Chapter 516 Human Tragedy
There was a human life on the construction site a month ago, but it was not murder, but suicide.

The deceased left a suicide note and climbed to the roof of the building in the middle of the night and jumped from the top.

The person in charge of the construction site explained to Sun Jun with a bitter look on his face.

"We suppressed this matter at the time. After all, it is not a good thing for people to die on the construction site. We were afraid that it would affect the sale of the house in the future."

"And the other party committed suicide, so it actually has nothing to do with us."

Sun Jun has seen the death certificate at that time, and the local criminal police team came to see the scene and confirmed that it was suicide. There should be no problem with this.

Moreover, there were witnesses at the time who saw Lao Zhangtou climb up the building alone and then jump down.

"I heard that Lao Zhangtou committed suicide because your construction site owed him wages?"

"This matter has nothing to do with our construction site. There are general contractors and subcontractors for construction on the construction site. The specific work is done by workers recruited by the contractor below."

"Our construction site only opened last year, but many workers on this construction site have also worked at other construction sites."

"Lao Zhangtou was deceived by a small contractor when he was working on another construction site of our company."

"The company pays all the workers' wages to subcontractors, and the subcontractors pay the wages to various foremans, who then pay the wages to the workers."

"A few years ago, the little contractor Lao Zhangtou followed lost a lot of money gambling, so he took away all the wages of the dozen or so workers he had at that time."

"But in fact, the company has already paid wages. In this case, we can't give any more money. Later, the company's lawyers were asked to file a lawsuit for them, but the little boss was arrested for gambling and is still there. He's squatting in the detention center."

"Originally, Lao Zhangtou never made a fuss. Anyway, the lawsuit has been decided, so we just have to wait for the execution later."

"However, in the first half of the year, his son was diagnosed with leukemia, which was still in the advanced stage. He was in urgent need of money to save his life. There was no other way, so Lao Zhangtou started to make trouble."

"Later I heard that he had borrowed a lot of money, and when he knew he couldn't pay it back, he jumped off the building."

"By the way, this is all written in his suicide note..."

The person in charge of the construction site said it was easy, but Sun Jun didn't listen easily.

Unless it happens to you, no one can experience the pain.

After working hard for a year, I didn't get even a penny at the end, and I didn't have the money to treat my son when he got sick.

What's the point of being alive?
It is better to die.

And the old Zhangtou they talk about is actually not very old, not even 50 years old.

Because the other person used to work in the countryside and looks older.

Later, I also did hard labor in the city, and I looked like an old man in his 70s or [-]s.

So everyone called him Lao Zhangtou.

In fact, most of the current construction sites are migrant workers of his age, and young people are rare.

Middle-aged men in their 40s are at a time when they are old and young.

Coming out of the countryside, they have no skills and can only work as coolies. Lao Zhangtou is a typical example.

People of this age have parents in their 70s and [-]s to support, and a son in his twenties to pay for his wife.

Nowadays, the wedding gift can easily reach more than 20 yuan, and some even cost 30 yuan, including a house and a car.

Sun Jun sighed.

He also has several relatives in the countryside. Last year, the family's son got married and the bride price alone was 25 yuan.

This doesn't cost money, it simply costs lives.

"Has anything special happened on the construction site recently?"

"There is nothing else. Lao Zhangtou's jumping off the building is the biggest thing."

Huaguang Street is good for Huaiyang cuisine.Zhang Hui did not identify himself as a police officer for investigation this time, but pretended to be a customer buying pufferfish.

"Waiter, I want the most expensive pufferfish."

The waiter's eyes lit up and his attitude was enthusiastic: "Sir, it seems that he is a regular customer of ours. How many do you want?"

"Are there any fresh ones alive? I want to go home and raise them."

"Nursing?"

The waiter smiled: "No, that's not the case. Those things are dead here. We send them chilled from the place of production."

"Oh? That's it. Take me to have a look and choose one."

"Sir, I'm sorry, the most expensive kind of pufferfish is poisonous, so we won't let guests come into contact with it directly. We have professional chefs who will prepare it directly for you."

"Then how do I know that this is what I want?"

"Sir, our hotel is a time-honored restaurant. You will know if it is the right one once you taste it..."

The waiter suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with this customer.

Zhang Hui also saw the change in the other party's expression, and directly took out his ID: "I am a policeman, ask your boss to come out."

waiter:"……"

I'm going to introduce you to delicious food, are you trying to trick me?
Three minutes later, a bald, slightly fat middle-aged man appeared in front of Zhang Hui with a silly smile and a bowed head.

"Comrade police, welcome, my name is Liang Yuancheng, I am the boss here, would you like to have a cigarette?"

Zhang Hui naturally would not accept the other party's cigarette: "Someone reported you for selling wild puffer fish?"

The boss' face stiffened.

Some things are just like this. People don't take action and officials don't investigate, and they can get over it by fooling around. But once someone reports this kind of thing, it's really not a trivial matter.

"The police comrades must have misunderstood. We don't have that kind of thing here. They are highly poisonous. What we sell here are artificially bred puffer fish."

"Boss Yang, we already have conclusive evidence that you are selling wild puffer fish here."

"Not only that, but there are also people who use your wild puffer fish to... kill people."

kill?
Liang Yuancheng almost fainted when he heard this.

The most important reason why wild puffer fish is not allowed to be bought and sold is because it is poisonous. Once eaten by mistake, it is almost impossible to save and will die immediately.

Processing wild puffer fish for food is a very experienced job.

Not just any chef can master it, this thing has a heritage.

How to cut, where to cut, which parts can be eaten and which parts cannot be eaten are all very particular.

Ordinary restaurants cannot sell wild puffer fish because they do not have such chefs.

Only some particularly strong hotels can register locally and pass inspection before they can be sold.

But Liang Yuancheng calmed down soon.

Death is indeed a big deal, but the wild puffer fish sold in their store cannot poison anyone.

"Comrade police, there must be some misunderstanding here."

"We do have wild puffer fish for sale in our store, but our wild puffer fish are all shipped fresh from the south. When they are shipped from there, professional chefs have processed these puffer fish, and the toxins are already there when they are shipped. Gone."

"And all the puffer fish I have is cooked here. I eat it directly after it is cooked and sell it if it is not raw."

"So, it's impossible for my puffer fish to poison people."
