Chapter 2: The Plague of Innocence
Rumble!
A scarlet bolt of lightning pierced the night sky.
Lin Chu woke up from the shock and hurriedly dialed the phone number of the department manager.
Although he was kicked by the company, he still couldn't bear to watch someone die in vain.
After all, those who are still working overtime in the company at this time are poor grassroots workers.
"Hey!"
On the other end of the phone came an impatient angry voice from the manager.
In the background is the sound of mahjong rubbing.
"Manager, I'm ......"
"What else are you looking for from me? Whether to keep you or not is not up to me, this is a matter for the Ministry of Personnel. ”
"Manager, I'm not looking for you for this......"
"If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go, Lao Tzu is busy here."
"Manager, please notify the company immediately and let all the employees who are still in the company evacuate immediately. Time is urgent, it's going to kill someone when it's too late! ”
"You're not in the right head, are you? If you are sick, go to the hospital immediately! ”
Lin Chu saw that the other party didn't believe his words, so he was anxious.
He could only tell the truth: "I'm really not joking with you, at nine o'clock tonight, the company's headquarters building will catch fire!" ”
"Damn! You think you know the future! Really sick! ”
Doodoo ......
A busy signal came when the phone hung up.
"Hey!"
Lin Chu sighed and put down his phone.
Don't blame others for not believing it.
If the positions are reversed, he also does not believe it.
And they will think that it is just a prank after being fired from an intern and being dissatisfied with the company.
Lin Chu reopened the horror headlines.
Just about to check the details of this news, the phone automatically turned off when it ran out of battery.
He looked up at the storm and thunder.
Pray secretly in your heart:
Let's hope this news doesn't come true!
……
When I got back to my residence, it was already one o'clock in the morning.
The torrential rain caused power outages in half of the city, and the community rented by Lin Chu was no exception.
As far as the eye can see, there are black lights everywhere.
It's also a good thing if there is a power outage, at least you don't have to worry about being electrocuted when you wade through the water.
When he returned home in the dark, he changed into dry clothes, and Lin Chu, who was already exhausted, fell asleep.
I didn't know how long I had been asleep, and Lin Chu was woken up by a knock on the door.
Nation! Nation! Nation!
It was a knock on the door, not a knock, which was very rude.
"Who?"
"It's me, landlord."
A woman's voice came from outside the door.
Since the phone was out of battery, Lin Chu didn't know the specific time now.
So I looked up at the window, it was dark and not yet bright, and the rain was a little lighter.
Now in the middle of the night, what is the landlord looking for himself?
He wondered.
"Xiaolin, you open the door, I'll send you some candles."
The landlord shouted outside the house.
"Oh, wait a minute."
Lin Chu didn't think much about it, and opened the door when he got out of bed.
As soon as the door opened, several tall black figures in the darkness rushed up.
Before Lin Chu could react to what was going on, he had already been subdued.
"You ...... Who are you? What are you going to do? ”
"Don't move! The police! ”
The other person's flashlight lit up.
Only then did Lin Chu see clearly that there were a total of five people outside the house, and four of them were burly men, all dressed in police uniforms, and the landlady was trembling and hiding behind them.
"Comrade policeman, did you arrest the wrong person?" Lin Chu didn't understand why he provoked the police?
"Are you called Lin Chu, graduated from Shencheng University of Commerce, and interned in the operation department of Fu'an Group before?"
"Yes......" Hearing the other party say his personal information in such detail, Lin Chuxin suddenly cooled.
"That's right, we're looking for you, please cooperate with our work, come with us, we need to know something from you."
The police took Lin Chu downstairs and escorted him to the car.
At the same time, he entered the room and took him in an evidence bag along with his battery-free mobile phone.
Finally, the police car stopped at the city detention center.
Although the four policemen in charge of arresting him didn't say a word along the way, Lin Chu had already figured out that it must be the phone call to the manager before that caused him to get into trouble for no reason.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the detention center, the middle-aged criminal policeman in charge of interrogation asked: "At nine o'clock last night, the Fu'an Group where you interned caught fire, do you know?" ”
Lin Chu nodded silently.
"We learned from a management officer in Fu'an that you had called him before the fire," the detective said. ”
This seasoned criminal policeman observed Lin Chu's expression reaction as he spoke.
Obviously, Lin Chu was regarded as an arson suspect.
Who made Lin Chu accurately predict the time of the fire in advance, plus he was fired by the company and had a motive for committing the crime, it is impossible not to suspect it.
The criminal police asked: "How did you know twenty minutes in advance that the headquarters in Fu'an would catch fire at nine o'clock?" ”
"I saw it on a mobile app."
So far, Lin Chu can only tell the truth.
The criminal policeman frowned slightly, obviously not believing what Lin Chu said, but he still ordered the police officers around him to bring Lin Chu's mobile phone.
The phone has been charged a few times.
After the police officer unlocked it with Lin Chu's finger, he handed it over to the middle-aged criminal policeman.
The criminal policeman lowered his head and slid the interface and asked, "On which mobile phone software did you learn about the fire at nine o'clock in Fu'an in advance?" ”
Lin Chu replied: "The last page, the horror headlines." ”
The criminal policeman raised his mobile phone, and the interface was facing Lin Chu: "Horror headlines? How do you have this software on your phone? ”
Lin Chu stretched his neck forward, looked at the last icon and said: "It's the back, the LOGO is very similar to today, you look carefully at the text below, it's not today's headlines, it's horror headlines." ”
The criminal policeman turned back to his mobile phone and looked at it carefully for a long time, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
The young police officer glared angrily, "Boy, don't play tricks with us here, you don't have the horrible headlines you said on your phone, and you don't have today's headlines." ”
Lin Chuchu was stunned!
With such a conspicuous APP icon, why can't they see it?
Could it be ......
That weird APP, only the owner of the mobile phone, that is, himself, can see it?
The criminal policeman put down his mobile phone and said coldly: "I advise you to tell the truth, how did you know in advance that there would be a fire!" ”
"The fire is not mine! I don't believe you guys to check, when the fire broke out, I was not in the company, I was trapped on Mingzhu Road, you can go and see the monitoring! ”
Lin Chu knew that the other party was doubting himself, so he replied straight to the point, but avoided answering the questions raised by the other party, because he didn't know how to answer.
"I never said that you set the fire, the specific cause of the fire, the scene is investigating, as for where you were at the time, we will definitely find out."
The criminal policeman suddenly changed his words and asked sternly: "But what I want to know now is, how did you know in advance that the Fu'an headquarters building would catch fire at nine o'clock in time!" ”
"I, I ......"
Lin Chu was anxious, sweat kept dripping, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "I calculated it!" ”
"Calculate it? Then tell me how you calculated it, and it was so accurate that it was exactly the same! ”
"When I was a child, there was a lame Taoist priest in the village, and my friends chased him all the way to throw stones, and I was the only one who quietly stuffed a steamed bun for him, so he taught me a little Taoism."
The other party asked hard, Lin Chu had already said the facts, but they couldn't see the horror headline APP, so they had no way to testify.
So he simply talked nonsense about the beginning of the supernatural novel that he didn't know to deal with.
"Editor! You just keep compiling! ”
Sure enough, the middle-aged detective didn't believe it.
The young subordinate who was jurifying next to him also smiled contemptuously: "If you can really calculate, you can calculate it for me now, how many people died in this fire?" ”
Lin Chu replied calmly: "There are a total of twelve victims. ”
"Humph!" The young police officer showed an extremely disdainful expression, then turned his head and said to the middle-aged criminal policeman: "Team Wang, you see, he is really talking nonsense. In my opinion, this fire must have something to do with him! ”
Lin Chu was very unconvinced: "Did I say something wrong?" On what basis do you think I have something to do with the fire? ”
The criminal policeman said coldly: "It's not twelve, it's ten." ”
The young police officer said in a mocking tone: "The fire department counted the fire scene, and there were ten victims in total. You can't even calculate when and where there was a fire, why is it that now you can't even count the number of victims? ”
Lin Chu was surprised, how could this be?
The horror headline clearly said that twelve people died, but why are there only ten?
Could it be that there are times when the information posted above is wrong?
Just then, a policewoman pushed the door open and entered.
She held a document in her hand, and said as she walked towards the middle-aged criminal policeman: "Team Wang, the number of victims of the Fu'an fire has been corrected, not ten, but twelve. ”
"Why are there two more?"
The two men in charge of the interrogation were shocked and said almost in unison.
The middle-aged criminal policeman added: "Didn't the fire department say that there were only ten corpses at the scene?" Why are there two more? ”
The policewoman said: "It is true that there were only ten charred bodies at the scene, but it is true that there were twelve victims. Because when the forensic doctor was doing an autopsy, he found that one of the female corpses was pregnant, and it was twins. ”
When the middle-aged criminal police officer and the young police officer heard this, they were immediately dumbfounded.
The two of them looked at Lin Chu in shock at the same time.
It was really said by Lin Chu.
The dead were not ten, but twelve......
