"Secondly, the power and water outages were very planned. Although Chen Mo works in a hotel and is familiar with these operations, his logical thinking during the arson was ticulous. It doesn’t seem like a spur-of-the-mont act of revenge."
Li Hao paused slightly as he reached this point, seemingly waiting for Mu Anhan to speak.
Mu Anhan simply nodded, not interrupting his line of thought, and gestured for him to continue.
"Thirdly, the fire departnt has already released the investigation results. The presidential suite on the top floor was the most severely damaged. He confessed his hatred for people with power and influence, but why did he also set fires in guest rooms on other floors?"
"Mrs. Gu, these are the three doubts I’ve thought of," Li Hao said respectfully.
"Tong Tong, put aside your personal feelings. Do you have anything to add?" Mu Anhan looked at her.
Xue Xiangtong thought for a mont: "If Chen Mo says that revenge against society is just a guise, his real motive might be to amass wealth. If soone incited him to do this and provided funds to treat his son, he would do it without hesitation. But there’s no evidence to support this motive!"
Li Hao nodded in agreent: "We checked all the bank accounts under the father and son’s nas, and no money was deposited. We even searched the house thoroughly, but found no trace of cash."
"What about his ex-wife?" Mu Anhan asked.
Li Hao and Xue Xiangtong exchanged a glance, and Li Hao said: "We haven’t checked. I’m thinking they’ve probably turned against each other; how could he give money to his ex-wife?"
"Captain Li, do you have any children?" Mu Anhan stared at him.
"No."
Mu Anhan nodded, "Go check his ex-wife! See if there’s anything there."
"Yes!" Li Hao imdiately prepared to leave.
Xue Xiangtong stopped him: "Captain Li, I’m going too!"
Li Hao was a bit surprised: "You’re not staying with Mrs. Gu?"
"No need." Xue Xiangtong winked at her: "Han Han, I’m not staying with you."
"I’ll also go check on his ex-wife!" Mu Anhan walked over briskly.
Xue Xiangtong linked her arm with hers: "Look at you, not acting like Mrs. Gu, and you’re working at the grassroots level with us. You really don’t have a life of enjoynt!"
"Mrs. Gu also needs to work hard and be down-to-earth, right?" Mu Anhan poked her on the forehead.
They found Chen Mo’s ex-wife Yang Zhi at a kindergarten. As it was noon dismissal ti, she was about to take her daughter ho.
Upon seeing Li Hao show his credentials, Yang Zhi turned pale with fright and kept saying: "Please don’t scare my daughter, okay?"
Her five-year-old daughter was in kindergarten, staring curiously with wide eyes at the three strangers in front of her, "My mommy is a good person, you can’t arrest my mommy."
Mu Anhan took a toy out of her coat pocket and handed it to her: "Auntie also has a daughter, a bit younger than you. Don’t worry, we’re not going to take your mommy away; we just want to have a chat with her."
The little girl liked it but didn’t dare to take it, just looked at her mother.
Yang Zhi had no choice but to say: "Take it! Thank Auntie! You wait by mom’s electric bike, don’t run around. Mom will chat with the uncles and aunties, and then take you ho to cook dinner."
Xue Xiangtong offered: "There’s a western restaurant up front, we haven’t eaten either. We’ll take the little girl to eat together."
"Okay, let’s go together! I’ll treat." Mu Anhan waved generously.
