Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 226: Pink Lion Diamond

"Mr. Curator, I must remind you that a group of people are already eyeing this museum, so I ask you to let me take care of that treasure..."

On the corridor leading to the director's office in the New York Museum, two people were walking in tandem.

Walking in front is a thin old man in a suit and leather shoes, who is the curator of this museum.

The curator has a smile on his face, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are filled with the words impatience.

Following the curator is a young man with a Chinese character face, wearing a blue half-sleeved sweater, collocation tan pants and brown leather shoes. The most important thing is that he is of Chinese descent.

Different from the curator's expression, he was full of anxiety, hoping that the curator would pay attention to what he said.

Although he himself knew exactly how absurd his words were.

Asking someone to give the treasure to yourself, let alone a treasure, no one would agree to a stone.

So much so that the curator didn't even plan to talk to him all the way.

As for why he was not driven out, it is mainly because this young man is a very famous archaeologist. In recent years, many unearthed cultural relics have passed through his hands and then donated to the museum free of charge.

Provides a lot of collections for the museum.

Not to offend young people too much, this is the curator's inner thoughts.

But no matter what, even if these collections were dug up by you, they are now the property of the museum. It is absolutely impossible for you to take it away!

You also made up a lot of lies to deceive yourself, what mysterious mafia or magic items, you are an archaeologist anyway, and you don't know how to find a reliable excuse.

The curator seemed to have seen through the youth, but he didn't break it.

Young people are full of enthusiasm at the beginning, just thinking about making a meritorious career, so they can donate the cultural relics they find regardless of payment.

It will take a few years to realize that these are all false. The famous feat is to take off your pants and fart. The real benefits are real.

Regret now, know the preciousness of cultural relics, do you want to take things back?

It's a pity that if you want to return the things you left off, the price you pay is not ordinary.

It is against the law to hold cultural relics without authorization. It doesn't matter whether anyone abides by this law. In the final analysis, it exists. As long as this law exists, I can sue you for bankruptcy at any time, even if I don't want to benefit.

In a word, I take your benefits for granted. If you squeeze my wool, you will be dying.

This is the power and nature of capital!

The owner of the museum shook his head in his heart.

It's just... what are the characteristics of the treasure he just described?

Forget it, I didn’t listen to him seriously just now, I just remember that it seemed very precious...

The curator thought for a while. He had just collected a priceless pink diamond in the front of his museum, and the young man on the back came to ask for the treasure. If there is no contact, he would definitely not believe it.

The young man did not know that his image in the heart of the museum owner had become a crappy liar who coveted gems.

He is still eloquently warning the curator of what a terrible organization the Mafia is, and danger will come to the museum at any time.

However, although he was relatively slow in observing people's minds, he could also see that the curator did not seem to cooperate with him.

"Hey, it seems that I can't convince the curator anymore."

The young man thought with disappointment, but since the curator did not explicitly refuse, there is still room for negotiation. ,

It is not his character to give up if he doesn't work hard at the end.

Finally, the two walked to the door of the office.

The curator secretly sighed, why is this guy still not leaving? Does he want that big diamond so much? As expected, money is what moves people the most.

Starting from entering the museum gate to find himself, and then touring the museum, he wandered all over the exhibition halls and returned to the office. This person was actually persuading himself non-stop.

For a moment, he couldn't help being moved by the youth's perseverance.

It's a pity that the sentence is still there, no discussion!

So, after realizing that if he didn't refuse directly, he was afraid that he would be entangled forever, the curator turned around and smiled humanely behind him.

"Mr. Chen, I know you are worried about the safety of the treasure, but don't worry, the museum has adopted advanced protective equipment, no matter whether it is a gangster or a Jiangyang thief, the pink lion diamond can't be stolen."

The owner of the museum patted Chen Long's chest very confidently.

Seeing that the owner is so confident, and thinking that as the largest museum in New York, he must have the most detailed security measures, Chen Long no longer worries so much.

As for the possibility of not being able to get something today, this is not a big deal. If it doesn't work, I ask Sheriff Black to use his authority to get the charm...

and many more?

What did the owner just say?

Pink lion diamond?

It's not right, what I said is obviously a spell!

"No, Mr. Curator, you misunderstood me, what I just said was..."

However, this time the curator did not give Chen Long the opportunity to continue.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, but I have to work now. If you have anything to do, please come to consult another day."

I saw the curator quickly walked into the office and slammed the door shut.

After Chen Long knocked twice, he found that there was no movement, so he had to leave dejectedly.

What he didn't know was that the curator was now complacent about sending Chen Long away.

"This Chen Long's brain is really bad. I want to take treasures from me. For the sake of you giving me so many precious cultural relics before, I can't get rid of it."

"But at least you have to give me some benefits. The pink lion diamond is worth at least hundreds of millions, not too much of my 70-80 million. All the cultural relics you get in the future have to be handed over to me."

"If you don't give benefits, you want something, it's so beautiful to think..."

"The buyers who fancy pink lion diamonds are mostly..."

Thinking about it, the curator felt a little thirsty, and was about to pour a cup of coffee, glancing from the corner of his eye.

Suddenly found that there was a white card out of thin air on the desk...

Walking out of the entrance of the museum, Chen Long looked thoughtful.

"Walloon and the others are sure to get the charm, and they will find here soon. I must send the charm to the 13th district as soon as possible. It seems that I have to do something that I shouldn't do tonight..."

Thinking of this, a trace of determination flashed in Chen Long's eyes.

"Wait, Mr. Chen, don't leave in a hurry!"

Suddenly, Chen Long heard someone calling himself behind him, and his voice seemed to be the curator's.

Looking back, I saw that the curator hurried out of the museum, yelling Chen Long's name constantly.

thump!

Perhaps it was too rush, which caused the curator to accidentally step on the air when running down the door steps and fell to the ground.

Seeing the curator's panic, Chen Long's heart shook.

Could it be that the Mafia has found it, and the spell was taken away by them?

He rushed over to help the curator up.

"What happened, Mr. Curator, did the mafia come here?"

The curator shook his head.

"No, it's worse than that!"
