An economic development zone in H city.

Under normal circumstances, when it comes to economic development zones, everyone can immediately think of high-tech industry clusters, all kinds of low-carbon and environmental protection top technologies, the park comes and goes are researchers in white coats, and there can be hundreds of millions of profits on a small scale quietly, for ordinary citizens, working here represents high wages and high benefits.

However, this economic development zone, although it is called a development zone, is not very close to the inside. There are enterprises here, but in the early days of reform and opening up, all kinds of enterprises were swarmed up when they made the most money, unplanned, simple and extensive, with low technical gold content, and some were even just small workshops supported by dozens of people, and they were just named after a lot of atmosphere. In the 90s of the last century, when the first wave of bankruptcy and bankruptcy came, these large and small enterprises were shut down, although the original old factories were almost demolished for more than 20 years, and many large enterprises were newly built on the original site, but as long as you are willing to look, the former dilapidated is still here.

There are many enterprises near the economic development zone, of course, the supporting residences have to keep up, and the housing prices here are much cheaper than those in the central district, so a lot of buildings have been built over the years, because the cost performance is not bad, and the occupancy rate is not low.

Uncle Yuan is an old resident here, in the era of planned economy, he worked as a worker in a nearby factory, and his wife, who had experienced the tide of layoffs, ran away with someone, and he tightened his belt to try his best to earn some money, so that he raised his three children. It is precisely because of the hard life he had in the past that Uncle Yuan, who is in his 70s, is very frugal in life and is reluctant to spend a penny. Although life is good now, the three children are still a good thing. The monthly living expenses given to him are enough for him to live comfortably, but it is a habit that he has developed over the years. It's not that you can change it.

In the weather when it is not raining, Uncle Yuan gets up early in the morning. Make a simple breakfast, after eating, go out slowly, put a few plastic bags in your pocket, and pick up and put them in plastic bags when you encounter a cardboard on the ground, empty water bottles, etc., and then sell them to the collectors of waste products.

In Uncle Yuan's own words, even if it is ten or twenty yuan, it is better than me staying every day. Can you buy a dish and prove that you are useful, right? And going out every day is the cheapest and most effective way to get fit, and he doesn't want to eat at home and wait to die.

If the weather is good and his body allows, Uncle Yuan will try to go farther. There are many factories and enterprises in their area, who knows where there will be unexpected surprises? Last time, in the old factory area that had closed down, Uncle Yuan picked up a large roll of copper wire, which was sold for a lot of money.

One day two months ago. The weather was not bad, the sky was cloudless, Uncle Yuan hummed a little song and started his routine walk, and he also wanted to go around the old factory area where he had been a few days ago.

Seven turns and eight turns. Uncle Yuan stepped on an inaccessible red brick road, and the cracks in the masonry were covered with moss, and it was very slippery for people to step on. The children in the family are not allowed to come here, and the old man is old. The body is not as responsive as young people, and there are usually not many people here. The mobile phone signal is even more intermittent, if you accidentally have an accident, it is really called every day, and the earth is not working.

But Uncle Yuan got the sweetness here last time, and he was itching in his heart, thinking that as long as he was careful, he should be fine, so he left the children's advice behind him and came up here.

The red brick road is not long, and it will come to an end in more than 200 meters. A broken wall blocked the way, Uncle Yuan got off the red brick path, walked to the left dozens of meters familiarly, set aside two shrubs and drilled in, a broken wall appeared in the field of vision, Uncle Yuan used both hands and feet, and quickly turned into the old factory area, looking like an old man in his 70s.

Last time, Uncle Yuan was mainly looking for the periphery of the factory, and this time, he planned to go into the factory to have a look.

The dilapidated factory building, the original color of the exterior wall has long been invisible, revealing the mottled old bricks inside, which makes Uncle Yuan feel sad for no reason. He used to work here after being laid off, although the salary was meager and the work was hard, but he still worked very hard, and it was difficult to find a job, where was his room to choose, but even so, this factory did not last longer than others, and finally closed down.

Uncle Yuan sometimes thinks that fortunately it was closed, if it hadn't been closed, I don't know if he would have died of cancer a long time ago. This factory is for the production of asbestos. Now everyone knows that the fiber of this kind of thing has a strong carcinogenic effect, but in that era when the economy needs to develop at a high speed and no one can eat, who can take care of it?

Then the land has been empty, as if forgotten in time, the vicissitudes of the outside world have nothing to do with it, for more than 20 years, it has remained the same, because of the remoteness, plus there used to be an asbestos factory, whether it is a new company or a real estate developer has tacit understanding to bypass here.

Eyes full of decay, even naughty children have been repeatedly warned by parents not to come to play in this neighborhood. Uncle Yuan sighed, avoided the place where there were too many glass fragments on the ground, and carefully walked into the factory.

After a while, he picked up a lot of iron pieces, it doesn't matter if they are rusty, just go back and polish them, this thing is good, it is much more valuable than a water bottle.

Uncle Yuan happily walked around the factory, not noticing the figure flashing outside the door, until he felt hungry, he stopped looking for it, and was ready to go back to get something to eat......

On that day, the residents and staff near the development zone saw the skyrocketing fire.

The fibers in the asbestos factory have not been scattered for more than 20 years, they are piled up, floating, and silent.

The withered grass on the periphery of the factory was ignited, at the beginning, there was only a yellow, red glittering tongue of fire happily and lively, running in a specific direction, followed by, the surrounding withered grass was also infected by the joy of the tongue of fire, they focused, joined, the burning withered grass flew up, hugged the companions in the distance, almost in the blink of an eye, it was all over the factory, the fire jumped and jumped, tearing the tranquility of the past here, as if wanting to break through the barrier of the wall, to extend to the outside.

But the silence of the walls but irresistibly prevents the fire from doing whatever it wants, and the world outside the walls does not belong to them, but is their paradise.

So they target the plant, they can feel the enthusiasm and desire for asbestos fibers, forgotten for decades, and they look forward to the moment when they are ignited and shine. A fire burned everything within the walls, and the factory that had been guarded for more than 20 years finally completed its final mission under the shaking of the fire.

A fire stirs up the beauty of the moment, burns out the previous decay, and brings this forgotten corner back into the public eye.

The firefighting teams sent by various enterprises and the firefighters who rushed to finally control the fire, there have been no people here for more than 20 years, no one expected that when the fire was extinguished and the scene was cleaned up to eliminate hidden dangers, a corpse would be found!

The corpse was burned black, and it was impossible to identify it at all, but although the mobile phone next to the corpse was burned, the SIM card was still intact, and Uncle Yuan's relatives were quickly contacted when he changed it to another mobile phone.

Uncle Yuan's three children arrived at the scene not long after, crying at the inhuman old father and almost turning their backs.

The forensic doctor concluded that the old man's left leg fracture occurred before he died, and his body was highly charred, and he should have rushed to escape after discovering the fire, but there was an accident, the leg bone was fractured, and the fire jumped too fast, so that he was burned alive in the factory, and the fire brigade gave that the cause of the fire was artificially poured gasoline near the fence and ignited.

Intentional arson, which also resulted in the death of one person, is a criminal case! The criminal police team of the Economic Development Zone Bureau of H City officially filed a case for investigation.

This case is so strange.

Generally, arson is either to burn down the place where you have been insured and disguise it as an accident in order to achieve the purpose of defrauding the insurance money, but this kind of arson for the purpose of making money should not cause casualties.

Either for the sake of life, with whom there is a deep hatred that cannot be resolved, never die, light a fire to kill the other party, it is said that this kind of death and life are the most painful, and the water and fire are ruthless, a bad manipulation, the harm is even put into themselves.

But how many years has that broken factory been empty? The local government wanted to auction it off several times, but no one bought it, and no one looked down on it. It's a ghost.

Let's talk about Uncle Yuan. Although the old man usually picks a little bit, and often has some contradictions with people, but those contradictions are not worth mentioning at all, either one day the old man is too noisy upstairs at night to rest, or the old man goes to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and takes more garlic from others to cause a quarrel, and so on. Although everyone thinks that Uncle Yuan is a stubborn and somewhat eccentric guy, but who can he make a mortal enmity with, who can be so ruthless as an old man in his 70s?

Although the largest LED manufacturer in the economic development zone is separated by a wall outside the old factory area where the fire started, the wall is more than five meters high, and there is no monitoring equipment installed on the wall, let alone eyewitnesses.

As a result, no clues could be found in the deliberate arson case in the old factory area of Dingxin Asbestos Factory, and it ran aground. Although Uncle Yuan's children felt sorry for their father for no reason, they had no choice but to do their best, and no one wanted to do it without clues, so they could only bury their father in a hurry, clean up their mood, and continue to live.

No one knew that somewhere in the city, a twisted soul was heading for an abyss from which there was no return.

For a long time, I could no longer get a good night's sleep, as soon as I closed my eyes, what I saw was the burning limbs dancing rapidly, dance is an art, I know, I didn't expect, the combination of fire and man, is also so wonderful, it can be called the most outstanding art in history - the art of life!

Just thinking about it makes me so excited! The art of life comes from my own hands! (To be continued......)
