Chapter 857: Another Arson



Late that night, a major fire broke out at Mingzhong Biopharmaceutical Factory, the largest pharmaceutical factory in Tianjin.

All the buildings in the factory were burned down, even the warehouse was not spared. Fortunately, the fire broke out in the middle of the night and the workers escaped, so no casualties were caused.

According to workers at the scene, the fire broke out inexplicably.

The fire did not start slowly from a small fire, but it was a huge fire at the beginning. It first set a warehouse on fire, then the workshop, office area, and finally even the cafeteria was on fire.

The workers tried to save him but failed. According to rumors circulating among the workers, many people smelled gasoline...

Because Mingzhong Pharmaceutical Factory is located on the edge of the urban area, the fire directly illuminated half of the sky of Jinwei. Countless fire trucks rushed to the fire scene, and the whole night was filled with the sound of fire.

Shen Chengxing was awakened by the sound of sirens and heard people talking next to the hospital, saying that the pharmaceutical factories were on fire.

He was so frightened that he immediately went to his boss to report this latest discovery, but he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

It was almost dawn when Chen Xia came back from outside driving a Mercedes-Benz.

"Boss, boss, where have you been? I'm telling you, there was a big fire at Mingzhong Pharmaceutical Factory just now. It might be the Mingzhong Pharmaceutical Factory that counterfeited our drugs!"

Chen Xia yawned and replied listlessly:

"Oh~~~ I see. If there's a fire, then there's a fire. Maybe the boss wants to see a beautiful bonfire party. Okay, don't disturb me. I'm going to the hotel to get some sleep. You guys have to keep watch over Zhang Shu and the others."

A crow flew over Shen Chengxing's head. What a bonfire party! But he didn't dare to say anything more.

"Okay, okay, Boss, go and have some rest. Are you...really not going to check out the fire scene at Mingzhong Pharmaceutical Factory?"

As a veteran of reconnaissance, Shen Chengxing felt that the boss was very strange today, and he could smell a faint smell of gasoline from him.

Suddenly, a horrible thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that the fire was set by the boss?

When he thought of this, Shen Chengxing quickly slapped himself and warned himself not to make random guesses. How could one person do such a big fire?

Moreover, Mingzhong Pharmaceutical Factory had just broken the hands and feet of three employees of Nangua Teng. They must be on guard now. How could they easily allow someone to run into the factory and set fire?

Yes, this must have been an accident. God must have been unable to bear it and sent down the thunder as punishment!

Chen Xia didn't care how rich Chen Chengxing's inner drama was. He was really tired. Anyone else would be unable to bear it if they flew from Yuezhou to Jinwei in the afternoon and had to work hard in the second half of the night.

What's more, Chen Xia is already 29 years old.

"By the way, if anyone asks, just say we stayed in the hospital all night and I went to the hotel to rest in the early morning. Got it?"

"I understand, I understand. We have been guarding the patients in the hospital all the time..."

Chen Xia nodded with satisfaction, got into the car and drove towards the hotel not far away.

Shen Chengxing's mind was in a mess now. "Didn't we just arrive in Jinwei today? Where did the boss get this car from?"

However, for those who come from the army, obeying orders is their duty and they have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. It is impossible to get anything out of them without certain means. Chen Xia is very confident about this.

Besides, what did the fire tonight have to do with him? He just went out to find some pancakes for a midnight snack.

3 a.m., Beijing, Li Xiang’s home.

The phone rang like a death horn: "Ring~~Ring~~~Ring~~~~Ring~~~~~"

Li Xiang reached out his hand and answered the phone with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he sat up straight.

"What? Say it again..."

Then he slammed the phone, startling his wife who was sleeping next to him.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with you in the middle of the night?"

Li Xiang got up and quickly dressed while turning back to curse, "Sleep, sleep, sleep, I'll kill you if I don't. There was a fire at our pharmaceutical factory in Jinwei. I need to rush over."

"Ah! What should we do? We invested 50 million in this pharmaceutical factory. My dowry money has all been put into it. What should we do?"

Li Xiang was also anxious. The means he used to acquire this pharmaceutical factory were not glorious. In addition, some production lines were updated after the acquisition, and the total investment was more than 50 million yuan.

The key point is that he only holds half of the shares of this 50 million investment.

The costs have not been fully recovered yet, and the pharmaceutical factory has been burned down. This is a serious and devastating event.

When Li Xiang arrived at the Mingzhong Pharmaceutical Factory in Jinwei, the factory had become a ruin, with broken walls everywhere and not a single ghost left.

Li Xiang was completely dumbfounded.

Then came a fury: "Bai Laoshun, where the hell have you been? What the hell is going on?"

When the manager named Bai Laoshun saw the boss coming, he said with a sad face:

"Boss, it's none of my business. Everyone was off work at the factory. I heard the fire started in the warehouse area and then spread to the entire factory. You can see what happened."

Li Xiang's face turned pale as he continued to ask, "How did the fire start? Was it an accident or arson?"

Bai Laoshun was excited when he heard it:

"It was definitely arson. A worker smelled gasoline late at night, and then the fire started. It was so intense that even water couldn't put it out!"

When Li Xiang heard this, a fierce gleam flashed in his eyes: "Who is it? Have you caught him?"

Bai Laoshun became paralyzed when he heard this.

"No, we didn't catch anyone. This is just our guess. But boss, there's a situation. This afternoon, Lai Si and his men went to Dongcheng Hospital to cause trouble for those Yuezhou people. In the end, they came back injured and detained several people.

According to Lai Si, it seems that their boss came to Jinwei. Don’t you think this is too coincidental? The Yuezhou people just arrived in Jinwei, and our pharmaceutical factory caught fire..."

When the people around heard this, they all nodded. If you say this is a coincidence, isn’t it too much of a coincidence?

Moreover, Yuezhou has sufficient motives to commit the crime, so they are indeed the biggest suspects.

Li Xiang was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Go find out who the people from Yuezhou are? And what were they doing last night? Go quickly!"

"Hey, I'll be there right away. I'll be there right away."

Li Xiang was so angry that he gritted his teeth. If this was done by people from Yuezhou, he swore that he would never let them leave Jinwei.

If the Li family continues to be bullied in their home turf in the north and their factory is burned down, how will Li Xiang survive in the Beijing circle in the future?

This revenge must be avenged, and the people of Yuezhou must pay the price.

What was Chen Xia doing at this time? He was sleeping soundly in the guest room of Jinwei Hotel.

In his dream, he was playing with matches, and suddenly he accidentally set the house next door on fire...
