"Is what he just said true? Did you come here just to keep me company...?"

I don’t know if the girl thought about it too much, but Mu Jingxian thought too much when he saw this sentence. His cheeks turned red again, and he silently moved his head to a place where she couldn’t see him.

Then he typed a reply.

"I just followed you here because I was curious about this matter."

Mu Jingxian repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing strange about this sentence before clicking send.

Lin Sisi's phone dinged, and she received a reply from Mu Jingxian.

She pursed her lips, thinking that it was really surprising that Mu Jingxian was actually interested in things other than his sister and the company.

She thought for a moment, typed the words, and before she could click send, Long Tianyi stood up and said, "I'm done eating. Sorry to have kept you two waiting. Let's get to the point."

Lin Sisi raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice, and saw Long Tianyi cleaning the table. He threw the disposable lunch box into the trash can, took a tissue and wiped his mouth, then turned his eyes to them. Lin Sisi quickly retracted her gaze, but was caught off guard and saw Mu Jingxian staring at her face.

She was stunned, and Mu Jingxian was also stunned.

Lin Sisi suddenly withdrew his gaze, turned off the phone in his hand, and felt his cheeks a little hot.

Long Tianyi didn't notice the strange atmosphere between the two people. He turned on the projector by himself, and the screen instantly flashed to a news report from several years ago.

Long Tianyi said: "I have already explained the general situation to President Mu. Now let's talk about the details. Miss Song, this matter is related to your biological father. I hope you can listen carefully."

As he spoke, he mentioned Lin Sisi, and at that moment she came back to her senses from the embarrassment she had just felt.

Lin Sisi hummed uncomfortably and said nothing more.

But I was muttering in my heart that I came here just because of this matter, so of course I must listen and watch carefully.

"Then I will play this news report from seven or eight years ago."

As soon as he finished speaking, Long Tianyi clicked the play button, and the journalist on the screen began a sonorous report. The words "Floor exploded, no one survived" were written in large letters on the screen, which was very shocking to watch.

Lin Sisi listened to the journalist reporting the entire process of the incident. Then the screen flashed and a journalist appeared who was reporting in real time from the scene. The floor behind him had been blown out. The fire was very strong and thick smoke was rolling into the sky. The sound of sirens was extremely noisy and the people around were talking and crying loudly. Firefighters not far away were holding water guns to put out the fire. No one knew what had happened in this building.

When reporters arrived at the scene, it was nearly three hours since the fire broke out, and it still hadn't been put out. The scene was filled with scattered rubble from the explosion of the building, some of which had injured innocent passers-by, not to mention those who were in the building whose lives were in danger.

After the dispatched reporter finished his report, the camera switched back to the original scene. The reporter said seriously that they would continue to investigate and find survivors to find the truth...

Lin Sisi was silent. Although she had heard about the company explosion from Song Xinxi, she had not expected the scene to be so tragic. Not only was the roof of the building blown through, but so many firefighters had been fighting the fire for three hours and still failed to put it out. It showed how big the incident was.

The audio clip automatically paused after it finished playing, and the room became quiet in an instant.

Long Tianyi observed Song Xiaoqian carefully, and seeing her frowning with a look of regret, he said, "Miss Song, I remember you were only five or six years old at that time, do you remember anything?"

Lin Sisi curled her lips, thinking why did he still ask her when he had already investigated everything clearly? Was he testing her or something?

And let her see this news first. What on earth does this guy Long Tianyi want to do?

Before she could express her doubts, Mu Jingxian took over and said seriously: "Just say it if you have something to say."

Lin Sisi was instantly moved and looked at Mu Jingxian. She didn't expect that he would actually speak up for her.

Long Tianyi said: "Oh, I just want to ask about the key content that didn't appear in the previous files. I'm not doing anything bad. I just ask a few questions. Look how anxious Mr. Mu is."

After hearing this, Lin Sisi's mouth twitched. She always felt that Long Tianyi seemed to do it on purpose.

I glanced at Mu Jingxian quietly and found that his face turned dark instantly because of this sentence.

Lin Sisi hurriedly said, "I heard from my mother that my father did die because of the explosion in the company, but the police officer showed me this. Could it be that the current case involving Qin is related to this incident?"

She was just asking casually, but she didn't expect that she would hit the mark by accident.

After Long Tianyi said something related, he didn't say anything else related to it. He smiled very mysteriously, but changed the subject and talked about other things.

"The investigation of this case was very difficult. It took the police half a month to find the cause of the explosion. During the investigation, they also searched for people involved in the incident. However, they found that most of the people in the company died inside, from small employees to senior leaders. No one survived."

Lin Sisi was silent. She rubbed her fingers nervously. She had never expected that everyone in the entire building would die in the explosion. This was really...

But why doesn't she have any impression of this?

Was it because she didn't watch much TV at that time?

Well, she couldn't see it even if she wanted to.

In addition, since I am not close to people around me, it is normal that I don’t know.

Mu Jingxian asked, "Although the police investigated for half a month, they still concluded that the explosion was caused by a collective short circuit in the company's lines. No one mentioned this matter after a week, and the building is still abandoned. Now you are talking about this matter again. Did you find something? What does this have to do with what you said at the beginning about Song Xiaoqian's father?"

His question hit the nail on the head. Long Tianyi gave him an appreciative look and continued, "The police said this to avoid causing panic among the public. In fact, there was a bottleneck in the investigation. No matter how the police investigated, they could not find any useful clues. However, they found gunpowder that was banned by the country at the fire scene. Looking at the damage to the building, it turned out that the whole building was actually set with a time bomb. It was only a matter of time before it exploded."
