The person who came was none other than Li Xiaohe's good friend, Xu Jianjun, the captain of the criminal police team of the County Public Security Bureau, but now was not the time to greet each other, and the two only nodded and shouted "Lao Xu" and "Lao Li" respectively.

Xu Jianjun looked at Zhao Yinhe: "What's the situation?" ”

"Team Xu, that's the case......" Zhao Yinhe briefly talked about the whole process, and did not mention the smell of gasoline or the word "combustible".

After Zhao Yinhe spoke, the policeman and Hao Dazhu also asked questions from the captain and gave relevant answers.

Xu Jianjun didn't make any comments, but said to Zhao Yinhe: "Director Zhao, let your people control the scene, accompany the two witnesses, prohibit idle people from entering, let's go in." ”

"Yes, Captain Xu." After answering, Zhao Yinhe looked at his subordinates, "Control the scene and look at the witnesses." ”

"Captain, director, I still have urgent things to go back, when can I leave? I can't be here all the time, can I? The man who called the police raised doubts.

Xu Jianjun said coldly: "When I can go, I will let you go, stay honest." ”

Looking at the police captain in a police uniform and speaking in a very arrogant manner, the man who called the police moved his mouth, sighed, and did not speak.

Turning to Li Xiaohe, Xu Jianjun said: "Lao Li, you also go back, you can't help here." ”

Although he is usually a good friend, at this time, the other party has a tense face and a serious tone, and Li Xiaohe is not easy to say anything, so he has to answer "yes".

Xu Jianjun and Zhao Yinhe put on shoe covers respectively, walked side by side, and walked to the scene with puffs of black smoke. They wore gloves as they walked, and they also used flashlights to shine on the suspended wires.

Although he couldn't go any further, Li Xiaohe was unwilling to go back now, so he stood still, stretched his neck, and looked at the direction of the fire, expecting to find something.

Qin Mingsheng was the same as the township chief, but his eyes rolled slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

"Lao Li, I'll go to you in a while." Xu Jianjun turned around and said a word, and then came around the ruins of the fire site, around the entire ruins and broken walls, and slowly turned in circles.

After turning around twice, Xu and Zhao suddenly squatted down, stood up suddenly, whispered, and suddenly split up to look for them. As time passed, the small bags in the hands of the two of them were bulging, and the gloves had long since become black.

Without the reflection of the firelight, the scene was much darker, but under the light of Xu and Zhao's flashlights, there would still be puffs of black smoke and burning black things. It's just that although Li Xiaohe's neck is stretched out and his eyes are sore, he still doesn't see the reason.

Slightly stunned, Li Xiaohe turned around and walked towards the special car.

Qin Mingsheng immediately turned around and followed, walking in the same direction.

Soon, Li and Qin got into the car. Li Xiaohe said directly: "Go back to your hometown." ”

Cheng Jianfeng didn't say anything, but directly started the car and slowly ran towards the highway.

Along the way, no one spoke, and a dull atmosphere permeated the car. There is only "bar", "bar", and the sound of tires rolling up mud and hitting the bottom of the car rings from time to time, and I don't feel irritated to listen to it.

"Zi", "tsk", still weird brake sounds, and the car stopped in the township government compound.

Pushing the car door and getting out of the car, Li Xiaohe walked straight to the middle aisle.

Qin Mingsheng hesitated, looked at his watch, and did not catch up, but ran to his room.

Opening the door and entering the room, Li Xiaohe sat straight behind the desk, leaned back in the chair, frowned and pondered.

……

"Tuk tuk", "tuk tuk", there was a knock on the door, waking up the people who had fallen asleep behind the desk.

Li Xiaohe opened his astringent eyes, and was slightly stunned before he understood what was going on. Hurriedly said "Wait", got up from his chair, and walked quickly to the door.

Coming behind the door, stopping his steps, Li Xiaohe asked again: "Lao Xu, is it you?" ”

"Who else is it not me?" Xu Jianjun's voice sounded, "We stayed up all night, and you fell asleep." ”

"Where did I sleep? Always waiting for you. While speaking, Li Xiaohe opened the latch and opened the door.

Standing at the door were Xu Jianjun and Zhao Yinhe, both of whom had a pair of rabbit eyes - red and smelled of charcoal.

Xu Jianjun strode into the room: "Lao Li, you said that you were waiting for me, but you plugged this door tightly, are you guarding against me or what?" The executive deputy head of the township came to you in the middle of the night to discuss work? Then you should leave the door open. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yinhe showed a playful expression.

Li Xiaohe hurriedly closed the door and beckoned the two: "Hurry up and sit down, I'll get some water, and don't talk about that nonsense." ”

Xu Jianjun sat on the sofa and shouted: "Don't make thin water, I've been busy for most of the night, I'm starving, hurry up and get some supper or something for the two of us." For your little, I rushed overnight, and I almost didn't exhaust Lao Xu to death. ”

"Okay, nothing else, let's make bucket noodles by yourself." Li Xiaohe turned around and went to the back room, and quickly took out two buckets of instant noodles, as well as some other bits and pieces, "Why did you rush all night?" ”

Xu Jianjun snorted: "Don't mention it." Today, oh no, it should have been yesterday. Yesterday during the day, I went to the capital to run errands, and I said that I would stay there at night, and I even found a place to live. But just as I was about to lie down and go to sleep, I received a call from the bureau, saying that I had an important task the next morning. I had no choice but to get up again, say hello to the people who went with me, and drive back overnight, when it was already half past ten in the middle of the night.

When I turned the county border, it was early in the second half of the night, and when I looked at my watch, it was already past one o'clock in the morning. At this time, I received a call from the bureau, saying that the mission was canceled. Isn't this a human being? But it's okay, I played Lao Tzu in the game, and Lao Tzu went back to play with his wife. As soon as I thought of that, I came to my senses, kicked the accelerator, and went out for more than ten miles. At this time, another call came, it was from his subordinates, saying that the command center had broken down the task and asked who to send.

Originally, I could just send two people, but I was cheap and asked for details. As soon as I heard that it was you, I happened to be close to the county seat, and I was close to you, so I took a positive look and volunteered to take this job. It took another forty or fifty minutes to drive here halfway through, and I almost overturned the car in the heavy rain, which was really unlucky. Tired and starved. ”

"Captain Xu, it's hard work." Li Xiaohe smiled "hehe" and pushed the soaked barrel noodles forward, "High-end supper, instant noodles, salted duck eggs, ham sausages, mustard, and a cup of high-end fragrant tea." ”

"Senior fart." Xu Jianjun stretched out his hand to pick up the ham sausage, went to two in three times, removed the outer packaging, and ate it in two bites. Then he took the instant noodle bucket, forked the noodles inside, and ate the big pieces.

Soon, Xu and Zhang finished eating, and one lit a cigarette and smoked it.

After a hiccup, Xu Jianjun talked about the investigation: "Lao Li, there are all kinds of signs that this is a case of man-made arson. After careful investigation and interrogation of witnesses, Director Zhao and I found three grounds. First, the rain came in time, not only extinguishing the fire, but also so that many bricks did not burn, and some wooden blocks were not burned. On top of these things, we find the composition of gasoline. Director Zhao also told me that when I first went, I smelled gasoline. If it has been verified that there is gasoline, then this designation is artificially spilled.

Second, on the dash cam of the alarm, we saw a fire process at the fire scene at that time. The fire started at the back wall of the southwest corner of the storehouse, then the entire back wall was on fire, and then spread to the front of the house. There are no residents on the back wall of the storehouse, it is all barren grass and farmland, so there can be no open fire, and there are no power lines, so naturally there will be no fire, only arson. The fire situation described by Hao Dazhu is also consistent with the video taken by the dash cam.

3. In the grass on the back wall, we found a small part of the burnt white cotton cloth, wrapped around a burnt stick, which seemed to have gasoline on it. The cotton cloth is relatively new, and the same cloth was not found in the main house on the north side of the courtyard, and Hao Dazhu also denied that the cloth belonged to him, so it is very likely that the white cotton cloth was brought by someone else and used specifically for the purpose of starting a fire.

Based on these three points alone, it has been possible to determine that the arson was man-made, but further tests are needed, and we will investigate the scene again during the day. Unfortunately, the torrential rain saved some of the evidence for us, but also destroyed the most important shoe prints or tire prints. Otherwise, one more piece of evidence can be obtained, and some of the characteristics of the suspect may also be analyzed. ”

"Damn, I guess it's arson. The bastard burned down the big warehouse with a fire, and I'm still waiting to use it in the near future. Li Xiaohe scolded.

"The house burns and burns, and no casualties are better than anything. Did you know? There is a lot of luck here, otherwise you, Township Chief Li, are afraid that you will be in trouble. Xu Jianjun sneered, "At that time, the wires went to the east of the courtyard, and if it was to the west, it would definitely burn off the ground, so there might be no one from CLP." Fortunately, there was no fire fighting on the spot, otherwise once the wind started, it would be always troublesome to wrap the fire on the body, and I would have to leave a few scars on my face at the very least. The most fortunate thing is that the rain came in time, otherwise it would have burned to the main house, and the wires would naturally burn out, and the key was that the old janitor still had sulfur. If sulfur is exposed to fire, it will produce harmful gases, and once people inhale too much, it will be poisoned or carcinogenic. Luckily, luckily, you kid is stealing the fun. ”

Li Xiaohe couldn't help but be afraid: "Oh, this guy, it's really lucky, otherwise if there is one, it will be enough for me to drink a pot." It seems that I, Li Xiaohe, just didn't do anything harmful, God will help, and let me go at the critical moment. ”

Xu Jianjun waved his hand: "You go to the side, and talk about superstition, it's useless to talk less." Let's provide some clues and find the suspect. By the way, the policeman and Hao Dazhu can basically rule out suspicion. Since it was arson, it must have been for venting, revenge, or achieving some purpose. As for those targeted, it is not clear. But Shuangsheng Township, Hao Dazhu, including you Li Xiaohe or other township leaders, as well as that courtyard, may be targeted. Think about it, is there such a person or thing that is suspicious from your point of view? ”
