After narrating for forty minutes, Li Wen finally finished speaking and told all about his contact with the "painter" over the past three years.
From his experience to his appearance, he talked a lot and provided the profiler with a lot of useful material.
After he finished speaking, Li Xin stood aside and slowly finished tracing the outline of his chin. Then she put down her pen and said, "Sir Li, the portrait is out."
Li Shaoze had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He immediately turned to look at the drawing board, but when he saw the portrait, his brows suddenly knitted together.
"Sir Li, do you know him?"
Li Xin'er is indeed a psychology major, and she can actually see something strange about Officer Li at a glance.
There is a face in the portrait, with a round forehead, thick eyebrows and big eyes, which clearly looks like "Brother Ma".
Is the painter Xiao Ma?
Dry! Xiao Ma seems to be really good at making counterfeit money!
He won't return to his old profession, will he?
Li Shaoze was shocked, but his facial expression immediately softened: "It's a bit familiar. I may have seen him before."
"Um."
Li Xin'er nodded and didn't take it to heart.
Sir Li has been in the police for so many years, so it is not surprising even if he accidentally saw the information about the "painter". Are there too few criminals with criminal records? What's more, she would never take the initiative to explore any of Sir Li's secrets.
At this time, Li Shaoze picked up the sketch from the drawing board, pointed at the face on it, and asked Li Wen: "Is there something wrong? Is it him?"
Li Wen's brows twitched when he saw this portrait, his expression looked very frightened, his lips trembled slightly and he nodded: "Yes, he is the painter!"
"Yes." Li Shaoze nodded and stared at Li Wen seriously. He found that using his mind-reading ability, he could only read two words "fear".
He shook his head, stopped exploring, took the portrait and turned around to leave the interrogation room.
Ruan Wen, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said, "Officer Li, can you let me go?"
"No, let's wait until we catch the person."
Li Shaoze turned and left without looking back.
Li Xin'er packed her things, glanced at them quietly, and followed behind them silently.
When the two of them walked out of the interrogation room, Superintendent Zhang came up from the side and asked, "Sir Li, what's going on?"
"This is the suspect's portrait. You take it and investigate it first. I'll make a call."
"good."
Superintendent Zhang took the phone, looked down and found that the "painter" looked really majestic. No wonder "Li Wen" was so afraid of him!
Immediately afterwards, Superintendent Zhang took the portrait to the Information Department, intending to search for any suspicious persons.
Li Shaoze came to the corridor, lit a cigarette alone, took out his mobile phone and dialed Brother Xiao Ma's number.
Toot toot.
Although the two have not contacted each other for many years, their numbers have not changed.
After a short waiting tone on the other side, the call was answered immediately.
Hai Feng's voice sounded on the phone, along with Ponyboy's brisk tone: "Hey, Officer Li, I heard that you have been so prosperous recently, why do you have time to call me, Ponyboy?"
Given the huge disparity in status between the two, there is indeed little need to contact them. So after Xiao Ma saw the incoming call reminder, he paused for a few seconds and exchanged colors with Song Zihao next to him before he dared to answer the phone.
Alas, now he and Song Zihao are having a BBQ on the beach in Hawaii. The beautiful and leisurely life is not very pleasant. I was afraid that if I answered Li Shaoze's call, I would get into big trouble.
There is no way, there are always some people in this world who have their own dangers.
Wherever you go, something happens.
Li Shaoze smiled and asked in a relaxed tone: "It's okay. I heard from Ajie that you are short of money recently. Do you want me to give you something?"
"Who is short of money?" Brother Ma looked stunned, then his heart thumped, and he thought to himself: "Sure enough! Sure enough, trouble is coming!"
He twitched the corner of his mouth, picked up a skewer and said, "Who is short of money? I don't know how happy I am!"
"Sir Li, if you have anything to say, just say it and don't beat around the bush. My pony has also been around for a while. What words can't be heard and what things can't be kept secret?"
"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth." Li Shaoze glanced left and right in the corridor. After a waiter walked away, he asked in a low voice: "Xiao Ma, have you and Ah Hao returned to your old business in the past few years? ?”
"I investigated a large counterfeit banknote syndicate, and the boss behind them looks very much like you."
Brother Ma was chewing the roast meat in his mouth, his expression becoming more and more ugly as he chewed. After hearing this, he begged with a bitter look on his face: "Sir Li, stop joking."
"I finally quit the world, how can I return to my old career?"
"It must be some street kid trying to trick me."
Li Shaoze sneered and said, "Okay, your words are enough."
"I'll take care of it for you."
"Sir Li, please."
Before Brother Xiao Ma finished speaking, Li Shaoze simply hung up the phone.
The reason why he made this call was actually because he didn't believe that Brother Ma would return to his old career. First, Xiao Ma Ge and Song Zihao have withdrawn from the world for many years, and the "Painter" Group has begun to take shape many years ago. If it was a seamless connection, the two of them would do it together, but "Li Wen" didn't mention Song Zihao's existence at all.
The second reason is Ajie. Ajie is now a powerful newcomer in the police force. As long as Xiao Ma Ge and Song Zihao are not stupid, they will not take advantage of their younger brother.
You know, Ajie's current income is not low, and he still has an account in Tianze Securities. If they are short of money, they don't need to make counterfeit money, they can just open their mouths.
Third, there are many people who look similar in this world. If you have the face of Pony Ma, does that mean you are Pony? He also said it was Xiaozhuang!
…
"Sneeze." In a villa in Paris, Xiaozhuang, who was breastfeeding his child, suddenly sneezed and all the sneeze hit his son's face.
"Ouch, baby, don't cry."
Xiaozhuang quickly took out a tissue and stepped forward to wipe his son's face.
Time flies so fast, the former killer Xiaozhuang has turned into a gentle dad.
His wife "Jenny" has been cured of her eye disease and had her corneas re-transplanted. Now when I heard the noise in the baby's room, I quickly ran out of the kitchen with a spatula and cursed: "Xiao Zhuang, why did you make your son cry again?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Look, isn't it already okay?"
"I just have a cold, a cold."
"You see you deserve a beating!"
"No, no, it may be that an old friend misses me, sorry, sorry."
Xiaozhuang was sweating in his heart, and his tone of voice was trembling.
Married women are tigresses and should not be messed with or messed with.
love? All stayed in the same bar! Now there is only a man and woman who eat and drink in an extremely vulgar way.
…
Hawaii beach.
Brother Xiao Ma threw away the barbecue iron picks, installed his mobile phone, and said in a hurry: "Brother Hao, let's go for a quick walk."
"Trouble is coming."
Song Zihao took his time and looked at his expression with displeasure and said, "What are you afraid of!"
"If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows."
"We haven't done anything. The more anxious you are, the more you look like a thief."
Although he didn't listen to the entire conversation between Brother Ma and Sir Li just now, he could probably guess that there was some trouble on Hong Kong Island.
Brother Ma shook his head and explained: "You don't understand, someone is making counterfeit money under our name."
Oops.
Brother Ma has already guessed the whole story.
But Song Zihao remained very calm, picked up the salt and pepper shaker, turned the bottle mouth twice, and seasoned the kebabs on the iron plate.
Just listen to his nonchalant sermon: "Did Sir Li say I could help you with it?"
"said."
"Then go on vacation, don't worry!"
Brother Hao is worthy of being Brother Hao, and he is not afraid of anything.
Xiao Ma was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "You are the eldest brother, you have the final say!"
…
General Administration.
After Li Shaoze finished making phone calls and smoking cigarettes, he had just returned to the Interpol Department. Superintendent Zhang came forward with the investigated information: "Sir Li, we compared the portraits."
"There are two people in the police database who are very similar to the portrait. One is nicknamed Xiao Ma and the other is nicknamed Xiao Zhuang. They both lived in Hong Kong Island before and both can speak Cantonese."
"But Xiaozhuang used to be a professional killer, and his current whereabouts are unknown."
"Xiao Ma was involved in a counterfeit banknote syndicate case. He used to be a member of a counterfeit banknote syndicate in Hong Kong Island. Later, he helped you... help the police solve a case, and then went to live in the United States."
Superintendent Zhang stopped talking and took the initiative to hand over the information to the officer in front of him.
Both of these people have good experience in the police force. As long as they hit the keyboard, the results will be available in the database immediately, so there is no need to spend too much time investigating.
Among them, Xiao Ma is the most suspicious!
However, Superintendent Zhang did not say these words.
If Sir Li does not allow the Interpol Department to continue the investigation at this time, I am afraid that rumors will spread in the police force immediately. Sir Li will not let others catch him stupidly.
So, after reading the information, he smiled and said, "Xiao Ma is the biggest suspect. You can do whatever you want. I'll go to the interrogation room to take a look."
"good."
Superintendent Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately turned around to do something.
Li Shaoze, holding a cup of coffee, pushed open the iron door of the interrogation room again, stood expressionlessly in front of the table, and looked at the two people in the interrogation room quietly.
If Xiao Ma is not the "painter", then there are two possibilities left. One is that the "painter" is someone else and is not in the police database, and the other is that there is no "painter" at all and Li Wen has been making up stories.
Although Sir Li has used the ability to read minds, Li Wen has some mental problems. I don't know whether he is too good at pretending or taking the wrong medicine. He can only read the emotions of "fear, fear".
Fortunately, Sir Li also has a trick to test the opponent's quality.
I saw that he decisively activated the ability of "psychic manifestation"... A pair of eyes suddenly appeared in the dark interrogation room, and the field of vision immediately turned into a thick black screen.
A figure in a white shirt, with watercolors on his face, is drawing on a whiteboard with a colored pen.
As if he sensed being watched, Li Wen, who had been lying with his head down, suddenly straightened up.
The painter in the black screen also turned his head and looked at him with a dead face.
Li Shaoze smiled slightly, the double pupils in his eyes disappeared, and he saw the paintings on Li Wen's drawing board. Like Li Xin'er, he is also drawing the profile of "Brother Ma".
Ouch.
Li Wen is such a good painter!
The painting makes Brother Ma really look like the God of Gamblers!
