According to the address left by the other party, Gu Huaiyu took An Jiu with him. Although Meng Xiaotao also wanted to follow, Gu Huaiyu stayed there because the shop couldn't be empty.
In the end, Meng Xiaotao's protest was invalid and was retained.
Ye Qing's place is not far from their antique shop, and the bus is only two stops there.
However, although this area is also part of the city center, it is not as prosperous as the streets around antique shops. On the contrary, it is a bit deserted and not many people live here.
Gu Huaiyu didn't know exactly what was the reason, but it gave her an uncomfortable feeling.
The same is true for An Jiu.
Since entering the community, he has been in a state of high tension and seems to be on alert at any time.
The address left by Ye Qing is one of the innermost buildings in this community.
I searched for the house number, and finally found it in front of a house that looked obviously dilapidated. The house number of this house is not clear enough. If I didn’t see someone on the road, I asked for a few words, I guess it’s still It's really hard to find.
After counting the number of floors, it finally stopped on the sixth floor.
Knocked on the door of the sixth floor, and there was no echo inside. After several consecutive times, Gu Huaiyu confirmed that no one would come to open the door, so she took violent measures.
Pry the door.
The locks on houses in this old-fashioned residential area are the kind of locks that are particularly easy to open and easy to open.
Within a short while, Gu Huaiyu opened the door.
As soon as it was opened, there was a very strong smell of rust inside. It smelled like the whole room had been soaked in blood, and the smell was very heavy.
Gu Huaiyu frowned and walked in.
An Jiu stayed at the door, because the smell was quite irritating to him, so in order to avoid discomfort, he stayed outside to watch the wind.
Gu Huaiyu walked in all the way, the room was not big, it was just an ordinary two-bedroom and one hall, but the furnishings inside were very messy, as if someone was constantly picking up things around them and slamming them at a certain place.
At the door of one of the rooms, Gu Huaiyu found the mobile phone that Ye Qing had left on the ground, but the door of the room was tightly closed.
Gu Huaiyu knocked twice, and there was still no sound inside. Finally, she tried to push the door to enter, but found that the lock of the door was broken, and she entered the room easily.
The situation inside the room was worse than that outside. Everything fell into place, and she even found blood stains in several places.
The blood stains were still fresh, and they seemed to be the kind that didn't last long.
But these are not the main points, the main point is the painting hanging on the wall.
In this narrower room, the painting seems a bit too abrupt, and what is even more bizarre is that the content of the painting has changed.
But this change is not particularly big, it's just that there is one more person who can't see clearly.
Gu Huaiyu recognized that this was Ye Qing's clothes through the clothes on the other party's body.
Because Ye Qing was shocked by the painting during this period, the clothes he wore were all casual. The reason Gu Huaiyu was particularly impressed with his clothes was probably because there was a big spider on the back of his red clothes. Bar.
The main reason was that the spider's pattern was so realistic that she even looked at it twice.
Gu Huaiyu took the painting down, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Qing, who was standing at the gate of the castle, disappeared, as if he had entered the castle.
She reached out and knocked on the oil painting, but there was no other change, giving people a kind of ordinary oil painting.
She didn't know if it was her illusion. She felt that the color of the river water on the painting seemed to be darker and more crimson.
Gu Huaiyu took the painting out of the house and took it out. An Jiu immediately covered his nose in disgust.
"What's the matter?" Gu Huaiyu asked.
An Jiu looked at the painting with disgust, and replied, "The smell inside is too strong. The smell in the room just came from here."
He said this for sure.
Gu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows without saying anything.
"Let's go, go back to the store to see how to solve this problem."
According to her guess, Ye Qing should be still alive now. After all, the person said before that he would come to pick him up three days later. Now it was two days earlier. It is probably because Ye Qing found himself, and the other party was afraid that Ye Qing would run away, so he brought him ahead of time. Go inside the painting and wait for the third day.
But Gu Huaiyu needs to bring people out before that. As for the means, he still needs to study.
Back in the shop, Gu Huaiyu put the paintings on the floor casually, looked at Meng Xiaotao who was tinkering with something unknown, and exclaimed, "Go and help me get the third drawer of the room drawer."
Meng Xiaotao responded, and then put down the things in her hand, took the things Gu Huaiyu wanted, and then held her chin and watched with interest.
Gu Huaiyu picked up one of the utility knives, made two gestures on the oil painting, and finally found a breakthrough in an inconspicuous corner.
Carefully cut away the slightly raised side, and then slowly tore off the things hidden on the oil painting surface.
Just like this, even Gu Huaiyu could smell the strong smell of rust.
She frowned, holding her breath to remove the thin layer outside, and the oil painting finally revealed its original appearance.
The general appearance of the oil painting has not changed much, and even the layout has not changed. The only difference is that in the entire oil painting world, there is something like a thin red blood mist, and the small stream before is now exposed. True face.
The stream was still bright red, like a bloody water, and in the middle of those streams, there were some white skull-like things floating in it.
There are even some exposed outside, looking terrifying.
Meng Xiaotao was already speechless in surprise, and An Jiu hid away before Gu Huaiyu started.
Gu Huaiyu's expression didn't change that much. She seemed to have known what was going on inside.
She put down the utility knife in her hand, looked at the painting for a while, and said, "Mitchell Lambeau's paintings have a habit. In one painting, she always likes to hide another painting."
Not many people know about this matter, and those who know are also reluctant to start to get rid of the outer layer of paintings, so only a few know what's going on inside.
She picked up the painting, and after carefully examining the situation above, she took it to her room and hung it up.
Meng Xiaotao was a little worried, and followed, "Boss Gu, this painting is a bit too wicked. Will he appear if he does this?"
Gu Huaiyu gave a hum, and said casually, "Try it first, I don't know if it will work."
