Chapter 2324: Villa No. 19 (1)

Translator: 549690339

“Shanghai, Jiangbei District, wanan road, Fuxing District. ”

“It was getting late, and the air was cold. Cui Lizhu took out her phone and checked the messages on her phone as she observed the house in front of her. ”

“No. 19 was written on the door plate, which was the address given to him by the clock shop owner. ”

‘That’s strange …’

Cui Lizhu muttered to herself. Didn’t they say that the villa had been burned down? How did he …

“Indeed, the three-story villa in front of him was exquisite and unique. It did not look like it had been on fire at all. ”

That’s true …

“After all, the fire had happened 30 years ago. So many years had passed since then, and the house must have been renovated. She wondered if the people who lived in the house were related to the case she was investigating. ”

“Then, cui Lizhu pressed the doorbell of the villa. ”

“However, there was no response even after a long time. ”

“She rang the doorbell a few more times, but there was no sound. She wondered if the doorbell was broken. ”

“Thus, she knocked hard on the door again, but after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement from inside. ”

Oh …

It seemed that there was really no one in the room …

“Cui Lizhu peeked through the door and saw that the villa’s courtyard was full of all kinds of flowers and plants. It looked very lively, so there must be someone living there. ”

“The villa was built in a European style and exuded an exotic atmosphere. However, the floral patterns on the windows and the Red Lanterns hanging on the porch highlighted the rich local atmosphere. ”

Sigh …

“Cui Lizhu looked at her phone again, complaining that Zeng ke had not found any information yet. ”

“So far, she only knew that this Fuxing District was a relatively famous District in Shanghai. Because the single villas here were all special buildings left behind from before the liberation, they were preserved as a local protection project and had not been planned to be demolished. ”

“As this place was located in the center of Shanghai, it had always been a luxury house among luxury houses. The current price of each house was basically over 100 million Yuan. Those who could live here were naturally rich and respectable. ”

“However, because the community was built too early, there were no underground parking facilities here. The owners ‘cars could only pass through the community and Park in their own courtyards or on the street outside their courtyards. ”

“Just as cui Lizhu was waiting for Zeng ke’s call, a brand-new BMW X7 slowly stopped in front of cui Lizhu. It was parked in front of the villa opposite number 19. ”

“Soon, a young couple alighted from the car. The wife was carrying a baby in her arms. ”

“The husband took out two large bags of vegetables and food from the trunk, and the two of them opened the door and entered the villa opposite. ”

That’s right!

“A distant relative was not as good as a close neighbor, and a close neighbor was not as good as the opposite house. ”

“Cui Lizhu quickly ran over and shouted at the couple,””””Sorry to interrupt, but can I ask you a few questions?”” ”

“When they heard cui Lizhu’s shout, the couple immediately stopped and turned around to look. ”

“Cui Lizhu quickly showed her id and said,”” ”

“””I’m a police officer, and I’m currently investigating a case. I hope you can provide us with some information!”” ”

“””We?”” The man was taken aback and looked slightly nervous.””What can we help you with?”” ”

“””Oh, don’t be nervous,”” cui Lizhu quickly said. She then pointed to Villa 19 and said,””it’s about the house opposite yours!”” ”

“””The opposite door?”” The man glanced at his wife and mumbled,””so it’s that Japanese guy?”” ”

“””Ah?”” Cui Lizhu was stunned.””Japanese?”” ”

“””Yes, that’s right!”” At this time, the woman came over with the child in her arms. She nodded and said,””officer, the person opposite our house is a Japanese man. Why are you looking for him?”” ”

“Cui Lizhu was a little confused, but she quickly organized her thoughts and asked again,””””How long has this Japanese been living here? What I want to ask is about the fire at the door opposite your house!”” ”

“””What? A fire?”” The two of them looked at Villa No. 19 at the same time. The woman wondered,””I didn’t hear that his house was on fire. Are you alright?”” ”

“””No, I mean …”” Cui Lizhu said quickly.””It’s about the fire 30 years ago!”” ”

“””Wow …”” The man was surprised.””I’m only 27 this year … What do you want to investigate?”” ”

“””Oh … Yes …”” The woman suddenly remembered something.””I heard from my mother that the opposite door was indeed on fire. I still remember it!”” ”

“””You must be joking!”” The man laughed.””You’re a year younger than me, right?”” ”

“””No, no,”” the woman quickly said.””Of course, I don’t remember the fire, but when I was young, I often went to the villa opposite to play with my friends … ”

“””I can still remember that it was a burnt ruin. Some of us even started a rumor that it was a haunted house or something …”” ”

“””It can’t be?”” The man was shocked once again.””You … Are that bold?”” ”

“””I forgot,”” the woman recalled.””Maybe I was bold when I was young?”” I think … I think it was only renovated after I went to primary school. At first, the house was rented out to many people. It wasn’t until ten years ago that a Japanese man bought the house …”” ”

“””Police officer,”” the man asked cui Lizhu,””you seem to have found the wrong person. What does the fire 30 years ago have to do with us?”” ”

“Cui Lizhu finally realized that this was the woman’s home, and the man might be her son-in-law or someone who married into her family. ”

“””We suspect that the fire is related to an important case that we’ve come into contact with.”” Cui Lizhu ignored the man and said to the woman,””so, I hope you can provide us with some information about the fire that year!”” ”

“””Oh, no problem, no problem …”” The woman quickly said,””please come in!”” My parents should be able to help you. When I was young, I heard them talk about the fire on the opposite door!”” ”

“””Oh … Then your parents …”” Cui Lizhu was about to ask where the woman’s parents were, when she saw the anti-theft door of the villa open, and an old woman walk out. ”

“””Xiao Huang, is this sarin? “”(Who is this?)”” the aunty spoke in a Shanghai dialect. ”

“””Mom, this is a police officer,”” the woman quickly introduced her.””She wants to ask you about the fire that happened at the door across the street!”” ”

“””Aiyo, I’ve handed it over to Chenguang (a long time ago)…”” The woman then said a lot of local dialect, which confused cui Lizhu. ”

“””Come on, officer! “”Let’s talk inside the house …””The woman invited cui Lizhu into the house. ”

“After they put down their things and settled the child, the woman acted as a translator and asked the woman who knew the details to tell them what happened during the fire. ”

“””Yes,”” the woman said.”” 30 years ago, when I gave birth to my boss, I was still in my confinement period! There was a big fire at the door opposite and the fire burned the couple and their children to death! ”

“””The fire started in the middle of the night, and it burned very fast,”” the woman recalled.””By the time we found out, there was no way to rush in and save people! ”

“””We’re waiting for the fire brigade to come. The fire is almost over. The family of four didn’t survive. It’s really tragic …”” ”
