Conan stared dumbfounded at the silver-white long-haired man in front of him. With the swing of the sharp long knife in his hand, all those strange-looking behemoths were chopped into pieces of meat of different sizes.

The pieces of meat fell on the ground and wriggled non-stop. Conan felt a desire to vomit in his heart. Fortunately, it was only a short while before the pieces of meat trembled and disappeared.

The floor was clean, as if everything just now was his illusion.

Lu Sheng had already noticed the extraordinaryness of the box, and held Miqie Wan to split the barrier to enter it, but the hardness of the barrier would bounce him away, Miqie Wan trembled and screamed, But the barrier cover remained motionless.

What a powerful enchantment.

He took a few steps back, and a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes. If he couldn't break the barrier, it meant he couldn't save the humans inside. Could it be that there is no way this time?

Lu Sheng wanted to do something else, but the vibrato that just happened by Mi Miqiemaru was very harsh in the silent exhibition hall, and immediately attracted the attention of the police.

He frowned, and quickly picked up Conan and jumped into the corridor on the second floor, perfectly staggering the sight of the police officers.

Fortunately, when the Kaitou Kidd invaded the art museum, he had already destroyed all the cameras around him.

"Shh-"

He covered Conan's mouth, and under the startled gaze of the other party, said in a low voice: "Don't tell others what you just saw, or you will be eaten by monsters."

Lu Sheng used the tone of fooling a child to scare the other party in a serious manner. Although he didn't think his words had much deterrent effect, the other party was just a child, and there was no evidence to say anything to an adult, so don't worry too much.

Conan Xiaoji nodded as if pecking at rice. He didn't believe Lu Sheng's words from the bottom of his heart, but he still had to respond in a way that echoed his appearance.

This person's voice sounded like Xia You's boyfriend. He had just realized the darkness, and this person's hair was also silvery white. He almost mistook him for Ibaraki.

Lu Sheng got his assurance, but he still didn't let go of him, but stared sharply at the group of low-level monsters hovering in the sky above the first floor.The police officers in the hall seemed completely oblivious to this scene, looking for Kidd everywhere.

Obviously, under his shock, those monsters no longer dare to show themselves in front of human beings without authorization.

Conan tensed his body and followed Lu Sheng's gaze, subconsciously lowered his voice and exclaimed.

I thought all the monsters were killed by this strange man in front of me, but I didn't expect that there are so many terrifying monsters circling in the art gallery, densely packed, making one's hair stand on end!

Feeling that something was wrong with Conan, Lu Sheng gave him a strange look, "Can you see these monsters? They are ordinary humans without spiritual power."

Conan was also slightly taken aback. Didn't other people see these scary guys?

Lu Sheng inspected him for a while, finally set his eyes on the guard in his trouser pocket, and said clearly: "I wear a guard on my body, so it's like this..."

Conan pretended to be arrogant and looked at him with half understanding, but he understood what was going on in his heart.

It seems that the reason why he was able to see the monster was influenced by this ward.

"Is this guard very powerful?" He couldn't help asking in a low voice.

Obviously this thing looks no different from the omamori sold in small shops.

"It's a nice little thing." Lu Sheng nodded slightly, and couldn't help telling him, "Although it doesn't have any offensive power, it has a very strong spiritual power on it."

"Don't panic when you meet a monster, pray to the guard for safety, and it will protect you from harm with an enchantment."

So it turned out that the reason why those monsters didn't eat him in one bite just now was probably because of Yushou.

Conan's back was oozing with cold sweat of fear. Fortunately, he was careful and intuitively put the guard that Xia You gave him on his body, otherwise it might have become food in the mouth of monsters.

Lu Sheng was still carefully observing the movements of the monsters, and also used his monster aura to frighten the other party, intending to force these monsters to leave the North Museum of Fine Arts.

The police officers on the first floor searched around but couldn't find Kidd's shadow, and left again.

Shocked by his demonic aura, the monsters reluctantly withdrew from the North Pavilion, but they were still reluctant to return to the other shore.

Lu Sheng had a headache, these monsters just wanted to eat the miasma of the box, but he couldn't solve the enchantment of the box.

It seems that the only option is to bring the box back to the Nuliang Group. With Hua Piao's strength, there may be a way to solve it.

For the first time in his life, Conan really came into contact with another creature in the world that only existed in legends. Although he felt that his three views had been severely refreshed, his mind was still full of doubts despite his complicated emotions.

"Big brother, are you a monster too? Then why can I see you..."

The other party didn't look like a human being at all, nor did he look like an onmyoji.

"I'm a human with a quarter of Yokai blood."

Lu Sheng replied casually, but found that the group of monsters who had already left became restless again, and immediately looked serious.

He took a closer look, only to find that a stream of light flashed across the box on the display cabinet, and three figures escaped from the box barrier and appeared in the north hall out of thin air. It was Xia You and the others.

"It turns out that they have already broken through the barrier." He withdrew his demonic aura instantly, so as not to be noticed by the other party.

Although he was a little upset, he had to admit that the opponent's strength was indeed superior to his, and he had to be convinced of this.

After Xia You showed up, she immediately left the North Pavilion with the box.

A hint of doubt flashed in Lu Sheng's eyes. Since they have the strength, it shouldn't be difficult to get rid of the box and purify the miasma, but they didn't do it for some reason, but left the North Pavilion with the box, obviously to lure all the monsters here. Walk.

As the miasma went away, the monsters in the North Pavilion also left after the smell that drove them crazy.

Lu Sheng hesitated for a moment, but he still couldn't rest assured, he held Miqie Maru tightly and planned to catch up to observe the situation.

"There is no danger here. Are you a relative of Mr. Detective? Children, don't run around at night, go back to the adults."

As soon as the words fell, he jumped from the window of the corridor to the outside of the North Hall with Conan in his arms, leaving one person behind, who dodged to catch up with a knife.

Conan froze and stood in the cool night wind for a while before he came back to his senses.

Reason tells him that he may still see those terrifying monsters if he keeps up, but...

Touching the guard in his trouser pocket, Conan settled down and ran towards the South Hall with his short legs.

He just saw Kidd's figure!

*****

"Who could be helping us behind the scenes?" Xia You asked in a low voice suspiciously on the way to the South Pavilion.

Just after she came out of the enchantment of the box, she saw the remains of monsters scattered on the ground. The remaining limbs were located in the space on the other side. Humans couldn't see them, but she and Ibaraki could.

"Anyway, let's settle this guy's matter first." Ibaraki didn't give a positive answer, but his eyebrows moved.

The moment he left the box, he seemed to smell an unpleasant familiar evil spirit, but it was only for a moment.

Xia You nodded, and looked at the group of monsters chasing after her with a headache, "It's really perseverance."

She didn't have emergency syrup.

Even if Ibaraki frightens them with demonic power, this group of monsters are unwilling to keep the delicious meal of box and miasma out of their sight. The IQ of low-level monsters is the lowest, and they are the least able to control the instinctive desire to eat.

There are too many human beings in the North Pavilion, and the most important thing right now is to lure these monsters to the vicinity of the South Pavilion, and then eradicate them together.

In addition, as long as the distorted obsession of this box is resolved, the opponent will no longer continuously generate miasma.

Thinking of this, Xia You glanced at the box in Kidd's arms.

On the top of the box, there are only two palm-sized dolls sitting on it, holding the sparrow feathers tightly and looking into the distance anxiously.

Just now, Xia You reached a special agreement with her.

The "friend" described by this monster is none other than the picture scroll called "Flower, Bird and Moon" that Yukimura mentioned to her before.

Flowers and Birds Fengyue was originally the posthumous work of the painter who devoted his whole life. It has extraordinary significance. His descendants have made promises to protect this painting from damage.They purposely searched for beautiful gemstones in the world and mixed them with the hard bones of monsters to create such a special box for the purpose of protecting this picture scroll.

Feeling the wishes of the painter and his descendants, this monster that should be "cherished and protected" was born.

Protecting "Flowers, Birds, Love and Moon" is the meaning of its existence.

As a picture scroll filled with countless emotions, a hundred years after the owner's death, it was infected by the evil spirit guarded by the box monster, and finally has its own life and consciousness.And the scorpion that has guarded the flower and bird scroll for a hundred years is finally no longer alone, and has the first companion since its life.

This is not only the friend she has guarded for thousands of years, but also the same kind of birth she has guarded with her own eyes. The flower and bird scroll is of great significance to her.

It's a pity that I didn't expect that the time of the world has changed, and many changes have taken place in the human world. 200 years ago, the two demons were sealed and bound in their bodies under the intervention of the onmyoji, and they were forced to separate from each other.

Friends and family members who had guarded for more than 1000 years were taken away, and this box gave birth to great obsession and resentment.

In the box just now, Xia You promised to help her find Fengyue, and erase the mark of prohibition on them.In exchange, Xizi must give up the contract signed with Kidd, and let the human go away after the matter is completed.

"You guys go in and look for paintings. Let me deal with these monsters." Ibaraki left a word in a low voice, then his eyes turned cold, and he turned into ghost claws to guard the entrance of the South Pavilion.

It was late at night, and there were monsters from the other side who smelled the miasma, and continuously crossed the boundary of this side, very annoying.

Ibaraki frowned, deeply feeling that the rules and constraints of this world were really troublesome and in the way.

If it wasn't for fear of making too much noise and attracting humans, he would have impatiently crushed all these monsters who had no other desire in their minds except to eat.

Kidd and Xia You quietly groped into the dark and deserted South Pavilion, and followed their memory to the place where the Flowers, Birds, and Moon were previously exhibited by the moonlight.

The south hall was closed in the afternoon. In response to the stolen letters from the Maoyan organization, the paintings exhibited inside have not been removed.

Worried that the lights would attract the night guards in the art museum, Kidd didn't even dare to turn on the flashlight. In the dark exhibition hall, he could only follow Xia You cautiously, sighing inwardly.

An envoy is an envoy, and the night vision ability is not comparable to that of ordinary humans!

On the wall, there is an empty place where a copy of the painting should be hung. It is the place where the landscape painting was exhibited before, and now it has been stolen by the Maoyan organization.

But next to the empty wall, the famous "Flower, Bird and Moon" is still quietly hung there.

"is her!"

The doll screamed softly, and almost jumped up from the box excitedly. Kidd quickly held the box firmly to prevent her from rolling off the top.

There was a glimmer of light on the scroll.

Under the moonlight, the girl in white clothed in the painting came alive, she covered her vermilion lips lightly with her sleeves, her eyes were full of astonishment, her face full of disbelief.

"You... how could you... wait, what happened to your injury!"

When the girl saw the crack on the doll's body, her expression immediately became extremely excited, and she wished she could rush out of the picture scroll immediately.

The Flower and Bird Scroll did exactly that, but she was locked in the scroll by the seal set by the Onmyoji, so she could only lie on the scroll as if separated by a layer of glass, looking at the box with pity and nervousness, helpless.

Kidd stood by, his eyes straightened.

He didn't expect that this picture scroll, which he had never noticed before, turned out to be such a miraculous existence!

"Respected lady envoy, can you touch the seal for my friend now as agreed?"

Taking a deep breath, the doll tried to calm down her excited face, and turned to look at Xia You.

"No problem, but it may take some time." Xia You nodded, the restriction on the picture scroll is very strong, but it is not difficult to break through the method that Huang taught her.

"Don't interrupt me while I'm erasing the ban, or your friend may get hurt."

Xia You warned with a serious expression, then stood in front of the picture scroll, concentrated her strength, and carefully broke the above restrictions bit by bit.

At the same time, the doll excitedly explained the ins and outs to the puzzled girl in the painting.

Kidd had already placed the box on the ground. With his hands in his trouser pockets, he walked slowly to the marble pillar next to him, staring at the scene in front of him in a daze.

Everything tonight was so dreamy.

If he didn't pinch himself, he thought he was dreaming.

"My injuries are fine, don't worry."

"Then why is your demon spirit so weak?"

"It's okay, it's just that there is still a seal under the box that has not been released."

"Then why don't you ask Master Xia You to help you lift the seal first..."

"No, I have to rescue you first." The puppet doll smiled and shook her head, sitting on the box and looking at the flowers and birds, her eyes are full of bright little stars, "We can be together again in the future, forever are not separated."

She has guarded the picture scroll for more than 1000 years, and she has seen too many humans greedily trying to steal the picture scroll, or all kinds of big and small demons who eat them to increase their demon power.

So when Yukimura's great-grandfather wanted to open the box, she thought that humans were going to steal her flower and bird rolls, so she locked the barrier tightly to prevent outsiders from approaching, thus attracting the onmyoji.

Now, she understands that the current side is completely different from what it used to be. As long as she and Huaniaojuan are safe and don't do anything harmful to human beings, there will be no risk of being sealed and exiled.

The monsters who are still living in the world today carefully follow the rules of this side and the other side, and they don't have to worry about being swallowed by big monsters at any time. On the contrary, they are much safer than hundreds of thousands of years ago.

While the two monsters were telling each other how much they missed each other, the monsters outside the South Pavilion were crying out in mourning, and Ibaraki almost effortlessly swept across the entire battlefield with a crushing posture.

As the distorted obsession of the box gradually dissipated, Ibaraki could clearly feel the miasma around him slowly disappearing, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, footsteps sounded in the distance, followed by the light of the flashlight.

It was the night watch guard patrolling to the south building.

Ibaraki frowned and glanced at Xia You in the south hall. After confirming that the problem was not serious, he dodged close to the night guards and successfully lured them away.

"Who is that figure!?"

"It's not Kaitou Kidd, is it? Follow up and have a look!"

The lights and footsteps fade away again.

After a while, the monster corpses scattered on the other side quickly attracted a strange monster nearby.

The monster is a wandering little monster who hasn't had enough to eat for a long time. After seeing the corpses scattered all over the place, he immediately pounced on it to feast on it and wiped it all away.It ate very quickly, because if it didn't eat quickly, the wreckage of these monsters would dissipate in the wind on the other side.

And the demonic aura of the dead monster was full of resentment for not being able to swallow the miasma. After a short while, after devouring the demonic energy, the monster was gradually dominated by the residual desire in the demonic energy.

It has not eaten enough, it still wants to eat more.

After eating the remains of the monsters, it followed the instinct of eating, and rushed towards the faint monster aura emanating from the south hall.

Under the strong impact, the transparent glass shattered with a loud noise.

Xia You's mind was shaken suddenly, and the thoughts immersed in the sea of ​​consciousness were called back, and she opened her eyes suddenly.

Sensing that there was something strange happening around her, and when she felt the evil spirit rushing towards Kidd, her immobile body didn't have time to withdraw her gesture.

Only Kidd, who was shocked, looked at the broken glass on the ground and didn't know what happened, but when he came back to his senses, a doll was already floating in front of him. Blocked a heavy blow.

There was a light in the air.

The doll fell to the ground, its limbs were twisted in a strange posture, like a completely broken toy.

Kidd was shocked and looked at it with a pale face.

"My lord, there are monsters!" Hua Niaoju's panicked cry rang in his ears.

The ability to break solid glass seems to be not a low-level monster born in the gap between the two banks, but an aboriginal monster on this bank.

Most of the box's enchantment was destroyed when he fought Ibaraki just now, and he was a guardian monster with no attack power. Of course, Xia You knew what danger Kidd was facing not far away.

When the huge one-eyed monster approached the stunned Kidd, Xia You had to speed up at the last moment of breaking the restriction.

Fearing that this rough action would hurt the flower and bird roll, Xia You was stuck at the last moment when the restriction was broken, and suddenly withdrew her gesture. The powerful spiritual power instantly flowed back into her body, and she was shocked by the impact, her face turned pale.

She knew that this was the result of improper use of power and disordered spiritual power, as Huang once said.

But at this moment, Xia You didn't care about the pain, and immediately rushed forward to push Kidra away, gathering all the strength in his hands, using his palm as a blade, and slashed fiercely at the monster.

The power that could have killed the opponent in one blow, was stunned because of the chaos of spiritual power that could only barely injure the opponent.

"Miss Angel, are you okay!" Kidd saw that her face was not right, and immediately reacted, and supported her with a serious expression.

"Stop talking nonsense, you take those two monsters out of the pavilion first..." Xia You took a breath with a pale face, and continued to speak anxiously, "It's over if you attract the guards with such a big commotion!"

Hearing this, Kidd's face also tightened, but he paused, and finally did not choose to escape by himself.

"Even at the risk of being caught by the police, I can't keep Miss here alone."

"you……"

"Don't worry, although I am a human being, I am still Kaitou Kidd, and I won't be defeated so easily."

After Kidd finished speaking calmly, he fumbled for the props he was carrying, and was about to deal with the enemy with Xia You, when he saw a tall figure leaping out of the shattered glass wall.

Nuliang Rikusheng, who was quietly watching the progress of the situation in the distance, finally couldn't hold back and rushed over when he saw this scene.

Holding the Mimiqiewan, his eyes were filled with coldness, and he slashed at the monster several times to kill it completely, and the huge body of the monster immediately fell heavily on the glass slag.

Seeing this person's familiar face and iconic long white and black hair, Xia You was startled, and called out in astonishment.

"Nura Lusheng?"

Lu Sheng paused, and he put away Miqie Wan and turned to look at Xia You solemnly. He could tell at a glance that the spiritual power in her body was out of order, and she temporarily lost her ability to move.

Stepping over in three steps and two steps, Lu Sheng took Xia You's left hand and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I'll use your strength."

Afterwards, he held Xia You's left hand and swiped in the air, using the other party's power and privilege as Gao Tianyuan's envoy, drew a line out of thin air, and sent the monster's body to the other side of the other line.

There was glass shards all over the South Pavilion, and the scene was in a mess, but there were no monsters.

Outside the museum, the flashlight lights up in the distance, it is the guards who heard the movement and rushed over quickly.

"You can't stay here, go!"

After the words fell, Xia You, who was in shock, hadn't realized why the other party would suddenly appear to help her, and found that she was hugged by the other party and quickly left the South Pavilion.

"Don't be in a daze, let's go."

The girl in the painting has broken through the restriction and came outside the painting. She lovingly picked up the dirty box on the ground and chased after Xia You's figure.

Hearing the police officers shouting, Kidd finally came back to his senses.

He stared fixedly at the broken doll on the ground, stepped forward to pick it up, held it gently in his arms, and left the south building before the police arrived.

*****

Conan chased towards the south hall with his short legs, and when he chased into the south hall before the police, Xia You and the others had all disappeared.

He looked at the broken glass on the ground, smashed his palm tightly with his fist, gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it! Let Kidd run away again!"

Hearing the sound, the guards rushed in panting. The leader was Kogoro Mori, who had been looking for Kidd for a long time. He had just received a message from the patrolling guards on the intercom, saying that he had seen a suspicious figure near the South Hall. , Immediately rushed here at the fastest speed.

"Looks like... it's one step too late." Mori Kogoro said with a serious expression, when he saw Conan's figure through the flashlight, his face immediately turned black, and he yelled angrily.

"You brat! Why are you here in the middle of the night! Didn't you go back to the hotel with Hui Yuanai and the others?"

It seemed that Hui Yuan Ai had already gone back first, and even covered him before leaving.

"Uh... Uncle... Well, listen to my explanation." Conan coughed lightly and said embarrassingly, "I suddenly had diarrhea and wanted to go to the bathroom, so I asked Xiao Ai to go back first."

Mori Kogoro still had a dark face, "Did you have to run from the lounge in the North Building to the South Building to go to the toilet?"

"Hey! I said you little boy, don't you know how dangerous it is in the middle of the night? You little kid is addicted to detective games at night, and I have to educate you for Dr. A Li today!"

Now, he didn't even care about Kidd who escaped, and stood on the same floor with a serious face and began to educate the children.

Conan drooped his head with a disheveled face, and sighed deeply under the love of Mori Kogoro.

He turned his head to the side helplessly, and froze immediately when he saw the wall.

On the wall was a familiar painting, which he had seen in the afternoon, and the owner's grandson told him a boring story.

But at this moment, the flowers, plants and birds in the painting are still there, but the center of the painting is blank.

The white-clothed girl above had disappeared.
