Three people and one ghost solved 43 mysterious cases.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Yuan Fugui was in the suite of the five-star hotel, soaking in the bathtub, drinking ice-cold Maotai, and thinking about the case.

A call came from the guest room, saying that a man named Fatty was waiting for her in the lobby lounge.

Fat guy? What is this person doing?

Yuan Fugui changed his clothes, went to the lounge, and saw the fat man.

"Long time no see. Beautiful Inspector."

"Is there a problem?"

The fat man said that he actually came here on Xu Wenshan's orders.

Xu Wenshan submitted his resignation report, but the director of the serious crime team refused to approve it, "Hey, Lao Xu, you are in his forties. This is a joke. I will retire in two years. I have already recommended you." , you will become the youngest chief of the Major Crime Squad."

Xu Wenshan smiled and said, "I am indeed a little tired from doing it and want to go outside for a walk."

His girlfriend, Yao Ruolan, has been dead for 22 years. After her death, Yao Ruolan refused to "meet" him. He could only learn about Yao Ruolan's current situation from the fat man's mouth.

Should he let go of this longing he has held on to for 22 years?

Xu Wenshan decided to leave K City.

The chief of the crime squad said, "Hey, don't think about anything. Go on a long vacation first and then decide after a month."

Xu Wenshan agreed, and he left K City. Before leaving, he asked the fat man, "The most capable person in the crime team now is Yuan Fugui. If she encounters any difficult case, I hope you can help."

At this moment, in the hotel's high-end lounge.

The fat man shook the ice-cold Maotai in the cup and said, "Inspector Xu has specifically told us that we will start cooperating from now on."

Yuan Fugui knows the skill of the fat man, a ferryman who knows the magic of Dunjia and can open the door to the Yin and Yang world.

She also collaborated with a fat man on one case, her uncle's "Button Murder", but that case was decades past and she didn't understand the situation at all, so she paid the fat man for help.

That case was a family matter, but the next case was different.

As a police officer, it is her job to handle the cases at hand.

Yes, it's easy to find a fat guy to investigate the case.

As long as you get to the underworld, let the deceased resurrect for 4 minutes, and tell who the murderer is, the case will be solved in minutes.

But this is too incompetent.

Yuan Fugui said to the fat man, "Thank you for your kindness. Regarding the case in hand, I still have to rely on my own reasoning to catch the murderer myself."

"I know that you and Xu Wenshan are equally stubborn. They look alike." The fat man chuckled, "But sometimes it's not a bad thing to listen to the demands of the deceased."

The fat man said that the dead are already dead, go find them and understand their last wishes.

The relationship between pursuing the murderer and dying in peace, clearing one's grievances and fulfilling one's last wish are equally important.

The fat man said, you don’t have to spend money anyway, I am also volunteering to help. After catching the murderer, I will also help the deceased fulfill his last wish. Only in this way will the case be considered complete.

The fat man raised his glass again.

Fine. Yuan Fugui thought and picked up the wine glass.

At this time, she suddenly saw a painting hanging on the wall of the lounge, "Hedgehog Girl". Yu Meng's painting was a printed imitation.

Yuan Fugui looked at the painting. In the painting, the red-haired girl stood in the dark night mountain. On the cliff behind, stood a strange man standing in a tall building with spikes on his body, holding a torch that symbolized light and hope.

That "weird hedgehog" and that painting actually reminded Yuan Fugui of another unrelated painting——

It was the imitation of the "Mona Lisa" painted by Chen Liang that she hung on the wall of the village chief's house in the small mountain village where Chen Liang lived.

Why does this association occur? When my thoughts opened up, many clues came in again——

Four years ago, Yu Meng met Chen Liang.

Four years ago, Yu Meng's "Hedgehog Girl" came out.

Today, Yu Meng has been worried about having no inspiration and wants to find inspiration. Today, Yu Meng's hands are shaking badly.

Could it be that there is another, more secret truth?

Yuan Fugui said to the fat man, "Can you help me find Chen Liang in the City of Missing and ask him a question."

After hearing this, the fat man clinked the wine glass in his hand with Yuan Fugui's wine glass and said, "Wish us a happy first official cooperation."

.

The city of longing.

There is a white stone beside the lake, and not far away is a small house with lights on, the door of which is ajar.

Yao Ruolan walked to the small house and looked in through the crack in the door. There was a small man sitting on the ground, Chen Liang.

His hair was long and messy, spread over his face, and he was concentrating on painting on the canvas with a paintbrush.

He first drew a red-haired girl, and he painted it very quickly. It only took more than ten minutes to complete the red-haired girl.

He was too familiar with this character. It was someone's request that the subject of the oil painting must be a red-haired girl.

After finishing the painting, he began to concentrate on constructing the picture he wanted.

He painted the night sky black and drew flaming arrows in the night sky, like a rain of fire all over the sky.

The picture gradually became clear. Behind the red-haired girl stood an ugly weirdo with arrows falling from the sky stuck in his body.

His body was bleeding, but his mouth still had a "weird" smile.

It's not a weird smile, it's just because the weirdo is so ugly that the world thinks it's weird.

For Chen Liang, who created this painting, the weirdo he painted is trying to face setbacks and smile bravely.

The reason why the "Hedgehog Girl" series of paintings are charming is not because of the sharp contrast between the ethereal girl and the ugliness of the weirdo.

For Chen Liang, weirdos, weirdos who are inconspicuous in the dark, are the themes he most wants to express.

Longing for beauty, but always living under the control of the red-haired girl, this is the story of "The Hedgehog Girl".

As a mind reader, Yao Ruolan understood the meaning from the painting.

She opened the door, walked behind Chen Liang, squatted down, and said, "Chen Liang, can you tell me who killed you?"

His thoughts about painting were interrupted.

Chen Liang turned his head and looked at Yao Ruolan. His pupils suddenly dilated, and he began to breathe heavily, clenching his fists with angry veins.

"Chen Liang, what's wrong with you?"

"Painting! I painted the painting!" he shouted.

"I know that you are the original author of Hedgehog Girl."

"Hehe." He said excitedly, "It's me! It's me."

Chen Liang's tone of voice was very strange, like a crazy person.

He stood up, pointed at the dozen or so "Hedgehog Girl" paintings hanging on the walls of the room, and said to Yao Ruolan, "Look! I painted them all."

He was jumping around the house, beating his chest, and was only 1.2 inches tall. He was incoherent and would become very manic as long as he was removed from the world of painting.

He felt a splitting headache, walked to the table, picked up a white medicine bottle, and swallowed all the medicine inside.

It turned out that Chen Liang was unable to talk to others normally, and his reactions were like those of an extremely manic person.

Why? Was he doing well four years ago? How did it become like this?

What exactly happened in these four years?

Yao Ruolan looked at Chen Liang in front of her and saw the paintings of hedgehog girls hanging on the wall, and suddenly realized:

Chen Liang is crazy, and only a madman can inspire terrible inspiration in his brain.

Van Gogh cut off his ear, a madman and a genius, who entered their own artistic world through self-mutilation and pain.
