Keitaro, dressed in his favorite Harris Tweed, stared at the painting with his chocolate brown eyes for several long moments. Finally, he sighed, and turning to the stunning woman behind him, said, "I'm afraid, Ms Narusegawa, that I am unable to find any clue as to what we are looking for from this painting, and I have looked anywhere this Pexiglass wall has allowed me too. Yet, I am sure that I had deciphered the previous message correctly." Once again, Keitaro turned towards the puzzling verse.

O, Draconian devil!Oh, lame saint!

He had been able to see through the anagram immediately, and it revealed,

Leonardo da Vinci!The Mona Lisa!

However, now that he and his "partner" had arrived in front of the most famous painting in the world, Keitaro was not so sure anymore. Sure, he was the top symbologist in Tokyo University, and he had cracked some of the most ancient puzzles known to the world, personally walked on the path of illumination, but it was just in luck that he had to been in Paris to give a speech on some of the common symbols in art and literature. Now, he was stuck in the most wired room in the entire Louvre, struggling to decipher a not so ancient puzzle that had forced itself into his face, all the while a powerful policeman outside thought that he was visiting the toilet.

From behind him, a surprisingly calm voice rang out, but as sure as was that he was wearing a Harris Tweed, he could tell that the person he had just addressed was keeping a very tight leash on her true emotions. He turned back, and a vision greeted him. God, the woman was beautiful! She had an oval shaped face, long luscious brown hair, nice full lips, and the most gorgeous shimmering green eyes. She was slender, but he knew that she was not weak, and was probably in the pink of health.

"Mr. Urashima, I'm afraid that I will have to show you something that will explain why you are here today. In my haste I had forgotten all about your feelings. I realize that I had pulled you here from the toilet without explaining what I was supposed to tell you, and it might explain why you are here today."

"Sure thing" thought Urashima. "Might explain why you pulled my out of the toilet."

Narusegawa reached into her pocket, and proceeded to pull out a photo that looked eerily familiar…
