1365 Man-made Fire
The netizens’ reaction was quite intense. Many people even reported this user.
“It’s fine if you don’t believe me. Xuan Sheng is a partner in the Moon Bay project, but he wasn’t around at the opening ceremony at all. Also, you can ask the people from the Glory World Corporation if Xuan Sheng has been completely out of contact these few days. Several large meetings have been delayed and canceled.”
For example, large-scale meetings of the corporation would usually be publicized on the company’s official website. Many people really went to the corporation’s official website to take a look and realized that this person was right.
In the past few days, several important meetings of the corporation had been postponed or canceled. Furthermore, Xuan Sheng did not appear at the opening ceremony of the Moon Bay project.
!!
This time, the rumors were more credible.
[Don’t scare me… How can such a handsome man disappear just like that?]
[ Often, the things that are least believed will prove to be right in the end. According to this pattern, I’m a little fl.u.s.tered. I hope CEO Xuan is fine. He’s already miserable enough. Stop torturing him. ]
[I really didn’t see Xuan Sheng at the Moon Bay project. I thought it was because CEO Jun was also present and he’s avoiding suspicion… Oh my G.o.d.]
Xuan Sheng was already very popular on the Internet. Now that such news had been exposed, it naturally swept through Weibo’s trending topics.
“CEO Jun, Xuan Sheng’s matter has been leaked online.” Lin Jing had also sent people to stop the news from spreading, but it was impossible to completely block public opinion. In the end, he could only watch the news spread.
“Mm.” Jun s.h.i.+ling knew that public opinion spread quite quickly, so he did not want to blame Lin Jing. “Just don’t let Madam know. Go and find out what caused Xuan Sheng’s incident.”
“Yes.”
Jun s.h.i.+ling had just hung up when Xia Wanyuan walked in with a few camellia flowers with water droplets in her hand.
“There’s too much rain in Linxi.” Xia Wanyuan handed the camellia to Jun s.h.i.+ling. “But this flower blooms quite well.”
Jun s.h.i.+ling took the flowers and placed Xia Wanyuan’s hand in his pocket. “Are you cold?”
Xia Wanyuan shook her head and smiled at Jun s.h.i.+ling. “I’m hungry. Can you help me get something to eat?”
“Mm.” Jun s.h.i.+ling pulled a blanket from the side and draped it over Xia Wanyuan, while he walked to the kitchen to busy himself.
Looking at Jun s.h.i.+ling’s busy figure in the kitchen, Xia Wanyuan’s expression darkened. She took out her phone and sent Shen Qian a message. A few minutes later, Shen Qian replied.
Looking at the message on her phone, Xia Wanyuan’s eyes paused and she replied to Shen Qian.
When Jun s.h.i.+ling walked out with the bowl again, Xia Wanyuan’s expression had already returned to normal.
“When are you preparing to return to Beijing?” Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun s.h.i.+ling. “I miss Xiao Bao.”
Jun s.h.i.+ling stroked Xia Wanyuan’s hair. “Wait a few more days. I still have something on here.”
There were still many doubts behind Xuan Sheng’s death. With Jun s.h.i.+ling here, at least many things could go more smoothly.
“What is it?” Xia Wanyuan looked into Jun s.h.i.+ling’s eyes. “Aren’t you done?”
“Work-related matters.” Jun s.h.i.+ling avoided Xia Wanyuan’s gaze.
“Oh.” Xia Wanyuan did not ask further. Worry appeared in her lowered eyes.
Although Jun s.h.i.+ling had said that he would wait a few days before leaving, a large number of cultural relics had already begun to be boxed up and taken away in the museum warehouse.
“Be careful. If you break it, you won’t be able to afford it!” The staff packed the cultural relics in an orderly manner and sealed them. Then, they put the sticker aside and waited for the time to be up before loading them into the car.
Outside the warehouse, the curator brought people to watch the situation. Behind him were a few burly men in black.
“Have you seen it clearly? Do you still need me to bring you around to revisit the terrain?” The curator raised his umbrella and looked at the person beside him. The expensive dial on his wrist was wet from the rain and a string of traces flowed out.
“No need. It’s clear. Thank you, curator.” The burly men nodded at the curator and left with an umbrella.
Standing in front of the warehouse and watching the staff paste the cultural relics in boxes, as the curator of the museum, he naturally knew the value of these things.
However, he looked down at the expensive watch on his wrist.
Back then, he had entered the museum because of his pa.s.sion. However, as time pa.s.sed, his pa.s.sion finally subsided. The temptation of life made him completely stand in the darkness.
The curator took one last look at the warehouse, then turned to leave.
That night, the museum in Linxi City caught fire and everything in the warehouse was burned.
Coincidentally, that night, the tall building furthest from the warehouse caught fire. A large number of firefighters were transferred to the tall building to save people.
The fire in the museum burned for the entire night and only stopped the next morning.
The fire in another tall building was also controlled in the morning, but the high-rise building lacked fire power to begin with. In addition, there were many people.
This fire had killed nearly ten people and injured dozens.
Due to the huge loss, the fire quickly became a trending topic on the news.
While many people felt sorry for the dead, they also noticed the location of the fire.
While it was related to this huge fire, news about the fire in the museum warehouse was also exposed.
When everyone’s attention gradually s.h.i.+fted to the fire in the museum warehouse, everyone realized that this was too strange.
The warehouse was connected to the museum in front, but the warehouse had been reduced to ashes and the museum was intact. On the night of the incident, there was actually no staff in the warehouse, so there was no damage, other than those cultural relics.
From the looks of it, the fire in the warehouse was more like a deliberate arson.
At this moment, a teacher from Nancheng University stood up.
“It’s really strange. I just contacted Qing University and asked our school’s teachers to go and observe and learn tomorrow. We haven’t even gone, why did the thing burn up first?? Tsk, tsk, tsk.”
The timing and tone of this Weibo post were too subtle. It was impossible not to think of conspiracy theories.
[I have a bold idea… Isn’t everyone saying that the fire was man-made?? Is Qing University afraid that the people from Nancheng University will find out something, so they decided to burn it down?]
[Looking at the Nancheng University professor’s tone, I think our guess should be about right???]
The netizens said it, but there was no evidence until the Linxi City police released an official notice.
The specific content of the report was that the fire in the warehouse was indeed man-made.
