Chapter 150: Death of Fan Zhu
Chapter 150: Death of Fan Zhu
Xiaobai Linlin pressed Liao Hannan to the ground and asked him to explain in detail what happened last night.
Liao Hannan said that two of his gangster friends came to him for a drink, and they wanted to ask him about the situation in the base.
I was startled and asked nervously, "Why, are they coming from outside the base?"
Liao Hannan sighed and explained: These two men had done business with him before. They were both gentle businessmen before. Who knew how they would become as domineering as bloodthirsty maniacs now? He did not dare to offend these two men.
Outside the base were a bunch of murderous thugs, no wonder Fan Rong died so miserably.
After drinking, the two lunatics and Liao Hannan said they would go home early, so they went downstairs to leave. However, they met Fan Rong who came upstairs to complain that they were disturbing the noise and could not sleep.
His house is on the fourth floor and Fan Rong's family lives on the third floor below theirs.
You see, Fan Rong is the same. He still has the courage to go out and quarrel at this time.
Liao Hannan's two friends were attracted by Fan Rong's beauty and dragged her to her house. During the period, Liao Hannan explained that she also wanted to help Fan Rong, but Fan Rong bit one of them named Lao Liu hard, making the man's arm bleed. In desperation, Lao Liu knocked Fan Rong unconscious with a punch, and then the two of them stayed at Fan Rong's house until the early morning before leaving.
Under the pressure of the two men and fearing that they would retaliate against him, Liao Hannan dared not speak out until the two men left. He then went downstairs and saw the tragic death of Fan Rong. He was so scared that he wanted to escape from the crime scene, but then he saw that most of the food in Fan Rong's house had been taken away by the two men, but there was still a lot left, so he had the idea of stealing and moving all the food back to his home. In a hurry, he thought he might have missed something, so when he went downstairs to look at the crime scene again, he ran into me. He wanted to frame me for the murder of Fan Rong, since there were no cameras anyway.
After repeatedly thinking about Liao Hannan's confession, I felt that it was wrong! I kicked Liao Hannan and yelled, "Did you tell those two evil people all the information about the residents of our building?"
Hearing this, the onlookers in the entire building became nervous. The young wife of the young couple on the tenth floor screamed and blurted out, "Is that so? Oh my God, are they going to rob us?"
Liao Hannan quickly denied: "No, they just want to lure me out to do it, and I don't want to go."
"Then why did they drag Fan Rong back? It was because they knew Fan Rong was alone! Isn't that what you said?" I asked back.
"How do I know what they are thinking?" Liao Hannan, a veteran, refused to admit it.
I saw that I didn't want to waste any more words with him, I picked up the phone and said I was going to call the police, who would come and make a decision shortly.
Zhang Hua on the 13th floor had just woken up and had just come down from upstairs after a long time. When she saw the scene at Fan Zhen's house, she couldn't help but scream, "Ahhh my God..." followed by the sound of her vomiting.
I called the Banshan Police Station for a long time but no one answered. I was really discouraged. Given the situation outside, even if I called the police, I didn't think they would be able to come.
At this time, Zhang Hua had almost finished vomiting, so she wanted to call her brother Zhang Dong and ask him to come over to see what was going on.
We were fine with that, at least Zhang Dong was indeed a policeman.
Zhang Dong answered the phone and started chatting with his sister. It turned out that there were several murders and robberies last night. Their police station was bombarded with calls all morning. Many of them were collusion between insiders and outsiders to harm their neighbors, because now the people who know you are the people around you! Because of the unexpected rain, their police station had no available transportation.
Originally, the Mid-Levels Base is located in a mountainous area, and the water level is already high, so normal rain would not be a problem at all. However, who would have known that the continuous heavy rains in the past few days have flooded the Mid-Levels Base and made it difficult to move. Now the government is urgently deploying boats, and there is no police force to handle these cases. In the end, he told his sister to protect herself and lock the door, and then hung up the phone with an intermittent signal.
At this point, we all looked at Liao Hannan with strange eyes. Was he actually a spy?
At this time, Section Chief Hao on the seventh floor could no longer suppress his fear and wanted to expel Liao Hannan. He didn't want to live in the same building with him, fearing that he would continue to bring wolves into the house! Several other families also agreed.
Although Fan Rong died tragically and was our neighbor, it is a bit ridiculous for us to say that we are avenging her as we have no relatives here. However, we will not feel at ease unless we clear ourselves of this matter completely. Even if our 16th floor is tightly sealed and it may not be easy for bad guys to attack in, what should others do?
Thinking of this, I instantly became murderous. If I chased him away, he would definitely become a nuisance, and sooner or later he would come back to avenge us. The best way was to kill him to prevent future troubles!
Lin Lin, Xiao Bai and I discussed together how to deal with Liao Hannan. Lin Lin stood on my side and agreed to get rid of him. Xiao Bai was a little indecisive. Just when we relaxed our vigilance, Liao Hannan stood up and jumped out of the window into the flood downstairs with a "plop". He quickly swam away from our building and escaped...
Although I had a gun in my bag, I was a little hesitant to pull it out and shoot him in front of my neighbor.
The neighbors watched Liao Hannan walk away with mixed feelings that could not be calmed down for a long time...
After a while, Section Chief Hao came to my rescue and asked me where we found the steel plates for the renovation of the 16th floor a few days ago. Did you weld them yourself? Other neighbors also came to my rescue and wanted me to help improve their doors.
They are all afraid that such things will happen again. Now without the protection of the police, who can guarantee that their family will not be the next to be wiped out?
I kept staring at Liao Hannan's back as he swam away. The way he was swimming along the flood downstairs, it was unlikely that he would be able to swim out alive, as the water was deep and there was no means of transportation to carry him. He would soon drown due to exhaustion. Finally, I sighed and felt that I should give him one more stab.
When I looked back again, everyone was still there, waiting for my answer.
I glanced at Fan Rong's door and said, let's do this, since the police are unlikely to come again, we are neighbors after all, so let's dispose of Fan Rong's body. It would be creepy enough to leave it like this, and if water soaks into the third floor, the corpse bacteria will evaporate and easily spread disease.
At this time, no one had any objection. The residents of the entire building were unprecedentedly harmonious and no one acted rashly.
I simply dealt with the corpse, wiped her bloody body with water, gently closed her open eyes with my hands, and then found a decent piece of clothing from her closet to put on her. Only a few of us dared to do this, and we didn't care about the rule of no physical contact between men and women.
Lin Lin and Xiao Bai knocked down the entire bathtub in Fan Rong's house and cleaned it. The young couple on the seventh floor took out a set of artificial flowers that they bought when they got married and spread them on the bottom of the bathtub. Then we picked up Fan Rong's body and placed it in the bathtub. It is really sad and regrettable that such a beautiful person died in this way!
Everyone was silent, bowing their heads in silence, the whole scene was unusually quiet. A few minutes passed, no one spoke, only the sound of heavy breathing echoed in the air.
I pretended to go back home and fetched a bucket of gasoline, then carefully poured it into the bathtub. Every drop of gasoline seemed to be bidding farewell to Fan Rong. I had no choice but to do this, after all, we couldn't let the environment be polluted. In order to give this beautiful woman a proper funeral, I had to choose this way to send her off.
Then, I worked with others to move the bathtub to the flood outside the second-floor window. The flood was raging and the bathtub was shaky in the water, but we managed to put it in place. Next, I took out my lighter and pressed it lightly. The flames instantly jumped up, and the raging fire surrounded the bathtub and Fanzhu tightly.
As the fire grew bigger, the bathtub began to drift slowly. It drifted farther and farther along the water, carrying Fan Jun's body and gradually disappearing from our sight. The burning flames illuminated the entire rainy sky, as if telling of endless sorrow and grief.
We stood there quietly, watching the bathtub go away, watching the flames gradually weaken until they went out and finally disappeared completely.
At this point, Fan Jun completely sank to the bottom of the water, bidding farewell to this world forever. Looking at the calm surface of the water, our hearts became heavier.
After the funeral, we locked the door of Fan Rong's house. There was still a lot of food in Liao Hannan's house, so each family took some of it home.
Next, we discussed how to protect ourselves from foreign robbers.
