Jiang Feng had dinner with his wife at the confinement center, and took a walk with his son in his arms for a while. Then he heard the staff at the confinement center discussing the fire at Minghu Hotel.
In this era of well-developed media, everyone is a photographer, so a major event like the fire at Minghu Hotel was naturally filmed by many eyewitnesses and uploaded to their Moments.
Through the spread of the circle of friends, it quickly spread throughout Nanning.
Fires, even if they occur in ordinary houses, will attract public attention as long as the fire is large. As Minghu Hotel is a long-established four-star hotel in Nanning, it is normal for the sudden fire at the hotel to attract public attention.
After all, this was a client's hotel. After hearing the news, Jiang Feng took his son back and handed him to the confinement nanny, then took out his cell phone and called Su Yao.
"Master Jiang!" The phone was connected, and Su Yao's slightly tired voice came over.
Jiang Feng asked: "Boss Su, I just heard people talking about a fire in your hotel. What's going on? Are there any casualties?"
Su Yao said: "Thank you Master Jiang for your concern. No one was injured or killed. The cause of the fire has been preliminarily investigated. It was caused by the power lines, but this was not an accident. It was man-made. The details are still under investigation."
"It's good that no one was injured."
At this point, Jiang Feng asked: "Boss Su, have you offended anyone recently? If you have a suspect, tell me his (her) name and mobile phone number, and I will help you figure it out and see if I can find this bastard.
Deliberately setting fire to a hotel is playing with other people's lives!"
Su Yao shook her head and said, "Master Jiang, I have thought about it carefully before. I haven't offended anyone in the past two years, so I can't figure out who wants to harm me for the time being."
"Has the hotel's surveillance been sabotaged?"
"Yes, after putting out the fire, the police immediately checked the surveillance and found that the surveillance had been damaged and the hard drive had been smashed!"
Jiang Feng said: "It seems that this matter is related to the internal staff of your hotel. Have you checked the employees after the incident? Have you found any suspicious people?"
Su Yao said: "We also have this suspicion, but after a preliminary investigation, we found that no employee was suspected. It's really puzzling."
Jiang Feng thought for a moment and asked, "Boss Su, are all your hotel employees still in the hotel now?"
Su Yao responded: "Well, they are all here. They are indispensable for the aftermath."
Jiang Feng said: "Then I will rush over to help you check it out."
As an old customer, Su Yao was naturally aware of Master Jiang's attainments in the field of "divine calculations". With Master Jiang's help in the investigation, it was no exaggeration to say that the results were more reliable than those obtained by the police investigation.
Therefore, Su Yao did not refuse, but said happily: "Thank you, Master Jiang, thank you for your help. I believe that no monster can escape your eyes."
"You're welcome. That's it for now. See you later!"
"Yeah, see you later!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Feng said hello to his wife and father-in-law and mother-in-law, then drove to Minghu Hotel.
…
An hour later.
A conference room on the second floor of Minghu Hotel.
Jiang Feng looked at Kong Nanshan and Su Yao and said, "After my investigation, the problem is indeed not with the hotel staff. Let's change our thinking. Could it be related to the guests staying at the hotel?"
Su Yao said: "The police have also considered this issue and have even started investigating it, but they haven't found any suspicious points yet."
Jiang Feng said: "Boss Su, please have someone bring me the information of the guests who checked into the hotel these two days. I will check it to see if there are any problems."
Su Yao nodded and said, "Okay, Master Jiang, please wait a moment. I'll have someone send the information up right away."
After that, Su Yao called to arrange this matter.
A few minutes later, an employee brought up the printed customer information.
Jiang Feng took the information and began to check their detailed information one by one according to their names and ID cards. Because he did not look at all the information and only the latest information, his speed was still very fast.
Kong Nanshan and Su Yao both knew that Master Jiang was making a calculation. The couple didn't say anything, but just waited with anticipation.
Hard work pays off. When Jiang Feng checked the information of the 36th customer, he instantly became alert and pointed at the customer's name and said, "Boss Su, there is something wrong with this customer named Liu Xiaohua. You can ask the police to focus on investigating him. I believe there will be gains."
Kong Nanshan and Su Yao were both cheered up when they heard this.
They are trying their best to find the "culprit", not only for the purpose of making the other party compensate for their economic losses, but to be honest, most people cannot afford to pay for such a huge loss.
Their purpose is actually very simple, which is to send this vicious guy to prison, preferably for the rest of his life, otherwise it will be difficult to get rid of the hatred in their hearts.
Su Yao immediately stood up and said, "Nanshan, you accompany Master Jiang to drink tea here, I will go down to negotiate with the police and ask them to focus on investigating this guy."
Kong Nanshan nodded and said, "Well, go ahead!"
Jiang Feng added: "Boss Su, you may not be familiar with this guy, but he actually has a deep connection with your hotel. He started working in your hotel five years ago, and his job was to maintain electrical facilities and lines. That's why he was able to conceal the truth and easily create this fire."
Su Yao didn't expect that this guy had such a connection with her hotel. She frowned and said, "Five years ago, this hotel didn't belong to me. This is really strange. An employee who has been away for five years, I have no grudges against him. Is he crazy? Why did he come to destroy my hotel? "
Jiang Feng said leisurely: "He is actually just a pawn. Although he caused the fire, he only took money from others and helped them eliminate the disaster."
"There is someone behind this?"
Su Yao's face changed when she heard this. "Master Jiang, can you figure out who is behind this?"
Jiang Feng shook his head and said, "I can't figure it out for now, because even the person who created the fire doesn't know the identity of that person, so I can't figure out the person's true identity from him."
Su Yao understood this. After all, Master Jiang was not a real god. If he wanted to calculate something, he would at least need a "medium", such as name and ID number. It would be difficult for him to calculate out of thin air without any "medium"!
"Master Jiang, you stay here and have some tea. I'll go down and talk to the police. I want them to focus on investigating Liu Xiaohua and see if they can find the mastermind behind this."
"Well, go ahead. You should know what to say to President Su, right?"
"Master Jiang, don't worry. I understand."
After Su Yao came downstairs, Jiang Feng started chatting with Kong Nan about all sorts of things.
…
at the same time.
At a food stall not far from Minghu Hotel, Liu Xiaohua ordered four dishes and a few bottles of beer, eating and drinking with gusto.
No one would have thought that this seemingly ordinary-looking guy had set a fire in a four-star hotel in the morning.
Originally, Liu Xiaohua was an honest man and not very courageous. He would never dare to do something as serious as starting a fire in a four-star hotel which could easily attract public attention.
But as the saying goes, a desperate dog will jump over the wall. When a person is forced into a desperate situation, he will do things without hesitation that he would not dare to do before.
Just last year, Liu Xiaohua became addicted to gambling.
There is no need to say much about the harm of gambling. Once you become addicted to it, it will be very difficult to get out of it.
Many gamblers, when they feel extremely regretful after losing, even use a knife to stomp their fingers and swear never to gamble again. However, after the stomped-off fingers heal, it doesn’t take long for them to sit back at the gambling table.
From this we can see that it is not easy to truly quit gambling.
Gambling basically means nine out of ten losses. As a member of the general public, Liu Xiaohua is no exception. After being addicted to gambling for more than half a year, he not only lost all his savings of many years, but also owed more than 200,000 yuan in debt to relatives and friends.
The worst thing is that he still owes more than 200,000 yuan in online loans.
It was this debt of four or five hundred thousand that made Liu Xiaohua feel suffocated.
Before he became addicted to gambling, Liu Xiaohua could easily borrow 30,000 or 50,000 yuan from relatives and friends. But after his relatives and friends knew he was addicted to gambling, his credit rating in front of them has dropped to negative points.
No one would be willing to lend him even three or five hundred, let alone thirty or fifty thousand.
Because relatives and friends all know that lending this kind of money will not only not help him, but will also harm him.
Just when Liu Xiaohua was at his wit's end, someone suddenly contacted him and asked him to use the electrical lines in the hotel where he used to work to create a fire. As long as he completed the task, he would be given 500,000 yuan.
If it were in the past, Liu Xiaohua would definitely not have the courage to earn this money, but now he was so desperate for money that he didn't think too much about it and agreed readily.
So, there was the fire at Minghu Hotel.
The reason why he chose to start the fire in broad daylight instead of at night was naturally because he was afraid of causing casualties. After all, customers are sleeping at night. If the fire spreads and cannot be extinguished in time, it is possible that countless lives will be lost.
Liu Xiaohua is very brave now, but unless he is really crazy, he dare not take any life.
Now, with 500,000 yuan in hand (he took the money first and then did the work), and the work was completed smoothly, Liu Xiaohua's gambling desire that had nowhere to go broke out again, and he called the owner of a chess and card room early and asked him to reserve a seat for him.
At 7:30 in the evening, after eating and drinking, Liu Xiaohua, still drunk, took a taxi to a chess and card room he often went to.
Seeing Liu Xiaohua, a familiar mahjong player greeted him, "Old Liu, I haven't seen you play mahjong for a while. Where have you been making money recently?"
When Liu Xiaohua heard the word "get rich", he felt a little sensitive at this critical juncture, so he just made up an excuse to deal with it.
Because everyone arrived at the agreed time, when Liu Xiaohua arrived, other mahjong players also arrived one after another, and soon the sound of mahjong could be heard in a box in the chess and card room.
As a result, the door of the box was pushed open by the police after playing mahjong for less than half an hour...
The moment they saw the police, the other three card-playing friends thought they were unlucky and were caught gambling. Although they all had bitter faces, they were not too worried.
At most, you will be imprisoned for half a month and fined, it’s just a small matter.
But for Liu Xiaohua, who had something to hide, the feeling was different. Although he looked calm on the surface, his hands and feet had actually started to feel sore!
Facts have proved that Liu Xiaohua's psychological quality is not very strong. After being taken back by the police and frightened for a few words, he confessed everything he knew.
…
"Master Jiang, just as you expected, although Liu Xiaohua confessed the truth, he has no idea who ordered him to do this. He has never even met the other person and they all contacted over the phone." Su Yao said helplessly.
Right now, we know that there is an enemy hiding in the dark, but we don’t know who the enemy is. This feeling would make anyone’s scalp tingle.
This time the other party was targeting her hotel, wanting to destroy it with a fire. Would they target her personally next?
In short, Su Yao will not be able to sleep or eat well unless the enemy hiding in the dark is found out.
Kong Nanshan comforted her, "Wife, don't worry too much. Give the police some time. I believe they will be able to find the real culprit behind the scenes."
Jiang Feng thought for a moment and said, "Boss Su, there is no love or hatred in this world without reason. The other party paid 500,000 yuan to hire someone to start a fire in your hotel. Their hatred for you is very strong.
Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that we have encountered a madman, but according to normal logic, the real culprit behind the scenes should be seeking revenge on you.
So, this person most likely has a grudge against you. Think carefully about who you have been grudges against for so many years.
Su Yao felt that what Master Jiang said made sense. She hadn't offended anyone in the past two years, but if the timeline was extended...
Thinking of this, Su Yao glanced at her husband, then gritted her teeth and said, "Master Jiang, you know how I got this hotel. Do you think it's possible that his wife knew about my existence, so she's taking revenge on me?"
Hearing this, Kong Nanshan's expression did not change. He knew that his wife had been a lover of a business tycoon. He continued, "Wife, this possibility should not be high, right? There is no reason why his wife did not find out when you were together, and only found out after you separated for several years."
Jiang Feng was naturally very clear about the history of Su Yao, a wealthy woman. He pondered and said, "Logically speaking, this situation will not happen, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Wait for me for a few minutes. I will first calculate and see if it has anything to do with his wife."
Su Yao responded, and then waited anxiously for Master Jiang's calculation results.
