Chapter 11 The Evil Behind the Accident
Hearing my answer, Hu Gu's smile deepened, I guess he should have vaguely heard the phone call that Li Jing answered in the corridor just now, but he shouldn't have known about our later conversation, so I decided to continue to lie to him. I secretly sent a message to Li Jing on my mobile phone: I made sure that the last explosion was not at the headquarters.
"You want to bomb the headquarters, but unfortunately, we have already evacuated the personnel, and it seems that your plan has been lost." I pretended to be a little sorry to tell the man opposite.
Hu Gu's smile deepened and deepened, and his strange expression seemed to say that they had succeeded.
I ignored his weird attitude. Instead, he continued to ask, "Is there anything ridiculous?" Anyway, your plan is in vain, let's talk about it, why did you organize the explosion, is it because of what happened a year ago? β
"Why should I sue you?" The man asked rhetorically with an expression of ambition.
"In order to reduce your sentence, I want you to kill two people, shouldn't they all honestly explain clearly, and strive for a good attitude and benign treatment?" I secretly dialed Li Jing while reading the materials.
Unexpectedly, this sentence stimulated Hu Gu: "I said that I didn't kill anyone." Hu Gu's tone sounded very scary, but suddenly I didn't seem so scared, and I knew that he was still talking about something very important.
"Who killed that?"
"I don't know." The man turned his head to the right and stopped looking at me.
"How could you not know where you were between eight and ten o'clock last night?" I didn't look at him, I just looked at the information in my hand and asked him, the information in my hand now has all the information about Du Feng written on it. I observed Hu Gu's expression through the information, and saw that his expression was to believe the news I gave him.
"I'm in my dorm room, and the surveillance on the floor can give me proof." There was a hint of cunning in Hugu's gaze, and the fingers of his two hands on the table rubbed interlaced, trying to convince me that what he said was true.
I put down the information in my hand: "I'll go back and check the monitoring." By the way, were you not feeling well yesterday? β
Hu Gu looked at me suspiciously, as if he didn't know what I was talking about, but he soon came to his senses and showed the same vigilant expression as he had at the beginning.
I looked down on myself and said, "Yesterday the production team you were in charge of worked overtime until late at night, and you said before that the overtime here is paid three times the salary according to national regulations, so everyone here is happy to work overtime." I just looked at the personnel information here, and there are almost no locals except for the administration, so they all live in dormitories on the top floor of the office building, and overtime is a common thing for them. However, if there were no inspectors present, work would not have started to ensure safety. But it's weird. As I spoke, I dropped a sign-in sheet on the table, "Look, your team started work yesterday." And it's signed with your name on it. I'll look at the time. Hey, why 8 to 11 p.m. Didn't you say you were resting during that time? How do you manage to work while resting? β
Hu Gu's face was red and white for a while, and he didn't speak, and finally simply lowered his head again, refusing my question.
"So I went on and on, and then said that you don't know anything, and I see what else you can tell me. You just see that other people's promotions and fortunes are not pleasing to the eye, so you want to kill them and then you yourself will take the position. As a result, let Zhang Ba see your trick, and simply kill all two of them without doing anything, just as there is no evidence, you can also think about being promoted with peace of mind. But you don't look at your own strength either. Du Feng is a high-achieving student who graduated from the Department of Physics, and he was originally a specially hired technician on the production line in L City. What about you, you didn't graduate from junior high school, and you didn't work hard to Zhang Baken, so why did you get a promotion and a salary increase. It's really sad, the heart is higher than the sky, but you don't have the ability, and in the end you can only kill people, as a result, you see, didn't your company still push you out? Let you carry the black pot, you really work hard for others. It's really pitiful for those two people, who finally escaped and died under your knife. By the way, the knife you gave us this morning is the same tool you used to kill last night. However, being able to collude with the wolf bèi of Mulan Company and do things that kill people and sell goods is worthy of being a good dog. I really feel sorry for you when you used to be in L City. I sighed falsely.
As I expected, after listening to my speculation, Hu Gu raised his head and yelled at me angrily like we did in the first conversation: "I didn't! β
"No?" I raised my eyebrows, "Did you not kill anyone, or did you not work for the company?" β
"I didn't kill anyone." Maybe he was too excited, Hu Gu's voice had become hoarse when he spoke, and his eyes were already red because of anger, "I didn't have any trouble with anyone, I didn't." β
"Sue me what happened in the city of L back then?" I stood up and walked around to him, "If you didn't have a relationship with the wolf of the Mulan Company, then tell me what happened in the city back then." I want to help you. β
"Help me?" Hu Gu glanced at me, and there was a mockery in his red eyes, "You know what I've been through, so you think you can help me?" β
"My boyfriend died in the explosion. I know the pain of losing a loved one. I was there when he left. I saw the explosion with my own eyes, and to this day I can't get out of the shadow of that event. Every time I see a scene similar to that time, I feel suffocated at that time. I understand your feelings. I moved a chair and sat next to him, "Can you talk to me about a year ago, I know you're from L, and all three of you are." β
The man who bought it looked elsewhere, and had been refusing to look at me, and I knew that he was hesitating, hesitating to tell me the truth, they had been suppressed for too long, and some feelings were in a hurry to vent. I looked at him: "I want to know why you are retaliating, after all, we have already prepared for the headquarters, and you will not succeed." β
"You're wrong. What is right will always prevail. The corners of the man's mouth hooked again, "Justice." The man repeated.
"So Mulan still did the wrong thing, such as the explosion of the water pipe." I turned in the direction of his gaze.
"It's not just a water pipe explosion." The man was finally willing to say what had happened, but his eyes fell on my wrist. He was looking at the time of my watch, and I glanced at the time, it was half past six in the afternoon. The self-confidence in the man's eyes grew stronger, and I knew that the time for their revenge was getting closer.
The man raised his head, looked at me for the first time with a very calm expression, and said, "Soon you will know the truth of the matter, and everyone will go to the final place to remember their lost friends and relatives." β
"The final place? We've cleaned it up. I replied to him.
Hu Gu shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't, you never know where the final place is. β
"Why are you going there?"
"Punish those who are guilty."
"Why the punishment?" I asked him.
He glanced at me and sneered: "Miss, have you ever heard of an old Chinese saying?" It's called a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye, don't you know, miss? What I have done is to give them back the pain they have inflicted on us. β
"That dam also brought you pain?" I looked at Hu Gu and asked.
Hu Gu lowered his head and did not speak.
"He's just like you, a pawn to be manipulated."
"Some sacrifices are necessary, and I think he'll understand." The man said sullenly with his head down.
"Fart." I glared at him, "What's the difference between your thinking and this bastard company?" If that's how you look at other people's lives, what are the people who died in previous accidents? Is it also a necessary sacrifice? β
"Shut up, you don't know what happened back then." The man roared, "Half of the factory is gone." There are brothers in the same village who played with me until the big one, Du Feng's girlfriend, and a lot of relatives, do you know? β
"All I know is that at that time, there was a water pipe burst at the Mulan factory in L City." More than 100 people, I secretly marveled in my heart, it was not just a burst water pipe.
Hu Gu sneered, the laughter became louder and louder, and with a faint whimper, he wiped the tears on his face: "Water pipe accident? Hehe, the water pipe accident, just a water pipe burst, how can more than a hundred people die. β
In the end, the tears could not be wiped away, and the man simply let himself cry, showing that the floodgates of memory were opened, and the man began to tell me about his previous events: "I have no ability, and I don't like to study, I went out early with friends who grew up in the same village to mingle in society, I am so lazy to eat, if I wasn't with them, I might have starved to death on the streets, or been arrested and imprisoned for fighting." Although my brothers were not educated, they were very ambitious, and they always told me that they would return to their hometown after they became famous. When we were in L City, we found a job advertisement, it was Mulan Company recruiting workers. I didn't want to work hard because I always liked to fight, so my brothers asked me to try to apply for a security guard. I didn't have much pursuit, the security guard was low-paid, but it wasn't hard, so I really listened to their advice. In the end, like them, they entered the factory set up by Mulan Company in L City. Mulan's factory is particularly large, with more than 300 workers in it, and only the sound of a 'boom' machine can be heard during the working hours in the factory. Mulan Company requires 16 hours of work a day, but the salary is very high, although it is very tiring, but the brothers persist in order to earn money. My brothers thought that if they worked hard, they would earn a lot of money and achieve their honor. However, we later learned that we were naΓ―ve. β
The man stopped and looked at me, his lips were a little dry, and I poured him a glass of water, hoping that he would continue after he had finished drinking. After the man finished drinking the water, he asked me for another cigarette to smoke, and it was not until the cigarette butt burned to the butt of the cigarette that the man had the intention to speak.
"But we are too naΓ―ve, do you know why Mulan Company is reluctant to recruit locals?" The man asked me after his last puff of cigarette.
I shook my head: "Why?" β
"Because he can't control them, we outsiders are helpless in the local area, even if we know something terrible, we can't tell anyone about it, and as long as the factory gate is closed, there is no difference between it and the prison."
Something terrible? I was amazed, but I continued to listen to the man's story without leaking.
The man put out the smoke on the table, like pressing an ant to death: "Do you know what Mulan does?" β
"Machining, huh?" I've read the information of Mulan Company, and it doesn't say that it cooperates with many large companies, mainly making parts.
The man shook his head: "You are so naΓ―ve, so you can't stop our righteous progress with members." β
The man was repeatedly emphasizing justice, and I knew that he was hinting at the Mulan Company's improper dark transactions, so I was not going to pretend to be stupid, but asked him: "You mean, Mulan Company, Deposit ZΓ i illegal transactions." β
The man didn't speak, but for the first time he looked me seriously into the eye, and I think he agreed with my speculation. I continued to ask, "What is the deal?" β
The man lowered his voice; "Addictive deals."
As soon as he finished speaking, all of us, including the police present, were stunned, and I forced the surprise in my heart to confirm with him again: "Are you telling the truth?" β
The man smiled bitterly: "My brother has died because of this incident, do you think I will tell a lie about this matter?" β
I looked at the policeman standing to his left, and he nodded at me and walked out of the room. As the conversation continued, I glanced at my watch, and the minute hand was five steps away from reaching the 12 position, and the hour hand would reach the 9 position after the minute hand had traveled five steps. The man was uncharacteristically excited. His eyes were wide open, as if he were about to get something he had been waiting for. I know it's getting closer and closer to the final explosion.
"How did you know about this?" I kept telling myself to calm down.
"My brother is helping them make those horrible things. He told them to hide it in a good machine and put it on a truck and transport it out of the factory. β
"And then your brother divulged the secret?" I looked at him and asked.
His expression was a little awkward, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "They don't have it, but there are fewer things." β
"Someone smuggled those things?" I was shocked, and the words blurted out.
"Money can eat away at people's conscience." Hu Gu said indifferently.
"Your brother embezzled the goods?" I asked him uncertainly.
"It's not them!" Hu Gu shouted, "It's not them! They were wronged! They don't give a damn! (To be continued.) )
