Chapter 249 The clues still have to be discovered by yourself
The nagging bone mask has been silent since he came in just now.
Scared.
There seemed to be an extremely terrifying oppressive force in the wooden house. It was invisible and the source could not be felt, but this oppressive force was real. This feeling was especially obvious for the bone mask that had been in the junk alley for a long time.
It's like a sheep being taken into a tiger's lair. All that's left is fear, and there's no way to speak.
It wasn't until Lin Mo secretly asked it if he could tell what the painting was that the Bone Mask said in a very low voice: "I don't understand."
Bai asked.
Lin Mo knew that he could only rely on himself at this time.
"Kid, have you ever learned to draw?"
"No."
"Can uncle have time to teach you?"
"good!"
"By the way, uncle doesn't know your name yet."
"My name is Tiantian!"
"My God, what's your father's name?"
"My father's name is Zhang Shujiang."
"What about your mother?"
"My mother's name is Liu Xiaomei,"
Lin Mo was studying the paintings and chatting with the children.
The effect was remarkable. After such a pull, the little boy named Tiantian seemed to have forgotten to ask about the painting, but Lin Mo knew that the matter was not that simple.
Because the sense of crisis like a ray of light on the back and a claw in the throat is still there and has not disappeared.
Sure enough, he was so fierce that he asked every day: "Uncle, have you guessed it?"
This kid is not easy to deal with.
"Tiantian, your paintings are so good. Uncle, I have to take a closer look and make a guess." Lin Mo quickly continued to interrupt: "By the way, I just heard you say you were waiting for dad, why didn't you wait for mom?"
Lin Mo's attention was now focused on this painting, and he couldn't guess that something big was going to happen there, so he might not have even noticed what he was talking about.
"Dad said that after mom dies, she will go to another world. It will be many, many years before we can see her." The children's words are always innocent.
Lin Mo could only think of him as a miserable child who lost his mother early in his life.
"Then it will be hard for dad to take you by himself." Lin Mo discovered a serious problem. He couldn't figure out what this painting was.
Too abstract.
The main thing is that they are similar to everything and have a little bit of everything.
A bit like a person.
It also looks a bit like certain animals.
Still like a house.
Lin Mo came to this conclusion after observing for a long time and carefully analyzing every line.
How to determine this? To say that this painting is of a specific thing, person, or animal can be correct, but it can also be incorrect.
But the biggest problem is that the right of interpretation belongs to Tiantian.
He has the final say whether it's right or not.
This is very troublesome.
Who knows what this little kid wants to draw?
You still have to guess what he's thinking.
Lin Mo's heart suddenly moved at this moment, and he looked at the other paintings on the table.
Generally speaking, if children draw paintings from the same period, there will be a certain degree of coherence. If the painting just now was of a rabbit, relatively speaking, you can look at the patterns of other paintings to deduce the content of all the paintings.
After all, most children draw pictures to express their views on things and their inner thoughts.
So Lin Mo asked a very critical question at this time.
"Tiantian, were these paintings painted while you were waiting for dad?"
"Yes!" Tiantian nodded.
This is a very important clue.
Lin Mo has also been lonely. Five years ago, one night, he was waiting for his father to come home.
As a result, I didn't wait all night, and what I finally got was bad news.
Lin Mo understood the feeling of waiting.
Especially a child who is only five years old must be thinking about wanting his father to go home early to accompany him.
Therefore, these paintings should be related to his father, at least indirectly.
After all, there are relatively few things that a five-year-old child can come into contact with, and the first step in drawing is definitely to start with the familiar things around him.
people.
Or things.
Or something derived from both.
Lin Mo started to look around.
He noticed a rabbit doll on the bed.
It's a bit worn and dirty. It hasn't been washed for an unknown amount of time.
Lin Mo asked directly: "Tiantian, is the rabbit you drew the one on the bed?"
Tiantian turned his head to look and nodded.
Got it right!
Sure enough, the world of children is very simple. What they draw will only be limited to their cognition, the environment they are in, and the things they see.
So, the clue may be in this house.
Lin Mo immediately stood up and took the paintings to compare.
He saw a shabby poster on the wall.
Above is a woman in a swimsuit.
Lin Mo immediately took out a painting for comparison. There was a strange man in the painting, but it could be vaguely seen that his movements were very similar to the woman on the poster.
But if he hadn't looked at this poster, Lin Mo would never have guessed that this was a beauty in a swimsuit.
So, this Tiantian is a soul painter.
Now there are two supporting evidences.
One is a rabbit on the bed, and the other is a poster on the wall.
In other words, Tiantian's paintings are all things that already exist in the house, but because Tiantian's imagination has been added to the painted things, they are very different from the actual items.
But you can still see it more or less.
That's enough.
Now that we have this layer of inference, then according to this logic, we can just keep looking. If anything is similar to the painting in your hand, it must be it.
Soon, Lin Mo discovered something else.
In the picture book in the drawer, Lin Mo found the two story techniques of "Wolf in the Forest" and "Smart Hunter". There are pictures on the cover of the book.
But he didn't find the corresponding painting among these paintings.
Nothing similar at all.
But these two books have obviously been looked through and worn out. Logically speaking, if you have to draw every day, you can't ignore these two books. They are also the only two story books in the house.
Unless, these two elements are in the painting he is guessing.
After careful analysis, Lin Mo seemed to see the characteristics of a wolf, such as claws and the big tail.
But there's obviously more than just wolves in the painting.
There are also hunters.
If these two elements are taken into consideration, then Lin Mo can at least determine part of the content in this painting.
There are hunters, there are wolves, and the hunters are hunting wolves.
So what are the thick lines around it?
house?
Lin Mo's heart moved and he understood.
At this time, Tiantian also came over and asked: "Uncle, can you guess it? Come on, I'm counting down for you, three...two...one..."
Lin Mo said: "What you drew is your father hunting a wolf, right in this room."
Tiantian was stunned.
There was a look of surprise and surprise on his face.
I guess it was a complicated expression that I thought the uncle shouldn't be able to guess, but I hoped he could guess it.
"You guessed it right, uncle, you are so awesome. Someone has guessed it before, and you are the second one to guess it right. I give you a thumbs up every day!" The little boy gave you a thumbs up.
