"Teacher, have you heard about Sister Donna?" Diana suddenly ran over and asked.

The "Donna" in Diana's mouth is a very special and well-known female painter in New Orleans, but her fame and speciality does not mean that her paintings are highly accomplished or sold well, but because she almost only paints A theme, that is everything in the flame, is quite shocking at first glance, but it is limited by the pen power, so there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Unfortunately, the flaming female painter died in the flames a few days ago, that is, she set herself on fire in the studio. Although the reason is not clear, many people who gloat over the misfortune say that it is because she paints flames every day. , so I offended Vulcan, so I took her away. This is a bit like the rumor that the ninth uncle Lin Zhengying died and Zhang Zhen, who told ghost stories...

Abandoning these wild thoughts in her mind, Tangning replied casually, "I heard about it, it's a very regrettable tragedy!"

"You also believe that Sister Donna committed suicide?" Deanna asked with wide eyes.

"But that's what the police said!" Tangning replied with a shrug.

"That Sheriff Sterling didn't investigate seriously at all. I never believe that Sister Donna will commit suicide. She must have been killed by someone!" Deanna said bitterly.

"Do you have any evidence for that?" Tangning asked with a frown.

I saw Diana nodded and replied: "Of course there is, and she also knows who the murderer is!"

"Who is it?" Tangning asked curiously.

"Oliver, Oliver Huss!" Deanna replied word by word.

Although Mr. Huss, Tangning, was not familiar with him, he knew him. He was a well-known art dealer in New Orleans, and was well-known in the circle for being stingy...

"Why do you think it's him?" Tangning asked.

Deanna explained "" "Because he bought a lot of paintings at a very low price before Donna's sister was alive, and then sold them at a high price in his gallery today under the name of Donna's sister's dying painting exhibition, you say if he didn't know Donna's sister in advance. If something goes wrong, how can you buy so many of her paintings?"

There has always been a rumor in the painting world that dead painters are the best painters. First, art dealers can use the painter's death to boost his works; second, because the painter is dead, there will be no new works. If it appears, there will be one less when selling one, so it is beneficial for the painter to maintain or even push up the price.

Therefore, some art dealers bought works of seriously ill or elderly painters out of speculation to hoard them, but Donna is only in her thirties this year, and she is not older than Tangning. This suspicion is actually normal!

Just relying on suspicion is useless, after all, there is no evidence, so Tangning advised, "Although Mr. Hus's actions are indeed abnormal, but it cannot be said that he is a murderer, after all, he is also a rich man, so he can't commit crimes. Go kill with this money!"

"But it's worth checking him out too, right?"

After Diana's persistent insistence and coquetry, Tangning finally couldn't stand it anymore and decided to go to Hus's place. Even if she didn't investigate anything, at least it would be good to see Donna's dying painting exhibition.

But unfortunately, before Tangning arrived at the exhibition, news came that the exhibition had caught fire. Only one of the masterpieces, the flaming phoenix, which was placed outside, survived.

Hearing this news, Diana couldn't accept it for a while: "Why is Sister Donna's life so hard, she was just caught in the fire... Now her painting has been burned again, is she really offended? Vulcan?"

"Hey, didn't you just say that Donna was killed by Huss? Why are you saying that she was the **** of fire now?" Tangning asked aside.

Diana explained: "It's impossible for Hus to burn the painting by himself? Then what does he rely on to make money? So it can only be done by Vulcan. Maybe he feels that he is not relieved to burn Donna's sister to death, and wants to burn it. Burn her paintings!"

Tangning was against it, "That's not necessarily true! Let's go, let's go to the gallery!"

"It's all burned, what's there to see?

of? "Diana asked in confusion.

"I want to verify a conjecture in my heart!" Tangning replied casually while instructing the driver to speed up.

When they arrived at the gallery and saw the scene being burned by the flames, Tangning snorted coldly, "As expected!"

"Sure enough?" Diana asked curiously.

Tangning replied confidently, "Although I don't know if Miss Donna was burned to death by Vulcan, I can guarantee that today's fire has absolutely nothing to do with Vulcan! Come, let's go to Sheriff Klein and report to him. Eucalyptus!"

At the police station, after listening to Tangning's description, Chief Klein frowned and asked, "Tony, do you mean today's fire was man-made?"

Tangning nodded and replied, "That's right, and it's probably Mr. Hus who did it! Normally, art exhibitions are held in galleries, but today's art exhibition is a shed set up in an open space, so even if A fire won't burn the gallery, and those sheds aren't worth much!"

"But even so, Mr. Hus doesn't need to do this! Because he hoarded so many of Miss Donna's paintings just to make money? Now that they have been burned, how can they make money?" Sheriff Klein asked inexplicably. Dao~www.novelbuddy.com~ Tangning explained, "This is why you don't understand the tricks of these black-hearted painting dealers. It is true that you can make money by hyping leftovers, but the premise is that the quality of the leftovers must be similar, and Miss Donna's paintings To be honest, it's still a little bit worse, and this flaming phoenix is ​​okay. On the other hand, there are too many posthumous works of Miss Donna, and it is difficult for this painting to be highly popular! So..."

Before Tangning could finish her sentence, Sergeant Klein interrupted, "So this Mr. Hus simply created scarcity artificially, and directly burned these leftovers who were not skilled enough. Leave this flaming phoenix of the highest level, so that there is only one left of Miss Donna's posthumous work, and it can be sold for a high price!"

"That's right, that's the truth! And this time it's a fire again, which can further deepen Miss Donna's reputation as a flame painter and the rumors of Vulcan's anger. The topicality and mystery are even greater, which is completely in line with the hype!" Tangning added.

PS: Push a small record of working in Stormwind City. In the early stage of this book, the feeling of a little person trying to become stronger but being confused is very real. The only problem is that this author is famous for opening the beginning well, so I don’t think so. I know what's going on later, but the first one or two hundred chapters are definitely fine, and there are fewer and fewer WOW fans who can watch now...
