When she got home, the first thing Xu Jinghao did was to take off her clothes. She first stuffed all the clothes that had been touched by Lao Luo into the washing machine, and then she felt a disgusting smell of alcohol on her body, so she stuffed her underwear into the washing machine. Then she went into the bathroom and took a bath for a full hour.
After pouring a glass of cold water into her stomach, Xu Jinghao lay on the sofa, her thoughts returning to her previous conversation with Lao Luo.
"...Zhang Li...disappeared?"
Xu Jinghao sat up suddenly and murmured: "Did Zhang Li not resign? But..."
She didn't dare to think about it anymore and looked at the sky outside the window. The clouds covered the stars. The quiet and profound darkness seemed to hide countless secrets.
"Maybe it's just Lao Luo talking nonsense after drinking." Although she comforted herself like this, Xu Jinghao still couldn't calm down. Recalling the experience of the past few days, Xu Jinghao had already planted the seeds of doubt in her heart, but the heavy work had buried them deep. Tonight, Lao Luo's words finally caused them to take root and sprout out of the ground, growing into thorny vines that surrounded her. entangled in it.
If this question cannot be solved, Xu Jinghao will never feel at ease.
The next day, Xu Jinghao went to work as usual. The company was as busy as usual. She turned around and saw the empty desk behind her, where Zhang Li's seat was originally. She tried to call Zhang Li last night, but all she heard was a shutdown prompt. Did Zhang Li really disappear as Lao Luo said? If so, what exactly did Lao Luo do to Zhang Li
Xu Jinghao was fascinated by Zhang Li's position. Annie couldn't help but patted her and joked: "Your old enemy has resigned. Are you feeling lonely?"
Xu Jinghao was not in the mood to laugh, but frowned and asked Annie, "Do you think it's a little strange?"
"What's weird? There are too many people these days who can't stand the pressure of the workplace and choose to resign."
Xu Jinghao shook her head disapprovingly at Annie's answer, and then asked, "Do you know where Zhang Li lives?"
Annie scratched her head and thought back: "It was recorded in the employee information, but unfortunately it was deleted by Lao Luo after Zhang Li resigned."
"deleted?"
You must know that Lao Luo is completely indifferent to employee information, how could he suddenly delete Zhang Li's information on his own initiative. Thinking of this, Xu Jinghao became more and more suspicious of Lao Luo.
Although Annie was very nervous, she could also tell that Xu Jing had something on her mind. She rolled her eyes and said mysteriously: "If you really want to find her, there is nothing you can do."
"What can I do?" Xu Jinghao became energetic and asked quickly.
Annie suddenly closed her mouth and glanced towards the office door. Just as Xu Jinghao came to understand, she heard Lao Luo's broken gong-like voice.
"What should we talk about first during working hours? Don't you have anything to do?"
Xu Jinghao and Anni didn't dare to answer, so they quickly sat back in their seats and looked like they were working seriously. The sound of footsteps fell by her ears, and Xu Jing knew that it was Lao Luo who was coming over without turning her head. Xu Jinghao forced herself to raise her gaze and saw Lao Luo's sullen expression.
"If you don't finish your work today, be prepared to stay and work overtime!" Putting aside this warning, Lao Luo turned around and left.
Seeing Lao Luo disappear outside the door, Annie whispered: "Strange?"
"What's weird?" Xu Jinghao asked.
"Lao Luo actually didn't eat your tofu today." Annie laughed.
Xu Jing was in no mood to joke with Annie, but she clearly felt that Lao Luo was a little different from usual. Could it be that he remembered the drunken words he said last night? This speculation undoubtedly aggravated Xu Jinghao's suspicion of Lao Luo.
"Give me Zhang Li's address quickly!" Xu Jinghao urged Annie. Regardless of whether Zhang Li was really missing, she must go and confirm it herself.
"It's not for free!" Annie put forward the conditions without haste.
"I'll do whatever you ask for. Find me quickly!" Xu Jinghao agreed without even listening to the conditions. After all, she was too eager to know the truth now.
Annie told Xu Jinghao that although Zhang Li's file was deleted, her information was still retained in past work files. After Xu Jinghao learned about it, she immediately supervised Annie's search for information impatiently. The two of them were quietly busy when they suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the door. Xu Jinghao quickly reminded Annie and sat back down. Through the reflection of the monitor, she noticed that it was two policemen coming!
After discovering that it was not Lao Luo, Annie breathed a sigh of relief and carefully looked through the old information again. Only a few minutes later, Lao Luo suddenly appeared, scaring Annie into screaming. Lao Luo glared at Annie inexplicably, but uncharacteristically did not pursue anything. He just said to Xu Jinghao, "Come to my office, now."
Annie was still in shock just now and patted her chest. When she saw Lao Luo walking away, she became energetic again. She pestered Xu Jinghao and asked, "Have you committed something? There are two policemen in Lao Luo's office!"
Xu Jinghao was also confused about this, but she vaguely felt that something was going on. Lao Luo urged her so hard that Xu Jing didn't even bother to answer Annie and walked out of the office quickly.
As soon as she entered the door, Xu Jinghao saw two policemen, a man and a woman, sitting on the sofa. The first one is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a layer of green stubble at the corner of his mouth. He looks ordinary but has very sharp eyes. Xu Jinghao just looked at him and felt that the other person seemed to be able to see through her heart. A female police officer behind him coughed slightly, and the middle-aged police officer looked away, stood up and saluted Xu Jinghao.
Xu Jinghao looked at the female police officer behind the middle-aged police officer. She had delicate features and she could be seen as a beauty even without makeup. The best proof was that Lao Luo glanced at Ji Qiuhong's eyes from time to time.
The middle-aged police officer introduced himself: "Hello, I am Chief Feng Ye of the Criminal Division, and this is my assistant Ji Qiuhong."
"Hello." Xu Jinghao nodded uneasily, then exclaimed in hindsight: "Criminal Section? What happened?"
"That's it." Ji Qiuhong explained, "Recently we received a report that an employee of your company was missing."
"Former employee!" Lao Luo quickly corrected him.
"Former employee? Could it be..." Xu Jinghao's lips trembled, but she still didn't say anything.
Feng Ye said directly: "The missing person's name is Zhang Li."
Xu Jing never expected that that ominous premonition would become reality so quickly. The moment she heard the news, she glanced at Lao Luo subconsciously. There were no lights on in the office, which cast a dark atmosphere in the room that was already lacking light. Lao Luo leaned on the sofa silently, his whole face sunk in shadow, looking very sinister.
"I heard... Zhang Li had a quarrel with you before she resigned?" Feng Ye spoke calmly, but his eyes were unusually bright.
Xu Jinghao replied while recalling: "Indeed, I found out that she stole the plan I made... "
"Then what?" Feng Ye stared at Xu Jinghao without blinking.
Is he doubting me? Xu Jinghao was a little angry and replied coldly: "Then I fainted. Xiao Du from the company can prove this. He was the one who sent me to the hospital."
"Fainted?" Feng Ye curled up the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to smile, "It is said that you were on sick leave at home at the time, why did you suddenly show up at the company?"
"At that time..." Xu Jing met Feng Ye's eyes when he hesitated, and there was clearly undisguised suspicion in his eyes. Xu Jinghao's voice couldn't help but become louder, "I suspected that she was seducing Du Xian, so I rushed to the company because I was worried. Are you satisfied?"
The door suddenly opened, and Xu Jinghao saw Du Xian walking in. Du Xian seemed to have heard Xu Jinghao's words, no, he must have heard them. Because Du Xian stood motionless at the door, looking straight at Xu Jinghao. In an instant, both of their faces turned red. Feng Ye was still standing by and asked: "Who is Du Xian?"
Lao Luo coughed dryly, pointed to the door and said, "Uh... he is Du Xian."
