Zhang Zhe stood at the doorway and didn't come in. Seeing Qin Can standing motionless at the end of the bed, he asked curiously, "Brother Can, what are you looking at?"
Qin Can turned his head and looked at him, then raised his hand and beckoned him, "Zhang Zhe, come over and take a look at this painting."
"Ah? What painting?" Zhang Zhe said as he walked in.
Qin Can crossed his arms and raised his chin slightly. "Look at the picture hanging on the wall above the bed. Take a close look at the groom above. Do you think his profile looks a bit like Li Chenyuan?"
Zhang Zhe heard him say that, touched his chin and looked at him carefully, "Brother Can, you know what, it really does look a bit like him."
Qin Can frowned, "But why would this guy hang this kind of painting above his bedside for no reason? This is too inappropriate. Is he planning to get married secretly without telling us?"
"That can't be. Didn't he get a new girlfriend a few days ago and even brought her to us to see? Have you forgotten?" Zhang Zhe said.
Qin Can's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he couldn't help but think, "Is this true? Why can't I remember it?"
"Yes." Zhang Zhe looked at him and nodded. He glanced at the painting out of the corner of his eye and suddenly saw something. His pupils suddenly contracted and he turned his head abruptly to look over.
Qin Can noticed his movements and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Zhe rubbed his eyes, an expression of disbelief on his face, "Brother Can, I just saw the people up there move a little bit..."
Qin Can frowned, "You must be mistaken. How could the person in this painting move? I think you've been staying up all night without sleeping, and you're in a trance."
Zhang Zhe rubbed his eyes again and said, "You're right, I must be having an illusion."
Qin Can patted his shoulder gently and said, "Let's go. We still have to see the third floor."
Zhang Zhe put down his hand and said, "Okay, let's go."
Before turning around, Qin Can looked up at the painting on the wall twice, then walked towards the door.
He had just taken two steps when he suddenly thought of something and stepped back.
Zhang Zhe stopped and asked, "What's wrong, Brother Can?"
Qin Can took out his phone from his pocket, turned on the camera, and took a picture of the painting hanging on the wall. "I'll send it to the master. I always feel that this painting is weird."
Zhang Zhe: “Oh.”
Qin Can sent the photo he had taken directly to Li Shu's WeChat and typed, "Master, please help me look at this painting. I feel like it's weird. I can't put my finger on it. And the profile of the groom in it looks a bit like my friend..."
After sending the message, he put away his phone. After all, Li Shu was still in military training at this time and probably wouldn't reply to him so quickly.
"Let's go to the third floor."
"good!"
…
On this side, the two of them also searched the third floor thoroughly, but there was no sign of Li Chenyuan. They were completely relieved now, as it seemed that the accident they had imagined did not happen.
Qin Can walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside. "I don't know where this guy ran off to. He didn't answer the phone. Forget it, let's go back first."
Zhang Zhe opened the window next to him, put his arm on the windowsill, breathed in the air outside, and thought for a moment, "Brother Can, why don't we just call the police!"
Just as he finished speaking, a cell phone rang suddenly.
Qin Can took out his cell phone from his pocket and looked at the caller ID. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that it was Li Shu calling.
Seeing this, he quickly slid the answer button and said, "Hello, Master."
"Where did you take that picture?" Li Shu's serious voice came from the other end of the phone.
Qin Can's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had a bad premonition. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the phone in his hand, "This is from my friend's house, Master, is there something wrong?"
Li Shu suddenly said, "Did your friend disappear?"
"Yes!" Qin Can's eyes widened, his brows filled with disbelief, "Master, how did you know?!"
"Your friend was sucked into that painting and is getting married there now." Li Shu made an excuse to skip military training and was walking towards the school gate. "Send me the location, I'll be there right away."
"Okay, okay, I got it, Master. Don't hang up, I'll send you the address via WeChat now!" Qin Can instantly realized the seriousness of the situation. His heart was in his throat, and he didn't bother to ask any more questions. He hurriedly clicked on WeChat and sent the location of the villa to Li Shu, "Master, I sent it to you!"
Li Shu hummed, as if she knew what Qin Can wanted to ask next, and slowly said: "Don't worry, there is still time. Your friend won't die now. If it's any later, it might be a disaster."
Qin Can breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and his shoulders relaxed as if he had taken a reassurance pill. He was also glad that he had just taken a photo and asked Li Shu, otherwise he couldn't imagine the consequences. He didn't know where Li Chenyuan got this painting from. He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, Master."
"The scene in that painting will change at any time, recording what is happening in the world inside the painting. Are you still in front of the painting now?" Li Shu asked.
A hint of surprise flashed in Qin Can's eyes. He didn't expect that the painting would change. Suddenly, he remembered that when he was in that room just now, Zhang Zhe said that he seemed to see the people in the painting move. Now it seems that it was not an illusion, it was real!
He collected his thoughts, left the window, and walked towards the stairs. "No, I'll go and guard it now!"
"Well, I'll hang up first. I'll be there soon."
"Okay, Master."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Can also ran down the stairs.
Seeing this, Zhang Zhe subconsciously followed and ran. Although he was confused, he realized that something serious might have happened from the serious expression on Qin Can's face and the few words he said on the phone.
The two of them ran back to the master bedroom on the second floor, one in front and one behind.
Zhang Zhe panted slightly and asked, "What's wrong, Brother Can, what happened?"
Qin Can stared at the painting hanging on the head of the bed. Just as Li Shu said, it had really changed. It now depicted the scene of guests eating and drinking after the wedding ceremony.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhang Zhe followed his gaze. When he saw the painting, his jaw dropped. He rubbed his eyes and suspected that he had misjudged it. He raised his hand and pointed at the painting. Then he glanced at Qin Can beside him and said with some stammering: "Can, Brother Can, this, this...what's going on? Why...it suddenly changed. Am I hallucinating?!"
Qin Can frowned and said in a deep voice, "It's not an illusion, it's real. Li Chenyuan was sucked into this painting, and this painting is recording what's happening in the world inside."
"Sucked into the painting?!" Zhang Zhe was slightly stunned when he heard this, then realized, "So, the groom in the wedding scene we just saw who looked a bit like Li Chenyuan was him?!"
