What happened
Today's job: Help a delivery boy near the gallery door. Bigger story: A long flat box tilts in Nikhil's hands as the delivery boy loses his grip. Nikhil saves it from the road. The boy says gallery workers often send real paintings to a locked storehouse near the market. He points to the box, which bears the same old crack mark Naina described. Nikhil looks through the gallery door and sees the same mark on the fake.
