Chapter 32 - Chapter 32 : Mystery of the Living Painting.

Officer Andrew, who was on duty that day, was shocked to find that the prisoners were no longer in their cells. He immediately checked all the detention cells, but he could not find Rojan, Polo, or Delvi.

"My God, where did they go? How could they suddenly disappear?" said Officer Andrew in surprise.

Then other police officers arrived and began searching for the whereabouts of Polo, Rojan, and Delvi. They were also stunned by the prisoners' disappearance.

"This doesn't make any sense! This cell was locked and tightly guarded by the police. How could they possibly open this detention cell?" Officer Andrew said in confusion.

"Sir, please take a look. The bars here have been bent. It looks like they used great strength," said one of the officers inspecting the scene.

"That's impossible! This cell is reinforced with special steel meant for dangerous prisoners. Until now, no one has ever escaped from here unless authorized by the police chief!" Officer Andrew explained confidently.

Then Officer Andrew entered his office and checked his drawer—sure enough, Rojan's dragon necklace was missing.

"Someone must have taken the necklace!" said Officer Andrew.

"This is very serious. Because they managed to escape, we could be fired for negligence!" said Officer Andrew.

"In that case, we must start a search and inform Art and his friends to come and help us again!" said Officer Gerrad, another officer.

After the incident, Art and his friends grew restless again, as Rojan, Polo, and Delvi had successfully escaped detention.

Their mission was far from over.

"I'm so tired of this situation!" said Art and Tommy. "We poured all our ideas, thoughts, and energy into capturing them, but now they've escaped again!"

"It seems true, Art. We must wait for the return of the Cat Angel, because only he can help us with this problem," Tommy suggested to Art.

"I also don't know exactly when the Cat Angel will return. He never told us the exact time. It's all a mystery that's hard to solve!" explained Art.

"Listen, Art, we should just let Rojan and Polo go for now—as long as they don't cause major chaos in this country—while we wait for the Cat Angel to return."

"But what if they do cause chaos in the city? What should we do then?" replied Art.

The two of them sat in silence, thinking about the events, while Art decided to call Avicii and asked him to come to Art's house.

When Avicii arrived at Art's house, he brought a book he found on the street.

Surprisingly, the book had Art's name written on it and contained explanations that left Art stunned as he read.

It turned out that the book was a notebook left behind by the Cat Angel before he ascended to Nirvana.

The book carried a message: that Art was actually a prince who not only had talent in arts and music but was also gifted with a unique natural ability possessed only by him.

This ability would appear under pressure, especially in dangerous situations.

Art turned the pages carefully and read the book:

> "Art, I have left a message in front of your house. I hope you find it.

I must tell you to use your abilities wisely. I almost forgot to mention this when I was still on Earth, as I didn't have much time before I had to ascend to Nirvana."

"You are truly special, Art. All the angels agreed to let you live on Earth, and they have protected you from danger for a greater purpose.

Your mission is to help save others using your unique ability—to manifest objects you imagine when you are in desperate situations."

"Whatever you picture in your mind during a desperate moment will become real and help you solve your problems.

When the time is right, I will return to Earth to save you."

After reading the book, Art and the others were astonished and tried to understand the meaning behind it.

"So you have a special ability, Art. How do you show it?" asked Tommy, curious.

"I don't know either, Tommy. According to what I read, my ability will emerge when I'm under pressure," said Art.

"That's right, Art! Right now we are under pressure—Rojan and Polo have escaped and they might cause chaos again in the city. Quickly, use your ability to capture them!" added Avicii.

"I'm still confused on how to do it..." Art said, still unsure.

"Hmm... no, that's not it!"

"It means you have to truly be in a desperate situation. This isn't it yet. So let's just wait—the talent and ability will appear on their own!" explained Avicii.

In the middle of their conversation, suddenly Art's phone rang.

It was a call from Julia.

Brrrrt... Brrrrt...

"Hello, Julia? Why are you calling me this late?" Art answered.

"Art, I'm inviting you and your friends to dinner at my house. My parents would love for you all to join us!" Julia said.

"Alright, we'll come right away!" replied Art, ending the call.

"Guys, Julia invited us for a dinner gathering at her house. Let's go!" said Art.

Then Art and his friends hurriedly left for Julia's house, riding a Lamborghini.

Meanwhile, Guru was busy painting a masterpiece—a very large canvas adorned with a golden frame.

The painting depicted a female angel. After finishing, Guru placed the painting at the front of his shop.

Guru then remembered his musical instruments, which hadn't been played in a very long time. He uncovered his piano and started playing the classic piano melodies...

As he played, the magical tunes sparked visions in Guru's mind, visualizing future events.

Guru saw that after his death, he would become an angel, and Art would inherit and replace his role. However, Art would constantly be targeted by unknown individuals because he possessed something incredibly valuable—something no one else had.

Suddenly, the painting Guru had just completed came to life and the female angel stepped out from the frame, just as Guru had painted her.

As Guru continued to play, the angel walked behind him.

Then, Guru stopped playing and began to ponder about Art.

Guru planned to give Art his instruments—but only after Art could control his ego, because only then could he wield the magical powers stored in Guru's instruments for so many years.

However, when Guru turned around, he was shocked:

The canvas he had just painted on had turned completely white again, as if no painting had ever existed on it.

"What? Where's my painting I just made?" said Guru, puzzled.

"Ahh, maybe it's just an illusion. I'm often forgetful," said Guru, dismissing the thought.

Guru then closed his shop as it was already late at night.

He quickly headed home to rest.

Meanwhile, the painting he had created truly came to life and began wandering around the city of Venice.
