Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

Chapter 2688 The Scope of Hatred is a Bit Wide

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the company.

Meanwhile, things were just as chaotic here, with a bunch of reporters squatting at the entrance.

The piercing sirens of the fire trucks still echoed, but the fire was now completely under control, and firefighters were packing up hoses and equipment.

Security personnel moved back and forth, some maintaining order, others assisting in cleaning up the scene.

Zhou Si went directly upstairs through the internal passage of the underground parking lot, avoiding the noise at the front entrance.

When he arrived at the floor where David's office was located, the scene before him was shocking.

The once impressive office is now unrecognizable, with charred walls and ceilings testifying to the severity of the fire.

The office door was broken down by firefighters and hung crookedly on the door frame, with shards of glass scattered all over the floor, a truly horrific sight.

Moreover, the large amount of water sprayed during the firefighting left the entire area wet.

The air was thick with the pungent smell of smoke, mixed with moisture, making it difficult to breathe.

Several police officers are carefully examining the scene, and fire investigators are also collecting evidence of possible fire origin.

When Zhou Si arrived, the security captain nervously greeted him, "President."

Zhou Si nodded, his gaze sweeping over the devastated office, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the situation now? Has the cause of the fire been determined?"

The security captain was trembling all over, with large beads of sweat on his forehead. He shook his head and said, "No."

He was terrified that the security team would bear inescapable responsibility for such a serious incident.

Now, his only consolation is that the fire happened at night, thankfully without causing any loss of life.

Otherwise, according to the company's rules and regulations and the security responsibility agreement they signed, the entire security team would likely bear legal responsibility and might even face imprisonment.

Even so, the current situation is enough to terrify him.

David's office was full of expensive items, most of which were burned.

If they were truly held accountable, these ordinary security guards would probably not be able to scrape together even a fraction of what they had, even if they sold everything they owned.

The thought of potentially incurring astronomical compensation bills made the security captain feel dizzy and plunged him into deep despair.

After listening, Zhou Si did not immediately express his opinion, but instead instructed his bodyguards to go in and investigate the specific situation.

About half an hour later, firefighters and police officers who had completed their initial investigation came out one after another.

One of the officers walked straight up to Zhou Si and asked, "Excuse me, are you the person in charge of the Lantes Group?"

Zhou Si nodded. "Yes, that's me."

The police and firefighters exchanged a glance and said, "We've found the source of the fire. It started near the desk, barring any unforeseen circumstances."

Another officer chimed in, pulling out a notebook and flipping through it: "Based on the evidence at the scene, it appears the victim was smoking a cigar and accidentally ignited the documents on the table, causing the fire."

Zhou Si frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, "If it's just desktop files, it shouldn't be burned to this extent?"

The firefighter nodded. "That's right. So after our investigation, we found that someone may have put some kind of flammable chemical in the house."

He cautiously shook a sealed bag in his hand and continued, "This is the powder we collected; we need to take it back for testing."

The firefighter and the police officer exchanged a glance and concluded with serious expressions: "This fire, barring any unforeseen circumstances, is most likely a deliberate act."

Zhou Si narrowed his eyes and said, "So it really was man-made? In that case, it was these things that caused the circuit problem, which led to people being trapped at the source."

The police officer nodded. "Yes."

He then added, "And the door lock seems to have been tampered with as well."

Zhou Si raised an eyebrow and glanced at the gate.

David was known for his extravagant lifestyle, and naturally, he used only the most luxurious items.

Even the door lock in front of us is a high-end imported product.

If the door handle is faulty, the lock cannot be opened for a short period of time.

The police pointed to the lock and explained, "There are some strange scratches inside the lock cylinder. They are very subtle and almost impossible to detect unless you are a professional."

This has clearly been tampered with; someone is trying to trap him.

All indications at the scene suggest that this was not an accident, but a premeditated murder.

The police officer said sternly, "So next, we need to ask some questions about the specifics of your situation in Lants. Please cooperate."

Zhou Si nodded, cooperating readily. "Please ask, I will tell you the truth."

The police officer began by asking, "Has Lanster offended anyone, or made any enemies?"

Zhou Si laughed when he heard this.

Then, he calmly replied, "Enemies? There are many. You should have heard of Lantes's style, right?"

The one who was burned was my biological father, the current chairman of LANTES.

Known for his madness, he was arrogant and disrespectful in his youth, abducting respectable women and being a womanizer.

In the business world, he is ruthless and has never taken anyone seriously.

Anyone or anything that doesn't meet his standards will either be arbitrarily belittled by him or suffer his merciless humiliation.

If you accidentally offend him, you may suffer verbal abuse at best, and at worst, you may pay a terrible price with a broken arm or leg.

If we're talking about making enemies, the scope is actually quite broad.

There's no way to guess it in a short time.

Zhou Si never expected that coming here tonight would lead to him exposing some dirty secrets about David.

So naturally, he wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.

It would be best to have the police dig up David's past and investigate it thoroughly.

Zhou Si's lips curled up almost imperceptibly as he continued, "To be honest, the reason he's been able to survive until now is entirely due to Lantes's background."

It's not surprising at all that something like this happened today!

He told the truth without hiding anything.

Upon hearing these words, even the seasoned police officers couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

Although, they had heard about this matter.

But as the victim's son, can you please stop being so calm? Is this how you present your case?

They were completely unreserved, saying everything as if it were something that didn't concern them.

The police officer was exasperated, but still maintained his professionalism and continued to ask, "So, is there a general range, or rather, a group with a relatively high level of hatred?"

Zhou Si remained calm and replied, "Of course there are. The Bond family is very suspicious."

Officer, you might want to investigate this family.

Our company recently terminated its long-term cooperation with them. They not only owed a large amount of default penalties and were unable to repay them, but their entire family business was also on the verge of bankruptcy.

You should know that people who are desperate are most likely to resort to desperate measures.

Therefore, I suggest that you pay close attention to this goal.

Perhaps we can gain something from this.
