"I can't even knock on my sister-in-law's door!"
Lu Guoqing and his mother exchanged glances quickly, and both of them had a bad feeling in their hearts.
Especially Mrs. Lu, she always had a bad feeling.
This moment seemed to confirm the uneasiness in her heart.
"Guoqing, what should we do? Could it be that the person who burned to death tonight is..."
Old Mrs. Lu held her son Lu Guoqing's hand tightly, fearing that Lu Hongxing, Lin Qingzhi and Lin Wan would be the ones to die!
"I'm going to find an axe to chop wood. Mom, go call for help now."
Old Mrs. Lu nodded and began to cry at the top of her lungs in the courtyard.
While crying and shouting, she knocked on other people's doors in the compound.
The flames crackled and burned, engulfing everything mercilessly.
After Lu Guoqing picked up the axe and chopped open the door of Lin Qingzhi's house, he saw two unconscious people in the house.
"Sister-in-law, wake up!
Lin Wan, wake up! "
Lu Guoqing patted the two of them on the face, and seeing that they showed no sign of waking up, he had no choice but to carry them out first.
After all, the fire had spread into the house.
Just as Lu Guoqing rescued the two people, someone rushed over from the slum.
"How did this catch fire?"
Some people screamed, some started to fetch water to put out the fire, and some even picked up brooms to put out the fire.
The door of Lu Hongxing's room was soon broken open, and Lu Hongxing, who was sleeping like a dead pig, was dragged out.
As for Lu Chaoyang and Lu Yao's room, no one dared to rescue them.
The fire was so big that no matter how much water they poured, it didn't get any smaller.
Not only that, the fire began to spread to the surrounding rooms, making everyone in the compound worried.
They were afraid that the fire would burn their house.
"With such a big fire, Chaoyang and Meixiang won't have been..." The person who spoke paused and his face turned pale.
"And those two guys, Lu Yao and Lu Jun. Lu Jun just came back yesterday, and today..."
"Lu Guoqing, you didn't set the fire, did you?" Bai Liyun suddenly asked.
When she said this, everyone present was shocked.
Some were in disbelief, some were thoughtful, and some even agreed.
"Yeah, how could it be such a coincidence? The only rooms with the biggest fires were Chaoyang girl and Lu Yao boy's room."
"And the fire was very strange. No matter how much water was poured on it, the flames didn't get any smaller."
"Could there be oil spilled in those two rooms?"
The voices of the crowd disappeared in an instant, and everyone looked at the man who spoke.
The man was a little panicked by being looked at, "Something that has been spilled with oil is not easy to be extinguished by water."
Not only is it not easy to be extinguished, it may even burn more vigorously.
"Lu Guoqing, you wanted to kill Chaoyang yesterday. No, you really didn't do it, did you?"
Some people have begun to believe that the fire was set by Lu Guoqing.
Because he has the motive and is cruel enough.
"Lu Guoqing, you are really cruel, aren't you? I'm sure Meixiang and those three poor children are already..."
The people in the compound looked at Lu Guoqing with wariness.
If Lu Guoqing dares to blatantly kill his wife and children today, he will dare to take the lives of all of them one day!
After all, he doesn't take human life seriously.
“I didn’t, this is all just your guess!
Meixiang is my wife, and Chaoyang, Ayao and Ajun are all my children. How could I do such a cruel thing?
If I really did it, wouldn't that be worse than an animal? "
Lu Guoqing had a tough look on his face, as if he had been framed and wronged.
"Yes, how could my son do something worse than an animal?
He lost his wife and his son, I wonder how sad he must be right now.
Can you all stop stabbing my son in the back?
My three Guoqing children, all of them... died!"
Old Mrs. Lu covered her face and cried bitterly. She was really crying. The people watching looked at each other in bewilderment.
At this moment, Lu Guoqing seemed to have completely lost his temper. He sat down on the ground dejectedly, his eyes red, and he covered his face with his hands and cried bitterly.
The crying was so loud that everyone who heard it felt upset.
Some people have even begun to doubt whether they guessed wrong?
After all, they all witnessed how good Lu Guoqing was to his wife and children in the past, but too many things had happened in the Lu family recently.
Each one is more shocking and surprising than the last.
"National Day, you, don't be too sad."
Yes, losing one’s wife and children would make anyone feel hopeless, right?
After all, I was alone all of a sudden.
If I don't have children in the future...
"National Day, maybe, maybe Meixiang and the three children can still be saved!"
"Yes, everyone, please make a little more effort and put out this fire!"
"If this fire is not put out, it will eventually burn our own home."
In an instant, everyone began to put out the fire, determined to put it out.
How could a house that was just splashed with oil be easily extinguished by water?
The longer the time went on, the more complicated the mood of the people in the compound became.
This...is this really not arson?
If not, why is the fire so difficult to extinguish?
If so, who set the fire?
Zhao Meixiang and her three children all died. Who benefited the most?
One thought after another flashed through the minds of everyone in the compound, and they looked at the other members of the Lu family calmly.
Lu Guoqing and Old Lady Lu were still covering their faces and crying, as if they were trapped in endless sorrow.
After waking up, sisters Lin Qingzhi and Lin Wan joined in the fire-fighting effort very actively.
As for Lu Hongxing, he was the last one to wake up. As soon as he woke up, he found that his face was burned and he was rolling on the ground, screaming in pain.
Because the Lu family’s house was on fire, people from the entire street came out, fearing that the fire would spread to their house.
So even though the house was poured with diesel, the fire was still put out by everyone using buckets and basins of water.
After the fire was extinguished, everyone looked towards the burned-out houses. Someone exclaimed, "There are no bodies! There are no bodies in either of these houses!"
One word can cause a thousand ripples.
"Meixiang, where are Meixiang and the three children?"
"What, there is no body in the room?" Old Mrs. Lu was wiping her tears one second ago, and the next second she had pushed through the crowd and rushed to the door of Lu Chaoyang and Lu Yao's room.
Everything in the house had been burned clean, and some of the walls had even collapsed, but...
No bodies were in plain sight.
"Where did they all go?
Why aren't you in the room?
They weren't in the room, and the fire..."
Old Lady Lu's voice suddenly stopped, and everyone's eyes fell on her.
There is exploration, questioning, and more of curiosity.
"Mei Xiang, Mei Xiang...
Chaoyang, Ayao, Ajun...where are you?"
There was suddenly hope on Lu Guoqing's pale and decadent face, which made everyone more confused.
Does this matter have anything to do with the Lu family?
They were all extremely curious.
