Establishing the Teyvat Organization in KO
Chapter 20: Encounter at the Art Museum
The library where Lisa works.
"Little cutie, how come you have time to come to see your sister today? Don't you usually stay away from me?" Lisa asked with a smile when she saw the traveler who suddenly appeared.
"No way." Xia Xi did not admit that she had any intention of hiding from Lisa.
"Oh~ So you have nothing to do with me, little cutie? Then do you want to stay for afternoon tea?" Lisa sat on a chair in front of the bookshelf, propping up her head with one hand, and said to Xia Xi casually, "This kind of weather is perfect for a rest."
"Well... Actually, I still have something to talk to you about." Xia Xi looked away with a guilty conscience, but soon turned her eyes back and skipped over the previous topic. "But this is not important, let's talk about it later. I came here today mainly to ask Lisa if you found any drugs in this library?"
Xia Xi remembered that the director of the Beika Library seemed to be involved in drug trafficking and even killed a person in order to cover up the matter. Of course, all this was revealed after Conan arrived.
But there is no news of missing library staff, which means that the director has not killed anyone yet. But drugs are definitely involved, but if you want to catch him, you still need evidence. Without actual evidence, no one will believe that the director secretly transported drugs.
Therefore, Xia Xi came to Lisa today mainly to see if the curator had hidden drugs in the library recently, and whether he could be caught in the act. If he could be caught, then he could try to see if the world quest would be refreshed. In this way, maybe Conan would not necessarily appear in the future, and Xia Xi could complete the world quest by herself - as for asking Lisa for help, that was just by the way.
But Lisa's answer shattered Xia Xi's beautiful expectations -
"I'm sorry, little cutie, no." Lisa also felt a little regretful. "The book section I'm mainly responsible for is related to biomedicine, which is quite far from the children's reading area and not very convenient to go there. Later, I also found a few opportunities to go there to take a look, but maybe because the director was on vacation recently, I didn't see any special books. Sigh - what a coincidence."
"Ah——" Xia Xi also sighed.
"Pfft." Lisa couldn't help laughing when she saw Xia Xi sighing with a sad face, "Are you in such a hurry to complete the task, little cutie? Don't worry, sister will help you. It's not good to sigh like this. The task is there, and it can be completed."
Xia Xi was also a little embarrassed: "Well, I know."
Xia Xi just had a little high expectations at the moment, but found that she encountered setbacks at the very beginning and was a little disappointed for a while.
But what Lisa said just now was right, the mission was there, there would always be a way, if it really didn't work, the worst that could happen was that she would keep an eye on Conan more and follow him to complete more world missions, and there was still no sign of the main mission.
Seeing that Xia Xi was no longer dwelling on the setback, Lisa smiled and changed the subject, "By the way, little cutie, is there anything else you want to talk to me about? I don't believe you came to me just to ask me this question - you can just send me a message for this question, there's no need to come here in person."
"Ah? Actually, I'm here to invite you, Lisa, to go to the art museum with me today." When Xia Xi heard Lisa's question, he told her the second purpose of looking for Lisa.
Xia Xi had just heard a rumor near her residence that the armor in the Medieval Art Museum could walk on its own. She immediately thought that this was obviously the art museum murder case in the original work, and the murderer was also the director, but he was the director of the art museum.
This incident was committed by the museum director in revenge against the treacherous new owner, who had originally promised to continue running the museum, but after buying the museum changed his mind and wanted to turn it into a hotel.
In fact, Xia Xi felt that he did not deserve death. He had bought the art museum, so no one else could control what he wanted to do with it. Even if he broke his promise, he did not sign a contract and did not violate the law, so he could only be condemned morally. But this boss was too arrogant. He kept mocking in front of the museum staff, and especially belittled the art works in front of the curator who loved art works. Isn't this just courting death?
"Oh~ Is it the case in the Medieval Art Museum?" Lisa also thought of this case immediately. There was no way, this case was one of Conan's more impressive cases in the early days.
"Yes." Xia Xi confirmed Lisa's guess, "Today when I was chatting with Xiaolan, she said that she was very interested in this rumor and would go to visit it with her father and Conan. So I am sure that the case in the art museum will happen today, so I will definitely go to the art museum to take part in this world mission."
"Then you little cutie can go by yourself. There's no need to ask your sister to go along, right? I want to go back home early to rest after get off work." Lisa yawned and asked curiously.
"It's a bit strange to go to the art museum alone. What if Conan thinks I ran into them by chance and starts to suspect me?" Although she did "run into them by chance" on purpose, and Xia Xi really didn't want to visit the art museum alone and looked a little lonely, she was too embarrassed to tell the truth, so she had to make up an excuse.
Originally, Xia Xi wanted to find Xiang Ling, but Xiang Ling was busy running a store and had no time. When she asked Elhaisen, he replied that it was inconvenient due to his identity. Xia Xi didn't know what was inconvenient for a scholar. Now only Lisa had time and a suitable identity.
Lisa looked at Xia Xi's expression, not knowing whether she saw her true thoughts or not. She did not refuse and agreed with a smile: "Okay, sister, I will sacrifice my rest time to accompany the little cutie. You must thank your sister~"
"I know. Thank you for your sacrifice, Sister Lisa. I'll treat you to a meal later, okay?" Xia Xi was speechless. Who was she doing this for? It was all to complete the mission, for everyone. Don't act like it was just for her. Although she thought so, Xia Xi was still very happy that someone was going with her.
Lisa leaned back in her chair, looked at Xia Xi's happy expression, and said, "Then I look forward to your thanks."
Not long after, it was time for Lisa to get off work.
Xia Xi and Lisa arrived at the art museum at around 4 o'clock.
After entering the art museum, Xia Xi found that the works in this museum were quite beautiful, and the exhibition planning was also good with the works divided into different areas according to different categories. I don’t know why there were so few visitors in the original work, but only recently because of the rumors about walking in armor, there are more people visiting.
"Xia Xi/Sister Xia Xi——"
Xia Xi and Lisa had just visited an exhibition hall when they suddenly heard a familiar voice behind them. Turning around, they saw that it was indeed Maori Ran and Conan calling her, and Maori Kogoro was standing next to them.
Xia Xi originally thought that she would have to walk around for a while before meeting them, but she didn't expect to "run into" them so soon. She and the protagonist seemed to have a connection.
