Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Chapter 505: The Fish Pond Contract Comes to an End

Jiang Ran said as he picked up a bucket and walked over to the head of the household, the Fishpond Owner, the middle-aged man.He poured it out with a clatter.

In an instant, the middle-aged man was drenched from head to toe in gasoline.

Seeing the middle-aged man treated like this, the unknown fear in the eyes of the other four people grew even larger.

They even more frantically made muffled cries at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran made a shushing gesture at them.

"Don't be noisy. It wouldn't be good to disturb the neighbors next door."

Immediately after, Jiang Ran picked up the gasoline and diesel and continued pouring it on the other four people.

Soon, all five people were covered in gasoline and diesel.

Of course, this wasn't the end yet.

Before this step, he had actually poured gasoline and diesel in many places throughout the entire house.

After finishing the dousing of all five people, Jiang Ran said, "Alright, everyone, the job is done. I'll be leaving first."

Jiang Ran smiled and waved at the five of them.

Then, right in front of them, he really did leave their house step by step.

This scene left all five people dumbfounded.

The five of them looked at each other.

Even though they couldn't communicate with their mouths, their eyes seemed to be saying, "What the hell is that guy?! What does he want to do? Is it over just like that?"

He brought them here, poured stuff on them, and that's it?

Just as they were thinking this, the Crippled Son seemed to see something.

His frantic, muffled cries became even more intense.

The other four people also looked in the direction the Crippled Son was staring.

They saw, over there in the darkness, a glimmer of light was growing and spreading at a terrifying speed.

Soon, it spread to just a few meters in front of them.

"Fire! Fire!"

All five people were horrified in their hearts.

They wanted to escape.

But because their bodies were tied too tightly by Jiang Ran with the rope, they simply couldn't run.

They could only watch step by step as the great fire before them transformed into a fire demon, pouncing toward them.

In an instant, it engulfed them...

Jiang Ran was now about a hundred meters away from the fishpond owner's family house.

He stared at the fishpond owner's family's two-story cement house.

Burning fiercely.

Transformed into a mountain of fire.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

Every pore in his body radiated excitement.

It was as if fire could bring him immense joy.

He, involuntarily, began to dance before the beautiful sight of the flames.

After finishing his dance, he turned and left, paying no heed to the shouts and yells of the other villagers who had been awakened by the fire.

He just muttered to himself:

"A person makes many mistakes in their lifetime. Making mistakes isn't scary. What's scary is that some mistakes can cost people their lives."

...

The next morning, a little past seven.

Wang Qingzhao was sleeping in late in her hotel room.

This hotel was in the town closest to Xiaoshi Village.

Since it was agreed that they would drive back to Nancheng City this afternoon, Wang Qingzhao, Zhang Xue, and the others had all made a pact.

They would have a good, long sleep in the morning.

After all, what young person doesn't sleep in?

Some young people, exaggeratedly, even sleep until one or two in the afternoon before waking up.

Wang Qingzhao was the same.

Though she wasn't that extreme.

Wang Qingzhao was very beautiful.

Her sleeping posture was also beautiful, unlike some pretty girls who strike all sorts of poses when awake but become unrecognizable when asleep.

She was breathing steadily.

Her mind kept playing a wonderful dream where she held a submachine gun, charged into the street, and randomly shot people.

Just as she was shooting, right in the middle of her enjoyment, a knocking sound at the door pulled her from the dream street back to reality.

When she reluctantly opened the door, her drowsy eyes were immediately stimulated wide open by the scene before her.

Because there were many people at the door.

Besides Jiang Ran, Zhang Xue, and the others, there were also several police officers.

Zhang Xue said even more urgently, "Qingzhao, something's happened!"

Wang Qingzhao said blankly, "Happened? What happened?"

Zhang Xue said anxiously, "That fishpond owner we rented the pond from yesterday, their house caught fire late last night!!!"

Hearing this, Wang Qingzhao frowned, "Caught fire? And then?"

Zhang Xue said, "A huge fire! All five members of the family were burned to death!"

"And it's highly likely it was arson!!!"

Wang Qingzhao was somewhat stunned by this news and couldn't immediately process it.

But soon, staring at the several police officers before her, she instantly understood.

Were they suspecting them?

After all, they had a grievance with the fishpond owner's family, having been scammed by them.

And then, right after being scammed, their house caught fire that night.

"I'll change my clothes and be right out."

Wang Qingzhao closed the door and said.

...

Soon, Wang Qingzhao came out.

After coming out, all of them, including Jiang Ran, were taken to the police station and interrogated separately.

Naturally, Jiang Ran was also taken to an interrogation room.

Two police officers were in charge of the interrogation.

One officer was responsible for recording, while the other was responsible for questioning.

The interrogation light was somewhat glaring.

"What's your name?"

"Jiang Ran."

"Gender, age, where is your home, where do you work?"

"Male, 23, home is at Alice Apartment in Nancheng City, currently unemployed."

"Nancheng City? That's in the neighboring province? Why did you come to Yang City here?"

"Invited by a friend."

"Which friend?"

"Wang Qingzhao, the one traveling with us."

"What did she invite you here to do?"

"To have fun. One of her internet celebrity friends was shooting a video about renting a fishpond."

"Where were you after 10 PM last night?"

"I was sleeping in my hotel room."

"Can anyone prove that?"

"No. However, the hotel should have surveillance, which can prove I never left my room."

The two police officers glanced at each other.

They continued asking, "What are your thoughts on the family that died in the fire?"

"No particular thoughts. I've seen plenty of people like that. Scammers and cheats."

"I heard you were also scammed out of over three thousand?"

"Mm. The few of us pooled money to rent the fishpond, so we wanted to gamble a bit for fun."

"You all pooled money together to rent it?"

"Yes."

"Then was there anyone who was extremely angry about being scammed, to the point of...?"

"How could that be? The total cost to rent the pond was only twenty thousand yuan. Even if one person paid the entire amount, no one would kill over a mere twenty thousand, right?"

"Isn't that a joke?"

"It's not tens of millions or hundreds of millions. Who would be that stupid?"

Next, Jiang Ran was questioned about some other matters.

After the interrogation ended, he was taken out.

While being led out, Jiang Ran's expression was extremely calm.

He thought to himself, I've already considered everything you could think of.

Before doing this, he had already scouted out every step of the process.

Especially since the hotels in this town were extremely shoddy, after all, it was just a backward town. Apart from the one at the entrance, all the other surveillance cameras were just for show.

Including his entire journey to Xiaoshi Village, it was all done extremely stealthily.

And Xiaoshi Village, this backward village, had no surveillance cameras at all.

After Jiang Ran came out, he also saw the other few people.

Soon, the last one, Wang Qingzhao, also came out of the interrogation room. It seemed they were all upstanding citizens.
