54 Chapter 54: Art Museum Owner Murder Case 2

Ran led Seiya towards the Earth Room in which has a lot of ancient vases, painting that came from the desert and ancient ruins. Next was the Sky room which has a lot of different paintings about the sky from sunrise, sunset, cloudy, rainy and etc. The Ocean room contains different kinds of painting about the land of water including ships. Seiya didn't feel bored as he took this time to contradict and tease Ran when it comes to perspective of painting. But most of this was a distraction so that she would not focus on the fact that she unconsciously held his hand as she led him to each painting room.

After finishing the Ocean Room it was the Hell room, but when they arrived in front of it's entrance there was a sign saying that it was close. Seiya checked the time as he saw that it was already after lunchtime so he spoke as he pulled Ran over.

"Let's eat lunch, they will probably open this room later?"

"Yea..."

Ran responded as she suddenly noticed that she was holding Seiya's hand, her cheek turned reddish as she thought.

'Ah I didn't notice I was holding Seiya-san's hand....but Seiya's hand feels so warm and comfortable...'

Ran was in the middle of her thoughts as Seiya led her to the cafe restaurant beside the Museum, the waiter who saw the two immediately felt like he knows what was going on as he placed them to the best table which has a beautiful view, Ran felt a little lost when Seiya removed his hand from hers as he sat in front of her. The waiter gave them menu as he spoke about the specialty for today.

Conan who was finding a restaurant to eat since running made him very hungry coincidentally saw the two enter the restaurant this made him go inside as he ordered a kids meal with his pocket money on the opposite corner. Conan thought while using a newspaper as a cover.

'is Ran dating this guy? No maybe there is a good explanation... I need to investigate more."

Conan doesn't believe Ran would date Seiya as he began pry upon their business by sliding a bug mic on the floor close to their table as Seiya and Ran ordered their meal, Seiya spoke while staring at Ran who was currently look around.

"So did the rooms inspire the art inside you?"

"Well, it did make me feel like I want to draw something."

Ran didn't know why but she avoided Seiya's gaze as Conan's thought while he sighed in relief.

'So they went to the rumored museum, I knew Ran wouldn't date this guy. She just wanted someone to accompany her.'

After a few minutes, the waiter placed their meal on their table as Conan received his kid's meal that contains a big burger steak with vegetables and carrots. His spoon and fork has a kid's drawing of a cowboy wearing a green hat, he didn't notice it since he was very hungry as he devoured the kid's meal that he ordered. After eating their meal, Ran led Seiya towards the Hell Room in which they saw that the sign was gone but the room was still dark and gloomy. Seiya heard a droplet sound on the floor as Ran carefully look at the nearest painting that is lighten by a small bulb.

Ran slowly moved from painting to painting until she saw a blood picture which seem realistic. A man pierced in the neck by a long sword, Ran spoke in surprise.

"Seiya-san look at this art, it is so realistic that the blood is .....still dripping?"

Seiya turned his head around as he saw Ran watching the murder scene like it was an art. He was speechless as he immediately pulled Ran over as he covered her eyes. She pouted while asking.

"Seiya-san why are you covering my eyes?"

"*cough* Ran, you just witness a "Real" Dead man pierced by a medieval long sword."

"Ah, I see....Wait WHAT?!"

Ran exclaimed as she began to tremble while remebering the scene, Conan who heard Ran's shout immediately ran towards the Hell room as he saw Seiya pulling Ran while covering her eyes. He immediately shouted while rushing to attack Seiya.

"What are you doing to Ran?!"

"Eh Conan?"

Ran seem to hear Conan's voice but Ran was ignored at this part as Conan jump as he was midair trying to kick Seiya on his stomach, Seiya immediately took off his hand from Ran's eyes as he put it around Ran's waist as they twisted like switching places in a dance ballroom. Conan who missed immediately hit the dead guy stuck in the wall as he realized he misunderstood the whole situation. 20 minutes later, Inspector Megure leading his police squad including Miwako went inside the Hell room as he greeted Seiya.

"Good Evening Seiya-kun. It looks like you guys were unlucky to witness a murder scene..."

"Indeed, but it is not only one murder scene. Because the medieval armor at the corner seem to be bleeding."

Conan who was sitting in the hell room entrance hallway was rubbing his head as he received a big hit on the head made by Seiya for trying to attack at him. Ran didn't protect or coax Conan after she heard what happened while her eyes were covered. Ran ignored Conan while she waited beside Seiya. Miwako Sato who saw Seiya beside Ran didn't know why but she felt like her heart was a bit sour and jealous as she didn't greeted Seiya as she moved and check the bleeding Medieval Armor in the corner.

Seiya felt like the situation became more unpredictable because the two dead bodies inside the hell room was Kubota, a Staff of the Museum and the Museum Owner Manaka, he frowned as the plot was suppose to contain only one dead person which was Manaka the Museum Owner. But now there were two people dead people in this crime scene, Miwako spoke as she saw multiple slash and stab wounds in Kubota's Body after removing the body from the armor while Manaka the Museum Owner only had a stab wound between his neck.

"Inspector, The one who killed Mr. Kubota seem to have a prejudice against the victim." -Sato

"I see, what do you think happened Seiya-san?" -Megure

"I have to see the staff and the director of this museum before making an assumption, I have a feeling this case is very complex than the usual murder case."

Seiya spoke in a solemn tone as he stared at the broke camera in the ceiling and the wall that has multiple slashes, this time his hunch was telling him something supernatural was really going on in this murder case.
