Roaming in the world of film and television

Chapter 263 Wu Xin and the Antique Clock
It was a paper airplane. Because it got into the gap of the iron frame in the middle of the skylight glass, it was not wet by the rain or blown away by the wind. However, due to the long-term exposure to the outdoors, the paper felt very old.

He unfolded the plane and found that it was actually a sketch. Although the lines had been distorted, he could still recognize the characters in the painting from the outline and face shape.

Nguyen Van.

Of course, this is not Ruan Wen's self-portrait, and it is definitely not Luo Wen's manuscript. Who are the people who often come to this place?

It seems that only Li asked.

Just like in the last scene of the film, he should often observe the woman in the studio through the skylight.

The vast majority of painters... No, even those who know a little bit of painting skills will spare no effort to leave an impression of their beloved woman/man on the drawing paper.

"what are you doing?"

A voice sounded at the entrance of the corridor.

Lin Yue looked back and saw Ruan Wen walking out slowly. It must be that she hadn't gone back for a long time, so she was a little concerned and followed.

Lin Yue handed over the drawing paper.

She held it in her hand and looked at it.

"Is it me?"

Lin Yue nodded.

"It was folded into an airplane and thrown out, but unfortunately it didn't fly too far, and got into the gap of the skylight. The creases on it meant that it was crumpled into a paper ball by hand before being folded into an airplane."

Ruan Wen sat down near the eaves, staring at the drawing paper in a daze.

"Drawing you means that he likes you. After painting, he crumpled the drawing paper, which means that he knows that there will be no result with you, or he sees you dating Luo Wen from the skylight, and feels inferior and self-pitying. Later, he puts the painting Folding paper into an airplane and flying it should be a compromise with reality."

Ruan Wen didn't say anything, he refolded the drawing paper into an airplane, and waved it lightly along the wind direction.

The piece of paper rode the wind across the high wall, crossed the railway tracks, and sank into the grass over there.

"There's a problem here."

Lin Yue walked up to her, looked at the sunset and said, "If Li Wen is a painter, you can understand why he didn't dare to face it until he found a way to make super counterfeit banknotes, because he can't realize his personal value and has no self-confidence. But when he finds out how to make super counterfeit banknotes Why are you still ashamed of yourself after using the method? If I were him, after earning enough money, I would find a way to clean up and turn into a successful person who knows your story and your paintings to approach you. What would you think at that time? he?"

Ruan Wen remained silent.

Lin Yue continued: "If it is said that Li Wen's inferiority complex when facing you comes from criminal behavior, a person with a conscience, why is he so familiar with murder and arson? I still remember that I went to the city police when you were resting at the hotel at noon. Is it the matter of requesting assistance from the Bureau? I checked the scene investigation report of the murder of seven central bank guards, and there are indications that the 'painter' is not the first to do this kind of thing."

Ruan Wen remembered the conversation between the two when they were still in Qindao: "Didn't you say that Li Wen is not a painter?"

"Yes, only Li Wen is not a painter can explain the conflict between his outlook on love and outlook on life."

Lin Yue seems to be sharing his own thoughts, but he is actually complaining about the collapse of the main characters in "Wu Shuang".

Ruan Wen patted himself on the right side: "Sit with me for a while."

Lin Yue walked over and sat down.

She watched the sunset sinking into the horizon bit by bit.

"I never knew that the sunset seen here is so beautiful."

Lin Yue stretched out his arm, staggered the thumb and index finger of his right hand, holding half of the sunset in the sky with his fingers.

"what are you doing?"

"Keep it in your heart."

Ruan Wen smiled: "You really shouldn't be a policeman."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you have an unruly heart."

……

Lin Yue and she went back to the hotel after the sun went down. They ate something casually in the evening. The next morning, they drove to Chinatown and came to the antique shop where Wu Xin bought antique clocks.

The boss is a Chinese in his 60s. He is a little deaf, so he can hear clearly when he speaks louder.

After Ruan Wen entered the store, he walked to the antique shelf where the blue and white porcelain plates were placed, and carefully studied the brushwork of the ancient painter. Lin Yue revealed his identity to the boss and asked him about Wu Xin's coming here to buy an antique clock three years ago.

Although the old man was deaf, but he had a good memory, he let Lin Yue sit on the sofa in the middle, poured him a cup of tea, and sat down to tell the story of what happened that day.

About 10 minutes later, Lin Yue pushed open the door of the antique shop and got into a car parked by the side of the road.

Ruan Wen noticed his puzzled expression.

"What's wrong? Is there no harvest?"

"On the contrary."

"You still look frowning when you have gained something."

"Because I can't figure it out." Lin Yue said: "The owner of the antique shop said that when Wu Xin came in, he immediately fell in love with the antique clock from the late Qing Dynasty and paid 300 US dollars to buy it. , but I didn’t expect to go to the bank to exchange currency three months later, and found that the 300 US dollars were all fake bills, and finally provoked the federal police. First of all, according to the boss, Wu Xin did not hesitate after taking a fancy to the antique clock. Pay US dollars in cash; secondly, all 300 US dollars are counterfeit.”

"Do you know how ordinary people use counterfeit banknotes? Mixing one or two counterfeit banknotes with real banknotes can reduce the probability of being discovered, and it is best to use old counterfeit banknotes. Ordinary people understand the truth, as Wu Xin People in the industry don’t understand? Besides, this is an antique shop, and the people who run this kind of shop have much better eyesight than ordinary people, so Wu Xin is so sure that the fake US dollars in his hand can fool the owner of the antique shop?”

"Li Wen said in his confession of the 'painter' that Wu Xin repeatedly emphasized how important it is for those who make and sell counterfeit banknotes to abide by the rules, and also warned him not to meddle in his own business, as long as he is a technician, he should be calm and do his job well The work will not cause trouble to the upper body, such details are most likely not made up, so why did the master who was teaching newcomers to obey the rules a few days ago violated the rules a few days later? And from the narration of the owner of the antique shop It can be known that Wu Xin didn't hesitate to buy an antique clock, so you think the whole thing is weird?"

Ruan Wen said: "It's very strange to hear you say that."

"There are more strange things in the future."

Lin Yue took the document bag in the back seat, took out a document from it and handed it over.

"what is this?"

"Customs declaration."

"Customs declaration?"

"Do you see what is written in the delivery address?"

"HK... Fuyuan line?"

"Yes, Fuyuanhang, the antique shop that Wu Xin, the old man of the 'painter' group, used to deceive others. The things bought with counterfeit banknotes were sent out through regular channels, and the delivery address was still his own antique shop. How stupid a thief would do it to this extent?"

"You mean..."

Lin Yue nodded: "I suspect Wu Xin did this on purpose."

"Intentionally? Why did he betray his companion?"

"I don't know either." Lin Yue said, "Do you still remember Wu Xin's family of five being killed in MO?"

"remember."

"I suspect that their deaths are not just 'painters' upholding the rules, but also an element of revenge."

Lin Yue turned the car key and started the engine.

"In the dictionary of the 'painter', using counterfeit banknotes made by himself is tantamount to endangering the safety of his companions, but what about what he did in the Golden Triangle? With a few people against a heavily armed army, how can he put his companions' lives at risk? Land? In the final analysis, the so-called rules are nothing but a manifestation of his personal will."

After Lin Yue finished speaking, he stepped on the clutch, shifted gears and accelerated to leave the side of the road, turning around and driving back.

Ruan Wen looked at his profile and said, "Where shall we go next?"

Lin Yue looked ahead and said, "It's where I'm going."
