I want to be a super cop

Chapter 166 The One-eyed Sculptor

The police split into two groups.

The people along the way focused on checking Hu Guang's identity and background and his usual interpersonal relationship, even if he usually had a close relationship with those few people, they would further verify it.

The other passer-by was led by Zhong Tianzheng.

Hu Guang's case is still left to Zhong Tianzheng to follow up.

In addition to him, the members of the team also include Ah Xiang, and Yan Zhaoxing, an enthusiastic citizen who assisted.

Um.
It seems a little less.

However, this does not prevent the progress of the case.

In view of Yan Zhaoxing's key opinions on the turning point of the case, when tracing the third person behind the scenes, his opinions were mainly referred to.

"Just by looking at this set of engraving utensils, I can guess the clues of the case, and Hu Guang's identity is self-defeating."

Yan Zhaoxing glanced at a set of engraving knives in front of him, and couldn't help shaking his head: "Tsk tsk, like me, I think it would be a pity not to become a policeman."

"Pooh."

Zhong Tianzheng is not used to him at all: "You are the best in the world for bragging, you can suspect his forged identity with just this set of knives?"

"Make a bet?"

Yan Zhaoxing squinted at him, and said with disdain: "I won, please eat."

"All right."

Zhong Tian is waiting for the next article.

"Look at these carving knives, although there are obvious signs of use, whether it is the wooden handle of the knife or the natural erosion marks of the knife shaft, it shows that this is a thing that has only been used for a short time."

Facing Yan Zhaoxing's explanation, Zhong Tianzheng took the carving knife in his hand and looked at it carefully: "What's the explanation?"

According to common sense, aren’t normal signs of use normal?
"Other things may be like this, but for a master sculptor, the carving knife is equivalent to his extended arm. Generally speaking, it is not easy to replace it at all, because each work is likely to be due to the feel of the carving knife. If it is different, the carved things will be very different.”

"The importance of this thing is just like how the police value their own guns, soldiers value their rifles, and soldiers value the military flag and national flag." Yan Zhaoxing flipped the carving knife and pointed to the wooden handle: "According to common sense, this The handle of the carving knife should be as smooth as patina, not just normal use marks like it is now."

"Pulping?"

Ah Xiang blinked her big curious eyes, obviously not understanding.

"It's not easy to explain. Let me give you an example: the handle of the sickle that farmers use every day must be very smooth. No matter what he uses the sickle for, the blade is dirty but the blade is always very shiny."

Yan Zhaoxing stopped looking at this set of knives: "A good engraving skill can definitely not be developed in a day or two, a year or two, and a master engraver cannot be created overnight, it must be the talent of countless exercises." Achievement, to be honest, I am very curious about this person, who is it?"

Ah Xiang asked: "Then how to find this person?"

"That's your policeman's business. I'm only responsible for verifying the direction of the investigation. You can do the rest. Remember to treat me to a meal." Yan Zhaoxing shrugged and said he didn't know: "By the way, I think this person is the oldest At least they are 40 years old and above, young people don’t have such good craftsmanship.”

"Also, he should be left-handed. This can be seen from the bamboo slices of his carved human face. The overall flow is to the right."

Yan Zhaoxing looked at Zhong Tianzheng with a smile: "How about it, are the clues I provided enough for a meal?"

"Just wait until the case is over."

Zhong Tianzheng waved his hand, now is not the time to discuss dinner, how should this person be dug out?

After all, there is still a clue.

The police focused their attention on older men who had been in contact with Hu Guang on weekdays.

but.

The reality has far exceeded everyone's expectations.

thought.

This person will surface soon, but through investigation, it is found that Hu Guang has very little communication in his daily life, and most of the people who come to play with him are raw material suppliers and lower-level distributors needed for breeding bamboo rats. business.

In addition to these necessary contacts, there is not a single redundant contact in his newsletter.

The police checked his social accounts and online shopping accounts, but there were no useful clues.

Even his adoptive parents, he didn't call back, but just remitted money to their accounts every month.

"Damn it, ruthless! Is this person really ruthless and has no social skills at all?"

Yan Zhaoxing only felt that Yahuazi was in a bit of pain, and none of the clues he provided corresponded to it, and it didn't help the case at all.

At this point, the case seems to have reached an impasse again.

at the same time.

In Songhu District, Shangnan City, a rural house near the border of the upper jurisdiction.

A middle-aged man who looked about 30 years old moved a small wooden four-legged bench and leaned his back against the threshold of the main room.

The middle-aged man first lit a cigarette, took two puffs calmly, then slowly opened the small wooden cabinet on one side, meticulously took out a pair of carving knives with round handles, and spread them out in front of him like an array on wooden table.

The carving knife with a pulpy handle is golden in the fiery red sunset. The middle-aged man is holding a cigarette and closing his eyes. His rough palm is caressing each carving knife in front of him, as if he is stroking his own child, with an intoxicated expression .

In the end, he selected a few carving knives, and arranged the other carving knives around in turn with a sense of ritual, like an audience.

After completing these preparations, the middle-aged man bent down and took out a piece of wood from the small wooden cabinet.

If Yan Zhaoxing was here, his eyes would definitely shine. This is a relatively rare piece of Hainan purple pineapple, and it is also the top-quality avocado material among sea yellows, and its appearance is excellent.

This kind of wood has high density, clear and soft texture, and the carved things are very ornamental, but correspondingly, the difficulty of carving is also a little bit more.

The middle-aged man spit out the cigarette in his mouth, then picked up another one, squinted at the avocado in his hand, and kept playing with it with his left hand.

This is his habitual action.

Before you start, smoke a cigarette first.

After ten seconds.

The middle-aged man reached out to crush the cigarette butt and started to do it.

The avocado began to change in his hands. Although it was going to be dark soon, the middle-aged man was not in a hurry at all. He slowly held the knife in his left hand, and the knife went down one knife at a time without any chaos.

A neighbor passing by said hello and tossed a cigarette over: "Sister Ling, it's rare to see you carving something outside, what can you carve?"

"good stuff."

The middle-aged man known as Sister Ling grinned, and continued to cut the knife without stopping.

sunset.

The golden sunlight covered her body, illuminating her face.

A face covered with wind and frost.

The right eye is impressively a deeply sunken scar.
