You're Guilty: Conspiracy Scene 2 crime escalation

Chapter 43

In July, the sun is like a flaming fireball, baking the earth.Walking on the road, the soles of the shoes were softened, as if they were about to melt. The heat spread upwards along the soles of the feet, and the steam was steaming from the top of the head. Everyone was disturbed, and the anxious emotions accumulated and expanded in the bottom of their hearts, like firecrackers that were about to explode.

There are ten residential buildings and more than 1000 households in the Jiangning community. At three o'clock in the afternoon, there are only a few idle people in the yard.Suddenly, Aunt Yao from the neighborhood committee of the community saw thick smoke billowing from the roof of a building through the window, and cried out in shock: "It's on fire."

In addition to Aunt Yao, there were two old ladies, Zhang Wuniang and Qiu Ximei, in the neighborhood committee. They heard the sound and looked out through the window, and they all shouted: "It's building No. [-], it's on fire, call the fire engine."

Some of the three old ladies made a phone call, some ran outside and shouted "firefighter", and some terrified residents came out of Building No. [-] one after another. It was wet, and some legs were weak, and they sat down on the ground and couldn't stand up.After a while, passers-by also gathered around, and the audience gathered more and more, pointing at the burning house.

Aunt Yao stomped her feet and said, "It's No. [-], [-]th Floor, Unit [-], Huang Manhua's house. I saw her go out just now. Now it's over. I don't know if there is anyone else in the house."

Qiu Ximei said: "Why not, her husband and children seem to be at home."

Just as they were talking, more than a dozen fire trucks drove into the Jiangning community one after another with their deafening sirens. Fire officers and soldiers in full uniform jumped out of the cars quietly and quickly, set up ladders, went upstairs, and installed water hoses in an orderly manner.

The firefighting effort did not last long.The fire was not big at first, and it was mainly concentrated in No. [-] on the seventh floor of the third unit, and slightly spread to the neighbors and upstairs residents, causing no real damage.It's just that the black smoke was very thick and filled the corridor, causing great panic among the residents in the building.Fortunately, it was time for work and school, and there were not many people in the residents' homes, so they were able to escape in time.

However, the fire scene was severely damaged.The fire was in a one-bedroom, one-living room unit. The furniture in the room was almost completely burnt out, the walls around were pitch black, the floor was charcoal, and the heat was still hitting people half an hour after the fire was extinguished.The kitchen floor was littered with shards of broken china and glass, black with smoke.The worst thing was that there were two dead bodies lying in the bedroom, one big and one small. The small one was lying on the charred bed, and the big one was lying on the floor.Both bodies were curled up with limbs covered in charcoal.Their mouths were open, their lips half-burned and their teeth exposed, reminiscent of the pair crying out for help or crying before their deaths.

The fire chief Liang Wenxuan who was the first to rush into the scene of the fire could not help baring her teeth when she saw this tragic scene, although she had experienced many battles, and said, "It looks like a father and son, how miserable." Then she said to the fireman Ning Zhuo: " Did you notify the police station?"

Ning Zhuo said, "Zhao Mingwei, the director of the Jiangning Road Police Station, has already brought someone here."

Liang Wenxuan looked around the room and said, "Ning Zhuo, let's test your business level. Can you tell where the fire started?"

Ning Zhuo scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I've been thinking about it for a while. Since Team Liang asked, I'll make a fool of myself in front of the experts." He walked into the kitchen, stood by the wall between the kitchen and the bathroom, and said, " Here's where the fire started."

Liang Wenxuan was noncommittal and said, "Tell me the reason."

Ning Zhuo said: "The floor at this location has been completely burned, and the lower part of the remaining wooden keel is charred and corrugated. The one-and-a-half-meter-high wall, said, "The discolored part starts from the ground and shows a semi-V-shaped trace upwards, and there is an obvious heated surface around the V-shaped trace. These features all indicate that this is the point of fire."

Liang Wenxuan smiled and said, "That's right. I can combine theory with actual combat and apply what I have learned." Ning Zhuo was a top-notch professional in the fire brigade. Full display.

Ning Zhuo said: "However, the cause of the fire cannot be judged yet."

Liang Wenxuan said: "It is difficult to detect visually. Mosquito coils, electrical circuits, cigarette butts, and children playing with fire may all be the cause of the fire. From the scene, there are no traces that can be judged. Technical personnel need to be stationed to conduct a comprehensive inspection."

Two minutes later, Zhao Mingwei, director of the Jiangning Road Police Station, and Huang Manhua, the hostess of the burning family, walked into the burning room.Huang Manhua, who was dressed stylishly and coolly dressed, saw two black corpses lying prone in the bedroom through the door. After screaming, he collapsed to the ground, sweating profusely, incontinent urinating, and his body was soaked immediately.She struggled on the dark, messy ground, trying to crawl into the bedroom.

Zhao Mingwei exchanged pleasantries with the firefighters, and when he saw Huang Manhua's loss of composure, he hurried to the front to stop her, and said, "Are you Huang Manhua? I have already notified the criminal police team of the Municipal Bureau for an autopsy. Before they arrive, you can't Approaching the corpse."

Huang Manhua said in a hoarse voice like tearing: "Those are my husband and children, why don't you let me get close? They're dead, they're dead—" Huang Manhua was crying so hard that his voice was choked in his throat .

There were no policewomen at the scene, and it was difficult for Zhao Mingwei to reach out his hand to stop Huang Manhua, who was barely clothed, when he was in a hurry, someone from the criminal police team walked in.Zhao Mingwei let out a long breath as if seeing a rescuer.Su Caixuan and another policewoman finally comforted Huang Manhua, got her to sit in the police car downstairs, and returned to the scene of the fire.

Su Caixuan inspected the two charred corpses and said: "It looks like they were killed by the smoke from the fire, but to rule out that they were attacked before they died, an autopsy is needed."
