Wolong Mountain, Wolong Temple.
A huge explosion reduced the main hall of Wolong Temple to rubble, a blazing fire reduced everything to ashes and a heavy rain extinguished the blaze.
The thousands of years old temple was destroyed and set on fire, leaving the scene in shambles.
This major incident, which shocked both at home and abroad, aroused the great attention of the Yanjing Municipal Party Committee, the municipal government, as well as the State Administration of Cultural Heritage and other relevant departments.
Secretary Zhou of the municipal party committee personally led a team to deal with the scene.
Dozens of police cars hurriedly arrived from Yanjing City and parked at Wolong Mountain Resort. The area around Wolong Temple was filled with local people and public security personnel, firefighters and armed police soldiers who came to deal with the scene of the accident.
A dozen excavators, forklifts and loaders have also been transferred from the nearest construction units to search around the main hall to see if there are any people crushed in the rubble.
However, after a long search, no one was found, except for the bullet-riddled body of a clutching Mao, which had been blown up beyond recognition.
Instead, a number of dead people, all monks and staff of the temple, were found in a room in the backyard and, moreover, these people had already been killed when the main hall exploded.
“These murderers are too cruel,” Secretary Zhou then issued an order to Xiao Wenbin, the head of the city’s Public Security Bureau, who had followed them, saying, “All forces must be organised to get to the bottom of this incident!”
Chief Xiao a*sured him, “Please rest a*sured, Secretary Zhou, I will definitely order the police officers to do their utmost to catch this group of vicious criminals, as well as their handlers behind the scene!”
……
Yanjing City, Jiang Family Compound.
After resuming normal business, business was booming as usual, with a high number of people and a lively atmosphere.
A few men arrived at the entrance of the hotel talking and laughing.
The welcoming lady hurriedly greeted them.
A tall, strong, dark-skinned young man in light grey casual clothes scanned the dining hall and said.
“Call your boss’s wife and arrange the most luxurious elegant room for us.”
“Yes,” said the welcoming lady, after offering a professional smile to the man, extending her hand in an inviting gesture, “Sir, please follow me!”
Then, with a light stride, she walked ahead and led the way.
Several men followed Miss Welcome through the dining hall to a luxurious elegant room.
This private room was large enough and luxurious enough, and the luxurious facilities inside the room were even more breathtaking: the
Bright floor-to-ceiling gla*s windows, thick red carpets, antique round pearwood dining tables and stools, elegant yellow leather sofas and crystal gla*s coffee tables.
One look at these furnishings tells you that they are worth a lot of money.
The impression of the entire private room is one of atmosphere without losing elegance, and coupled with the soothing and relaxing music, it gives people a sense of tranquility and clarity.
This private room is a place used by the Jiang family compound to receive top VIPs, and non-special people are not qualified to enter this room.
The welcoming lady knew the young man in the lead.
He was Dong Jun, the former Yanjing Military Region Police Company Commander, who often brought people here to dine with his cousin Yan Dabao, and, every time, asked to use this room.
The owner, Jiang Mei, knew that these guys were masters who could not afford to be offended, so she met their requests every time, and even went to the private room to accompany the drinks herself.
Last time, after Lin Kai had injured Yan Dabao because of Song Lina, Yan Dabao had never come back, and Dong Jun’s appearance still came as a bit of a surprise to the welcoming lady.
After arranging for the three to be seated, the waiter handed over the drinks list.
After Dong Jun ordered a dozen high-cla*s dishes in one breath and two more bottles of Guizhou Maotai, he saw that the welcome lady was still standing in the booth, so he said to her.
“Beauty, go and get your boss’s wife.”
Knowing Jiang Mei’s drinking capacity, Dong Jun wanted the welcome lady to go and call her over to cheer her up.
“Okay, I’ll go and call her over now.” The welcome lady was not in a position to ask more questions, so she answered and left the private room.
When Jiang Mei heard that Yan Dabao’s cousin had come to the restaurant, she mistook him for her cousin’s beating and came to ask her for help.
However, in line with the principle of “customer is God”, she went to the door of the VIP room, knocked gently on the door, pushed the door in and saw Dong Jun and two strange men sitting inside, so she walked over to them with a smile.
“So it’s a distinguished guest, sorry to have missed you!” Jiang Mei came to Dong Jun and, with a professional smile, asked, “Mr. Dong, you’re looking for me?”
“Yes,” Dong Jun pointed to the two middle-aged men sitting to his left and right respectively and introduced them, “This is Director Li, and this is Director Ma ……”
“Good day Director Li, good day Director Ma, welcome to Jiang’s compound, if there is anything you are not satisfied with, please enlighten me!” Jiang Mei said as she bowed to the two.
Even though she didn’t know what exactly these two bird Chiefs did, but a character who could sit with Dong Jun must be of some importance, and she didn’t dare to be negligent at all.
At this time, a group of waiters pushed in the door and, after greeting Jiang Mei, the boss’s wife, set the dishes Dong Jun had ordered, as well as two bottles of Maotai wine, on the table.
Pointing to the table full of food, Dong Jun said to Jiang Mei, “Just now, I asked the welcome lady to call you here, mainly because I want to invite her to come and drink with these two leaders of mine, so you have to drink a few more gla*ses with them?”
“Respectfully,” Jiang Mei said with a smile, knowing that she could not shirk, “However, my alcohol consumption is limited, so I hope the leaders will bear with me.”
Director Ma, who was sitting on Dong Jun’s right, said with a smile, “It is said that women come with three points of wine, I see that you speak so boldly and are so pretty, you must drink a lot ……”
This person was around forty years old, of medium build, with a sturdy body, currently the Director of the Yanjing Military Region’s Inspection Division, this morning, on the order of Yanjing Military Region’s Vice Commander Wang, went to investigate Lin Kai, before being dragged here with Director Li of the Military Intelligence Division by Dong Jun to discuss countermeasures.
“Director Ma, I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you,” Jiang Mei said in a delicate voice, “but it’s an honour for me to drink with you heavyweights, I’ll go out of my way to have a few more drinks with you at noon today, when the time comes, you’ll have to be considerate and bring someone to look after my little sister’s business, yo? ”
“Of course,” Director Ma smiled brightly, pointed to an empty seat beside him and said, “What a sharp-tongued hotel owner’s wife, I like your kind of character, please sit down!”
“Okay.” Jiang Mei took the wine bottle from a waiter standing by the table and personally filled the three cups in front of the three men, then poured one for herself, lifted her gla*s and said, “Come, I’ll drink to everyone first!”
After saying this, he drank all the wine in his gla*s in one gulp.
The three men were all from military backgrounds, so naturally they were not willing to lag behind, and they drank it all in one go and toasted to Jiang Mei.
After a few gla*ses of wine, Jiang Mei’s face was already full of red haze.
“No, I can’t, I can’t drink any more!” Jiang Mei made a very uncomfortable look, stood up and said, “Several leaders, you guys take your time and drink, my head is a bit dizzy, excuse me first, have to go to the bathroom ……”
Jiang Mei knew that these guys did not simply come here to drink, there must be something to discuss, so she excused herself to go to the bathroom.
“Everyone don’t drink so much, it’s important to talk about business!” Jiang Mei had just walked out of the room and closed the door for them when she heard the voice of Commissioner Li speaking.
This guy acted very cautiously, rarely speaking during the process of clinking gla*ses and drinking with Jiang Mei, afraid of revealing his identity.
