Originally, Wu Nan would not easily use this extremely brain-burning ability! There was not much need to do so because the police had the ability to restore the victim's appearance to a certain extent through the bones.
However! He wanted to catch the murderer as soon as possible!
He had to speed up the police's investigation process and let the police confirm who the victim was as soon as possible!
Wu Nan's actions were a little strange.
Wu Xinyan went to Wu Nan's side and looked down. She saw Wu Nan drawing a skull in his notebook. It was a sketch! Wu Nan drew very quickly!
"Little Nan, what are you drawing?" Wu Xinyan asked.
Wu Nan didn't say anything because he was very focused!
He couldn't let his train of thought break, or else the outline he had just touched would disappear! The bones must not be drawn wrongly!
"Little Wu, come here!" Zhao Chenglong's voice came from afar.
Wu Xinyan looked up and saw Zhao Chenglong walking to the pathway leading to the main road above. Sun Meng had just come down from there. Deputy Captain Sun Meng was also on leave today, so he came in his private car after hearing the news.
Wu Xinyan went over.
Wu Nan was still drawing.
The skeletal structure of the skull that was drawn…actually looked like a skull that lacked details.
After that, Wu Nan took two more steps toward the little girl's corpse and lowered his head to look at the little girl's face that he could no longer see. He mainly looked at her eyebrows, eyelashes, and nostrils. That was all he could see. He then turned his gaze to the skull that he had drawn. He kept comparing it with the skull and finally started writing.
Next to the skull, he first drew a cross, then a circle…He drew it very slowly, occasionally closing his eyes, as if he was thinking very hard.
Restoring a person's appearance from a skull was actually a very advanced and complicated technique!
If one were to draw according to a known pattern, there would be a certain degree of deviation. For example, one knew what kind of cheekbones would form what kind of forehead. However, fat and thinness, skin color, stratum corneum, subterranean fat, and so on would have a great impact on the restoration of appearance.
Also, it was fortunate that this was a young girl who didn't wear makeup. Otherwise... if it was a 20-year-old girl who wore makeup every day and had a big forehead, but knew how to hide her shortcomings and kept her bangs in the air, then the impression that this girl gave people wouldn't be a big forehead.
However, if it was restored according to the bone structure, it would definitely have a big forehead! When the time came, they might really not be able to recognize him if they looked for their relatives and neighbors!
Wu Nan's writing speed was very consistent and very slow. His eyes were always looking back and forth, looking at the face of the corpse and the skull that he had just drawn by feeling the bones. Then, he carefully drew every stroke.
It took Wu Nan a full three minutes to draw a rough picture.
Then, it was embellishment.
He tilted his head to observe the length of the hair of the corpse, added long hair to the face he had drawn, and polished the portrait in a more childish and feminine direction...
The sketch was getting closer and closer to reality!
Although sketching seemed like a very simple painting technique, it was actually easy to get started with sketching, but it was very difficult to master it. A sketch master could even draw a picture in black and white, which was very, very real!
Wu Nan had that level of skill, but he didn't need to draw at that level!
Because there was no need!
If it was too real, it would lose the space for people to imagine. Only when it was " fuzzy " would people be able to associate it with who she looked like, because Wu Nan could not guarantee that his drawing was completely correct. That was impossible!
He was unable to examine the corpse's face in detail.
Therefore, it was fine as long as the drawing was "almost"!
"... The director will be here soon..."
"... The method is very cruel, and we haven't found anything on the dead girl to prove her identity..."
"Captain, I just checked yesterday. The number of missing children in our city this year is…Among them, girls…"
Chenglong Zhao, Meng Sun, and Xinyan Wu walked over, talking as they walked.
Sun Meng was only one of the vice-captains of the Criminal Investigation Division, but his status was completely different. It was said that the chief had already talked to Sun Meng about the matter of the head captain. Zhao Chenglong had always been very close to Sun Meng, and it had been even more so recently. This was a signal, and it was also because…after Zhao Chenglong was promoted to the vice-captain position, he would mainly be in charge of criminal investigation matters. Sun Meng would still be the most important helper under him!
The three of them saw Wu Nan, but they temporarily treated him as air.
If it were any other nine-year-old child here, they would have been dragged out long ago! Zhao Chenglong was probably going to scold him. How could he let a child come here?
But Wu Nan, the people of the Criminal Investigation Unit would usually treat him like a child, but if he encountered a case or was involved in a case, he would not!
The three of them stood on the other side and looked at the corpse.
With Sun Meng's bad temper, he could not calm down when he saw the little girl's miserable state. He paced back and forth, and his expression changed drastically!
"Little Nan, what are you drawing?" Zhao Chenglong finally noticed and asked.
"Almost done!" Wu Nan replied and drew two strokes.
Finished drawing!
He looked at the sketch he had drawn and his gaze froze for a moment. Then, he quickly walked past the corpse, the forensic doctor, the criminal police officer who dug the hole, and the others. He walked to Zhao Chenglong and the others.
"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Sun, Sister, take a look. Do you remember anything?”Wu Nan handed the notebook over.
Zhao Chenglong reached out and took the notebook. He first noticed the eye-catching skull, then his gaze swept over the sketch of the little girl beside him. He was stunned. He looked up at Wu Nan and then at the corpse that he could not bear to look at.
"Who is this?" Zhao Chenglong asked.”
"She, recovered!" Wu Nan pointed at the corpse.
"Restoration…How did you draw it?”Zhao Chenglong was stunned at this moment. A corpse that had already rotted to such a state could still be drawn?
Was it just a guess?
But Zhao Chenglong did not know how terrifying Wu Nan's spatial imagination was! And his godly sketching skill!
"No, I'll touch the bones first…draw the rough outline…and then reconstruct the appearance according to the bones…Aiya! This was not the main point! Uncle Zhao! Who do you think she looks like?" Wu Nan finally said anxiously.
Zhao Chenglong looked at Wu Nan's sketch of the girl and frowned. He didn't find it familiar and couldn't remember.
Sun Meng and Wu Xinyan tilted their heads and watched as well.
Sun Meng also frowned. He had seen many photos of missing children, but he could not tell who they looked like.
Wu Xinyan's expression changed because she could tell!
She had seen that photo yesterday!
"Luo Tiantian? The 630 case?" Wu Xinyan raised her voice.
In fact, Wu Nan's drawing was not exactly the same as Luo Tiantian's photo, but it was very similar!
"It's most likely her! He wasn't kidnapped, but raped and killed.”Wu Nan tilted his head and looked at the corpse. He said calmly," Call Luo Tiantian's parents to confirm…"
