The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

In the hall of the art museum, a handsome middle-aged man looked at Qin Zhibo from a distance, then walked straight over and once again showed his standard smile for dealing with others.

"Mr. Qin, we meet again."

Forehead.

Seeing Matsumoto Ryohei here, Qin Zhibo didn't know how to answer the call.

However, Matsumoto Ryohei had already put his arm around Qin Zhibo's shoulders familiarly and invited Qin Zhibo into the art museum.

Of course, tickets are free of charge.

Walking in the art gallery of the art museum, Qin Zhibo looked around at the art gallery, which was still very familiar with its layout.

"So...your new job is to be the curator here?"

"Yes."

Matsumoto Ryohei smiled and nodded, looking around at the various artworks displayed around him with slightly narrowed eyes.

"The original director here was arrested by the police because he was involved in a murder case, and the person who was killed was the owner who planned to transform this place into a hotel."

"The hotel renovation plan is bankrupt, the art gallery continues to operate, and I will be the one to "take care" of these artworks in the future."

As expected of someone who had been a senior butler before, he regards "care" as the key word in his job.

However, in Qin Zhibo's opinion, such emotions are more dangerous.

Like the previous director Ochiai, he was too emotionally invested and regarded the museum as his own child, which led to his obsession.

"This is a good job, and it suits you very well."

Qin Zhibo had investigated Matsumoto Ryohei's information before and knew that Matsumoto Ryohei was quite talented and skilled in art.

In addition, both the housekeeper and the curator are management-oriented jobs. Qin Zhibo feels from the bottom of his heart that this is the most suitable job for Matsumoto Ryohei besides the housekeeper's job.

"Thanks."

"By the way, you shouldn't be just passing through here, right?"

Faced with Matsumoto Ryohei's question, Qin Zhibo should have said that he was indeed just passing by and was curious about who the new curator was, so he stopped by to take a look.

But Qin Zhibo suddenly remembered the painting "God's Punishment" that gave him some inspiration last time.

The demon depicted in the painting gave Qin Zhibo a feeling of real existence.

So at this moment, Qin Zhibo had a sudden idea and wanted to see the painting up close again.

"Oh that painting"

"It's a pity that the painting was bought a few days ago."

"Buy it?"

Qin Zhibo was a little confused about this statement.

"Well, you also know that this art museum belongs to an individual owner, right?"

"The boss sold the painting to an art dealer from the United States. It is said that the transaction price was particularly high. The owner of the art gallery relied on this money to settle the financial problem and allow the art gallery to continue operating. "

An American art dealer traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to acquire a hilarious painting by an unknown artist?

Qin Zhibo felt a little strange, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"God's Punishment" could not be watched, but Matsumoto Ryohei immediately made an invitation to Qin Zhibo.

"Mr. Qin, can you come to my house for dinner later?"

Qin Zhibo, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, glanced at Matsumoto Ryohei who was driving in front of him, and then glanced outside the car window at the mountains and forests that were getting darker and darker as the sky got darker.

Originally, Qin Zhibo thought that Matsumoto Ryohei's home was in Mihua Town, and he could save some money by going for a casual meal.

As a result, Matsumoto Ryohei drove directly out of Mihua Town and came to a suburb called "Tōto Mountains" on the navigation system.

According to this situation, Qin Zhibo should have been anxious inside, and might even have thought about how to jump out of the car and run away.

After all, Qin Zhibo knew that Matsumoto Ryohei had cannibalism, and this kind of thing was enough to arouse Matsumoto Ryohei's murderous intention.

The wild mountains and ridges here don't look like there are many people around, so it's a good place for killing people and selling goods.

But Qin Zhibo didn't panic at all. He lay leisurely on the back seat, sometimes feeling bored and yawning loudly.

Seeing Qin Zhibo's reaction through the rearview mirror in the car, Matsumoto Ryohei raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.

What an incredible man.

As the car engine stopped, a large villa with a simple architectural style broke into Qin Zhibo's field of vision.

"There is actually a villa in this deep mountain and old forest?"

"Yes." Matsumoto Ryohei took out a box tightly wrapped in black plastic sheeting from the trunk of the car, "Actually, there are many hidden villas like this in this mountain forest."

"A few decades ago, it was popular for wealthy people to build villas in such places."

Qin Zhibo captured some useful information from Matsumoto Ryohei's words.

"So you're a rich man?"

Matsumoto Ryohei thought for a moment, "This villa was inherited from my father, but unfortunately, apart from this villa, my father did not leave anything else more valuable."

Entering the interior of the villa, the interior decoration style is relatively classical, dominated by wooden structure and red paint.

While walking, Matsumoto Ryohei also introduced the situation of the villa.

"Actually, I just moved back here recently. I used to live in Master Shuyu's house."

"It's some distance from the town. It would be a bit troublesome if we don't hire people. Moreover, this villa is on the shady side of the mountain, so the lighting is not very good even during the day."

"In contrast, over the hill there is a blue castle building."

"Before the old owner there died, I was invited to see the unique view that can only be seen from that castle."

"That's truly a treasure."

Matsumoto Ryohei talked eloquently, first invited Qin Zhibo to the living room, and then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

In the classic living room, a color TV is installed in a more humane way, and it can still be used.

Not only that, Rena Minami's TV show is not over yet.

Reina Mizuno: "Recently, the police uncovered a kidnapping case of a young girl. The arrested kidnapper Sagawa Kazumasa was also a suspect in the disappearance of XX three years ago."

"According to the information disclosed by the police so far, Kazumasa Sagawa was in a relationship with his boyfriend and girlfriend from the XX family who disappeared three years ago. The specific motive and details of the crime have not been disclosed by the police."

Male anchor: "I am really becoming more and more doubtful about the police's ability to handle cases. For a case three years ago, it took three years for the murderer to commit another crime before he could be caught."

"Do the police really have to rely on self-righteous detectives to solve cases? Who can guarantee the safety of the Japanese people if this continues?"

After hearing what the male anchor said, Qin Zhibo raised his eyebrows.

It was he who praised the high school detective as the savior of the Japanese police last time, but this time it was he who looked down on the detective in his words.

Are they really just wallflowers?

At this moment, Matsumoto Ryohei walked out of the kitchen and called Qin Zhibo to the dining room to eat.

The food on the long table was rich and exquisite, making Qin Zhibo, who had been in this world for who knows how many days, feel the warmth of home for the first time.

On one side of the long table, Matsumoto Ryohei pulled out the chair from under the table like a butler, arranged for Qin Zhibo to sit on it, and put a napkin around Qin Zhibo, but he did not immediately sit down on the other side of the table.

Matsumoto Liangping stood quietly behind the seat, staring directly at Qin Zhibo's defenseless Tianling Gai.

"Actually, I have been thinking about it since the first time we separated."

“Consider the advice you gave above ‘eat’.”
