Chapter 118: Guanyin Pavilion

Views:

Zhang Xiaowen went to work in the Criminal Police Team as usual. Since Cao Bin's accident, the Office of the Criminal Police Team seems to have become a lot depressive. Every time Zhang Xiaowen sees the empty space in front of Cao Bin’s desk, there is always an unspeakable feeling of sorrow in his heart. It is this feeling of stubbornness that reminds Zhang Xiaowen to keep getting stronger and one day. Take revenge on Cao Bin with Li Jing!

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaowen sat down in his chair, recalling the situation of practicing the Shenxuan Sutra yesterday. Every time he recites the mantras of the Profound Sutra, Zhang Xiaowen will enter a state of selflessness, and his brain will rotate rapidly, and then his senses will become more and more sensitive, without having to use his eyes to feel the surrounding situation. Although this state had appeared before, it was obviously different this time. Not only did I feel the things around me, but also vaguely seemed to have some connection with the things around me.

"In the early morning, what are you thinking about?" Mei Yan also came to the office sometime. Seeing Zhang Xiaowen sitting in a daze, she asked him curiously.

Zhang Xiaowen smiled to Mei Yan: "I wonder why you are beautiful again today!" Since Cao Bin left, Mei Yan has been sad for a long time, and only recently has slowly walked out of the past. Zhang Xiaowen doesn't want Mei Yan Thinking of unhappy things, she always teases Mei Yan.

Mei Yan politely smiled at Zhang Xiaowen, and then sat in her seat.

At this moment, Zhang Zhanjin hurriedly walked in, scanned around and said, "Why are you two? Do you know? Another big event happened in our county last night!"

Zhang Xiaowen and Mei Yan raised their heads and looked at Zhang Zhanjin at the same time, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"The Great Pavilion in our county, the Guanyin Pavilion, caught fire last night!"

When the two heard Zhang Zhanjin's words, they stood up at the same time. Mei Yan couldn't wait to ask: "How about? Aren't they all burned?"

Zhang Zhanjin curled his lips and nodded. The two people who got the answer had mixed feelings, and Zhang Xiaowen directly sat down on the chair.

The Guanyin Pavilion, commonly known as the Great Pavilion, was built in the Yuan Dynasty and is a provincial cultural relic. The whole building has three floors. Except for the four stone pillars, the rest are made of wood, without a brick and a nail. Legend has it that when it was built, the Yellow River could be seen from the top floor, which was once a landmark building in BA County. According to legend, Qinghua City, the county seat of BA County, is in the shape of a scorpion, and Guanyin Pavilion is the head of the scorpion. At the top of the Guanyin Pavilion, a scorpion's natural enemy-the iron rooster, is the feng shui eye of the entire Qinghua City!

Zhang Xiaowen read the introduction to Guanyin Pavilion on the Internet, and the more he thinks about it, the more he feels a pity. How can an ancient building be burned when it is said to be burned

Other colleagues in the office are also discussing the burning of Guanyin Pavilion. This three-story building has witnessed the history of Thanh Hoa City for hundreds of years. Although they don’t pay much attention to it, they suddenly disappeared. It's a bit unacceptable.

Just when everyone was discussing, Zhang Jianjun pushed the door and walked in. Everyone hurriedly tightened their chatterboxes and all sat back in their positions. Zhang Jianjun looked around for a week, and finally said: "Lao Liang, Zhanjin, Xiaowen, come with me!"

"Where?" Zhang Zhanjin asked Zhang Jianjun as he got up.

"Go to Guanyin Pavilion! Just received news from the fire officers and soldiers that the Guanyin Pavilion caught fire this time and there are traces of man-made! Moreover, the iron rooster on the top floor of the Guanyin Pavilion is gone!" Zhang Jianjun finished speaking and went out!

The three hurriedly packed up and followed, and the office exploded again!

When I drove to the Guanyin Pavilion, there were a lot of people watching the excitement. Four people squeezed in, and a colleague from the police station immediately greeted him: "Hello everyone, this is Xiao Li from the Qinghua Police Station, let me introduce you to this case!" Zhang Jianjun shook hands with Xiao Li, together Walked into the burnt ruins.

"This is the original site of Guanyin Pavilion. The fire time should be between 3 am and 4 am today. Due to the strong wind, several families in the east were also affected a bit. So the first person to find the fire was the east side of Guanyin Pavilion. The head of the household was Ge Qianshun. According to him, he felt warmer and hotter when he was sleeping, and then he woke up from the heat. Then he found that the entire Guanyin Pavilion was alive. It was already 4 o'clock at the time. , And then he woke up the neighbors in the neighborhood and called the police, but within a few minutes, the Guanyin Pavilion collapsed."

When Zhang Xiaowen heard this, he measured his steps and walked towards the east wall of the house. There are only 18 steps from the Guanyin Pavilion to the wall of this family. If one step is one meter, it is about 18 meters. After the measurement, Zhang Xiaowen asked again: "Isn't it said that someone was arson?"

Xiao Li nodded: "Yes, when the fire brigade arrived and put out the fire, they surveyed the scene and found oil stains on a piece of unburnt wood. And the uncle of the Guanyin Pavilion said that these pieces of wood are all It has been specially processed, and it is generally impossible to click on it."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianjun immediately asked: "Where is the guard?"

"In the shop selling sesame cakes over there, I specifically explained that I didn't let him go!" Xiao Li was fortunate that he made the right decision.

So the group went to the biscuits shop and found the uncle who was guarding the door. After Zhang Jianjun showed his credentials, he asked him: "How many years have you been here to guard the door?"

"I've been here to watch the door since I retired. It should have been 15 or 6 years." The uncle said

"Are you sleeping here at night?"

"No, there are no beds here, I will go home at night!"

"Then what time did you leave the Guanyin Pavilion last night?"

"It's past 7 o'clock in the evening, and I haven't remembered the exact time. Comrade police, you don't doubt me?"

Zhang Jianjun hurriedly shook his head: "Don't get me wrong, I just want to know if you might see any suspicious people! If you leave after 7 o'clock, the fire will start after 3 o'clock in the morning the next day, so I guess you too Can't see any suspicious people?"

The uncle nodded: "I really haven't seen any suspicious people. The people who come to the Great Pavilion are basically familiar faces. I locked the door when I left! And the wood is all old wood. A pilgrim accidentally used to The curtains were drawn, and the fire of the boss did not ignite the wood, so this time someone must be thinking about the iron cock, and was afraid of leaving evidence, and burned the big pavilion. It's a real crime!"

After asking the uncle, Zhang Jianjun immediately gave instructions: "Zhanjin, Xiaowen, you go to the nearby surveillance, find out if there is any suspicious person approaching Guanyin Pavilion between 7pm and 3am. To burn such a big house. , You must bring a lot of oil, so you pay more attention to those who bring things. Lao Liang, let's go around and visit again!"

Everyone was instructed to leave the biscuits shop. At the moment of leaving, Zhang Xiaowen's Yu Guang suddenly noticed that the uncle who was guarding the door took a breath, and wondered: Is this uncle lying? (End of this chapter)
