Bai Mo······
Lu Wan also has another identity. She is a close disciple of Public Security Bureau Chief Bai Yonghui. Bai Yonghui was the captain of the criminal police when she joined the team, and he has been Lu Wan's master since then.
It stands to reason that since Lu Wan and Bai Yonghui have such a good relationship, she should see Bai Mo often, but in her memory, the only time she met Bai Mo was ten years ago.
Bai Mo was only ten years old at that time, and that day was the Spring Festival. Bai Yonghui agreed for the first time to Lu Wan to go to his home to pay New Year's greetings, and then he met Bai Mo.
After that year, Lu Wan never saw Bai Mo again.
That year, Bai Ju's wife Tong Yongshi was retaliated by criminals and died in a car accident. Bai Mo, who was only ten years old, lost his mother.
Since then, Bai Yonghui has been extremely protective of his family, and no one has ever seen his family again.
Lu Wan also knew that Bai Mo went abroad to study five years ago. No one knew which country he went to or what major he studied. Perhaps this was Bai Yonghui's protection for Bai Mo!
Bai Mo is a genius in portraiture. He could recognize Lu Wan at just one glance after not seeing her for ten years.
This reminded Lu Wan of the details of when Bai Ju's wife was killed.
When the crime occurred, only Bai Mo and Tong Yongshi were killed. The murderer fled the scene after hitting and killing Tong Yongshi. There was no surveillance nearby, but Bureau Bai accurately identified the murderer within a day.
Thinking about it now, Bai Ju should have obtained the portrait provided by Bai Mo, so he was able to catch the murderer so quickly.
However, out of protection for Bai Mo, Bai Ju never mentioned the origin of the portrait.
Lu Wan let out a long breath. It would be a pity for such a portrait master to not be a police officer.
Meihai City is still in the development stage. Tourism has increased the flow of people in Meihai City, but the corresponding criminal investigation measures are very imperfect, such as the Sky Eye system that a big city should have.
Take today's crime scene as an example. The nearest road surveillance is five kilometers away. As long as the murderer is not blind, he can easily avoid surveillance.
Lu Wan learned a lot in Kyoto this year, but she knew better that many advanced investigation methods would not work in a small city like Meihai City.
But if there is a powerful portrait artist like Bai Mo, it seems that many problems will be solved easily.
Compared with surveillance, every pair of eyes in the vast sea of people can record facts, and an excellent portrait artist can turn these facts into pictures.
But, will the chief who has been protecting his son let him become a policeman?
······
At the same time, in the Public Security Bureau building, in the director's office.
Bai Mo leaned on the sofa and looked at the decoration in the room. He considered himself an artist. From an artist's point of view, the decoration in the room was too ugly.
Bai Yonghui placed a cup of hot water in front of Bai Mo and sat opposite him.
"Two days ago, I begged you to come to the police force as a portraitist and you didn't come. Why did you suddenly agree today?" Bai Yonghui lit a cigarette and looked intently into Bai Mo's eyes.
As the most powerful detective in Meihai City, Bai Yonghui did not believe in any coincidence, even if it was his own son.
Bai Mo picked up the water cup, looked down at the steaming green tea in the cup, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"I helped you solve a case today. I found that you were right. My portrait can speed up the detection of many cases." Bai Mo said.
Bai Yonghui sneered, took a puff of cigarette and said, "I said this on the first day you came back. I don't think this is the reason for you to join the police force."
Bai Mo rolled his eyes and said no more. He blew on the water glass and took a sip of tea.
When the tea went down his throat, Bai Mo frowned and murmured: "What's so good about this tea? Don't you have any coffee here?"
It seemed like a normal chat, but Bai Yonghui firmly believed that Bai Mo was changing the topic.
In Bai Yonghui's heart, Bai Mo is the person he cares about most. Bai Mo has been abroad these years, and the two have rarely contacted each other. Because of this, Bai Yonghui wants to find out all Bai Mo's thoughts.
"Speaking of yesterday's case..." Bai Yonghui smiled at Bai Mo, "I heard that you were very calm when you saw the corpse in the morning. Don't you see corpses abroad?"
"I have painted portraits of some deceased people." Bai Mo explained, "It is considered voluntary work in our school! Overseas, some people who died in accidents did not even have photos of themselves. Those who were burned to death, those who were hit to death, and those who were drowned Damn it, I’ve seen all kinds of death.”
Bai Yonghui thought about it for a moment, nodded slowly, and asked with a smile: "What about Lu Wan?"
Hearing Lu Wan's name, Bai Mo looked up at Bai Yonghui in surprise, with a puzzled look on his face.
In Bai Yonghui's eyes, he felt that Bai Mo's behavior was abnormal. With a fatherly smile on his face, he said meaningfully: "I heard that you have been peeking at Lu Wan since you arrived at the scene, and you can't bear to let go." leave."
Bai Mo rolled his eyes and vaguely understood what his father meant. He didn't reply, but scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Lu Wan is 36 years old, right? She's married and her daughter is in elementary school." Bai Yonghui looked at Bai Mo and said slowly.
Bai Yonghui hid half of his words. He also wanted to tell Bai Mo not to have any evil intentions.
This is also the reason why Bai Yonghui questioned Bai Mo's sudden agreement to join the police force.
Lu Wan is indeed very beautiful. Even at the age of 36, she is still recognized by the police as a beauty. Bai Yonghui believed that his son was not a lecher, but he was worried about Bai Mo's views on mate selection.
Bai Mo can be regarded as losing his mother when he was young. When he was young, Bai Yonghui was focused on work, so Bai Mo lacked maternal and paternal love when he was growing up.
Even though Bai Mo never showed any abnormality, Bai Yonghui knew that his mother's death left a huge scar in Bai Mo's heart. In the cases that Bai Yonghui has handled, many murderers grew up in environments similar to Bai Mo's, so he is particularly concerned about Bai Mo's psychological condition.
To put it bluntly, Bai Mo hasn't had a girlfriend yet. Bai Yonghui is worried that there is something wrong with Bai Mo's view on mate selection. The biggest factor is his lack of maternal love.
At this moment, Bai Mo lowered his head again, which made Bai Yonghui feel that his guess was right - Bai Mo had some inappropriate thoughts about Lu Wan.
"I haven't seen Sister Lu Wan for a long time. I just looked at her a few times." Bai Mo explained.
Bai Yonghui's evaluation of this explanation has only four words - pale and feeble.
After identifying this problem, Bai Yonghui felt relieved. He knew Lu Wan very well, and Lu Wan would definitely be able to help him correct Bai Mo's psychological problems.
"Let's go!" Bai Yonghui stood up, "I'll take you to report to Lu Wan."
After saying that, Bai Yonghui turned around and walked out the door.
The moment Bai Yonghui turned around, Bai Mo let out a long breath silently, with a smile on his face.
This smile is like a child's lucky smile when his lies are not exposed!
In front of this well-known veteran detective, Bai Mo used silence to complete his lie - the reason why he joined the police force was not Lu Wan at all.
