Conan: I'm not really a winery boss

Chapter 32 Bloody Blessing

Ochiai?Medieval art gallery?
The two keywords directly reminded Fu Jiang of the events in the original book.

"Thank you for your help, Director Ochiai." Tomie pressed the bowler hat on his head.

"Hey, you're welcome." Curator Ochiai smiled kindly, "An old guy like me can only give young people a chance."

"You're not old yet." Tomie whispered meaningfully, and at the same time saw Curator Ochiai's 7 points of strength.

Although his physical strength has dropped to 4 points due to his age, he still retains strength and speed beyond the average person.

Because there is an unusual skill in his skill bar.

Bloody Blessing: "God's Punishment" is not just a painting, strength +2, agility +1 (it has a price)
Director Ochiai smiled and didn't say much on this topic, "If it's convenient, you can go to the museum with me now to find out the situation."

Tomie nodded, and followed Director Ochiai with his pocket in his hand.

It is only after 6 o'clock in the morning, and the art museum has not yet opened. The curator Ochiai came to take a walk in the park.

The museum opens at 08:30 am, and the employees usually go to work at [-]:[-], and the curator Ochiai always comes around [-]:[-].

Along the way, the curator introduced to Fu Jiang the division of posts in the art museum, that is, the exhibition department responsible for exhibitions and coordination, the exhibition affairs department responsible for transportation and arrangement of exhibits, and other departments.

Director Ochiai did not introduce in too much detail, but only briefly introduced the responsibilities of each department.

Because the art museum will be closed in about half a month, the former owner decided to transfer the art museum to the current owner because of insufficient funds.

However, the current boss, who is well-connected and rich, does not intend to abide by the contract, but to close the art gallery and open a restaurant, so Fu Jiang will only work here for two weeks.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, Tomie and the curator Ochiai walked to the art museum, and the time just happened.

Seeing that Ochiai had come, the security guard unlocked the main entrance and greeted him, "Morning, curator."

"Oh, you guys are early too." Curator Ochiai leaned over and introduced, "This is Tomie Acacia, a new staff member of the exhibition department."

"Oh, hello." Seeing that such an elite young man was going to work in this art museum that was about to close, the security guard was a little surprised for a while.

In their view, people like Fu Jiang are either executives of large companies or gold medal lawyers of some firm.

Those piercing eyes and a mouth that seems good at debating or ordering people may seem difficult to use when you're in charge of moving fine art.

"Hello, gentlemen." Fu Jiang twitched the corners of his mouth again.

After Director Ochiai took him around and introduced him to different ways of handling artworks, other employees of the museum also arrived one after another.

"Iijima." Curator Ochiai stopped a man with a serious round face and introduced Tomie's identity to him.

After that, he looked at Tomie and introduced: "This is Kosuke Iijima, who is a member of the exhibition department like you."

"Hello, Senior Iijima." Tomie greeted politely.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Tomie." Iijima reached out and shook his hand, "Next, I will take you to familiarize yourself with the work and responsibilities of the Exhibition Department."

During the conversation, Fu Jiang learned that there is currently no person in charge of the exhibition department, and because the museum is about to close, most of the staff have already found another way out.

Only some people who either really love the museum or have other purposes stay here.

What Fu Jiang has to do is to pack the removed artworks and hand them over to the vehicles responsible for transportation within the last ten days of the art museum.

"Oh, that's right." Iijima glanced at the man with high cheekbones and a thin face walking towards him, "You must pay attention, you must not touch the artwork without wearing gloves, because..."

"Because the oil stains on the hands, sweat stains and other dirt will produce chemical reactions and damage the exhibits. After all, the exhibits here have been corroded by the years and are very fragile." Fu Jiang pushed his glasses and took the words.

"Although there is only less than half a month left in the art museum, I am not here to eat and drink."

A smile appeared on Iijima's face, "You are an excellent young man, and there are fewer and fewer people like you in this era."

After a few more casual chats, Tomie put on white gloves and organized the artwork with Iijima.

Then he found an excuse to go to the bathroom, and then went around to the monitoring room. There was no one in the monitoring room. Fu Jiang turned off the monitoring and cut off the power, and then ran all the way humming to the hell exhibition room of heaven's punishment.

It is dark here, perhaps to simulate the environment of hell, or simply to protect the ancient paintings that are not suitable for light.

On the inner wall of the hell exhibition room, there is a huge painting nearly five meters high, which depicts that in the canyon at sunset, the tall steel armored knight nailed the devil to the mountain with a cross sword and turned away scene.

"God's punishment..." Fu Jiang was careless, he didn't know that the painting was so huge.

His original plan was to put the painting into the inventory and then take a look at the system introduction, but it was obvious that it was difficult to hang the painting back up with his own strength.

He let out a sigh of relief, turned and returned to the monitoring room, and called Koizumi Hongzi on the way.

"What's the matter?" Hong Zi answered the phone the first time it rang.

"Is there really a demon in this world?" Fu Jiang asked while plugging in the monitor's power supply and turning on the monitor.

"It was a long time ago. I only saw records in the family's ancient books. With the last demon hunting operation in the middle ages, there is no record about new demons. Why do you ask this?"

"There is a painting called Heaven's Punishment in the Medieval Art Museum of Mihua Town. I find it a bit strange."

"Wait for me over there, don't approach the painting rashly, I'll be right there."

There was a sparse sound of getting dressed on the other end of the phone, and then the phone was hung up hastily.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Iijima had just invited Fu Jiang to have dinner at a small restaurant nearby, when the old butler drove Hongzi here.

"Master Fu Jiang." In front of outsiders, the old housekeeper did not call Fu Jiang an adult.

"Yeah." Fu Jiang nodded slightly, turned to look at Hongzi, "I'll take you there."

"These two are..." Iijima looked at Tomie suspiciously.

"It's my friends. They are very interested in medieval art, especially paintings." Fu Jiang briefly introduced.

"That's it, if this is the case, there is no need to buy a ticket." Iijima whispered, "The museum will be closed anyway, and the owner will benefit from it."

He didn't like the mean and rude businessman very much.

"Thank you." Hongzi nodded gracefully.

"Where, you're welcome." Iijima blushed and scratched his head, "You are Tomie's friends, you should, you should."

The corner of Hongzi's mouth raised slightly, and he followed Fu Jiang to the hell exhibition room, while the old housekeeper waited outside the car.

Seeing Heaven's Punishment, Koizumi Hongzi was obviously stunned, she lightly covered her lips and tried to suppress her surprised voice.

"Isn't this "Blooded Blessing"? It's here?"
