Kamen Rider: I, Conan, am Faiz

Suzuki Museum of Art

“Wow, there are so many artworks.”

"As expected of the famous Suzuki Group, they were able to acquire so many works of art."

"But then again, why are there so few people?"

Since entering the art museum, Conan found that there were not many people inside. At least he had not seen any reporters since he entered. And for the flamboyant Suzuki Jirokichi, this was undoubtedly a first for her!

Seeing Conan's confusion, the guide, Sonoko, said proudly, "This is a special arrangement by Uncle Jirokichi. He said that those annoying reporters don't know how to appreciate art at all, and their noise will only disturb the noble soul of the artwork, so reporters are not allowed to enter."

[It's really simple and crude, but it's effective enough~]

Conan turned his head and looked at the people who were traveling with him. Ran, Ai, and Sonoko would of course be there, and Akiba Reiko, who was invited and was the chief music teacher of the Suzuki family, would naturally be there too. Even the [dead] Miyano Akemi had followed in disguise.

Before leaving, Conan was still a little curious about why Miyano Akemi also had to come with her personality?

As a result of this question, I realized that Miyano Akemi was actually an artistic young woman. She had a special interest in art since her student days, and her greatest admirer of painting was Van Gogh.

Because Miyano Akemi always felt that Van Gogh's situation before his death was very similar to her own at that time. They both lived in darkness without seeing the sun. Van Gogh had a younger brother with whom he could confide his feelings, and she also had a younger sister, Ai, who could serve as a spiritual support.

But compared to Van Gogh, Miyano Akemi is relatively lucky. Although she has been to the gates of hell, she has at least completely escaped from the clutches of the organization and is living the life she has always dreamed of with Ai. However, Van Gogh was still living in darkness until the moment before he committed suicide.

Before they knew it, the group arrived in front of the display case where "Sunflowers" was kept and were instantly attracted by the painting.

Xiaolan couldn't help but sigh: "Is this the famous "Sunflower"? It's really full of a different kind of beauty."

Akita Reiko also showed appreciation and said, "I feel inspired again. Maybe I can compose another song."

Miyano Akemi was a little sad: "But the irony is that Van Gogh's paintings were not recognized by anyone during his lifetime. He was not given the title of master until after his death. I wonder how desperate Van Gogh was before he committed suicide."

Looking at the three people who had gained something, Yuanzi scratched his head in embarrassment: "How did you see that? Why don't I feel anything at all?"

This simple painting does indeed cause different emotional fluctuations in everyone's heart, but not everyone's attention is focused on the painting.

For example, Conan is a typical example. When he saw the "Sunflower" in front of him, he first wondered why Kaito Kid would target a painting? You know, he used to target gems and the like. Is there any hidden reason?

While Conan frowned and tried to make inferences, Ai's eyes stayed on the great detective's face, never leaving it for a moment. Even when she saw that the other party was frowning, she would reveal a helpless bitter smile.

After about two or three minutes, the group lost interest in "Sunflowers", and then they went their separate ways to appreciate their favorite paintings, while Conan, who was concentrating on reasoning, and Ai, who was concentrating on watching people, stayed where they were and did not move.

"Hello little sister, may I bother you for a moment?"

"Ok?"

Just when Ai focused all her attention on Conan, she suddenly felt someone patting her shoulder gently. She turned around and saw a friendly middle-aged man looking at her with a smile.

"Excuse me……"

"Thank you, but I refuse sales, I don't buy insurance, and I don't need extracurricular tutoring. In addition, my parents died early and my family has a house, so I also refuse to rent a cemetery or a house."

Without waiting for the other party to explain her intentions, Xiao Ai crossed her arms and started talking nonsense, immediately refuting the other party speechless.

But fortunately, this big brother had a good mentality. Facing Xiao Ai's continuous critical strikes, he regained his composure after a while and continued:

"Little sister, you misunderstood. I'm not a salesperson. I just want to say that compared to this painting, it seems to be more attractive to your attention~"

"Hey?"

Not expecting the other party to say this, Ai was stunned at first, then subconsciously turned her head to glance at Conan, and a faint blush instantly appeared on her fair cheeks.

As if sensing Ai's strange gaze, Conan immediately turned his head to look. When he saw an adult standing in front of Ai with a meaningful smile on his face, Conan's eyes suddenly became dangerous!

"You bastard! What are you going to do to Haibara!?"

Conan took a big step forward and protected Ai tightly behind him. He gritted his teeth and issued a warning to the middle-aged man in front of him, even growling like a beast.

Conan's shout not only shocked Ai, but also attracted the attention of other people who were admiring the painting.

When they saw Conan and Ai seemed to be in conflict with a strange man, Ran, who was wearing Orphino, and Akemi Miyano, who was wearing Delta, suddenly looked unfriendly and took the lead to step forward and stand in front of Conan.

Xiaolan: "Sir, may I ask what you have to do with these two children?"

Miyano Akemi: "We can talk it out if we have something to say. Of course, if you don't want to talk about reason, we can also use other ways to communicate in a friendly manner."

"Hey, this, this... You two have misunderstood. I'm not a suspicious person. I... Hey! Miss Sonoko! Could you please explain it to me?"

The middle-aged man noticed the garden not far away with his peripheral vision, and he immediately shouted for help as if he had seen a savior.

After seeing the true face of the middle-aged man, Sonoko hurriedly jumped out to stop the conflict.

"Everyone, don't be impulsive! This gentleman is Mr. Xiao Jianan from the Shenzhou Embassy (played by Woz, a student who loves to watch special effects). He is a distinguished guest of our Suzuki Group! He is not a suspicious person!"

With Yuanzi's intervention, the group was able to calm down a little and then listened to Xiao Jianan's explanation, but of course he did not mention the conversation with Xiao Ai.

Just as Xiao Jianan was explaining, Suzuki Jirokichi came rushing over.

"Oh! Long time no see, Mr. Xiao. I'm so sorry I couldn't pick you up at the airport in person!"

"Mr. Suzuki is also getting more and more energetic. It seems that he can easily live to be over 100 years old."

Like old friends who had not seen each other for many years, Suzuki Jirokichi and Xiao Jianan shook hands and hugged each other warmly.

Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but feel curious: "Uncle Jiroji, how did you get to know this uncle from Shenzhou?"

Hearing this, Suzuki Jiroyoshi laughed heartily and said, "This is a long story. When I was traveling through Shenzhou, I signed up for the Pig Farming Expert Competition. Mr. Xiao was a judge of the competition, and that's when we met."

Xiao Jianan smiled and explained: "In fact, I came here this time to thank Mr. Jiroji. Mr. Jiroji has provided great help in recovering our lost overseas cultural relics. He has also provided important criminal information during the war and has received death threats from radical elements for this."

"Tsk! A bunch of cowards who dare not show their faces. They made such a big mistake and yet they only want to play dumb and confuse right and wrong. What I despise most is this kind of people who dare to do things but not take responsibility!"

Without disguising his disdain, Suzuki Jirokichi looked at Xiao Jianan and continued, "Actually, I have no right to say that. After all, it was my compatriots who did such beastly things. I did this to make my conscience feel better. After all... I still don't understand what kind of beasts those bastards were back then! How could these people be so shameless now!"

Seeing that Suzuki Jirokichi was so angry that his face turned red, Xiao Jianan grabbed his hand and comforted him, "Take care of yourself, those people are not worth your anger."

For some reason, at this moment, Suzuki Jirokichi's image in everyone's eyes suddenly became much taller and more majestic, and even a faint red and gold light appeared behind him!
