Chapter 85 Signed Aguda

Chapter 85 Signed A Gu

Officer Wang originally wanted to record the information of the person who reported the crime, but then he heard Gu Chen yelling. He had no choice but to walk over.

The room Gu Chen was in looked a bit like an old warehouse, with many painting equipment piled inside.

But relatively speaking, this room is relatively neat, especially since there are several cans of fire extinguishers inside.

From this point of view, the man with the ponytail is somewhat safety-conscious.

“What did you ask me to do?” Officer Wang came over and asked.

“Senior Brother Wang, Senior Sister Lu, come here quickly.” Gu Chen shouted, holding several defective paintings in front of him.

Lu Weiwei’s face was solemn, and after looking at it, she asked: “Junior Brother Gu, apart from the paint dripping on the drawing paper, there is nothing special about it.”

“Yes.” Officer Wang also took one of the paintings and said, “Maybe this gentleman accidentally knocked over the paint when he was painting, so this is just a discarded scrap.”

In fact, the most taboo thing about painting is spilling paint.

Every perfect work actually needs to go through several revisions, which is also normal.

“That’s not what I’m talking about, but the signature on it.” Gu Chen slid his finger to the upper right corner and said, “Have you ever heard of Aguda’s signature?”

“Aguda?” Lu Weiwei bit her finger and thought, “I seem to have heard of it somewhere.”

Officer Wang couldn’t help but said: “This should be a nickname, right? Just like writers have pen names, it’s all for the same reason.”

“But the key is Aguda, he is quite famous in the world of calligraphy and painting, and he is also very mysterious.” Gu Chen took out his mobile phone, entered “Jiangnan City Aguda” on the search engine page, and then handed the phone over To Officer Wang.

“You see, Aguda is a wandering painter in Jiangnan City. He has always been very mysterious. He always wears a mask and a hat when he goes out to paint. Many people have never seen his true appearance.”

“You mean? The person who reported the crime is Aguda?” Officer Wang looked at the ponytailed man following behind him and couldn’t help but ask.

“Can I ask for your name, sir?” Lu Weiwei turned to look at him and asked softly.

“My name is Gao Shan, a native of Jiangnan City.” The man with the ponytail looked at the painting in Gu Chen’s hand, nodded and admitted, “Yes, I have been painting under the signature of ‘Aguda’ for many years. Unexpectedly, Does anyone know me here?”

“No wonder your paintings are so valuable.” Gu Chen was also overjoyed and said: “When I was in elementary school, I saw your signed works in a calligraphy and painting exhibition. That was the first time I became interested in paintings. You were The work is called “Countryside”, and I still clearly remember that the content is mainly based on Hakka culture. “

“That’s all in the past.” The man with the ponytail waved his hands and said calmly: “I like a free life and don’t want to be disturbed by the world, so I never show up in public, and the people who know me are limited to the circle of calligraphy and painting. “

It’s rare to meet someone who knows the goods, so the man with the ponytail is a little lucky.

In fact, for people in this kind of circle, reputation is more important than strength.

The same painting, of the same level and style.

However, as long as they are evaluated by the literary and art expert jury of the Humanities, Calligraphy and Painting Academy and the Art Exchange Center, painters who are titled as “Contemporary Powerful Runge Artists” often have works that can even reach the level of 10,000 yuan per square foot in China.

Anyone who requires painting and writing can follow the above-mentioned standard, and an additional 20% to 30% will be charged as appropriate.

As for those who do not have this title, that is, wandering painters outside the system, no matter how powerful they are, the pricing of their works varies greatly.

Therefore, Aguda falls into the latter category.

However, the name Aguda is quite famous in the world of calligraphy and painting.

After all, his mystery and low profile have made many people follow his works crazily.

However, in recent years, very few of Aguda’s works have been released, so the price of the collection has been rising.

So when Takasugi was standing in front of him, it was not an exaggeration to say that the price of his work was worth 2 million.

Officer Wang held his chin and thought: “On the whole, there are no signs of damage to the doors and windows of your house, which means that the thief shouldn’t have broken in. Could it be that you remembered it wrong? Maybe this painting doesn’t exist at all.” Leave it at home?”

“No.” Gao Shan shook his head and replied with certainty: “I am 100% sure that this painting must have disappeared at home. You must believe me. It was my five years of hard work. Regardless of Please help me find it no matter what, thank you in advance.”

Gao Shan almost knelt down in front of Officer Wang.

“How can I bear this?” Officer Wang quickly supported him: “Get up first, don’t do this.”

Lu Weiwei also sighed, turned to look at Gu Chen beside her, and asked, “Junior brother Gu, what do you think?”

“If the painting is really stolen, then the thief must also know the high value of this painting.” Gu Chen paused, thought for a few seconds and then said: “How about we go to the auction house in Jiangnan City and take a look , you can also check the black market, this kind of thing just circulates in these places. “

“What if it is distributed to foreign markets?” Lu Weiwei gave a hypothesis.

“Then we can’t investigate for the time being. After all, the authorization procedures are complicated.” Officer Wang also told the truth.

Gu Chen nodded and said: “At present, we can only start from the circulation link.”

After all, Takasugi gave too few clues, and there were no signs of the house being broken into, so it was really difficult to investigate.

Gu Chen found the photo of the lost painting from Gao Shan’s mobile phone.

Judging from the photos, they should have been taken at a certain exhibition, and it may have been at that exhibition that the thieves set their sights on Aguda’s works.

“Comrade police, this is my hard work for many years. Please help me find it.” Gao Shan’s face was heavy, and he seemed to be upset about the loss of the painting.

Lu Weiwei comforted: “Aguda, oh no, Mr. Gao, we will try our best. If you have more clues, you can continue to provide them to us.”

“Yes, I will fully cooperate.” Gao Shan spoke politely.

After searching again and again, the three of them planned to go to the auction house and the black market to ask about the situation. After all, the probability of this painting appearing was very high.

“Eh? What is this?” Gu Chen was suddenly attracted by an unusual situation in the living room.

Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang both turned their heads at the same time.

In the corner of the living room, there was an exquisite birdcage, and inside it lay a stiff canary corpse.

Gao Shan also noticed Gu Chen’s attention and walked forward and said: “This is my favorite pet canary. It has been with me for many years. Recently, I have neglected to take care of it because of painting matters, so I don’t want to take care of it.” think……”

“Dead?” Lu Weiwei took a step forward distressedly, looking at the dead canary in front of her, and couldn’t help but feel: “You are serious, the painting is lost, but you can’t ignore the pet, right?”

“Yes, yes, it’s all my fault, it’s all my fault.” Takasugi also admitted his fault.

Gu Chen didn’t say anything. He looked under the birdcage. There were still a few undisposed bird droppings and broken bread crumbs on the ground.

Afterwards, Gu Chen took out his evidence collection bag and collected all these things.
