Kirsch's Private Meeting with Langdon
Edmond Kirsch secretly meets Robert Langdon inside a Richard Serra spiral sculpture. Kirsch reveals that he has made a discovery that will change the world, answering the questions of human origin and destiny. He expresses fear for his life, having received a threatening voicemail from Bishop Valdespino after sharing his discovery with the clerics at Montserrat. Kirsch asks Langdon for advice and gives him a coded card (BIO-EC346) for a meeting after the event. Langdon dismisses the danger, but Kirsch remains uneasy.
