today's island

Chapter 72 Cases 6-3

Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo both went home for dinner, and Wan Yi and Su Xiaozhi just received a reminder of the queue number of the hot pot restaurant.

There are so many college students who come to join in the fun today that it is unimaginable. It is lucky to be ranked first.

There are three tables in front of them. The two of them came out of the milk tea shop downstairs. After waiting for 800 years, they couldn't wait for the vertical elevator. They had to go around the mall and go up.

"What do you think those rich young men are doing every day?" Su Xiaozhi was still very concerned about the long-lost dinner appointment, "Do you want to make trouble in their circle?"

Although she is a rotten girl, her understanding of the same-sex circle is still limited to literature and stories around her, and she really hasn't come into contact with many gays outside the task force.

"It shouldn't be today, but usually it is..." Wan Yi shrugged. He is a straight man, he is already open-minded if he doesn't contradict this circle, and he will never go inside to find out.

"You said..." Su Xiaozhi wondered curiously, "Can I disguise myself as a man and sneak into the Turning where they always go?"

"Just say you're a friend of Team Lu. It really doesn't need to be so troublesome, and it's not like there are no girls going in." Wan Yi told her.

"Really, can he eat so much?" Su Xiaozhi asked in surprise.

"Of course, you think we're all joking?" Wan Yi asked back.He once picked up the interpersonal network of everyone in the special case team. Lu Yuanzhe was considered a small celebrity in the island city, so it was easy to find out.Ding Chenyu is also very famous, but it is much more mysterious. It is not clear why he changed his career to become a criminal police halfway.

"Then I'll ask Team Lu to take me another day..." Su Xiaozhi just started talking, when suddenly there was a loud noise above her head, shaking all the glass, which suddenly turned the second half of her sentence into a sharp voice. cried, "Ah!"

"Be careful!" Wan Yi moved closer to the wall and grabbed her, and the two of them leaned against the wall together.

The loud noise lingered in my mind for a long time. Several pieces of glass opposite them were broken, and other shoppers squatted down screaming.

"What's the situation?!" Although Su Xiaozhi screamed, she quickly came back to her senses, seeing that she was surrounded by Wan Yi, she burst out laughing, "Are you really a bit masculine, or am I really a bit feminine?" Charm? Shouldn't I be protecting you?"

Wan Yi was in a daze for longer than she did, but she quickly answered the call and slapped her chest proudly: "It's me who is a bit manly, and now I have a sense of honor as a policeman."

It's a pity that there was no time for them to joke around. There was a lot of noise upstairs, and the riot obviously hadn't stopped.Although neither of them had a gun, they ran upstairs along the escalator immediately.While running, remind the guests who are squatting on the ground to go downstairs or move to the corner, and be careful not to be trampled.

After climbing three floors in one breath, they found the source of the loud noise - the newly opened hot pot restaurant on the top floor.

The hot pot restaurant that was so lively just a moment ago is now in a mess, all the glass is broken, thick smoke is billowing, and even some open flames can be seen.Two surrounding stores were also affected, and the tables and chairs were overturned. Fortunately, no serial explosions occurred.

People inside and outside were all dazed, those who could move instinctively ran out and sat in various places in the corridor; those who couldn't move curled up on the ground, and hadn't recovered yet.

"What's the situation?!" Su Xiaozhi said and was about to rush in, after thinking about it, she went to the next door to borrow a wet towel.

"I'll call the police first, you pay attention to safety." Wan Yi hurriedly took out his mobile phone to notify the bureau.

·

An explosion occurred in a hot pot restaurant in the downtown area, and the sound of the explosion could be heard within a radius of one or two kilometers.The police report from the Public Security Bureau was answered over and over again. Sun Yan was still dealing with the case elsewhere, but he was called here by the phone.

Although there was a traffic jam for 5 minutes, he was still very satisfied with the speed of police dispatch today.There was thick smoke billowing in the store. Before the police arrived, only the security guards were trying to put out the fire and save people. Most passers-by did not dare to approach, including the reporters who came after hearing the news. Therefore, there were no overwhelming pictures of the wounded on the Internet.

God knows how there are so many reporters arriving at the scene so quickly in the island city. If the police hadn't dealt with various newspapers and media frequently, he would suspect that this is a spy group. Every time there is a case, if the police are a little slower, they will be arrested They cleaned it up and even added oil and vinegar.

Especially the largest local newspaper in Daocheng, which is "Daocheng Morning News". Their Weibo and official account are simply "Daocheng Second Report".

That's why he was very satisfied today. Even reporters like these agents didn't dare to rush into the scene to shoot this time. They and the firefighters successfully intercepted them, and they all looked outside the cordon.

Rescue is the most important thing. Firefighters and medical personnel entered the scene first, and the police were responsible for evacuating the crowd.The gas explosion caused heavy casualties in the kitchen. All the chefs died on the spot, and three others were seriously injured and sent to the hospital. It is said that the situation is not optimistic.Most of the guests were slightly injured, but there were also a few who were seriously injured or died, and they were quickly resettled by division of labor.

Taking advantage of the rescue time, Sun Yan asked the manager of the hotpot restaurant for the list of chefs and waiters.This hot pot restaurant just opened today, and it is very busy. It seems that a lot of staff have been hired temporarily, and they are busy. It may be an accident due to this reason.

With such a big case, the onlookers were all dumbfounded. When the reporters figured out the situation, they had basically completed the rescue work, and all that was left was to seal the door and determine the nature of the case.

Sun Yan heaved a sigh of relief after successfully getting ahead of the reporters in every link and entering the kitchen.

For an explosion in a closed environment, the temperature in the room has not completely dropped.Subconsciously tugging at the collar, he glanced at Su Xiaozhi and Wan Yi.

To say that his only dissatisfaction today is that the shrimp soldiers and crab generals from the two task forces were actually present at the scene.

He specifically asked: "Why are you here? Is it related to you?"

"What's the matter with us..." Su Xiaozhi spoke bluntly and almost told the truth.

"Whether it's related or not will only be known after investigation." But Wan Yi held her back.

It doesn't matter, these two soldiers and crab generals have nothing to worry about, and he is relieved knowing that there is no invitation letter.

If this case was done by Yan, the nature would be completely different, and Lu Yuanzhe was fully in charge, so he didn't want to report to Lu Yuanzhe.

But soon he became uncomfortable again—the scene had just been cleaned up, and Lu Yuanzhe arrived.It doesn't count if he arrives alone, and he also brings Cheng Mo, who their criminal investigation team dare not order casually.

I don't know if it's because of the mayor's father. Although Cheng Mo has a cute face, Sun Yan feels that he can't command him at all.

Lu Yuanzhe seemed to have already listened to his report on the mobile phone. He didn't need to ask what happened. He walked over to Sun Yan and greeted him casually: "Team Sun is here."

"Of course I'm here." Sun Yan gave Lu Yuanzhe a look, and asked again, "Why are you here? Is it related to you?"

"My team members almost sat in the store, so I can't come and see?" Lu Yuanzhe didn't give him a good face, but he was much more relaxed than him, and comforted him, "Don't worry, if something unexpected happens, I'll leave immediately , so as not to delay your work."

It’s fine if it’s not a case that was announced by the banquet. They entered the kitchen together. After the explosion, it was full of sundries and debris, and even the ceiling fell down. The corpses and wounded were carried away, leaving only a mess.

The detonation point has been cleared out. It is an old connection of the gas pipeline. As for whether it was an accident or man-made, it is impossible to see the way.

"This is a new store, will the pipes age and rust?" Sun Yan asked.

"The manager said that the gas was directly rebuilt from the pipes of the former hotel." The colleague of the trace inspection team replied that he had just checked the leak point. "I don't think there are any traces of artificial cutting, but it may not have been tightened at that time."

"The interface is so old, it has only been treated with raw tape, which is indeed a safety hazard." Another member of the trace inspection team echoed.

"If there are no human-made traces, let's deal with it as an ordinary gas leak first." He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that although there were a few uninvited guests and heavy casualties, it was not a complicated case.

As soon as he put his heart down, Lu Yuanzhe interjected: "Farewell, count the staff who have entered the kitchen today, it's not an ordinary gas leak."

"You know again?" He had a bad premonition again.

"I really know." Lu Yuanzhe shrugged, and found the wreckage of a set of natural gas monitoring equipment from the ground, "Isn't the problem here?"

Everyone leaned over to see that the small square box must have been blown up, and now it was lying on the ground in disarray, but the cut wires could still be clearly seen.Everyone is paying attention to the detonation point. No one really cares when this thing flies so far.

"It's all high-tech now, so there's no need to manually maintain the air leakage problem every day." He glanced at Sun Yan, "Don't try to be passive and sabotage, this is a man-made disaster."

"Look at what time your department closes get off work, and what time we leave work." Sun Yan stared back immediately, "It's amazing to have sharp eyes, who is passive and sabotage?"

Lu Yuanzhe didn't speak, and stepped aside to look at the staff list.And he suppressed the embarrassment in his heart, and organized everyone to check the entire kitchen to see if there were any tools for committing the crime.

Ten minutes later, they found the pliers and wrench, both in the same cabinet.There was still oil stains on the wrench, but no clear fingerprints were found.It seems that someone did destroy the natural gas monitoring equipment first, and then unscrewed the gas connection while everyone was busy.

Lu Yuanzhe had expected it all, and his unhappiness reached its peak immediately, he turned his head to look at Lu Yuanzhe holding his stomach full of anger, and met his serious gaze.

Well, his bad premonition has also reached its maximum——

Lu Yuanzhe put his phone up, and showed him a picture on the staff list: "I'm sorry, Team Sun, we have to join the investigation again. This Wei Fanghong has an important relationship with Yan Ye's case, and we have been looking for him for a week."

"..." He had a headache when he heard the case investigation, paused, frowned and asked his team members in a low voice, "Who is Wei Fanghong?"

The team members also shook their heads, not only them, he glanced at Su Xiaozhi and Wan Yi, all of them looked blank.

"Who is Wei Fanghong?" Su Xiaozhi also asked in a low voice.

"It's Jiang Xiaoyu's new boyfriend." Cheng Mo replied as briefly as possible, "The person who introduced Zhao Pengcheng's mysterious friend."

Then the problem is coming...

"Who is Jiang Xiaoyu?" Sun Yan frowned, completely unable to remember this person.

puff.Lu Yuanzhe turned his head away and laughed out loud.

So Sun Yan didn't like working with Lu Yuanzhe at all.
