A fire allowed the teacher to show off his talents and change his career to become a criminal policeman who is an expert in solving crimes
Zhao Chengwen’s ancestral home is Penglai City, Heilongjiang Province. He was born in June 1943 in Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province to a railway worker. of. Because he died and remarried when he was 2 years old, he was raised until he was 10 years old. After his grandmother passed away, he relied on the state's pension and the support of someone 10 years older than him.
In 1964, after Zhao Chengwen graduated from the Fine Arts Department of the Harbin Academy of Fine Arts, he came to the remote Yichun forest area from Jiamusi to work as a teacher. On May 12, 1970, Zhao Chengwen was painting at home when he suddenly smelled a strong smell of smoke. He quickly got up and looked out the window and saw thick smoke billowing out of the small shed downstairs, and the flames were blowing in the wind. Keep running up. Zhao Chengwen dropped his paintbrush and ran downstairs to join in the firefighting.
The fire quickly burned to Building 17, where Zhao Chengwen lived, and then spread to several nearby buildings. The residents were in a mess, carrying masks and carrying things out of their homes. However, Zhao Chengwen saw that the firefighters were inexperienced, so he volunteered to help them set up water guns to put out the fire.
The fire burned for seven or eight hours. After the fire was put out, Zhao Chengwen was tired and hungry, so he sat on the ground for a while. He was soaked from head to toe, and his face and hands were blackened by soot. Only then did he remember that his lover had gone to his parents' house, and no one had saved the things at home. When he walked into his house, the scene in front of him was terrible, and the bedding was still smoking on the bed...
The fire caused more than 340 families to lose their homes and 15 people were burned. After Zhao Chengwen calmed down, he turned around and walked downstairs, intending to take a look at the small shed downstairs. From what he could tell, the fire seemed to have started in the shed.
The small shed is the warehouse of Lao Li's family, where he usually stores some firewood and sundries. Zhao Chengwen walked around the small shed twice and found that the door and roof were completely burned, but the four walls were still intact. There were charred sawdust on the ground. He rubbed it with his feet, revealing some unburned sawdust. sawdust.
People from the Yichun City Public Security Bureau came. Sun Yuzhong took this case very seriously and went to the scene in person to ask people present about the fire situation. The firefighters who had not yet evacuated recommended Zhao Chengwen to Sun Yuzhong, saying that he had been fighting the fire from beginning to end. Zhao Chengwen talked about the fire-fighting situation and said: "I think the fire started in the small shed of Lao Li's family. I just looked carefully around the small shed and there was neither a power supply nor a stove inside. , of course there is no source of fire. But the door of the small shed is burned out, and the lock on the door frame is still intact. In my opinion, someone may have set the fire."
Zhao Chengwen led Sun Yuzhong and others. People inspected the small shed, and most of them agreed with Zhao Chengwen's opinion. Sun Yuzhong said: "You are really good! I heard that you are from a junior middle school. No wonder you have so many ideas. Just help us solve the case!"
Of course, some people have different opinions and believe that negligence cannot be ruled out. Possibility of fire. If Lao Li himself entered the shed and threw a cigarette butt or the like, it might also cause a fire.
Sun Yuzhong sent someone to call Lao Li for questioning. Lao Li said: "I never smoke, so I can't throw away cigarette butts. Besides, I have been at work today, and the small shed at home is also locked, and I have the key."
In order to further analyze the case, it is necessary to A floor plan of a fire scene.
The Yichun City Public Security Bureau sent a technical section chief to draw the pictures. The section chief sat under the window of Building No. 17, looked left and right, took a pencil and drew, erased and drew again, but nothing looked like the drawing. Zhao Chengwen was very anxious next to him, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and said to him: "I study art. I will draw for you, okay?" The section chief quickly handed him the pencil and drawing board.
Drawing a floor plan is a piece of cake for Zhao Chengwen. He can draw it in just three strokes. Sun Yuzhong who was standing next to him saw it, praised it greatly, and asked: "Can you draw me a restoration diagram of this small shed?" Zhao Chengwen happily accepted the order.
When Zhao Chengwen was drawing the restoration map, the people around him gathered around Zhao Chengwen and praised him for his good drawing. But someone said: "Your painting here doesn't look like it, a piece of skin has fallen off here, and you didn't draw it.
"Zhao Chengwen took a closer look and saw that a piece of wall skin had indeed fallen off. He blew away the soot covering it with his mouth. It was almost certain that this piece of wall skin had fallen off recently, because the traces of the break were still very fresh. And there is a small crack that is not easy to find.
Zhao Chengwen quickly drew the restoration map, and marked all the parts clearly, especially the places where the wall skin had fallen off. Sun Yuzhong saw the restoration map. , held Zhao Chengwen’s hand and said: “I didn’t expect this to be the best on-site restoration picture I have ever seen! "
Zhao Chengwen said: "Director Sun, I have an idea. This may be a man-made arson case. "
Sun Yuzhong asked: "Why? Tell me your judgment. ”
Zhao Chengwen pointed to the restoration picture of the small shed and said: “Look here, the peeling off of the wall is caused by humans. The arsonist pulled down the wall covering, exposing a crack, and threw the source of the fire into the shed. I think the person who set the fire was Lao Li’s enemy, or at least had a conflict with Lao Li. ”
The investigators conducted a large number of investigations and evidence collection according to Zhao Chengwen’s ideas, and soon noticed Lao Li’s Xia Siqin. Some people reported that Lao Li was a very good person and usually did not argue with others, but in the past few days Tian and his son-in-law had a quarrel and almost got into a fight. Xia Siqin later threatened to kill Lao Li. Moreover, Lao Li's son-in-law passed by the shed every day on his way to and from get off work. He smoked very hard and always had a cigarette in his mouth.
The investigators interrogated Xia Siqin, and he quickly confessed the crime of arson. It turned out that he had borrowed 300 yuan from Lao Li and had been delaying paying it back. There was a quarrel over this. On the morning of May 12, Xia Siqin tore a crack in the wall of Lao Li's shed while he was on his way to work, and then threw the cigarette butt in...
Case The discovery process was completely consistent with Zhao Chengwen's analysis. After the arson case was solved, the Yichun City Public Security Bureau held a commendation meeting and spoke highly of Zhao Chengwen. After the meeting, Sun Yuzhong invited Zhao Chengwen to his office and said, " Xiao Zhao, isn’t it interesting to solve the case? Do you want to be a police officer? ”
In this way, Zhao Chengwen changed his career from an art teacher to a citizen.
Witnesses denied the portraits drawn by Zhao Chengwen again and again, and the alert Zhao Chengwen finally discovered the problem
On October 19, 1999, a gun case occurred in Shenyang that shocked the whole country. A self-employed person was shot and seriously injured, and 1 million yuan in cash was robbed. After on-site investigation and analysis, it was determined that this case was related to 1989. The armed robbery and murder case on March 8, 2011, and the subsequent armed robbery and murder cases were all committed by a group of people, and were therefore designated as the "March 8" series of cases. More than 30 people were injured and more than 3 million yuan in cash was stolen.
After the incident, the Shenyang Municipal Public Security Bureau immediately contacted the Criminal Police College and requested support from the portrait. Zhao Chengwen drew a picture based on the description of the witness. The portrait gradually appeared on the computer, and the witness recognized at a glance: “It’s him! "
After analysis, the police quickly identified the suspect as Wang Jiaren. When the police came to Wang Jiaren's house, Wang Jiaren asked with doubtful eyes: "It has been 10 years, and you can't even touch me. Come on, how did you find me this time? ”
A walking tractor was stolen in a rural area of ??a city in Jilin Province. The police did not find any valuable clues during the investigation. They only found the stolen walking tractor from the monitor of the highway toll station. Video of passing through the toll station.
Based on the suspect provided by the owner, the police interrogated a young man from the same village who denied stealing the tractor. The young man had to be let go. When the case-solving work was in trouble, someone proposed to go to the China Criminal Police Academy to find Zhao Chengwen. What the investigators never expected was that the blurry person on the video tape. , an image without eyes, Zhao Chengwen fiddled with it on the computer, and actually came up with a "photo" of a young man who had been interrogated!
After returning, they interrogated the young man again! , he still denied it in every possible way.
In order to further confirm, Zhao Chengwen asked the police to find a photo of the young man and conduct another identification. But the police only found a two-inch photo of the young man from 14 years ago. As a result, Zhao Chengwen fiddled around on the computer and finally turned into a "photo" that was exactly the same as the last portrait, and based on this, the suspect was identified!
A huge check was stolen from a certain city's port authority. After several days of police investigation, there was no progress in the case. With a glimmer of hope, the investigators took a witness to the China Criminal Police Academy and found Zhao Chengwen.
Zhao Chengwen turned on the computer and started working according to the program. The somewhat tired witness's description of the object lacked precise characteristics, and Zhao Chengwen made a difficult combination. A few hours passed, and portraits were drawn one after another, but the witnesses continued to deny them.
Over the years, Zhao Chengwen has drawn countless portraits of suspects, but he has never encountered such an eyewitness. He felt that this man seemed to be worried and worried. With many years of experience and intuition in dealing with criminals, a special image appeared in his mind.
So Zhao Chengwen poured a glass of water and delivered it to the witness. Zhao Chengwen discovered that when the witness picked up the water cup, the water in the cup made slight waves. After the witness finished drinking the water, Zhao Chengwen sat down and continued to modify the portrait with the witness. After a while, a portrait was output from the printer.
Zhao Chengwen took the portrait and looked at it seriously for a while, then looked at the witness, and suddenly said: "Hey, isn't this person you?" The witness shouted with frightened eyes. Said: "It's not me! It's not me!"
A few days later, a certain city's Harbor Public Security Bureau called Zhao Chengwen: "Zhao, you are so amazing, that kid himself did the check case! But we want to ask, how did you draw his portrait?"
Zhao Chengwen said with a smile: "I soon became suspicious of the true identity of this witness. So. , the process of painting is the process of psychological confrontation. No matter what he said, there are always some clues, although they are subtle, I still caught them. "
The portrait simulation software system developed by Zhao Chengwen, There is a skill that makes the skull "".
One day, the provincial Jingjiang City police found a body on the edge. Due to the high degree of decomposition, the head has turned into a bone and cannot be identified. Six months ago, a case involving a middle-aged woman occurred in a rural area on the outskirts of the city. When Zhao Chengwen was giving a lecture in Zhangjiagang City, Jiangsu Province, the captain of the Criminal Police Team of the Jingjiang City Public Security Bureau listened to the lecture and wrote to Zhao Chengwen asking him to help with the identification.
A few days later, two photos of the skull arrived in the mail. Zhao Chengwen used a portrait simulation software system to "resurrect" the skull into a "color photo" and immediately sent it to the Jingjiang Municipal Public Security Bureau by express mail.
Sure enough, the villagers unanimously determined that the person in the "color photo" was the middle-aged woman who disappeared six months ago. In order to further confirm, Zhao Chengwen asked the Jingjiang Municipal Public Security Bureau to send a photo of the missing woman. After examination with a trace overlay comparator, it was finally determined that the body was that of the middle-aged woman who disappeared six months ago.
Zhao Chengwen used high-tech means to "resurrect" the beauty from 2200 years ago
On December 3, 2001, East China Jiaotong University in Nanchang was building a dormitory building. When a small hillside was bulldozed in the courtyard, a hard layer of soil was suddenly encountered. The excavator made an unusual sound and the progress of the project was hindered.
The next day, the Archaeological Institute sent people to the site for inspection and initially concluded that it was a Ming Dynasty building. After excavation, the ancient tomb has five layers from the inside to the outside, namely the loess layer, the Sanhe soil layer, the brick coffin layer, the rosin layer, and the innermost layer is made of nanmu. Opening the coffin lid revealed a body wrapped in several layers of silk. After the first layer of wrapping cloth on the body was opened, there were more than ten jackets and sarongs, all purple-brown in color. Afterwards, they untied more than ten knots made of white cloth, peeled off the jacket and cloth skirt, and an extremely gorgeous long coat appeared in front of the archaeologists: the chest of the long coat was embroidered with exquisite patterns of dancing phoenixes and auspicious clouds, and the embroidery work was exquisite. , soft texture.
After the tomb owner's veil was lifted, the first thing he saw was a gold crown. The tomb owner's pale and shriveled face still has some elasticity. There are 64 gold and silver coins and various rare treasures placed around it.
After the ancient corpse was unearthed, it was immediately sent to the Jiangxi Provincial Museum. According to research, the owner of the tomb is the fourth Wu family of Zhu Dianpei, the grandson of the founder of the Ming Dynasty and King Jing of the Ming Dynasty.
Half a year later, Zhao Chengwen went to Nanchang to give lectures. As soon as he finished his lectures, Zhao Chengwen, who had always had a strong interest in archeology, came to visit the museum. He came up with an idea to restore the original appearance of the Ming Dynasty and let visitors have a glimpse of its past style, which would be the icing on the cake for the "special exhibition".
After Zhao Chengwen took pictures of the princess's body, he immediately returned to Shenyang, went into the laboratory, and operated the head portrait recovery system to restore the "photo" of the princess when she was 60 years old. The Jiangxi Provincial Museum was greatly surprised after receiving the "photo" and immediately put it on display in the "Special Exhibition", which received a sensational effect. After local media reported that the museum was overcrowded every day.
Zhao Chengwen then restored the "photo" of the princess when she was about 30 years old. At the same time, in order to realistically reproduce the princess's style at that time, Zhao Chengwen designed the princess's hairstyle based on historical materials, headgear in the tomb, the hairstyle of the figurines, and his own knowledge. As a result, the princess's graceful and luxurious appearance was vividly displayed in front of people: oval face, slender eyebrows, penetrating eyes, small mouth, and an intelligent temperament exuding between her eyebrows.
The skull restoration technology, which had nothing to do with the ancients, radiated brilliance on the princess 500 years ago, which made Zhao Chengwen have a strong interest in the restoration of ancient figures.
On April 28, 1972, after the body of the wife of the Prime Minister of Changsha in the Western Han Dynasty was unearthed in Mawangdui, Changsha, Zhao Chengwen visited it many times. After taking a "jade photo" of the princess 500 years ago, he immediately thought of the wife of the Prime Minister of Changsha unearthed in Mawangdui. So, he made a special trip to Changsha.
According to historical records, the prime minister’s wife was named Xin Zhui, and she was about 50 years old when she died. When Xin Zhui's body was unearthed in 1972, his skin was completely covered, his hair was still there, his fingerprints were clear, and his muscles were still elastic. Since it was the first time in the world that a wet corpse had been discovered, the discovery of Xin Zhui's body shocked China and the world.
Zhao Chengwen performed facial restoration for Xin Zhui. He referred to the photos taken of Xin Zhui's corpse, as well as relevant information about Mawangdui and unearthed silk paintings, and then used knowledge in art, medicine and other related fields to create it. After 14 days and nights, Zhao Chengwen drew 4 "jade photos" for Xin Zhui: one each when he was 18, 30 and 50 years old, and a profile photo when he was 50 years old.
As soon as Xin Zhui's "Jade Photo" was displayed, it immediately caused a sensation at home and abroad. The number of domestic and foreign experts, scholars and tourists who came here to visit increased sharply, vying to see this beauty from 2200 years ago. Cheers to Professor Zhao Chengwen for his miraculous work.
Later, Zhao Chengwen successively gave Ling Huiping and her wife of the Western Han Dynasty, the Queen of Loulan, the ancient corpse of Yingpan Mountain, the 5300-year-old Iceman Oz, the author of "" Wu Chengen and his wife, the ancient corpse of Hongshan Facial restoration has been carried out on corpses, emperors, ancient pharaoh Tutankhamen, Xiang Fei and other ancient Chinese and foreign people.
Zhao Chengwen borrows modern high-tech means to make ancient people meet modern people. He is a well-deserved "painter of time and space".
