Transmigrating into a book and becoming a female supporting character in a sadistic novel

Bai Qianyu and Jiang Qi came to the basement, which was a studio specially built by the Jiang family.

Jiang Qi turned on the dim light, turned on the video recorder, put on gloves, took the painting out of the box and spread it on the table, and put on the magnifying glass.

Bai Qianyu stood silently by the side, watching her movements.

Jiang Qi looked at it from close to the paper, then from a distance, then turned up a corner of it, and finally took a cotton swab, dipped it in water, and wiped the edge of the paper.

After a while, Jiang Qi left the table, turned off the cold light, and turned on the headlight. He took off the magnifying glasses on his eyes and asked Bai Qianyu, "Where did you get this painting?"

"I received it when I was collecting my old man's belongings. How is it?"

"This painting is ten feet wide and four feet long. It is a landscape painting, and the brushwork is typical light crimson landscape. The seal on it is from Huang Gongwang. Although there is no inscription, judging from the artistic conception, brushwork and technique, it should be from Huang Gongwang. It's just that..." Jiang Qi paused as he stroked the edge of the paper.

"How is it?" Bai Qianyu asked anxiously.

"This drawing paper is from the late Qing Dynasty. This paper is quite tough. The rice paper in ancient times was very thin. Generally, ink paintings require more than seven layers of rice paper to prevent the ink from spreading. This one only has four layers, and the ink is blurred to such an extent that I am sure the top and bottom layers have not been peeled off."

“So this is fake.”

"You can say that."

Jiang Qi looked at Bai Qianyu and thought for a while, then added, "Although it's not Huang Gongwang's original work, it was probably copied by someone at the time. The copyist's painting skills were quite good, not inferior to the original at all. And it has a history of more than a hundred years. It still has some collection value. I'll offer a reserve price of 20."

"Okay, wait for me to transfer the money to you." Bai Qianyu sighed, it was all in vain.

"How about you look somewhere else?"

"You're kidding. If you can't do this right, who can watch it?"

This is not Bai Qianyu deliberately praising Jiang Qi. It is the setting given by Lin Yue's novel. The Jiang family is the boss of their industry. But this industry is different from other industries. The boss of this industry represents the authority of the Jiang family. If you say it is true, it is true. If you say it is false, it is false. It is worth what it is worth.

Of course, this is also because they do have the strength and vision. And they can't set prices arbitrarily, otherwise they will have a bad reputation and no one will do business with them.

The two of them were downstairs, fiddling with it for a long time, and it was three hours later when they came up.

Lin Yue, who was watching TV, saw someone coming up and asked, "It's done, how is it?"

"Alas, it's a fake imitation, and it's an old imitation." Bai Qianyu felt more and more sad the more he thought about it. He said, how could the old man in his family leave such good things behind? He was so excited for nothing.

"Come on, stop being sad and eat some fruit."

"I don't want to eat anymore. I'm leaving now." After saying that, he said goodbye to Jiang Qi and the others.

But Jiang Qi stopped him: "Why are you leaving? It's almost time for dinner. Eat dinner first."

"I don't want to eat anymore. I have no appetite." Bai Qianyu's tone sounded a little listless.

Jiang Qi looked at him and sneered: "Okay, don't take the painting back. Leave it with me. I'll sell it to you at an auction in two days."

"alright."

Then the three of them sat there and watched TV together, but they were watching cartoons.

After watching for a while, Jiang Qi became a little restless. The sound of the cartoon was too loud, and for some reason, the voices of the characters seemed particularly sharp.

She glanced at Bai Qianyu, who also happened to be looking at her. The two exchanged glances and seemed to have reached a consensus. Jiang Qi then said to Bai Qianyu, "By the way, I have time to ask you something now."

"Okay."

"Then let's go walk in the yard and talk."

"Walk."

Arriving at the yard, Bai Qianyu sighed: "Why does little Ayue like watching cartoons so much? She was watching when I came this morning. She's still watching it all afternoon."

"Because the things I showed her the most before were cartoons." Jiang Qi's voice was very soft as if she was talking to herself.

"Ah?" He didn't hear clearly.

"Nothing. By the way, I really have something to ask you about Lin Yue." Jiang Qi's tone became serious.

"You said."

"Where is her injury? How serious is it?"

"Head, the serious injuries are all on the head. When she was brought in, her skull was cracked, causing a concussion. She was not conscious and had no clear cognition for two weeks after she was out of danger. The skull crack should be the main cause of her amnesia."

Jiang Qi nodded. Because Jiang Qi had the original owner's memories, she believed that Lin Yue must have them too, but she asked Lin Yue carefully. But Lin Yue just said that she had nothing, so there was only one possibility, that this body really had lost its memory.

"By the way, there is something I should tell you."

"You said."

"The injuries she suffered in the car accident were very strange. Logically, if a person's head was seriously injured in a car accident, then the internal injuries would definitely be more serious. However, her internal body was only slightly damaged and there was no problem at all. Moreover, the wound on her head looked more like she had been hit by a blunt object."

"What?" Jiang Qi was shocked.

"I have already told the police about these things. The police have also opened a case for investigation. The police suspected that it might be an attempted revenge killing, but she has lived abroad for many years and has not been in China for a long time and has not come into contact with many people. It is a bit difficult to investigate. The place where she had the car accident was remote, there were no cameras and no witnesses. She herself does not remember anything."

"So how was she rescued?"

"Someone called the emergency number. The person who called didn't hesitate to ask 120 to send the patient directly to my place."

"Didn't they say there were no witnesses?"

"The police said the person who called was the police officer in charge of investigating the case. He happened to pass by on his way to visit the graves. He saw smoke on the road below. He hurried down to see that the car was completely on fire, and Lin Yue was lying next to the car."

"Is that so?" Jiang Qi thought for a moment and then asked, "Which branch is handling this case? Have you seen the policeman?"

"They are from the Chaoyang Branch, but I have never met them. The people who came to record the statements were all recorders."

"Okay, I'll take her to find out in a couple of days."

After talking with Bai Qianyu, Jiang Qi felt a chill rising from her back unconsciously. The matter of Lin Yue's car accident must be clarified. Otherwise, she would not be able to rest easy.
