When the big screen showed the painting on the wall, Mo Xiaoqing stared at the painting in a daze, motionless.
Xu Yao saw all of this, and he shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Mo Xiaoqing, we are in a meeting now, where are your thoughts wandering?"
Mo Xiaoqing finally reacted and found that everyone in the conference room was looking at her. She suddenly became nervous and hurriedly said carefully and cautiously: "
I feel familiar with this painting. I feel that this style is very similar to a painting I saw at an art exhibition."
"Huh?!"
Xu Yao immediately asked Mo Xiaoqing to show the painting she saw in the painting.
Mo Xiaoqing took out the photo of the painting called "Beautiful Dream" from her mobile phone, enlarged it and projected it on the big screen, and explained,
"Please look at the churches in the background of these two paintings. They are exactly the same, and the paper airplanes in the two paintings are also very similar. The paintings also give people a very depressing and dull style."
"Wait a minute!" Xu Yao suddenly called out dully, quickly stood up and walked to the front of the screen, staring at the two paintings in silence.
He suddenly took a pen and outlined a small petal hidden in a corner of the famous painting on the computer screen.
After Xu Yao drew the outline, he immediately said to the Internet police in the conference room:
"Check it out immediately, what plant's flower is this?
Swish, swish, swish, the Internet police quickly tapped the keyboard, and within two minutes, the data was retrieved.
"Captain Xu, we found out that this plant is called white chrysanthemum."
Xu Yao suddenly seemed to have a flash of inspiration and found a clue. He immediately said, "Then you continue to check. What is the flower language of this flower?"
Soon, the flower language was retrieved, and the network police quickly replied: "There is a legend behind the white chrysanthemum.
The legend goes that there was a princess in the castle who was beautiful and noble, but also cold and proud.
In order to win her heart, the gardener in the palace planted a lot of chrysanthemums in the yard. When the white chrysanthemums were in full bloom, the princess found that she had fallen in love with the gardener, but the strange thing was that many of the princess's relatives People died one after another.
They died in various accidents. The princess began to track down the murderer herself, and finally found that all the deaths were deliberately wiped out and the murderer was the gardener.
The reason why the gardener killed these people was that he was the son of the royal family's feud.
The princess finally poisoned the gardener with a bamboo peach, and then chose to commit suicide. Her blood dyed the white petals red, and from then on, the bamboo peach no longer had white flowers. "
Xu Yao murmured to himself, "White bamboo peach, the son of the royal family's feud, that means revenge, revenge that begins with love and ends with death."
Xu Yao then fell into deep thought and never spoke again.
Originally he had only guessed, but now more and more clues are developing in the direction he expected.
Why do paper airplanes appear in the recent cases? The bamboo shoots hidden in these two paintings must be a signal sent to the police by the mysterious person behind the scenes.
This is obviously a provocation.
Revenge! Who is hiding behind and taking revenge for whom?
Xu Yao couldn't help but think about himself again. The fire started from the curtains not far from Mo Xiaoqing's dining table.
Could it be that someone was coming for Mo Xiaoqing? Xu Yao hoped that his guess was wrong. So during the entire meeting, he did not express his thoughts.
He Shenming spoke up,
"This should be a case of serial arson, and we found the same brand of chemical materials in the restaurant and hospital."
Mo Xiaoqing glanced at Xu Yao and suggested, "Deputy Director He, I think we should continue to follow up on these two paintings and the elements of bamboo and peach in the paintings. I want to apply for another trace re-examination."
Xu Yao actually agreed and added, "We do need to check the author of the painting called something like Beautiful Dream. Maybe the paintings in the exhibition and the paintings on the wall of the restaurant on fire are from the same person."
Mo Xiaoqing continued to add, "I asked the organizers of the exhibition, and they said that this series of exhibitions will be touring several large commercial districts in our city."
"That's it. Since the clues have been delivered to our door, we should investigate them." Xu Yao said with his hands spread out.
Their proposal was approved by He Shenming, "Okay. That makes sense. Mo Xiaoqing... since you discovered it, you should continue to be responsible for the investigation."
Mo Xiaoqing was flattered and smiled after hearing this. It was the first time that she was assigned a task by Deputy Director He. She bowed with a smile and said, "Yes, as you command."
He Shenming placed his hands on the desk and continued, "In this arson case, we found a lot of mercuric sulfide. These highly toxic substances are not available to ordinary people, unless they have a way to refine them, and the place must be large enough and secret."
Deputy Director He said as he flipped through the documents piled in front of him,
"Now that the Spring Festival is approaching, we must find the arsonist within two days and bring him to justice.
I hope that you can have a few days of New Year's leave this year to spend time with your family and have a happy new year.
As for the specific investigation work, I will leave it all to Captain Xu Yao." He Shenming instructed.
In fact, Deputy Director He rarely took the initiative to hold meetings on cases, and usually handed them over to Xu Yao. It might be because it was close to the Spring Festival, and the leaders above also hoped that there would be no more chaos.
"Okay, the next meeting will be handed over to Captain Xu. I have another meeting, so I will leave first." He Shenming said and left the meeting room.
Xu Yao walked to the front of the office naturally and swiftly, "Okay, then I will stop talking and start arranging the work.
Deputy Director He just mentioned that a lot of mercuric sulfide was found at the fire scene and the hospital. This is a chemical raw material.
Xiaobo, you should check all the recent large-scale chemical material purchase orders, as well as the data of abandoned chemical plants near the suburbs."
Mo Xiaoqing suddenly interrupted, "To buy so many chemical materials, it should also require a large amount of funds.
If it is really a serial arson case, why did the criminals choose restaurants and hospitals to start with?"
Lao Tan replied, "I investigated the background of the restaurant and the hospital, and made a major discovery.
The legal person behind the hospital is called Li Zhiguo, and he funded the restaurant for his daughter."
Suddenly, Sister Huang screamed, "I found a sensational news in the latest relevant newspapers and media news.
Half a month ago, a farce of jumping off a building was staged on the top floor of the restaurant that caught fire. After in-depth reporting by reporters, it was discovered that the jumper was actually the restaurant's proprietress, who was also the boyfriend of Li Zhiguo's daughter.
This was the reason for his jump. It turned out that Li Zhiguo opposed his relationship with her daughter and insisted on marrying her daughter to a rich man. The jumper claimed that Li Zhiguo looked down on his profession and status."
Xu Yao felt that this was a very useful clue, and immediately asked,
"So what is the occupation and identity of this jumper?"
