I heard that I'm a tomb robber

Chapter 279
Mei Qian and Ning Chi ran home in a hurry, only to find that it was already too late.

Although the community property immediately organized fire fighting and called the fire department, when the fire truck arrived, the fire was already very large.

When Mei Qian arrived, it was at the late stage of the fire, the flames had been extinguished, but the billowing smoke still covered the entire villa.

Faced with this situation, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this villa will definitely be uninhabitable in a short time.

Although Mei Qian kept comforting herself in her heart and bought insurance, the loss was not too big.

But after rushing to the scene, his face could not remain calm at all.

Who can enjoy watching their electrical appliances, personal belongings, and many years of collections being burned to the ground?

Of course, what's even worse is that Qiao Mu, who should still be working in the police force, hastily rushed here in plain clothes.

He scanned the surrounding crowd, and easily found Mei Qian who was squatting opposite Ning Chi.

"It's not a normal fire, someone may have set it on fire."

This was the first sentence Qiao Mu said after seeing Mei Qian.

However, this sentence is consistent with Mei Qian's opinion.

The only difference is that the former relies on experience to make this judgment.The latter guessed that someone set the fire purely by intuition, and the person who started it was probably the group of tomb robbers who tested him.

"I just asked the neighbor who called the police. According to his description, there should be multiple fire points in the villa, and there was no explosion sound. This is not a gas leak, let alone a fire caused by an aging circuit. Of course, it depends on the details. Afterwards, professional investigation and evidence collection. Don't worry, our police will do our best to track down those tomb robbers." Having said this, Qiao Mu patted Mei Qian on the shoulder reassuringly.

Mei Qian nodded without saying a word, but the gloomy look on her face almost dripped water...

The house was burned, the only good thing for Mei Qian was that he finally found an excuse to rest for a few days.

Therefore, the novel that is being serialized on the Internet has been suspended indefinitely due to factors such as the burning of the computer and the loss of the 10,000+ word archived manuscript.

Fortunately, after explaining the situation, readers have expressed their understanding.

As for the reminders and insults, they were accidentally deleted by someone, and they no longer exist.

cough!
In this regard, even Ning Chi, who is a reader, couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

On the second day of the fire, he did not forget to control and comment even when he was in a state of desperation. This psychological quality is nothing to say.

Whether the neighbors like it or not, now, Mei Qian has moved back to Four Seasons Garden.

Fortunately, I didn't sell the house at the beginning, and I didn't rent it out because of the trouble, so I avoided the homeless situation.

On the surface, the fire did not have much impact on Mei Qian's life.

Actually?

A lot of things had to be bought again, no matter how much the insurance company could pay, some losses could only be borne by Mei Qian alone.

Such as some hard-to-value antiques, exquisite jewelry and artwork drawn by lottery.

Although some of them were stored in safes and were rescued afterwards, a large part was still burned.

Oh, and the fire also affected a bulletproof business car in the garage, and the repairs alone cost a lot of money.

Many of these things cannot be exposed.

Mei Qian made a lot of money, but she didn't turn a blind eye to the millions.

Distressed for sure.

What's more, he still doesn't know whether the insurance company will pay for the artificial arson...

Of course, Maomao is in charge of the gossip, what Mei Qian has to do now is to work with peace of mind.

With Mei Qian acting as the screenwriter for several film and television films with good reputation at the box office, his asking price for writing scripts has also risen.

But in the entertainment industry, there are only a few companies that can afford the price.

Anyone who dares to come into contact with Maomao is definitely not short of money, as long as the quality is high, everything is easy to talk about.

However, Mei Qian rejected all the orders that Maomaola had received in the past few days, and she would rather not make any quick money for the time being than accept those few movie scripts.

Ning Chi, who was always with him, was puzzled by this.

The reason is that Maomao recently handed over the invitation to Party A from the Police Headquarters Film and Television Drama Center. Yes, it was the one who asked for the scripts of "Infernal Affairs" and "Scorching Sun" last time.

This time, they bypassed the film and television company they cooperated with and directly approached Mei Qian.

Ordinarily, the sincerity of the family is very high, and the price given is high enough.

The only thing that makes Mei Qian feel uneasy is that this time the investor has added a special unit --- Police Headquarters Inspectorate.

You taste, you taste...

Mei Qian's current focus is actually not to concentrate on making money, but to avoid causing trouble and keep a low profile as much as possible.

According to Qiao Mu's speculation, the man-made arson in the villa complex looked like it was purely provoking Mei Qian on the surface.

But it does not rule out the possibility of a deeper meaning.

For example, the other party wanted to steal something and couldn't find it in the villa, or it was just to vent their anger, or it was to let Mei Qian take the initiative to reveal the storage location of the item, so he set the fire.

Both he and Mei Qian believed that the other party would not let it go, and would probably do something more.

Therefore, in the week since moving back to Four Seasons Garden, plainclothes guards around Mei Qian's house and the ruins of the villa have been standing guard 24 hours a day.

At the same time, a group of people went to Shaanxi Province to track down the group of tomb robbers.

They are doing their best to investigate the enemy, Mei Qian feels that it is better for him to be more honest recently.

Of course, facing her little brother's confusion, Mei Qian would definitely not tell the truth.

"I'm tired of writing mystery themes, especially police and gangster films. I really don't have any inspiration in a short time. If it's a horror film or a zombie film, I'm a little interested."
