Chapter 8 - Fire Love (2)
Everyone rushed over, and Chen Bai pointed to the clear footprints on the ground and the cigarette butts that had been stomped on.
"The footprints are very clear, and the cigarette butt has just been cut off for a long time. It means that at least there was a person standing here earlier today. He saw his eyes standing here..."
Everyone followed Chen Bai's words and looked forward, and they saw the fire scene. From this perspective, they could see it at a glance.
"Is it just a coincidence? This is just a footprint of an employee in this supermarket. He came up and wanted to smoke a cigarette and relax?"
Kong Bingxuan was a little unbelievable. She didn't believe that Chen Bo could find the murderer just by looking at the photos at the scene.
"When I came up just now, I saw that there were surveillance monitors in the supermarket. There were at least three surveillance monitors facing the stairs that reached the roof. We just need to check the surveillance and we will know everything."
Bai Hongwei nodded, and everyone after checking and monitoring were shocked, because the person standing on the roof was indeed a supermarket employee.
"Look, I'm right!"
Kong Bingxuan was a little proud because the surveillance showed that the staff of this supermarket went upstairs.
"Boss, can we talk to this person?"
"sure!"
But when the boss told Bai Hongwei and others that the person was here to resign today, Chen Bai actually smiled.
"That's right, it's this person."
"What do you mean?"
Chen Bai knew that this was not the time to explain this. After asking the boss for the address and phone number, the group rushed towards the man's home quickly.
"Shan Tong, male, 25 years old, came out to work after graduating from junior high school. There is no problem with this person's resume. Is it a bit too rash to just look for Chen Bai?"
"Yes, but as soon as a fire broke out here, the man resigned, and he didn't even need to pay the salary and turned off his phone. This made people wonder what was so anxious and so coincidental."
Soon, Bai Hongwei and his group rushed to Shan Tong's residence. In order to avoid alarming the enemy, the few went in separately. Bai Hongwei also contacted the landlord of the house early in the morning.
"Comrade Police! You must have misunderstood, right? Shan Tong is a good child, obedient, sensible and polite. He is very kind to us elderly people and often helps us with work. This..."
The landlord is a woman in her sixties. Chen Bai quickly interrupted the landlord if she kept talking like this, everything would be delayed.
"Auntie, do you live in the same place?"
"Yes, this kid is a little introverted and doesn't like talking to others, but he is definitely a good person!"
Chen Bai nodded and quickly asked the police in the jurisdiction to take the landlord away.
"Dabinzi has already come to the back and watch, let's go to the front door."
Shan Tong lives on the first floor. The landlord's first floor living room has a huge floor-to-ceiling window, and this floor-to-ceiling window can still be opened. In order to prevent Shan Tong from escaping, Dabinzi and Kong Bingxuan have already brought people to block the back.
"Walk!"
The two opened the security door in the corridor and walked slowly to the first floor.
"Click!"
The moment Chen Bai opened the door, Bai Hongwei rushed in immediately. Seeing this, Chen Bai quickly followed.
"No one?"
Bai Hongwei looked around and found that there was no one in the room.
"No one, come in!"
Chen Bai looked around the room and saw a simple one-bedroom and one-living room. As soon as you enter the door, the toilet is opposite to the living room, the bedroom is next to the toilet, and the kitchen is on the right.
"Chen Bai, do you need to set up checkpoints at the airport terminal high-speed rail to prevent him from escaping?"
Chen Bai didn't say anything, just stared at a wall in the living room and stared blankly.
"Chen Bo?"
"Look at this wall, what's the difference?"
Bai Hongwei was a little confused. Is it time to see this? If Shan Tong really took advantage of this time, it would be difficult for them to catch people.
"Don't worry, he will never run away. Let's see what's the difference between this wall?"
Bai Hongwei looked carefully, but couldn't see anything.
"If you look closely, the light and shadow effects on this wall are actually different. There are many photos hanging in this place, but why are there no more now?"
"Is it time to see this now? Dan Tong is gone. If we let it go, he will likely commit the crime again."
Chen Bai suddenly turned around when he heard this. Bai Hongwei was stunned for a moment when he saw Chen Bai's eyes.
"Is that so? Then I want to ask you what good solutions are there now. There is no monitoring in the old community, so we don't know where Dan Tong is going. The only way to catch him is to figure out why he set fire. As long as we know this, we can stop him or even catch him."
Bai Hongwei looked at Chen Bai and didn't know what to say for a moment. Chen Bai's eyes and tone changed. At this time, Chen Bai was more like a hunter looking forward to his prey taking the bait.
"Let's go to the bedroom to check it out!"
Chen Bai pushed open the bedroom door, and at this time Dabinzi and Kong Bingxuan also came in.
"Captain, what should we do now?"
Bai Hongwei didn't say anything. Dabinzi saw Chen Bai standing at the door of the bedroom. Dabinzi walked to Chen Bai and looked into the room with Chen Bai's eyes, but it was this glance that scared Chen Bai.
The walls in the bedroom were filled with paintings, and the floors in the bedroom were also scattered with chaotic painting paper. The curtains in the house were pulled up, and Dabinzi casually turned on the light next to him.
"This is...."
All the paintings are a theme - fire, all kinds of fire. Some of them turned into meteors and landed on earth, and some of them burned the entire forest. However, among these many paintings, Chen Bai only noticed one. In the painting, Prometheus stood above the clouds and used flames to impose heavenly punishment on earth.
"Chen Bo, come and have a look at this!"
Chen Bai walked out of the room and Bai Hongwei found the sponge rope and two barrels of gasoline from the cabinet in the living room.
"Dabinzi, investigate the social relationship between Shantong immediately. I have a premonition that the third fire will not take long."
"The third game?"
Chen Bai had already walked to the door at this time and said anxiously as he saw the few people standing still in place.
"Okay, I don't have time to explain now. We will explain to you on the way back first."
On the car back, Chen Bo showed Bai Hongwei the incident of the fire on the ground a few days ago. Bai Hongwei asked in confusion after reading the news.
"Didn't this fire be finally caused by aging of the line? Do you think it's related to our case?"
Chen Bai took back his cell phone, took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Although I have no evidence yet, look at the location of the first fire. The base shop is not far from the flower and bird market. Fires have occurred in such a close place in a short period of time. I don't think it's that simple. Dabinzi, if you go with me later, I'll have a good look."
