"Boom boom boom!"
Explosions sounded continuously. The gangsters were really frantic. Fearing that they were not powerful enough, they placed more than one bomb in the mall. In just ten seconds, the huge Galaxy Center Mall was reduced to ruins.
Fortunately, everyone was evacuated, otherwise, the casualties would have been hundreds, probably more than a thousand.
"Pull out the water pipe, the smoke team is ready!" When Ah Hui notified the headquarters just now, he also notified the fire brigade. Looking at the shopping mall with raging fire, the fire brigade captain who rushed to the scene shouted loudly.
Under his command, well-trained firefighters immediately started fighting the fire.
"A Dong, what should we do next?" Looking at the mall shrouded in flames and thick smoke, Salina looked happy. Fortunately, there was no one inside, otherwise she would have been in trouble.
As for what to do next, it depends on Brother Dong. It’s good to have a man who can take responsibility.
"This was not done by competitors. They didn't dare and didn't have to. It was probably done by people with abnormal minds and no knowledge who wanted to make money." Lei Weidong shook his head and picked up the phone.
"Azhen, it's me, informing Li Ying, Ma Jun, Instructor Hu, Bai Kailun, and Ya Zi that they will not go to the police station tomorrow and will have a meeting at the Eastern Group headquarters. Call Jin Qing as well."
"Yazi, I am Lei Weidong. I am informing the team members to find out in the shortest time who has recently bought a large amount of explosives or the raw materials for making explosives.
Focus on investigating fishermen, fireworks and firecracker factories and other industries, and report to me at the Oriental Group tomorrow. "
"Miss Le, I'm going to trouble you about the TV station. I hope this report will be suppressed. Give me three days. After the case is solved, you can report it as you like."
"You can suppress it, but after solving the case, I want you to give me an exclusive interview." Le Huizhen rolled her big eyes and put forward her own conditions.
"Okay!" Lei Weidong nodded, turned to look at Ami and said:
"Ami, you are the manager of the mall now. You are responsible for personnel placement and cargo compensation, that deputy manager."
"Here, I'm here!" Big Beitou has already recognized that the person in front of him is the legendary chairman, his own bread and butter. Because of his poor performance just now, he has been demoted to deputy manager. If he makes the big boss angry again, he can only Pack up and leave.
"I know where I went wrong."
"I know, I know." After looking at the bank mall that was still burning, the big-backed manager was frightened for a while. Fortunately, the police rang the alarm bell and drove the people out. Otherwise, it would be his fate if he didn't say that the boss wanted to settle a score with him. It's also built inside.
"Assist Ami to do a good job in the aftermath. If you perform well, you will be reinstated as a manager in another shopping mall. If you do not do well, you will pack up and leave."
"Understood, I will definitely assist Manager Zhang and do a good job in the aftermath." Manager Big Beitou nodded and bowed.

"Lin Meng, you are so lucky. No one was injured in yesterday's shopping mall explosion. It is simply a miracle."
An explosion occurred in Central, the busiest area on Hong Kong Island. The explosion hit a shopping mall where people gathered. Although there were no casualties, the nature of the explosion was so vile that it directly alarmed the Hong Kong Governor and the Secretary for Security.
The Police Commissioner received a call from the Governor's Mansion in the middle of the night asking for the case to be solved quickly. So early the next morning the Commissioner led a large group of people to the Central District Police Station and put pressure on Lin Meng and others to solve the case quickly. Solve the case as quickly as possible.
"Uncle Biao, this case is very troublesome!" Lin Meng's head was pounding as he sent the director and others away. In three days, the police station only gave him three days to solve the case.
"If it's not troublesome, we won't leave it to us." Uncle Biao shrugged.
"Then, who do you think is best to hand this case over to?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's you, Director." Uncle Biao pretended to be dumbfounded and deliberately changed the subject.
"Me!" Lin Meng shook his head and said, "Go to the traffic department to call Chen Jiaju back. After staying there for more than a week, I have learned a lesson and can go back to work in the serious crime department."
"If you have something to do with Zhong Wuyan, if nothing happens, Xia Yingchun. If you need him now, call him back. If nothing happens, kick him away. Director, I can't get rid of that face. Moreover, he is impulsive and can easily get into trouble.
If you are not afraid of taking the blame, go find him. "Uncle Biao shook his head, entered his office, and closed the door.
"Uncle Biao!"
Lin Meng could only shake his head and leave as he watched Uncle Biao close the door, looking like he couldn't do anything to me.
"Let me be the bad guy." Looking at the director's figure, the old fox Uncle Biao said with a smile.
------
Eastern Group Headquarters Conference Room!
Lei Weidong sat at the head of the conference table, looked at everyone with a gloomy face, and said:
"I believe everyone knows what happened yesterday. Although the location is in Central, not Wan Chai, Galaxy Tower is my property, which means this is a blatant provocation against me.
If the case cannot be solved before the Central Police Station, not only will my face be beaten, but the Wan Chai Police Station’s face will also be lost. The case must be solved in the shortest possible time.
Salena, has the news been suppressed? "
"The public relations department has already contacted the press and tried to keep a low profile, but it will be troublesome if it comes again later," Salina said.
"How about the damage to the mall? When will the compensation be in place?" Lei Weidong asked again.
"We are working with the insurance company to make statistics. As for the compensation, it will take at least a month." Ami stood up and said.
"Let the insurance company speed up. This is related to the image of our company. We can't be careless." Lei Weidong reminded, turned to look at Meiko and said:
"Yazi, has the information I asked you to check come to fruition?"
"Found it!"
Meiko stood up and replied,
"According to the investigation, there is no abnormality among the fishermen and the firecracker factory, but it is a gangster gangster. There is an explosives dealer named Sanghui who is very active and sells a lot of explosives. It can be said that the most suspicious thing is.
The police station checked him before, but they didn't arrest him because they couldn't find the location of the explosives. Here are his photos, his address, and several places he frequented. "
"Ma Jun, I leave this man named Sang Hui to you. Before noon, I want to know who he sold the explosives to." Lei Weidong took the information, looked at it twice, and threw it to Ma Jun.
If there is no evidence, he cannot be arrested because the police station is afraid of causing trouble and being complained. But is Lei Weidong afraid? If the people in the Complaints Section really dare to trouble Lei Weidong, Lei Weidong can let the huge team of lawyers bring the Complaints Section to an end. , let them also have a taste of being stared at by lawyers.
"Before noon, don't worry, Tou, I will do it." After looking at the information and then looking at the clock on the wall, Ma Jun knew that there were only three hours, and Tou asked him to use some extraordinary means that were not in compliance with the regulations.
However, I like that for a slippery man like Sang Hui, he can only be frightened by means. As for the consequences, there is a plan. As long as he doesn't do bad things or hurt innocent people, he can help himself.
Picking up the materials, Ma Jun left the conference room.
"Miss, we are from the Central District Crime Squad and we have an appointment with Secretary Wang." In the lobby on the first floor, Uncle Biao and Chen Jiaju, who had been reinstated as officers, walked into the Oriental Building and came to the front desk to ask.
Chen Jiaju, who wanted to establish authority at home, could not resist Lin Meng's temptation of promotion and salary increase. With the help of Uncle Biao, he happily returned to the crime team and shouldered the heavy responsibility of solving the case.
"Secretary Wang is waiting for you on the 30th floor." The big-eyed front desk lady put down the phone in her hand and replied.
"Thank you!" Chen Jiaju nodded and went upstairs with Uncle Biao.
"Hold the monitor and don't drop it." Seeing that no one was paying attention, Uncle Biao put the bug in Chen Jiaju's hand.
"Illegal answer, Uncle Biao, this is how the President of the United States stepped down." Looking at the bug in his hand, Chen Jiaju was startled.
"Come on, you guys did a lot of eavesdropping when Lei Weidong was here. He bought this thing." Seeing Chen Jiaju's pretentiousness, Uncle Biao gave him a look.
"Don't just want to eat ready-made food. You must make enough food and clothing by yourself. Don't tell me you can't pretend to be this thing."
"Hey!" Chen Jiaju put the bug in his pocket with some embarrassment.
"puff!"
Maybe it was due to a bad stomach, but in the process of taking the elevator to the 30th floor, Uncle Biao couldn't help but let out a smelly fart.
Suddenly!
It was as if someone had put durian and rotten eggs in the elevator, and everyone couldn't help but cover their noses.
This smells so bad that it is unbearable.
They pressed the door-open button one after another.
After the door opened, everyone filed out and ran to an open area to breathe fresh air.
"Do you have a sense of public morality? You have no manners at all." In order not to be embarrassed, the cunning Uncle Biao directly threw the blame on Chen Jiaju. After a few words, Jiaju was speechless. He couldn't find a chance to refute, so he was directly Uncle Biao pressed the elevator button back.
Fortunately, Chen Jiaju was used to being cheated by Uncle Biao, otherwise he would have had to settle the score with him.
"Secretary Wang, I am Superintendent Dong from the Central District Police Station, and this is Inspector Chen. We have made an appointment with your general manager to discuss matters." On the 30th floor of the building, Uncle Biao and Superintendent Dong met Salina's secretary .
"The general manager is in a meeting, you two will wait a moment." Secretary Wang smiled and invited the two of them to the rest area.
"Ma Jun, why are you here?" Ma Jun happened to come out of the conference room with information, and was seen by the sharp-eyed Chen Jiaju.
"Jiaju, Uncle Biao, Tou asked us to come over for a meeting, so we came." Ma Jun pointed at the meeting, indicating that he had just come out of it.
"Inside, Ma Jun, you mean Wei Dong is having a meeting inside?" Chen Jiaju pointed to the conference room, a little unsure.
"Yeah!" Ma Jun nodded.
"Sir, no!"
As soon as Ma Jun finished nodding, Chen Jiaju ran over and opened the door of the conference room like a gust of wind, scaring Secretary Wang to stop him quickly.
"Salena, Wei Dong, Instructor Hu, Bai Karen, Jian Huizhen, Li Ying, Ya Zi, Zhu Huabiao, why are you Wan Chai Police Department having a meeting here, and why are you also here, A Mei." Looking at a room of acquaintances, Chen Jiaju didn't understand. valley
"I'm the boss of Oriental Group. There's nothing strange here." Looking at Chen Jiaju and Uncle Biao coming in, Lei Weidong waved his hand and signaled Secretary Wang to go out.
"If I had known you were the boss of the Eastern Group, why would I have gone to such trouble?"
Uncle Biao laughed and said, he knew that Lei Weidong was rich and that Lei Weidong opened the Galaxy Mall. But what Uncle Biao didn't expect was that Lei Weidong turned out to be the owner of Galaxy Building and this property belonged to him.
Shrugging, he found a seat and sat down. Uncle Biao asked, "Can you tell me how your investigation went?"
"Such a big explosion must have used a lot of explosives, and according to our investigation, the fishermen used small-power explosives to fry fish, which were not enough to cause such a big explosion.
There are no abnormalities in the explosives factory and the firecracker factory. Only the underworld Laojia is abnormal and has released a large amount of explosives. I have asked Ma Jun to investigate. The results should be available before noon. "
"Jiaju, what's in your pocket? It couldn't be a bug, right?" Lei Weidong laughed as he watched Chen Jiaju subconsciously touch his pocket after sitting down.
"How do you know?" After being caught, Chen Jiaju took out the bug in embarrassment, "It doesn't look like it to me. Did Uncle Biao give it to me, or did you buy it?"
"I did buy it, imported from Beautiful China. As for how I found it, have you seen that device? It's a bug detector." Lei Weidong pointed at a device that looked like a tape recorder not far away.
Said, "It can capture the radio waves emitted by wireless bugs. If there is a bug in the room, it will be discovered immediately. The machine will start to alarm while you are still outside."
"Haha!" Chen Jiaju looked at Uncle Biao, shrugged, spread his hands, and said, Uncle Dong, it's not that I don't want to install a bug, but that Lei Weidong is so powerful that he even has anti-monitoring equipment.
"Mr. Lei, someone called and said they bombed the Galaxy Mall." Secretary Wang's voice suddenly sounded.
"Get in!"
Lei Weidong signaled Meiko to turn on the tracker, and at the same time ordered Secretary Wang to pick up the phone.
"Hello, please speak?" Secretary Wang asked.
"Miss Salena, we bombed the bank and shopping mall. We want 10 million if you don't pay!" With a bang, Lei Weidong hung up the phone.
"Can you track it?" Lei Weidong asked.
"It takes at least three minutes!" Meiko made a gesture.
"I'll buy you time." Lei Weidong nodded.
At the same time, the polar bear in the phone booth looked at the dead microphone and was a little dazed. Why did the other party hang up the phone before he finished speaking.
Just dial again.
"Hello, who is that?" Lei Weidong asked.
Why is it a man? The polar bear in the phone booth took a look at the phone book. Yes, it was a phone number from the Eastern Group.
"Is Miss Salena here?" Polar Bear asked.
"Salena is not here. I am her husband Lei Weidong, the chairman of Dongfang Group. If you have anything to say, feel free to tell me."
"Mr. Lei, why did you hang up on me just now?"
"You charge me 10 million for a phone call. You think I'm an idiot."
"But I blew up your bank and shopping mall. If you don't give it, I will continue to blow up." Polar Bear Lin Guowei threatened.
"Fuck, how do I know if you bombed it? I have received seven or eight extortion calls like yours today. Each one said that they bombed it themselves, and then asked me to pay. If not, they would continue to bomb my industry. .
It's just that those people are not as evil as you. They only ask for hundreds of thousands, and at most one of them only wants two million. If you are evil, just ask for ten million, bye! "
Lei Weidong banged the phone and hung up the phone again.
"Hang up the phone again!" Hearing the busy tone from the phone, the polar bear was stunned.
But from what Lei Weidong said just now, it seemed like someone was pretending to be them and making extortion calls. Who could be so wicked that he even dared to cut off his own money?
"If you hang up the phone again, I will blow up your office right now." When the phone was connected again, the polar bear roared.
"Sir, was it really you who blew it up?" Perhaps the polar bear's roar had an effect, and Lei Weidong's tone softened a lot.
"Of course I blew it up. The people in front of them were all pretending to be me. Did you give them the money?" Hearing that Lei Weidong relented, the polar bear became less angry. If he had known this would work, his tone should have been harsher.
"I'm not an idiot, and the money is not scraped. How can I just give it to you? My brain is rusty. Of course I need evidence. Sir, how can you prove that you bombed the Galaxy Mall?"
"Why am I calling you if I didn't blow it up?"
"What happened last night was so big that almost everyone in Xiangjiang knows about it. This is because no one died. If hundreds or thousands died, let alone Xiangjiang, the whole world would know about it.
By then, scammers from all over the world will be calling, and I will be so busy that I won’t even have time to answer the phone. Lei Weidong said helplessly.
"Because there are so many extortion calls, we can't determine who did it at all. We can only ask for evidence. Only with evidence can we confirm that it was you who bombed it."
"I don't have any evidence, me!" When Lei Weidong asked for evidence, Polar Bear realized that there seemed to be no evidence to prove that he bombed the Galaxy Mall.
"Sir, why don't you speak." Hearing the silence on the other end of the phone, Lei Weidong took the initiative to pick up the topic,
"If you ask me, the person who planted the bomb is sick and has a short-circuited brain before he bombs the shopping mall. Not to mention that it is easy to cause trouble. What's even more troublesome is that there is no way to prove yourself unless you bomb again!"
"Blow it up again." The polar bear's brain was a little short-circuited. He wondered if he dialed the wrong number and dialed a mental hospital. Why did the other party take the initiative to let him blow up again, or blow up his own property?
"Yes, only in this way can we prove that it was the Galaxy Mall you bombed and not the fraudsters who took advantage of the explosion.
Explosion extortion is different from a kidnapping case. In a kidnapping case, the victim's voice can be played, or the victim's fingers, toes and clothing can be given to prove that the hostage is in one's hands.
You can hand over money with one hand and release the person with the other, and you can also threaten the victim not to call the police. It is much easier than bombing a shopping mall to ask for money. "
"Did you call the police?"
"I didn't call the police, but if the police didn't know about this, the sun came out from the west, and the impact of bombing the shopping mall would have been too great. Not only the police and fire departments, but also the Political Department sent people here last night.
They once suspected that this was a terrorist attack and were carried out by terrorists, and they wanted to intervene in the investigation. "
"Political Department, terrorist attack!" Lei Weidong's words made the polar bear's back shiver.
He is also dealing with the police. The Political Department has only been seen in movies. The legendary ace agent 007 is a member of the Political Department and is targeted by such a department.
The polar bear thinks it's too reckless to blow up the mall.
I originally thought that the mall would be blown up. I asked their boss for money. I didn’t just ask for as much as I wanted. I had to give them 10 million or 20 million. Now it seems that it’s a headache to prove myself, and they still treat the Political Department like this. The big boss was provoked.
No wonder there are no such plots in movies or TV. He is the first of his kind. If he had known how troublesome it would be, it would be better to kidnap a rich man to make money quickly. "
"Sir, you're not thinking of kidnapping for ransom, are you?" Lei Weidong asked when he heard the phone went silent again.
"Why, can't you? Just wait, I'll tie you up in a minute." The polar bear threatened.
"You are welcome to come. I have eighteen bodyguards by my side. As long as you are not afraid of bullets, just come." Lei Weidong said, "Kidnapping is also a science. The first choice target must be chosen well, and the rich man cannot be kidnapped."
"Why, aren't you kidnapping the richest one?"
"Who will give you money if you kidnap a rich man? His son or his wife. Don't forget that promotion and wealth are the three greatest blessings for an official. Death of his wife and death of his husband are also blessings for a rich man, because he can monopolize the other half and his son. Not to mention, there are many princes who want to ascend to the throne.
If you want to kidnap, you can only help the rich man's son, not his wife. Hey, I have told you so much about what to do, but I am digressing. You should still think about how to prove that you bombed the bank and shopping mall. "
Seeing the note indicating from Meazi, Lei Weidong knew that he had found the other party's location and signaled to proceed as planned.
"How to prove it, it will really explode again."
"My enemy, you also need to leave your name, and then choose a time, place, preferably a shopping mall. Tell us your name when you notify us to evacuate the crowd. This way, after the bomb goes off, we can prove that you did it."
"It's really troublesome. A shopping mall is worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. To prove it, you would rather us blow up another one than pay you." Polar Bear was a little confused about Lei Weidong's thoughts.
"This is the only way to prove it. In fact, I have no losses. The insurance company will be responsible for the financial losses. If the mall that was bombed is old and dilapidated and needs to be renovated, thanks to you, I still made a profit."
Lei Weidong leaned on the boss's chair and continued to stall for time.
"Blow it up, if you want to blow it up, blow it up a few times. The Galaxy shopping malls I bought in Wan Chai and the Western District are old shopping malls that I just bought some time ago. They have been built for more than 20 years and are already dilapidated and cannot keep up with the times.
I've wanted to dismantle and reinstall it for a long time, but it was a bit expensive so I didn't dismantle it. Why don't you blow it up and I can still earn an insurance premium? "
"Isn't this insurance fraud?" Chen Jiaju couldn't help but remind him.
Not to mention polar bears, even Chen Jiaju and Uncle Biao felt that Lei Weidong was a bit shameless and even thought of letting him work part-time. This may be the reason for Lei Weidong's success.
Shameless and skinless, as long as money is the basis of success for capitalists, Chen Jiaju is often cheated by Uncle Biao because of his thin skin.
"Is there anyone over there?" the polar bear asked.
"Of course there are people, and there are quite a lot of them. You called in while we were having a meeting." Lei Weidong's lie came out of his mouth, "I want to make it clear that this is not insurance fraud.
The insurance fraud was that I hired people to blow up the shopping mall to defraud the insurance money, and you bombed the shopping mall on your own initiative. I don’t know you, so I just asked you to ask for evidence to prove that it was the robber who bombed my shopping mall. Strictly speaking, I was the victim. By. "
"I'm crazy to listen to you." The polar bear was stunned by Lei Weidong's shamelessness. He didn't want to agree to Lei Weidong's conditions, but he thought about the colorful banknotes.
"Wait for my call and I'll tell you after I select the target. Remember, next time it won't be a matter of 10 million. Don't even think about 50 million less."
"Fifty million, you are dreaming. Believe it or not, if I let loose on the road, there will be countless people to kill you if there is five million. The maximum is three million for one room. If you blow up two rooms, six million or even one cent more will not do."
"You're cruel!" The polar bear hung up the phone angrily.
