Chapter 344: A Room Full of Portraits
Without a sound, the door opened faintly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In just a split second, they almost concluded that the screams were coming from this room.
The lights in this room were not on, probably because there were no windows in this room or the windows were blocked by something, even in broad daylight, it was pitch black, and even if the light in the hallway shone in a little, they could not see anything except the dark floor near the doorway.
The reason they could confirm that the "scream" came from this room was because they all felt a chill in varying degrees in the seconds after the door opened.
Unless all the rooms on the third floor had this effect—and the family would be a big problem—this was the room they were looking for.
"Smack!"
Zhang Xi, who was walking in the front, fumbled on the wall for a while and turned on a switch.
The cold white light flickered twice, and suddenly lit up, and everyone's eyes were uncomfortable for a while, and they narrowed one after another.
However, the sight in front of them made them gasp!
It's so weird!
All the walls of this room are densely packed with large and small oil paintings! All the walls, including the ceiling, look like hundreds!
What's even more weird is that the person who painted can be said to be very realistic, painting the characters in the painting vividly, and these hundreds of portraits are as straight as real people, and all of them are the same woman!
This room is about forty square meters, which is very large, and in addition to these hundreds of paintings, there is no interior decoration that ordinary people should have in a home, only a chair and a drawing board on a stand!
"This ......" Jiang Xiangtian couldn't help but be stunned.
"This room seems to involve other people's privacy, right? Why don't we go? There was already a shadow in Lang Yu's heart, if he was the only one who came here, he would definitely turn around and run away at this time.
As an exorcism expert, although Zhang Xi is only one star, he has seen enough strange events, but the paintings in the room can't frighten him.
He walked over to the chair in the middle of the room, looked at the easel carefully, and said, "I guess there must have been a woman painting here just now, and she must have painted herself!" ”
Everyone squeezed into the room at this time, saying "squeeze", not because the room is small, after all, it is nearly forty square meters, but because the atmosphere of this room is very uncomfortable, so they unconsciously shorten the distance between each other.
"How did you deduce that?" Xie Zhongfa asked as he looked around.
"It's very simple, everyone heard a woman's scream just now, so there must be a woman on the third floor." Zhang Xi touched the unfinished painting on the drawing board, "This room full of paintings, the painting style is delicate, just and soft, it should come from the hands of a woman." And the paintings on this drawing board still feel wet, he should have been sitting here drawing not long ago. ”
He looked up and asked Xie Zhongfa: "Senior Xie, you were on the third floor as soon as possible, did anyone go out of this room?" ”
Xie Zhongfa hesitated for a moment and said, "No...... Didn't you? But the light in this hallway was so dim that I couldn't see it clearly. ”
Zhang Xi rolled his eyes and said, "No matter how dark it is, you can always see such a big figure, right?" So there's a good chance that she hasn't gotten out of this house yet? That's interesting, I think ......."
After listening to Zhang Xi's statement, Lang Yu leaned on Yuan Fan closer, trembling slightly, he thought, "Haven't gone out yet?" Could it be that there is another person in this room? But...... It's all paintings, where did you come from! ”
Zhang Xi put his hand on his chin and made a thinking gesture. Soon, he seemed to have results.
"There it is!" He clapped his hands, "This is supposed to be a disfigured woman's room!" ”
"Huh?" Everyone has a question mark on their faces, and Zhang Xi's thinking seems to be a little jumpy.
"I guess this woman is probably the daughter or granddaughter of the old couple or something, because she is disfigured and has not seen anyone for many years, so the old couple did not introduce her to us." Zhang Xi said very firmly, "Because she was very obsessed with her previous appearance, this woman lived by painting herself." The shout we heard just now should have been made by her for an inexplicable reason. When she heard that we had all come up to look for her, she hid in fear, if she wasn't hiding in this room, then there should be a secret passage in this room......"
As he spoke, he spun around, looking for a place where there might be a secret passage.
The others couldn't tell right from wrong for a while after listening to his words, but they were exorcists, so they shouldn't have the ability to analyze supernatural events, right?
At this time, Yuan Fan suddenly frowned and said, "It shouldn't be ......"
"What shouldn't you?" Lang Yu behind him asked.
"I don't see anything else, but the person who painted it shouldn't be the woman in the painting." Yuan Fan shook his head.
Everyone stopped looking for the action, and looked back at Yuan Fan, which seemed to be asking, what Zhang Xi said is quite reasonable, do you have any reason to object?
Yuan Fan walked to a painting beside him, in which the woman was wearing the clothes of a pregnant woman, her eyes were full of joy.
"When you look at the movements and demeanors of the women in these paintings, I always feel that this is not like a depiction of myself, but more like a ...... It's more like a work drawn by someone who loves her! Yuan Fan looked at several paintings in a row, "This person can be said to be very affectionate towards her, every action she makes, her smile, this person has carefully observed and remembered it." Think about it, can a person capture so many and so detailed expressions and expressions of himself? ”
After listening to Yuan Fan's analysis, everyone nodded involuntarily.
Wu Xiaoyi said weakly: "Will it be ...... Could it be the daughter of an old couple, who likes women, and then ...... Then, the woman left her, so she painted the portrait of the woman every day. ”
"It's also possible," Yuan Fan nodded, "but I think we should really go, no matter what the situation is, it seems to be someone's own business, and we shouldn't interfere too much." ”
Lang Yu nodded violently and agreed very much: "That's right! I said it a long time ago! We're already a crime! ”
Jiang Xiangtian walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's not enough to commit crimes, we are also kind, maybe the owner of this scream needs help?" But Yuan Fan said yes, let's go to someone's private space to see, it's really rude, let's go! ”
President Jiang spoke, although Zhang Xi wanted to know what was going on in this room, but it was clear at a glance that it didn't look like he could hide people, as for the secret passage...... That's even more private.
Zhang Xi walked out with everyone, and before turning off the lights, he glanced back and always felt that there was something strange in the room that he hadn't noticed. He hesitated, glanced around again, shook his head, and turned off the light and door.
In the darkness, a pair of blue eyes suddenly lit up.
