Chapter 354 Drawing People from Bones
Han Xu and others had no choice but to follow!
After entering the office building of Nancheng Police Station, Han Xu and Miao Xiaofeng borrowed an office and some drawing tools. In fact, they just asked for some A4 paper and a few pencils.
I don't want anything else.
Of course Miao Xiaofeng complied with what he said, but it was still a bit unbelievable. With just these things, could he draw the appearance of the deceased?
Han Xu could only smile and stop talking. After all, facts speak louder than words!
For the next time, Han Xu locked himself in the office.
No one can be disturbed.
Qin Fen and the other three had no choice but to wait outside the office door, waiting for the next miracle to happen!
The two sisters, Miao Xiaofeng and Miao Xiaolan, returned to their jobs respectively, just waiting for Han Xu to draw the portrait before discussing the next case.
After all, the victim's identity information could not be found. This case is like a clever woman trying to make a meal without straw, a typical example of a person who has no power at all!
As for Han Xu, after entering the office, he sat on a chair, and the retrieved skull was placed on the table in front of him!
In fact, Han Xu was not so sure. He was just trying to be a living doctor. After all, it was his first time trying.
Generally speaking, if you have learned painting and sketching, you can also use a skull to draw some facial contours and facial features of the human body, such as the structure of the brow bone, the position of the cheekbones on the face, and the depth of the sunken eye sockets, as well as How straight and straight the bridge of the nose is, etc.
But at a deeper level, it cannot be restored!
For example, some facial muscles and fat distribution, such as the orbicularis oris muscle, masseter muscle, and laugh muscle around the mouth, or the cartilage on the nose, including the size of the tip of the nose, cannot be expressed by a single skull.
Therefore, the difficulty of drawing people based on their bones is evident, at least beyond the scope of most people’s cognition.
However, in the eyes of a true master, a skull can express far more than what is mentioned above.
Han Xu held the skull in his hand and felt the distribution of bone points bit by bit with the delicate touch of his fingertips, and then used a special soft tissue thickness measurement method to determine the trend of facial muscles...
In fact, the distribution of bone points in the human skull is extremely complex and dense, but in the eyes of a real expert, it is not necessary to find all the bone points.
Some even only need to determine the distribution of more than six bone points to roughly deduce the approximate appearance of the deceased!
After exploring the outline of the skull, Han Xu silently closed his eyes, and a virtual skull model instantly appeared in his mind!
Then, the collected data turned into thin connected lines, outlining the muscle trends on the skull bit by bit, gradually becoming fuller.
After a moment, Han Xu opened his eyes leisurely, already having a calculation in his heart.
In fact, drawing people based on bones is not that complicated, because theoretically speaking, as long as you master a few main features, the first is the shape of the face. For example, Xia people can be roughly divided into 8 face shapes, and secondly, you need to pay attention to the distance between the eyes and the nose. The distance, the distance between the nose and the mouth, the distance between the mouth and the chin, if you grasp these key points, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
Han Xu, on the other hand, roughly constructed a three-dimensional model in his mind, which was simpler and more intuitive!
In fact, the portraits of criminal investigators are not copies or imitations, but reasonable analysis and reasoning.
And Han Xu, who has a very superb reasoning ability, is even more comfortable in this situation. It is no exaggeration to say that he is like a fish in water.
Now that the three-dimensional model has been constructed in my mind, the next step is to draw it!
This process is relatively simple!
Han Xu's pen moved swiftly across the paper. After a while, a portrait of a girl appeared on the paper.
However, when Han Xu looked at the completed portrait, he had some inexplicable feelings.
Something seems not quite right!
This time, Han Xu was a little stumped.
"wrong!"
Han Xu muttered to himself, then simply crumpled the first completed portrait into a ball and threw it into the trash can nearby.
Then the second, third...
Until almost an hour passed.
Han Xu still couldn't grasp the most important point!
This is already the fifth portrait he has painted!
Every time he drew it, he would look at it for a long time, trying to resonate with the girl in the painting, but without exception, everything failed!
After finishing the fifth portrait, Han Xu took another look at the skull placed on the table and simply closed his eyes.
Empty everything!
Half a minute later, Han Xu seemed to have thought of something and opened his eyes leisurely!
Then he leaned over and took out the crumpled paper drawings he had drawn before from the trash can.
Then he carefully smoothed out these portraits and placed them on the table one by one.
one two three four……
Counting the last one, there are exactly five portraits!
Han Xu stared at these five portraits for a moment, his eyes gradually narrowed!
He finally found out what was wrong!
Eye!
The girls in the five portraits have five completely different pairs of eyes!
The eyes are the windows of the soul!
It is also the only organ that can convey thoughts!
No matter how Han Xu painted, he seemed to be stuck in a quagmire here!
He couldn't accurately grasp the thoughts and ideas of the deceased, so it was impossible to draw the most realistic eyes!
Han Xu was 90% sure that the portrait he drew was infinitely close to reality!
But the eyes were the only thing missing, and it couldn't be perfect!
Time passed by bit by bit, and Han Xu just stood there, as if he had entered a pure white world.
In front of him, there were five girls!
Each of them was looking at Han Xu, with different pupils and eyes...
"Han Xu, what's wrong with you?"
An hour later, Qin Fen pushed open the door of the office on time, but when he saw Han Xu's state, he felt something was wrong!
Seeing that Han Xu didn't reply, Qin Fen walked over quickly and shook his body.
At this moment, Han Xu just woke up from a dream, his eyes were no longer confused, but became extremely firm!
Then, under the attention of everyone, Han Xu took another piece of paper!
The brush in his hand was shaking like a shadow!
In a short while, a lifelike girl reappeared on the paper!
Qin Fen leaned over to take a look, his pupils shrank slightly, and he couldn't tell what he felt!
Chengzi and Li Le looked at the portrait drawn by Han Xu and looked at each other at the same time. Even though they had never seen this girl, they still said in unison, "She is... Xiao Keba?!"
"What Xiao Keba?!" Qin Fen asked in confusion.
