The next morning, the results from the fire investigation lab came back. The melted piece of glass that Gong Yingxian found at the scene, as he had suspected, came from an alcohol lamp.hKckqWKgQWRjTlbkRAYtSnJeXCTtsB

“People who use drugs often have manipulative personalities. I don’t fully believe her, but there’s something suspicious. The bottles of alcohol lamps are sealed. If it’s just tipped over, the wick might leak fluid, but it’s hard to cause a large-scale spill all at once. Also, the bottle itself is usually thick. How high are the table or the sofa? About forty centimeters, right? I bought seven different alcohol lamps and tested them. From that height, only the one with the worst quality broke. The one I found was pretty thick.”tyjiGJogYcBifRwBpXNyAFXRClrtch
