Chapter 248 Accidental cigarette butts
The two people who were chatting were shocked, and at the same time closed their mouths and looked at the cardboard box.
The corner of the cardboard box was gently pressed down, revealing the face that had been burned by the fire: "My name is Worry, hello." ”
Ling Tian and Ma Xiao glanced at each other and nodded together: "Okay, okay." ”
Sorrow turned her head and looked around, and sighed faintly: "Still can't you put it down?" ”
"Ahem." Ling Tian coughed lightly: "That, worry, can you tell me what the hell is going on, why is Sun Tao **?" ”
"Alas, he is atoning for his sins, rest assured, I will follow him too. I was ready for it. ”
Ling Tian and the others were confused, and couldn't help but ask, and tears slowly flowed from one of the charred eyes of Sorrow'er.
"Do you remember the fire a few years ago, in the Anxin apartment?"
Ling Tian shook his head, but Ma Xiao stood up after being stunned: "Martyrdom arson? ”
Sorrow nodded, while Ling Tian pulled Ma Xiao to ask.
Although Ma Xiao wanted to ask about worry, he still patiently explained.
About ten years ago, a young couple eloped because of a backlash from their parents, but in this age of advanced information, there is simply no way to escape from the police.
Just as they were about to be brought back by their families, the two decided to die for love, they turned on the gas and hugged each other on the bed in their bedroom.
But what everyone didn't expect was that a cigarette butt thrown in front of their house ignited the gas escaping from the crack of the door, and after a huge explosion, a raging fire covered the six-story Anxin apartment.
More than 30 people were buried for their love.
Since then, rumors have spread that the apartment is haunted, and the residents have moved out with grief, and the place has become inaccessible, the only change being the two new words on the walls - dilapidated houses.
What Ma Xiao said was very simple, but Ling Tian still understood the general context, but he didn't understand what it had to do with Sun Tao.
"What does this have to do with you?"
Sorrow nodded: "At that time, we were living in an Anxin apartment, and that cigarette butt was thrown by Sun Tao, for so many years, although he has not said it, but I know that this matter has been buried in his psyche, and ...... a few days ago." ”
"What happened the other day, there is a ghost to take revenge?"
Ling Tian immediately thought of the greatest possibility, but Sorrow shook his head: "No, but he saw the neighbors of An's apartment back then, and they were having a bad time." ”
"So Sun Tao blamed himself, so he chose to commit suicide?" Ma Xiao's voice became louder: "Why did he go earlier?" Suicide, does suicide work? ”
He didn't dare to admit it back then, does he still want to continue to live with this burden now? I could feel his pain all the time. ”
Sorrow's voice was very soft, with a deep sadness, but it still made people hear her resoluteness.
Ma Xiao sat on the sofa and covered his head: "He's still a policeman, he's still a policeman, doesn't he know that there is a problem with this case?" ”
"What's the problem?"
"What's the problem?"
Ling Tian and You'er asked at the same time, and Ma Xiao picked up his mood for a while and raised his head: "At that time, everyone thought it was just an accident, but not long ago, an old policeman who was in charge of handling the case at that time retired, and he told me about the case before he retired, and he always suspected that someone had deliberately set the fire. ”
Ling Tian didn't have much reaction, but Yu'er softened all of a sudden, fell into the cardboard box, and the falling body accidentally pressed against the child, and suddenly the room was filled with the cry of a baby.
"Why, why is it said now."
Sorrowful's voice was broken, and Ma Xiao opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.
Ling Tian lightly touched Ma Xiao twice: "What is the situation?" ”
Ma Xiao sighed and didn't answer: "Worry, don't be sad, as long as Sun Tao unties the knot, you can still be together, after all, you ......." ”
None of them are people, Ling Tian added in his heart, but he comforted Ma Xiao for a day, death is not the end, Sorrow gradually calmed down, looking at Ma Xiao.
"I beg you, tell me the truth."
Ma Xiao nodded, Ling Tian quickly pricked up his ears, and a past event that had been hidden for ten years slowly emerged.
About 10 years ago, a fire broke out in the Anxin apartment, which ruthlessly claimed the lives of more than 30 people.
It was a young couple who committed suicide by using gas, causing the room to have an extremely high gas level, which caused it to be ignited by an unintentionally discarded cigarette butt, causing an explosion.
In the explosion, because the staircase was blown up, so that the residents of the upper floors could not escape, and they were engulfed in flames.
One coincidence after another makes tragedy happen, but will things be as simple as that?
The night before the case was closed, Wang Hanfeng went to Anxin's apartment alone, and the policeman's instincts told him that things might not be as simple as he thought.
turned on the law enforcement recorder and asked his colleague Xiao Mingyuan to monitor and avoid omissions, Wang Hanfeng walked straight into the peace of mind apartment.
The house that had been burned to pitch black had no light, and in the moonlight, it blended into the night.
The street lamps not far away could not spread light to the dark place due to the lack of pruned trees, and the surrounding pedestrians unconsciously accelerated their pace to detour.
It seems that one more second of stay will trigger a panic in their hearts.
"Gollum" swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Wang Hanfeng and Xiao Mingyuan tested the signal, and walked from light to darkness.
The temperature was dropping, and the breeze outside, shaking the leaves, stopped as he stepped into the black and white boundaries of the ground. Even the roar of the car died down in an instant.
There was a deathly silence all around.
"It's very infiltrating." Wang Hanfeng and Xiao Mingyuan laughed.
The sound came out and into the ears, but it seemed to be far away.
Stepping on the rancid fallen leaves, he soon came to the front of the building, and under the light overhead, the moss on the steps was clearly visible, and Wang Hanfeng finally entered the state.
"Mingyuan, pay attention to the records and backups, and notify me in time if you find anything."
"Okay, Team Wang."
One, two, three steps, to the aisle, a door that opened or closed appeared in front of him, and behind the door was a room with a black hole.
The walls here are still exposed, the slender wires are tangled and irregularly nailed to the wall, and the fire is upward, and even if someone dies on the first floor, it must be the least place.
went directly to the room where the young couple were martyred, and the door was pushed open with a "squeak", revealing the tattered furniture and debris all over the floor.
At the same time, Xiao Mingyuan was drinking coffee and looking at the screen, when Wang Hanfeng went, he proposed to be together, but Wang Hanfeng refused, this case has basically been characterized, and the suspicion is only because of intuition, there is no way to report and approve it.
