The next morning, the fire investigation department's laboratory came out with results. The piece of molten glass that Gong Yingxian picked up at the scene, as he speculated, came from an alcohol lamp.
Ren Yi asked Qiu Wen to send a copy of the report to Hongwu Branch, and then sent a message to inform Gong Yingxian of the inspection results.
With such conclusive evidence, the case can basically be closed, and it has only been four days since the publication. With such efficiency, it should be possible to explain to the leaders and the public.
Ren Yi thought this matter was over, but at dusk, he received another call from Gong Yingxian.
"Have you received the inspection report?"
"Got it, I want to confirm something with you." Gong Yingxian said.
"what?"
"From the time you received the call and the police, to the scene, to opening the door of the emergency exit, to the fire being extinguished, these are the exact time points."
"I haven't finished writing the report yet. I can send it to you first. There are detailed records in it. What's wrong?"
"The circumstances of the case may change."
Ren Yi sat up straight: "What change? Can't the case be closed?"
"Cai Wan admitted to smoking and taking drugs, and admitted that the alcohol lamp ignited the sofa, but she said that there were other people in the box, a strange man, and she was in a daze, and she couldn't remember the other person's appearance. She said that the person smashed the alcohol on purpose. Deng, she didn't dare to say it because she was afraid of being found taking drugs."
Ren Yi was silent for a while: "Do you believe what a person who smokes harmony drugs said? Her words have changed several times."
"Everyone who smokes and takes drugs is a fraudulent personality. I will not fully believe her words, but there is one thing that is suspicious. The mouth of the bottle of the alcohol lamp has a sealed design. If it is just poured, the cotton wick will leak, but it is very easy. It is difficult to cause large-scale leakage all at once, and the bottle body is generally relatively thick. How high is the coffee table or sofa from the ground? About 40 cm, I bought seven different alcohol lamps and tried them. One of the worst quality was broken, and the one I picked up was thicker."
"It takes a lot of accelerant to cause such a rapid, momentarily inextinguishable combustion. You mean, someone might have smashed the bottle with force."
"Cai Wan said the same thing. Of course, this doesn't rule out the possibility of her being broken, but I need more evidence to prove it." Gong Yingxian paused, "Or deny it."
"How do you want to prove it?"
"I want to return to the scene at the time of the crime to see if there are any new clues."
"Going at night? The light is not good."
"Restoring the scene as much as possible helps to think from the perpetrator's point of view."
Ren Yi scratched his hair: "Okay."
----
After one o'clock in the evening, the two came to the fourth perspective again.
Such a big accident happened here just a few days ago, and the business was naturally affected. At this time, the whole street was quite cold, and it was no longer the bustling scene it used to be.
When he arrived at the scene, Gong Yingxian didn't go in in a hurry, but walked around the street twice, taking all the roads that must be passed on the east and west sides leading to the fourth perspective.
Ren Yi followed him on the road, smelling the scent wafting from the restaurant, his tongue was saliva, and his stomach twitched unbearably.
It wasn't until one o'clock in the middle of the night, about the time before the fire broke out, that the two stepped over the seal and came to the ruins.
Gong Yingxian took a deep breath, put on the mask, and turned on the flashlight.
"Wait a minute." Ren Yi looked at him, "You won't vomit anymore, will you?"
Gong Yingxian said: "There is no guarantee."
"This place is just a little dirty, and you vomited. Have you seen a psychiatrist?" Ren Yi shrugged, "If this is the case, why make things difficult for yourself."
Gong Yingxian said coldly: "If you talk less nonsense, we can end sooner, maybe I won't spit on you." After speaking, he strode in.
Ren Yi rolled his eyes at him and followed him in.
This place is not much different from the previous two days, except that the sightlines are poor at night, and they must always pay attention to their feet, otherwise they will easily trip over various things.
The two groped their way up the stairs. Gong Yingxian checked the other boxes and murmured: "The door of the box is closed, so you can't see what's inside from the outside. If what Cai Wan said is true, there are so many boxes here. , why did that person enter theirs, and why did he set fire to it?"
"I still think she is lying. The person she said may not exist at all, or it may be someone she knows, and she is covering up." Ren Yi "tsk", "She is the only one alive, and there is really no proof. "
Gong Yingxian was noncommittal, and walked to the second floor while watching.
Ren Yi suddenly thought of something: "Hey, do you think, does the bar owner know that someone is taking harmony drugs in his bar?"
"This is a very good question." Gong Yingxian said, "My colleagues are investigating."
"Such a young girl only touches drugs and drugs." Ren Yi said with emotion.
"Too much. Cai Wan said that she hadn't used it a few times. This synthetic drug-like compound is very harmful to the nerves. Maybe her confusion is not all due to lying."
"By the way, are you really a doctor of chemistry?"
"Ok."
"Then you can synthesize it by yourself just like on TV...you understand."
"Just a simple chemical manipulation."
Suddenly, there was a slight creaking sound from behind the two of them, and they all turned their heads, only to see a black shadow flash past behind them.
In the middle of the night, seeing such a swaying shadow in a building where nearly thirty people died and was burnt beyond recognition, Ren Yi felt goose bumps and stood up.
"Who is it!" Gong Yingxian roared, and chased after him like an arrow.
Ren Yi also hurriedly followed.
The figure ran across the long corridor and rushed towards the stairs.
After Ren Yi confirmed that it was a living person, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not slack off for a moment. The common feature of arsonists is that they like to return to the scene and relive their "masterpieces" over and over again. This person is likely...
Suddenly, Gong Yingxian, who was running ahead, tripped over something and fell forward. Ren Yi couldn't stop and bumped into him, and the two of them rolled into a ball in the messy ruins.
Ren Yi felt something hit his ribs, and his foot was twisted. He cried out in pain, and at the same time, Gong Yingxian's gasping sound came from his ear.
The smell of Gong Yingxian rushed into Ren Yi's nostrils. It turned out that the faint, dry and textured herbal smell was not only in Gong Yingxian's car, but also on his body...
Gong Yingxian pushed Ren Yi aside, jumped up from the ground, and said sharply, "Stop!"
When Ren Yi looked up, he saw that the person they were chasing had already descended the stairs.
Gong Yingxian threw away the flashlight, and the moment the flashlight landed, the light was shining upwards, and at some point there was already an extra gun in his hand, which flashed past Ren Yi's sight.
Gong Yingxian paused for a moment, and in less than a second, he ran towards the direction completely opposite to the stairs.
After Ren Yi realized what he was going to do, he shouted, "No!"
Gong Yingxian jumped out of the window on the second floor.
Ren Yi got up from the ground, endured the pain in his ankle, and ran downstairs.
I saw Gong Yingxian chasing a small man for more than a hundred meters, and then pushed the man to the ground, only to hear the man yell "Let me go".
Ren Yi ran over and shouted, "Do you know how dangerous it is to jump out of a window? You fucking think you're making a movie!"
Gong Yingxian turned a deaf ear, took out the car keys from his pocket and threw them to Ren Yi: "There are handcuffs in the co-pilot drawer."
Ren Yi glared at Gong Yingxian angrily.
Gong Yingxian clasped the man's wrists with one hand, and pressed his knees on his back: "Go."
Ren Yi turned around and went to Gong Yingxian's car, and threw the handcuffs to him, and he handcuffed the man to the railing neatly.
"Why do you catch me and let me go!" the man yelled in horror.
Ren Yi squatted down and took a closer look. He was a young man in his twenties, thin and short, with pale skin, and looked malnourished.
Gong Yingxian said coldly: "Who are you, why did you appear here in the middle of the night?"
"I-I'm curious, why don't you come and see? Why did you arrest me? What law did I break!"
Ren Yi glanced at the backpack on his back and pulled it over.
"What are you doing, don't touch my things! I, I have the right to privacy!"
Ren Yi successively took out a laptop, a gimbal camera, a helmet with night vision lights, and some miscellaneous things from it. Turning on the camera, there are many photos and videos from the fourth perspective. His chest was heaving, and he grabbed the back of the man's neck and said viciously: "Did you set the fire? Ah? Do you know how many people died? Beast !"
"No, I didn't! I didn't set fire!"
Gong Yingxian called and asked the police and a car to come over.
Ren Yi glanced at Gong Yingxian, and saw that his suit was completely ruined, and he was not much better, as if he had bathed in a pile of soot, it was terribly dirty. As a normal person, I can't stand such a dirty look, Gong Yingxian...
Gong Yingxian's limbs were stiff, his face was gloomy, and he looked like he didn't know how to deal with himself. For a cleanliness patient, it must be extremely uncomfortable to be like this all over his body.
Suddenly, Ren Yi found blood on the ground. Startled, he turned around Gong Yingxian.
"what are you doing… "
Ren Yi grabbed Gong Yingxian's arm, looked at the long bloodstain on his forearm, and gasped.
Gong Yingxian withdrew her hand: "Don't touch me casually."
Ren Yi was too lazy to argue with him at this time: "Go to the hospital."
"No, I'll handle it myself."
"You need stitches at least for this injury."
"I said, I will handle it myself."
"What the hell do you do? Huh?" Ren Yi was angry from his heart, "Are you crazy? I jumped from the second floor. When putting out the fire a few days ago, a soldier jumped from the same window and broke his leg. He is Forced."
"Only more than three meters."
"Do you think more than three meters is not high enough?" Ren Yi gritted his teeth, "In the early fire brigades, there was a pole strung from the upstairs to the garage. It slipped down, and then it was cancelled, because every year people get injured, most of them are sprains and other small problems, but there are also concussions, and some broke their legs, and even some people can't walk in this life, you never know Which action you didn’t do right when you landed, you never know if it’s bad luck for you today, you never know when your destiny will come, so an adult must be responsible for his own safety!”
Gong Yingxian looked at Ren Yi's stern expression, and was momentarily overwhelmed by the momentum, his Adam's apple slipped, and he came back to his senses: "I am the police and the police."
"I'm a firefighter." Ren Yi pointed at Gong Yingxian's chest, "You don't know how many accidents I've seen in my life, how many accidents where just a small mistake caused extremely terrible consequences."
The two stared at each other, neither letting the other go.
Just at the right time, the police siren sounded, and a police car stopped in front of the two of them.
Two patrolling police officers got out of the car with the police: "Dr. Gong."
Gong Yingxian said: "He is a suspect in the bar fire case, take him back to the branch office, and I will interrogate him later."
"it is good."
After the person was taken away, Gong Yingxian walked to his car, opened the trunk, and took out a brand new suit from inside.
He tore off his tie and unbuttoned his shirt one by one. Ren Yi followed and continued to stare at him.
"Do you want to watch me undress?" Gong Yingxian said coldly.
Ren Yi came back to his senses and saw the looming chest muscles from the open front. He suddenly felt his cheeks heat up and cursed: "Who the hell wants to see you take off your clothes? I want to see you go to the hospital immediately to treat the wound." .”
"I said, I will handle it myself." Gong Yingxian said stubbornly, "I won't go to the hospital."
"Either go to the hospital now, or deal with it for me, or I'll call Captain Song immediately!"
Gong Yingxian tore open his shirt, and the buttons fell to the ground. The action was so big that it showed his anger.
When Gong Yingxian was wearing the clothes, she looked thin, but after taking them off, she had broad shoulders and a thin waist with thick pectoral muscles, stronger than Ren Yi, and the full pectoralis major was like a small brick Seeing the abdominal muscles made Ren Yi's eyes straighten.
Generally speaking, Gong Yingxian is not the type that Ren Yi likes, but with such a figure and such a face, he is really a stunner in the world.
Ren Yi's eyes didn't know where to put them for a moment, it seemed inappropriate to look at them, and it seemed a pity not to look at them.
"Still turning around?" Gong Yingxian said angrily.
"... hypocritical." Ren Yi curled his lips and turned around.
Gong Yingxian put on a new shirt, looked around for no one, and changed his pants. He stuffed the dirty clothes into the trash can, and then looked up and down the dirty Ren Yi.
Ren Yi came back to his senses: "Don't think I'm scaring me, I'll call Captain Song right now."
"boarding."
"Ok?"
Gong Yingxian took out a few disposable tablecloths from the incubator and threw them to Ren Yi: "Put it on the seat, don't touch it anywhere."
"Can you fucking understand human language? I'm asking you to deal with the wound."
"Get in the car, I'll let you watch me treat the wound right now."
Ren Yi hesitated for a moment, and walked towards the co-pilot.
After Gong Yingxian got into the car, he stared at Ren Yi as he covered the seat and backrest with the tablecloth, and after he sat down, he went to close the car door.
"Don't touch it." Gong Yingxian stopped him, supported Ren Yi's chair with one hand, leaned over the operating lever, pulled the door handle, closed the car, and then went to pull Ren Yi's seat belt.
Ren Yi's back was pressed against the seat, and he didn't dare to move at all. Gong Yingxian's unique smell was always wafting from the tip of his nose. The distance between the two of them was so close that they could even feel the warmth of each other's body. Seeing Gong Yingxian's perfect side face dangling in front of him, he couldn't help swallowing.
Gong Yingxian fastened Ren Yi's seat belt and started the car.
After a long while, Ren Yi regained his composure: "Where are you going?"
"my home."
