Chapter 2573
The annual sports meet was being held on the field of Yunzhou’s No. 15 middle school.
The marching song of the athletes resounded throughout the field. The athletes worked hard and fought to be the first …
“””My phone was confiscated by my wife …”” In the equipment room of the sports team, a middle-aged man with unkempt hair and unkempt appearance said to Miao Ying and the others,””because I’ve been going out to drink these days …”””
“””I don’t think so!”” Miao Ying said lightly,””you’ve been spending a lot of money on certain websites recently. Your wife must have found out, right?”””
“””This …”” The man’s forehead immediately broke out in cold sweat. He said in admiration,””you guys … Are really amazing! It can’t be that you’re here to arrest me because of this, right? Is there a need to?”””
“His name was Ma Jia, and he was Zhang Qile’s first love. Back when Zhang Qile was interning at No. 15 high school, he had officially dated Ma Jia and had even met his parents.”
“However, in the end, this relationship ended without a hitch. Zhang Qile didn’t wait for his internship to end before leaving school and officially starting his career as an artist.”
“””Don’t be nervous,”” Miao Ying said, calming down.””We’re here because we need your help with a case!”””
“Just as Miao Ying finished speaking, Ma Jia’s eyes suddenly lit up.”
“””Zhang Qile, is that her?”” “”Is it because of her case?”” Ma Jia asked excitedly.”
“””You …”” Miao Ying was a little surprised.””You knew about it?”””
“””Of course I know,”” Ma Jia said.””She interned at our school before. Many teachers remember her! “”Moreover, she was my girlfriend before, so … This matter caused a huge sensation in our school …”””
“””Yes,”” Miao Ying nodded,””you’re right. We’re here for this case!”””
“””Aiyo, you’ve come to the right place!”” Ma Jia straightened her back and said excitedly,””these few days, I was hesitating whether I should go to the police station to report to you!”
“””It’s a pity that my phone was confiscated by my wife … And the school is having a sports meet …”””
“””Take a look,”” Miao Ying said as she opened Zhang Qile’s picture on her phone.””Is this Zhang Qile?”””
“””Yes, that’s right, it’s him!”” Ma Jia nodded and then said mysteriously,””officer, the red bathtub case is considered a legend in Yunzhou. If I may ask, is Zhang Qile really … Um … The same as the red bathtub case?”””
“Miao Ying thought for a moment, then nodded.”
“””Then this matter is amazing!”” Ma Jia swallowed her saliva and said mysteriously again,””do you know? Zhang Qile once drew a painting that reflected the red bathtub case. I didn’t expect her to be the main character, oh no, the victim … This … This is too strange …”””
“””Oh?”” Miao Ying’s eyes widened. She immediately clicked on the picture on her phone and asked,””is this the one?”””
“Ma Jia looked at it carefully and nodded,””””Right! It … It was this painting!”
“””This painting really makes me feel uncomfortable. You guys don’t know that this is only a photo. If you had seen the painting with your own eyes, it would be even more shocking!”””
“””Did you … See it with your own eyes? did Zhang Qile draw it himself?”” Miao Ying asked.”
“””Um … I don’t think so …”” Ma su recalled carefully and said,””when I saw it, it was already finished. At that time, the internet had already become popular. Zhang Qile and her Art Academy’s classmates had organized a trade art exhibition. She had brought a total of 11 works and sold them all, including this one!”
“””At that time, I didn’t go with her, but I helped her pack the paintings. When I was packing them, I saw this one …”
“””I remember that I was joking with her! Why did she draw such a picture? this was a murder case. Wasn’t she afraid that it would be inauspicious?”
“””But … But …”””
“When she heard the most important part, Miao Ying asked impatiently,””But what?”””
“””Zhang Qile said that I didn’t understand art.”” Ma Jia scratched her head and said,””she asked me if this painting was particularly eye-catching.”
“””I nodded, because…It was just as she said, out of the 11 paintings, I only remembered this one!”
“””It’s also possible that I’ve heard grandma and the others talk about the red bathtub case since I was young. It’s also possible that I’ve been attracted to her painting …”
“””I have to say, Zhang Qile’s standard is really high. No wonder he’s become a famous great artist now!”””
“””Then … What happened after that?”” Miao Ying quickly asked,””that painting, where did it attend the art exhibition, and who bought it?”””
“””It’s at the Art Center, but I don’t know the exact location of the Art Center!”
“””At that time, I was too busy at work, and Zhang Qile didn’t really want me to go!”” Ma su recalled,””now that I think about it, that trade exhibition should be 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. We were on different levels, and we were destined to be strangers in the future …”
“””In fact …”” Ma Jia said helplessly,””we broke up less than two months after the art exhibition!”
“””She went to pursue her life and dreams, while I continued to be my P.E. Teacher …”””
“””You haven’t answered my second question!”” Miao Ying reminded him.”
“””Oh, I’ve never been to an art exhibition, so of course I don’t know who the paintings were sold to, but …”” Ma Jia hurriedly said,””after the exhibition, Zhang Qile was very excited. She told me that all 11 of her paintings were bought by one person, and the price was much higher than she had imagined!”””
“””You’re alone?”” Miao Ying caught on to the main point.””The same person?”””
“””Right!”” Ma su nodded.””Zhang Qile said that the person who bought his painting should be a very rich child. He also has a Xiangjiang accent!”””
“””She said that the man looked at her painting for a long time, especially the one with the red bathtub. So, he bought all the paintings in the end and didn’t bargain!”””
“””Then … How much did you sell it for in total?”” Cui Lizhu, who was standing at the side, interrupted and asked.”
“””You don’t know Zhang Qile,”” Ma Jia shook her head and said,””I asked her, and she said that she sold it for a total of 20000 Yuan, but … Later, I peeked at her bank transfer text message. 20000 Yuan was only a fraction of the amount! Her painting was sold for 220000!”””
“Upon hearing this, cui Lizhu and Miao Ying looked at each other. It seemed that Zhang Qile was indeed very scheming.”
“””From then on …”” Ma Jia said,””I had a premonition that we were no longer on the same level. So, when we broke up, I was quite calm. I said some words of blessing, and then we never met again!”
“””Of course, from then on, Zhang Qile became even more confident in herself. She realized that someone appreciated her painting, so her goal became even more determined …”
“””But …”” Ma Jia paused for a moment and said sadly,””I didn’t expect that she would suffer such an unexpected disaster, and in such a way …”””
“””Police officer, do you think that the person who killed her is the one who bought her painting?”””
Ma Jia’s words were exactly what the others were thinking.
“From the looks of it now, this mysterious buyer was indeed a big suspect.”
“After leaving No. 15 high school, Miao Ying immediately told cui Lizhu,””””We must find out the identity of this buyer as soon as possible!”
“””Tell Zeng ke that he can look for Zhang Qile’s contact and transaction records. Zhang Qile likes rich people, so she might have been in contact with the mysterious buyer all these years …”””
