Soul Painter

It's hard to describe the feelings Minase Harumo, Sambo, and Ryuzaki felt when they first saw Gao Fan's hand-painted sketch of Naru Reimu.

But this is also the price that Wu Haoxue promised to them, in exchange for Nai Liu Lingmeng's life story.

Wu Haoxue promised to the three investigators that as long as they told him all the stories of Nai Liu Lingmeng and asked him to tell Gao Fan, then Gao Fan could record the life of Nai Liu Lingmeng on the canvas , once given the chance, it may become an art treasure that is handed down enough to be like the "Mona Lisa".

At this time, the fame of the founder of the Gaofan Demon Sect played a role.

Although the investigators felt that Gao Fan's madness was unreliable, but... maybe that's how artists should be?

Since Gao Fan wanted to draw a portrait of Nai Liu Lingmeng, and Wu Haoxue promised that his soul would not be used as a sacrifice in a demon ritual, so the investigator They told Wu Haoxue the story of Naru Reimu, and also managed to get Reimu's diary relic from Naru Kawakami.

This made Gao Fan understand Nai Liu Reimu's life better, and the scenes and characters in his works are more concrete and touching.

"It's like Reimu standing in front of me..." Minase Harumen stroked a sketch of the playground as the scene, which was the first time they played games in the playground.

Nai Liu Lingmeng in the drawing paper is very innocent and lovely. All the scenes in the whole picture are abstract and childlike, presenting a roller coaster in the shape of a python, balloons floating in the air like stars, and the noisy flow of people like the Milky Way. The "concentration" of innocence and childlikeness presented in the screen is very full. . .

And the person who stood with Reimu like a daughter was none other than Minase Harumi.

Naru Reimu is 12 years older than Minase Harumi, but the two played in the playground that day like two children of the same age.

Minase Harumi stared blankly at the sketch, as if she had returned to that day and that moment when she and Naru Reimu had no scruples in the amusement park and dreamed of becoming a star in the sky.

And Ryuzaki held a sketch of Naru Reimu when he just became a policeman. In this sketch, only a bust of Naru Reimu was drawn, which especially vividly described her young face, and her The hope for the future in the eyes, the deceit to oneself, is such a girl full of vitality, which hit Ryuzaki's heart when they met for the first time.

Sambo is flipping through dozens of sketches one after another. The styles of these sketches are not consistent, and they seem to be different and unique like a show. When depicting portraits, they will use classicism and encounter multiple scenes. From time to time, modernism is used, as well as surreal techniques that specifically describe the world in Nai Liuling's dream mind.

Yes, surrealism, or magicalism.

Different from the two companions, Sanbao, as a detective, has been in contact with cases related to artworks, so he also has some understanding of oil painting creation.

He looked at the sketch in his hand, there was a huge mountain in this painting, and there were huge eyes on the mountain, and those eyes covered the whole mountain one after another, it looked strange and strange, but the three treasures were inexplicable I feel that this should be the imaginary world in the mind of the artist depicting Nai Liu's dream in a certain period.

She has probably been under the pressure of the police family all the time, those eyes are watching her...

Looking at the nearly 100 sketches and more sketches that are still being produced in the room, the three investigators all said that they still underestimated the works of art that top artists can create. The art of oil painting is here in Gaofan , is not a mystery that ordinary people can't understand, but the ultimate comfort that can remember the dead and surpass the missing.

From this painting, we can read their longing, and feel as if the dead are by our side.

The artist is speaking for the dead, and paying his last farewell to their friends who are immersed in missing.

woo woo...

Over there, Minase Harumi had already started crying, her little face was full of tears.

And Ryuzaki also had tears in his eyes, leaning on crutches, he came to Gao Fan's door, and said sadly, "Master, please help me draw a portrait of me and Reimu getting married."

Then the 'fraudster' said in a low voice: "Please also draw the portrait of the wedding night, and I am willing to pay double the reward."

"You guys don't change your mind!" Minase Harumi jumped over and grabbed Ryuzaki's ear and pulled him back.

"It's fine to double the pay, but one of the teacher's paintings can sell for one billion dollars." Wu Haoxue said.

"Haha, is it so expensive?" Long Qi was shocked by this number, but when he looked at the painting in his hand again, he felt that it was worth a little bit. Being able to draw back his lost companions was like looking at the current situation in her life. At a certain moment, what kind of magical technique is this?

"If you had a billion dollars, one side was to paint a wedding portrait of you and Reimu, and the other side was to paint a portrait of yourself, which one would you choose?" Sanbao asked Longzaki.

"Draw a portrait of me and Reimu's wedding." Ryuzaki replied.

"You cunning guy." Sanbao sighed.

...

Gao Fan could hear the noise outside the house.

But it doesn't disturb his creation.

'Focus' allows him to focus all his energy and attention on the painting in front of him.

With the help of increasingly advanced 'concentration' skills, Gao Fan can already use 'concentration' to seal the mystery in his paintings. The arrow of Van Gogh's command spell is the application of 'concentration', and in those sketches, all kinds of Such a style, as well as the use of 'distortion', will not defeat human reason, but can awaken more moving, memory and nostalgic creative skills, and 'focus' is also an overview of the overall situation.

From a creative point of view, the mental stimulation brought by "distortion" to human beings is too great, it is like a strong medicine, swallowing it, and immediately a boiling flame burst out of the head, but now, in the "focus" Under the control of the artist, Gao Fan can choose to show more, deeper, and more touching images, just like a stream that flows silently and quietly, moistening and permeating the senses and hearts of the viewers.

The few people outside are all close friends of Naru Reimu. It is expected that they will be moved by such skillful paintings. Gao Fan can't do it if he speaks for the dead with the theme of flowing spirit and dream.

Because whether it is an A-level investigator or a demon race, tracing their complete life will inevitably link to a great being. For a great being, the existence similar to the human soul is a trait, and it cannot be described by the pen of a mortal. These "essences" that are as deep as the sea in quantity and as heavy as the universe in quality are revealed.

"The higher the mysticism, the more I feel that the great existence is impossible to be contended..."

Gao Fan stared at the sketch paper that covered the entire room.

Which of the Nailu Lingmeng in the picture is the national spirit that Gao Fan is willing to bestow on the people of Japan?

After drawing Narui Reimu, where can I find the third soul that can be used as a pillar?
