Chapter 96 Hofen Gallery

Faced with the accusation of Mr. Denison, the ice cream shop manager, Joseph and another young man were confused. Gina, who had always been very cold, took the lead in explaining: "There may be some misunderstandings. This gentleman does not seem to have heard all our conversations."

Conte and the other two lifted the three people from the ground and said: "Maybe there is a misunderstanding, but let's go back to the police station first."

Joseph has performed so many tasks, but this is the first time he has encountered such a situation. He was caught by the police after being reported by ordinary citizens.

"Sir, please listen to my explanation." Joseph said seriously to Mr. Denison.

Denison turned his face directly: "I have nothing to say to the bad guys who destroy the peace."

Here, Conte held his shoulder and said lightly: "If there is a misunderstanding, everything will be solved when we get to the police station."

Joseph looked at Mr. Denison with confusion: "Why is this the case? You should know that we don't mean that."

Unfortunately, Mr. Denison had left without looking back at this time.

Conte said: "The citizens here have suffered too much danger and persecution in the past. They cherish the peace and happiness now, and they will not allow anyone to cause any risk of instability here."

Speaking of this, Conte sighed: "This is the justice, hospitality, and simplicity of our Arkham folk customs."

Gina said lightly: "Officer, do you have any unsolvable problems with hospitality and simplicity?"

Conte smiled slightly: "Maybe."

After that, the three took Joseph and the other two to the police station not far from here.

During the period, the young man gestured to Joseph several times, and Joseph shook his head secretly to indicate that he should not resist.

If they tear their faces with the police like this, let alone investigate the mayor, they will not be able to stay in the whole Arkham.

When the three people were arrested, the East District of Arkham.

The East District is located on the south side of the central district, adjacent to the Miskatonic River.

What is more interesting is that the area called the central district is located on the northeast side of the entire town, which is the least central place.

Although the area of ​​the East District is similar to that of the Central District, it is sparsely populated and has almost no commercial places. The remaining buildings are all ancient buildings from the last era or even the previous era.

Most of these buildings have fallen into disrepair and have become uninhabited ghost houses.

Therefore, the East District is also called the Ghost District by many children because it is too desolate and sparsely populated.

Although it is remote and lonely, it also provides a very good cover and venue for many criminals and criminal activities.

At this time, Hina brought Carrington and Dr. Murthy to arrange some traces and corpses here.

These traces and corpses have been processed by Dr. Murthy, which is very consistent with the work of the Tide Pirates.

This is not an important clue, but an important turning point.

Hina needs the people of the Green Covenant to pass through here and point all the contradictions to the Dagon Cult in Innsmouth.

After everything was handled, Hina smiled and said, "Let's start the hospitality of Arkham."

This is ready, and Murthy and Carrington each go back to do their own things.

And Hina went directly to the current ghoul lord, Danny O'Banion.

In the office, Danny said directly: "I have received the master's order. If you need any help, just tell me."

Hina looked at the gang leader who was once so arrogant, and now he has become a loyal ordinary person of the great mayor. She still felt incredible in her heart.

"Where are Kingston and the other three now?" Hina asked directly.

Danny: "They are now in the Hofen Gallery, investigating Lilith's affairs."

Hina said directly: "Do you have time now? We need to go to see them."

Danny stood up directly: "Let's talk about the plan first."

Hina then told the plan in detail.

Danny frowned slightly: "The master hates them very much. Has your plan been approved by the master?"

Hina nodded: "Yes, this is a plan allowed by the great mayor."

Danny pondered for a moment: "I don't think these guys are qualified to approach the master."

"Danny, you have more experience in this area than me, so you should know that my plan is most in line with the interests of the great mayor." Hina said seriously.

Danny naturally knew the benefits of this plan.

Not only can it easily solve the pursuit of the Green Covenant, but it can also use the Green Covenant as a gun.

"Since the master has allowed it, I have no right to say anything, let's go!"

Then, the two men split into two groups and began to perform their respective tasks.

At the same time, Hofen's gallery.

This is a gallery that displays postmodern and abstract styles. Its owner is named Van Hofen, a writer, art critic and art historian from the capital.

He has no talent in painting, but his novels are very popular.

This gallery has been open for two years and has been in a state of loss, but this loss does not matter to Hofen. He just wants more people to appreciate these paintings that he thinks are priceless.

Of course, some of them are painted by himself.

Because of his business status of not caring about money, this place has gradually become a place for the upper class to stroll around when they have nothing to do. There are quite a lot of people every day, but most of them are those idle ladies.

The painting Kingston was looking at at this time was Hofen's own work.

The painting showed a very abstract ocean, in which there seemed to be a huge shadow, and around the shadow were geometric abstract buildings and various strange abstract creatures.

The painting was called "In the Deep Sea".

"This painting is really well done, and it perfectly shows people's fear of the unknown deep sea." Kingston praised.

Hofen, who was standing by, heard this and his eyes lit up. After so long, he finally waited for someone who knew the goods!

"This gentleman really has a good eye!" Hofen came over to catch the trace and said with a smile.

Kingston looked at the thin, middle-aged man with deep eye bags, glasses and a restrained temperament and said, "The author of this painting must be a very knowledgeable and profound person."

Hofen sighed and said, "Yes! But there are not many people like you who appreciate it these days."

Kingston asked curiously, "I heard that your gallery is the most famous and is often visited by upper-class people. Why does it look so deserted now?"

Hofen said with dissatisfaction, "What else could it be? Of course it's because of the Arkham Flower Club. I don't know what kind of witchcraft Lilith Arkham used to completely attract those ladies. Now those ladies run to her every day when they have time, saying that they are doing fitness and beauty. It's really weird."
