Chapter 60: Color in the Picture
We have always followed the principle that if there are too many coincidences, it is not just accidental, but there must be inevitability. These incidents are all linked to the rumors of Jixing, so it cannot be as simple as a coincidence. Tang Tianli was defined as drowning in the bathtub, and there was no trace of someone framing him for the time being, but it didn't mean that he really drowned himself easily.
The soldiers were divided into three ways, and Tang Sen and Tang Lin came to the Tang Tianli hotel suite to look for clues in the suite. Xie Lei and Tang Minyun worked together to understand the people Tang Tianli had been in contact with in the past few days, hoping to find out the suspects. Xu Jiaqi and I went to Tang Tianli's house to learn about the situation.
Because of Tang Tianli's death, his home is now shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness. When we arrived, Tang Tianli's son had just returned home from out of town. This young man who likes to read detective novels hugged his mother and cried as soon as he entered the door. Naturally, we can't ask at this time, so we can only stay by and see the situation first.
Tang Tianli is not the only son of Tang Ke, he also has a four-year-old daughter Tang Yiyi. When Tang Ke and his mother were crying bitterly, Tang Yiyi was lying alone in his room, although the tears were falling, but he did not make a sound.
I walked into Tang Yiyi's room and saw a lot of dolls in the room, and I could see that these were all bought for her by her parents. And next to these dolls, there are also some colored pens, as well as picture albums. Picking up the picture book on the table and looking at these childish brushstrokes, I can imagine this little girl's happy dependence on the family.
There are blue skies, cottages, and parents and older brothers, all of which are harmonious and pleasant, rich in color, and can reflect the cheerful heart of this little girl. Of course, I can also see the top one, the painting that lacks my father, and on that picture, there is a circle in the sky, and in the circle, a pair of wings appear.
"This wing, it's your father's, isn't it?" I asked Tang Yiyi softly.
Tang Yiyi looked at it, wiped the corners of her eyes and nodded.
Hey, children's hearts are always good, although they are sad, but they always imagine bad things, very dreamy, perhaps, she really thinks or hopes that her father can fly to heaven like an angel.
Looking at the album, she tried to have a conversation with Tang Yiyi, although she didn't say much, but from the children's words, it can basically be judged that this little girl really likes to paint, and it is because of Tang Tianli's influence. In the album, I did see a few paintings of Tang Tianli.
Unlike Tang Yiyi's childish brushstrokes, Tang Tianli's paintings are more realistic. Only then did I realize that Tang Tianli had really learned painting and calligraphy!
At first, I didn't really care, I just integrated Tang Yiyi's thoughts about my father, but later, I gradually realized that maybe the problem is not so simple.
"Jiaqi, come over here." I beckoned and placed a few paintings on the table, "See if there's a difference." β
Xu Jiaqi pondered for a while, and immediately said: "These two paintings should be from Tang Yiyi's hand, because the brushstrokes are relatively naΓ―ve, but these two paintings are different in color. This one is distinctly dull in color, even grayish and white, while this one is colored. β
"Yes, I just looked through a lot of paintings in Tang Yiyi's album and found that although there are many paintings with bright colors, some of them are gray and white, and the theme style is obviously dull. Moreover, if you look closely, there is a difference between these dull colors and color paintings. β
I casually took out some dull color paintings and placed them on the table, Xu Jiaqi glanced at them, pointed at them and said: "In the dark color paintings, the image of my father seems to be a little ugly, which is obviously different from the color paintings!" β
I nodded, and turned around to look at Tang Yiyi. And Xu Jiaqi also guessed what I was thinking, and said, "Brother Liang, Tang Tianli he... β
I waved my hand and motioned for Xu Jiaqi not to say more,
"You're looking at these." I put a few more paintings on the table.
Xu Jiaqi said: "The style of these paintings is mature, and they should not be Tang Yiyi's. β
"It's Tang Tianli! If you look at these paintings, what factors appear more ... β
"What factors appear more?" Xu Jiaqi scratched her head curiously, looked at it for a long time, and didn't see why, "I really don't know about this." β
I pointed to the paintings in turn and said, "This is a country hut, smoke." This is a mountain forest, with a faint glow. It's a bonfire. There is also this one that is even more obvious, a man holding a torch, lighting up the cave! β
"Fire! In these paintings, fire appears a lot! β
"And these fires actually have deliberate ingredients, and there are some factors that can be used without fire, but Tang Tianli brought them. And some, in the paintings he is involved in, there must be a need for fire ontology, such as bonfires, and torches to illuminate the caves. β
"Does that mean anything?"
I shook my head: "I'll go back and tell you more." You will chat with Tang Tianli's wife for a while, and try to know Tang Tianli's wife's evaluation of Tang Tianli. By the way, help me understand, what do Tang Tianli often do in the village, as far as we know, Tang Tianli is the former village head, you ask his wife, when Tang Tianli was the village head, was he busy, and why was he deprived of the title of village head. β
Xu Jiaqi nodded and walked out immediately.
After the noise of crying outside had subsided a bit, Donk walked in again.
He first bowed to me and said, "Teacher Xu, I heard that you are helping to find out about my father's affairs. I also know the capabilities of your firm, so I bothered you. β
"Don't be sad, help your mother deal with your father's funeral, when you grow up, this family will have to rely on you in the future." I tapped him on the shoulder, told him to sit down, and motioned for Donk to wake him up.
Under the comfort of my brother, Tang Yiyi got up from the bed and sat next to me with Tang Ke.
The brother and sister have a big age difference, but they seem to have a good relationship. Tang Yiyi has been sitting in her brother's arms, and at the moment she treats her brother as all dependent.
If you want to know the true evaluation of your parents by your children, obviously, what Tang Yiyi knows will be more true. I asked tentatively: "Yiyi, tell me, did your father buy these dolls for you?" β
Tang Yiyi nodded.
"Is your dad nice to you?"
She nodded again.
"Then is your dad good to your brother?"
Tang Yiyi also nodded affirmatively.
"What about your mother?"
At that moment, I could feel the child's hesitation, but this hesitation didn't last long, Tang Yiyi still nodded lightly!
