Poor Relative 1: Uncle Bangs
Uncle Bangs was a musician, an honest and noble self-reliant man. He likes the art of painting very much. In order to seize the inheritance of the lonely Hambans, some high-sounding people like Camusot, the chief judge of the royal family, tried every means to murder him and would not give up until they achieved their goal. For Pons, collecting famous paintings was a noble hobby; for his wealthy relatives, famous paintings were just a means to make a fortune.
