Mysterious Séancer: My Doll Can Really Show Its Power
Chapter 170 The Story of the Sea of Fire! You are a person I can trust.
Looking at the veteran police officer in front of him, Cao Mingliang glanced at his uniform.
After looking at his shoulder insignia, cufflinks, and collar insignia, Cao Mingliang knew he was an auxiliary police officer.
"Did you need something?" Cao Mingliang's eyelids twitched slightly as he looked at the old police officer's face, which was covered in burn marks resembling earthworms. "I don't handle small matters."
Veteran police officer: "Thirty-one lives, is that a small matter?"
Cao Mingliang asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
The veteran officer paused for a moment, then said, "Team Leader Lei told me that you are a trustworthy person."
Cao Mingliang stepped aside to let the door open. "Come in."
The old police officer staggered inside, and it was then that Cao Mingliang noticed that he had a problem with one leg and one arm.
Generally speaking, people with physical disabilities are not eligible to serve as auxiliary police officers.
"I'm sorry, I'm lame. To be honest, I'm only able to make a living thanks to Captain Lei's help."
As the veteran police officer spoke, he took out a USB drive and handed it to Cao Mingliang, saying, "There are several videos inside that are related to the fire at the Xiangli Hotel in Mingyue City ten years ago."
Cao Mingliang didn't take the USB drive, but instead asked, "Why are you only thinking of taking this out now?"
The veteran officer fell silent again, seemingly recalling some unpleasant memories.
He stood there for a full minute before he came to his senses and said, "Captain Cao, if I had taken this out a month earlier, not only would the item have been destroyed, but I would have lost more than just an arm and a leg."
Cao Mingliang asked, "What happened in the past month?"
The veteran officer stared into Cao Mingliang's eyes and said, "This matter cannot be discussed in detail, Captain Cao. Why did you come to Cang'er in the first place?"
A look of understanding appeared in Cao Mingliang's eyes.
The biggest thing that happened in Cang'er in the past month was the death of several people.
One of them was a local deputy in Mingyue City ten years ago, then became the chief official in Cang'er, and later retired.
This person died last month.
Bai Chang, the fourth lamp illuminating Yang Ning's path forward.
Cao Mingliang will always remember that rainy night in front of Chongwen Temple, when Bai Chang, whose heart had been ripped out, lay on the side, surrounded by a group of police officers, but Yang Ning still left easily.
He even had a friendly chat with himself before leaving.
Thinking back to those moments, Cao Mingliang's gaze focused on the old police officer's burned face in front of him, and he said, "I made a mistake last month."
"In a moment of impulse, I killed a damned man who was already incapacitated."
"For people in our organization, that wasn't a serious mistake."
"But it had very serious consequences for me. I regretted it for several days afterward. I felt that I couldn't act impulsively anymore."
As the old police officer listened to Cao Mingliang's words, his eyes gradually dimmed.
However, Cao Mingliang continued, "But today, when you came to see me, I felt the same impulsiveness I had before, and it wasn't without its gains."
"At least, people like Lei still think I'm somewhat useful."
"So, just now, I suddenly asked myself, Cao Mingliang, if you weren't impulsive, hot-headed, and hot-blooded, would you still be yourself?"
As he spoke, Cao Mingliang reached out and took the USB drive from the old police officer's hand. "That's obviously not it."
"Thank you, Captain Cao!"
"You're too kind. How should I address you?"
"My name is Peng Yong."
"There are chairs over there, bring them over yourself. I have a computer here."
"it is good."
......
The USB drive contains several surveillance videos, taken by cameras ten years ago.
Some of these videos were secretly filmed in hotel rooms.
The shooting quality is very poor.
But you can probably see what the people inside are doing.
Inside a suite, dozens of people were engaged in in-depth discussions.
Because there were more men than women, they called in about ten more girls.
During the conversation, a man appeared to have gotten into a conflict with the two girls, and they started fighting.
The girl picked up her phone to call for help, but the man picked up a bottle and smashed it over her head.
The girl then fell to the ground, and the scene descended into chaos.
Cao Mingliang recognized the man at a glance, because he had just watched the man's interview video.
It's Lorraine.
Peng Yong, who was standing next to him, said, "This video was secretly filmed in the hotel room by a manager with a particular fetish."
"The people in the video are from the Tianxiang Santa Group, who came to Xia Country ten years ago when the two countries' medical expo was held in Mingyue City."
"These girls are local, well, local girls who have made some mistakes in their thinking."
After the first video ended, Cao Mingliang opened the second video.
This time it's surveillance video from the corridor, so the quality is much better.
The surveillance video showed that it was past 11 p.m. the next day, and the people from Santa Group looked extremely flustered.
They poured bulk gasoline in the hotel corridors and on the doors of other rooms!
An elderly man dressed in a red monk's robe, holding a stack of talismans, pasted one on the door of each room.
The third video is of the room where they had a deep conversation yesterday. Lorraine, leading several men, has practically doused the entire room with gasoline.
In the middle of the room lay a motionless girl, the same one who had been knocked down by Lorraine with a bottle yesterday.
The fourth video shows the hotel's night shift manager noticing something amiss and leading security guards to investigate. However, the two were suddenly attacked and knocked unconscious by a dozen men who had been lying in wait, and then dragged into a room filled with gasoline.
In the fifth video, at the front of the corridor, someone is hiding in the fire escape. They reach out a hand and throw a burning strip of cloth on the ground, and flames instantly erupt.
Almost the instant the hotel room door with the talisman pasted on it came into contact with the flame, it burst into an even more intense tongue of fire that shot straight up to the ceiling!
The sixth video is filled with flames!
Guests in other rooms on the same floor rushed around, but the entire floor was already sealed off by flames.
A woman carrying a child ran out of a room that was already filled with thick smoke, trying to break through the sea of fire in the corridor.
However, she tried it and was burned by the flames!
The only option is to return it.
At the same time, a fire broke out in the room behind them.
As flames engulfed her from all sides, the seemingly young mother, clutching her child, cried out, "Wu Di! I'm so sorry!"
"Your mother is the one who killed you!"
"Mom shouldn't have bought you, and she shouldn't have brought you to this hotel!"
"God, please! Let me die, let my son live!"
"No, no, this isn't my son! God, I'm guilty! I shouldn't have bought someone else's child! Let me die, don't let this stranger be implicated!"
The child hid in the woman's arms and cried loudly.
But the rapidly spreading sea of fire would not be stopped for even a moment by the cries.
The young mother and son watched helplessly as flames surged in from all directions, burning them to death.
The woman held the child in her arms tightly until her death.
In the seventh video, a man wrapped in a wet blanket rushes through the fire to the fire escape, only to find in despair that the escape has already been blocked off.
In the end, the flames consumed him as well.
This concludes all videos.
