卢浮宫午夜窃影
by Xnoval Originals · Mystery · 100 chapters · complete series
Guxiu wields a broken sword not for combat, but as an unerring oracle for authenticity. After a catastrophic loss of reputation, he descends into the shadows of Europe’s elite museums, infiltrating vaults to retrieve stolen cultural treasures from the black market. His journey is fraught with danger, crossing paths with Elena, a cunning black-market broker who deals in secrets as much as gold, and the icy arrogance of Marcus, a powerful banker whose greed drives the illicit trade. With the aid of Sofia, an idealistic curator who provides vital intelligence, and Victor, a slippery yet loyal master thief, Guxiu assembles an unlikely team. As they outwit security systems and decode historical mysteries, Guxiu’s status transforms from disgraced scholar to legendary figure. Every heist raises the stakes, blurring the line between restoration and theft, as he fights to return humanity’s lost heritage to the light.
