Today is destined to be an extraordinary day in Wanghu Town, because a fire broke out in the big market, and the fire affected more than a dozen people's homes.

It was found at 3 o'clock in the morning, and the fire was extremely fast, and it was initially estimated that it was caused by a gas leak. The fire was not extinguished until more than 4 o'clock in the morning, and the casualties and financial losses were unknown for the time being.

Then, according to the inspection of the surrounding neighbors, it was found that the most burned down should be the Zhang Ji grocery store, almost the entire house was burned to the ground, and it was almost impossible to repair, as for the finances of it, there was no need to think about it.

The people who saw this scene in front of them, whether they were passers-by or neighbors here, all had palpitations, feeling that it was so peaceful here yesterday, and it turned to ashes overnight. I can't help but sigh that the world is impermanent.

"What a! Brother Zhang has worked hard to support Zhang Ji's signboard for decades, and a fire is all gone! A neighbor who seemed to be nearby couldn't help but say with moist eyes.

There are other people around who may not have a good relationship with Boss Zhang, and they can't help but sympathize when they see Zhang Ji being burned like this.

In contrast, the surrounding houses look much better, at least they can be repaired and can continue to live in.

An old man who seemed to be helping to put out the fire was leaning to the side tiredly at the moment, with an unusual light shining in his eyes, and he wanted to say something several times, but he didn't say it.

Those who are here do not know that the big market is now facing demolition, and some shops are reluctant to demolish it for various reasons, so they quarrel with the team sent by the contractor. Looking at this fire, if it is possible that it is not an accident, then the spearhead must be pointed at that team, so naturally no one dares to open this mouth casually.

The old man's eyes flashed, he stood up for a while, patted the dust on his body and left, leaving only one sentence: "Before the day of demolition, it is gone, it is really missing a lot of nostalgia, it's a pity......"

But this place is not calm because of the departure of the old man, because the police investigated the cause of the accident and locked down this place to a certain extent.

After a morning of investigation, the police finally gave a preliminary result: because there were not many households, and they were found in time, no casualties were found for the time being, and the statistics affected a total of 14 people's houses, the most serious is the Zhang Ji grocery store, which is expected to be worth more than 100,000 goods were burned, and the remaining sundries were tens of thousands, a total of 200,000 losses. In contrast, as the second most serious two neighbors, the loss was less than 10,000 yuan.

It was supposed to be an obvious accident, but a trainee police officer became suspicious of the fourteen houses. Because everybody knows that yesterday was the fourteenth day of the Lunar New Year.

On the 14th day of the Lunar New Year, 14 houses were affected by the fire, and some of them were burned to the ground, because according to the spread of the fire, at least one or two of them should have been spared, but they were affected for no reason, which makes people think that someone did it deliberately.

As a result, the police had to start interrogating the neighbors around the big market one by one.

Chen Zhi turned out to be one of them, and the reason: he was not only one of the firefighters, but also an employee of Zhang Ji.

"Your name is Chen Zhi, right?" The police officer who first raised the suspicion interrogated Chen Zhidao.

"Yes."

"I see you're involved in the firefighting, so do you know when the fire started?" The police officers kept their eyes fixed on Cheung Kee, a student and firefighter in front of him, who was said to be mentally retarded.

"I don't know, I just got up in the middle of the night to pee and found that it was on fire, and a lot of people were shouting......"

"Wake up in the middle of the night...... How do you sleep here? The police officer was stunned for a moment, found a little unexpected clue, and quickly recorded it with a pen.

"Because the boss's new store is about to open, they all go to live in the new store, and there is no one to guard here, so they want me to come."

"Boss......" The police officer couldn't help but be shocked after hearing this, and hurriedly called another quiet official to observe, and chased, you quickly continued: "Your boss Zhang Ji has opened a new store?" ”

"Yes, the boss's new store is just across the street from the Huaxia Bank business hall, a little bit in that big alley, and it will open today."

The two police officers were obviously very surprised when they listened to Chen Zhi's reply, because according to their report just now, Zhang Ji's goods were estimated to have been burned, and now it seems that they have already moved everything to the new store, so in fact this place is just an empty shell.

Next, in order to ensure that Chen Zhi was not lying, the two police officers took Chen Zhi to the new store. Many people who are also very curious have followed suit, and they all want to know when Zhang Ji actually opened a new store, but they don't know.

After all, this Wanghu Town is just a small place, and there are only four or five bustling streets, what will they not know about the ups and downs all day long? Even if you don't know, you should have heard about it.

And as their strange procession walked, it immediately attracted the attention of many people, and they couldn't help but follow the doors of the shops on the street curiously, and they all followed.

When this team arrives at its destination, I'm afraid there will be no less than 100 people.

Chen Zhi.

That's right, he has been silently replying to the policeman's questions just now, and he is extremely calm at the moment, even in the face of police interrogation and questioning, he has not reacted at all, and always has a natural look, which makes people inevitably feel that he is really a little stupid.

Besides, the things he answered were not stupid, and fortunately he got up in the middle of the night to pee, otherwise I am afraid that he would not have peed on the ground, and he would have to go to the sky to "rain".

Jokes are jokes, and the matter of Zhang Ji's new store is really exciting.

At this moment, they looked at Zhang Ji's newly opened supermarket, and they were all shocked. What a boldness this is, so far in Wanghu Town, the largest supermarket is still a rich supermarket, and this Zhang Ji in front of him is obviously more than twice as big as the rich family!

"Damn, I remembered, some time ago I found that this place seemed to be under construction, and I thought it was a residential building, but it turned out to be a supermarket!" When one person thinks about it, he can't help but regret that he didn't go in to check it out.

One person also said suddenly: "A few days ago, I also found that it seems to be being renovated here, and I haven't had time to go in to take a look, this is actually ......."

There were many people who followed, and they also said that they had seen it, but they didn't pay much attention to it because the building was inside.

As more and more people discussed, the topic gradually shifted to Zhangji Supermarket, and some people couldn't help but find that there were signs posted at the entrance of the alley, as well as announcements of opening discounts.

Seeing this, these people's eyes suddenly lit up, and where could they still bear it, a swarm of bees poured in.

Seeing this, the police had to ask Chen Zhi to call his boss out, and they had to ask Boss Zhang if they had any questions.
