Yuan Muye walked into Gao Yubin's carving studio and found that the environment here was not as messy as in the previous handicraft workshops, with debris everywhere...... On the contrary, Gao Yubin is well organized here, and at first glance, he is a thoughtful and even a little obsessive-compulsive man.

Since she is a distant relative of Meng Shujing, Yuan Muye naturally wanted to ask her what happened before she ran away from home, and Gao Yubin answered it fluently, and there seemed to be no flaws on the surface.

Then Yuan Muye looked around at some of the semi-finished products in the carving room, and suddenly found that their style was very different from the finished products in the previous store, and what those finished products wanted to show the viewer was a kind of beauty of life blooming...... And these grotesque and distorted half-finished products in front of him gave Yuan Muye an indescribable weird feeling, as if something was trapped but couldn't break free.

Gao Yubin saw that Yuan Muye had been staring at these works of his, so he said with a smile, "These works have not been completed yet, and they may look a little strange......

Who knew that Yuan Muye blurted out, "Is it trapped inside?" ”

Gao Yubin's face changed after hearing this, and he said with some surprise, "Can you see the meaning of this work?" Looks like you're a great talent at art appreciation, cousin! ”

Yuan Muye shook his head with a smile and said, "I really don't know much about this, I just said my first feeling when I saw this work......"

At this time, Meng Shuyuan came over and said, "What is this carving?" Was it ordered by the customer? Why is it so different from the style of your previous works? ”

Sure enough, when Gao Yubin heard this, he hurriedly interrupted, "What does my cousin do?" ”

Yuan Muye replied casually, "The company's salesman can't compare with artists like you...... By the way, does Shujing usually come here to help? ”

Gao Yubin shook his head when he heard this, "Xiao Jing doesn't know anything about carving, but sometimes I don't go home for a few days to catch up with the union, so she occasionally comes here to bring me some change of clothes." ”

Yuan Muye nodded after hearing this, and then said thoughtfully, "I don't know if Shujing can come back in the next few days, you see that I rarely come once, but I haven't been able to see her yet......"

While speaking, Yuan Muye suddenly saw something covered with a white cloth in Gao Yubin's basement, so he said with some curiosity, "What kind of work is that, why is it still covered with a cloth?" ”

Who knew that Gao Yubin heard it but said, "It's not a work, it's just a stone, because I am afraid that it will not be easy to clean up after the ashes, so I covered it with a cloth." ”

Yuan Muye was interested when he heard this, and he said to Gao Yubin with some curiosity, "What kind of stone is so precious, and you are afraid of falling ashes?" ”

After hearing this, Gao Yubin said casually, "It's just an ordinary wood fossil, which was sent by a customer before, and wanted me to carve it into an ornament, but I was never inspired, so I kept throwing it in the warehouse." ”

Yuan Muye heard Gao Yubin say that it was a wood fossil, and his heart immediately thought of the case in Xu Li's hand, and he wanted to know more about petrified wood carving with Gao Yubin, so he said with a smile, "Wood fossil? Sounds precious, can you give me a look? ”

In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a piece of carving material, and Gao Yubin thinks that Yuan Muye and Meng Shuyuan are both laymen, so it is not a big deal to let them see it......

Who knew that the moment Gao Yubin lifted the white cloth, Yuan Muye's heart suddenly chuckled, and he saw that the strangely shaped petrified wood looked like a woman with a graceful figure.

Even Meng Shuyuan was a little surprised and said, "This ...... How does this look a bit like a woman? ”

Gao Yubin smiled after hearing this, "Indeed, I was also a little shocked when I first saw this stone, so when the customer said that he wanted to carve it into a statue according to its original form, I immediately agreed." ”

Yuan Muye couldn't help but stretch out his hand and gently stroke the humanoid petrified wood in front of him, and saw that it seemed to still retain the texture of a tree, but the surface was smooth like jade, and the touch was cold and refreshing, giving people an indescribable feeling......

Unexpectedly, Gao Yubin saw this, but put the white cloth back on and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't finished this work yet, and I don't want to see it too much until I find inspiration......

Meng Shuyuan showed an inexplicable expression after hearing this, probably unable to understand the strange thoughts of his brother-in-law...... But Yuan Muye agreed, "Indeed, we are still looking forward to the day when it becomes a real work of art." ”

Yuan Muye saw that the situation here was almost understood, and he wanted to leave with Meng Shuyuan, but when he turned around and was about to go out, he suddenly saw an extremely realistic human bone model in the corner.

Meng Shuyuan saw that Yuan Muye had been staring at the human skeleton model in the corner of the wall, so he smiled and said, "This thing looks quite like the real thing, right?" In fact, it was made of PVC, and when Yubin Studio opened, I asked a friend to order it from a model factory. ”

After hearing this, Yuan Muye smiled and said, "Don't say it, it really looks like that at first glance!" After he finished speaking, he also walked to the human skeleton model and looked at it carefully, probably out of professional sensitivity, Yuan Muye also took the model's left hand, and then said with a smile, "Yo, the joints can still move?" ”

His move seemed to make Gao Yubin a little nervous, and he smiled cautiously, "This is the simulation model, so all joints are moving." ”

Meng Shuyuan couldn't help but complain at this time, "At that time, I asked Xiaojing what kind of congratulatory gift she wanted, but she said that Yubin wanted a simulated human bone model...... I really don't understand what you art people think, can you make money in the store by putting such a scary thing? ”

Before leaving, Yuan Muye also deliberately glanced at the top of the head of the human bone model, and found that the position of the parietal bone seemed to be something wrong, but he did not say anything, but quickly left with Meng Shuyuan.

After returning to the car, Meng Shuyuan looked at Gao Yubin, who was closing the store not far away, and said, "How is it, have you found anything suspicious?" ”

After hearing this, Yuan Muye also stared at that Gao Yubin tightly, and then said in a deep voice, "Captain Meng, I hope you can be mentally prepared, Sister Ling...... Something must have happened. ”

Meng Shuyuan's face changed after hearing this, "What? Why? Do you see anything wrong with Gao Yubin? ”

Yuan Muye didn't have direct evidence yet, and he was afraid that if he said Meng Shuyuan now, he would be impulsive and bad, so he sighed and said, "That's not it, but my intuition tells me that the possibility of your sister running away from home is almost zero......"
