As soon as Tang Yan finished speaking, Chen Yi froze for a few seconds, frowned, and said seriously: "Mr. Tang, I'm not a painting thief. Don't talk nonsense without evidence."

Of course, Tang Yan wasn't talking nonsense. From Chen Yi's pop-up window, he saw the secret that he had bribed the students in the school to help them steal the paintings.

"I didn't know that the painting was drawn by you, so how could I steal it?" Chen Yi continued, "Since you suspect that I am a thief, there is no need for me to return the painting to you. Give it to Director Cheng."

"If it is true as you said, this painting was handed down to you a few months ago," Tang Yan stared at Chen Yi and said word by word, "Then please tell you, the person who sold the painting to you What does a person look like, and where is the transaction record?"

"I, do I need to tell you this?!" Chen Yi panicked for a while, "I just want to return the painting to you..."

Tang Yan sneered, and said: "Of course it is necessary. You said that this painting was stolen a few months ago, so I have to call the police to catch the thief, and you are a witness. You must explain clearly. .”

Chen Yi swallowed his saliva, his face was a little nervous, but he pretended to be calm and said, "I can't remember what he looked like. The money was given in cash and there is no record."

"There is always contact information?" Tang Yan slowly raised his coffee cup and took a sip, his tone unhurried, "If you don't have these, then I have to suspect that you are a painting thief."

Chen Yi originally thought that Tang Yan would ignore these details because of the loss of the painting, but he didn't expect that he would hold on to himself, thinking that he was a thief, so he stood up angrily and said to Tang Yan: "I deleted it a long time ago. Tang Yan, don't spit on people."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left with a hasty expression, as if he was a different person from before.

After Chen Yi left, Tang Yan carefully recalled whether he had met him before, because he always felt that Chen Yi looked very familiar.

Since he knew that the four paintings were Tang Yan's works, he must have seen Tang Yan's paintings before. Coupled with his familiarity, Tang Yan came to a conclusion: this Chen Yi was probably a student who had been in the studio before.

After getting off work, Tang Yan took out his undergraduate graduation photos, rummaged through them carefully, and soon found Chen Yi in a photo.

"It turned out to be a student from the major next door..." Tang Yan looked at the graduation photo thoughtfully, "Then he must have seen me when I was painting those three paintings and learned that Cheng Yao was looking for my whereabouts. Let the people in the school look for the fourth painting in the studio..."

Tang Yan quickly figured out Chen Yi's motive and method of committing the crime.

The problem now is that he has no direct evidence to prove that Chen Yi is a painting thief, and he doesn't know what Chen Yi will do next.

At this moment, Tang Yan's cell phone rang, and Cheng Yao called him.

After connecting, Cheng Yao asked: "Mr. Tang Yan, can I ask if what Chen Yi said is true?"

"Ah?" Tang Yan was taken aback, "What did he say?"

"Chen Yi said that he spent 3 yuan to buy the fourth painting from you a long time ago." Cheng Yao paused, and then continued after a while, "He said that the fourth painting is his personal item, he wanted to use it in exchange for my 100 million bounty, but you backtracked and did not agree with him to do so."

A look of surprise flashed across Tang Yan's eyes, he couldn't believe that Chen Yi actually bit him back.

"I never sold the fourth painting," Tang Yan said with a frown, "That painting was never finished."

"Didn't finish the painting?" Cheng Yao was stunned, and he came back to his senses after a while, "But, he has already photographed the fourth painting and sent it to me. The painting style is indeed your style, and the level is also very good. high."

As Tang Yan guessed, Chen Yi not only stole the painting, but also used this time to complete the content of the painting.

Tang Yan only painted the upper half of the spring river bank map, and the lower half was blank. In theory, Chen Yi could indeed imitate his style and finish the lower half.

"Director Cheng, please trust me," Tang Yan took a deep breath and said slowly, "I have never sold a painting. I only finished half of that painting, and it was stolen not long ago."

Cheng Yao has a good impression of Tang Yan because his collection of works is very good, and Cheng Yao has admired people with artistic talent since he was a child.He chose to believe Tang Yan, and said to him: "In this case, I will ignore him for now, Mr. Tang, you have to find evidence as soon as possible, otherwise many people will misunderstand you."

After Tang Yan agreed, he hung up the phone.

Chen Yi obviously couldn't hold back anymore, and not long after, he posted a photo of the fourth painting in his circle of friends, and filed a complaint against Tang Yan's "doing": "When I bought the painting, I did It only cost 3 yuan, but since it was sold to me, it is my item, right? Why does Tang Yan refuse to admit it now, and still slander me for stealing his painting?"

Many of Chen Yi's friends who didn't know the truth expressed surprise after seeing the Moments he posted.

"Fuck, is there a reversal in this matter?"

"Tang Yan sold the painting for 3 yuan, but he wanted to take it back for the reward of 100 million yuan. Am I right?"

"My God, he can't do that. I had a crush on him."

Chen Yi said that he was very wronged, replied to these comments one by one, and said that he would defend his rights.

Soon, this circle of friends was screenshotted and submitted to a marketing account by someone with a heart, and the photo of the fourth painting was also sent out.

Chen Yi himself is an art student. Although he has changed his career to become an actor, he still has some skills. No matter how bad he is, he can also know other people who can draw. With the first half of his works, he only needs to imitate the composition of other paintings and imitate the spring river bank Drawings are not difficult.

This painting has reached the point where it is false.

Even professionals in the industry will think it is Tang Yan's handwriting when they see this painting for the first time.

Therefore, for the content of Chen Yifa's circle of friends, many people expressed moral condemnation to Tang Yan.

"At first, I thought he was handsome when he slapped Huang Chen in the face. It turned out that the fourth painting was not released because it was sold."

"If you sell it to someone else, it's someone else's. Why are you still thinking about the 100 million reward?"

"It's really unkind to go back and forth like this."

Of course, some rational people said that before the truth comes out, they should not stand in line for the time being, so as not to be slapped in the face.

In order to find evidence, Tang Yan made a special trip back to the school. Indeed, as Gu Yao said, the monitoring of the studio did not work during the few days when the painting was lost, and he seemed to be unable to find any other evidence.

Xu Jiuyan felt anxious for Tang Yan when he saw the ups and downs, so he said to him: "How about I hire a private detective for you, as long as there is enough time, the painting thief can always be caught."

"There's not enough time." Tang Yan sighed, "Chen Yi has already tried to bite me back, if I still can't produce evidence, then he must benefit in the end, and the crew of "Drawing Demon" may end up using that painting. "

At this moment, Xu Jiuyan suddenly thought of something, and said to Tang Yan: "The monitoring in the studio is not working, but the monitoring in other places may be useful? For example, there will always be places such as the school gate? As long as the suspect can be found, Maybe it will show its feet."

Tang Yan was awakened by Xu Jiuyan's words.

Tang Yan quickly went to the school, explained his purpose of coming, and asked the security room to assist him in the investigation.

The security room felt that this matter was still very serious, so it pulled out several surveillance recordings from the school throughout the year to help Tang Yan search together.

They targeted those students who had returned to school early, and eventually found a suspect in the group.This person returned to school very early, and happened to be a student of the art department. On the day after returning to school, he hurriedly left the school gate with a scroll of paintings.

Combining the positions of the various surveillance cameras together, it can be seen that he has indeed passed a necessary path from the school gate to the studio.

After finding the suspect, Xu Jiuyan wanted to call the police immediately, but Tang Yan stopped him and said to him, "Before I arrest him, I have to prove one thing."

"What's the matter?" Xu Jiuyan looked at him with some confusion.

"The painting that Chen Yi sent to Moments was not drawn by me," Tang Yan said, "or rather, I only drew a small part."

"It's hard to prove, isn't it?" Xu Jiuyan looked at him and said, "They all think that painting is very similar to your style."

Tang Yan opened Weibo, passed it in front of Xu Jiuyan, and said to him: "Public opinion has begun to ferment, many people are scolding me, and I started to receive private messages from Keyboard Man again. Although I don't care about these, after all... I'm not a very nice person."

"So," Tang Yan took back her phone and started typing on the screen, "I have to shut up these idiots before the results of the police investigation come out."

Xu Jiuyan leaned over to read what he was typing curiously, and then slowly opened his eyes wide.

After the "Fruit Beer" account experienced a slap in the face of Huang Chen, the number of fans increased. In the past few days, because of Chen Yi's false accusation against him, many trolls have appeared again.

This time, the fruity beer didn't stay silent for as long as last time, but directly posted a Weibo.

The content is as follows: "Please think rationally, and don't be deceived by Chen Yi's lies. I only painted the first half of that painting, and it was lost later. As for how Mr. Chen got the painting and finished it in imitation of my style, Only he knows that."

Soon, people who questioned him appeared in the comment area, asking him to produce evidence to prove it.

Tang Yan posted a picture of the four-square grid on Weibo. The first picture is blank, and the next three pictures are the river bank pictures of the three seasons of summer, autumn and winter.

"The four pictures are spliced ​​together in a clockwise direction, forming a complete river, while Chen Yi's painting cannot be put together in the upper left corner." Tang Yan added such a text.

It was only at this time that everyone discovered that the three pictures of Jiang'an that they had been worshiping all along had such a mystery!
