Aoba Office
Chapter 108 Explosion (2)
I could do nothing but wait outside the cordon like the onlookers. It took Tao Hai three hours to descend from the fourth floor to the second floor. The fire brigade sprayed water for three hours. Two more fire trucks came later and dozens of firefighters entered, but none of them could bring him down. Brought out by residents above the second floor. Listening to the yelling of the firefighters, they couldn't get to the second floor at all, so they walked back to the first floor.
The thin man made a mouthful gesture to me, which was "ghost hits the wall". I think so. I also have a hunch that this matter is related to Tao Hai.
Sure enough, when Tao Hai arrived on the second floor, something changed. He no longer moved up and down, but was pulled and moved backwards. Looking in that direction, it was his home, the cornucopia. My heart became heavier.
After another hour of this, the smoke and fire miraculously diminished, and the firefighters finally rushed to the second floor and carried several unconscious people off their backs. These people were just comatose, had no trauma, and their chests rose and fell normally. The medical staff gave the person a rough check, confirmed that they were alive, and rushed the person to the hospital. I saw Aunt Xu, but not Tao Hai, and couldn't help but doubt what I had just seen.
The old leader stood for such a long time, with his back straight and his feet not shaking. But we were still worried, but no matter how much we tried to persuade him, he would not leave. Director Mao came to meet the old leader. He admired him very much and tried to persuade him. He even asked people to bring in chairs, but the old leader refused. A few of us took turns supporting the old leader to make him feel more relaxed.
When the firefighters rushed to the fourth floor, they carried out several wounded people when they came down. Looking at it like that, it shouldn't be called wounded, but dead. There were seven people in total, covered in blood and flesh, beyond recognition. Many of the onlookers around him vomited and screamed in surprise, and many of them dispersed at once.
I found that after experiencing Chu Run's incident, my ability to adapt to such bloody scenes has improved a lot, and I almost don't feel it anymore. However, I was still terrified at the moment. The last bloody corpse was wearing shabby blue overalls, exactly the same as the numb Tao Hai I saw. That height and figure are also Tao Hai's. Even though he is completely unrecognizable now, I can still conclude that this is Tao Hai.
"It's on the fourth floor, could it be..." the thin man muttered softly.
No one answered, but I thought they all had the same idea as me, and I had the same idea as the thin man.
Except for these seven, all the people rescued later were just unconscious.
The police arrived now. Chen Xiaoqiu and the old leader both looked at the young man walking in the front. He was in his thirties, mature and handsome, and was incompatible with the middle-aged policemen around him. If anyone could read the epaulettes on that uniform, they would be even more surprised. .
The thin man and the fat man and I all looked at Chen Xiaoqiu.
Chen Xiaoqiu nodded, "My brother-in-law."
As a civil servant, unless you are incredibly boring, you will have heard some gossip from the upper echelons. We have an old leader here, and other departments give us some face, so we hear more gossip. We have all heard of the young and promising police chief of Minqing City, but we did not expect him to be such a young man.
"How old are you?" The thin man whispered.
"thirty-seven."
He looks like he's in his early thirties! Very well maintained. I'm a little envious of the Chen family's uncle. Not only is he young and promising, but he's also handsome. It's really annoying to compare people to each other.
"Xiao Chen is a very promising young man. He joined the army as a special forces soldier and achieved military merit. After his recovery, he joined the police SWAT team and made meritorious service along the way. He also has a doctorate in investigative science and criminology," the old leader said.
Because there were not many casualties, the old leader's tense nerves relaxed and his words were as kind and purposeful as usual.
After hearing this, I felt envious and jealous again. Judging from the expressions of the three skinny guys, they look similar to mine.
This kind of person should be called a genius, right?
Chen Xiaoqiu lowered his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his lips slightly. He was obviously very proud of his uncle.
The uncle of the Chen family saw us and nodded to the old leader. When his eyes swept over Chen Xiaoqiu, his eyes softened a bit. Because he had work, he didn't come over to say hello, but instead checked in with the fire brigade to learn about the situation.
When we saw that things were almost done, we said goodbye to Director Mao and first found a coffee shop outside the community to rest.
The old leader was not used to drinking coffee, so Guo Yujie ordered black tea and snacks for him.
"You should also pay more attention to this matter, but don't go too far. This matter is not directly related to the demolition. Your main job is to understand the situation and follow up on the conditions of the residents." The old leader drank a few sips of tea and ate snacks. , took out his mobile phone, called back the person who called just now, turned to us and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You can go ask inside the community later."
"Old leader, I'll take you back." I stood up.
"I have an impromptu meeting. You can take me to the city hall."
I sent the old leader to the city hall. He said that the meeting was very long and asked me to go back without waiting for him. He would go home directly afterwards. The old leader has always been polite to us. His two sons are both in business and have their own cars and drivers. The two sons personally take the old leader to and from get off work. I listened to his words and drove back to the Sixth Village of Workers and Peasants.
The thin man and the others were still in the coffee shop, and when they saw me coming back, their eyes were burning.
After I sat down, I rubbed my face and took a big gulp of ice water.
"Brother Qi?" The thin man called out cautiously.
"That's Tao Hai." I said.
The four of them were stunned.
"who?"
"The person I saw at the window was Tao Hai. He moved from the fourth floor to the second floor and was pulled back to his home." I said tiredly.
The thin man was speechless. The fat man was silent. Guo Yujie was in a panic and didn't know what to say.
Chen Xiaoqiu was still calm, "He moved from the fourth floor to the second floor?"
"Among the seven corpses, the last one to be carried out was Tao Hai."
"What's going on?" Guo Yujie couldn't help but ask.
"In one case, Tao Hai was hiding on the fourth floor, died there in an accident, and his soul returned home; in the second case, Tao Hai was not hiding on the fourth floor..." Chen Xiaoqiu stopped talking in the middle of his analysis.
"That person doesn't seem like the kind of person who would commit a crime." I shook my head.
The five of us have a tacit understanding about this.
The abnormal explosion, thick smoke, fire, and the seven tragic corpses made people imagine. The imagination that best satisfies these points is that the seven people were making dangerous items in the residential complex. Something went wrong and an explosion and fire broke out. The fire was difficult to extinguish, so only seven of them died tragically.
I have only met Tao Hai once, but the impression I left at that time and what I learned from other people show that Tao Hai is a cowardly and incompetent person. How dare such a person commit a crime?
"Chu Run and Zhou Xiangyang." Chen Xiaoqiu gave two names.
This example was so cruel that I was speechless for a moment.
"This is a matter for the police to investigate." The thin man leaned back in his chair and said carelessly, "It has nothing to do with us."
"But the fire brigade has been unable to rush upstairs..." The fat man looked at me hesitantly.
"I don't know." I smiled bitterly, "I can just see ghosts."
"You might see it again tonight." Guo Yujie patted me on the shoulder.
I was photographed and leaned forward, but I didn't bother complaining to Guo Yujie. All I could think about was Tao Hai's dull face.
