"Eat a little more"

In the park to the right of the company, the two sat side by side on a bench. Chu Ci was holding the yam porridge brought by Yuri in his hand, he had no appetite but ate it slowly, and Yuri kept encouraging him to eat more.

Looking at Chu Ci's tired face, he knew that things were probably not going well, although he barely squeezed out a smile when he saw him, but anyone could see that he was forcing a smile.

"Okay, I'll eat more"

Chu Ci pulled the corners of his mouth and opened his mouth to swallow a large mouthful of porridge, showing his positive attitude very face-saving.

The porridge was placed lukewarm by Yuri before it was put into the thermos bucket, but he could still feel the pain in his throat every time he swallowed it, it should be inflamed, Chu Ci thought to himself.

"Take the medicine and then take it"

Yuri took the medicine out of his pocket and placed it in front of Chu Ci's eyes, looking like a treasure. He showed an optimistic attitude and wanted to drive the depressed Chu Ci.

"What's wrong with your hand"

Chu Ci glanced at it casually and immediately grabbed Yuri's hand holding the medicine bag, and looked at the band-aid on it, and probably guessed how it was caused.

"It's okay"

Yuri withdrew her hand with a swish, and the smile on her face bloomed even brighter. kept patting Chu Ci to signal him to continue eating, Chu Ci frowned unwillingly and stared at her fingers hidden at her side.

"Take it out"

Chu Ci sighed, his voice calm but powerful. In this way, Yuri slowly stretched out her fingers, secretly blaming herself for being unsettled and causing injuries and chaos.

The slender finger was wrapped with a band-aid, and the blood stains penetrated by the band-aid indicated that the owner of the finger had been injured due to lack of concentration and the wound was not shallow.

Chu Ci frowned, gently pulled the hand and put it to his mouth, kissing it lightly, as if it was the whole hand that was injured, and his eyes were full of distress.

"I, I'm really fine, I'm just distracted"

Yuri's words became lighter and lighter the more he spoke, and in the end, he was basically swallowed into his stomach, and he couldn't hear what he said clearly by looking at his open and closed mouth.

It's really useless, it's really useless, Yuri secretly scolded herself in her heart, and a meal was made into a distressing meeting by herself. Chu Ci's emotions didn't look as good as when they first met.

"Don't get hurt again, I'm not sure I'll have the strength to take it again"

Chu Ci's voice was not loud, as if the voice was not coming out of his mouth,

Yuri just watched him grab his hand against his own forehead, his eyes closed and he didn't know what he was thinking, his movements were a bit like prayer, and the emotion of a little pleading in his voice was particularly prominent.

Yuri looked at Chu Ci like this for some reason, his eyes were a little moist, and he raised his head and poured the inexplicable tears back into his heart according to what the book said, and deliberately raised a clear voice and promised, "Okay"

The meal and the depressive meal finally ended, and Chu Ci answered the phone and left in a hurry, but Yuri reminded him to remember to bring cold medicine.

Yuri stood in place and looked at Chu Ci's back, just two days later, it looked a little thin, and the obviously wide shirt was swayed by the wind. Sighing unconsciously, Yuri sat back on the bench to pack her lunch box.

"Hiss~"

Absentmindedly, he clamped the wound to the zipper of the thermos bucket again, and gasped in pain.

Subconsciously rubbed the wound with his fingers, and suddenly remembered what Chu Ci said, "I don't have the strength to accept the pain again"

No strength, again, again?

Yuri's eyes suddenly widened and looked at the bleeding fingers, his brother committed suicide by cutting his wrists, cutting his wrists, hands, it turned out to be ......

I'm afraid this is the first time Chu Ci has shown a weak side to himself, if it weren't for this eventful season, I'm afraid he would have hidden it very well, Yuri thought like this, covering his face with his hands and his knees.

After a few minutes, he took off his hands, and his face was calm as if nothing had happened, except that his palms were all wet and his nose was red.

After adjusting his state and carrying the bag of the thermos bucket, he got up and just walked two steps when the mobile phone rang again, looking at Chu Ci's advice to deal with the injured text message, Yuri was even more sure of the shadow in his heart.

In the eyes of passers-by in the distance, the woman on the walking path basically did not change after confirming the text message, but the frequency of her steps increased and she put on sunglasses after a few steps, and almost escaped all the way to the car.

"How's it going?"

Chu Ci hurried back after receiving a call from Ms. Li, and the police who handled the scene finally came over to explain the situation.

Chu Ci pushed open the door of the office and asked eagerly, the police who came to report on the work didn't know who he was, but he felt that this aura was three points stronger than that of Ms. Li who was sitting upright.

"We did find traces of vandalism on the roof, and called the manufacturer of the waterproofing equipment to conduct an on-site assessment, and they also gave evidence of vandalism."

Chu Ci had long thought about the manufacturer's cooperation in order to take off his responsibility, and he looked at the rapid progress and was indeed right.

"What about the suspects?

"Not for the time being, I'm sure I haven't done it yet"

"That security guard too?" Chu Ci frowned and looked at the police, and his stern attitude gave the police a sense of urgency to deal with a violent boss.

"Sorry, not yet"

"Can't you guys look around, like there's a lot of money in your account?"

This time, it was Ms. Li's turn to speak, and the police officers who came to report were a little cramped in the face of the two people's questioning.

"At the moment, now, it has not been this far"

Raised his hand and took off his hat, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and put it back on, tugging on his hat to hide the tension in his heart.

"What about the person in charge of the site? What did he say?"

"He has not yet confessed, and you have charged him with negligence, which can only be convicted according to law after you produce a report of damage, during which time he has the right to bail"

"Bail?"

"Yes, bail"

Chu Ci looked at the questions and answers of the two and pinched the bridge of his nose, if the person in charge of the scene went out to negotiate with Minister Wen and the others, it would be even worse. Apparently, Ms. Li also realized this, and pointed her finger at her eyebrows.

"If we prove that the amount of loss is huge or higher than a certain value, will he not have a chance of bail" Because he has not yet taken medicine, Chu Ci's voice is a little hoarse.

"Yes, according to the law, it is possible, there is a risk of absconding for a huge amount, and we have the right not to accept the bail application"

"Then we'll show a certificate of his destruction of cultural relics, it's okay to have such a value."

"Cultural relics?" the policeman asked Ms. Li rhetorically, obviously surprised.

South Korea has a small area, and there are very few cultural relics found, and most of them have been circulated abroad, and I have never heard of any cultural relics appearing in the public. Chu Ci's sudden accusation made the two confused.

"Chung-Ang University's old warehouse, which is also our renovated library, has been an architectural heritage in Korea for a long time, which is why we chose to renovate rather than destroy and rebuild."

"That's it~" The policeman nodded a little confused

Looking at the police with a hint of uncertainty, Chu Ci continued, "We will also send a list of machine damage later, the miscellaneous things will definitely add up to more than the value you specified, I don't believe he can come out"

This time the policeman nodded very hard, it was the first time he saw someone who dared to hint openly in front of the police that he wanted to kill his opponent, so he also respected him for this ruthlessness.

The policeman, who briefly explained the situation, finally escaped from Ms. Li's office before her entire clothes were soaked, and Chu Ci looked at the closed door and searched out the bag of medicine that had become crumpled from his pocket.

"Taking medicine on an empty stomach?"

"Drank porridge"

"This girlfriend is caring enough, you didn't hurt her in vain"

Chu Ci put down the water glass and smiled, revealing a sincere smile for the first time today, a smile about Yuri.

As soon as the historical certificate of the warehouse and the damage list were submitted, Philip sent back the test report, which pointed out the detection of a substance, but it could also prove the conspiracy of this matter.

Chu Ci looked at the elements on the test report, and in addition to the conventional substances, he also found the natural enemy of the building, sulfuric acid substances.

"Sulfuric acid, sulfuric acid!"

Ms. Li exclaimed in the whole office after seeing the report, although she is not an expert, but after watching the industry report for so many years, she also knows how terrible the sulfuric acid substance is.

"In this gang of people are really going crazy, unscrupulous means"

Ms. Li's loud reprimand made her face red, but her lips turned white, and she looked angry.

"Forward the report to the police for verification"

Ms. Li threw the report on the desk, just picked up the phone, just pressed a few buttons and hesitantly put it down, and there was no evidence.

She forgot about this matter so much, looked up at Chu Ci, who was sitting on the sofa and didn't stop her, sat back in her seat, unwillingly swept down the documents on the table and scolded two damn sentences as a vent of anger.

"When will Philip come back?"

"There are still a few materials to be tested, and it is expected to come back the day after tomorrow"

"We're just sitting still? There must be something flawed."

"This destructive substance has just come out, and I just received an email from Philip to confirm which brand of which one, this new corrosive solvent must not have been promoted on a large scale, first investigate the buyers, this should be easy to investigate"

"Okay, I'll send someone to check now"

"This thing is made in France, and it has not yet entered South Korea, so it is best to find information at the customs, but I don't know ......"

"It's very convenient, so much money in a year took mine in vain"

Ms. Li angrily dialed the phone and arranged for her cronies to follow the clues and start the investigation, and Chu Ci continued to think about the possibility of finding a comparison sample.
