Reborn in the 60s, starting with going to the mountains and countryside
Chapter 996: Messy
Ye Hao feels more at ease knowing that Minhua and others are in Myanmar.
At present, Ye Hao is of no use here. Ye Hao plans to return to Hong Kong Island to see what the situation is on Wayne's side.
Ye Hao arrived in Hong Kong Island and went straight to the dock warehouse.
It has been several days since he last came to collect Chinese medicinal materials. I believe the investigators arranged by Paul Alex have already arrived.
Arriving at the dock warehouse, Ye Hao saw the people from Lone Wolf Security from afar.
The uniform uniform and tall stature make [Lone Wolf Security] particularly eye-catching here.
In addition to the people from Lone Wolf Security, there were many other people gathered at the warehouse.
Among these people were managers of the dock warehouse and people from nearby who came to watch the fun.
At the innermost part, Ye Hao saw Wayne and several white people.
I guess these white people were arranged by Paul Alex.
"Mr. Fowles, how is it going? Did you gain anything?"
As soon as Ye Hao approached, he heard Wayne questioning a middle-aged man among several white people.
"Mr. Wayne, from what we can see so far, the fire did start from the inside. We can also rule out fires caused by aging lines and short circuits..."
The middle-aged white man Fowles adjusted his glasses and spoke.
Fowles was the detective sent by Paul Aries to investigate the fire.
Fowles had a great reputation in the United States, and Paul Alex paid a lot of money to hire him in order to find out the real cause of the fire.
"Mr. Fowles, if the fire was not caused by an aging short circuit, then it is impossible that the things in the warehouse caught fire by themselves..."
“According to my investigation, the fire was probably man-made.
Someone set something on fire inside the warehouse, then closed and locked the door and evacuated...”
Wayne hasn't had a good rest these days. He has been thinking about the cause of the fire and how to deal with it.
At first he didn't associate himself with it.
But then he suddenly thought of a very important point, that is, if he was finally suspected of doing it, how would he prove his innocence.
After all, he knew best the value of the things in the warehouse, and he happened to have the key to the warehouse. What if Paul Alex thought that he was greedy for money and robbed the warehouse?
Once this thought arises, it will never go away.
Wayne has been anxious about this matter these days.
He finally waited for the investigators arranged by Uncle Ball to come, and fantasized that the other party would be able to find some clues to get rid of his suspicion, but he heard something.
The other party actually said that someone deliberately set fire inside the warehouse.
If Wayne was an outsider, the first person he would suspect after hearing this would be him.
After all, he had a motive for committing the crime, and he knew very well the value of the things in the warehouse. If he was really tempted by the money, he would most likely switch the things inside and then set fire to destroy the evidence.
Secondly, he had the conditions to commit the crime.
The warehouse door is usually locked, and only Wayne has the key to the door. Even the warehouse management does not have the key to this warehouse, because when Wayne rented this warehouse, Wayne had the lock changed.
Now he is the only one who has the key to this warehouse.
Besides, he has time to work at night.
Although he went to the nightclub to experience life that day, it is hard to say whether anyone will testify for him. After all, he is an American, and people in Hong Kong think that foreigners all look the same.
Putting all the suspicions together, if Wayne hadn't been sure that this matter had nothing to do with him, he would have suspected that he did it.
Just as Wayne's mind was working frantically, the warehouse manager looked at Wayne.
He now also suspects that Wayne was responsible.
First of all, they didn't contact Wayne that night and he was not at his residence, so they had time to take action.
Secondly, he was the only one who had the key to the warehouse.
Another point is that on the morning of the second day after the incident, the other party came and demanded that their warehouse management compensate for the losses.
Putting all these signs together, the warehouse management had to suspect that this was a self-directed show by the other party, whose purpose was to extort money from them.
Wayne's face changed immediately when the warehouse management looked at him like this.
He saw contempt in the other person's eyes. He was very familiar with this look. After all, he used to look at others with this look.
Now someone actually dares to look at me with such eyes, how can I tolerate this?
"Damn you, you yellow monkey, what do you mean by that? I'm telling you, I'm going to sue you in court for this matter. It's you who failed to manage the warehouse properly, causing us to lose millions of dollars..."
At this time, Wayne still did not forget to pass the blame.
"Mr. Wayne, I think you have forgotten what I told you before. The contract we signed is only for the right to use the warehouse. As for any accidents that occur during your use, we are not responsible at all..."
The warehouse managers were stunned by Wayne's shameless behavior.
In his entire life, apart from the Japanese, he had never seen anyone more shameless than Wayne.
"The fire occurred in your warehouse. It was caused by your improper management. As the warehouse manager, you should be held responsible for this..."
Wayne’s main focus now is to be unreasonable. Only by shifting the blame can he be safe.
"Mr. Wayne, I think you are mistaken. This is Hong Kong Island. We abide by the laws of Hong Kong Island. According to the laws of Hong Kong Island, it is impossible for us, the warehouse management, to compensate you for this situation.
Now is not the time for you to ask us for compensation. Instead, we are asking you for compensation because an accident occurred during your rental of the warehouse, causing a fire that burned many parts of the warehouse. We will calculate this, and once the calculation is completed, you will need to compensate for this..."
The warehouse management has not been doing nothing these days. They have consulted the big boss behind the scenes.
The boss’s meaning was very clear, don’t worry about the other party, this is Hong Kong Island, everything should be done according to Hong Kong Island’s rules.
"You are blackmailing us. The fire was caused by your mismanagement. Now you want us to compensate you. Are you dreaming..."
Wayne knew very well that the other party was right, but the matter was so serious that he couldn't admit that it was his fault, and he had to find someone to take the blame.
"Mr. Wayne, since you are like this, we can only meet in court. We will sue you. I believe that the court of Hong Kong Island will give us a fair explanation..."
The warehouse manager didn't want to argue with Wayne at this moment. This guy was simply unreasonable.
