The annual school sports meeting is being held on the playground of Yunzhou No. 15 Middle School.
The athletes' march resounded throughout the playground. The athletes worked hard and fought bravely to be first...
"My mobile phone was confiscated by my wife..." In the equipment room of the sports team, a middle-aged man with disheveled hair and unkempt appearance said to Miao Ying and others, "Because I have been going out to drink these days... "
"Probably not!" Miao Ying said calmly, "You recently spent a lot of money browsing some websites. Your wife must have discovered it, right?"
"This..." The man immediately sweated on his forehead and said with admiration, "You... are really amazing! No, you came to arrest me just for this, right? As for that?"
This person's name is Ma Fei, Zhang Qile's first boyfriend. When Zhang Qile was an intern at No. 15 Middle School, he and Ma Fei had a formal relationship and even met their parents.
But in the end, the relationship ended without a problem. Zhang Qile left school before the end of the internship period and officially embarked on his career as a painter.
"Don't be nervous," Miao Ying calmed down and said, "We are here because there is a case that requires your assistance!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Miao Ying finished speaking, Ma Fei's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Zhang Qile, is it her?" Ma Fei said excitedly, "Is it because of her case?"
"You..." Miao Ying was slightly surprised, "You know everything?"
"Of course I know," Ma Fei said, "She has been an intern in our school, and many teachers remember her! Moreover, she has been in a relationship with me, so... this matter is particularly sensational in our school... "
"Yes," Miao Ying nodded, "You are right, we are here just for this case!"
"Oh, you have come to the right one to come to me!" Ma Fei straightened his back and said excitedly, "These past few days, I have been hesitant about whether to go to the police station to report to you!
"It's a pity that my mobile phone was confiscated by my wife... The school has another sports meeting... "
"Take a look," according to the procedure, Miao Ying opened the photo of Zhang Qile on her phone and asked, "Is this Zhang Qile?"
"Yes, that's right, it's her!" Ma Fei nodded, and then said mysteriously, "Officer, the red bathtub case is considered a legend in Yunzhou. Let me take the liberty to ask, is Zhang Qile really... um... and Hong Is it the same as the bathtub case?”
Miao Ying thought for a moment and nodded lightly.
"Then this thing is really amazing!" Ma Fei swallowed and said mysteriously again, "Did you know? Zhang Qile once painted a painting reflecting the red bathtub case. Unexpectedly, she herself actually Being the protagonist, oh no, the victim... this... this is so weird... "
"Oh?" Miao Ying's eyes widened and she immediately clicked on the picture on her phone and asked, "Is it this one?"
Ma Fei looked at it carefully and nodded vigorously: "Yes! That's it...this one!"
"This painting is really uncomfortable. You don't know that this is just a photo. It would be even more shocking if you saw the painting with your own eyes!"
"You... saw with your own eyes that Zhang Qile painted it himself?" Miao Ying asked.
"Hmm... it seems... not..." Ma Fei recalled carefully and said, "When I saw it, the painting had already been completed. At that time, the Internet had already emerged, and Zhang Qile and her classmates from the Academy of Fine Arts held a commercial art exhibition, and she took them all to All 11 works were sold, including this one!
"I didn't go with her at the time, but I helped her pack the paintings. When packing, I saw this one...
"I remember, I was joking with her at the time! I asked her why she painted such a picture. This was a murder case. Aren't you afraid that it would be unlucky
"But...but..."
After hearing the most crucial part, Miao Ying asked impatiently: "But what?"
"Zhang Qile said that I don't understand art," Ma Fei scratched his hair and said, "She asked me, is this painting particularly eye-catching
"I nodded, because... it was exactly what she said, 11 paintings, and I remember this one!
"It may be that I have been listening to my grandmother and others talking about the red bathtub case since I was a child, or it may be that I was attracted by her paintings...
"I have to say that Zhang Qile's level is really high. No wonder he is now a famous painter!"
"Then... what happened next?" Miao Ying asked hurriedly, "Where did you participate in the art exhibition that painting came from, and who bought it?"
“It’s in the Art Center, I don’t know exactly where in the Art Center!
"At that time, I was too busy at work, and Zhang Qile didn't really want me to go!" Ma Wei recalled, "Looking back now, that commercial art exhibition should be regarded as a turning point in Zhang Qile's life, right
"It was after that art exhibition that Zhang Qile's pursuits and ideas all changed. Gradually... the two of us could only go further and further apart. The different levels destined us to be strangers in the future...
"Actually..." Ma Fei said helplessly, "less than two months after the exhibition, we broke up!
"She went to pursue her life and ideals, while I continued to be my physical education teacher... "
"You haven't answered my second question yet!" Miao Ying reminded.
"Oh, I haven't been to the art exhibition. Of course I don't know who the paintings were sold to, but..." Ma Fei said hurriedly, "Zhang Qile was very excited after coming back from the art exhibition. She told me that all 11 of her paintings were bought by one person. , and the price is much higher than she imagined!”
"A person?" Miao Ying grasped the key point, "The same person?"
"Yes!" Ma Fei nodded, "Zhang Qile said that the person who bought his paintings should be a very rich kid with a Xiangjiang accent!
"She said that the man looked at her paintings for a long time, especially the red bathtub painting, so he finally bought all the paintings without any counter-offering!"
"Then... how much did it cost in total?" Cui Lizhu from the side interjected and asked.
"You don't know Zhang Qile," Ma Fei shook his head and said, "I asked her, and she said the total sale price was 20,000 yuan, but... I later peeked at her bank transfer text message, and it was only a fraction of 20,000 yuan! Her painting sold for 220,000 yuan!”
Hearing this, Cui Lizhu and Miao Ying looked at each other. It seemed that Zhang Qile was indeed very scheming.
"Since then..." Ma Fei said, "I already had a premonition that we were not on the same level, so when we broke up later, I was quite calm and said some blessings, and then we never saw each other again!
"Of course, from that time on, Zhang Qile became more confident in herself. She found that her paintings were appreciated, so her goal became more determined...
"But..." At this point, Ma Fei paused and said sadly, "I didn't expect that she would suffer such a misfortune, and in this way...
"Officer... tell me, could it be... that the person who killed her was the same person who bought her painting!?"
Ma Fei's words were exactly what others were thinking.
Now it seems that this mysterious painting buyer is indeed very suspicious.
After leaving the No.15 Middle School, Miao Ying immediately told Cui Lizhu: "We must find out the identity of this buyer as quickly as possible!
"Tell Zeng Ke that you can search through Zhang Qile's contacts and transaction records. Zhang Qile likes rich people. She may have been in contact with the mysterious buyer for so many years..."
