Recycled Porcelain [Ancient Wears Today]
Chapter 124
In the dead of night, I was soundly asleep, but was woken up by a sharp cat meow.Jiang Pingjian and his wife were getting old, and they even had heart palpitations and shortness of breath when they were awakened.
"What's going on?" The aunt said confusedly, "Isn't it too early for spring to come?"
Just as Jiang Pingjian was about to say something, he heard a shout from the other end of the corridor outside the door: "Get up, get up! Get up, it's on fire!!"
Scared, the old couple got up in a jerk, and went to open the door while scrambling.
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Pingjian snarled, turned around and grabbed two towels from his luggage, and wet them with the water in the water cup beside the bed.After covering his mouth and nose with a wet towel, he opened the door: "Let's walk on my back in a while!"
When they went out, they realized that the corridor was very hot, and the pungent smell of smoke wafted down the stairs. From here, they could see the bright and fiery red.
The Jiang family's old house is made of a mixture of brick and wood structures. In order to maintain the style of the Republic of China, a large part of the decoration is made of pure wood. Once a fire occurs, it will spread quite quickly.He was startled.He lived in this western-style building for a while when he was young, and it hasn't changed much in these years, so he is naturally very familiar with its structure.There is only one staircase in the whole building, if the fire is too big, they will not be able to escape if they cannot go down!
"My eldest grandson!" The eldest aunt anxiously knocked on the door opposite.
There was a noise on the second floor, and everyone heard the movement and acted quickly.At the same time, bursts of meowing were like sirens tearing at people's eardrums.
At this time, most of the people ran out, Jiang Feng said: "Where did the cat come from? But luckily the cat meowed, otherwise we might not be able to run away."
Brother Jiang Feng hugged the child nervously: "It probably belongs to the neighbor's house nearby. I don't remember having a cat at home."
Jiang Pingli and his wife rushed over from behind in a panic: "Why are you all crowded here, why don't you go downstairs?"
Feng Shuqing said with a pale face, "The fire under the stairs is very large. It looks like the entire hall on the first floor is on fire. It's very dangerous and you can't go there."
Feng Shuqing's elder brother-in-law suddenly squeezed over and said out of breath, "I went to see, and there was a big fire burning under the place where I could jump directly. This fire is not normal!"
Usually, when the fire rises, it always spreads from the ignition point, and there are no two irrelevant places that are on fire at the same time.
"You mean someone wants to set fire to us?!" Jiang Pingjian's face turned livid.
"What do we do now? How do we escape?" Jiang Feng panicked. He remembered something and said, "That's right! Where's Axin?! And Xu Jiuzhao! Where did the two of them go?"
At this moment, Jiang Pingjian's face turned pale again, and he shouted: "My dad!"
He ran towards the stairs.The old man loves to be quiet and has good legs and feet, so he lives alone on the third floor.At this time, the tongue of fire had already burned to the decoration on the second floor along the handrail of the stairs. The air was so hot that one could only feel the scalding pain when breathing.
He covered his face and rushed straight up to the third floor.Several young and strong young men followed closely behind and went up the stairs.When they nervously ran to the master bedroom on the third floor, they found that Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao, who had disappeared, were here.
Jiang Weiguo was still calm. He said solemnly with a straight face: "Why did you come to me? Why don't you run for your life?"
Jiang Pingjian said anxiously: "Dad! The first floor was blocked by fire and I couldn't go down. The windows on the second floor that I could jump out of were all set on fire. If I went out, I would fall into the fire."
Jiang Weiguo stared, "Don't panic!" Then he turned to Jiang Xin and said, "Ah Xin, do you think there is still a place to escape safely?"
When Jiang Xin heard that someone set the fire, his mind was a little confused, and he couldn't think of any way to escape.
"Meow~~~~~~" When I came to the master bedroom on the third floor, I could still hear Master Meow.The fire here is so fierce, coupled with the high-pitched screams of Master Meow, neighbors will definitely find out.
But because there is fuel to help the fire, it is estimated that no one dares to approach, and they will not be able to escape for a while when the firefighters come, and they may be choked to death.
"Where is Master Meow?" Xu Jiuzhao said anxiously, "Why do I hear its voice fluctuating from far and near?"
Jiang Xin pondered in his mind, and said in his mouth: "Don't worry, Master Miao is very alert. Animals have the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid harm..."
Speaking of this, he had a flash of inspiration, and then took out his mobile phone - which he brought out of the bedroom because he wanted to call the fire alarm, and opened a software.After a few seconds, the interface was swiped out, and the dot representing Master Meow was displayed in the middle.Jiang Xin frowned tightly, zoomed in and out on the small map with her fingers, and the whole environment was immediately replaced with the floor plan of the old house.
"I know!" Jiang Xin pinched her phone excitedly, "There are fires all around, the cat is afraid of fire, it will definitely find a place without fire! The top of the corridor in the backyard!! Let's escape from there!"
After speaking, Jiang Xin helped Jiang Weiguo up and walked towards the window on the third floor facing the corridor.There is a cornice under the window here, and the wall below it, because there are no windows on the second floor, the fire only spread over, but it didn't burn very badly.
Jiang Feng and the others hurried down the stairs and picked up the old, weak, women and children from below.Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao tore the sheets, soaked them in cold water, and hung them down the window.
Jiang Xin turned her back to Jiang Weiguo: "Grandpa, I'll carry you down!"
Jiang Weiguo waved his hand and said, "I'll be the last to go. Let the nimble young man go first, so don't waste time."
How stubborn Jiang Weiguo's temperament is, Jiang Xin, who has completely inherited him, is naturally clear.He bit his lip, turned his head and said to Xu Jiuzhao, "You go down first, and I will go with grandpa last."
"Stop arguing!" Xu Jiuzhao said in a solemn voice, "Let Jiang Feng Shuqing and the others go down first, so we can meet them from below."
Now everyone knows that every second counts. Jiang Weiguo and Jiang Pingjian let their grandson and children go down first, while Jiang Pingli, who stood aside in horror, gave the chance to escape to his children first, even though he was on the verge of falling.
A few young men went down first with their children on their backs, followed by the ladies, and then Jiang Pingli and the eldest aunt. A few men picked up the children and went down smoothly.
"Dad! You get off first!" Standing by the window, Jiang Pingjian insisted, "I'll go last."
The more time wasted, Jiang Weiguo no longer persisted, and climbed onto Jiang Xin's back.Jiang Xin climbed out of the window, grabbed the rope twisted from the bed sheet, and walked out on the eaves.
The bed sheet is made of cotton and linen, which is not particularly strong.She could afford it when she was alone, but when Jiang Xin went down with Jiang Weiguo on her back, she finally couldn't bear it and broke with a "tear".
Just when Jiang Xin's heart skipped a beat, her body fell down uncontrollably, was stopped by something, and hit a thick object.
"Ouch!!" Jiang Feng screamed.His elder brother quickly grabbed him, and Jiang Feng was about to be hit and fell off the roof of the corridor.
This corridor was built later to enjoy the cool air in summer. It is made up of "冂" shaped stone pillars, covered with wisteria vines.Although the distance between 冂 and 冂 is not short, the vines have grown for many years, and the coverage is tight and strong.It is enough for everyone to step on it, but the feet will be a little unstable.
Jiang Xin was a little dazed from the fall, her heart was still beating wildly, the elder cousin hurried over to help him up, and moved the old man who was pressed down by him out: "How are you, grandpa?"
Jiang Xin rolled over, got up and looked at Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Weiguo weakly raised his hand and waved it, indicating that he was fine.Jiang Xin pursed her lower lip, took out her mobile phone and stuffed it in Feng Shuqing's hand: "Call an ambulance!"
"What if the rope is broken? My dad is still up there?" Feng Shuqing said in panic.
"Don't worry! There's still time to get another one." Jiang Xin resisted the worry and anxiety in her heart, and said to her comfortingly.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger and had already burned along the wooden decorative fence outside. Jiang Xin looked up but couldn't see Xu Jiuzhao's figure.
Seeing that the bed sheet was broken from above, I was worried about the two people who fell down, and when I saw that they were all right, I started worrying about how I got down again.
If it was Xu Jiuzhao himself, jumping directly on the eaves, with the corridor roof as a buffer, it would be a fracture at most.But Jiang Pingjian and my uncle couldn't do it. They are both in their 60s and [-]s, so they couldn't bear such beatings.
Xu Jiuzhao turned his head to look, and ran to Jiang Weiguo's room.
"Hey - where are you going?" The little uncle called him at a loss.
Less than a minute later, Xu Jiuzhao came back with two quilts in his arms. He sullenly said to them, "Throw this away."
Jiang Pingjian's eyes lit up, he turned around and threw the quilt down from the window vigorously.Immediately after, Xu Jiuzhao pulled the brown mattress on Jiang Weiguo's bed, and the three of them worked together to erect the mattress and pushed it out.
"Use this to level things up!" Xu Jiuzhao shouted.
After a while, Jiang Xin's voice sounded: "Okay, come down!"
Xu Jiuzhao looked at the thick smoke billowing behind him. He stuck his head out, took a deep breath, and said to Jiang Pingjian, "You go first!"
Jiang Pingjian didn't talk too much, just climbed out of the window, followed by his uncle.Xu Jiuzhao was afraid that the eaves would not be able to bear the weight of the three of them, so he waited for both of them to go down, then turned out of the window and stood on the eaves.
The eaves are only for decoration, there is no load-bearing beam at all, and they are only supported by square wooden sticks the size of a wrist.It is covered with Western-style tiles, which are now broken and broken, and if you are not careful, you may even step on the air and fall.
Xu Jiuzhao stepped on the wooden stick carefully, and Jiang Xin below saw him and immediately waved to him: "Jiuzhao, hurry up!"
The people below backed away for a distance, and piled up a mat with brown mats and two quilts.Xu Jiuzhao walked to the edge cautiously, and the tiles under his feet made a disturbing sound.
Xu Jiuzhao jumped, and under his force, the cornice finally fell apart.Xu Jiuzhao didn't jump into the mat as planned, but fell into Jiang Xin's arms.
The force of Xu Jiuzhao's jumping down caused a dull pain in the chests of the two of them. "Cough, cough, cough!!" The two people, whose lungs were uncomfortable due to the vibration, coughed at the same time.
Someone behind him stretched out his hand and dragged the two of them away from the spot. Flames had already been ignited in the corners of the brown mat and quilt, and they were kicked down directly.
"Why did you pick me up?" Xu Jiuzhao scolded.
Jiang Xin hugged him tightly: "It's a good thing you're fine, otherwise I'd regret it to death." He swallowed hard, moistening his tight throat.
"Let's get out of here first." Jiang Feng came over, bent down and said to the two who were half sitting together and hugging tightly.
At this time, the siren of the fire truck was heard from a distance, Jiang Feng stood up excitedly, and shouted loudly in the direction of the courtyard gate.
It sounds thrilling, but in fact it has only been a quarter of an hour since the fire was discovered, but now the fire has burned to the third floor, which shows how fast it has spread.
Jiang Xin hugged Xu Jiuzhao tightly with lingering fear, if Master Miao hadn't cried out suddenly, they would really have been buried in flames.
The fire fighters who rushed to the scene were also shocked when they saw the fire scene. The fire spread too fast and too big, and it didn't seem like it burned in a short time.
Since the Chinese New Year is a major holiday, we must pay special attention to it. The people on duty at night sleep with their clothes on. The assembly was completed in 1 minute, and the police were dispatched in 3 minutes, but they arrived at the scene in 7 or 8 minutes.
The squadron leader was afraid that the fire would be lost and spread to other buildings, so he hurriedly called for support.The soldiers under him were well-trained to throw off the leather hose and connect it to the nearby fire hydrant, and the water hose immediately sprayed towards the burning building.
At this time, the soldiers who ran to the surroundings to confirm the situation found the Jiang family standing at the top of the corridor in the backyard, and were immediately overjoyed.Two soldiers came over with a ladder on their shoulders, protecting the people on top to get down one by one.An ambulance arrived soon, and besides Feng Shuqing's call, the squadron leader also called one just in case.
Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Pingli, the eldest aunt, several female relatives, and the two fathers took the children to the hospital one after another.Only Jiang Xin, Xu Jiuzhao, Jiang Feng, and Jiang Pingjian, who were in better condition, were left at the scene.
The squadron leader said to the four of them, "How did the fire start? Do you know?"
Jiang Pingjian trembled with anger when he thought about it: "It's not a fire at all, someone is going to burn us to death! It's so vicious!"
Jiang Feng was also very angry: "There are nearly 20 people in a family, old and young, it's devoid of conscience!"
Although he had doubts before, the squadron leader was shocked to hear that the fire was really set on purpose.
"Don't worry, talk slowly." The squadron leader first calmed their emotions, saying: "Don't worry, as long as someone really set the fire on purpose, the police will never let him go!"
After they calmed down, the squadron leader said: "I have notified the police, and they will arrive at the scene soon."
When the squadron leader had doubts before, he immediately notified the center, and the staff of the center notified the police district under his jurisdiction.
Not long after, several police cars drove over with blue and red lights.At this moment, the noise and flames had already alarmed the residents of this area, and many people gathered around to watch regardless of the cold.
After the police arrived, they immediately opened the cordon to prevent people from getting too close, so as not to damage the scene.
A policeman in his forties came to the Jiang family who were sitting or standing near the fire truck. He said to the eldest Jiang Pingjian: "I am the police officer in charge of this case. My surname is Zhou. I want you to know Let’s talk about it in detail.”
Beside him was a young policeman holding a file folder. Officer Zhou was asking questions while he was recording.
Jiang Pingjian said alone, and the others added, telling what they knew.
Police Officer Zhou was thoughtful. It seemed that some people hated this family to death, but all the lower floors that could escape from the second floor were burned. This completely ruled out the possibility of indiscriminate arson.
Police officer Zhou immediately ordered the young police officer next to him to collect video and photo information from the mobile phones of the surrounding onlookers for later use.
Then he asked: "Do you know anyone who has had trouble with you? Do you have any candidates for the suspect who may come to set the fire?"
When asked such a question, both Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao hesitated.Jiang Xin said: "Some time ago, we really offended many people. Both in France and in China."
Is this still an international case?Officer Zhou frowned, and then he realized that the two people in front of him looked familiar.He thought about the name he heard just now, and finally matched the name with the person he had seen in the news before.Immediately, his heart trembled, if not, this would be a major case to be registered!
He asked: "Tell me in detail who are there?"
Jiang Xin paused and said: "The one in France who had a feud before has been imprisoned, but I don't know if his relatives and friends in China will resent us. And the ones in China were sentenced to prison for libel and picking quarrels and provoking trouble. Those people in the prison, and there is a man named Zheng Kailong, who also has a grudge against us, and he is currently in custody and has not officially entered the judicial process."
Officer Zhou grinned inwardly: Huh!There are so many enemies.And this person is powerful enough, anyone who offends this person will be sent to prison.He said: "Okay, I have written down what you said, and I will start investigating when I go back."
"Meow-meow--" The penetrating meow sounded again and again, reminding people that the cat uncle demands attention.
Jiang Feng immediately stood up and looked around. This cat is a life-saving hero!He wants to see it with his own eyes.
The four of them followed the sound and saw a ladder driving a European-style gazebo at the end of the corridor. A firefighter was climbing on the top, tentatively reaching out to the yelling Miaoye, but he was always vigilant. Master Meow scratched it back with a wave of his paw.
It turned out that Master Miao ran here along the corridor, probably because he was too frightened at the time, and he jumped over a distance of 2 meters from the top of the corridor to the top of the pavilion.And right now, he was still in shock, not letting anyone approach him, and not daring to go down himself.
Jiang Xin looked at the firefighter in a funny standoff with Mr. Miao, and said, "Let me go up, this is our cat."
After the firefighters got down, Jiang Xin climbed up carefully. Master Miao pressed his front paws on his chest, and stared at Jiang Xin unfriendlyly with his round eyes.
"Hey, come down with me. You are also scared tonight, I will take you down, and then we will go home." Jiang Xin sympathized with its contribution, and said to Master Meow in a soft voice.
He gently pressed his hand on Master Miao's head, and stroked it along its back. Jiang Xin stroked it over and over again.The tense atmosphere between the two of them and the dislike of each other finally disappeared.
After touching it for a full 10 minutes, Master Miao gave a sweet cry: "Meow~~~".The tip of its tail trembled, and it licked Jiang Xin's wrist, expressing that it was merciful and forgiven the confrontation between the two "people" before.
Jiang Xin breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, he smiled, hugged Master Miao with one hand, and climbed down the ladder to the top of the gazebo.
"Master Miao, are you alright?" Xu Jiuzhao took it from Jiang Xin's hand with concern, checked it carefully, and found that Master Miao was not burned except for the unsightly burnt hair.
"Is this the cat? You raised it?" Jiang Feng came over curiously, wanting to reach out and touch it, but Master Miao made an unfriendly voice unhappily.
"It's probably frightened. It's not called touching by strangers now." Xu Jiuzhao said apologetically.
Let alone the present, Master Meow is not allowed to be touched by strangers even in normal times. Only those who have fed it will be willing to get close to it.
At this time, a lot of fire trucks came one after another, driving water guns around the small western building and spraying the flames.
The squadron leader came over and asked: "Are there any valuables in the house? If conditions permit, we will focus on rescue."
When he said this, the four people at the scene were silent.Everyone seems to be reminded of the existence of those things in the house only now.
The squadron leader asked sharply: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xin took a deep breath and said, "My grandfather has been running an antique pavilion since his grandfather was a well-known collector, so..."
Jiang Feng coughed: "Probably there is an antique worth hundreds of millions."
The squadron leader's mouth twitched suddenly, he was most afraid of this!
Jiang Xin looked at Jiang Feng with contempt: "You look down on Grandpa's private property too much! At least tens of millions or hundreds of millions!"
The squadron leader immediately wanted to pass out, it was the most difficult situation.He barely controlled his voice and asked calmly, "Where are these antiques located in the room?"
Jiang Xin looked at him with a smile and said: "Don't worry, because of the New Year, I was worried that many people would be accidentally damaged, so they were all put in the collection room. The walls of the room there are extra reinforced, which can be insulated from heat and fire. But If the burning time is too long, it will still affect the antiques inside."
Jiang Xin pointed out the location to the squadron leader, and the squadron leader went back and organized a team to attack this place.
The fire was not extinguished until 5:8 a.m. In order to prevent re-ignition, the fire brigade worked here until [-]:[-] a.m. before completely evacuating from the scene.The fire engine drove away, and only the fire department and the police remained at the scene to investigate and collect evidence.
Jiang Xin and the others couldn't go in, so they simply asked someone to drive the four of them to the home of Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao.
Tired for a long time, Jiang Xin arranged a room for the two of them and went back to the room and fell asleep. When they woke up, it was already afternoon.
Xu Jiuzhao and Jiang Xin's house is smaller than the Jiang's old house. Although there are many rooms, most of them have various functions. The guest rooms are not enough to accommodate all the relatives of the Jiang family.
When the Jiang family fled, most of them did not bring their belongings.ID cards, bank cards, mobile phones, cash, and portable computers were all lost in the flames.
Jiang Xin had no choice but to call Tang Xiaoyi to help, arrange accommodation for these people, apply for temporary ID cards, a sum of cash for each person, and buy mobile phones.Then there are a series of miscellaneous things such as the inside and outside clothes of each person.
Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao put more energy on taking care of Mr. Jiang.When Jiang Xin fell from the eaves, Jiang Weiguo was pinned under him, although Jiang Feng was there to cushion him.However, after all, Jiang Weiguo was old and in poor health. Not to mention he was a little out of breath, and had multiple soft tissue contusions, so he had to be hospitalized for a period of time.
When something like this happened, no one mentioned going home in the third grade of junior high school. Instead, they stayed to take care of the elderly in turn.
Jiang Pingli and other female relatives took care of the elderly and children, leaving a man with a bag to do some heavy work, while the others flocked to the police station, wanting to know the progress of the case.
Jiang Xin thought that this case would take a while to investigate, but he didn't expect that when they came to the door, they would have already caught him.
"It just so happens that you are here, I just wanted to call you." Officer Zhou smiled.
"Caught someone? Who wants to set fire to us?!" Jiang Xin was surprised and angry.
Is it Li Songyan?Or Zheng Kailong?Or the relatives of those few people who started rumors and were imprisoned.
The curvature of the corners of Police Officer Zhou's lips was suppressed, and the whole person showed an unpleasant gloom. He said slowly: "I think you all know this person. His name is Jiang Pingkang."
Jiang Pingkang? !
It was like a thunderbolt hit their heads directly, Jiang Pingjian shook his body, closed his eyes and fell down.Jiang Feng was still tongue-tied, only Xu Jiuzhao went over to help him quickly.
"Uncle!" "Dad! What's wrong with you?"
The three young men turned pale with fright. Police officer Zhou strode over and dragged Jiang Pingjian to a chair beside him and sat him down.
Jiang Pingjian slowly opened his eyes, and the eye circles were quickly filled with mist: "Why did the second brother do such an inhumane thing? We are all his close relatives, and he can be so cruel?!"
Jiang Pingjian was probably the saddest among those present.When he was young, he watched Jiang Pingkang grow into a young man. He had been separated for decades, and when he met again, he just got together and separated more. Jiang Pingjian’s feelings for Jiang Pingkang still remained in his youth. Pure time.But I didn't expect to receive such a big blow today.
Jiang Xin was gloomy, and he pursed his lips tightly and said: "He has no humanity at all! When something happened to me, he only cared about whose hands my inheritance would fall into. This is what he did!"
People will change, some people will get better, and some people will change beyond recognition.
"Dad, don't be angry, he wants to burn us to death, it's not worth it for you to burn your body because of him." Jiang Feng explained to his father on the sidelines.
To Jiang Pingkang, he was just an unfamiliar and unfamiliar relative and elder. Although he was also angry, he didn't have Jiang Pingjian's painful feeling of being killed by his siblings.
Xu Jiuzhao stood beside Jiang Xin silently, he could only slowly stroke Jiang Xin's back over and over again, just like he comforted Master Meow that night, so that he could calm down.
Police officer Zhou has dealt with more ugly crimes in the world, but this kind of crazy criminal still makes him sick.
He waited for the family to calm down for a while and said: "Although we asked about the enmity with Mr. Jiang before, we did not give up investigating the surveillance video near the scene. Because the house of Jiang's family is in the residential protection area of the Republic of China, there are traffic jams at the entrance and exit. Surveillance video. Our technicians analyzed the video frame by frame before and after the fire, and locked a suspicious vehicle. Then we tracked the car and determined his whereabouts.”
Officer Zhou waited for them to digest, and then said: "We confirmed his registered identity information at his place of residence, but it was a fake one. Fortunately, we successfully extracted his clear images and photos. Then put him Photos of him were sent to various units, and he was finally captured at the train station."
Jiang Xin clenched her fists and said with hatred in her voice: "Why on earth did he do this? Is he really so hateful that he wants to burn us all to death?"
Police Officer Zhou showed a strange look, and he shook his head: "Revenge is not his purpose. His demeanor and tone of speech are a bit nervous, as if he was overly stimulated by something. His emotions were very manic at the time, so control him It took a lot of effort from our police officers. His purpose of burning your family to death is ridiculous, he thinks that as long as you are all dead, the inheritance of the Jiang family will belong to him alone."
Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao looked at each other, this man hadn't given up yet, and he was able to do such crazy things for inheritance.
"Is this legal blind?" Jiang Feng supported his father in disbelief, "He is the perpetrator, and he is not qualified to inherit the victim's inheritance!"
"He seems to think it's done perfectly." Police Officer Zhou also sneered at this cold-blooded criminal, "As long as no one catches him."
This is a lunatic who is completely crazy about money and wealth. It seems that only money can bring him a sense of security and happiness in his vitality.What he wanted to kill was his father, his eldest brother and sister, nephews and nieces, and three young children!
When he committed this crime, he couldn't even remember that there was still a wife and daughter studying abroad in his family.
It is impossible to keep this matter hidden for a long time, so the few people carefully vaccinated Mr. Jiang before telling him the matter.
After Jiang Weiguo heard this, he suddenly aged a lot. He sank deeply in the quilt, and said with a dejected face: "I shouldn't have such a tough temper at the beginning? If I divide him, he won't Are you so persistent that you set the fire at the end?"
Jiang Xin was silent.
Jiang Pingkang didn't just set fire to it, the police found four discarded empty gasoline barrels near Jiang's house!
Xu Jiuzhao said: "Grandpa, you are not wrong. What is wrong is the greed of people." Jiang Weiguo turned his head slightly and looked at Xu Jiuzhao.Xu Jiuzhao said seriously: "Even if you changed your mind at that time, as long as you are still alive, he will not be able to get the money, and he will not be satisfied. The desire for money will make him commit crimes sooner or later!"
Jiang Weiguo was not talking, but he looked better.
Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao left the ward building. They stood under a crabapple tree next to the gate. Jiang Xin held Xu Jiuzhao's finger and said, "Thank you for enlightening Grandpa with those words, otherwise he would definitely go into a dead end." His son, to the point where he wants to kill his father and his whole family, why not make him sad.
Xu Jiuzhao said with anger in his voice, "I didn't do it just to appease the old man."
Jiang Xin raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, and Xu Jiuzhao pursed his lips tightly, seeming to restrain his anger, he said: "I will not let the world feel sorry for that villain any more! Excuse him a little bit of guilt!! How dare he Killing you just for the money—"
Only then did Jiang Xin realize that compared to his own anger, Xu Jiuzhao was going crazy.
The anger made Xu Jiuzhao's whole body tremble, Jiang Xin didn't care much, and directly opened his strong arms to hold him tightly in his arms.
Xu Jiuzhao pressed his face firmly on Jiang Xin's shoulder, his voice was trembling: "I understand what he's thinking! At that time when you were in trouble in Palau, he was thinking about your property. But now that there is no hope, he wants to kill you first. His target is definitely not grandpa, but you!"
He held onto Jiang Xin's clothes tightly, and he didn't care that the people around him looked at them in amazement.
"I will never let him go!"
Jiang Xin patted him on the back and whispered softly in his ear: "Okay, okay, never let him go."
Although in their eyes, Jiang Pingkang committed a heinous crime, but in the eyes of his wife, no matter what his husband did, he could be forgiven.
She also absolutely cannot accept that her husband is going to jail.
Jiang Erbo's wife Zhong Huiting and nephew Zhong Tao came to their home in person and begged them to let their husband go.
Jiang Xin laughed back angrily: "Why didn't you let him let us go when he poured gasoline on us and burned us to death?"
Zhong Huiting is very old and thin, she looks really pitiful.But as long as he thought of his husband, Xu Jiuzhao couldn't feel any pity.He sat on the side with a cold face, not wanting to say a word to them.
Zhong Huiting defended weakly: "He was just confused for a while, really, Xin. Please forgive him, he is your second uncle after all."
Jiang Xin said with a cold face: "It is because he is my second uncle that I cannot forgive him."
Zhong Tao said: "I know that my uncle did something wrong, but no one can do anything wrong without being a sage. Please raise your hands high and leave some hope for this helpless woman and daughter."
Because it is a century-old protected area residence, every brick and tile there carries history.Setting fire to one of the houses is a particularly serious crime.Coupled with the intentional murder, the murderer was Xu Jiuzhao, who was known as a humanoid national treasure, and the impact was extremely bad.
Jiang Pingkang's lawyer told Zhong Huiting that it is very likely that he will be sentenced to life imprisonment or the death penalty.
However, this matter is not without room for change. As long as Jiang Pingkang can obtain the victim's forgiveness, no matter how sincerely he repents, he may still seek to reduce the sentence.
But Jiang Xin said: "Second Aunt, I advise you not to worry about this matter. You might as well take this opportunity to divorce this kind of person and start a new life."
Zhong Huiting was angry when she heard this, and no matter what she said, she couldn't provoke the relationship between the husband and wife, she had better take advantage of this critical moment.
Seeing the anger on her face, Jiang Xin said, "I'm afraid there is one thing you don't know. How did the art company run by my second uncle collapse? Do you know the reason?"
Zhong Tao was taken aback, and said uncertainly, "Isn't it because of the failure of the investment to break the capital chain?"
Jiang Xin sneered: "This is just a reason to prevaricate people who don't know. In fact, the real reason is because he spent a large sum of money to please his mistress and bought her a villa worth tens of millions. As a result, he got into trouble." The other party sold the villa at a low price and ran away with donations. He couldn't get the cash and eventually went bankrupt!" Seeing Zhong Huiting's pale face instantly, he said sympathetically, "Just for this kind of person, is it worth it?"
Zhong Huiting and Jiang Pingkang are young couples, Jiang Pingkang has the airs of a young master but is not successful at all, Zhong Huiting's natal family supported them.
She thought that the relationship between the two of them was very good, but she didn't expect to be severely slapped in the face by reality.
The two left and left, Xu Jiuzhao still looked unhappy.
Jiang Xin touched his face with a smile: "What's the matter? Don't be upset, it's your birthday soon, let's go out for a day and relax, okay?"
Xu Jiuzhao's eyes flickered for a moment, he leaned back on the sofa behind him, and said uncomfortably, "Don't think I don't know that it's Valentine's Day."
Jiang Xin is really happy now, although Xu Jiuzhao can always do things that make people feel touching and romantic unconsciously, but it is because of his sincerity and sincerity.In fact, he himself does not have any special thoughts to create romance.It's rare for him to realize that his birthday is Valentine's Day. This is definitely influenced by Jiang Xin.
"Yeah, it's Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day should be spent with two people, so let's go out." Jiang Xin said with a smile.
Xu Jiuzhao refused: "No, we won't go out tomorrow."
Jiang Xin was surprised: "Why? You have other arrangements."
Xu Jiuzhao turned his eyes away, his ears felt a little hot: "Well, I have prepared a gift for you, and you have to sign for it tomorrow."
Jiang Xin was suddenly aroused curiosity, let him pester Xu Jiuzhao to ask questions, but the other party didn't say anything.So Jiang Xin, who was waiting for the delivery to arrive on Valentine's Day, opened the received
"What's going on?" The aunt said confusedly, "Isn't it too early for spring to come?"
Just as Jiang Pingjian was about to say something, he heard a shout from the other end of the corridor outside the door: "Get up, get up! Get up, it's on fire!!"
Scared, the old couple got up in a jerk, and went to open the door while scrambling.
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Pingjian snarled, turned around and grabbed two towels from his luggage, and wet them with the water in the water cup beside the bed.After covering his mouth and nose with a wet towel, he opened the door: "Let's walk on my back in a while!"
When they went out, they realized that the corridor was very hot, and the pungent smell of smoke wafted down the stairs. From here, they could see the bright and fiery red.
The Jiang family's old house is made of a mixture of brick and wood structures. In order to maintain the style of the Republic of China, a large part of the decoration is made of pure wood. Once a fire occurs, it will spread quite quickly.He was startled.He lived in this western-style building for a while when he was young, and it hasn't changed much in these years, so he is naturally very familiar with its structure.There is only one staircase in the whole building, if the fire is too big, they will not be able to escape if they cannot go down!
"My eldest grandson!" The eldest aunt anxiously knocked on the door opposite.
There was a noise on the second floor, and everyone heard the movement and acted quickly.At the same time, bursts of meowing were like sirens tearing at people's eardrums.
At this time, most of the people ran out, Jiang Feng said: "Where did the cat come from? But luckily the cat meowed, otherwise we might not be able to run away."
Brother Jiang Feng hugged the child nervously: "It probably belongs to the neighbor's house nearby. I don't remember having a cat at home."
Jiang Pingli and his wife rushed over from behind in a panic: "Why are you all crowded here, why don't you go downstairs?"
Feng Shuqing said with a pale face, "The fire under the stairs is very large. It looks like the entire hall on the first floor is on fire. It's very dangerous and you can't go there."
Feng Shuqing's elder brother-in-law suddenly squeezed over and said out of breath, "I went to see, and there was a big fire burning under the place where I could jump directly. This fire is not normal!"
Usually, when the fire rises, it always spreads from the ignition point, and there are no two irrelevant places that are on fire at the same time.
"You mean someone wants to set fire to us?!" Jiang Pingjian's face turned livid.
"What do we do now? How do we escape?" Jiang Feng panicked. He remembered something and said, "That's right! Where's Axin?! And Xu Jiuzhao! Where did the two of them go?"
At this moment, Jiang Pingjian's face turned pale again, and he shouted: "My dad!"
He ran towards the stairs.The old man loves to be quiet and has good legs and feet, so he lives alone on the third floor.At this time, the tongue of fire had already burned to the decoration on the second floor along the handrail of the stairs. The air was so hot that one could only feel the scalding pain when breathing.
He covered his face and rushed straight up to the third floor.Several young and strong young men followed closely behind and went up the stairs.When they nervously ran to the master bedroom on the third floor, they found that Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao, who had disappeared, were here.
Jiang Weiguo was still calm. He said solemnly with a straight face: "Why did you come to me? Why don't you run for your life?"
Jiang Pingjian said anxiously: "Dad! The first floor was blocked by fire and I couldn't go down. The windows on the second floor that I could jump out of were all set on fire. If I went out, I would fall into the fire."
Jiang Weiguo stared, "Don't panic!" Then he turned to Jiang Xin and said, "Ah Xin, do you think there is still a place to escape safely?"
When Jiang Xin heard that someone set the fire, his mind was a little confused, and he couldn't think of any way to escape.
"Meow~~~~~~" When I came to the master bedroom on the third floor, I could still hear Master Meow.The fire here is so fierce, coupled with the high-pitched screams of Master Meow, neighbors will definitely find out.
But because there is fuel to help the fire, it is estimated that no one dares to approach, and they will not be able to escape for a while when the firefighters come, and they may be choked to death.
"Where is Master Meow?" Xu Jiuzhao said anxiously, "Why do I hear its voice fluctuating from far and near?"
Jiang Xin pondered in his mind, and said in his mouth: "Don't worry, Master Miao is very alert. Animals have the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid harm..."
Speaking of this, he had a flash of inspiration, and then took out his mobile phone - which he brought out of the bedroom because he wanted to call the fire alarm, and opened a software.After a few seconds, the interface was swiped out, and the dot representing Master Meow was displayed in the middle.Jiang Xin frowned tightly, zoomed in and out on the small map with her fingers, and the whole environment was immediately replaced with the floor plan of the old house.
"I know!" Jiang Xin pinched her phone excitedly, "There are fires all around, the cat is afraid of fire, it will definitely find a place without fire! The top of the corridor in the backyard!! Let's escape from there!"
After speaking, Jiang Xin helped Jiang Weiguo up and walked towards the window on the third floor facing the corridor.There is a cornice under the window here, and the wall below it, because there are no windows on the second floor, the fire only spread over, but it didn't burn very badly.
Jiang Feng and the others hurried down the stairs and picked up the old, weak, women and children from below.Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao tore the sheets, soaked them in cold water, and hung them down the window.
Jiang Xin turned her back to Jiang Weiguo: "Grandpa, I'll carry you down!"
Jiang Weiguo waved his hand and said, "I'll be the last to go. Let the nimble young man go first, so don't waste time."
How stubborn Jiang Weiguo's temperament is, Jiang Xin, who has completely inherited him, is naturally clear.He bit his lip, turned his head and said to Xu Jiuzhao, "You go down first, and I will go with grandpa last."
"Stop arguing!" Xu Jiuzhao said in a solemn voice, "Let Jiang Feng Shuqing and the others go down first, so we can meet them from below."
Now everyone knows that every second counts. Jiang Weiguo and Jiang Pingjian let their grandson and children go down first, while Jiang Pingli, who stood aside in horror, gave the chance to escape to his children first, even though he was on the verge of falling.
A few young men went down first with their children on their backs, followed by the ladies, and then Jiang Pingli and the eldest aunt. A few men picked up the children and went down smoothly.
"Dad! You get off first!" Standing by the window, Jiang Pingjian insisted, "I'll go last."
The more time wasted, Jiang Weiguo no longer persisted, and climbed onto Jiang Xin's back.Jiang Xin climbed out of the window, grabbed the rope twisted from the bed sheet, and walked out on the eaves.
The bed sheet is made of cotton and linen, which is not particularly strong.She could afford it when she was alone, but when Jiang Xin went down with Jiang Weiguo on her back, she finally couldn't bear it and broke with a "tear".
Just when Jiang Xin's heart skipped a beat, her body fell down uncontrollably, was stopped by something, and hit a thick object.
"Ouch!!" Jiang Feng screamed.His elder brother quickly grabbed him, and Jiang Feng was about to be hit and fell off the roof of the corridor.
This corridor was built later to enjoy the cool air in summer. It is made up of "冂" shaped stone pillars, covered with wisteria vines.Although the distance between 冂 and 冂 is not short, the vines have grown for many years, and the coverage is tight and strong.It is enough for everyone to step on it, but the feet will be a little unstable.
Jiang Xin was a little dazed from the fall, her heart was still beating wildly, the elder cousin hurried over to help him up, and moved the old man who was pressed down by him out: "How are you, grandpa?"
Jiang Xin rolled over, got up and looked at Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Weiguo weakly raised his hand and waved it, indicating that he was fine.Jiang Xin pursed her lower lip, took out her mobile phone and stuffed it in Feng Shuqing's hand: "Call an ambulance!"
"What if the rope is broken? My dad is still up there?" Feng Shuqing said in panic.
"Don't worry! There's still time to get another one." Jiang Xin resisted the worry and anxiety in her heart, and said to her comfortingly.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger and had already burned along the wooden decorative fence outside. Jiang Xin looked up but couldn't see Xu Jiuzhao's figure.
Seeing that the bed sheet was broken from above, I was worried about the two people who fell down, and when I saw that they were all right, I started worrying about how I got down again.
If it was Xu Jiuzhao himself, jumping directly on the eaves, with the corridor roof as a buffer, it would be a fracture at most.But Jiang Pingjian and my uncle couldn't do it. They are both in their 60s and [-]s, so they couldn't bear such beatings.
Xu Jiuzhao turned his head to look, and ran to Jiang Weiguo's room.
"Hey - where are you going?" The little uncle called him at a loss.
Less than a minute later, Xu Jiuzhao came back with two quilts in his arms. He sullenly said to them, "Throw this away."
Jiang Pingjian's eyes lit up, he turned around and threw the quilt down from the window vigorously.Immediately after, Xu Jiuzhao pulled the brown mattress on Jiang Weiguo's bed, and the three of them worked together to erect the mattress and pushed it out.
"Use this to level things up!" Xu Jiuzhao shouted.
After a while, Jiang Xin's voice sounded: "Okay, come down!"
Xu Jiuzhao looked at the thick smoke billowing behind him. He stuck his head out, took a deep breath, and said to Jiang Pingjian, "You go first!"
Jiang Pingjian didn't talk too much, just climbed out of the window, followed by his uncle.Xu Jiuzhao was afraid that the eaves would not be able to bear the weight of the three of them, so he waited for both of them to go down, then turned out of the window and stood on the eaves.
The eaves are only for decoration, there is no load-bearing beam at all, and they are only supported by square wooden sticks the size of a wrist.It is covered with Western-style tiles, which are now broken and broken, and if you are not careful, you may even step on the air and fall.
Xu Jiuzhao stepped on the wooden stick carefully, and Jiang Xin below saw him and immediately waved to him: "Jiuzhao, hurry up!"
The people below backed away for a distance, and piled up a mat with brown mats and two quilts.Xu Jiuzhao walked to the edge cautiously, and the tiles under his feet made a disturbing sound.
Xu Jiuzhao jumped, and under his force, the cornice finally fell apart.Xu Jiuzhao didn't jump into the mat as planned, but fell into Jiang Xin's arms.
The force of Xu Jiuzhao's jumping down caused a dull pain in the chests of the two of them. "Cough, cough, cough!!" The two people, whose lungs were uncomfortable due to the vibration, coughed at the same time.
Someone behind him stretched out his hand and dragged the two of them away from the spot. Flames had already been ignited in the corners of the brown mat and quilt, and they were kicked down directly.
"Why did you pick me up?" Xu Jiuzhao scolded.
Jiang Xin hugged him tightly: "It's a good thing you're fine, otherwise I'd regret it to death." He swallowed hard, moistening his tight throat.
"Let's get out of here first." Jiang Feng came over, bent down and said to the two who were half sitting together and hugging tightly.
At this time, the siren of the fire truck was heard from a distance, Jiang Feng stood up excitedly, and shouted loudly in the direction of the courtyard gate.
It sounds thrilling, but in fact it has only been a quarter of an hour since the fire was discovered, but now the fire has burned to the third floor, which shows how fast it has spread.
Jiang Xin hugged Xu Jiuzhao tightly with lingering fear, if Master Miao hadn't cried out suddenly, they would really have been buried in flames.
The fire fighters who rushed to the scene were also shocked when they saw the fire scene. The fire spread too fast and too big, and it didn't seem like it burned in a short time.
Since the Chinese New Year is a major holiday, we must pay special attention to it. The people on duty at night sleep with their clothes on. The assembly was completed in 1 minute, and the police were dispatched in 3 minutes, but they arrived at the scene in 7 or 8 minutes.
The squadron leader was afraid that the fire would be lost and spread to other buildings, so he hurriedly called for support.The soldiers under him were well-trained to throw off the leather hose and connect it to the nearby fire hydrant, and the water hose immediately sprayed towards the burning building.
At this time, the soldiers who ran to the surroundings to confirm the situation found the Jiang family standing at the top of the corridor in the backyard, and were immediately overjoyed.Two soldiers came over with a ladder on their shoulders, protecting the people on top to get down one by one.An ambulance arrived soon, and besides Feng Shuqing's call, the squadron leader also called one just in case.
Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Pingli, the eldest aunt, several female relatives, and the two fathers took the children to the hospital one after another.Only Jiang Xin, Xu Jiuzhao, Jiang Feng, and Jiang Pingjian, who were in better condition, were left at the scene.
The squadron leader said to the four of them, "How did the fire start? Do you know?"
Jiang Pingjian trembled with anger when he thought about it: "It's not a fire at all, someone is going to burn us to death! It's so vicious!"
Jiang Feng was also very angry: "There are nearly 20 people in a family, old and young, it's devoid of conscience!"
Although he had doubts before, the squadron leader was shocked to hear that the fire was really set on purpose.
"Don't worry, talk slowly." The squadron leader first calmed their emotions, saying: "Don't worry, as long as someone really set the fire on purpose, the police will never let him go!"
After they calmed down, the squadron leader said: "I have notified the police, and they will arrive at the scene soon."
When the squadron leader had doubts before, he immediately notified the center, and the staff of the center notified the police district under his jurisdiction.
Not long after, several police cars drove over with blue and red lights.At this moment, the noise and flames had already alarmed the residents of this area, and many people gathered around to watch regardless of the cold.
After the police arrived, they immediately opened the cordon to prevent people from getting too close, so as not to damage the scene.
A policeman in his forties came to the Jiang family who were sitting or standing near the fire truck. He said to the eldest Jiang Pingjian: "I am the police officer in charge of this case. My surname is Zhou. I want you to know Let’s talk about it in detail.”
Beside him was a young policeman holding a file folder. Officer Zhou was asking questions while he was recording.
Jiang Pingjian said alone, and the others added, telling what they knew.
Police Officer Zhou was thoughtful. It seemed that some people hated this family to death, but all the lower floors that could escape from the second floor were burned. This completely ruled out the possibility of indiscriminate arson.
Police officer Zhou immediately ordered the young police officer next to him to collect video and photo information from the mobile phones of the surrounding onlookers for later use.
Then he asked: "Do you know anyone who has had trouble with you? Do you have any candidates for the suspect who may come to set the fire?"
When asked such a question, both Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao hesitated.Jiang Xin said: "Some time ago, we really offended many people. Both in France and in China."
Is this still an international case?Officer Zhou frowned, and then he realized that the two people in front of him looked familiar.He thought about the name he heard just now, and finally matched the name with the person he had seen in the news before.Immediately, his heart trembled, if not, this would be a major case to be registered!
He asked: "Tell me in detail who are there?"
Jiang Xin paused and said: "The one in France who had a feud before has been imprisoned, but I don't know if his relatives and friends in China will resent us. And the ones in China were sentenced to prison for libel and picking quarrels and provoking trouble. Those people in the prison, and there is a man named Zheng Kailong, who also has a grudge against us, and he is currently in custody and has not officially entered the judicial process."
Officer Zhou grinned inwardly: Huh!There are so many enemies.And this person is powerful enough, anyone who offends this person will be sent to prison.He said: "Okay, I have written down what you said, and I will start investigating when I go back."
"Meow-meow--" The penetrating meow sounded again and again, reminding people that the cat uncle demands attention.
Jiang Feng immediately stood up and looked around. This cat is a life-saving hero!He wants to see it with his own eyes.
The four of them followed the sound and saw a ladder driving a European-style gazebo at the end of the corridor. A firefighter was climbing on the top, tentatively reaching out to the yelling Miaoye, but he was always vigilant. Master Meow scratched it back with a wave of his paw.
It turned out that Master Miao ran here along the corridor, probably because he was too frightened at the time, and he jumped over a distance of 2 meters from the top of the corridor to the top of the pavilion.And right now, he was still in shock, not letting anyone approach him, and not daring to go down himself.
Jiang Xin looked at the firefighter in a funny standoff with Mr. Miao, and said, "Let me go up, this is our cat."
After the firefighters got down, Jiang Xin climbed up carefully. Master Miao pressed his front paws on his chest, and stared at Jiang Xin unfriendlyly with his round eyes.
"Hey, come down with me. You are also scared tonight, I will take you down, and then we will go home." Jiang Xin sympathized with its contribution, and said to Master Meow in a soft voice.
He gently pressed his hand on Master Miao's head, and stroked it along its back. Jiang Xin stroked it over and over again.The tense atmosphere between the two of them and the dislike of each other finally disappeared.
After touching it for a full 10 minutes, Master Miao gave a sweet cry: "Meow~~~".The tip of its tail trembled, and it licked Jiang Xin's wrist, expressing that it was merciful and forgiven the confrontation between the two "people" before.
Jiang Xin breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, he smiled, hugged Master Miao with one hand, and climbed down the ladder to the top of the gazebo.
"Master Miao, are you alright?" Xu Jiuzhao took it from Jiang Xin's hand with concern, checked it carefully, and found that Master Miao was not burned except for the unsightly burnt hair.
"Is this the cat? You raised it?" Jiang Feng came over curiously, wanting to reach out and touch it, but Master Miao made an unfriendly voice unhappily.
"It's probably frightened. It's not called touching by strangers now." Xu Jiuzhao said apologetically.
Let alone the present, Master Meow is not allowed to be touched by strangers even in normal times. Only those who have fed it will be willing to get close to it.
At this time, a lot of fire trucks came one after another, driving water guns around the small western building and spraying the flames.
The squadron leader came over and asked: "Are there any valuables in the house? If conditions permit, we will focus on rescue."
When he said this, the four people at the scene were silent.Everyone seems to be reminded of the existence of those things in the house only now.
The squadron leader asked sharply: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xin took a deep breath and said, "My grandfather has been running an antique pavilion since his grandfather was a well-known collector, so..."
Jiang Feng coughed: "Probably there is an antique worth hundreds of millions."
The squadron leader's mouth twitched suddenly, he was most afraid of this!
Jiang Xin looked at Jiang Feng with contempt: "You look down on Grandpa's private property too much! At least tens of millions or hundreds of millions!"
The squadron leader immediately wanted to pass out, it was the most difficult situation.He barely controlled his voice and asked calmly, "Where are these antiques located in the room?"
Jiang Xin looked at him with a smile and said: "Don't worry, because of the New Year, I was worried that many people would be accidentally damaged, so they were all put in the collection room. The walls of the room there are extra reinforced, which can be insulated from heat and fire. But If the burning time is too long, it will still affect the antiques inside."
Jiang Xin pointed out the location to the squadron leader, and the squadron leader went back and organized a team to attack this place.
The fire was not extinguished until 5:8 a.m. In order to prevent re-ignition, the fire brigade worked here until [-]:[-] a.m. before completely evacuating from the scene.The fire engine drove away, and only the fire department and the police remained at the scene to investigate and collect evidence.
Jiang Xin and the others couldn't go in, so they simply asked someone to drive the four of them to the home of Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao.
Tired for a long time, Jiang Xin arranged a room for the two of them and went back to the room and fell asleep. When they woke up, it was already afternoon.
Xu Jiuzhao and Jiang Xin's house is smaller than the Jiang's old house. Although there are many rooms, most of them have various functions. The guest rooms are not enough to accommodate all the relatives of the Jiang family.
When the Jiang family fled, most of them did not bring their belongings.ID cards, bank cards, mobile phones, cash, and portable computers were all lost in the flames.
Jiang Xin had no choice but to call Tang Xiaoyi to help, arrange accommodation for these people, apply for temporary ID cards, a sum of cash for each person, and buy mobile phones.Then there are a series of miscellaneous things such as the inside and outside clothes of each person.
Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao put more energy on taking care of Mr. Jiang.When Jiang Xin fell from the eaves, Jiang Weiguo was pinned under him, although Jiang Feng was there to cushion him.However, after all, Jiang Weiguo was old and in poor health. Not to mention he was a little out of breath, and had multiple soft tissue contusions, so he had to be hospitalized for a period of time.
When something like this happened, no one mentioned going home in the third grade of junior high school. Instead, they stayed to take care of the elderly in turn.
Jiang Pingli and other female relatives took care of the elderly and children, leaving a man with a bag to do some heavy work, while the others flocked to the police station, wanting to know the progress of the case.
Jiang Xin thought that this case would take a while to investigate, but he didn't expect that when they came to the door, they would have already caught him.
"It just so happens that you are here, I just wanted to call you." Officer Zhou smiled.
"Caught someone? Who wants to set fire to us?!" Jiang Xin was surprised and angry.
Is it Li Songyan?Or Zheng Kailong?Or the relatives of those few people who started rumors and were imprisoned.
The curvature of the corners of Police Officer Zhou's lips was suppressed, and the whole person showed an unpleasant gloom. He said slowly: "I think you all know this person. His name is Jiang Pingkang."
Jiang Pingkang? !
It was like a thunderbolt hit their heads directly, Jiang Pingjian shook his body, closed his eyes and fell down.Jiang Feng was still tongue-tied, only Xu Jiuzhao went over to help him quickly.
"Uncle!" "Dad! What's wrong with you?"
The three young men turned pale with fright. Police officer Zhou strode over and dragged Jiang Pingjian to a chair beside him and sat him down.
Jiang Pingjian slowly opened his eyes, and the eye circles were quickly filled with mist: "Why did the second brother do such an inhumane thing? We are all his close relatives, and he can be so cruel?!"
Jiang Pingjian was probably the saddest among those present.When he was young, he watched Jiang Pingkang grow into a young man. He had been separated for decades, and when he met again, he just got together and separated more. Jiang Pingjian’s feelings for Jiang Pingkang still remained in his youth. Pure time.But I didn't expect to receive such a big blow today.
Jiang Xin was gloomy, and he pursed his lips tightly and said: "He has no humanity at all! When something happened to me, he only cared about whose hands my inheritance would fall into. This is what he did!"
People will change, some people will get better, and some people will change beyond recognition.
"Dad, don't be angry, he wants to burn us to death, it's not worth it for you to burn your body because of him." Jiang Feng explained to his father on the sidelines.
To Jiang Pingkang, he was just an unfamiliar and unfamiliar relative and elder. Although he was also angry, he didn't have Jiang Pingjian's painful feeling of being killed by his siblings.
Xu Jiuzhao stood beside Jiang Xin silently, he could only slowly stroke Jiang Xin's back over and over again, just like he comforted Master Meow that night, so that he could calm down.
Police officer Zhou has dealt with more ugly crimes in the world, but this kind of crazy criminal still makes him sick.
He waited for the family to calm down for a while and said: "Although we asked about the enmity with Mr. Jiang before, we did not give up investigating the surveillance video near the scene. Because the house of Jiang's family is in the residential protection area of the Republic of China, there are traffic jams at the entrance and exit. Surveillance video. Our technicians analyzed the video frame by frame before and after the fire, and locked a suspicious vehicle. Then we tracked the car and determined his whereabouts.”
Officer Zhou waited for them to digest, and then said: "We confirmed his registered identity information at his place of residence, but it was a fake one. Fortunately, we successfully extracted his clear images and photos. Then put him Photos of him were sent to various units, and he was finally captured at the train station."
Jiang Xin clenched her fists and said with hatred in her voice: "Why on earth did he do this? Is he really so hateful that he wants to burn us all to death?"
Police Officer Zhou showed a strange look, and he shook his head: "Revenge is not his purpose. His demeanor and tone of speech are a bit nervous, as if he was overly stimulated by something. His emotions were very manic at the time, so control him It took a lot of effort from our police officers. His purpose of burning your family to death is ridiculous, he thinks that as long as you are all dead, the inheritance of the Jiang family will belong to him alone."
Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao looked at each other, this man hadn't given up yet, and he was able to do such crazy things for inheritance.
"Is this legal blind?" Jiang Feng supported his father in disbelief, "He is the perpetrator, and he is not qualified to inherit the victim's inheritance!"
"He seems to think it's done perfectly." Police Officer Zhou also sneered at this cold-blooded criminal, "As long as no one catches him."
This is a lunatic who is completely crazy about money and wealth. It seems that only money can bring him a sense of security and happiness in his vitality.What he wanted to kill was his father, his eldest brother and sister, nephews and nieces, and three young children!
When he committed this crime, he couldn't even remember that there was still a wife and daughter studying abroad in his family.
It is impossible to keep this matter hidden for a long time, so the few people carefully vaccinated Mr. Jiang before telling him the matter.
After Jiang Weiguo heard this, he suddenly aged a lot. He sank deeply in the quilt, and said with a dejected face: "I shouldn't have such a tough temper at the beginning? If I divide him, he won't Are you so persistent that you set the fire at the end?"
Jiang Xin was silent.
Jiang Pingkang didn't just set fire to it, the police found four discarded empty gasoline barrels near Jiang's house!
Xu Jiuzhao said: "Grandpa, you are not wrong. What is wrong is the greed of people." Jiang Weiguo turned his head slightly and looked at Xu Jiuzhao.Xu Jiuzhao said seriously: "Even if you changed your mind at that time, as long as you are still alive, he will not be able to get the money, and he will not be satisfied. The desire for money will make him commit crimes sooner or later!"
Jiang Weiguo was not talking, but he looked better.
Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao left the ward building. They stood under a crabapple tree next to the gate. Jiang Xin held Xu Jiuzhao's finger and said, "Thank you for enlightening Grandpa with those words, otherwise he would definitely go into a dead end." His son, to the point where he wants to kill his father and his whole family, why not make him sad.
Xu Jiuzhao said with anger in his voice, "I didn't do it just to appease the old man."
Jiang Xin raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, and Xu Jiuzhao pursed his lips tightly, seeming to restrain his anger, he said: "I will not let the world feel sorry for that villain any more! Excuse him a little bit of guilt!! How dare he Killing you just for the money—"
Only then did Jiang Xin realize that compared to his own anger, Xu Jiuzhao was going crazy.
The anger made Xu Jiuzhao's whole body tremble, Jiang Xin didn't care much, and directly opened his strong arms to hold him tightly in his arms.
Xu Jiuzhao pressed his face firmly on Jiang Xin's shoulder, his voice was trembling: "I understand what he's thinking! At that time when you were in trouble in Palau, he was thinking about your property. But now that there is no hope, he wants to kill you first. His target is definitely not grandpa, but you!"
He held onto Jiang Xin's clothes tightly, and he didn't care that the people around him looked at them in amazement.
"I will never let him go!"
Jiang Xin patted him on the back and whispered softly in his ear: "Okay, okay, never let him go."
Although in their eyes, Jiang Pingkang committed a heinous crime, but in the eyes of his wife, no matter what his husband did, he could be forgiven.
She also absolutely cannot accept that her husband is going to jail.
Jiang Erbo's wife Zhong Huiting and nephew Zhong Tao came to their home in person and begged them to let their husband go.
Jiang Xin laughed back angrily: "Why didn't you let him let us go when he poured gasoline on us and burned us to death?"
Zhong Huiting is very old and thin, she looks really pitiful.But as long as he thought of his husband, Xu Jiuzhao couldn't feel any pity.He sat on the side with a cold face, not wanting to say a word to them.
Zhong Huiting defended weakly: "He was just confused for a while, really, Xin. Please forgive him, he is your second uncle after all."
Jiang Xin said with a cold face: "It is because he is my second uncle that I cannot forgive him."
Zhong Tao said: "I know that my uncle did something wrong, but no one can do anything wrong without being a sage. Please raise your hands high and leave some hope for this helpless woman and daughter."
Because it is a century-old protected area residence, every brick and tile there carries history.Setting fire to one of the houses is a particularly serious crime.Coupled with the intentional murder, the murderer was Xu Jiuzhao, who was known as a humanoid national treasure, and the impact was extremely bad.
Jiang Pingkang's lawyer told Zhong Huiting that it is very likely that he will be sentenced to life imprisonment or the death penalty.
However, this matter is not without room for change. As long as Jiang Pingkang can obtain the victim's forgiveness, no matter how sincerely he repents, he may still seek to reduce the sentence.
But Jiang Xin said: "Second Aunt, I advise you not to worry about this matter. You might as well take this opportunity to divorce this kind of person and start a new life."
Zhong Huiting was angry when she heard this, and no matter what she said, she couldn't provoke the relationship between the husband and wife, she had better take advantage of this critical moment.
Seeing the anger on her face, Jiang Xin said, "I'm afraid there is one thing you don't know. How did the art company run by my second uncle collapse? Do you know the reason?"
Zhong Tao was taken aback, and said uncertainly, "Isn't it because of the failure of the investment to break the capital chain?"
Jiang Xin sneered: "This is just a reason to prevaricate people who don't know. In fact, the real reason is because he spent a large sum of money to please his mistress and bought her a villa worth tens of millions. As a result, he got into trouble." The other party sold the villa at a low price and ran away with donations. He couldn't get the cash and eventually went bankrupt!" Seeing Zhong Huiting's pale face instantly, he said sympathetically, "Just for this kind of person, is it worth it?"
Zhong Huiting and Jiang Pingkang are young couples, Jiang Pingkang has the airs of a young master but is not successful at all, Zhong Huiting's natal family supported them.
She thought that the relationship between the two of them was very good, but she didn't expect to be severely slapped in the face by reality.
The two left and left, Xu Jiuzhao still looked unhappy.
Jiang Xin touched his face with a smile: "What's the matter? Don't be upset, it's your birthday soon, let's go out for a day and relax, okay?"
Xu Jiuzhao's eyes flickered for a moment, he leaned back on the sofa behind him, and said uncomfortably, "Don't think I don't know that it's Valentine's Day."
Jiang Xin is really happy now, although Xu Jiuzhao can always do things that make people feel touching and romantic unconsciously, but it is because of his sincerity and sincerity.In fact, he himself does not have any special thoughts to create romance.It's rare for him to realize that his birthday is Valentine's Day. This is definitely influenced by Jiang Xin.
"Yeah, it's Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day should be spent with two people, so let's go out." Jiang Xin said with a smile.
Xu Jiuzhao refused: "No, we won't go out tomorrow."
Jiang Xin was surprised: "Why? You have other arrangements."
Xu Jiuzhao turned his eyes away, his ears felt a little hot: "Well, I have prepared a gift for you, and you have to sign for it tomorrow."
Jiang Xin was suddenly aroused curiosity, let him pester Xu Jiuzhao to ask questions, but the other party didn't say anything.So Jiang Xin, who was waiting for the delivery to arrive on Valentine's Day, opened the received
