Chapter 318 Be Prepared
An Zhixia had a kind of magical power, like the Dinghai Shenzhen in X Travels, which made the head of the TV station regain his sanity and inexplicably determined that the matter could be resolved satisfactorily.
He took a deep breath and said in a steady voice, "The comrades from the police station have just arrived 20 minutes ago and are investigating the scene inside and outside, but it seems they haven't found any strong evidence."
An Zhixia nodded. The meeting room had been blocked off. From the outside, one could see that the room was burnt black, and one could smell the burnt smell in the air.
At that time, in order to facilitate office work, four desks were arranged horizontally to place the letters that had passed the review. Therefore, they were separated from the other desks in the circle by a vertical distance of one table, so as to prevent a larger fire.
The doors and windows were intact, with no signs of damage, and the floor was cleaned very well, with no footprints left behind...
A few minutes later, four comrades from the police station packed up their things and came over.
"The windows were all closed, and there were no footprints in the flowerbed outside. It's impossible for someone to climb in from outside. The door lock was not damaged, and there was no fire source in the house. We initially concluded that it was one of your internal employees or someone related to you who used a key to open the lock and set the fire." They frowned and said, "Next we have to check your employees one by one."
"It's my duty," Director Wu looked at An Zhixia, and when he saw her nod, he forced a smile.
The four comrades started with the keys. The conference room was not a private office, and there were no important documents, so each assistant director had one, the security room had two, and the data room had a backup. Because recruitment had only started last week, the time frame for their investigation was slightly smaller.
However, when they really started investigating, they found that almost everyone could have committed the crime, and they quickly rejected this direction.
Everyone said that they were watching TV and sleeping last night, and their family members testified to this.
An Zhixia followed the whole process silently, taking in everyone's expressions and recording them with a camera.
They didn't get any useful information the whole morning, and before leaving, they helplessly told the station director: "Be prepared, this matter should be difficult to investigate, and it is very likely to be left unresolved, so don't hold out too much hope."
Director Wu's face turned pale, but he still had to send the person away in a nice manner.
He said to the deputy directors and An Zhixia in a muffled voice: "If we can't catch the criminal, he will definitely be rampant and wait for the next time to do bad things! This time he only burned the recruitment letter, next time he will dare to attack our data room and rehearsal room!
Are we just going to suffer this?"
An Zhixia narrowed her eyes and sneered, "No, this arson case is of a serious nature and has a great impact. I would like to trouble the director to report this to the higher-ups. Even if we cannot solve the case, we must show a serious and ruthless attitude."
The director nodded helplessly after a while: "This is the only way. I hope that person can be fooled."
She smiled but said nothing, and walked around by herself. Most of the employees in the office area were on vacation, and she stood outside the office building, staring at the window, actually controlling the drone to take down the camera she had placed on the treetop.
The camera was small, only the size of a palm, with a layer of glue on the base. She used a small drone to place it on a very high tree, where it was covered by layers of leaves, making it easy to hide. Even if the night shooting mode was turned on at night, it would be difficult for people to detect infrared rays. After all, they would be alert to look around, but they would not raise their necks to look at the abnormality on the tree.
The camera has a solar panel, so it can be placed in the wild for a long time.
She first watched the video stored in the camera facing the conference room window, reviewing it quickly in drag mode. When she discovered the fire, she looked at the time and took a screenshot to save it.
The criminals should have entered through the normal stairs, opened the door with a key and set the fire. So she checked the camera facing the staircase, adjusted the time to half an hour before the fire, and watched it in fast forward.
Sure enough, at one o'clock in the morning, a figure looking around entered the camera area. Almost at the same time, a security guard patrolled with a flashlight, and the other person was frightened and quickly hid in the corridor. An Zhixia zoomed in and captured the slightly blurred profile of the person. She used the computer to create the illusion of parallel shooting from the perspective of several photos, and then developed the photos.
An Zhixia returned to the office and called the director over. She pointed to a thick stack of printed papers on her desk and more than 200 letters next to it. She chuckled and said, "Director, please contact the comrades in the communications company and ask them to contact the recruiter as soon as possible to take the exam this weekend."
The director was surprised and took a step forward to look through the documents. Each printed sheet contained a miniature copy of the applicant's resume, household registration booklet, and diploma. There were 2,000 copies in this stack! "This," he quickly flipped through the documents below, and was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"I like to make a backup of everything. Every day I will pack the letters I have selected and take them home. The next day when I go to work, I will ask my brother to send me to make two copies of them, which will be easier to archive and check."
"Okay, okay, okay!" The station director heaved a sigh of relief, and nodded with a smile, "I was just saying that your brother came to your office today with a big bag on his back, and when he heard that the letters you had worked so hard to select for a week were burned, he was just angry for a moment, and didn't pay too much attention to it, and went back to prepare for filming.
So you guys were prepared for this! This is a good habit."
As he said this, he asked his assistant to put the information in a cardboard box and carry it to the communications company.
An Zhixia asked someone to clear the mailbox at the entrance of the TV station again, but she just pretended to look through it for half an hour. The announcement stipulated that the recruitment period was one week, so she would not give a chance to applicants who exceeded the time limit, and this time she only gave the photo a source.
So she stood up suddenly, holding a very thin letter and walked out with a happy face.
"Where are you going?" Fang Yuangang asked with a smile as he rode over on a motorcycle.
An Zhixia ran over and jumped into the truck bed, "Let's go to the nearby police station."
Fang Yuan started the car without saying a word.
When they arrived at the police station, An Zhixia briefly told him what happened in the morning and showed him the letter in her hand.
Her eyes sparkled with joy, and her face was full of smiles. "I originally wanted to confuse the other party and pick out the right person from the hundreds of letters in the mailbox, but I didn't expect to get an unexpected reward!"
Fang Yuan took the photo and looked at it, surprise flashing in his eyes, "Someone happened to take this photo? Wouldn't the flash have alerted the criminals?"
