"Brother Ziyou, wait for me!" Wu Xuefei quickly chased after her, and Ren Xiaoxiao and Zhan Rong were no exception.
"Is there any flight back to Yangzhou now? If so, help me book a ticket and take me to the airport." Long Ziyou said to Zhan Rong as soon as he got in the car.
"I'll call you and ask," Zhan Rong said on the phone while starting the car.
After a while, Zhan Rong put down her phone and stepped on the accelerator, "There is a flight at twelve o'clock. I have asked someone to book the ticket for you. Let's go to the airport right now."
The speed of Zhan Rong's Land Rover suddenly soared to over 120 yards, and she could drive through the red light without fail. Fortunately, it was late at night and it was the Spring Festival, so the traffic flow was much less than usual. Zhan Rong's
Only in this way can she increase the speed. In normal times, she would have the ability of the car king Schumacher, but it would be in vain!
"Brother Ziyou, what happened? You have to rush back overnight?" Ren Xiaoxiao asked with concern.
What Ren Xiaoxiao asked was what Wu Xuefei and Zhan Rong were concerned about, so they both pricked up their ears.
"There is a fire in a wood processing factory, and people may be dead. I have to rush back to deal with it as soon as possible." Long Ziyou said with a serious face.
"What's the big deal? It's not too late for you to go back tomorrow." Wu Xuefei said disapprovingly.
Tsk, it really hurts my back to stand and talk. A layman speaks a layman's language! Long Ziyou laughed and laughed, but he also knew that Wu Xuefei was not a member of the system. There were some things that she didn't understand, so she had a reason to say such things.
Can be forgiven.
"You are really ignorant," Ren Xiaoxiao said with contempt, "Brother Ziyou is the mayor of the town. If something like this happens, he has to take leadership responsibility, so of course he has to rush back to deal with it as soon as possible."
"You...you are amazing, okay?" Wu Xuefei felt very embarrassed after losing to Ren Xiaoxiao.
"How is the situation? Do you need help?" At this time, Zhan Rong, who was silent, suddenly interrupted.
Although Zhan Rong's tone was very calm, Long Ziyou could feel the concern in it. He shook his head, "Thank you, I will speak if necessary. The cause of the fire has not been identified yet, so it is still fashionable to say this."
morning."
"Especially find out the cause of the fire. If someone set the fire, it would be much simpler." Zhan Rong reminded.
"Well, I know this. I'm afraid it's just a simple accident." Long Ziyou sighed softly. He didn't expect that his first hurdle after becoming the mayor would come so soon. If he couldn't pass this threshold,
Then I can only leave Hezhuang sadly.
Seeing that Long Ziyou was in a bad mood, Ren Xiaoxiao and Wu Xuefei did not dare to speak for fear of disturbing his thinking, so the car fell into silence and the atmosphere was somewhat depressed.
With Zhan Rong running desperately, Long Ziyou finally caught up with the plane at the last moment. Of course, before breaking up, he didn't forget to ask Zhan Rong to tell Mr. Zhan and Lao Suntou that he had gone back beforehand.
At three o'clock in the morning, the plane arrived at the provincial capital airport. After getting off the plane, I picked up the car that was stored in the airport parking lot. Longziyou also performed Need for Speed.
As soon as the phone was turned on, Long Ziyou received a call from Zhong Yumin, saying that the old man guarding him had been burned to death, which made his heart sink. Zhong Yumin also said that according to the on-site investigation and eyewitness accounts, it was initially determined that the cause of the fire was
Suspicious, this made him feel a little relieved.
At six o'clock in the morning, before dawn, Long Ziyou rushed to the scene of the fire - Ruyi Wood Processing Factory. Under the illumination of the scene lights, Long Ziyou saw that the iron factory building had collapsed, and the site was full of burnt charcoal or wood.
The wood that was not completely burned, and some even had residual smoke, was a complete mess.
Seeing Long Ziyou, Chen Haining and Wang Xin, who were in charge of directing the fire fighting at the scene, immediately reported the situation to him. From their reports, Long Ziyou learned that due to the Chinese New Year holiday, there was only one old man responsible for guarding the factory.
It is also a great blessing among misfortunes; in addition, according to on-site investigation, the fire started in more than one place, and nearby villagers who witnessed it also said that the fire was very large, and it did not look like an accident.
"Has Liang Ruyi, the proprietress of Ruyi Wood Processing Factory, arrived?" Long Ziyou asked after listening to the report.
"Here we are," Chen Haining nodded, "She also said that it was just an accident, and she was willing to pay compensation to Lao Zhang's family."
The police haven't come to a conclusion yet, so why did Liang Ruyi decide that the fire was an accident? Well, that's weird! Long Ziyou, a former police officer, immediately felt that the reaction of the proprietress Liang Ruyi was abnormal.
"Where's Liang Ruyi? I'll talk to her personally." Long Ziyou said again.
"She is already negotiating with the family members. She said that she can compensate the family members 200,000 yuan, but there is one condition, that is, no autopsy will be performed on Lao Zhang, and he will be cremated immediately after dawn. The matter ends here, don't bother anymore." Wang Xin stood aside.
replied.
"Absurd! The matter hasn't been investigated clearly yet. How could Liang Ruyi do this?" Long Ziyou said dissatisfied, "Director Wang, please call me Liang Ruyi."
A few minutes later, Wang Xin brought a coquettish and beautiful woman in her early thirties to Long Ziyou. She was Liang Ruyi, the proprietress of Ruyi Wood Processing Factory. Long Ziyou had met her several times and was impressed by this coquettish and beautiful woman.
Quite profound.
"Mayor Long, I failed to manage things in the factory well, which led to this tragic accident. Please criticize me severely!" Before Long Ziyou could speak, Liang Ruyi rushed to admit her mistake.
"Boss Liang, the police have not yet made a conclusion on the fire. We are not professionals, so it is better not to draw conclusions too early." Long Ziyou replied to Liang Ruyi softly but with a strong tone.
"What Mayor Long said is that I am too arbitrary," Liang Ruyi said with a smile of apology, "However, I have always been kind to others and seldom blushed with others, let alone enmity with others, so I shouldn't
There are enemies."
"Whether it was an accident or not, and whether you have any enemies, we'd better wait for the results of the police investigation to come out, so..." Long Ziyou changed his voice, "Boss Liang, you can stop negotiating with the family of the deceased, and wait until the police deal with this matter.
It won’t be too late to conduct an autopsy on the body.”
"But... Mayor Long, I have just reached an agreement with the family members. They said they would not pursue the case any further, and I do not plan to report the case. The people will not take action, and the officials will not pursue it. It is good for everyone that this matter is settled here, isn't it?
Mayor Long?" At the end of the sentence, Liang Ruyi's tone began to harden.
"Hmph, the murder case will be solved! Whether it's public opinion or not, it seems that Boss Liang doesn't know much about police work." Long Ziyou said with a serious look on his face.
"Mayor Long, then I'll wait for the police to come and investigate." Liang Ruyi crossed her arms and spoke in a very determined tone.
Just as Long Ziyou was about to speak, he was pulled aside by Wang Xin, who said softly: "Longzhen, just now, the county bureau's criminal police team withdrew, saying there was insufficient evidence and the person involved did not report the case, so the case could not be filed.
"
Seeing Long Ziyou frowning, Wang Xin looked around and whispered: "I asked a friend in the team privately and he said they received a call from Tao Mingshan, the deputy director in charge. Director Tao said
I said, 'There is no evidence and the person concerned will not report the case, so don't bother anymore'."
After hearing what Wang Xin said, Long Ziyou felt that the matter was even more complicated, which actually increased his determination to solve the case and get to the bottom of it!
"Director Wang, can this case be filed in your name?" Long Ziyou asked after pondering for a while.
"It's not impossible," Wang Xin hesitated for a while, "It's just that someone needs to report the case to the office. In addition... you may encounter pressure from above." The implication is that if the case is filed in the name of the office, it may not be investigated.
What comes out?
Of course, Long Ziyou heard the meaning of Wang Xin's words. He also felt that if the Lantian County police investigated, they might encounter interference from the forces behind them, so he thought for a while and then said: "In this case, then I
Let the Municipal Criminal Police Team investigate. Director Wang, please protect the scene. I will call the Municipal Criminal Police Team later."
"Okay, Mayor Long." Wang Xin nodded.
Long Ziyou called Chen Haining over again, "Mayor Haining, this is under the jurisdiction of Buzi Village. Is the village party secretary Lao Luo here?"
"I'm here, but I just accompanied Liang Ruyi to negotiate with the family of the deceased and didn't come back again," Chen Haining replied.
Seeing the displeasure on Long Ziyou's face, Chen Haining immediately said: "This old Luo, the matter is not over yet. Why did he leave first? I will call him right away."
A few minutes later, Luo Zhiquan, the village party secretary who received the call from Chen Haining, hurried over. At this time, it was already dawning. Seeing the displeasure on Long Ziyou's face, he quickly explained: "Mayor Long, I was
Went to comfort the family of the deceased."
"Zhishu Luo, now I am giving you a political task," Long Ziyou looked at Luo Zhiquan seriously, "Don't issue a death certificate to the family of the deceased for the time being. At the same time, you and several village cadres will guard the deceased's house. Don't let
They cremated the body secretly. I will ask Director Wang to bring a few policemen to cooperate with you on this matter, you know?"
"I know...I know." Under Long Ziyou's stern gaze, Luo Zhiquan nodded with a little panic, because he had already received Liang Ruyi's favor fee and helped Liang Ruyi reach an agreement with the family of the deceased. Moreover, the death certificate had just been issued by him.
It has already been driven out, so now his intestines are full of regret.
Long Ziyou called Zhong Yumin over again, whispered a few words in his ear, and then asked him to follow Luo Zhiquan with two policemen.
At this time, it was already broad daylight, and Long Ziyou didn't care about disturbing Hu Ling's dream, so he immediately dialed her mobile phone. The call rang for about half a minute before the call was finally connected.
"What time is it now? You are disturbing your dreams during the Chinese New Year, Long Ziyou, are you going too far?" Hu Ling's dissatisfied voice came from the microphone.
"Do you think I want to do such a disgusting thing? This is no longer a problem. I need your help if I need anything." Long Ziyou's tone was a little helpless, with a wry smile on his face, but Hu Ling on the other end of the phone looked at it.
