Everyone in the police force knew that Bai Mo had recently been investigating a hand-painted painting depicting a murder scene.
Zeng Hao's mind was spinning quickly, "I'm going to find that errand boy." After that, Zeng Hao rushed out of the office.
If the first painting was Bai Mo's guess, then this painting presented to him has confirmed Bai Mo's guess in a certain way.
This is the police station, the criminal police team! The other party sending a painting of a murder scene here was a provocation, especially the sentence "Are you looking for me?", which showed that he knew why Bai Mo was looking for him.
In the past week, Bai Mo had imagined similar scenes more than once. He always felt that the other party would find a way to show a painting again, but he did not expect that the other party would send the painting to him.
This means that the other party knows that he is investigating the painting, and the other party has even met him at some point!
Thinking that a pair of eyes might be staring at him in the dark, Bai Mo felt shuddering.
A hand was put on Bai Mo's shoulder, and he grabbed Bai Mo slightly. Lu Wan's voice sounded in Bai Mo's ears, "Calm down!"
Bai Mo nodded slowly and took several deep breaths before regaining his composure.
Examining the painting again, Baimer compared the previous painting and found some commonalities.
"His perspective is always very strange, and he can always find the most suitable angle to observe the deceased." Bai Mo said, "There is also the background of the picture. With his superb hand-painting skills, he can definitely draw the surroundings of the deceased perfectly. The environment, but he uses blurring techniques every time to deal with it, obviously hiding something."
"Is there anything that can prove the identity or location of the deceased?" Lu Wan asked.
Bai Mo didn't answer in a hurry, he fell into deep thought.
Chen Xiaoxiao and others came to the office one after another. Everyone felt that the atmosphere in the office was not right. Lu Wan put her finger to her lips to make a silence gesture. She was afraid that everyone would interrupt Bai Mo's thinking.
Chen Xiaoxiao came to Lu Wan and was stunned when she saw the paintings on Bai Mo's desk, as were Sun Xiaokai and Peng Yuetao.
The second painting appeared, and it seemed that it was delivered directly to Bai Mo.
"I don't think so." Bai Mo said, "The murderer is showing off his hand-drawing skills. From this point of view, drawing the surrounding scenes is also a way to show his ability. After all, he only drew characters. If he can also draw real objects, The painting is like a photo, which better reflects his level.”
"That means that for some reason, he had to blur the background and give up painting the surrounding environment?" Lu Wan nodded thoughtfully.
Lu Wan suddenly had an idea and said slowly: "Old Qin said that there was a fatal flaw in the first painting of the deceased. It was impossible for the deceased to maintain his original gestures after his head was chopped off, so he thought the scene in the painting was fake. Could the murderer be hiding his murderous methods?”
Bai Mo slowly turned back and glanced at Lu Wan. Lu Wan used the word "murderer" to call the other person. It seemed that she already thought this was a murder case, and a serial murder case.
"I don't know." Bai Mo sighed.
As he spoke, Bai Mo scratched his head hard, as if he was annoyed that he couldn't find the reason why the murderer blurred the background.
"Judging from the murderer's tone, he seems to have met you, and knows that you are investigating his paintings, and that you work in the police force." Lu Wan said, "I think we can check the people who came into contact with you on the day of the art exhibition. .”
Bai Mo looked bitter, "There were quite a lot of people I came into contact with that day!"
Later, Bai Mo told everything that happened at the art exhibition that day, including Yang Lu, those who questioned him, and the museum staff.
Normally, Chen Xiaoxiao would have teased Bai Mo and Yang Lu for dating in private, but at this time, she only had the weird hand-painted author in her heart.
"I feel suspicious." Chen Xiaoxiao said, "First of all, it is understandable that the murderer found Qin Peng, because Qin Peng was doing errands, but why did he ask Qin Peng to find Liu Mingxing? It means that the murderer at least knew that Liu Mingxing was from the art museum. staff, and I know that Mingxing Liu will take money to do things."
Hearing this inference, Bai Mo couldn't help but feel a little annoyed because he didn't take this into consideration when investigating.
"There is something even more strange." Lu Wan continued, "The time the murderer sent the second painting is very strange! Bai Mo has been investigating for a week, why did the murderer never send the painting and chose today?"
"Two possibilities." Chen Xiaoxiao replied, "First, the murderer hasn't finished the second painting, so he can't give it away. Second, the murderer didn't find out that Bai Mo was investigating, so he doesn't know who to give it to."
"Judging from the luster of the paint, this painting has been completed for at least half a month." Bai Mo gave professional advice, which also meant that there was only the second possibility left.
"Then how did the murderer know that Bai Mo was investigating this painting?" Chen Xiaoxiao said to himself.
Lu Wan frowned, "Because Bai Mo went to the art museum to pick up the painting on Friday, the murderer should have discovered it at that time. And he considered that Bai Mo might be off on the weekend, so he chose to deliver the painting on Monday!"
Zeng Hao returned to the office, "I found the errand boy who delivered the painting, and he has brought it back. I asked briefly, and he said that someone left the packaged painting at his door last night, with a letter on it. , stating that it will be sent here, and there is a thousand yuan in the letter as a reward."
Zeng Hao took a breath and added, "He lives in Xiacheng District, renting a house without surveillance."
Same trick again!
Bai Mo took a long breath, closed his eyes, and pressed his eyebrows hard with one hand.
Anyone can see that Bai Mo is under tremendous pressure at this moment.
Lu Wan said: "Zeng Hao, you and Xiaoxiao go to the art museum. There must be surveillance there. I want to know everyone who went to the art museum on Friday, especially those who may have seen Bai Mo holding paintings.
Peng Yuetao, go check Liu Mingxing's social connections and see who he usually comes into contact with. The murderer is generous and has good economic conditions. Focus on investigating possible intersections between the two. "
Several people were ordered to leave. Bai Mo stood up and said, "I'm familiar with the art museum. Brother Hao and I will go!"
Before Bai Mo could stand up straight, he was held down by Lu Wan, who pushed him onto the chair.
"You can't go!" Lu Wan said hurriedly.
Seeing that Bai Mo was a little surprised, Lu Wan realized that her tone was too hasty and quickly explained: "We still need to ask Old Qin to come over and analyze the situation of the deceased. Then we will need you to interpret this painting."
"Oh!" Bai Mo felt that Lu Wan was right and nodded in agreement.
After Bai Mo agreed, Lu Wan let out a silent sigh of relief. No one noticed that Lu Wan looked at Bai Mo with worried eyes.
