At one point, Rohan becomes interested in the painting and decided to visit the Louvre to see it. He learns that Under the Moon is in the abandoned Z-13 storage room of the museum which used to contain works of art but was emptied because of threats of flood from the Seine. Rohan, Gaucher, a translator named Noguchi and two firemen went into the Z-13 room and discovered the painting, but only Rohan survived the encounter.
