My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 421 Key Evidence (Happy Chinese New Year)
"Section Chief Xu, I'm Lin Jianyang from the Municipal Fire Department. I'm the team leader of the fire accident investigation team. These two are my colleagues. We have some questions for you about the fire accident last night."

Lin Jianyang looks to be in his early forties, wearing black-rimmed glasses, his eyes are very sharp, and he has a power that penetrates people's hearts.

A total of three people came to the investigation team, two men and one woman, and a camera was set up at the scene, which made Xu Dong's heart flutter.

"Team leader Lin, hello, if you have any questions, just ask, I will fully cooperate."

Xu Dong promised with a smile.

After some courtesies, the inquiry officially began.

Lin Jianyang was in charge of asking questions. As for the other two, the woman was in charge of taking notes, while the man, for some unknown reason, kept writing and scribbling in a small notebook.

"Section Chief Xu, first of all, please recall what happened to the fire accident last night, and try to explain it in detail..."

Xu Dong nodded and began to recall.

"We are employees of the security department of the municipal electric power company. Isn't there a fire safety week in the city? We want to take advantage of the National Day holiday to come to Zhiyi Factory for exchange and learning.

It's just that I never expected that a sandstorm suddenly blew up at noon yesterday, and the inspection had to be postponed.

At seven o'clock in the evening, I thought that my vacation time was limited and I couldn't come here for nothing, so I asked Director Liu if I could practice it myself.

It just so happened that Director Liu and the others were also short of people, so we hit it off and were assigned to work in the monitoring center. "

Lin Jianyang nodded, which was basically consistent with the situation they investigated, so he signaled Xu Dong to continue.

"After arriving at the monitoring center, after being reminded by our colleague Xiang Xin, I found that the monitoring center had actually turned off the smoke alarm system in the factory area."

Lin Jianyang interrupted and asked, "What time is it closed?"

"We found out at [-]:[-] in the evening. The alarm hadn't been alerted for half an hour. I guess it was turned off at [-]:[-], which happened to be off work time."

"Okay, please continue!"

"When I found out about this, I thought how could such a large factory turn off the smoke alarm? It was so hasty.

In case of a fire, the weather is so dry and the wind is strong at night, which is fine, so I immediately went to the sea supervisor to check. "

Xu Dong took a sip of water, then introduced:
"At first, Director Hai tried his best to deny it, but under my pressure, he finally admitted it.

According to him, turning off the alarm was a last resort. Due to the sandstorm, there were too many false alarms, and they couldn't handle it. "

"Did he say who gave the order?"

"No." Xu Dong shook his head.

Lin Jianyang made a gesture to continue.

Xu Dong recalled again: "I tried to persuade Director Hai, but in the end I couldn't convince him. As a last resort, I had to get Director Liu's mobile phone number through Director Cao of our company."

Having said that, he paused again.

"Director Liu attached great importance to this matter, and immediately asked the monitoring center to restore the smoke alarm system, and also set up a special task force to deal with false alarm incidents."

"Section Chief Xu, according to the information we got, you tried your best to fight for the position of leader of the special task force at that time, can you tell us the reason?"

Xu Dong touched his head:
"Actually, there is no other reason, I am mainly worried about Xin Hai being in charge of them.

You don't know the situation of the monitoring center at that time. Most of the employees were just doing their job in a perfunctory manner, and didn't pay attention to their work at all.

Of course, it doesn't rule out that they are indeed too tired, after all, they have worked for more than ten hours during the day. "

Anyway, he himself is not an employee of Zhiyi Factory, so he is not afraid of offending others at all.

"Since Liu Xuan has rejected your request, why don't you take the initiative to join the special task force?" Lin Jianyang continued to ask.

"Hey, I didn't think too much at the time, I just thought that it would be good to have more power."

Xu Dong sighed, and then focused on the detailed process of discovering the fire and their rescue process.

To sum it up in one sentence:

They had tried their best, and they could have extinguished the fire in time, but the fire hydrants were not strong enough.

"Section Chief Xu, we have one last question, why did you choose to go to the fertilizer storage area?"

"There are two reasons for this. One is that the west is relatively remote and sparsely populated. Once a fire breaks out, there is no way to find it in time. We are going to the weakest place;
The second is that the safety hazards in the fertilizer storage area are very serious, and any accident will be disastrous. After all, we only have a few people, so we can only avoid the minor ones and focus on the serious ones. "

Lin Jianyang couldn't help admiring: "Mr. Xu, your choice this time is really far-sighted."

"I'm overwhelmed." Xu Dong said modestly.

……

That night, the investigation team gathered everyone's transcripts and began to sort out the whole process of the case.

"Team leader, basically everyone's transcripts are basically the same. There is only one point of contradiction in the case now, and that is Xu Dong himself. Did he set the fire on purpose?"

"I don't think it's possible. Xu Dong didn't have time to commit the crime at all. He was with Gu Haiyuan and others the whole time, and it was said that he set the fire because of a small quarrel. This motive is too far-fetched."

Someone raised an objection: "The possibility of a gang committing crimes is not ruled out. After all, Xu Dong is the direct leader of Gu Haiyuan and others."

"Even if it is possible, the chance is quite small. Arson is a felony, and one of the three subordinates is a combat hero. It is unlikely that such an incident will be committed."

Everyone followed suit and nodded.

One team member went on to analyze:

"According to the records of the users of the patrol car involved in the accident, they suddenly ran out of battery during the patrol process. To save trouble, they secretly pushed the patrol car into the warehouse for charging.

This is the most direct cause of the fire accident.

In addition, we also investigated the production date of this patrol car, and found that the car was actually five years ago, and the battery has never been replaced, which is a great safety hazard. "

Lin Jianyang knocked on the table: "Is there any investigation report on Section Chief Xu Dong Xu?"

As an experienced old investigator, he is keenly aware of the other party's behavior, which is indeed intriguing.

"It's out already."

"Any doubts?"

"I haven't found it yet. According to the analysis of the data in the past two years, Xu Dong has a mild personality, likes to help others, and is widely praised in the company.

And their family background is not ordinary, let's put it this way, he himself is actually a rich second generation, and there are five children in his family, so it shouldn't be so extreme. "

"Five children? Is there something inside this?"

"No, these five children are all born to his wife, one twin, one triplet, and there is no scandal about him."

Lin Jianyang nodded, and finally concluded:
"Urge the identification department to wait for the identification report to come out. I think no one can escape the punishment of the law in the face of ironclad evidence."
