Chapter 745 Wow, this case was solved quickly!
The little jeep sped to an inconspicuous side gate of Factory 112, and before it had even come to a complete stop, it was surrounded by a group of badge warriors who had been waiting there.
The section chief leading the team even stepped forward personally, carrying a heavy-looking black cloth bag.
As soon as the car door was opened, the section chief, without saying a word, skillfully shoved the black cloth bag over Chief Engineer Li's head and pulled it down!
"Hey, the section chief's skills are still as good as ever!" one of the sycophants blurted out.
This is like activating the key.
Just moments before, Chief Engineer Li had been lifeless and submissive, but now he seemed to have been infused with a soul, unleashing astonishing energy from the black bag. He resembled a salted fish desperately trying to defy fate.
Unfortunately, reality is cruel.
As he struggled, the surface of the cloth bag rose and fell, like a giant, irregularly wriggling silkworm cocoon. But the two battle-hardened warriors beside him reacted quickly, each holding one of his shoulders and arms firmly, rendering all his struggles futile and unable to make a ripple.
"Tsk, now you know how to be shameful? Why didn't you do this earlier!" Old Wang stood by, arms crossed, sneering.
Company Commander Tang shook his head helplessly and explained to the head of the security department of Factory 112, "He was quite well-behaved on the way, but this set of cloth bags has brought out his 'backbone'."
The section chief was clearly used to this kind of scene. He patted the "black sack" that was still wriggling in vain with a blank expression and said in a flat tone, "It's nothing. You'll get used to it after a few more times. Remember the 'three fans' incident? There were some that were even more thrashing around than this, but they all quieted down in the end, didn't they? These people, once they have a little position, they get arrogant. Why don't they learn their lesson?"
Li, the chief engineer, struggled for a long time inside the bag, panting heavily, before realizing that his mouth wasn't sealed! He vaguely heard the words "Security Department" and "Director," and then he shouted loudly again.
"I'll confess! I'll confess everything! Don't hand me over to the security department! They're in cahoots! They want to silence me!"
As Lao Wang listened to Chief Engineer Li's desperate howling, he frowned and remembered "Old Liu from the Security Department" mentioned in the phone call!
He immediately took two steps forward, his eyes sweeping over the head of the security department of Factory 112 beside him, his voice a little deeper: "Hey, what's your last name again?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the head of security at Factory 112's face darkened instantly, and he gave Old Wang a hard slap:
"What do you mean, kid? You think you're all grown up now? Should I have saved that drowning dog back then?"
Old Wang chuckled sheepishly, "Hey! Old squad leader, I didn't mean it. I was just saying it for the guy inside to hear, to let him know who he's dealing with!" He pointed to the black cloth bag that was still swaying slightly, "Look how scared he is, he thinks the security department is all in cahoots."
Director Chen rolled his eyes at him, but didn't really take it to heart. He raised his chin at the cloth bag and said, "Did you hear that? My surname is Chen. I'm from the security department of Factory 112. I'm not one of those people you're talking about. If you keep spouting nonsense, I might really shut you up."
The commotion inside the black bag subsided instantly. After a few seconds, Chief Engineer Li's voice came from inside the bag, his earlier momentum gone, replaced by a trembling fear: "Director Chen... Director Chen? Really not from over there?"
"If I were in cahoots with him, would I be wasting my breath talking to you here?" Director Chen's tone was calm, yet it carried a reassuring firmness. "If you really want to confess, then be honest and come inside with me. There will be paper and pen for you to write down, and no one will dare to lay a finger on you."
Chief Engineer Li didn't say anything more, and the bag stopped moving completely, presumably because he was relieved.
Seeing this, Lao Wang pressed his advantage, pulling Director Chen two steps to the side and lowering his voice: "Old squad leader, I want to ask you something. In your factory, is there a director surnamed Liu? You mean... someone who's in cahoots with those guys?"
Director Chen clearly knew something about it. Hearing this, he frowned and rubbed his chin with his finger: "A man surnamed Liu? There are quite a few people surnamed Liu in the security department. Just in the security section of our factory's subordinate workshops alone, there are three people surnamed Liu, not to mention those in other units. Which system are you talking about? Is it from our Factory 112, or a security officer assigned by an external project team?"
"I can't say for sure either." Old Wang scratched his head. "Just now, Chief Engineer Li said that they sent someone surnamed Liu to the warehouse to 'finish things off,' but he didn't specify which unit it was from."
Director Chen sighed and shook his head: "Then it will be difficult to investigate. If it's someone from our factory, I can find out by checking the roster; but if it's someone from outside, we have to check with other units, and it will take half a day or a whole day to find out the result."
He paused, then added, "But don't worry, now that we know about this person, I'll have someone keep an eye on him and also check the factory's work logs. Before you catch someone, you have to clean up your own place!"
"Also, didn't that person say he was sent by Director Zhao? Director Zhao is from the Dongfeng 113 project command, right? That narrows down the scope a bit!"
Old Wang nodded, feeling a weight lifted from his shoulders: "Alright, then Chief Engineer Li is in your hands. Keep a close eye on him, don't let anyone take advantage of the situation. We need to rush back, they're waiting for news there."
"Don't worry." Director Chen patted his shoulder, then turned to the two soldiers and ordered, "Take him inside, find a clean room, remove the cloth bag from him, pour him a glass of water, and don't let him cause any trouble."
The two soldiers responded and carried the now-ceaseless "black bag" into the factory. Inside the bag, Chief Engineer Li was now completely still, presumably having truly believed Director Chen's words and pondering how to give a proper explanation to secure leniency.
Old Wang watched their retreating figures, exchanged a glance with Company Commander Tang, and said, "Let's go back to Jiangxia and tell him about the situation here. We also need to keep a closer eye on security. We still can't rest easy until we find that guy surnamed Liu."
Company Commander Tang responded and opened the car door: "Okay, let's keep an eye on things with Li Huaide and the others on the way, and tell them to keep an eye on the latest developments."
"I feel like I've been on a battlefield this time..."
"Who says otherwise... I think it's even more dangerous than going to the battlefield. After all, no one stabs you in the back on the battlefield..."
They both sighed.
Just as they were about to start the jeep, Chief Engineer Li, who looked like a large black cocoon, suddenly stopped and shouted behind him, "Comrade! That idiom is 'colluding with each other'! Also, that cobbled-together sonic boom device, the important thing is its circuit board!"
"Pfft..." Company Commander Tang looked at Old Wang, who was grinding his teeth beside him, "You can't do this either..."
…………
The Jeep started up again, its wheels crunching over the gravel as it headed towards the research institute. The morning light grew brighter, illuminating the factory's perimeter walls clearly.
The two drove out of the side gate onto the main road. After driving for more than ten minutes, they saw a noisy crowd of people gathered at the entrance of another factory.
Two people, bound hand and foot, were pushed out of the factory gate and were being pushed through a plank into the carriage of a Liberation truck.
The crowd on both sides were also very excited, picking up pebbles from the ground and throwing them at the two men.
"Oh, so... the case has been solved?"
The commotion was so loud that even the usually focused Company Commander Tang couldn't help but step on the brakes and stop to watch.
"Hey, this investigation team is pretty efficient. Once they're done here, should we submit a request to have them stay and help out? I reckon this project review will be quite serious. We might be short-handed!"
Company Commander Tang shook his head: "What are you thinking! We'll deal with the cleanup after Jiangxia leaves!"
"Too!"
With a tap of the accelerator, the little jeep continued on its way.
As the Liberation Trucks started moving, the crowd at the factory gradually dispersed, revealing the factory's signboard.
Factory 6.1.5...
