【Phantom in the picture-03】

Under the moonlight, the three white skeletons seemed to glow with a layer of cold light, which formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding black roses. This picture was extremely strange, and Ke Shaobin couldn't help rubbing his body. Goosebumps, said: "The corpse has become a skeleton, how to confirm the identity? We can't do genetic identification!"

Liu Zhaoqing is a medical student. In his eyes, these skeletons are similar to the models shown by the anatomy teacher, without the slightest fear, he stepped forward and squatted down to take a closer look. After a while, he came to a conclusion and said: "From the shape of the pelvis, one male is "sex" and two females are "sex". Judging from the degree of bone age development, two of them have obvious osteoporosis, and they are older. The other is relatively young. Humans were buried underground and completely turned into bones, and the time of death was at least 2 years."

Xu Yi said with deep emotion: "Brother Liu was a veterinarian dissecting ancient animals in the Ice Age, and in this class he was a forensic doctor analyzing corpses, and he could use gauze to heal our wounds. He's really an omnipotent doctor."

Liu Zhaoqing glanced helplessly; "Don't make fun of me, I can't help it, I can only make up for it!"

Yue Xingwen asked, "Can senior brother tell the cause of death? For example, there are no sharp wounds left on the bones, or the vertebrae of the neck are not strangled?" I usually read mystery novels, and I also know some forensic identification He took a step forward and squatted beside Liu Zhaoqing to observe the human bones carefully.

Liu Zhaoqing immediately concentrated and checked again: "Xingwen really got the point! The three corpses have fractured neck vertebrae, and no scars were found in other places, so it is very likely that these three people are strangled!"

The other students looked at each other when they heard the conclusion.

Suddenly, Xin Yan asked in a low voice, "The corpse is buried in the ground, will it slowly rot, and will the clothes on the body disappear?"

Everyone was stunned when they were asked, but Yue Xingwen quickly realized the key: "I remember that in the course of "Digital Code", the deceased was found in the attic storage room, and the corpse turned into a pile of bones, but the bones still remained Wrapped in the bride's wedding dress."

The picture of the white bones wrapped in the red wedding dress is still fresh in my memory after going through that class.

Liu Zhaoqing said: "Yes, the corpse will rot, but the clothes and fabrics worn on the body cannot all disappear in just a few years. Unless, when the three corpses were buried underground, the clothes were stripped off by the murderer. ."

There were no traces of fabric around the three bodies that Zhang Xiaonian dug up. The only explanation is that the killer took off their clothes when they buried them.

Ke Shaobin said, "Why did the murderer do this?"

Jiang Pingce said calmly: "I guess there are two reasons. First, the murderers hated them so much that they took off their clothes when burying the corpse, which meant humiliating the deceased. Second, the clothes of the deceased were easy to reveal." When some identity-related information is taken off, only bones are left, and the difficulty of reasoning will be greatly increased."

Yue Xingwen praised Pingce's statement and concluded: "The deceased, a man and a woman, had their necks broken. The cause of death was mechanical 'sexual' asphyxiation. The time of death was more than 2 years. Among them, one man and one woman were older, and the other The girls are relatively young. The murderer stripped them naked and buried them in a garden full of black roses, as if they wanted to use their rotting corpses to provide nutrients to the roses. That's all the information we know so far, let's go back to the castle investigation."

Everyone followed Yue Xingwen back to the castle.

Yue Xing Wen said; "Start the search from the second floor."

Climbing up the spiral staircase to the second floor, I saw a painting hanging on the wall at the entrance of the second floor. This painting does not need Xu Feixue to say, everyone knows it, Ke Shaobin excitedly said: "Mona Lisa's smile, Daphne Qi's work, right!"

This world famous painting was recognized by everyone at the first time.

The darker "color" depicts a black-haired woman. The woman in the painting has no eyebrows or eyelashes, but her facial features are not abrupt, but instead gives a very gentle feeling. , She seemed to be smiling, but there was no obvious smile on her face, and everyone felt different when they saw this painting.

If you see this picture on a regular basis, everyone will not feel so scary. But now, in the dark castle, with the help of Xin Yan's alcohol light, suddenly saw such a painting at the entrance on the second floor...

Everyone always felt chills down their spines, as if the eyes of the woman in the painting had been staring at them.

Xu Feixue said solemnly: "Actually, the painting "Mona Lisa" is not that simple. There is still a rumor about this painting - it is said that Da Vinci first painted a version of the Mona Lisa, and then On the basis of the first edition, the portraits of this layer are covered, so, if you look closely, there are actually two faces in this painting!"

Ke Shaobin couldn't help but be curious when he heard this: "The two faces? Where are they? Why didn't I see it..."

Xu Feixue said: "The first face was covered by the face drawn later, and of course it couldn't be seen by the naked eye, but later scholars used computer layers to restore and magnify it several times, and found that there seemed to be another pupil in her eyes. That is, under this face, there is also a first version of the face."

Most painters, if they waste a manuscript, will take a new canvas and write again. If Leonardo da Vinci really painted a version first, and then painted a second one on it, as in the legend, to cover the original characters, then this painting really hides the "second face".

The more people listened, the more they felt that the "hairs" stood up straightwhat does it mean to put such a painting in the old castle?

Just as Yue Xingwen was about to speak, suddenly, in the portrait in front of him, the corner of the woman's mouth seemed to rise slightly.

The corners of the mouth rose slightly, and Yue Xingwen rubbed her eyes carefully, but the woman in the painting remained motionless, and did not make a "mouth rise" movement.

Yue Xingwen asked Jiang Pingce in a low voice, "I didn't see it just now, but the corner of her mouth moved?"

Jiang Pingce frowned and said, "No."

Yue Xingwen looked at the other students and said, "Where are you?" The others shook their heads, "I haven't moved!" Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses and said with a stiff face, "Will the people in the painting still move? scare me!"

Xin Yan said: "Maybe it's the reason why the flame of the alcohol lamp was blown by the wind, creating an illusion?"

Yue Xingwen nodded: "Dao."

How can the characters in the painted paintings move?

It was probably too nervous and the light was dim, so the illusion was created. Yue Xingwen took a deep breath, changed the subject and said, "Continue the investigation. There are two rooms on the second floor. Everyone is divided into two groups. Everyone has an alcohol lamp and pays attention to their feet. Once you find clues, feel free to communicate on the research group channel. ."

13 people consciously divided into two teams, each entering two rooms.

When Yue Xingwen walked to the door of the room, he always felt that someone was watching behind him. He turned around and looked at the "Mona Lisa" oil painting hanging at the entrance. The woman in the painting was motionless. It seemed that it was really an illusion just now?

Reassured, he turned around and entered the house.

Just after they all entered the room, the woman in the painting at the entrance suddenly raised the corners of her mouth, "showing" a weird smile, and then her entire face instantly spun, and a second figure hidden behind the screen appeared. face.

On the face of the second woman, a tear of blood flowed from the corner of her eye.

The team of Yuexing Wendai entered a studio.

There was a blank canvas in the middle of the studio, next to a large box of colored paints, and some abandoned drafts on the ground.

Xu Feixue picked up a few drafts, unfolded them, and said, "It's the drafts of the abstract paintings we saw downstairs. Our inference is correct. The paintings hanging in this castle are all copied works. However, to be able to copy as much as the original painting, the painter's painting skills should be very strong."

Jiang Pingce squatted down suddenly, picked up a long hair from the ground, and looked at Yue Xingwen: "Is it a woman's long hair?"

Xu Feixue looked back and said, "Not necessarily. Many men who are engaged in art like to have long hair to show their 'sex'. There are several boys with long hair in our Academy of Fine Arts."

Jiang Pingce nodded and temporarily saved the hair.

Ke Shaobin asked Xiaotu to take pictures of the scene, and said, "There are a few paintings hanging on the wall here. Let's see what it means?" Pointing to the wall on the other side of the studio, he said.

Xu Feixue walked over immediately and said, "The painting in the middle, Starry Night, is Van Gogh's representative work."

The starry sky with blue and yellow "colors" mixed together is spiral and curved, full of imaginary "colors". The village under the starry sky is looming, and there is a dark-brown flame-like thing towering into the clouds next to it.

Zhang Xiaonian pointed to the black part of the painting and asked Xu Feixue, "What is this?"

"It's a dark brown tree, shaped like a huge flame. Rising to the sky, it represents the carnival of the starry night."

The flaming trees soaring into the sky are placed together with the quiet village next to them. The contrast is very sharp, making the whole painting a bit weird.

Xu Feixue followed closely: "The origin of this painting is also quite special. At that time, Van Gogh had a mental breakdown and was living in a mental hospital for treatment. He painted this painting during the hospitalization. The village in the painting is where his mental hospital is located. ."

Yue Xingwen frowned: "Have you noticed that the paintings hanging in the old castle are very strange. In the "Blackboard" I saw on the first floor before, the painter was sitting on the shoulders of his friends and following the "sex" and "chaotic" painted; "Mona Lisa" is said to cover a second face on top of one face; "Starry Night" is Van Gogh's work during his psychiatric treatment."

Ke Shaobin scratched his head: "These paintings have nothing in common, right?"

Jiang Pingce said suddenly, "Actually."

Everyone looked back, Jiang Pingce said calmly: "The theme of this secret room should be replacement and exchange. In the abstract painting on the first floor, one called "Exchange" uses a lot of gorgeous "color" blocks; the second floor "Mona Lisa", the second face covers the first face, which is equivalent to the latecomer replacing the former; this "Starry Night" hanging in the studio, the trees rising like flames, contrast with the surrounding quiet villages It's stark and seems to be a reminder of the murderer's apparent calmness and inner madness."

Yue Xingwen followed the words: "There is no one in the castle. Among the deceased, one man and one woman were older, and the other girl was younger, very much like a family of three. It is very likely that the murderer wiped out the whole family, and instead?"

Jiang Pingce nodded: "This is just my guess. The current clues can't analyze things in too much detail."

Yue Xingwen said: "Well, we have to find more evidence. Ask the brothers Liu if they have gained anything." After that, he sent a message on the research group channel: "Brother Liu, have you found any clues?"

Message sent but no response.

Yue Xingwen was "confused": "Brother Liu? Brother Xu?"

Lan Yarong typed quickly: "Manluozhuofeng? Qin "Lu" Qin Miao, can't you see the news?"

The research group still only had the words they typed, and no teammates of the other group responded.

The 6 people were still chatting with us on the second floor just now, what happened?

Yue Xingwen's face changed, and he rushed out the door immediately, facing the "Mona Lisa" hanging at the entrance, and the woman in the painting had actually changed her face!
