Chapter 110 There is something strange about the cheetah's eyes
Li Meng stared blankly at Shang Lu who was looking at him with such tenderness on his face. He was stunned for a moment. Gu Nankai, Wu Qingluan and others looked at this pair of funny guys helplessly. Silly Li Meng was almost played around by Shang Lu. Until now he didn't understand why this little guy was making fun of him in different ways.
"Okay, hehe." Li Meng responded sweetly.
It just so happens that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. Li Meng smiled at Shang Lu, scratched the back of his head and said "okay" naively. Shang Lu was a little surprised by this guy's "okay". His eyes changed several times and finally turned away shyly and stopped looking at him.
"Okay, Cao Cang, please tell me what's going on!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him with their arms held back, Shang Lu's face turned red and he urged Cao Cang.
Cao Shen also smiled suddenly. He glanced at his good brother Li Meng, who was laughing so hard that he couldn't tell north from south. He couldn't bear to see Shang Lu embarrassed any longer, so he cleared his throat and said, "When we found the mysterious Chinese designer through the cufflinks, I observed the cufflinks carefully. At that time I even joked to the boss that those who do art design are all very capable, at least they must be good at painting."
Gu Nankai had been giving the opportunity to Cao Cang to speak, and only after Cao Cang said this did he continue, "Yes, because in the eyes of non-professionals like us, no matter what design it is, as long as it has something to do with the word designer, we will subconsciously think that the person can draw, just like many people often think that students majoring in English should be able to translate all the English on the English channel."
"Oh, that's true!" Li Meng couldn't help but slap his thigh. "I know a brother who has a sister who studies English. One year during the Spring Festival, I went to his house. There were many relatives there. I saw those relatives caught the girl and asked her to translate what they said in the English channel. The girl was almost crying at the time. I didn't understand what was going on."
Everyone in the serious crime squad knew that Li Meng was an orphan with no parents or brothers or sisters, so no one laughed at him when he said this. Shang Lu blinked and subconsciously wanted to tease him like usual, but he changed his mind and quickly gave up the idea.
She chuckled and rolled her eyes at Li Meng: "Silly, there are many majors in learning English, just like we police officers are divided into different categories. Not everyone who studies English can translate."
Li Meng laughed, as if he also found his own thoughts funny. He looked at Gu Nankai honestly: "Boss, just keep talking, don't worry about me."
Gu Nankai smiled nonchalantly and continued, "At the time, none of us realized that there was any connection between the tattoo on the deceased and the cuffs we found. But do you still remember that when we first discovered the difference in the peony tattoo, it was because of Hai Langui's unique technique that was difficult to imitate."
Everyone listened very carefully and nodded after hearing what Guan Nashou said.
Gu Nankai turned his gaze towards Gao Yuan: "Gao Yuan, bring us the cufflinks we found, and you will find out where the clue is."
Gao Yuan quickly stood up and ran a few steps to get the cufflinks and handed them to Gu Nankai. At this time, Cao Cang also received Gu Nankai's instructions and brought the photo of the peony tattoo. Gu Nankai put the eye-catching things together, pointed to the center of the peony flower on one side, and took the small cufflink in his hand and pointed to the cheetah's eyes on the other side. Afraid that everyone couldn't see clearly, Cao Cang specially brought a magnifying glass and handed it to Gu Nankai at the right time.
Gu Nankai smiled gratefully, took the magnifying glass from Cao Cang's hand and shone it on the cheetah cufflink. It was an extremely small object, but even after being magnified like this, one could still see its fine details, and even more clearly see the effort the designer put into this tiny cufflink.
It is difficult to see with the naked eye and can only be seen after magnification. At this moment, a sea symbol exactly the same as the heart of the peony flower is carved out in the cheetah's eyes with fine brushstrokes.
"Oh my God! This is terrible!" This time, it was Gao Yuan who exclaimed. He had not expected that such a secret would be hidden in such a small cufflink. Because he was closest to Gu Nankai, he could see it more clearly.
Gu Nankai quickly handed the cufflinks and magnifying glass to Wu Qingluan and Shanglu Li Meng. After the three of them checked them separately, Cao Cang finally confirmed it, and it turned out that his guess was correct.
Wu Qingluan seemed very surprised. She asked, "Cao Cang, how did you connect these two things together? Even if you can think of the similarities between designers and tattoo artists, it is difficult to combine the cufflink designer with Hai Langui's peony tattoo."
Cao Cang grinned and immediately explained: "At that time, we just thought that this cufflink was just an object that could prove the identity of the murderer or the deceased, so I didn't check it in detail."
He said with some regret: "This is my negligence. When I first observed it, I felt that there were some different textures around the cheetah's eyes."
He glanced at Gu Nankai when he said this, and Gu Nankai nodded quickly: "Indeed, but Cao Cang mentioned this situation to me, but we didn't think too much about the existence of this cufflink, and the clues we got at the time were too confusing, so we temporarily put this idea aside until Cao Cang mentioned the relationship between the cufflinks and the peony just now, and I suddenly remembered what Cao Cang said at the time."
Gu Nankai paused for a moment, his eyes darkened slightly: "Logically, the cufflinks should be a pair, but we only found one. I just suddenly realized that maybe the murderer wanted to get rid of this cufflink at the time, but it was left at the scene."
"Gao Yuan..." Gu Nankai called Gao Yuan again, and Gao Yuan responded quickly.
Gu Nankai thought for a moment and said, "You still have to do me a favor. Give that..." He paused again and quickly said, "Call that friend of yours and see if he can ask him to call us to get some information."
Gao Yuan frowned slightly: "What are you trying to say? Who are you trying to tell me?"
Gu Nankai pinched his chin and said, "I want to know the origin of these cufflinks from the company that gave them the cufflinks. For example, did the original group request the design and production, or was it the designer who first put the idea forward?"
As soon as Gu Nankai finished speaking, Gao Yuan seemed to understand his intention. He quickly asked, "Captain, do you think that the products designed by a mysterious designer who is very popular would not be given away in such a concentrated manner, let alone the design works that are said to be invaluable in market."
"Yes." Gu Nankai glanced at Gao Yuan calmly. "Now that I think about it, it's just as you said. It's our fault that we thought of it too late. A designer has reached his current status and exudes a mysterious atmosphere. How could his designs be given away in such large numbers? With my vulgar thinking, I first think he did it for money, and then I think he had some purpose. But for a designer like this, does he need money? The answer is obvious, so his purpose is most likely the second one."
Wu Qingluan now understood what Gu Nankai meant. As a psychologist, she could easily understand this aspect of the analysis.
"According to what you said, if the murderer is that designer, then the appearance of this cufflink is already part of his plan. The murderer should have found the person who hurt him or Hai Langui a long time ago. His ultimate goal is to gather them to Longhai City where the incident happened."
