Chapter 540 The Truth about the Fire
The next day, the heads of several major families arrived at the scene on time.
Before starting, Fu Cheng also asked Fu Yexing
"You coming?"
"No, I'm coaxing the child."
Fu Yexing refused simply
"This is your wife's business, and your own business"
"Didn't you say that I'll leave all my affairs to you?"
"When did I say that?"
Fu Yexing shrugged
"You said it anyway"
Fu Yexing walked out the door and picked up Lin Yahui who was squatting by the door.
"Baby, shall we go in and sit down or lie down in the corner by the door together?"
"Get down in the corner!"
Fu Yexing smiled helplessly, holding her and sitting with several children.
"Then everyone be quiet and listen."
"Why can Burns go in and sit in?"
“Maybe he really knows something.”
The way the heads of the families sat was also very interesting. Mr. Si and Qi Fengyi sat together, and the other heads of the families sat on the other side.
Fu Cheng stood on the podium, looking like a teacher
"Everyone, the main reason we are here today is to resolve the fire that happened 20 years ago."
"Hmph, what's there to say?"
Park Soo-young snorted
"It seems that Master Park is angry, so why don't you tell us what happened?"
Park Soo-young stood up
"That night 20 years ago, I was resting in my room when suddenly someone shouted that our warehouse was on fire."
"I ran out to see that half of our warehouse was burned down."
"Then the fire started to spread to other warehouses, and the fire got bigger and bigger. No one could do anything about it, so they just jumped into the sea."
"Those who didn't have time to escape were burned to death"
"This was all done by the Si family!"
Park Xiurong said angrily and sat down angrily.
Fu Cheng wrote a few key words on the blackboard
"Does anyone else have anything to add?"
"The fire was very big at the time. It seemed to have started with the Si family, but then, for some reason, almost all the houses caught fire at the same time."
Li Suyan added
"You said that other families were at the same time?"
“I don’t remember exactly, but the time should be about the same.”
"Is there anything else you want to add? For example... why do you suspect that it was done by the Si family?"
Pu Ling stood up and added
“Because they were the only family with no casualties.”
Hearing this, Mr. Si lowered his head, as if he remembered something.
"Anything else? If not, Mr. Si, it's your turn to speak."
Mr. Si stood up
"The fire did start from the Si family"
"At that time, our family was having dinner together and we saw a sudden light outside. Our second child said that the warehouse outside was on fire and asked everyone to go and put out the fire quickly."
"So our whole family went out together, but later we found that the fire was too big to be put out, so we shouted to each other to jump into the sea."
"It's not like there were no casualties in the Si family."
"The second son's son never came out."
"We were able to avoid it because we acted early. Besides, didn't we call out to you when we were running?"
"Besides, why should we burn our own warehouses? Why should we burn your warehouses? The Si family has seven warehouses in total, and four of them were burned. What good is this for us?"
Mr. Si asked in a deep voice, but no one answered.
What Mr. Si said was indeed true. When the Si family ran away, they did call people from other families to join them. It was just that it was too chaotic at the time and everyone forgot about it.
Fu Cheng wrote on the blackboard
“Is there anything else you would like to add?”
"That's all, that should be it."
"Then let's talk about what happened next."
"after……"
Mr. Si sighed
"After that, they massacred the Si family"
“After that, it became like this.”
