Chapter 1351: The Death is Strange
"What are you waiting for if you don't get off the car?"
Even when they arrived at their home, Nie Xiaoguang was still hesitant and sat in the car without getting out.
Li Xuewu also found it funny and motioned Xiaoxiao to go into the yard first. He then opened the car door and greeted the boy.
"Brother, I won't go in."
Nie Xiaoguang smiled reservedly and looked around the yard somewhat embarrassedly. Xiaoxiao was walking in.
Li Xuewu looked back following his gaze, then looked at him and asked, "Are you launching another love attack?"
"You just finished mourning your lost love, how come you came out of the haze of pain so quickly?"
"I have a strong psychological quality."
Nie Xiaoguang gripped the steering wheel and said with a smile: "I really didn't mean it just now. I thought she was pretty, so..."
"One couldn't help it, huh?"
Li Xuewu chuckled, patted the roof of the car, and waved, "Stop talking nonsense, get off, and have dinner before leaving."
"You can't hold back any more. You can't fall in love with everyone you meet. After being with me for so long, haven't you learned to be loyal in love?"
“Hey, you didn’t teach me that either.”
Nie Xiaoguang was indeed a very embarrassed person. He only felt embarrassed in front of Xiaoxiao, and he did not feel the slightest bit of shame towards Li Xuewu.
Tutoring for leaders’ children?
Are there any regulations that prohibit this?
"If you were more serious, you wouldn't be so frivolous." Li Xuewu waved his hand to signal him to park the car in the garage, and he walked towards the yard.
There was only a little snow today, and it stopped in the morning, so there was no snow on the path in the yard.
The vegetable gardens on both sides were covered with a thick layer of snow, but that was the remnant of the previous heavy snowfalls.
Under the light of the villa, the reflection of the snow was very beautiful, but Li Xuewu had no intention of appreciating it because it was more lively in the house.
"This is my teacher, Mr. Hu."
Li Shu was like a little adult, standing in the foyer and introducing teachers Hu and Xiaoxiao, showing the enthusiasm and liveliness of the host family.
"This is my piano and dance teacher, Teacher Xiao."
"Hello, Teacher Hu." Xiaoxiao greeted Teacher Hu politely while dealing with the enthusiastic Li Shu.
"Hello, hello." Teacher Hu's expression was a little strange, as if he was stunned and seemed to be confused.
She came back with Li Shu. Because of the home visit, there was no need for Li Xuewu to pick up the child from school.
But after arriving at Li Shu's house, her eyes were not enough and she didn't know how to ask the questions she had prepared long ago.
Western-style villas are not uncommon in this area, and she is also familiar with even the nicer courtyards.
But she had rarely seen such an exquisite courtyard with such luxurious interior decoration and furnishings.
Especially the high-end piano placed in the area connecting the living room and the corridor. It was the first time she saw it in a student's home.
The fact that Teacher Hu was interested in the song humming by Li Shu proved that he had a certain ability to appreciate music and had a certain grasp of musical instruments.
Because of this, even though the piano was covered, she could still recognize at a glance that the piano was worth a lot of money.
The foreign-style villas are equipped with waiters, and they are either rich or noble. There are rich people these days, but they are all very low-key.
Not everyone can afford a nanny, nor does everyone dare to use one. Anyone who dares to use a nanny must be a noble person.
Considering the situation of Li Shu's parents, Teacher Hu has re-evaluated the level and conditions of Li Shu's father in his mind.
You can enjoy high-end imported cars, live in such a nice house, and enjoy the care of a nanny.
Speaking of the nanny, from the time she entered the door until now, she only made her a cup of tea and then went to the kitchen to do some work.
When Li Shu asked when her father and mother would get off work, the nanny was cautious and answered her vaguely.
She didn’t know who trained this nanny, nor did she know what the taboos were. Until now, she still hadn’t figured out the situation in this family.
Li Shu's mother is a doctor, and she knows this very well. It is possible that she will get off work late, but Li Shu's father had clearly already made arrangements.
Just as she was hesitating whether to leave first and come back on Sunday, the sound of a car was heard at the door.
Li Shu, who was playing with her younger brother, was the first to react and ran to the door loudly.
The first person to come in was not Li Shu's father, nor Li Shu's mother, but a young girl.
Teacher Hu was confused, but Li Shu took the initiative to introduce them to each other. Only then did she realize that the other person had a tutor.
No wonder, no wonder Li Shu showed certain talent in dancing and singing in kindergarten.
It turns out that he has a tutor.
That's not right. When a family hires a tutor, they usually hire a teacher who specializes in academic subjects.
But Li Shu has just started kindergarten.
Another thing, why did you hire an art teacher who is so comprehensive and works so hard to educate the children?
"You guys have said hello, right?"
Li Xuewu walked into the lobby and saw two teachers standing there awkwardly, so he smiled and asked them to sit inside.
Teacher Hu glanced at Teacher Xiaoxiao, and then exchanged some polite words with Li Shu's father before sitting down in the living room.
Xiaoxiao takes time out every week to teach Li Shu lessons, including piano, singing and dancing.
Unless I could not catch the Secretary-General's car, I would wait for him downstairs and then go home together.
After the evening class, the secretary-general's driver would take her home. The salary was 15 yuan per month, which was a very generous salary.
"Dad, I showed Teacher Hu the way, and we came home together—"
Li Shu was eager to show off her achievements, so she waited for her father to sit down before coming over to explain, holding her little head high, waiting for his praise.
Li Xuewu smiled and glanced at Teacher Hu, then stroked his daughter's hair and said, "Li Shu is so smart. She even knows the way home."
"Yes——" Li Shu nodded with satisfaction, then sat down beside him obediently, looking at Teacher Hu like an adult.
Teacher Hu looked at Li Shu's father with some curiosity, and then talked a few words about Li Shu's performance in school, some good and some bad, but it was not a criticism, but more like a report.
Li Xuewu listened very carefully, and at the same time communicated and explained about Li Shu's behavior at home, and explained one by one the personality traits his daughter showed at school.
Li Shu was a little nervous when she first heard what the teacher said, but after she heard what her father said, especially about her education, the stone in her heart fell down and she sat close to her father unconsciously.
"I'm sorry to trouble you—"
In summary, Li Shu is still a good student and an excellent socialist successor.
"Dad Li Shu, I still have a question in my mind."
Teacher Hu accepted Li Shu's father's politeness, but did not end today's home visit immediately. Instead, he continued the topic from the morning.
"It's about that nursery rhyme, right?"
Before the other party could ask, Li Xuewu spoke first, smiled at her and said, "Actually, I just hummed it to please the child."
“What about the creative environment?”
Teacher Hu glanced meaningfully at Teacher Xiao, who was sitting silently on the other side. She suspected that Li Shu's father was lying.
Xiaoxiao also noticed her look, but the secretary general was still speaking, so she couldn't interrupt and could only bear it.
"As for the creative environment..." Li Xuewu took a sip of hot tea, put down the cup in his hand, and said, "You may not have noticed when you came here, but when you turn right from our house and walk to the end, there is an artificial lake with many wild ducks."
This is a perfect explanation. When he left kindergarten in the morning, he was thinking about how to remedy this problem.
"What about the bridge?" Teacher Hu pressed on, looking into his eyes and asking, "Is there a bridge from the artificial lake to your home?"
"There is no big bridge, but there is a small bridge."
Seeing Teacher Hu's seriousness, Li Xuewu explained with a smile: "It's a small bridge for us, but for the children, it may be a very big bridge."
"So that's how it is—"
Teacher Hu looked at Li Shu's father doubtfully, then turned to look at Teacher Xiao and asked, "Did you also participate in the creation of this song?"
The question was a bit offensive, but it also left enough room for Xiaoxiao to maneuver. It also forced Xiaoxiao into a corner, forcing her to explain.
In fact, she didn't need to force her. Xiaoxiao was worried that she would not have the chance to explain. She didn't dare to covet the secretary-general's talent and creation.
"You misunderstood. I am just Li Shu's tutor."
Xiaoxiao's answer was very serious and solemn: "I work in the Art Troupe of the Red Star Steel Group Literature and Art Publishing House."
"Because I have been exposed to dance since I was young, and learned piano and singing from my teacher when I grew up, I had the opportunity to be invited by Secretary-General Li to tutor Li Shu."
She raised her eyebrows and continued, "During the teaching process, I understand that Li Shu cannot master advanced skills due to her age, so I only taught her the basics."
“Including the singing of songs. The nursery rhyme you mentioned also amazed me when I heard it for the first time.”
Xiaoxiao looked at Li Xuewu and nodded in admiration. Seeing the secretary-general smiling modestly, she looked at Teacher Hu and said, "I can prove that this nursery rhyme was composed by the secretary-general for Li Shu."
She walked to the piano, took out a piece of music from the cabinet next to the piano and handed it to Teacher Hu.
"What the leader told me is exactly the same as what I explained to you. This song only has lyrics and melody for humming, but no sheet music."
Xiaoxiao pointed to the music score in the other party's hand and explained, "I wrote down the tune that Secretary-General and Li Shu sang, and asked the comrades in the art troupe to help me arrange the music. Take a look."
"This——" Teacher Hu was really surprised.
She looked at the music score in her hand, including the complete lyrics, as if she had found a treasure. When she looked up again, her eyes were full of respect and admiration.
The respect comes from the catchy lyrics and tune creation, and the admiration is for a father who loves his daughter so much.
"Dad Li Shu, you are really——"
Teacher Hu really couldn't find the right words to describe Li Shu's father for a moment.
To say that he is talented seems monotonous, but to say that he is a good father sounds empty. It is really confusing.
"Teacher Hu, you may not know this." Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and explained with great concern: "Our secretary-general is also a writer and has published three professional theory books."
“This is really——”
"Okay, I'm going to get embarrassed if you keep talking."
Li Xuewu really didn't dare to let them continue talking. Didn't he see that the girls around him already admired him like little swans?
He used a little joke to ease Mr. Hu's embarrassment and excitement, and also made Xiaoxiao understand what he meant.
Low-key, he doesn't need admiration from kindergarten teachers, he really didn't mean to sing this song.
While they were talking, Gu Ning came in carrying a bag. She was surprised to see so many people in the living room.
"I'm back." Li Xuewu stood up with a smile and explained to Gu Ning, "Mr. Hu from Li Shu's kindergarten came to visit our home."
"Hello, Madam Li Shu." Teacher Hu also stood up and explained to Li Xuewu with a smile, "We have met before."
"Hello, Mr. Hu, welcome to our home."
Gu Ning behaved quite generously. When he greeted Teacher Hu, he also looked at Xiaoxiao and nodded, motioning her to sit down.
After a few pleasantries, Gu Ning was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say next. Fortunately, Erya came out at this time and said that dinner was ready.
"I'm sorry, Li Shu's father and mother." Teacher Hu took the bag beside her embarrassedly and explained, "I didn't expect you to get off work so late, I will go home first..."
"Haven't we finished talking yet?"
Li Xuewu understood what Teacher Hu meant, that he did not pay attention to the time of the home visit and wanted to go back to avoid dinner.
This is how it is these days, clothing and food are very scarce issues, and generally, you won't eat at someone else's house if you don't have personal connections.
Because you don’t know whether the meal you eat is the rations squeezed out by others, and you might go hungry at the end of the month.
Li Xuewu's family had no such concerns. It was time for dinner, and it was even more impossible for them to let Teacher Hu leave.
He had called back on purpose and told Erya to move up the dinner time so that he could treat the teacher to a simple meal.
"Dad Li Shu, I'm so sorry." Teacher Hu looked at Li Xuewu apologetically and explained, "I want to use your creation to teach the children and prepare for the spring art performance."
"Let's talk while we eat. Okay." Li Xuewu did not refuse. Instead, he raised his hand to let the teacher go to the restaurant.
Teacher Hu waved his hands and said politely: "No, no, if it's inconvenient for you, I will..."
She didn't say anything else, she just really liked this song, and other teachers in the school liked it too.
Li Xuewu also saw what she meant, smiled and pointed to the restaurant, saying, "Everything will be easy after you have this meal."
"Teacher, please stay."
Li Shu was also polite. She took Teacher Hu's hand and led her towards the restaurant.
Teacher Hu felt even more embarrassed, but he could not refuse the family's invitation, so he could only follow them into the restaurant.
Nie Xiaoguang appeared in the restaurant like an invisible man, and after hearing the greetings at the restaurant door, he looked at Teacher Hu with a more scrutinizing look.
Actually, kindergarten teachers are pretty good.
***
Teacher Hu felt a little awkward during the meal. He felt embarrassed, grateful, and a little surprised.
During the few seconds or ten seconds they met at the school gate, it was impossible to tell what Li Shu's family situation was.
During the more than one hour of the home visit, including the time for the meal, she really felt the difference.
Li Shu's father is witty and gentle, with a loyal side and a humorous side.
Li Shu's mother, on the other hand, looked a little cold, but she wasn't stiff in her words and wasn't difficult to get along with.
Finally, there is the family’s service staff, including nannies, drivers and tutors. The lineup is truly luxurious and rich.
She had not been working for many years and had only heard colleagues talk about Red Star Steel Group, so she didn't know much about the enterprise.
She had a very vague idea of what the group's secretary-general was, but now it became more concrete.
At the dinner table, Teacher Hu praised the nursery rhyme "Counting Ducks" again and again and conducted comprehensive reading comprehension.
Li Xuewu was confused by these compliments. He had never noticed before that this song had so much mystery and interest in both the lyrics and the emotions.
Let’s put it this way, this song fully meets the standards and requirements of “study hard and make progress every day”.
Counting ducks is meant to be entertaining and educational, and incorporates mathematical knowledge into the program. The second half even encourages children to study hard and strive for good grades in an interesting way.
Teacher Hu not only praised the quality of the nursery rhyme, but also praised Li Xuewu's seriousness and enthusiasm in educating children.
Li Shu really loves her father and chattered away many interesting stories about her time with her father.
Frequent trips to Dahu Lake have become a source of inspiration for Mr. Hu's own creative works.
After dinner, Li Xuewu asked Xiaoxiao to teach Li Shu to play and sing this nursery rhyme on the piano in the living room. Teacher Hu listened very carefully.
When it comes to caring about her children's education, Gu Ning is not an indifferent person. Seeing her daughter happily cooperating with the performance, she also held her son and sat on the sofa with Li Xuewu to enjoy the show.
Ring ring ring——
It was the ringing of the phone that interrupted Li Shu's nursery rhyme performance. She looked back at the direction of the phone in annoyance.
At this time, Dad had already answered the phone and waved to them apologetically.
The call came from the duty room of the General Management Department. There was only one piece of news: Zheng Xudong, vice president of the Food Corporation, had died.
It was obvious to the people in the room that the smile on his face had frozen. Although he tried hard to smile after hanging up the phone, the atmosphere still became cold.
The aura of the head of the family can easily interfere with the rest of the family. Gu Ning looked at him with some worry. Although he didn't say anything, everything was revealed in his eyes.
"There's something going on at work and I need to go over there to handle it."
Li Xuewu stood up with a smile, waved to Xiaoxiao and Teacher Hu who also stood up, and said, "You continue."
"Oh, right." He patted Gu Ning's waist to show that everything was fine, and then said to Teacher Hu: "Xiao Guang will take me to work first, and then he will be back soon and take you guys."
"It's okay, Li Shu's father."
Teacher Hu said politely, "I can ride my bike back."
She was so busy watching Teacher Xiaoxiao play the piano and teach Li Shu to sing that she forgot to look at the time on her hand.
It was already dark outside the window, but how could I feel comfortable asking Li Shu's parents to send her off?
"You're welcome. It's a little late."
Li Xuewu walked to the hallway, took off his coat and put it on, still saying, "It's not safe to go back at this time. You should wait a while. Teacher Xiaoxiao also needs to go home."
"This..." Teacher Hu hesitated for a moment. Seeing that Li Shu's father was about to leave, the work was really urgent and there was no time to refuse, so he had to respond: "Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It's what we should do. You're welcome."
Before Li Xuewu left, he glanced at Gu Ning, then waved to Li Shu and Li Ning who had followed him, and gave them a few instructions with a smile.
It was not until Li Xuewu and the driver left that the people in the room realized that the call was really sudden.
Teacher Hu didn't know the truth, but Xiaoxiao and Erya knew that this family rarely received calls from the unit.
Li Xuewu even emphasized that he would not bring work home.
For a moment, everyone lost their interest.
***
International Hotel, top floor, superior room.
When Li Xuewu arrived, people from the International Hotel and the Security Department were already waiting for him at the door.
Due to special considerations, the International Hotel did not develop the situation upstairs, so it looks no different from usual here.
But he seemed relaxed on the outside but tense on the inside. Han Yating and Zhou Yao were standing downstairs, waiting for him to deal with the matter.
Some people may ask, since the case has happened, we just need to follow the procedures, why would we call Li Xuewu?
This is the problem. If we really follow the procedure, there is no need to call him. The person who should handle this matter is Wang Xiaoqin, or the supervisor Su Weide.
The purpose was to let Li Xuewu get the first-hand information, so Han Yating reported the situation to the duty room of the Comprehensive Management Department before notifying the Security Department.
Su Weide is the head of the Security Department, and Li Xuewu is the head of the International Hotel. There is nothing wrong with reporting in this way.
Moreover, after receiving the report, the Security Department reported it to Zhou Yao. Zhou Yao followed the procedure and went to the scene to confirm before deciding whether to report it and inquire about the handling methods.
So, the time difference and information gap are stuck here.
When Li Xuewu arrived, Su Weide and others must not have known about it yet, not even Wang Xiaoqin knew.
Sometimes, the procedure must be correct.
Han Yating and Zhou Yao not only followed the procedures correctly, but also made the right choices.
Even if they were not in the vortex, the two of them knew very well that Zheng Xudong was the key figure that the Secretary-General had been planning for a long time.
Starting from the freight station, to Li Baihui, and then to Zheng Xudong, they didn't know what the Secretary-General was planning, but they knew that they had to cooperate with the Secretary-General in this matter.
"Secretary-General—"
As soon as Li Xuewu got out of the car, the two of them came out of the hall one after another and greeted him proactively.
"Well, how's the situation?"
Waving his hand, indicating that Nie Xiaoguang could go back, Li Xuewu walked up the stairs and started asking questions as he walked.
Han Yating first glanced at Zhou Yao, and seeing that the other party was humble and asked her to speak first, she was no longer polite.
"At 7:10 tonight, the secretary of Mr. Mercedes, the vice president of Santaya Group, called and informed the front desk that a VIP would be using the room tomorrow."
"After receiving the other party's request, the front desk immediately notified the cleaner on the floor where the room was located to clean it."
"Because it is a long-term private room, there are many of Mr. Mercedes' personal belongings in the room, and no one usually goes there."
Han Yating introduced as she walked: "Because it is a VIP room, the cleaning staff is doubled."
"This fully protects the innocence of the hotel."
She said with lingering fear: "Two cleaners opened the door of the private room at around 7:20, and then found a man lying on the sofa in the living room."
"According to the cleaning staff, the two first greeted each other, but when they saw that the other person did not respond, they walked over and pushed him, only to find that the person had been dead for a long time."
"The cleaning staff followed the emergency procedures and reported the situation to the front desk by phone at around 7:25, and the front desk reported it to the hotel duty room."
Han Yating raised her hand to signal the elevator attendant to open the elevator, invited Li Xuewu to go in first, and then came in with Zhou Yao.
"I received the report at 7:. After I arrived, I went upstairs to check the basic situation and recognized the dead man as Zheng Xudong, the vice president of the Food Corporation."
She glanced at Li Xuewu and continued, "At 7:45, I will first report to the General Management Department and then to the Security Department."
It can be heard that because she used to be the head of the security department, Han Yating's report is very organized.
In the elevator, Li Xuewu, Han Yating and Zhou Yao, the third generation chiefs of the Red Star Factory's security department, talked about the case without any nonsense.
When the elevator reached the top floor, the atmosphere became a little different. A security guard from the security department was guarding the door. When he saw them coming up, he took the initiative to greet them.
Li Xuewu nodded and continued walking inside until he stopped at the door of an open room with several people inside.
"I applied for the city bureau's professional forensic team."
Zhou Yao reported: "The preliminary estimate is that the time of death should be around 1 to 3 o'clock yesterday morning."
"Fortunately, the room is kept at a constant temperature, so the time of death can be accurately determined."
Zhou Yao helped Li Xuewu put on a mask and took a pair of gloves, and then they entered the crime scene together.
Li Xuewu did not intend to go over and take a closer look, but just stood at the door and looked to see if the person lying on the sofa was Zheng Xudong.
Han Yating did not recognize the wrong person. This was indeed the vice president of the Food Corporation and the person being investigated by the Discipline Inspection Commission.
"After receiving the report, we immediately arranged for the criminal team to arrive at the scene for investigation. I rushed here directly from home."
Zhou Yao continued to report: "After arriving at the hotel, I discussed with the comrades who arrived earlier, and then called the Municipal Bureau for help. The forensic team had just arrived."
"Well, have you called the supervisor?"
Li Xuewu nodded and carefully observed everything in the room, as if he could see something.
This room is considered retro and luxurious in this era. In fact, the furniture is not complicated. He wanted to trace the reasons and details of Zheng Xudong's death here through the items at the scene.
However, without more evidence and content to support it, it is incomplete and incorrect to just rely on your brain.
So he didn't stay in the room, just took a look and returned to the corridor.
"Did the two cleaners take statements?"
"Yes, it's done." Zhou Yao responded, taking the transcript from behind and handing it to Li Xuewu, "We marked the cleaner's movements after entering the house to facilitate comparative investigation."
There was nothing special in the transcript. Li Xuewu read it out of habit, after all, he had worked in the security department.
After closing the transcript, he looked up at Zhou Yao and said, "This case is rather special. You should report it to your superiors according to the procedure."
"Okay, I'll report the situation here to Deputy Manager Yu right away." Seeing his arrangement, Zhou Yao agreed.
But Li Xuewu was not satisfied. He nodded and emphasized, "Let's talk to Comrade Xiaoqin, okay?"
After saying this, without waiting for Zhou Yao to respond, he walked towards the stairs, indicating that he was leaving.
Zhou Yao looked at Han Yating in confusion, not understanding what the leader meant.
Han Yating is her senior, so she will naturally take care of her.
Raising her hand and pressing Zhou Yao's arm, Han Yating said softly, "Just follow the leader's instructions and follow the procedures."
After saying that, she nodded and went after Li Xuewu again.
At the stairs, Li Xuewu did not choose to take the elevator, but walked down. Han Yating caught up with him and asked, "Leader, what should our hotel do next?"
"Pay attention to the impact and deal with it as soon as possible."
Li Xuewu sighed. It was useless to cover up something like this. The customer would definitely know about it.
In service places, this kind of thing is quite taboo, and both business and service will be affected.
In the middle of the night, even the waiter would be nervous and scared walking in the empty corridor, right?
"I need a phone to report the situation here to my superiors."
"Okay, no problem." Han Yating saw Li Xuewu's calmness, and he should have figured out what to do by now.
In fact, Zheng Xudong's death was not worth it. Han Yating was a bystander and could see it clearly. She could see that the case was almost over.
What Li Xuewu needed was nothing more than a bargaining chip and an opportunity for fair communication. He didn't even understand what a tool was.
The case happened to him. His problem was quite serious, but not serious enough to warrant the death penalty.
She saw it more clearly. Zhou Zechuan's move of surrounding him but not destroying him was just to force him to confess the problem voluntarily.
If his problem was really serious, why would Zhou Zechuan resort to this trick? He probably didn't want to force him to death.
Explain the problem and implicate the person behind it. This is the key to Li Xuewu's plan and also the goal that Zhou Zechuan passively wants to achieve.
In fact, up to now, it is not difficult for Han Yating to see that whether Zheng Xudong is dead or alive, he cannot escape the trap of being pursued and exploited.
On the other hand, for Secretary-General Li Xuewu, even if Zheng Xudong died, it would not affect the overall situation.
After sending him to the door of the lounge, Han Yating stood in the corridor for a long time, listening to the voice of the phone call inside. Then she sighed and then pulled herself together to do the follow-up work.
-
boom--
It was the first time that Deputy Director Su's office door was pushed open so rudely, and the visitor showed no courtesy at all.
"Deputy Director Liang, you——"
Gu Cheng was also anxious. He just blocked the door, but Liang Zuodong rushed in directly.
He usually called him Deputy Manager Liang, but this time, in a panic, he actually called him by his previous title.
Liang Zuodong ignored him, his eyes bloodshot, staring at Deputy Director Su, whose face was livid behind the desk, and roared in suppressed anger: "How dare you kill him!"
"What nonsense are you talking about—"
Su Weide slammed the table so hard that the teacups on the table jumped up, which showed how strong he was and how quick his temper was.
How could he not be anxious? Listen to what kind of bullshit question Liang Zuodong asked. How could he possibly kill someone?
Li Xuewu would not let anyone get away with it. Zheng Xudong finally died, so of course he would make good use of it.
As for the group leaders, he informed everyone in chronological order as long as they were related.
He also asked the duty room of the General Management Department to file a record of those who were not involved, and notified the secretary first, so that he knew everything when he got to work in the morning.
Zheng Xudong cannot die in vain!
"What nonsense am I talking about? What nonsense are you talking about!"
Liang Zuodong was also anxious, pointing at Su Weide and cursing hysterically, "Why did you kill him!"
"Bullshit, get out!"
Su Weide slammed the table and stood up, pointing his finger at Gu Cheng who was standing at the door in a dilemma.
Gu Cheng was a typical example of someone who was affected by the fire in the city. He was not annoyed at this moment and simply left the office.
He originally wanted to watch the fun, but his leader didn't give him the opportunity. Could it be that his leader had already seen that he had a rebellious mind?
As soon as the traitor Gu Cheng left, Su Weide frowned and emphasized: "I didn't, how could I kill Zheng Xudong?"
"Who else but you——"
Liang Zuodong gnashed his teeth and said, "It was you who asked us to contact the Santaya Group, and it was you who asked us to deal with Cheng Kaiyuan. What else do you want to say!"
"Let your dog fart, you're crazy!"
Su Weide glanced at the door cautiously, then leaned over, stared into Liang Zuodong's eyes and asked, "Do you know what you are talking about, huh?"
"I know I have nowhere else to go."
Liang Zuodong is really like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, or he is like a person on a cliff with nowhere to live.
He spread his hands, looked at Su Weide and said, "Zheng Xudong died in the International Hotel, in the room of the Mercedes."
"What did I tell you the other day? Don't provoke him. Just be calm and wait for him to fall into the trap. Isn't that okay?"
Liang Zuodong stared with bloodshot eyes and said fiercely: "Do you know what it means for him to die there?"
"ah?--"
He said loudly: "The case is too big, you can't suppress it, Mercedes has been exposed, and we will all die!"
Su Weide had a cold face and stared at Liang Zuodong as if he was looking at a dead person. At this moment, he really wanted to kill him.
Because Liang Zuodong was the only one who knew everything and he was his final defense. But now in the office, with his skills, if he wanted to deal with Liang Zuodong, it would just be a fight between two weaklings.
Besides, Liang Zuodong died in his office and he would not survive, so there was no point in thinking about it now.
"You know what Mercedes said?"
Liang Zuodong pursed his lips, revealed a sad smile, and said, "He said he had an alibi, but he couldn't prove why Zheng Xudong appeared in his long-term private room."
"Do you know how Zheng Xudong got into his room?"
Liang Zuodong reached out and tapped Su Weide's chest, and whispered, "He entered with his key and ID, and walked in openly, wanting everyone to know—"
"Zhou Yao from the Security Department has already started investigating Zheng Xudong's social relationships, did you know that?"
The sound of his voice became louder and louder, almost deafening Su Weide, but he endured it.
Seeing Liang Zuodong going crazy, Su Weide's heart sank to the bottom. He never expected Zheng Xudong to commit suicide.
Why won’t Zheng Xudong commit suicide?
Because this matter is not enough to kill him. At most he will be sentenced to decades in prison. At worst he can compensate the other party.
But the current situation is that Zheng Xudong has gone to extremes and is dragging them all down with his own life.
If Zheng Xudong could hold on in that position, they would always have a chance to help him reduce his crime or even settle the matter.
But once Zheng Xudong falls, what will be exposed behind him will be more than just a little bit.
"You know, Zheng Xudong told me that he has something in his hand." Liang Zuodong tapped Su Weide's chest and asked sternly, "Deputy Director Su, are you really not afraid of death?"
"I didn't kill him, and I couldn't have killed him."
Su Weide was in a state of confusion. He looked at Liang Zuodong and stressed, "The cause of his death has not been determined yet, and you are making random accusations. What if he was murdered? Who killed him?"
"Who is it? Deputy Director Su, please tell me——"
At this moment, the expressions of the two people in the office became stiff. They were arguing so fiercely just now that they forgot to look at the door.
Su Wei De was used to it. If someone dared to peek into his office, he would know that his secretary Gu Cheng was guarding outside.
Even if someone came, Gu Cheng should have stopped him or reminded him...
Damn it! Gu Cheng misled me!
The two turned their heads to look at the door, and saw Zhou Yao from the Security Department who Liang Zuodong had just mentioned, standing there staring at them with narrowed eyes.
I saw a ghost——
There is no doubt that Gu Cheng did it on purpose, letting people in to listen to their conversation. It was so loud that he must have heard it a long time ago.
What we have to worry about now is how much Zhou Yao has heard?
"I've been listening for quite a while, it's really exciting—" Zhou Yao walked slowly into the office, raised an eyebrow and said, "I didn't have the heart to interrupt the two leaders, I just happened to hear some unexpected surprises."
"Cough——" Liang Zuodong's face turned red at this time, and he looked like he was about to die from a cerebral hemorrhage at any time.
He felt uncomfortable and coughed forcefully. Then he felt he could breathe again, but his face turned pale again, as if he was dying.
"Deputy Director Su, how about you tell me?"
Zhou Yao was really ruthless. She stared into Su Weide's eyes and asked, "You just mentioned that Zheng Xudong was murdered. You know who killed him, right?"
"I—how should I know?"
Su Weide had long been impatient with being asked questions. Why did Zheng Xudong die? Everyone came to ask him, is he a god?
"I don't know. Aren't you the director of the Security Department? You've seen the scene, don't you know who killed him?"
"I came to ask you two precisely because I saw the scene—"
Zhou Yao deliberately set an ambush, and with a sharp look, she glanced at the two of them and said in a feminine voice, "How about Deputy Manager Liang go back with us to investigate first? That way we can get to the bottom of it, what do you think?"
"I-I have no questions to ask."
Liang Zuodong was almost unable to stand. He didn't expect Zhou Yao to stare at him so quickly. He turned to look at Su Weide, looking for help.
"Oh, there are so many questions—"
Zhou Yao pulled the corner of her mouth and said casually, "We found the note you wrote to Zheng Xudong at the scene."
"What? What note?" Liang Zuodong was stunned. "I didn't write him any note!"
Su Weide looked at him, his eyes becoming sharp. Could this grandson be crying thief?
Could it be that Liang Zuodong killed Zheng Xudong?
If that was the case, then what was his intention in killing him in the Mercedes's private room? Was he targeting me?
Something is wrong. Something is wrong!
Su Weide couldn't figure out the reason why Liang Zuodong committed suicide, but now Zheng Xudong is dead, and his death is very strange.
Something must have gone wrong. By the way, where did the materials in Zheng Xudong's hands go, as Liang Zuodong mentioned just now?
If you think so...
