Chapter 373 Investigating the Cause of the Fire
He Feng never dreamed that Zheng Qiang, who always seemed smart and capable, was so naive! As expected, Team Leader Zhang shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Alas, this matter is really difficult to handle!"
Zheng Qiang did not expect that there would be a fire. You know, all the evidence is with Team Leader Zhang, which means there is no evidence left.
Zheng Qiang glanced at He Feng, nodded, and said nothing more.
Team leader Zhang smiled when he saw Zheng Qiang's expression. After all, Zheng Qiang's expression made everything clear at once. It seemed that He Feng really had no evidence at this time.
He Feng initially doubted whether Zheng Qiang really believed it, but he did not expect that Zheng Qiang could really act.
In fact, it’s not that Zheng Qiang can act, but he really forgot it at the beginning. When he looked at He Feng, he suddenly remembered it, so he started acting afterwards.
Team leader Zhang was thinking to himself that with He Feng's hot temper, he would definitely fly into a rage upon hearing what he said. However, to his surprise, He Feng was surprisingly calm at this moment, not even uttering a word of complaint or accusation.
Team leader Zhang carefully glanced at He Feng and said tremblingly: "Director He, we really have no idea what caused this fire accident..."
Team Leader Zhang wanted to see if He Feng had any backup plan.
Just as He Feng was about to open his mouth to respond, Zhao Lei suddenly came over in a hurry and asked with concern, "Director, are you okay?"
He Feng first glared at Team Leader Zhang fiercely, then turned his gaze to Zhao Lei and said in a firm and serious tone: "Zhao Lei, now I am officially handing you an important task - you must thoroughly investigate how this fire started! Do you understand?"
Zhao Lei nodded without hesitation and said, "Director, please rest assured! I will immediately start a comprehensive investigation!"
Seeing this, Team Leader Zhang wanted to add a few words to explain, but when he saw He Feng's cold expression and his tightly closed lips, he had to swallow the words back.
Then, He Feng turned around and walked straight towards the lounge without looking back, leaving Team Leader Zhang standing there. Although he felt something was not right, he could not figure out the reason.
After thinking about it, Team Leader Zhang could only comfort himself: Maybe He Feng didn't have any substantial evidence at the moment, so he chose to keep it to himself for the time being. Anyway, to him, this was just a trivial matter.
He Feng walked back to his spacious and bright office with steady steps. Not long after he sat down, a burst of light and hurried footsteps came from afar.
Sure enough, after a while, the burly and serious-looking Team Leader Zhang appeared at the door, and walked quickly to stand in front of He Feng.
Team leader Zhang frowned slightly, staring at He Feng closely, and said with difficulty: "Director He, I'm really sorry about this matter! But the situation is a bit tricky at the moment, and all the relevant evidence has disappeared."
He Feng's heart sank when he heard this, but he remained calm. He looked up at Team Leader Zhang's slightly anxious eyes and asked slowly, "So, how should we deal with this matter? We can't just let it go like this."
Team leader Zhang smiled bitterly, hesitated for a moment, and then replied, "Director He, I'm afraid you have to come with us for a while. Although there is a lack of solid evidence at present, we still need you to cooperate with us to conduct further investigations."
Team Leader Zhang knew that it was not a good thing to say, but there was nothing he could do now, so he could only continue to say so.
He Feng thought for a moment, then nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with Team Leader Zhang's proposal. But then he added, "Okay, but I want to wait until this matter is fully resolved and the real cause is found out before I go with you, is that okay?"
Team Leader Zhang opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to persuade He Feng to leave immediately, but when he met He Feng's firm and unquestionable eyes, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. In the end, Team Leader Zhang sighed helplessly and no longer insisted on his own opinion.
After all, what else can I say? I can't forcibly take the director of the Public Security Bureau away.
The night passed in a flash, and the morning light shone through the window onto the Public Security Bureau's office building. At this time, Ma Xin, with sleepy eyes, hurried to the Public Security Bureau.
However, what she never expected was that as soon as she walked through the door, she saw a shocking scene in front of her - the ground was in a mess, with traces of burning and broken objects everywhere. Ma Xin's heart tightened, and she didn't have time to think about it. She quickly quickened her pace and walked straight to He Feng's office.
Arriving at the office door, Ma Xin raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door. After hearing the voice of "Come in", she pushed the door open and walked in.
The atmosphere in the room was solemn. He Feng was sitting at his desk with a serious face, staring at Team Leader Zhang who also had a serious expression across from him. Ma Xin asked in confusion, "Director, what happened here? Why did it become like this?"
He Feng turned his head and looked at Ma Xin, his face still serious. He replied in a heavy tone: "Expert Ma, you came at the right time. We are currently waiting for the results of the investigation into the fire accident last night. As for the specific cause of the fire, I have no idea at the moment."
Ma Xin looked outside, then shook his head: "Director, then?"
He Feng just looked outside, then shook his head and said, "Okay, let's wait until we find out the source of the fire. Besides, Team Leader Zhang and the others are going to take me away too."
At noon, Zhao Lei came in. At this time, He Feng and Team Leader Zhang were both here. He Feng looked at Zhao Lei and said, "Zhao Lei, how is the investigation going?"
Zhao Lei wanted to say something, but looking at Team Leader Zhang on the side, he shook his head: "Team Leader Zhang, Director, the wires are old, so this caused the fire."
He Feng nodded but didn't say anything.
Team leader Zhang looked at He Feng and said, "Director, isn't it time for you to come with us? After all, there is no evidence now."
He Feng shook his head. Team Leader Zhang was unwilling and looked at He Feng: "Director He, what do you mean by this? Are you not going to cooperate with our investigation? This is not a good thing."
