After handing over the task of making the golem to Hu Li and others, Liu Xing prepared to go to the brewery, intending to release the imprisoned Ichiro Kishimoto, because there was no need to imprison them anymore.
By the way, Liu Xing also wants to have a good exchange with his other self, Watanabe Ryusei, to see what he thinks of the current Kogawa Koo.
As a result, before Liu Xing got in the car, she received a call from Zhang Jingxu.
"Sure enough, as we had guessed, people from the public faction have begun to blame us. Now several more police have arrived and are questioning the employees in the factory. If nothing goes wrong, they will come soon.
Looking for you."
Liu Xing frowned and said with some embarrassment: "Then do I want to disappear now? I think if they take me back to the police station, I may not be able to come out today."
"If you really do this, Liu Xing, I'm afraid the person who gets caught will be me, so I have to disappear with you. Only after the Battle of Gongwu can we clear our names together... But
Having said that, I just sent someone to investigate the deceased and found that he recently lost a lot of money due to stock trading, and he also has two children in elementary school at home."
Zhang Jingxu sighed and said helplessly: "Just half an hour ago, that person's wife took the child back to her hometown, and she refused to claim the body on the grounds of emotional discord. It seems that the public faction is
They are determined to punish us and have blocked all links where problems may arise."
"This is a bit cruel."
Liu Xing thought for a while and continued: "Then I'd better go to the police station. I have surveillance videos near the farm. As for the video cameras that filmed illegal driving along the way, I should have been caught, so from the time
It can be inferred from the above that I did not have time to commit the crime, after all, the path leading to the natural gas tanking plant will be completed in a short time."
"Well, I also think it's best for you, Liu Xing, to clear your suspicions so that we can get away from this case. But you still have to be careful. I doubt that people from the public faction will choose
Use words to induce you to make some speeches." Zhang Jingxu sighed again and said.
Liu Xing smiled, shook his head and said: "Don't worry about this. I, Liu, also studied psychology back then, and I also read some books on cold reading, so I won't say anything wrong.
What should be said, not to mention that I am still a wealthy person now. If I find that something is wrong, I will just shut up and wait for the lawyer."
As a result, as soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, he heard a stranger's voice coming from Zhang Jingxu's side, and the stranger asked Zhang Jingxu to cooperate with him in the investigation.
Then, Zhang Jingxu hung up the phone.
To be on the safe side, Liu Xing told others about the incident, so Yin En and Ding Kun took several more members of the Yellow Clothes Sect to the natural gas bottling plant to ensure that Zhang Jingxu would be fine.
Liu Xing followed his previous schedule and drove to the brewery. At this time, the brewery was quite lively. Before he even entered the door, he heard someone chatting inside, and the content of the chat was about what to eat tonight.
It seems that staying here is quite boring.
Liu Xing shook his head and opened the door directly to enter the brewery, because before he came, Liu Xing had already told Watanabe Ryusei to leave a door for him.
After entering the brewery, Liu Xing saw Watanabe Ryusei playing shogi with Onikawa Koo.
Seeing Liu Xing's arrival, Watanabe Ryusei smiled and said, "Liu Xing, please wait for a while. I will win this game soon."
As an opponent, Kogawa Kofu was still unconvinced and said: "Master, don't be too confident, I still have a chance to make a comeback."
Because he couldn't understand shogi, Liu Xing could only point to the room upstairs where Kishimoto Ichiro and others were detained and said: "Then I will go up and take a look at the people in the Ikuta group. If there are no problems, I will release them all."
, anyway, there is no need to imprison them now; by the way, Xiaofu, these guys didn’t plan to escape yesterday, did they?”
"Of course not. Those guys are really more honest than the other, because they know that it is impossible for them to escape. After all, the binding rope we prepared is a special version. It is impossible for ordinary people to break away. Besides, I promise to be there at all times."
At every moment, there are at least two people guarding the door of the room where they are detained." Kogawa Kofu answered very confidently.
Liu Xing nodded and went upstairs.
Just as Mr. Onikawa said, there were two people guarding the door of Kishimoto Ichiro and others at this time, and the sound of snoring came from the room. It seemed that Kishimoto Ichiro and others were relaxing in the room.
It was even more boring, so I had no choice but to sleep to pass the time.
However, just to be on the safe side, Liu Xing took out his pistol and asked the two people guarding the door to get ready.
As a result, when Liu Xing entered the room, he saw Ichiro Kishimoto standing at the window looking out.
To be honest, the current height of this room is still within an acceptable range for an adult man with good physical fitness. However, because his hands were tied, Kishimoto Ichiro could not make up his mind to jump for a while.
Because if you jump from such a height, you have to roll and other actions to relieve the force, otherwise you are likely to suffer fractures.
However, because his hands were tied back, it would be very awkward for Kishimoto Ichiro to roll at this time, not to mention that he would roll after falling from a high altitude, so Liu Xing knew that Kishimoto Ichiro should be very hesitant at this time.
of.
Of course, now Ichiro Kishimoto no longer has to hesitate, because he has already turned around and saw Liu Xing at the door.
Therefore, Ichiro Kishimoto said very awkwardly: "Uh, um, I'm just bored and looking at the scenery outside."
"Do I need to open the window?"
Idle time is also idle. Liu Xing is not in a hurry to return to the farm now, so he said with a half-smile: "And what is there to see in this industrial zone? There are factories everywhere you look. I believe you are in the cannery."
I don’t go there less often when I’m at work..."
Before Liu Xing finished speaking, the fluorescent lamp above his head suddenly went out.
"This is?"
Liu Xing suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart. Because the power company in charge of the industrial zone was its own, so if the power company had a power outage, it would have informed him in advance. If it was a sudden power outage, it would
It can be ruled out that it is caused by excessive electricity consumption in the surrounding area, because there are only a few factories still operating in the industrial area, so the electricity consumption is not that high no matter how high it is.
So the reason why the brewery is experiencing power outages today is because someone cut off the circuit in all likelihood!
Now the question arises, is the circuit that was cut off only the brewery, or the entire industrial area?
Soon Liu Xing got the answer - the whole of Nagoya!
Yes, Liu Xing received a text message from Tanegashima Teruyoshi, which stated that the power in Nagoya was cut off at the same time due to some unknown reasons... Of course, this is obviously the public faction starting to take action, but now
It is still not certain that the public faction has found the right link to act, so Tanegashima Teruichi is arranging manpower to carry out maintenance.
This made Liu Xing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, because Liu Xing was still worried that the power outage was caused by the Ikuta group, and the purpose was to prepare for a sneak attack on the brewery and rescue Ichiro Kishimoto.
Although power outage during the day will not have a very good effect.
But then again, are the public faction ready to take action?
This is not right. A power outage during the day will not bring much advantage to the public faction. At most, it will give the Shimadzu family, which has just taken over the Nagoya Electric Power Company, a headache. But not long ago, Nagoya had already had a city-wide earthquake.
There was a massive blackout, so the Shimadzu family can attribute the blackout to the failure of the previous power company to complete maintenance.
So why do public factions do this?
Liu Xing, who had a gloomy expression, startled Ichiro Kishimoto who was standing opposite him, because in his opinion, Liu Xing might have attributed the power outage to him, and felt that his team leader was either
Either he was demonstrating against them, or he was planning to launch a surprise attack while they were distracted.
Thinking of this, Ichiro Kishimoto said quickly: "Sir, this power outage is definitely not caused by our Ikuta group, because we have really given up, and besides, sir, you also said you would let us go."
Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, I don't think your Ikuta group can cut off all the power in Nagoya, because if your Ikuta group could really do it, you wouldn't be here now.
Already."
"Well, it seems like we can really do this."
What surprised Liu Xing was that Ichiro Kishimoto dared to "refute" himself, "Because Nagoya is a metropolis that has been established for a long time, so although Nagoya's power network is constantly being maintained and updated, in general
It's all about changing the soup without changing the medicine. Therefore, if you want to cut off the power supply in Nagoya at the same time, you only need to arrange a few people at the core of the power network, that is, near several important substations or substations, to cut off the entire power supply.
Electricity is supplied to Nagoya.”
Looking at Liu Xing who looked confused, Ichiro Kishimoto said a little awkwardly: "Well, my father used to be a maintenance man at Nagoya Electric Power Company, and I was introduced by my father when I just graduated from school.
I also became a maintenance worker, but I couldn't do such hard work, so I chose to resign not long after."
Ichiro Kishimoto's answer made Liu Xing a little surprised and a little curious, "Oh, can you tell me where these important positions are? If it makes sense, I will let you go."
Hearing what Liu Xing said, Kishimoto Ichiro immediately became energetic, "This is actually very simple. In order to save costs, the original Nagoya Electric Power Company concentrated the power supply network in a large area together, so it wanted to cut off power to the entire area.
In fact, in Nagoya, at least six substations or transformer boxes need to be destroyed. For example, the substation in our industrial area is located near the furniture factory that caught fire. And I still remember that the person in charge of that substation is an alcoholic and often drinks during the day.
.”
"Really? In such a big city, you only need to destroy six substations to complete the entire city's power outage? This is too outrageous!"
Liu Xing continued in surprise: "No wonder there was a power outage in Nagoya at the same time some time ago. It turns out that it is so easy to cut off the power in the whole city."
Ichiro Kishimoto shrugged and replied with a smile: "Of course, transforming the city's circuits is a laborious and expensive matter, so for so many years, Nagoya Electric Power Company has not been willing to carry out the transformation. After all, as a
As a private company, they have to consider issues of cost and return, and now the electricity price cannot rise, so it may take decades to recoup the cost of renovation."
This is what is called privatization.
Liu Xing shook his head and said to the person at the door: "Go and prepare a few cars and take them to a farther intersection and drop them off."
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Ichiro Kishimoto said happily: "Thank you, sir. I know you must be a man of your word, sir. Our Ikuta group will never think of revenge."
"Because we are not the target of your revenge in the first place. After all, we did not blow up your cannery."
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Xing said, "If I guess correctly, the reason why your cannery suddenly exploded and caught fire may be the same as the previous furniture factory."
"Furniture Factory?"
Ichiro Kishimoto frowned and said: "Yes, how could I forget this matter... But I also know the situation of the furniture factory, it is just an ordinary processing factory."
Liu Xing went downstairs without further explanation.
When they got downstairs, Ryusei Watanabe asked about the power outage.
"So that's it. I was wondering why a city as big as Nagoya would cut off power whenever there is a power outage. It turns out that the risk-resisting ability of the city's electricity has been greatly reduced due to cost issues. However, I still can't figure out why the public faction would cut off power during the day. Could it be
Do you just want to give the Shimadzu family a hard time?"
"No, that's not the case. If they really want to pass the blame, the Shimadzu family has plenty of reasons to distance themselves from themselves. Besides, it's not difficult to find evidence of artificial destruction of the substation now. So the public faction must have other conspiracies."
Liu Xing thought for a while and said seriously: "So, what will the power outage have the greatest impact? I think this should be a chain plan."
"Daily office work? There are quite a lot of office buildings in Nagoya, so this sudden power outage may cause many documents that are being edited to be scrapped." Onikawa Koo came over and said, "By the way, there are also some Internet-related documents.
companies, their servers may be affected by the outage."
