Chapter 69: Back to side job, portrait artist
Shi Tingyu wanted to learn kung fu and it was not just talk.
It is said that more skills are better than less skills. If she encounters any danger in the future, she can handle it by herself.
She can't rely on space for everything.
This space is mysterious. If it suddenly disappears one day, it is not impossible. When she doesn't have this cheat, what can she use to save herself in danger?
Space can bring her family health, she is already very satisfied.
Shi Tingyu thought that Lu Weiguo would let her start preparing for training the next day, at least she had to do a horse stance.
Who knew that he didn't move even after coming back for breakfast.
"You won't train me today?" she asked.
Lu Weiguo glanced at her, his ears slightly red, and he said hesitantly, "You haven't been in good health for the past two days."
Shi Tingyu wanted to say that she was in good health, but after seeing his expression, she suddenly had an idea.
The two of them had just had sex for the first time these few days, and women would always feel uncomfortable for a few days.
She couldn't tell him, it's okay, I will secretly go to the space to take a bath with the spiritual spring water after we are done.
So Shi Tingyu acquiesced.
However, the martial arts training was delayed, and there was something that was indeed urgent.
Shi Tingyu felt that the two people she met in the mountains last time should be very important.
She wanted to draw the two people while her memory was still fresh.
At that time, the two people were a little distance away from her, and when she peeked, she only saw the side.
But this did not prevent her from drawing the people.
Before she became famous in her previous life, she worked as a portrait artist in the police station for a period of time.
When she first studied fine arts, she took the path of professional painting, and did not choose other easy-to-employ majors, so all she knew was painting.
But she found that it was very difficult to cash in on her paintings before she became famous.
In order to find a stable job within the system, she passed a series of assessments such as the public security professional knowledge test and physical fitness and psychological quality assessment, and finally became a portrait artist in the police station.
It was only later that by chance, she participated in the China Art Golden Color Award and won the gold medal, becoming famous overnight and gradually gaining popularity.
Later, she continued to participate in domestic and foreign competitions, and her rankings were very good. She also gained fame, and slowly her paintings began to rise.
Before she traveled through time, the highest bid for one of her paintings was 8 million.
Of course, the painting was quite large, and later she had her own agency team, and her career was flourishing.
Although she quit her job at the police station, when they encountered a major case and had no clues, she would go back to help, but that was no longer her main job.
Shi Tingyu took out a pen and paper, and while her memory was still fresh, she drew the picture she saw at the time.
The two men stood opposite each other, facing her sideways.
Although she could not understand the dialect they spoke, she could tell whether it was a southern or northern dialect.
This was very useful for her to capture the characteristics.
In the morning, Shi Tingyu's desk was already filled with several painted portraits.
There were two men standing opposite each other, and there were also two alone.
The difficulty this time was not great. After all, the side profile of the other person was clearly seen, so it was much easier to restore the front view.
The accuracy was much higher than those portraits that were simulated over and over again based on descriptions. It was not
until after one o'clock in the afternoon that Shi Tingyu confirmed three portraits.
One was the side profile of the two people in the same painting, and there were also separate frontal portraits of the two people.
After confirming it again, Shi Tingyu put away the painting tools.
She moved her body and made herself some food.
After dinner, she picked some vegetables from the vegetable garden.
Finally, her eyes inadvertently swept over the climbing roses by the wall.
Thinking of the hand that Lu Weiguo was stabbed with last time, she decided to dig out the one at the door and replace it with other flowers.
In the end, she locked on the tall hollyhock.
Many people grow this, and sometimes it can grow up to two meters in height.
Fortunately, the roses were planted not long ago, so it was not troublesome to dig them up.
She transplanted the dug roses into the space.
If Lu Weiguo asked about it, she would say that she threw it away.
He would not ask about such things to the end.
When Lu Weiguo came back in the evening, she saw that there was indeed an empty space at the base of the courtyard wall.
He asked, "Where are the flowers?"
Shi Tingyu said what she had prepared in advance. As expected, Lu Weiguo did not continue to ask, but he felt a little sour in his heart, "Wife, the pricked hand last time was just an accident. I see you like those flowers very much."
Shi Tingyu said, "These are not as important as people. The one with thorns is gone. When you have time, take me to buy some other flowers."
"Okay, I'll buy you whatever you like."
Shi Tingyu laughed. If she was someone who liked to spend money recklessly, she would definitely eat him up in the end.
Lu Weiguo returned to the room to change his clothes, but saw many portraits of men in the room.
He picked up one of them and looked at it. He found that the person in the painting was actually familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
It was not until he saw the three portraits pressed by the books that his eyes could not help but tighten.
This is a platoon leader named Wang Ming from the third battalion.
He looked at the other paintings again, and the one standing opposite reminded him of what Shi Tingyu said last night.
She said that she met two strange people.
Thinking of this, he picked up the painting in his hand and went to the kitchen.
"Wife, is this person you painted the one you met when you went up the mountain?"
Shi Tingyu took a look at the painting, not surprised at his caution, she nodded and said: "Yes, this is the portrait I restored based on what I saw at the time. Although it is painted from the side, it should be accurate."
She knew that her painting was correct since he could recognize the person in the portrait.
Lu Weiguo warned her seriously, "Don't tell anyone about this, understand?"
Shi Tingyu nodded. She knew this truth.
Seeing that she agreed, Lu Weiguo asked again, "I see that you have painted a lot. In addition to this Platoon Leader Wang, which one is the standard for the other person?"
Shi Tingyu wiped her hands with a towel and went to the room to get the other two portraits for him.
Lu Weiguo looked at the remaining two and said, "You eat first. I have to go to Zhao Tuan." Shi
Tingyu knew that the situation was urgent and did not persuade him. For the military, national security is above everything else, let alone a meal.
Lu Weiguo left in a hurry.
Shi Tingyu then served herself a meal and started to eat.
It was not until after eight o'clock in the evening that Lu Weiguo came back in the dark.
Compared to when he just left, his frown had relaxed.
It is still uncertain whether Platoon Leader Wang is a spy, and now their primary task is to track and investigate.
If he is a spy, anyone who can get to the position of platoon leader must be a powerful character among spies. Catching him can catch a lot of fish.
Shi Tingyu did not ask about Platoon Leader Wang. She knew that this had to be left to professionals.
She went to the kitchen to serve Lu Weiguo a meal, "Eat quickly, it shouldn't be cold."
Lu Weiguo took the meal with a smile in his eyes, "It doesn't matter if it's cold."
The meals cooked by his wife are delicious whether they are cold or hot.
