Chapter 333: The Investigation

"Near the north side of the auditorium," Mandy recalled.

Seeing that they were not going to find out anything more from Mandy, Hazel asked people to take her to the hospital.

Joshua looked at Hazel and said, "I have a way to find out who set the fire."

"Really?" Hazel was nervous.

“Well,” he said. “Follow me.”

"To go where?" Hazel asked curiously.

"To check the monitor video," Joshua replied.

"Isn't the monitor video camera broken?" Hazel asked curiously.

“There was a monitor video camera in the factory.” Joshua said, “A decade ago, the coffee factory was remodeled because the original monitoring terminal was installed by Denmark Group, they installed a new system. But the original monitoring system was still in use, but not many people know about it."

Hazel sighed. "That's great! Let’s make them pass over the surveillance video!"

The two went to Hazel’s office, Joshua had already made the calls he needed to, and the video was sent to his email. They watched the video of a suspicious person walking out of the auditorium. He picked up a set of heavy-looking clothes from a bunch of nearby bushes and put them on as he went toward the warehouse.

"Do you know him?" Joshua said in a low voice.

"I know him." Hazel said with an ugly facial expression, "His name is Clark Nelson. He is responsible for the management of the storage department. When I was holding the meeting the other day, he had deliberately embarrassed me."

Joshua’s eyes darkened.

Hazel took out his mobile phone and was about to dial out, but Joshua grabbed the phone.

"What are you doing?" Hazel looked at him, astonished.

"What are you doing? What do you want to do?" he asked.

"Of course, call the police to arrest him!" Hazel frowned. "He deliberately set the fire. Shouldn't he be arrested?"

"And then?" Joshua asked. "Have you ever thought about who is behind him and told him to embarrass you deliberately? And who asked him to set the fire? If he dared to do this, he must be prepared to be arrested, and even if the police arrest him, he may not confess who asked him to do it."

"What should I do?" Hazel frowned. Apart from calling the police, she hadn’t thought of other ways.

"Hazel, if you trust me, you let me deal with this," Joshua said.

"But..." Hazel was somewhat hesitant. "You promised that this time you would not help me. If so, will the directors say anything?"

"I promised that I wouldn't help you," Joshua’s eyes darkened. "But it doesn't mean if they use this kind of dirty trick, I will sit and ignore it!"

"You mean, is this what the directors have done?" Hazel was angry. To stop her, they didn’t hesitate to ask someone to set a fire. Don’t they care about the interests of Denmark Group?

"Maybe, even if it is not, they must have something to do with it." Joshua said, "Hazel, let me deal with it."

"Okay." Hazel nodded.

Joshua’s eyes were cold. He looked at the screen again. On the screen, Mandy walked out of the auditorium to get air, and she happened to see Clark.

"This is really a coincidence," Joshua said.

Hazel looked at the screen. She lifted her eyebrows, “Are you still suspecting her?”

Joshua was silent for a while, and he calmly said, "I just thought it was too coincidental. It always felt that it was not that simple."

Mandy not only confronted him completely by accident, but she also put the fire out in time. They could even say that Mandy’s help with putting out the fire reduced the loss.

Hazel frowned. She thought for a moment. “You’d better not say any of that to her. She was injured when she put out the fire. If she is suspected at this time, it will only upset her.”

Joshua looked at Hazel. Seeing that she was somewhat unhappy, he had to stop talking about it.

After she had comforted the company's employees, Joshua took Hazel back to Denmark Residence, after making sure that she was asleep, he snuck out of the house.

In an impenetrable room, a terrified Clark was tied to a chair. He did set the fire, and there was a plan prepared for his escape according to the arrangement. But before he could leave the city, he was found by Joshua’s security, and they tied him to the chair.

He hadn’t reacted because the person who asked him to set the fire clearly told him that the monitoring video was hacked and there would be no way for Hazel to find out it was him.

The sound of footsteps approached, and the door opened. Joshua walked in with a cold look.

When he saw Joshua, Clark felt a chill run down his spine. Did Joshua actually take action himself? How could it be? The man clearly said that Joshua would not be involved.

He couldn't help but shout, "Impossible! You have promised that you will not help Hazel!"

Joshua looked down at him, his eyes were full of sarcasm. "Who told you that I would not help Hazel?"

Clark’s facial expression suddenly changed. He suddenly realized that he said something he should have stopped talking about.

"You are unwilling to say it?" Joshua squinted at him, but his eyes were cold, and Clark started to tremble. "Don’t worry, I have patience. And there are many ways to make you speak."

Clark looked at him with horror. "You, what do you want to do? It is illegal to use intimidation!"

"You think," said Joshua. "I need to torture you to deal with you!"

Jaxson came in and put some documents in front of Clark. Only at a glance, Clark's face became pale.

"I heard that Mr. Nelson has an illegitimate child," Joshua said. "But he didn't like to learn. He also has anger problems and beats a classmate severely. Mr. Nelson spent a huge sum of money to make the victim’s family give up the lawsuit. I am very surprised, where did your money come from?”

"No, he is not my son, not me, I have not spent money..." Clark’s face was pale, and his eyes were avoiding looking at Joshua.

"Since Mr. Nelson doesn’t have a good memory and even does not remember his son," Joshua said indifferently. "I don't mind reminding you that even if you settle with the victim's family, there is no way to settle the victim. So, sometimes I like to do things that are unjust, I will help the victim."

Clark opened his mouth with terror, he felt like he was being defeated. He fell back into his chair. “You, don’t touch him. I will, I will say everything...”

Joshua looked at him indifferently. "Who asked you to set the fire?"
