Nie Cong was a little disappointed, but then he thought it was normal.
There were many weird people in this world, especially those with real skills.
Just like that famous chess player in their city. He was a very strange person.
As she was rubbing her sore wrist, Gu Yundong didn't know that he had made up an excuse for her.
She hadn't painted for a long time, and she had felt a little rusty, but thankfully, she had slowly recovered her touch.
Gu Yundong was an orphan in her previous life, and she did not fare well in the orphanage.
She was adopted when she was five years old, but only after half a year, the couple that adopted her died in a car accident.
She was sent back to the orphanage, and she didn't know who did it, but the rumor spread that she was a star of disaster and that she killed the couple.
Because of that rumor, she had no friends at the orphanage and the Dean also didn't like her.
The resources of the orphanage were scares, so the many children in the institution would fight openly and secretly against each other to have enough food and clothes.
Gu Yundong was often bullied, but every time there was a conflict, the dean would end up punishing her.
So she had known since she was six years old, that she had to support herself and could not afford to be weak.
She received no support from the orphanage, but she worked hard and was admitted to college.
After her classes, she would work part-time.
At that time, the major she was most interested in was Art. But studying Art was expensive and time-consuming, and as she lacked both, she had no choice but to give up.
Sometimes, she could not help but feel the need to draw, so she would go to the art academy to take classes.
She was very talented, so even if she studied intermittently, her paintings were amazing.
Especially portrait painting, even her teacher couldn't help but feel it was a pity that she couldn't pursue her education regularly.
He even applied to a scholarship for her so that she could go to college, but Gu Yundong refused.
For people whose future was uncertain, hobbies were sometimes a luxury.
But she didn't expect that what she had learned back then could be used here.
She rubbed her wrist for a while and asked Nie Cong and Xiao Bing, who were still holding the paper while continuously praising her work, "So, is this okay?"
The two nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, of course, it's okay."
Nie Cong took out another piece of paper with an eager smile on his face, "Draw two more."
"Just two, no more." She began to miss the copier a little.
With the first picture being done, the second and third pictures were drawn much faster.
Not long after, Nie Cong gathered the three portraits, preparing to leave, "Quickly, I need to go back to the Yamen and send people with this to arrest this criminal. Someone must have seen him."
He was about to leave, when Gu Yundong hurriedly grabbed him back, "Wait a minute."
"What's wrong?"
"About the origin of this painting, you have to keep it a secret for me. I don't want to be targeted by that vicious criminal. I still have my family to protect."
Nie Cong paused, his expression becoming serious, "Don't worry, not only yours, but also the identity of the painters who drew the other wanted posters are also kept secret. I'll only tell the magistrate about this painting, I swear. There won't be a fifth person who will know about this."
The soldier standing next to him also nodded seriously, "Yes, don't worry girl."
To be honest, he didn't even know exactly what this girl looked like, she was too ... dirty.
Only then did Gu Yundong let go of his arm. Nie Cong then hurriedly rolled up the paintings and quickly left with the Xiao Bing.
After they left, Gu Yundong also decided to leave.
As she was standing up, she suddenly widened her eyes and slammed on the table hard, "Oh, the matter of the silver hasn't been settled yet!"
