Chapter 24

Views:

When Song Shu's rationality completely disappeared, a very inopportune phone call came into her cell phone.

Song Shu turned his head to look at the cell phone that had fallen into the grass not far away and was lit up, then turned back to look at Qin Lou who was lying on top of him.

The air was silent for two seconds.

"Boss Qin, I need to take a call."

"'Boss Qin'?"

"..." When Song Shu was hesitating whether to change his words, Qin Lou, who didn't know what he had figured out, turned over and sat next to him, leaning on the grass with one hand and pointing at his phone with the other.

Song Shu sat up and stared at him for two seconds.

After confirming that Qin Lou's emotions seemed to have calmed down, Song Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief. She stood up and walked over to pick up the phone, and looked at the caller ID on it.

"jerry".

Song Shu frowned lightly, walked aside, and after making sure that Qin Lou couldn't hear her, she answered the phone.

"Jerry?"

"Qin, you finally answered the phone."

"What happened?"

"I have captured several special query access records today, all of which are related to your personal resume information at school and company, and these query access records come from two different IP addresses in Q City."

"You mean there are at least two parties investigating me?"

"That's right."

"..." Song Shu frowned slightly, and subconsciously looked back in the direction of Qin Lou. Then she turned around and asked, "Can you find the specific physical address?"

"I'm sorry, Qin. I'm afraid I can't. The other party is experienced and should be a professional organization. They used a few tricks through the chicken computer. It took a lot of effort for me to lock it in Q City."

"Did the other party find out anything?"

"Haha, of course not. You have to trust my skills. Besides, didn't you anticipate and take precautions against this before returning home?"

"Yeah, I'm glad you're here. There may be more of these things, and I'll have to trouble you again in the future."

"If it weren't for your help in the case two years ago, I would have been in that damn iron cage without any internet connection now - so you don't need to be polite, we are helping each other."

"Thank you anyway, Jerry."

"Okay. How's it going over there?"

“It’s hard to say.”

"You know you're putting yourself in danger, right, baby? I don't understand why I would agree to you using myself as bait."

"Jerry, we've already discussed this."

"Well, you are still so stubborn, I won't persuade you. Just enjoy your disaster."

"… "

After the call ended, Song Shu still held the phone in her hand without putting it down - she needed to give herself some time to reflect on the actions she had taken without thinking after coming up to the rooftop.

By the end of the one minute of reflection, Song Shu was already feeling a little desperate.

Before returning home, she had guessed that Qin Lou would have a great impact on her overall plan and would be the most unstable and high-risk factor around her, but she did not expect that this person's influence on her would reach such an extent that he could even make her completely emotional and be completely brought into the world of that madman.

Fortunately, although she had not anticipated this influence, she had considered the threat posed by Qin Lou to the overall plan, so she had an alternative plan B.

However, this plan requires a suitable opportunity...

While Song Shu was thinking about the best candidate in his mind, he walked back to the artificial grass.

"Boss Qin, it's getting late. I'll take you back downstairs to rest."

Qin Lou raised his eyes, "How do you know I live downstairs?"

Song Shu answered calmly, "When the Human Resources Department took me in, they already introduced the distribution of departments on each floor to me."

“… the response was good.”

Qin Lou smiled and stood up.

The two took the elevator to the 23rd floor, and Song Shu followed Qin Lou inside without objection.

"Turn on the lights." Qin Lou turned on the lights on the 23rd floor, then walked to the soft leather sofa and sat down. His long legs lazily draped over the carpet, his upper body leaning against the back of the sofa.

He looked up at Song Shu and patted the armrest of the sofa.

"There's something strange. A few days ago, I was drunk at home alone, but when I woke up, I saw a very small woman's handprint here - oh, right, it was the day you started working, isn't it a coincidence?"

"It's a coincidence indeed." Song Shu's expression was calm. "I wanted to go to the rooftop to get some fresh air that day, but I went to the 23rd floor by mistake. But I stayed there for a short time, so Mr. Qin should be able to find it by checking the elevator surveillance."

Qin Lou narrowed his eyes slightly.

After a few seconds he laughed, "I know. No matter what I ask you now, you will deny it - including what happened on the rooftop just now, right? But aren't you afraid that I will use myself to force you to admit it?"

"… "

Song Shu lowered her eyes, a hint of helplessness flashing across her eyes.

Qin Lou stared at her expression for two seconds, then laughed even more happily: "Ah, you are not afraid anymore. Because you know that no matter how you explain, I have already determined that you must be her."

Song Shu: “…”

Qin Lou bent forward, resting his elbows on his knees. He looked up at her and smiled wantonly and proudly: "How about it, is my current clamshell language translation skill still full marks?"

Song Shu: “…”

Song Shu pretended not to hear the strange words, "Boss Qin, you can think whatever you want. It doesn't matter to me. I just have one thing and one question to ask Boss Qin."

Qin Lou: "You say."

"Since the surveillance footage on the rooftop today is your personal property, please do not share it with anyone else."

"Okay, what's the problem?"

"Has President Qin investigated me?"

Qin Lou didn't even think about it, "No, because there's no need."

Song Shu's heart moved.

… It seems that someone can no longer hold back.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin. I'll go back first."

"Even after asking this question, you still refuse to admit it directly." Qin Lou frowned, "Do you not trust the people around me? Or do you think that what you are doing will implicate me? You know, I am not afraid of anything except losing you-"

"But I'm afraid."

A very soft voice came from the woman with her back to Qin Lou.

So light it seems like an illusion.

Song Shu held the cell phone in his hand, hiding it where he couldn't see it. His fingertips were pale from being pressed, and his face was equally bloodless.

She couldn't afford to lose anyone anymore.

Before every person involved in the case is caught, she would rather die as Qin Qing.

Qin Lou, who was sitting on the sofa, came back to his senses and stood up suddenly. "What did you say?"

“…Nothing, Mr. Qin must have heard wrong. It’s already very late, I’ll go home first.” After saying that, Song Shu walked out without looking back.

"Do you want me to delete the surveillance video in the elevator?"

"No need to bother Mr. Qin."

"What are you going to do?"

Song Shu walked out with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, his eyes slightly cold, "Next week, President Qin will know."

"… "

After Song Shu's figure disappeared in the elevator, Qin Lou returned to the bedroom with a gloomy face.

He picked up the phone and made a call.

"Mr. Qin?"

"Is that drunk driver still in jail?"

"Drunk driver? Oh, of course, that was your order, Mr. Qin. Besides, his family went bankrupt because of Bai Song, so his motive for intentional homicide is clear. Mr. Qin, don't worry, he will still be unable to die in the remaining decades."

"I want to see him."

"-ha??"

When Song Shu walked out of the elevator and saw Yu Qisheng standing in front of the opposite wall, she suddenly remembered that he was still there.

"I'm sorry for making you—"

"Is it settled?"

"Um."

"That's good. But it's too late. I'll just take you home."

“… I’m really sorry, Qisheng.”

"It's okay, let's get in the car and talk about it."

The two picked up the car in the parking lot and left.

On the way, Yu Qisheng observed Song Shu's expression and said, "You look a little worried. Did Qin Lou make things difficult for you again?"

"fine."

"I told you that he would definitely recognize you, which would greatly increase your danger to those people - so I didn't agree with your plan from the beginning, but you insisted on taking the risk yourself."

Song Shu lowered his eyes, "I'm sorry, but I don't want to wait any longer."

"Forget it. I can never win an argument with you."

"Jerry just called me."

"Jerry?" Yu Qisheng was stunned, then his face became serious, "Has anyone already started to move?"

"Not sure yet, but it should be. Jerry said that there are at least two groups of people in Q City investigating the authenticity of my resume. One of them," Song Shu paused, somewhat helplessly, "should be Qiaoqiao. She is a person who can't hold back."

Yu Qisheng sneered, "The other group is the people involved in that incident. They are just too guilty and can't control their temper."

"Yeah. But if it were me, I would be scared too... A person who looks very similar to the child they tried so hard to kill in that case has returned. Doesn't he look like a ghost crawling out of a grave? How could they not be afraid of the person they wanted to kill with their own hands..."

Song Shu looked at his own shadow in the window, then chuckled with cold eyes.

Yu Qisheng turned his head with a serious expression, almost warning: "But you have to be more careful."

"I will."

Song Shu whispered.

Monday, near noon.

vio capital, 12th floor, legal and compliance department.

Song Shu worked overtime on the weekend and completed the newcomer task assigned by the minister ahead of time: feasibility assessment and due diligence of the legal direction of a small investment project. She looked up in a certain direction of the cubicle, and when she was sure that no one was there, Song Shu picked up the water cup and walked to the tea room on the 12th floor.

A few steps away, she heard a low discussion in the tea room: "...Isn't it? I'm dying of curiosity. Until now, no one knows where she came from."

Song Shu walked into the tea room.

A female colleague and a male colleague were standing in front of the water dispenser, discussing something.

As soon as he saw Song Shu walk in, the male colleague quickly bumped into the female colleague who was still talking. The other party was stunned for a moment, turned around and smiled a little awkwardly.

"Are you here to fetch water too, Qin Qing?"

"Yeah." Song Shu seemed to have heard nothing and walked over to his male colleague.

The other party quickly gave up his position and said, "I'm done, you come this way."

"Thank you." Song Shu nodded. Then she asked, "Lisa, I have encountered some difficulties in the project I am working on. I would like to ask you for advice."

The female colleague named Lisa was stunned. "What's the matter?"

"Sister Qin said that the company received a lot of investment projects of my type two years ago, and the relevant legal documents can be used for reference, but I'm not sure where to check it."

Lisa breathed a sigh of relief. "You can check it in the archives room. They have always had a good relationship with our legal department. You can go get a certificate and then you can go in and check it."

"Is there a certificate?"

"Yes, the archives room is under the jurisdiction of the Human Resources Department. You can go to the Human Resources Department to find Director Luan..." Lisa's voice suddenly paused. She turned her head as if she thought of something, and sure enough, she saw the woman next to her with an embarrassed expression on her face.

Just as Lisa was thinking about how to ask the question, she heard the woman take the initiative to speak: "But Director Luan from the Human Resources Department seems to have some opinions about me. I don't dare to go alone."

"Is that so?"

"Can you come with me?"

"Me?" Lisa was stunned.

"Yes, but you don't have to accompany me in to find her. You can just wait for me outside."

"..." Lisa was silent for a few seconds, but still couldn't suppress her curiosity. She nodded quickly, "Okay."

Song Shu smiled sincerely, "Then let's wait until the afternoon before we officially start work, okay?"

"No problem, come find me then."

"Thanks."

"You're welcome."

"… "

Not long after Lisa left, Song Shu poured out the water she had just received. As soon as she unscrewed the lid of the cup, she saw the door of the lounge next to her open and Yao Yiqin walked out.

"Sister Qin." After being stunned for a moment, Song Shu smiled faintly and prepared to leave.

"Hey, wait." Yao Yiqin stopped her and said hesitantly, "Qin Qing, you just came here and you may not be very clear about the situation in the department. Lisa is... a bit of a chatterbox. If you go to the HR department with her, it might not be appropriate if something happens. How about I go with you?"

"No, Sister Qin, thank you for your kindness. But I have an appointment with Lisa, and I think she is easy to talk to, so I'll go with her."

After Song Shu finished speaking, he smiled, nodded at Yao Yiqun, then turned and left.

After leaving the tea room, Song Shu's smile faded. She shook the empty cup lightly, with no emotion in her eyes, and only whispered to herself.

"Of course, only the most gossipy one can 'help' with this matter."
