Cecia noticed the abnormality of Su Ge, quietly came to Su Ge, and looked at the portrait in front of Su Ge.
A rather handsome man. Judging from the background, it should be the Blue Square in York. Elizabeth recorded the light and shadow effect at that time with excellent brushwork. If you look at it from the perspective of "painting", it is indeed a rare painting.
good work.
But looking at the portrait, Cecilia always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't explain it.
"Is there anything wrong with this painting?"
"serial killer."
"What did you say?"
"Serial killer," Su Ge lowered his voice to avoid being heard by Elizabeth, "the man in the painting is a serial killer. I have seen his original appearance, and this is what he looked like."
Su Ge nodded affirmatively and added, "If what I saw at that time was his original appearance."
Cecia maintained her original expression, but her slightly widened eyes and trembling mouth showed the shock in her heart at this moment.
The two looked at each other, and then returned to the painting. In an inconspicuous corner, they found a cursive signature.
"Ge...Ge, what is this word, Gebiong?" Su Ge struggled to distinguish the signature.
Cecia nodded silently. After thinking for a moment, she leaned into Su Ge's ear and said, "Stabilize her first and don't let her notice anything unusual. I'll notify Angdu and the others."
Su Ge nodded, and after watching Cecia leave the prayer room, he said to Elizabeth: "I saw a very impactful painting inside. Can you share with me some creative inspiration at that time?"
Elizabeth walked over and quickly glanced at the portrait in Su Ge's hand. A hint of disgust suddenly appeared on her originally joyful face, and she frowned slightly and said, "This is a failed work."
"A failed work?"
"Yes, look here," Elizabeth pointed to the man's neck in the portrait, "I didn't handle it well here. It looks like a mouth. If it weren't for this small mistake, it should have been the same as those of my proud works.
It's really a pity to stay together, that gentleman is also very handsome, it's my own fault."
"Sir?" Su Ge noticed Elizabeth's words, "So, you painted this painting for someone else. Is this Gebiong...sir?"
"Yes, he also gave me a gold coin in return, so I was deeply impressed. And ordinary guests would take away the portrait after it was completed, but this gentleman kept the portrait. In fact, if it weren't for that little bit
Flaws, it was really a wonderful encounter.”
When Su Ge heard the origin of this portrait, his thoughts were confused for a moment.
He didn't know if Elizabeth was an accomplice of the serial killer. If so, then his current situation was actually very dangerous. Although he didn't quite believe that Elizabeth dared to take action directly in the Leinu Church, but if it was true, then as a serial killer
The killer's accomplices should also have similar levels of madness.
But if not, this matter can only be classified as a simple coincidence, and Su Ge's heart is more inclined to this explanation.
So, it was the serial killer, no, Gebion, who met Elizabeth by chance before and left a portrait, and then because of a series of coincidences, this portrait was discovered by me again?
Su Ge felt that the probability of this happening was so small that it was almost zero, but the fact was that this really happened, and it happened to him.
How dare you? He has killed people in the city of York and left his own face and name? What a crazy person he is!
Su Ge sighed in his heart. He was shocked by the madness of the serial killer, and his belated vigilance made his back feel cold, and even his breathing began to become disordered.
That's not right. Even though I killed someone, I was the only one who saw what he looked like, and it wasn't necessarily his true appearance. Even the name wasn't his real name. The most important thing is that in his perception, I should now
He is already dead. According to this logic, no one in York City knows his true appearance at this moment. No wonder he is so unscrupulous...
After sorting it out in his mind, Su Ge asked Elizabeth, "Excuse me, when was this painting completed? Also, do you have any impression of the person in the painting? Is he someone you know?"
"
After finishing speaking, Su Ge realized that his question was not normal, and quickly added: "That's right, I admire this painting very much. If you can follow the look of this painting and help me paint another one exactly like it,
That will be the honor of my life."
Elizabeth didn't think too much and said directly: "That's an ordinary person passing by. There are thousands and hundreds of people like that in Azure Square every day. I don't know him and I can't help. I'm sorry."
"Besides," Elizabeth hesitated, "I admit that the light and shadow effect of this painting is very good, but if you are willing to serve as a model, I am confident that you can paint a work that is much better than this one."
There was a knock on the door, and Cecia pushed the door open and walked in as usual, not seeing anything different.
But Su Ge saw Cecia's hint to him, rolled up the portrait, and said, "Can you leave this painting for me to study for a while? I want to keep this way of depicting light and shadow."
"Of course, if I am free, I will go to you and ask you to draw a satisfactory portrait for me. By the way, can you leave your address?"
When Elizabeth heard Su Ge's praise of her paintings, her expression of joy could not be concealed, and she nodded happily, "It's absolutely okay, Mr. Helper, please come to me when you are free. I usually sketch in Blue Square,
You can go find me there."
After reaching the agreement, Elizabeth packed up her belongings, put on her straw hat and left the prayer room.
This commission was completed very efficiently. Although the total reward was only 5 bien. According to the regulations of the association, Su Ge could not obtain additional rewards from this commission, but he did not care because he found a person.
Important clues.
With Cecia's unique contact information, Angdu, Selin and others quickly returned to Leinu Church. Several people sat down around the table and listened carefully to Su Ge's story.
.
After a while, the expressions on everyone's faces began to become solemn, but there was also a hint of excitement.
"Have you checked the background of Miss Elizabeth?" Selin asked.
"After checking, he is a resident of York City, and there is nothing suspicious about his identity." Gary reported.
"Then there is only one conclusion left," Selin looked around. "If Sugar is not mistaken, then this person is the serial killer we have been looking for."
"Andu, do you have any impression of the name Gebiong?"
"No, after the meeting is over, I will report it to other churches to see if I can get any useful clues from them."
"Okay." Selin nodded silently and turned his attention back to the portrait.
"I have a question." When everyone was silent, Su Ge raised his hand.
"If the serial killer used a face that had been transformed by extraordinary powers when he met me, and the name Gabiong was also a pseudonym, what should we do?"
Angdu patted him on the shoulder, "Why are you thinking so much? Since you have clues at hand, let's pursue them first. It's good to be thoughtful, but don't let it trap your actions. Moreover, since the other party uses this name, and
The faces are the same, so there must be some connection, so we can just start the investigation in this direction."
"Leave the matter of finding the person to me and Betro," Gary said with a smile. "We will pay special attention to this face and this name in future searches."
Selin quickly assigned everyone their respective tasks. After lunch, the members of the association once again threw themselves into work, but this time, there was no sense of powerlessness like before when they had nowhere to start.
Selin nodded to Su Ge and put a small stack of banknotes in Su Ge's hand, "This is the commission reward related to Miss Freed, and it belongs to you. Of course, because you are the only one involved in the entire commission,
So you get everything that belongs to you, 100 pounds in total, count it."
Su Ge put the banknotes directly into his pocket like Selin did, but when he held the banknotes, his fingers moved involuntarily.
"What we just discussed is the progress of the investigation of the serial killer Gebiong. It can be counted as your contribution. It is very good. It is precisely because of your clues that we can reverse the passive situation. Now,
We are the hunters."
Su Ge felt a little emotional when he saw Selin's eyes full of fighting spirit.
He found that Selin was truly a man with a sense of justice, and only such a person could serve as the leader of the entire York City Mutual Aid Association.
"But I still don't understand why the other party left a portrait or even a name," Su Ge shook his head, "Mr. Selling, is there really such a crazy person?"
"There are still many things that we cannot understand, but we just need to be ourselves." Selin replied, "During this time, we will continue to study with Cecia and have the Purifier course in the afternoon. If necessary,
When going out for activities, you must remember to hide your identity."
"I understand, by the way, Mr. Selling, this is for you."
Su Ge divided the banknotes in his hand into three and handed them to Selin.
In Selin's eyes full of questions, Su Ge explained: "I don't know when the association will be rebuilt. I'm afraid I will stay with you during this period. These will be used as rent. Thirty pounds, I will also
I don’t know if it’s enough, but if you don’t accept it, I believe that the Goddess of Space will not forgive me for this shameless behavior.”
Selin refused at first, but when Su Ge said the last words, he could only sigh and put the money away.
Su Ge was secretly happy.
Sure enough, the best way to deal with someone like Selin who has absolute faith is to remove the Goddess of Space.
Not long after Selin left, Cecia walked in, changing back into her usual casual clothes.
"What did you say to Brother Celin? He looks very happy." Cecia entered the room and looked outside.
Everyone would be happy to receive money for no reason... But Su Ge didn't think too much about it. Living in Selin's house was a bit stressful for him, especially living for free would make his conscience uneasy.
Only by paying the corresponding rent can Lin sleep more peacefully at night.
"I don't know, Miss Cecia, what are we learning today?"
"Brother Selin just told me that based on your contribution, you are qualified to know the next stage of extraordinary domain knowledge. Moreover, considering the matter of the serial killer, it is time to conduct some targeted studies on you from some secret organizations.
