Chapter 53: The Earl's Fall (10)
The highway was a mess, with large expanses of sewage mixed with burned residue scattered all over the ground.
Just now, the car of Chairman Mujue, a blue Rolls-Royce Phantom, together with its driver, exploded on the road in front of the Mujue Building. The fire devoured this luxury car worth more than five million yuan and a young life mercilessly.
The lights of fire trucks, ambulances and police cars flashed again in front of the Moujue Building, and the terrible murder of the Mujue Group for two consecutive days made the haze completely shroud the blue crystal building.
"The deceased has been confirmed, it is the driver of the car, Luo Xiaofei." A police officer reports to Lao Lu.
Lao Lu nodded, frowned, exhaled a long breath from his nose, he looked at the car that was burned into a pile of rotten shelves and said, "Ouyang, you and I heard the explosion just now, can there be such a big battle when the car fuel tank explodes?" This is clearly a deliberate murder using a car*. ”
I said, "Yes, it was the explosion caused by the car*, but unlike a normal car*, this should be a homicide caused by a remote*." ”
“*?”
"Yes, if it were an ordinary car*, then the explosion should have occurred when the car was started, and the explosion would have been in the location where the car was parked. But you see, the car was clearly coming from somewhere else, and just as it was about to enter the Moujue Building, there was an explosion. Why didn't it explode on the way, or after entering the underground parking lot of the Muchak Building, but in front of the Muchak Building? I guess, first, that this explosion was a remote-controlled command, fixed-point explosion; Second, the killer wanted to use the explosion to warn the Mujue group; Thirdly, the killer was not willing to damage the Murjue Building. Then it is concluded that the murderer has a great relationship with the people inside the Mujue Group, and even the people of the Mujue Group. ”
"According to what you say, I think of a person, Mu Wei's younger brother, Mu Kui."
I said, "I can't deny that he is the most suspicious person, but there is no evidence that he was the one who carried out this bombing." I thought we should ask her. When I finished speaking, my eyes fell on Jiang Yinglan, who was crying fiercely on the side of the road, and beside her, the door of the ambulance was slowly closing. It's just that this ambulance, in the true sense of the word, is already a hearse.
The blue ambulance warning light gradually faded away, and Jiang Yinglan, accompanied and supported by several middle-aged women, slowly walked towards the Mujue Building.
I lit a cigarette and looked at her sad figure, not rushing forward to ask, because I knew that at this time, I could not ask anything.
After that, the Explosion Identification Section made a preliminary analysis of the car explosion, and I was shocked by the results of the analysis, the explosion point of the car explosion was actually on the roof of the car. A colleague in the identification department made a good analogy that the Rolls-Royce Phantom was bombed by a bomber. In this peaceful era with clear skies, where could a bomber pop up? It's puzzling. Of course, what caused the car to explode and burn in the end will have to wait for further analysis by the Explosion Identification Section.
Mu Wei fell from the building, Luo Xiaofei was killed, no matter who can think of these two murders, they must be related. But where is the connection between them? For a while, it is unknown.
After the bombing, me, Tang Zhenguo, and Lao Lu decided to investigate at the Mujue Group. Although the public security department is still discussing whether to characterize the car bombing case as a terrorist attack, the police have been dispatched to isolate the perimeter of the Mujue Building to ensure the safety of the people in the building.
After the explosion, the Mujue Group announced the suspension of work on all lines, except for the security guards who cooperated with the police to ensure the safety of the building's property, the rest of the employees evacuated the building, but the sad Jiang Yinglan was reluctant to leave.
Accompanied by Captain Gu, we retrieved the surveillance video in front of the building, which clearly recorded the explosion process of the car, from the video, it is indeed obvious that the fire began to explode and burn from the roof of the car, and then instantly engulfed the car, so that the people in the car had no chance to escape.
Thinking of the analogy made by my colleague in the Explosion Identification Section, I asked the surveillance manager to pause the footage of the seconds leading up to the explosion, frame by frame. Sure enough, a clue was found in the picture, and a vague black dot appeared above the car screen before the car exploded. I'm sure that the explosion of the car was caused by this black spot, but what is this black spot? No one can tell.
After watching the surveillance, I ran to the car explosion site, although the wreckage of the car had been removed by a tow truck, but what I wanted to see was not the wreckage of the car, but the terrain around the explosion. I found this area very empty, except for the Moujue Building, which is a high ground, and most of the surrounding houses are flat factories.
When I saw that black dot, the first thing I thought about was whether someone would throw something* or something from a distance. But this idea was immediately dismissed by me, because the car was still in the process of driving, and it was difficult to hit accurately by throwing. And in addition to the surveillance video of the Mujue Building, there is also road surveillance video in this area, and the implementation of the throwing method here to destroy the car will definitely be captured by the surveillance.
Based on the flatness of the terrain and the absence of too many tall buildings and trees, I thought of an effective method, could it be to drop bombs through drones? Now that technology has developed to the point that the drone can send back real-time images, and then transform it and throw one*, it should not be difficult.
This idea, while a bit too modern, is bound to be the object of my suspicion. Because of the previous suction cup climbing and extreme low-altitude skydiving, these equipment are not available to ordinary people. Then it has a high-tech aerial camera, which is also very likely.
Tell Lao Lu what I think, Lao Lu did not deny it, but Tang Zhenguo was very excited on the side, he looked at the sky and said: "In these cases, it seems that there is a character similar to 007!" ”
I thought to myself, if there really is a character like 007, then these cases will be difficult to handle. The difficulty lies not in 007 himself, but in the organization behind 007.
It didn't take long for Lao Lu to receive a phone call, and the results of the explosion identification came out, and sure enough, the explosion of the car was caused by the combustion of a small thermite*. But what is it*, the identification team did not say clearly, I guess they should have found the fragments of * in the wreckage, and also determined which country's weapon, but in order to avoid international problems, so the upper level is forbidden to disclose the origin of this weapon.
As the cause of the explosion was declassified, the public security department immediately issued a notice to characterize the bombing as a planned terrorist attack by the Kong terrorist organization.
But I'm puzzled by this, which gang terror group would attack an obscure driver? Could it be that they want to attack Mu Wei, the new chairman of the Muller Group? But Mu Wei had died the night before, so could it be that this so-called Kong terrorist organization blindly attacked Mu Wei's car without a careful investigation? Such negligence would occur in an organization with such advanced equipment? Apparently impossible.
I think that the object of this explosion is Mu Wei's bodyguard and driver, Luo Xiaofei.
In order to have a deeper understanding of Luo Xiaofei, I found Jiang Yinglan again.
Jiang Yinglan was very strange, the entire staff of the Mujue Building had been evacuated, and she was still sitting alone on the sofa in the hall. She looked sad rather than scared. This made me feel strange, and it was her strange and abnormal behavior that made me feel that there must be some ulterior secret in her heart.
I asked Lao Lu and Tang Zhenguo to wait for me on the side, and I wanted to go alone to meet this woman for a while.
I took two cans of coffee from the bar counter in the lounge area of the lobby, and then slowly walked over to Jiang Yinglan's side. But she didn't notice me, but stared intently at the door of the hall, with a look of faint fear in her eyes.
"Coffee?" My voice was soft.
"Ahh Jiang Yinglan's body trembled, and she reacted very much, like a frightened chicken.
"Mr. Officer, it's you." She wiped the corners of her eyes and said with an embarrassed smile.
I smiled, placed a can of coffee on the coffee table in front of her, and sat down across from her. She looked at the coffee and didn't reach for it.
Her makeup has been a little spent, her long hair that was black and smooth yesterday is a little messy, and it is still the same clothes as yesterday, but with a black coat.
I whispered: "I regret Luo Xiaofei's death, please mourn." ”
As soon as my words came out, Jiang Yinglan's eyes widened, and she looked at me directly, and after watching it for less than three seconds, tears couldn't stop flowing, and then she covered her face and lowered her head, and cried with a whin.
I didn't know how to coax a woman, let alone a crying woman, so I chose to wait.
She cried for about two minutes, then slowly raised her head, wiped her tears with her hands, and brushed back the bangs draped in front of her forehead a few times, her expression changed from the sadness she had just now to seriousness, and it was the kind of seriousness that was hostile to people.
"The question you asked me yesterday, I can answer you now. Yes, Xiaofei is my brother, how do you know? Jiang Yinglan looked at me and said.
I pulled open the coffee can, looked at the tab in my hand and said, "I can see it, because you are somewhat similar." "Of course, it is difficult to determine the connection between them just by looking alike with the naked eye, and I was able to determine the relationship through previous conversations with them and their reactions. But I don't bother to explain these to Jiang Yinglan, because now I have to ask her some questions, not to answer her questions.
Jiang Yinglan was of course dissatisfied with my answer, and I could see it from her more hostile expression.
I took a sip of coffee and felt a little too sweet, so I put the coffee can on the coffee table and said, "Has Luo Xiaofei offended anyone before?" ”
Jiang Yinglan sat up straight, crossed her hands in front of her chest, and said coldly, "I don't know." ”
I smiled, I couldn't understand what I had offended her about, and she would be so hostile to me. Is it just because I broke the relationship between her and Luo Xiaofei?
I asked a few more questions, and she either said she didn't know, or she was silent, I rarely lose my temper with women, but my temper is really coming up now. However, she was not a suspect, she was unwilling to cooperate with the investigation, and I couldn't force it, so I picked up the very sweet coffee and took a few sips to suppress the anger in my heart.
The hall was empty, and Lao Lu's mobile phone ringtone spread to every corner.
I was glaring at Jiang Yinglan in front of me, when I suddenly heard Lao Lu shouting "what". I hurriedly turned around, only to see that Lao Lu had already stood up and strode towards me.
I had a sense of foreboding, so I also stood up and asked Lao Lu, who was about to walk in front of me, "What's wrong?" ”
Lao Lu said with a gloomy face: "Mo Qinmian died, he was beaten to death." ”
I felt my eyes suddenly widen in my eye sockets, and there was a brief tingling in both ears, which is a typical sign of surprise.
In addition to being surprised, I glanced at Jiang Yinglan, and her face showed not only surprise, but fear, indescribable fear.
