Chapter 444 Inspection
Chapter 444 Inspection
When Ji Yu and his four companions arrived at the laboratory, the power system had just been restored.
In the huge laboratory, the air is filled with a serious atmosphere.
No one dared to breathe.
Although we tried our best to repair the accident, it still took too long.
No one knows what damage will be done to the important research in the laboratory.
Normally, if you make a mistake, you will be scolded. This time, you made such a big mistake, the professor will definitely be furious.
"Are you okay? Why does Cheng Mo's aura suddenly become so powerful?" Zhuang Yueji didn't remember the beating and went close to Ji Yu to whisper.
"Can you swallow something before you talk?" Ji Yu glanced at the toast in her hand and swallowed.
Because Cheng Mo was concerned about the situation in the laboratory, they only ate for a short while in the evening and rushed over after filling their stomachs.
Zhuang Yue was not full, so she grabbed two pieces of toast.
Ji Yu was so greedy that his mouth was watering. He was a step slow, but it was not appropriate to snatch food from a girl.
"Oh." Zhuang Yue swallowed the toast in her mouth and repeated it again.
Ji Yu pretended not to hear and quickly followed.
Several key cadres from the base were called into a conference room.
One of them stepped forward with a bitter look on his face and explained the situation of the power system.
"After checking, we found that the power outage was caused by a short circuit in the wires."
"But we checked it three days ago and confirmed that there was no problem. I don't know why, but it suddenly went wrong."
In order to ensure that there are no accidents in the experiment, the laboratory inspects the power room almost every week.
"What's going on in the backup power room?"
Cheng Mo didn't get angry immediately. Being angry wouldn't solve the problem. He would only get angry after the problem was solved.
"It's the same reason, but after we checked, we found that it might be due to... the tide."
The other party also knew that this reason was a bit outrageous. How could the weather in the capital be so humid? Moreover, there was no water source around the power room.
If one problem occurs, it can be considered a coincidence, but if two things happen together, it may not be a coincidence.
Cheng Mo didn't believe in such a coincidence.
"Did someone pour water into the power room?" Ji Yu guessed.
"This is very likely. It could be directed at someone."
As the largest shareholder, Yuan Shenghe's interests would be harmed if anything went wrong.
"Then let's check the surveillance." Cheng Mo frowned. If they were coming for the new antibiotic he was researching, they might be competitors.
"It may not be possible to find it through surveillance." Yuan Shenghe said in a deep voice, "After the accident, did all the people on duty stay at the base?"
"Yes, according to Professor Cheng's instructions, we did not let anyone leave." One person immediately replied.
Yuan Shenghe tapped the table lightly, "Is there anyone clamoring to leave?"
"No, I just asked when I could leave."
It is normal for those who do experiments to often forget to eat and sleep.
Some people are so determined to get a result that they don’t even want to go home, and are often driven away at eleven or twelve in the middle of the night.
Cheng Mo's laboratory has a rule that overtime cannot exceed 12 o'clock. He himself can do so, but he does not allow his employees to do so.
In case of sudden death, he will be held responsible and the experimental project will most likely be suspended.
Yuan Shenghe asked again: "Is there anything missing from the laboratory?"
"No."
After the power outage, they worked hard to repair the circuits.
After the power supply was restored, everyone immediately checked several important places.
Fortunately, some places are locked and require keys or facial recognition to open.
Moreover, everyone was in the laboratory of the base, and there was no sign of outsiders sneaking in.
There shouldn't be any problem.
Everyone thought so in their hearts.
Cheng Mo was worried and checked it again.
There were some places that only he could enter, and he went in carefully to take a look.
He has a very good memory and will never forget something he has seen once.
The situation in the laboratory remained the same as before he left.
Cheng Mo stepped out.
After a thorough inspection, they did not find anything unusual.
Normal people might think it was an accident after realizing that nothing happened, but Cheng Mo, Yuan Sheng and the others didn’t think so.
"Since they chose to destroy the power room of the base, it means that there is indeed something that the mastermind wants here."
Yuan Shenghe pondered for a moment, wondering what the other party wanted to get from the laboratory.
"Do you have any idea?"
Cheng Mo shook his head. "I can't think of one for now. I need to check who is staying in the base laboratory tonight."
"A body search is not a good idea, and it's been a while. If the other party really stole something, he might have hidden it somewhere." Ji Yu guessed.
"Then let's check the surveillance first and do a body search at the same time." Yuan Shenghe made the decision immediately.
There was a sudden power outage at the base, and we heard that it was man-made. The employees were afraid of being blamed or fired, so they all cooperated.
Now that the laboratory has finally achieved some results, it is possible that someone is eyeing it.
But when the body search was halfway through, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred.
Hearing the noise, Cheng Mo and others came over.
"what happened?"
"Professor, someone is unwilling to cooperate with the investigation," the security guard explained.
Cheng Mo looked at the boy standing next to the security guard, sweating anxiously.
Ji Yu and Zhuang Yue also recognized this person. He was the boy who made a mistake in the experiment when they came to visit last time.
The boy was holding a black backpack tightly in his arms, as if he was afraid that it would be snatched away.
Cheng Mo looked at him and frowned slightly.
"Yang Xu, why don't you want the security guard to check your backpack?"
Yang Xu is the boy’s name. He looks extremely nervous. I don’t know if he has something to hide or for some other reason.
"Professor, I really didn't steal anything, please believe me."
"I believe you, but something did happen in the lab tonight. Someone deliberately damaged the power room, so we have to be careful. I can assure you that if you didn't take anything important from the lab, no one will wrongly accuse you."
"This is also to prevent people with bad intentions from taking advantage of the situation. It is not intended to target you."
Cheng Mo added, "Also, to compensate you, I will give an extra month's salary to those present tonight."
When they heard that they could get an extra month's salary if they were searched, those who were originally feeling a little uncomfortable were no longer angry.
Some people's salaries are not low. After all, those who are favored by Cheng Mo are mostly people with real talents.
He is not as stingy as other bosses. As long as the person is capable, he will give him a corresponding salary and will not infringe on the other party's achievements.
Because of this, many undergraduates and graduate students are trying their best to enter his laboratory and become his students.
However, Yang Xu not only did not feel happy when he heard this, but his face turned even paler.
