Chapter Forty-Six: The Mountains and Rain Fill the City
The phone call he received at Liu Nannan's wedding was a warning - Ma San's subordinates called him, saying that someone was going to burn down the Luoxue bar in Hokkaido.
When Ma San was taking care of the bar, Wishing was very generous to him and his subordinates, and when Ma San's subordinates heard the news, they called Wish.
Even if you make a wish to get the news in advance, you can't prevent it, after all, the other party is in the dark, and he is in the light.
In the middle of the night, the snow in Hokkaido was shining, and when the field was about to end, someone suddenly set fire to the second floor, burning two private rooms in a row, and some people threw burning flammable materials into the lobby on the first floor.
It was a weekend, and the bar was crowded, and the men and women who were swinging wildly were caught off guard and began to think it was a bar fireworks, as fireworks were often released from the glass pillars in the middle of the hall. When he saw the flash of fire, he raised his hands and screamed passionately. The DJ didn't figure out the situation either, shouting for people to enjoy the feast of the fire.
Soon, several people were set on fire, their buttocks spitting green smoke, scurrying around like monkeys, screaming miserably from their mouths, and struggling to pounce on the crowd.
Smoke had risen from the second floor, there were too many guests on the first floor, everyone crowded each other, and some strong guests performed "Ling Bo Wei Step" to jump on top of the others, stepping on their heads and rushing to the door.
Human nature is like this, when disaster strikes, they will be desperate to run first, even if they step on other people's faces.
The arson itself did not cause much harm to people, except for a few people who had been exposed to flammable fires, and their buttocks were roasted and smoky.
The fire was extinguished in time, but the chaotic crowd of people who ran for their lives tragedy occurred, and two young men fell to the ground and were trampled to serious injuries.
After the bar was set on fire, the fire department immediately issued a closure notice and the bar closed again.
The anxious wish was furious, and shouted at the police officer: "You are staring at me, have you sent someone to find the arsonist!" ”
A police officer said with a blank face: "Listen, he didn't pay attention to such a big thing, and he didn't care about it." ”
Wishing picked up a high chair and smashed it on the table, scolding in his mouth: "A bunch of garbage! ”
The officer said, "What do you say! ”
Wishing with blood-red eyes, stepping on the debris and garbage on the ground, pointing around, "I said there is garbage everywhere!" ”
Make a wish to comfort and compensate the injured guests as soon as possible.
The bar did not suffer much damage, and it could be opened at any time, just waiting for the permission of the fire and police, he coordinated many times, but there was no progress at all.
The arson incident, everyone suspects that it is manipulated by the Ocean Group, and the last time the Dongzheng Fire was fired, Zhao Junqing also confirmed that the Ocean Group was behind it, and for personal gain, it took people's lives. The Ocean Group has a penchant for arson, and the more they indulge, the more skilled they become, and I fear that they will one day burn down the entire city.
Zixuan and I went separately to find someone to ask about the situation.
Zixuan also asked his father to use resources, Director Zhou heard Zixuan mention many times that he made a wish to be a wealthy family, and Xu's Group was often on the news, so he agreed to ask a friend for help, but many friends told him that shutting down the snow in Hokkaido was the meaning of the above, and the specific above referred to which one and which aspect of the above refused to disclose.
Through Meng Xing, I learned that the ward fire chief in charge of snow in Hokkaido was surnamed Bai, so I reported to my home to find him.
Captain Bai is a middle-aged man, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, meticulous in oil, and sven, but with a mockery in his mouth, he said: "You are that Xia reporter, I heard that you like fire, last time Dongzheng Fire slipped into the fire, it's not a good habit to be keen on playing with fire!"
He held his glasses and said, "More than 500 degrees - the center of the fire, do you know any concept?" Anyone can be cremated inside! ”
"It's just...... It's just a job need, I don't play with fire......"
Before I could finish speaking, he interrupted to himself: "Do you know about lung cancer?"
I coughed and said, "Oh, yes. ”
He raised his voice: "The smoke at the scene of the fire!" Lung cancer is more lung cancer than lung cancer, take a puff in, just one sip, your lungs ...... Boom! It exploded!"
The sound of "bang", saliva sprayed on my head, and I had to agree: "Mmmm, understand......"
Captain Bai wiped his glasses and said: "I know the purpose of your visit, but you are a reporter, in front of the media, we have to strictly enforce the law, act impartially, and dare not do favoritism." ”
After saying that, he put on his glasses and looked down at the papers, ignoring me.
I had to withdraw in anger, and I was sprayed with saliva, and I didn't even have a chance to spray back.
After knowing this, I said to me: "Don't go to him again, I heard that this person has always been the fire safety consultant of the Ocean Group, and he has a close relationship with Zhang Shuai." ”
Later, I remembered Li Shang's ex-girlfriend CC, but CC disappeared after breaking up with Li Shang, and I couldn't contact him, leaving only a sigh in my heart.
I don't want to look for my aunt anymore, she is now the head of the police department, everyone is staring at her, and the words of "abuse of power" will leave the best excuse for revenge for the Ocean Group, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the whirlpool of public opinion.
remembered that Director Zhou said that someone above was concerned about this matter, so he wanted to find a relationship in a high place. Deputy Director Zhang, who is in charge of fire protection at the Municipal Public Security Bureau, is a newly appointed deputy director of the Nancheng branch where Ran Jing is located, and he has eaten at his aunt's house several times.
Decided to ask him for help.
Call Meng Xing first and ask her to see if Zhang Ju is in the office, Meng Xing sneaked over to take a look, and said yes, I went straight to Director Zhang's office.
Director Zhang was very enthusiastic when he saw me, and after listening to the situation briefly, he said in a deep voice: "In this way, I can only draw a line for you and promote a dinner, you should ask about the situation." ”
I hurriedly said, "Okay, thank you." ”
He smiled and said, "There's no guarantee that things will be done." ”
He wished not to attend the dinner, so he asked a vice president of the bar to attend.
Zixuan and I went to a teahouse restaurant with a director of the fire department and deputy director Sun of the city's central district public security bureau. I have known Director Sun before, so we didn't have much politeness when we met.
During the meal, we first talked about the familiar leadership relationship between the municipal government and the surroundings, which is the case on this occasion, don't talk about things at the beginning, everyone talks about some meat jokes, talks about the common officialdom friends around us, and closes the distance.
After drinking a few bottles of white wine, I opened a few more bottles of red wine. Everyone chatted quite well, and the director burped and put his arm around my shoulder and said, "As long as my brother can help, you can just speak." ”
Hearing him say this, Zixuan and I were very happy, and we got up to respect him, and he also saluted him one by one.
He said to the vice president of the Wish: "I have heard about you. It was not easy for them in the White Brigade, and everyone took care of each other and passed. ”
He looked at Deputy Director Sun half-jokingly and half-seriously and said: "There are fewer crows in the world that are white and many black, and the Public Security Bureau knows better, is it the Sun Bureau?" ”
Director Sun is a smiling tiger who has drunk too much, so he continued his words: "That's right, we all have our own difficulties. The deputy director Yang who committed suicide by fire in Dongzheng borrowed 100,000 yuan from me for the upper position back then, and now he has lost his ......."
After speaking, he casually glanced at me, as if he realized something, and suddenly closed his mouth. I pondered for a long time, thinking that he might be thinking about my relationship with my aunt.
After the meal, Director Sun left first.
Before leaving, he pulled me aside and said, "Xiao Xia, who is still eating now, eating is just a bridge, as for falling off the bridge next, or walking on the bridge, there is no good snacks, how can everyone cross the bridge when they are hungry?" Remember, between people, there are contradictions, and there are two words to turn their faces into enemies: love and benefit, and the formation of friendship and shortening the distance is also because of these two words, you weigh it! ”
After listening to this, I thanked him for sending him to the car.
The rest of us took a taxi to the nightclub of Junnan Hotel in Nancheng District. Mainly considering that she is familiar with Zhao Junqing, Ran Jing works as a criminal policeman in Nancheng District, and she can take care of her in case of something.
In the private room of the nightclub, I drank a table of small glasses of foreign wine, and it ended in the middle of the night. I was very reluctant but reluctantly confessed to the vice president who wished to entertain the director, I and Zixuan went back first, and the vice president smiled secretly, saying rest assured, to ensure the completion of the task.
He Zixuan came out of the nightclub drunk, he was already drunk, he used the grass on the side of the road as a bed at home, he threw himself up with joy, and wanted to roll around to stretch his waist, I dragged him into a taxi.
In the car, Zixuan's tongue curled, and he leaned back on the back of the seat vaguely and said, "Xia, I'...... In my heart, it's good for you to be such a good one... Pal! If we want to do it, we will be brothers for life! ”
I turned my head to laugh at him, but found that he had tears in the corners of his eyes and was already asleep.
After sending off Zixuan, I took a taxi along Riverside Parkway home.
Halfway through, my dizziness was terrible, my stomach turned over, I stared at the grass outside the window and said, "Master, stop quickly, I want to vomit!" ”
When the driver heard this, he immediately braked, and I threw him a hundred dollars and got out of the car and stumbled to the grass, squatting on the ground and vomiting.
was spitting violently, Meng woke up and was electrified.
That night, she knew that I was going to socialize, and thought that I must have to drink, so she never slept. I covered my heart and answered the phone while spitting, Meng Xing heard that I was vomiting, a little distressed, and asked me where I was and wanted to come and pick it up.
After sobering up a bit, look up at the signs and tell her at the side entrance of Riverfront Park. Meng Xing said, "I'll be there soon!"
After spitting up, I felt better, sat on a roadside bench and waited for Meng to wake up, it was late at night, there was no one around, and occasionally there were migrant workers lying by the river to enjoy the shade whispering.
On the embankment, a man and a woman came from a distance, stopping on the gravel road to hug and talk. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, but the more I looked at the girl, the more she looked like Chu Qing.
The distance between the two is about ten meters away, and along the street light, I stared at the girl carefully, and I was sure that it was Chu Qing, and she was still wearing a diamond-encrusted earring from Li Shang's wedding on her ear, shining in the light.
The man turned his back to me, occasionally turned his head to look around, he looked like he was in his fifties, he was already fat, his belly bulged and stuck to Chu Qing's body, and he looked like Chu Qing was holding a big ripe watermelon from the side, and he looked like he was wearing this should be a man with a successful career. The two behaved like a pair of lovers in love, and the man kissed Chu Qing's face from time to time, and his hand was still on her back.
Chu Qing reacted eagerly, took the initiative to kiss his cheek, and pouted and tilted his head and scratched his nose with his fingers, which made me shiver when I peeked at it.
They didn't stop long, they spent a few minutes on the riverside bank of the park, and then left one after the other.
Meng Xing took me to the very sea apartment, and I lay on the sofa dizzily. She made a pot of lemon honey tea and sat next to me pressing my temple.
I had a terrible headache, but I still couldn't help but think about Chu Qing and that man, and I didn't understand the identity of that man after guessing for a long time.
The only conclusion is that Chu Qing is very likely to betray Zixuan - the age difference between her and that man is huge, and it is unlikely that it is because of love.
Outside, it was cloudy and dark, and lightning and thunder roared on the mountains in the suburbs.
A heavy rain is about to cover the city.
