Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 414 Fire
College student Gao Yue is already on vacation, and elementary school student Fan Licheng is naturally on vacation already.

But this year Fan Licheng did not go to his father's place in Yangcheng to celebrate the New Year.

In order to welcome and take care of Xiao Xuxu, Gao Mingcheng has not planned to travel far since he sold a batch of medicinal materials to Yangcheng in late October.

Fan Licheng knew that Gao Mingcheng was not traveling far and would not send him to Yangcheng, so he didn't want to go. In addition, he happened to have a cold and felt uncomfortable at that time, so he simply said no to Fan Chengyao.

What can Fan Chengyao do?I can only agree.

Then I took advantage of the opportunity to purchase goods in the store and bought Fan Licheng a lot of New Year items, including clothes, pants, books, new schoolbags, various foods and toys, etc.

Gao Mingcheng learned this when he had a phone call with Fan Licheng.

Since the clothing store installed a telephone, it has become much more convenient to communicate with people outside.

Fan Licheng naturally has a telephone at home, so the two of them can communicate in real time through phone calls.

However, the phone is a landline. When you call, the person you are looking for may not be near the phone, so BB phones have become active in the market.

In 83, the first paging station in China was opened in Shanghai. Since then, BB machines have entered the domestic market.

Nowadays, BB machines can be used in many places. If you want to find someone, you can send a message to that person's BB machine in advance. After the person sees it, he can find a public phone booth and call back.

Most BB machines can only receive in one direction, so this communication system requires a large number of public phones to support it.Although there are many BB machines on the market today, the most popular time for BB machines was in the 90s.

Gao Mingcheng also has a BB camera. Fan Chengyao gave it to him when he went back to Yangcheng last time. After he brought it back, everyone in his family passed it around in surprise.

I just stared for a long time, but I didn't hear the beeping sound from the BB machine. In other words, no one was looking for Gao Mingcheng.

This is normal. Gao Mingcheng has not made many friends in his life, so naturally few people will come to him.And the person looking for him must also have a BB camera.

So everyone only lost interest in the BB machine after being curious for two days.

Gao Mingcheng didn't take BB phones seriously either. Having seen smart phones, he naturally wouldn't take BB phones seriously. The technological content was too weak.

It's a pity that he doesn't understand these technologies, otherwise he could have reaped the dividends of the times.

Forget it, Gao Mingcheng thought about it for a while, and finally looked down at his son in his arms. He should just stay with his family honestly in this life. He can't make enough money, so just have enough.

Just as Gao Mingcheng showed a fatherly smile, he suddenly smelled a stench, oh, the shit shovel officer is online!

During the recent period, Gao Mingcheng stayed at home all day to take care of the baby. Because he held the baby diligently, Hu Yinchen was a little worried. Was he about to fire her?
But Hu Yinchen's worries were in vain. When he originally hired her, he said he would hire her for a month or two, but because of her hard work and good character, Gao Mingcheng has decided to hire her for a while longer, at least for a year. After one year, the child will be much easier to take care of.

That night, not long after Gao Mingcheng fell asleep, he suddenly woke up.

The room is not dark, because there is a night light in the corner, which is convenient for many Americans to get up in the middle of the night to feed their children.

But apart from the faint light emitted by the night light, there was also a flash of firelight beside the window.

Gao Mingcheng opened the quilt and quickly put on his clothes.

Since having a child, Dumei wakes up easily. She can wake up immediately when the child cries. Now Gao Mingcheng's action of getting up also woke her up.

She was bleary-eyed, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to see her child, but the child was still sleeping well.

"What's wrong?" she asked vaguely.

"There might be a fire outside, I'll go take a look." Gao Mingcheng said quickly.

Gao Mingcheng had just walked away, and many beautiful women were no longer sleepy. She looked at the window and saw a fire rising into the sky in the distance, but this distance should be at least a few hundred meters away from here.

It is said that water and fire are merciless, but due to the special terrain of the county, there has never been a flood for hundreds of years, but fires have occurred several times.

The most profound impression on Dumei was when her father told her that the Kuomintang had burned down the entire village of Gaojiacun.

There were several wildfires in the future, but fortunately they were put out in time.

Gao Mingcheng quickly went downstairs, went out and headed towards the place where the fire light came out.

When he passed by, he found that the fire was getting bigger and bigger. Some people living around had woken up and were hurriedly putting out the fire, but more people were in panic and didn't know what to do.

"My daughter Guixiang is still in the house!" Suddenly, a middle-aged man screamed miserably.

He was covered in stains, his face was stained, and his wrists had binding marks, as if he had been beaten. He struggled to go in to find his daughter, but the people around him stopped him from entering.

"Army, how do you get in with such a big fire?"

"Get out of the way, that's my daughter! My daughter!" The middle-aged man who called Da Jun was still struggling to get in. Finally, he finally broke away from the people who blocked him and prepared to rush into the house filled with flames.

This house is a wooden structure, so once it catches fire, it burns very quickly. At this moment, the fire is so powerful that people standing a few meters away can feel the hot breath coming towards their faces, as if their skin is being burned. .

Gao Mingcheng grabbed the middle-aged man in time and said quickly: "There is no one in the house."

He had good eyesight, and even though the room was filled with fire, he saw that there was no one inside.

The house is not big, and people standing outside can see what's going on inside through the doors and windows.It's just that the houses here are one after another, and they are all in disrepair, so when the fire started, the nearby houses began to burn.

"Have you called the police? When will the firefighters come?" Gao Mingcheng asked.

"The police have been called. We have to wait for them to come." someone said.

The army grabbed Gao Mingcheng's hand and asked, "There is really no one in the room? How did you know?"

"I saw it." Gao Mingcheng glanced at the man and said meaningfully: "How did this house catch fire? Think about it yourself!"

As soon as these words came out, the man immediately covered his face and started crying.

"I'm not a human! I'm not a human!" He cried and slapped himself in the face. Obviously, there must be a story for his house to catch fire.

Gao Mingcheng was not one to predict the future, but he saw some clues from this middle-aged man, so he said this.

Now that we are here, we must help put out the fire.Otherwise, if the fire continues to spread, the nearby houses will not be saved.

"Whose house is that tile-roofed house? It's about to be demolished!" Gao Mingcheng looked at the direction in which the fire was spreading and decided to artificially build a fireproof belt.

He immediately led people to demolish the tile-roofed house.

The owner of the tile-roofed house refused and shouted, "Why are you tearing down my house?"

"If you don't demolish it, the fire will burn it all out! This tile-roofed house is close to the fire source. After demolishing it, your other houses will not catch fire." Gao Mingcheng explained hurriedly. He was very strong. Most of the houses here were in disrepair. He kicked them down and the walls shook a few times.

At this time, other people also brought big hammers. With everyone's joint efforts, the wall of the tile-roofed house collapsed completely.

After demolishing this tile-roofed house, Gao Mingcheng demolished several more houses according to the intensity of the fire, and took out fireproof belts in time.

The rest of the people also poured water towards the source of the fire, but the fire was too strong and could not be put out in a short while.

Fortunately, the fire brigade came at this time.

It’s just that the fire brigade in the 80s had crude equipment, and many of the equipment were still very heavy. However, because of the fire breaks, the fire was under control and would not spread anymore. It only needed to be put out with a lot of water.

Under the night, the flames shot into the sky, people gathered nearby, and water jets rushed towards the burning house.

Gao Mingcheng looked at this scene and felt relieved when he saw that the fire was extinguished little by little.

"Ming Cheng? Why are you here?" Suddenly, a person appeared next to him. It was Gao Yue. He was obviously aware of the situation here, so he came to check.

When Gao Mingcheng saw him, he immediately pointed to the middle-aged man crying in the corner and said: "This should be a man-made arson case. Go and interrogate him. The original source of the fire was his house. He should know who set the fire." .”

Gao Yue's eyes lit up when he heard this.

The fire brigade is mainly responsible for extinguishing fires and has no law enforcement power.Therefore, the cause and punishment of fires are under the jurisdiction of the police station.

If this was a man-made arson case, it would be a great achievement to be able to arrest the criminal as soon as possible.

So Gao Yue immediately walked towards the middle-aged man.

It's just that he seems to have been through a lot, and his mood is extremely unstable, making it difficult to ask questions.

"Dad! Dad!" A seven or eight-year-old girl suddenly ran over and shouted for her father.

When the middle-aged man heard this, a hint of joy appeared on his face, and he quickly ran over and hugged the girl.

"Guixiang! Just hope you're okay!"

"Dad, I didn't find you when I woke up, so I went out to look for you," the little girl said.

"Where are you going to find me?"

"Go to my aunt's house."

After the middle-aged man made sure that the child was fine, he was willing to answer Gao Yue's questions truthfully.

Gao Yue asked as a police officer, and Gao Mingcheng was naturally listening.

After listening to it, I just felt thunder rolling from the sky.

It turned out that this middle-aged man lost his wife two years ago, and then got involved with a married woman. Gao Mingcheng, the husband of that woman, actually knew him, and he was a driver at Xiao Jinfeng Transportation Company.

Because he traveled long distances, the driver was often away from home, so the couple got together and often fooled around.

Tonight, the middle-aged man went to the woman's home while his daughter was asleep. However, he was caught by the woman's husband, tied up and beaten.

When he staggered back, he found that the house was on fire.

"My house must have been burned down by Chen Dayan!" the middle-aged man swore, hoping that the police could catch Chen Dayan.

However, Gao Yue looked constipated. Help, this case is a bit complicated!
