89 The GAO family manor
On the streets of xinchuan city, the tanks and armored vehicles painted in gray and green were quite eye-catching.
At the key points of the bridges, they could still see sandbags, barbed wire, and triangle iron fortifications. Some soldiers were building permanent blockhouses and defense facilities on the streets.
Garbage trucks, trucks, excavators, and cranes were cleaning up the ruins on the street. The order of the entire city had been restored compared to yesterday, but the tense atmosphere was still present.
At the entrance of the bank, there were long lines at the material distribution point and the recruitment point.
Soldiers and staff members with the red armband of the military management Committee could be seen everywhere on the street.
The area within a square kilometer of the two permanent spatial rifts in the center of xinchuan city and the southwest had become a military restricted area. The residents who originally lived nearby had all moved away. The engineering troops of the 87th Division had already surrounded the two places and were working overtime to build permanent fortifications and various military facilities to surround the two permanent spatial rifts.
In the entire city, military vehicles transporting quick-drying cement and various military supplies were lined up to drive to the two restricted military zones.
The residents living near the Forbidden Zone were also trying to find a way to move.
according to the wartime act, Xuanji military control Committee expropriated the empty houses in this city and distributed them to the citizens who lost their homes in the natural disasters. Many people who wanted to rent houses can now live in them for free. Therefore, the order in the city was restored relatively quickly. Food is free for each person, once a week. There’s already a limit to the amount of cash that can be used, Xuanji!
“We’re going to build permanent fortifications in the city too?”
yes, the permanent structures in the city will be very useful in the face of a dimensional invasion. It’s better than nothing, and can greatly reduce the casualties of our soldiers!
In the military vehicle, staff officer Guo, who was driving, saw Xia Pingan’s gaze on the situation on the road outside. He took the initiative to introduce the situation of the city to Xia Pingan, ” by the way, I haven’t introduced myself. My name is Guo Wei, the staff officer of the 87th Division. Speaking of which, we’re from the same hometown. I’m also from Xiang He!
nice to meet you. Since we’re from the same hometown, I’ll be looking forward to your guidance in the future, advisor Guo! Xia Pingan said to Guo can with a smile.
Staff officer Guo’s eyes behind his round glasses were exceptionally bright. He smiled very gently, ” you’re welcome. In the 87th Division, staff officers like me are everywhere. In the Army, staff officers don’t have a leader. I just follow the regimental commander and run errands for the division. I’m just the human briefcase of the regimental commander, Yingluo.
Xia Pingan knew that staff officer Guo was being modest. The military was full of talents, and those who could work for Tang Guofeng would not be mediocre.
The two of them chatted in the car. In just over 20 minutes, they had passed through half of xinchuan city and arrived at the GAO family’s Manor in the South City.
The GAO family’s Manor was located on a mountain in the South City. The private Manor covered more than 200 acres. From a distance, one could only see a white modern building complex hidden in the shade of the trees, which seemed a little mysterious.
The Gaos ‘Manor was surrounded by beautiful scenery. It was the best residential area in the entire xinchuan city. The people who lived nearby were either rich or noble. There were private villas and manors nearby.
On the 15th night, the nearest meteorite landed more than 1600 meters away from the GAO family manor, so it was not affected much.
On the road outside the manor, there were more than a dozen police cars parked. The nearby gas station was in a mess and had signs of a fire. The police had already cordoned off the area outside the manor, and many police officers were busy there.
The moment Xia Pingan and Guo Wei got off the military vehicle, a fat middle-aged man in a class one police uniform walked towards them.
Hello, I’m xu Zheng, the Bureau chief of the xinchuan City Police station, ” the middle-aged Police Bureau chief introduced himself and shook hands with Xia ping ‘an and Guo Wei. His attitude was also very humble. I’m very sorry to have caused trouble for President Tang. It’s just that this matter is too tricky. The identity of the deceased is not an ordinary person, so we have no choice but to report it to the military administration and ask President Tang to send someone to assist in the investigation!
Hello, director Xu. My name is Guo Wei. This is Mr. Xia Pingan, the priest of our 87th Division. Chairman Tang has asked Mr. Xia Pingan to come here to assist you in the investigation to determine if there are any Summoners and members of the Demon’s Eye participating in the investigation, ” Guo Wei introduced Xia Pingan to the director of the xinchuan police station and put himself in the role of an assistant.
After hearing Guo Wei introduce Xia Pingan as the 87th Division’s priest, director Xu and the surrounding policemen looked at Xia Pingan in surprise.
The role of the Army’s priest was not necessarily the most powerful among the summoners, but it was definitely the most respected. It was not only the Army that needed the soul soothing armor, but Xia Pingan was also too young.
Xu Zheng’s attitude towards Xia ping ‘an was very polite. He directly led Xia ping’ an and Guo Wei into the GAO family’s Manor and personally introduced the case to them.
According to Xu Zheng’s introduction, these family members of the GAO family had taken refuge in the fallout shelter in the GAO family’s Manor a few days ago. They had just come out of the fallout shelter two days ago, but just last night, seven people of the GAO family were brutally killed in a conference room in the manor.
The Gaos ‘Manor exuded an exquisite and luxurious atmosphere. There was a garage next to the fountain at the entrance of the manor, and there were more than 20 luxury cars parked in the garage.
After entering the manor, they could see some police officers interrogating the servants and bodyguards in the GAO family’s Manor.
There were police officers investigating the scene everywhere. In the forest and on the grass of the manor, many police tape had been set up.
The chairman of the Yizhou Provincial Parliament had been killed, and so many people in the family had died. If this had happened half a month ago, it would have been a shocking case that would have shaken the entire Yizhou province and the country of fire. Even if the situation was tense now, the impact of this case was not small in Yizhou province. The GAO family was also one of the wealthy families in Yizhou province. No one had expected that they would encounter such a huge change in one day.
Even the chief of xinchuan city’s police department had come in person.
I saw that there were quite a number of bodyguards and servants in the GAO family manor. Other than the seven people from the GAO family, were there any other victims in the manor? ” Guo Wei asked as they entered the manor.
other than the seven people from the GAO family, there were no other victims in the entire Manor. The bodyguards in the manor only discovered the abnormality this morning and then reported it to the police, ran ran.
“Where are the other members of the Gaos?”
the other members of the GAO family are just a few women, children, and a special Summoner bodyguard. They also stayed in the GAO family’s Manor last night, but they were all fine and unaffected. It seems that the murderer’s target is very clear.
“Did the summoner bodyguard notice anything unusual?”
“No, the GAO family’s Summoner bodyguard also lit a Heart Lamp and meditated in his bedroom last night. According to him, the heart Lamp didn’t move all night, and he didn’t notice anything unusual. We can’t verify whether he lit it or not. I suspect that he might be lying to shirk responsibility, so I asked the summoner to come here and take a look at Yingying.”
there’s a surveillance camera in the GAO family’s Manor. Did the surveillance camera find anything? ”
before the incident, there was a big fire and a small explosion at the gas station outside the GAO family’s Manor. At the time of the explosion, the power generator room of the GAO family seemed to have been affected, and there was a power failure. The power was cut for more than 20 minutes, and after the power failure, the monitoring system couldn’t work.
From the time of death of the GAO family members, we suspect that the murderer sneaked into the meeting room at this time. The GAO family’s bodyguards also said that when the gas station was on fire outside, the GAO family members came out of the meeting room to understand the situation, then returned to the meeting room. After that, no one came out again, Yingluo!”
it’s been quite a while since last night. Why did you only notice the abnormality this morning? ” Xia Pingan also asked with a serious expression.
“Ahem, ahem, we’ve asked the bodyguards and servants of the Gaos. There’s a rule in the Gaos. When the members of the Gaos are having a meeting or discussing something in the conference room, outsiders are not allowed to enter the conference room without permission. They’re not even allowed to approach the floor and the aisle of the conference room. Additionally, the conference room is very soundproof. Even if there’s a sound inside, the outside won’t be able to hear it.
That’s why the GAO family’s bodyguards and Summoners didn’t know what happened in the meeting room last night. This morning, seeing that no one came out of the meeting room, the GAO family’s woman went in to take a look and found out that the people inside had been killed. That’s why she reported the case.”
Xu Zheng explained.
As they were talking, they had already arrived in front of a large house of the GAO family.
Through the floor-to-ceiling window outside the house, Zhang tie could see five women and seven or eight kids and teenagers in the living room of the GAO family’s mansion, whose ages ranged from four to fifteen years old. They were crying miserably and at a loss. Several policemen were recording something in the living room.
When those women cried, they were quarreling about something. A slightly fat woman at her 40s in blue longuette was pointing at another woman and swearing her. At the same time, a 15 – 16 year old boy suddenly rushed forward and pushed that woman to the ground.
Another teenager, who was about 13 or 14 years old, saw this and picked up a vase in the room to smash it at the teenager who pushed him. The vase fell to the ground and shattered.
The room was filled with shouts and yells, and it became chaotic all of a sudden.
The other people in the house and the police quickly went to pull her back.
Outside the house, one could vaguely hear the contents of the argument in the house. It was related to the company’s shares, stock, bank deposits, and so on.
the Gaos mainly have a coal mining company, two trading companies, a hotel chain and a real estate company, as well as many other investment projects. The Gaos have a lot of assets. All the men who can manage the family are dead, and they didn’t leave any wills behind. What’s left in the Gaos are a few women, daughter-in-law, and some children who haven’t grown up yet. Xu Zheng shook his head helplessly.
Guo Wei glanced at the house and shook his head slightly. it seems like we’ll have to fight this inheritance lawsuit in the future!
