Chapter 297 Fire at Leigongling

In China, when Meng Xiaobei took the company's employees out for team building, Shitou was not idle. He would go to Tianxiang Garden whenever he had time after work. Liu Yuxin always found various reasons to follow him to study.

.

On this day, Shi Shi had just finished what he was doing, sat down to rest for a while, and stared at the TV in the restaurant casually.

"What are you looking at?" Liu Yuxin took off her apron, packed up the things in the kitchen, rubbed her hands and walked to Shitou.

The voice on the TV came: "The injured person who was burned has been sent to the Sixth People's Hospital. No one else was found at the scene..."

Liu Yuxin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the TV. The fire last night?

"Look, have you sent your sister to the hospital?" Shitou suddenly turned around and asked Liu Yuxin, "You seem to have said that your sister is a nurse at the Sixth People's Hospital?"

"Yes, my sister is a nurse," Liu Yuxin was stunned by Shi Shi's reaction, "What's wrong?"

"Leigongling, right at Leigongling." Shitou stared at her, his lips turning white.

"The fire is in Leigongling?" Liu Yuxin was stunned for a moment, then turned to stare at the TV again.

"The private building in Leigongling, on the other side of the big slope, there is a large old house behind the slope that no one lives in," Shitou murmured with a trembling voice, "It's Uncle Qiu! Something happened to them! Who could have set the fire?"

"

"Don't worry, I'll watch the news." Liu Yuxin patted his arm, guessing that the person in his mouth must have some relationship with him. During this time together, she learned more or less about Shi Shi's past.

.

"I've already seen it!" Shitou roared.

The news was so shocking that he couldn't help shouting: "I saw it! Leigong Ridge! On the edge of the big slope! That's Uncle Qiu's home! Such a big fire!"

Liu Yuxin was startled by his roar, and quickly reached out to hold him down, patting him on the back: "Okay, okay, I understand, don't worry."

"Only one person is burned," Shitou continued to mutter to himself, "There is only one person, which one is burned?"

Is it Uncle Qiu or Sledgehammer?

Or Liao San?

Or his younger brother?

Sent to hospital?

Is that hospital your sister’s place..."

"I know, I know," Liu Yuxin patted his back hard, "I'll call my sister right away. If she's not in their hospital, I'll help you find out which hospital she is in. Don't worry,

I will help you find out, and I will definitely find out for you, I promise."

There is no more information in the news. I only know that the fire was quite big and burned three old buildings in a row. However, because they were all unoccupied old buildings, it did not cause much damage and there were no more casualties.

.

However, the news did not say who the injured person was or whether he was the one who set the fire. They only said that they would continue to follow up.

It took Shitou a long time to digest such earth-shattering news. After calming down, he sent the news to his only two friends, Meng Xiaobei and Xiaohua.

Meng Xiaobei was far away in New Zealand, but she quickly replied to his message, but there was no movement from Xiaohua, and no one answered the call. Shitou couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Xiaohua and her mother. Could it be Xiaohua who set the fire? Thinking of this, Shi Shi's spine felt chilly.

Impossible. Shitou quickly rejected this hypothesis. Where did Xiaohua get such boldness?

If he had heard such news a few months ago, he would have made a desperate trip to Leigong Ridge, just like he did when he sneaked back.

But today he didn't. He felt panicked and scared, but he had no intention of going to see it.

Meng Xiaobei immediately sent him a message back, telling him not to go back without permission. He hadn't figured out what was going on yet. If he went back rashly, he would most likely be arrested. Whether it was the police or Uncle Qiu's gangsters, they would treat him as arsonist.

suspect.

At this time, he can't swim in this muddy water.

Apart from the fact that he didn't dare to approach Leigong Ridge rashly, he knew that the matter this time was not trivial. If it was really related to Xiaohua and her mother, he would definitely get into trouble if he went there, and he wouldn't be able to help Xiaohua at all.

Shitou sat at the table and ate the dinner brought out by Liu Yuxin from the kitchen, without talking or watching TV.

Liu Yuxin felt that Shitou's cooking this time was pretty good, but after this incident, she lost her appetite and couldn't taste the food. After just two bites, she couldn't finish it.

"I'll give it to you," Liu Yuxin stood up, "I'll give it to you..."

"No," Shi Shitou had eaten a lot. He wiped his mouth and quickly put away the tableware, "If you don't want to come along, I'll wait for the bus at the door."

Liu Yuxin looked at him and said nothing else. Tianxiangyuan was located in a remote area, so she borrowed her sister's car in order to learn from Shitou.

Liu Yuxin drove Shitou to the bus stop. When Shitou got off the bus, Liu Yuxin pulled his arm: "Tou Shi."

"Huh?" Shitou turned around.

"Wait for my call and don't run around." Liu Yuxin said.

"Well," Shitou nodded, "Don't worry, I won't mess around."

"Go." Liu Yuxin smiled.

Shitou walked to the platform. Liu Yuxin's car stopped for a while before slowly driving away. He sighed softly and leaned against the billboard.

Although he was a little helpless, the only thing he could do was wait for Liu Yuxin's call.

After returning to the supermarket, he tossed and turned all night and did not sleep well.

He didn't close his eyes until the next morning, so he simply got up early and opened the store door.

Gu Daquan was the first to arrive with the small battery on.

"Morning!" Gu Daquan waved to him.

"Morning." Shitou smiled.

Liu Yuxin didn't come to ask for leave today, so Shitou probably knew what she was doing.

So he and Gu Daquan finished sweeping the floor at the door.

Su Lifang and other colleagues at the cashier arrived, greeted them and went in to change clothes.

There were not many customers in the morning, so Su Lifang leaned against the counter and chatted with Gu Daquan: "You can see the fire from my house, and it took a long time to put it out."

"Fortunately, there was no one in that house," Su Lifang said. "First a fire broke out in one room, and then it spread all over. Fortunately, no one was asleep at that time and they all ran out to put out the fire."

"Are you talking about the fire last night?" Shitou was about to mop the floor, but stopped when he heard what they said.

Su Lifang's family does not live in Leigongling, but it is very close in that direction. She can always know what happens there immediately.

"Well, you know that, right?" Su Lifang said, "It's really scary. I heard that the police were called afterward. I was surprised. Do the police still have to go to the fire?"

"Police?" Shitou was stunned.

"Well," Su Lifang nodded, "I also heard people talking about it when I was having breakfast this morning. I wonder if it's too angry and requires police support?"

Shitou said nothing, his heart sank all the way.
