Chapter 70: Deadly Fire
The windows were opened, and the people of the town could be heard talking.
Combined with Yu Fan's own scattered memories of last night's night shift, there are all kinds of signs that something is wrong in this town.
Yu Fan took out his mobile phone, dialed Chen Jieyang's phone, and broadcast it twice before answering the phone, the voice on the other end of the phone was very noisy, it seems that the reason why he didn't dial the first time was because it was too noisy to hear it. Chen Jieyang almost shouted and said: "Old Yu, what's the matter?" ”
Yu Fan: "Where are you?" What happened? ”
Chen Jiaoyang shouted on the other end of the phone: "You say be louder, I'm too noisy here." ”
Yu Fan also said loudly: "I said, what happened? Where are you? ”
Chen Xiangyang: "Oh, a fabric warehouse caught fire last night, Guo Na and I came here early in the morning to take a look, they are all a system, see if we can help." If you have breakfast, come over, we are here at the town hall, where we were yesterday. ”
Yu Fan hung up the phone, thinking that he didn't wake up himself with such a big movement last night, if the house that caught fire last night was this hotel, then the consequences would be unimaginable, the more Yu Fan thought about it, the more scared he felt.
After a quick breakfast, Yu Fan went to the town government, there were already a lot of people at the door of the town government, and there were even reporters, with signs around their necks, taking pictures of all kinds.
Yu Fan secretly felt that this matter might not be small. Guo Na picked up Fan at the door.
Walking straight to the office, everyone in the office was very busy, Yu Fan asked Guo Na: "What happened?" ”
Guo Na: "Well, it's hard to say, it feels like a serial arson case, let's find Captain Chen, let him introduce you." ”
Turned a corner and came to the conference room, as soon as I entered the door, I saw a group of people discussing something together, Chen Frameyang was there, and Officer Ziyan, who was in charge of docking yesterday, was also next to Chen Frameyang. Everyone saw Yu Fan coming in from the door, and everyone's eyes looked at Yu Fan in unison, which made Yu Fan a little uncomfortable, stopped a step, and then continued to walk inside.
Officer Ziyi, who was anxious, took the lead in speaking again: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Yu Fan, the special adviser of the XA City Public Security Bureau. ”
Everyone is surprised, psychochemist? What's that? I've never heard of it.
Zi Yan continued: "It just so happens that you came to us this time, and it just so happens that such a strange thing happened on our side, I have already communicated with Officer Chen, it just so happens that you are experts in dealing with this special incident, I hope you can use your professional knowledge to assist us in investigating this case." ”
Yu Fan looked at Chen Frameyang with a confused expression, Chen Frameyang nodded at Fan with a large and confident face, and made a very hidden evil smile.
Yu Fan complained in his heart: "You are dead Chen Jiaoyang, you must be bragging again, doing things everywhere, I don't have time to do my own company's business, if this continues, my company will definitely be made yellow by you, and I will lose my job." ”
But for the sake of face, Yu Fan was forced to agree: "Can you tell me, what happened?" After all, at critical moments, Yu Fan never dropped the chain.
Officer Zi Yan looked very happy, but in a blink of an eye, he said with a serious expression: "There was a fire in the center of the town last night, I think everyone knows about it, and now the whole town and even the entire LZ City are in a uproar, and it has also attracted a large number of media and reporters." “
Yu Fan asked: "Why is a fire so exciting?" Is there anything special about him? Is it because of the rumored serial arson? ”
Zi Yan's expression was a little surprised, and he said, "It seems that Officer Yu has already heard about this rumor?" “
Yu Fan corrected: "I'm not actually a police officer, just a special adviser named by them, yesterday we heard the hostess talk about this at the house you took us to, but it's probably a rumor." ”
Zi Yttrium's expression was very serious: "Actually, this is not a rumor. ”
The eyes of Yu Fan, Chen Xiangyang, and Guo Na instantly focused on Zi Yan, and everyone present also changed their sitting postures. Obviously, the next thing to talk about made everyone very uncomfortable.
Zi Yan picked up a thick file from the table and said slowly: "In the past 7 months, there have been 5 arson cases in a row, May is the first one, the fire is due north of the town, Shaojun Textile Factory, is the operation workshop, there are no casualties, I thought it was caused by illegal smoking by the operator, but we have carefully investigated, someone deliberately set fire in the workshop." The second was at the end of August, and the fire was at the Deming Food Factory in the southwest of the town, which was also set on fire. The third occurred in October and was set on fire to a gilded garment factory on the east side of town. The fourth case was in mid-December, and it was set on fire to the Yangzhong shoe factory in the southeast of the town. The fifth, which was last night, was a department store in the center of the town. As Zi Yan spoke, a police officer next to him laid out a map of the town on the table, circled the location and time of the fire.
Yu Fan frowned and looked carefully at the directions of the fire to see what the rules were, Zi Yan handed the file to Yu Fan again, Yu Fan took the file and didn't look at it first, but handed it to Guo Na and Chen Jieyang, and continued to study the map by himself.
Yu Fan asked: "What do you say to the outside world?" Please tell us more about the more specific situation. ”
Zi Yan said to everyone: "The previous four arson cases were not serious, but only caused some minor property damage. ”
Chen Jieyang said solemnly: "It's not so much about the panic of the people, but about the panic of investors, right?" In recent years, the development of Jinbu Town has been booming, and many foreign manufacturers have come here to invest and build factories, if they know that there is an arsonist lurking in this town, what do they think? Do you dare to invest? ”
The air froze for a few seconds, and the scene was slightly awkward. Chen Xiangyang has a quality that Yu Fan admires very much, that is, an innate righteousness, which is intimidating and uneven. This is also one of the reasons why Yu Fan is willing to help Chen Frameyang wade into troubled waters again and again, because Chen Frameyang is really doing something that Yu Fan wants to do, but he dare not do.
Zi Yan lowered his head a little helplessly: "Officer Chen, we also have some things to worry about. ”
Guo Na came out in time to turn the topic back: "If the loss is not big, why are so many media here today?" ”
Zi Yttrium: "The first few times there were indeed not many losses, there were no casualties, and they were all in the suburbs. But this time it was different, this time it was in a more prosperous area of the town center, and this time the fire was very large, and the entire 2-story shopping mall was almost wiped out. More serious is ......"
Zi Yan took a deep breath and subconsciously swallowed his saliva: "What's more serious is that this time I also carried a human life!" ”
