I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years

Chapter 329: I’m going to kill you!

Ding Ruilong, who was leaning on the bed, sat up straight, gritted his teeth and said to the phone, “Li! Ruo! Tai! What the hell do you mean?!”

Ding Ruilong knew that Li Ruotai would laugh at him, and since Ding Ruilong chose to answer the call, he was naturally ready to speak.

Ding Ruilong already knew about the fire at the Crown Entertainment Club, since Sun Yongzhang told him yesterday.

This could make Ding Ruilong joke back.

But he never expected that Li Ruotai would scold him angrily when he answered.

“Don’t you know what I mean? Why don’t you stop pretending!” Li Ruotai said angrily, “You set fire to my club. Do you think I won’t find out? I’m telling you, I’ll kill you!”

Ding Ruilong was stunned again and then said, “What? Is it related to me?”

“Still pretending? Still pretending? I’m screwing you, Ding Ruilong!” Li Ruotai was furious.

He was almost out of control.

Ding Ruilong was completely confused. He felt that Li Ruotai was serious. He also understood that the reason why Li Ruotai was so angry and scolded him was because he believed that the fire in the club… was started by himself?

“Li Ruotai, stop spitting blood on me. I’m telling you! The fire incident has nothing to do with me. Don’t you know that I’m in the hospital? Don’t try to frame me!”

“I framed you?! You mean me? I burn down the club and blame it on you? Is there something wrong with your brain?”

“Did I say that? You insist on saying that I did something that has nothing to do with me?” Ding Ruilong was also angered, but he did not dare to say that Li Ruotai burned the clubhouse himself and then framed him.

No matter how much Ding Ruilong thought about it, he would never think in the direction that Li Ruotai set the fire on his own. Li Ruotai had worked hard on the Crown Entertainment Club for several years in Donghai, yet he would burn it down just to frame him?

Impossible!

It’s not worth it. Of course that was given that the Ding family did not know the crisis Li Ruotai was currently suffering from.

Originally, the Ding family should know, because the Li family needed to use their personal connections to resolve some subsequent troubles.

But!

When Li Maoren came to Donghai in person because of Li Ruotai’s troubles, he negotiated with Wu Chen and decided to attack the Ding family.

Under such circumstances, after Li Maoren returned, he would naturally not tell the Ding family about Li Ruotai’s troubles!

This was why the Ding family knew nothing about Li Ruotai’s troubles! And so, Ding Ruilong didn’t even have the slightest space to think about it!

Who would he suspect? It is impossible to suspect Li Ruotai himself.

Beside, Sun Yongzhang had already stood up.

He heard Ding Ruilong say Li Ruotai’s name and knew that Ding Ruilong was quarreling with his nephew Li Ruotai.

“Ruilong, you guys…” Sun Yongzhang took two steps towards the bed, his expression changing again and again.

Because Ding Ruilong said, “The cause of the fire has nothing to do with me,” Sun Yongzhang was able to analyze what the two were arguing about.

Sun Yongzhang was stunned, and so was Tang Jingbin.

What? Ding Ruilong was responsible for the fire in the Crown Entertainment Club?

How is this possible?

“Ruilong… give me your phone, give it to me!” Sun Yongzhang stretched out his hand and gestured to Ding Ruilong.

Ding Ruilong glanced at Sun Yongzhang and handed the phone to Sun Yongzhang.

He was very angry, but he actually didn’t bother to argue with Li Ruotai. Li Ruotai was too harsh!

“Atai… what’s going on? What does the fire have to do with Ruilong?” Sun Yongzhang said and walked away. After a few steps, he reached the window.

“Third uncle, I…” Li Ruotai explained the situation to Sun Yongzhang, unable to speak smoothly due to his excitement.

The fire at the Crown Entertainment Club was put out in the middle of the night yesterday. Because it was discovered in time and the fire brigade arrived in time, the entire building was not burned down. The ninth, tenth, eleventh and eighth floors were partly burnt.

Even so, the most valuable part of the Crown Entertainment Club was the top three floors. In comparison, the cost of building this building was only a very small part of the total cost.

The first thing that was valuable was the land!

The second thing was the decoration!

There was no upper limit on the decoration cost. Hundreds of millions of dollars could be spent on a painting at an auction and hung on the wall. That was part of the decoration.

Although there were no paintings worth hundreds of millions in the Crown Entertainment Club, the top three floors were decorated with top-notch luxury. The decoration cost alone was 300 million.

Not to mention the three floors, let’s talk about Li Ruotai’s suite on the 11th floor. The decoration cost of that suite, including various furnishings, antique vases, a piano worth millions, etc., they totaled tens of millions!

It was only the losses that could be calculated on paper, but there were also losses that could not be calculated. Once the Crown Entertainment Club was closed for rectification, the impact would not be comparable to hundreds of millions.

Li Ruotai didn’t sleep all night last night.

After extinguishing the fire, he kept an eye on the cleanup.

He took stock of losses.

In the morning, they followed up to investigate the cause of the fire. The police went to the scene and conducted a professional inspection. The initial fire point had been found. Judging from the traces of the fire, it should be in the bedroom of Suite 1029, near the window corner. “Uninterruptible power supply” socket…

The cause of the fire should be a short circuit!

A small flame burned the curtains into a big fire, the decoration materials were flammable, and the fire spread.

As for why there was a short circuit, it was not easy to find out. It might be that a mouse had bitten a wire. It could also be that the related wires and sockets were unintentionally damaged by previous guests, or that the sockets were tampered with in advance, etc…

There were too many possibilities!

They could only infer the cause, but they could not determine the cause.

And because there were no guests staying in Room 1029, not long ago, investigators retrieved the surveillance video before the fire.

It was worth mentioning that Crown Entertainment Club had two monitoring systems, one dark and one bright. The former’s monitoring room was on the top floor. Because the club was going to be burned down, no one could find it. Therefore, Li Ruotai had already set up this dark monitoring system. It was demolished in advance.

There was only one set left!

It was the normal monitoring system of the club, monitoring in each corridor, and the monitoring room was on the first floor.

The first floor was not burned, so it was possible to obtain monitoring of all the corridors on the tenth floor before the fire.

They checked!

But they didn’t find anything unusual before the fire. No one entered or left room 1029. No one checked in. The suite was clean, so the cleaning staff would naturally not go there.

They checked more “forward”!

Li Ruotai saw that according to the footage captured by the surveillance camera in the corridor on the tenth floor, at around 4:45 pm yesterday and around 6:18 pm, one of Ding Ruilong’s bodyguards sneaked into Room 1029 twice and stayed in the room for several minutes both times.

This was naturally very abnormal!

They did more research and looked at other surveillance cameras, and they also captured footage of the bodyguard wandering in the corridor on the ninth floor and talking to the cleaning girl.

“…Who else could it be if not him? Am I just angry with him? Didn’t I just say a few words to my brother-in-law? Did he ask people to set fire to my club?” Li Ruotai said it all, and he said it with a great loss. After talking about what was found, he was almost hysterical in the end!

Sun Yongzhang was completely confused.

He knew about Li Ruotai’s troubles, but he didn’t know that Li Ruotai had plans to burn down the club. This idea came from Wu Chen and only a few people knew about it.

Sun Yongzhang turned to look at Ding Ruilong, holding the phone and was speechless for a moment.

“Third uncle, is Ding Ruilong still in the hospital?” Li Ruotai asked.

“Yes… yes.” Sun Yongzhang said.

“I’ll be there right away. Dududu… ” Li Ruotai said and hung up the phone.

Sun Yongzhang put down his cell phone, walked back, and returned the phone to Ding Ruilong.

“Uncle Sun?” Ding Ruilong saw that Sun Yongzhang looked wrong.

“Atai will come over soon. Let’s talk about it when he comes. There may be some misunderstanding.” Sun Yongzhang walked back to the sofa and sat down. His expression was wrong, but he didn’t say much.

More than half an hour later…

Suddenly, there was a loud noise and shouts from the ward door.

“Don’t try to stop me. Don’y you want to live?

“Kneel down!!”

Li Ruotai arrived, bringing dozens of people with him. Ding Ruilong’s bodyguards in the corridor were caught off guard and were all subdued.

Bang!

Li Ruotai kicked open the door of the ward.

“Ding Ruilong, I’m going to kill you!” Li Ruotai walked in and pulled out his gun.
