Chapter 403 Murder and Arson



At 10 p.m. that evening, Shen Dong and Qiu Defeng signed a share transfer agreement and an interest-free loan agreement.

With HK$300 million in funds, Asia Television was able to alleviate its immediate crisis.

Shen Dong acquired 25% of the shares, becoming the second-largest shareholder of Asia Television and finally gaining control of Hong Kong Island's most important propaganda channel.

At 2 a.m., a dark figure appeared at the entrance of Tengfei Garment Factory in Wong Tai Sin District.

If Shen Dong were here, he would definitely recognize that the dark figure as Aji, who disappeared after Wang Bao's death.

With the hood on, Aji took a step and easily scaled the three-meter-high wall, entering the garment factory silently like a raccoon dog.

Two security teams patrol the garment factory 24 hours a day.

The workshop was brightly lit, and many workers were working overtime to make clothes in order to earn more money.

Ah-Ji evaded the security guards' patrol and arrived at the warehouse where the clothes were stored.

At least 300,000 pieces of clothing have been stockpiled here and will be shipped inland for sale in a couple of days.

Aji took out a lighter from his pocket and set the clothes on fire in more than ten different places.

Who is it?

"Damn it, you dare to set fire to this place."

Seemingly sensing the flames, two security guards entered the warehouse and charged toward Aji, shouting.

"court death."

With a flash of light, the necks of the two security guards were severed, and blood gushed out.

Aji ran out of the warehouse without even looking.

Clothing is the most flammable material.

In less than three minutes, flames shot into the sky.

"Quickly, put out the fire!"

"Damn it, there's a fire in the warehouse."

The factory's security personnel and staff all rushed out to put out the fire.

While everyone's attention was focused on the warehouse, Aji went to the factory.

After pouring the two cans of gasoline he had just gotten from the convoy into the mixture, Aji threw the lighter out.

"What happened? How come the factory is on fire too?"

"Damn it, someone must have set it on fire."

"Security guards Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang fell to the ground. But the fire was too big, and we couldn't get in."

......

Despite numerous fire drills, they were still unable to stop the fire from spreading.

An hour later, when Shen Dong arrived at the garment factory, firefighters were putting out the fire.

Two workshops and a warehouse have been completely destroyed by fire.

Shen Dong frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

The person in charge, Zhou Tong, pursed his lips and said, "Boss, I think someone set the fire."

Arson?

Shen Dong's expression changed, and he stared intently at Zhou Tong, asking, "What evidence do you have?"

Zhou Tong swallowed hard, feeling immense pressure under Shen Dong's sharp gaze.

“Boss, I’ve already questioned them in detail. The fire started in the warehouse. While all the staff and security personnel were rushing to put out the fire, the fire broke out in the workshop. You know, that workshop is full of female workers, and no one smokes there. Even if someone did start it by smoking, the fire couldn’t have grown that big in five minutes.”

Shen Dong nodded and said, "Continue."

Zhou Tongdao said, "When the fire was being fought, the staff said that Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao were lying motionless in the warehouse. With such a big fire, if even one of them was breathing, it would be impossible for them not to feel anything. The only explanation is that they had already been killed."

Shen Dong asked, "Did you manage to retrieve the body?"

Zhou Tong looked bitter and said, "No."

Shen Dong asked, "Is there anything else?"

Zhou Tongdao said, "Also, the convoy discovered that two large barrels of gasoline were missing. I think these two barrels of gasoline were most likely poured inside the workshop by the arsonist; otherwise, there's really no way to explain this fire."

Shen Dong patted Zhou Tong on the shoulder and said, "Your reasoning is logically sound; the only problem is the lack of evidence. Did the surveillance cameras capture the other party's image?"

Zhou Tongdao said, "I'm investigating. President Shen, the incident at Tengfei Garment Factory is entirely my fault, and I'm willing to accept any punishment."

Shen Dong waved his hand and said, "If someone really deliberately set this fire, you couldn't have prevented it. The key now is to find the arsonist."

Zhou Tong gritted his teeth and said, "I must find him and tear him to pieces."

Shen Dong asked, "How are the resettlement expenses for the two brothers arranged?"

Zhou Tongdao said, "Their wives are all female workers in our garment factory, and each of them received a settlement allowance of HK$200,000."

At this point, Zhou Tong glanced at Shen Dong discreetly.

In other factories, a resettlement allowance of 100,000 yuan would be considered good.

Zhou Tong doubled their salary, and was very worried that Shen Dong would object.

“Two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars is not enough, let’s give them three hundred thousand. From now on, any of our employees who have an accident at work will receive a resettlement allowance of three hundred thousand. If they are disabled, the company will support them for life.”

Zhou Tong's eyes instantly reddened, and he said, "Thank you, President Shen. We are lucky to have a boss like you."

Just then, police officers from the Wong Tai Sin District Police Station arrived.

Shen Dong asked Zhou Tong to go and greet him, while he went to the monitoring room.

At this moment, four security personnel are watching the surveillance footage.

Upon seeing Shen Dong, the four immediately stood up and greeted him in unison, "Hello, President Shen."

Shen Dong pressed his right hand down and said, "Please sit down. Have you discovered anything?"

One of the security guards said, "The other party must have been a very skilled individual, as they didn't leave us with any footage. However, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao ran into the warehouse but never came out. The fire was very small at the time; it was impossible to spot unless you were very close."
