator.

After sending everyone to the restaurant, after working hard for a long time, they could finally take a rest. Dragging their tired bodies, Robert and Murakami suddenly looked forward to the meal.

Of course, the simple meal did not disappoint them. It was indeed very delicious, but their brains were still groggy. Sure enough, receiving too much knowledge at once was not a good thing. The two of them just wanted to leave here quickly and return to the city. Then get a good night's sleep.

"Speaking of it, the economy of the Four Countries is indeed a little behind other places." Robert couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that agriculture here mainly depends on agriculture."

Murakami nodded, "It is indeed a little behind, but the natural environment here is very good, and it mainly relies on tourism."

"Ah, don't you want to go to the hot springs again..." Robert blinked, "Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"

Murakami Takashi said righteously, "If you don't take a bath in a hot spring before going to bed, even good dreams will not come to you."

Robert held his forehead, "Okay, but I'm still looking forward to dinner. The vegetables here should be delicious."

"Hey? Didn't you see?" Hermione suddenly raised her voice, attracting the attention of Robert and Murakami.

Yuko shook his head, looking puzzled, "I haven't seen that kind of painting."

"What's wrong?" Robert felt suddenly, feeling that something bad had happened to them.

Sure enough, Hermione explained, "I saw a hand-drawn sketch in the Van Gogh exhibition just now, but Yuko said she didn't see it."

"Hand-drawn sketches?" Robert wondered, aren't there all color paintings here? Why are there sketches?

Yuko also looked confused, "What kind of sketch is it?"

Hermione thought for a while and said with some uncertainty, "Probably, a person is cutting down a tree, right?"

Robert and Murakami woke up instantly, their groggy brains as tight as oiled chains.

"Did you see the sketch of someone cutting down a tree?" Robert looked confused, "Why didn't I see it?"

Murakami also nodded in agreement, "I didn't see it either."

Both of them have an idea in mind at this time, right? Did they discover the problem so quickly?

The four of them discussed it and finally decided to take a look at the strange painting that Hermione saw.

Returning along the original path, they quickly found the previous exhibition hall.

"Right here." Hermione said, leading them around a corner of the exhibition hall...

Wait, turned a corner?

Robert looked confused. Alas, is it possible to turn here? Isn't it straight?

This wall, shouldn't it be straight? Why is there a corner?

Not only was he a little confused, but Murakami Takashi and Yuko were also a little confused. They subconsciously followed Hermione around the corner, and then they saw the painting she was talking about.

"Is there really a painting?" Yuko exclaimed, "It does look like a sketch, but can the sketch also be colored?"

Murakami Takashi's somewhat surprised voice came, "Yeah, why is the sketch colored? Did he originally plan to draw it?"

Well, speaking of which, there’s nothing wrong with coloring the sketch, right? Who can guarantee that he can directly draw the desired effect, so...

No, wait, this is an oil painting.

In Robert's mind, oil painting is no more than a wall tile. You need to apply cement to the wall tiles so that it can be combined with other bricks to eventually form a straight or curved wall.

If there is a brick and the cement on it is not evenly applied, it may cause the wall to collapse.

Therefore, the mason must adjust the thickness of the cement from time to time and apply it back and forth so that the cement on the entire wall looks evenly thin.

When creating oil paintings, it often happens that the artist suddenly doesn't want a certain small item or feels that the action is a bit distorted. They will use other paints to smear on the previous paintings to cover up these flaws.
