You're Guilty: Conspiracy Scene 2 crime escalation

Chapter 47 The Past Is Not Like Smoke (1)
After Yu Zide and Zhou Qiaoyue were "caught for adultery", Huang Manhua was greedy for Yu's family's wealth, and took the approach of calming things down, and only kicked Zhou Qiaoyue out of the house.

Yu Zide doesn't want to divorce Huang Manhua for the time being.After all, she had only been married not long ago, and she was still counting on her to have a child to continue the incense of the Yu family.Although with his economic conditions, there are many women who are willing to give birth to him, but no woman is a fuel-efficient lamp-people are divided into groups, and the women that Yu Zi can get in touch with are not good. It made him form a wrong and stubborn prejudice against all Chinese women.Out of this consideration, as long as he and Huang Manhua can get along, he won't bother to ask for any changes and cause more twists and turns.

Two people share the same bed with different dreams, and live under the same roof for their own purposes.After serious discussions, the two decided to sell the house they are currently living in, and buy a house with the same area in the best location in the city center with some extra money.But the house is not a small commodity after all, and it may not be able to sell as expected in a short time. The two can only live in the old house as a transition for the time being.

But an even more unbelievable thing happened unexpectedly, which became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

After Huang Manhua "caught the adulterer", her spirit was greatly stimulated. In addition, she recently made two windfalls—one was that after her ex-husband and her child were burned to death, the application process for personal injury insurance premiums of 100 million yuan had already started. It is estimated that it will take another six or seven working days to get it; the second is that Yu Ziye will be allocated a real estate worth about 200 million yuan after getting married-from a young woman with a poor life to a rich woman with a net worth of millions of yuan. The switch made her less interested in work, so she fished for three days, posted nets for two days, and stayed at home most of the time.

At noon this day, the sun was hot and the weather was hot. Huang Manhua took advantage of the coolness in the morning and returned home after doing skin care in a beauty shop. He barely ate five crab roe steamed buns and three sticks of kale with oyster sauce. sleepy.

I don't know how long I slept, but when I was in a daze, I smelled a burnt smell.Huang Manhua opened his eyes, feeling dizzy and throbbing pain in his temples.She struggled to get up, her limbs were so weak, her legs seemed unable to support the weight of her body, and she almost fell to the ground.She leaned on the wall and moved towards the door step by step.The strange thing was that the bedroom door was closed tightly. Huang Manhua stood in front of the door, hesitating for more than ten seconds. She vaguely remembered that she didn't close the bedroom door before going to bed. There was no one else at home, and the weather was so stuffy, so there was no need to close the door.She looked back subconsciously, the window was open!

Huang Manhua's heart skipped a beat and almost stopped beating for a moment.She had the air conditioner on all day, no possibility to open the windows, the only explanation was that someone came into the house while she was sleeping!

It couldn't be that Yu Ziyi came back. When he went out in the morning, he said that he was going to the Provincial Department of Education for a meeting. This was his rare official work day in a year except for meals, and there was no way he would come back halfway.So who else would be in the house?
Could it be... Huang Manhua felt that cold sweat had soaked through his thin clothes, a cool wind was blowing from his back, and his heart was beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.Huang Manhua didn't dare to think about it any longer, so she mustered up her courage, grabbed the doorknob, and yanked it hard—a puff of thick smoke rushed towards her face from the door opening, choking Huang Manhua almost out of breath. Out of emergency response, she pulled hard again Close the door.It's on fire—this confirms Huang Manhua's guess that what should come will come after all, and he can't escape it. If he knew that the retribution of heaven's law is not good, why did he do such a conscienceless thing in the first place?For a while, complex emotions such as confusion, fear, panic, shame, and guilt came one after another. Huang Manhua almost lost the desire to survive, and fell to the ground with his back against the door, his head in his hands, and tears streaming down his face.

At this moment, with a loud noise, the entrance door of her house was opened from the outside, and there were chaotic footsteps, and many people rushed in.Before Huang Manhua could react, the door she was leaning against was slammed open, and Huang Manhua's body jumped forward in response to the sound, and his face touched the floor, wriggling and unable to get up.The people who rushed in saw someone lying prone on the floor in the smoke. They didn't know whether it was dead or alive. They bent down and picked her up, carried her on their backs, and went to a safe place outside.Huang Manhua choked and frightened, and passed out.

The firefighters who rushed to the door were the firefighters who came to the rescue after receiving the alarm.The team was led by the fire captain Liang Wenxuan who had been at the scene where Li Qiong and Li Weiwei were burned to death, and the rising star Ning Zhuo in the team.In fact, although the smoke was billowing in the room and the noise was astonishing, the fire was not big. Only one corner of the kitchen burned, and it did not spread to other places.The firefighters were well-trained and agile, and they put out the fire in just 2 minutes.

Ning Zhuo stared at the pile of ashes in the corner of the kitchen, thinking.Liang Wenxuan asked people to open all the windows in the room to keep the indoor and outdoor air circulating, then took off the gas mask, walked to Ning Zhuo, and said, "Do you have any doubts?"

Ning Zhuo said: "The smoke is big and the fire is small, it looks like a bluff."

Liang Wenxuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's the result of mixing tin foil and slightly damp cotton cloth and lighting it up."

Ning Zhuo shook his head and said, "There was only one hostess when the fire broke out in this room. I don't know how these flammable things started?"

Liang Wenxuan already had the answer in her heart, but she deliberately asked: "If you deliberately want to create a fire in this house, and these inflammable objects are already placed in the corner, how can you ignite them without being there?"

Ning Zhuo couldn't understand it for a while, staring at the ashes that had not been completely burned in the corner.At this time, the sun is blazing, scorching everything on the earth, making it extremely hot.Ning Zhuo saw an extremely bright light spot on the ashes, which was still dazzling in the strong light that sprinkled the ground.He turned his head and looked in the direction of the light spot, and saw something shining on the window sill, and Ning Zhuo's heart suddenly became enlightened, and he suddenly realized.

Seeing Ning Zhuo's expression, Liang Wenxuan knew that he already had the answer, and she raised her expectations for him even more, saying: "A father and son surnamed Li were killed in the fire in the Jiangning community more than a month ago. We have never heard of it." If we can find the cause of the fire, maybe this fire can give us some enlightenment. Have you noticed an important doubt? The hostess who was rescued just now is the wife of the man surnamed Li who died in the fire last time, and the mother of the little boy .”

Ning Zhuo agreed: "When our people carried her out, I noticed her face and recognized her. If the causes of the two fires are the same or similar, then the last fire was too serious and caused the window sill Collapsed, the firelighter smashed to the ground and mixed with pieces of kitchen utensils, unnoticed. The fire was much smaller and the scene was well preserved. Oddly enough, the tinfoil was mixed with damp cotton , can only cause thick smoke, but cannot start a big fire. During the fire, the hostess’ bedroom door was closed tightly, but the window was open. Obviously, she did not want to be smoked. Could it be that the hostess set the fire on purpose for some reason? of?"

Before Liang Wenxuan had time to make a statement, Huang Manhua woke up from a brief coma, slipped into the room quietly, and looked at the window sill through the kitchen door with trepidation. The terrible guess was finally confirmed - there was an exquisite, crystal clear The round fish tank is placed upright on the windowsill, reflecting the bright and dazzling seven-color sunlight in summer.

At that moment, Huang Manhua seemed to have seen the most terrifying thing in the world. All the pretense, fierceness, greed, and cunning were vulnerable to the huge fear. Her emotions collapsed in an instant, and her psychological defense was completely lost. She bent her knees and knelt down On the ground, tears flowed down my cheeks, and I kowtowed to the fish tank like a chicken pecking at rice, muttering: "Husband, son, let's go, don't pester me anymore, I can't help you if I kill you, if you don't die, If you don’t marry me because you are self-satisfied, I can only live in poverty for the rest of my life. You go, let me enjoy life quietly, and I will definitely buy you the best cemetery, so that you can also have a big house to live in there.”

Huang Manhua was crying and confessing. Although Liang Wenxuan and Ning Zhuo had vaguely guessed some clues in advance, it was still inconceivable to hear her confess the tragic fact that her husband and son were burned to death by herself. But it is as hideous and terrifying as a devil.

At this time, the neighbors in the building and the property management personnel of the community also gathered around one after another. They all heard Huang Manhua's confession, and heard the sensational human tragedy.Some emotionally irritable people are eager to try and rush up to fight.

"Don't move," Li Guanlan led three criminal policemen to the scene with a low but majestic roar, "It's up to you to decide what is right and wrong, please don't break the law because of your whim."

Liang Wenxuan and Li Guanlan had known each other for a long time, and they came forward to say hello, "Detachment Li, I'm about to call you, your news is really well informed, and your response is fast enough, it's only now that there is a clue here, and you will be here. "

Li Guanlan said: "It's not that we reacted quickly. Since the case of the father and son double corpses in the Jiangning community more than a month ago, we have been monitoring the mistress who survived the fire, that is, she - the woman who confessed to committing a crime in front of everyone. The real woman, Huang Manhua."

Huang Manhua knelt on the ground, turned his head, and stared at Li Guanlan with bloodshot eyes: "Their ghosts are in that fish tank. I smashed it several times, but I can't drive them away. This damn father and son, when they were alive Drag me down, and refuse to let me go after death."

Li Guanlan glanced at her with contempt and pity, and said to a criminal policeman, "Cuff her."

Liang Wenxuan was full of curiosity and said, "How did you start to suspect her? The fire last time was almost flawless. She had no time to commit the crime, and there was no trace of arson at the scene. We couldn't find the cause of the fire at that time, could it be?" You criminal policemen have many skills and have crossed the line into our professional field?"

Liang Wenxuan asked half-truths and half-falsely, and Li Guanlan could only smile apologetically, and said, "Never dare to cross the line. It is inconvenient to disclose the details of the investigation and handling of the case here. If Team Liang is interested, I will definitely report to you in the future."

Huang Manhua, who had lost her stubborn will and ability to resist, confessed to the crime in the interrogation room of the criminal police team, and explained the fact that she used a fish tank to set fire to Li Qiong and his son.

In view of the fact that the suspect is a woman, Li Guanlan specially invited a female police officer engaged in internal affairs to serve as a jury and record during the presiding trial.When Huang Manhua confessed that she had killed her husband and children with carefully designed and cruel methods, the policewoman who participated in the interrogation for the first time interrupted her several times, suspecting that she had heard wrongly, and after repeated questioning and confirmation, her eyes remained closed. With tears in his eyes, his hands trembling, his handwriting was crooked and out of standard.

Liang Wenxuan and Ning Zhuo were full of doubts about the investigation process of Huang Manhua's arson and murder case, and they still couldn't let go.On a bright and clear night after Huang Manhua was imprisoned and awaiting trial, the two invited Li Guanlan and Su Caixuan to sit in a teahouse to solve their inner mystery.

Li Guanlan does not smoke or drink, and relies on coffee and tea to refresh himself when handling cases day and night. He is especially fine in distinguishing the type, origin, and taste of tea.At this time, he sat at the tea table, took a sip of the fragrant and clear Mingqian tea, and said with a satisfied expression: "This tea tastes good. If you say that Team Liang is really tasteful, don't look at serving in the fire brigade right now. If you take off your police uniform, you will be a gentle and cultured person.”
