Chapter 63: Resolutely
When Su Wei woke up, it was already noon, and the room was filled with bright white light, which made her involuntarily block it with her hand, and waited until her eyes were slightly used to it, then she propped up half of her body and began to look at the surrounding environment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, it was her own home, she breathed a sigh of relief after seeing those familiar furnishings, but the clothes on her body were obviously changed, she shook her head in confusion, the dizziness caused by alcohol had turned into bursts of stinging pain after a night's sleep, so that she had to try to recall what happened yesterday.
At the company's dinner, many employees saw the boss who paid their wages for the first time, and she played a presiding role, in order to eliminate those negative influences, the atmosphere was artificially set up, which is of course the most traditional communication tool of the Chinese nation...... wine, so when it came to the back, when most of the people finished the dinner party and went to K song, she could only let people help her get into the car, and that person was undoubtedly the boss.
Su Wei looked at the pajamas on her body and was stunned for a while, how did she get into this room, what happened later, she couldn't remember anything, the only thing that was certain was that there was no physical discomfort. Lifting the quilt and getting out of bed, there was a pair of large plush slippers beside her, and the cartoon patterns painted on them made her smile softly.
Although the heating was on in the house, the imperial capital in December was already a little chilly, and the thin pajamas were still a little insufficient, so she had to find a thicker lounge clothes to put on her body, perhaps because she had drunk too much wine, she was a little thirsty and just opened the door, she smelled a strong aroma of food, and there was a sound of stir-frying in the kitchen.
In the kitchen full of oil smoke, Su Hongmei was stir-frying vegetables unconsciously, her expression was as serious as if she was doing data analysis in the laboratory, but she changed the white coat on her body to an apron. From Su Wei's point of view, only the back of her head and the occasionally exposed side can be seen, the years have left too many traces on her body, she is only in her forties, her hair has turned a lot gray, her skin has become rough, there are more wrinkles, and her back is no longer straight, but showing an obvious rickety angle, her heart was touched by sudden emotions, and a strong sourness rushed straight to her eyes.
"Mom!" Hearing the voice, Su Hongmei lowered her head, a pair of delicate and white hands were wrapped around her waist, she kept putting the fried vegetables on the plate with her hands and feet, turned off the heat and put down the spatula, wiped her hands on the apron and wiped them, and then patted the back of her daughter's hand.
"Got you arguing? If you're hungry, go wash your face, and you'll be ready to eat soon. ”
Su Wei hugged her mother tightly without saying a word, tears flowed down her face, she didn't need to look at it, she also knew that those dishes were all her favorite flavors, and they were not made for her younger brother. In other words, Su Hongmei came back for her and has been with her since last night.
"That leader of yours is called Yuzi, he called me yesterday and said that you were drunk, and when I came back here, you were just sent upstairs by him. People are not very awake anymore, I didn't respond to you for a long time, I vomited as soon as I entered the door, I had no choice but to change your clothes, and then I finally helped you to the bed, tossed until midnight before falling asleep, my mother has never seen you drink like that, almost frightened. ”
Su Hongmei turned around and took her into her arms, stroked her hair and continued: "Xiaowei, Mom knows that you are not happy in your heart, but you can't hurt yourself like this, I have also thought about it in the past few days, forget about that matter, as long as your sister and brother are good, nothing else matters." ”
Hearing this, Su Wei suddenly let go of her hand and looked at her with wide eyes, Su Hongmei sighed, reached out to wipe away her tears, her face was as calm as ever, and she didn't see anything unusual at all, as if it was a trivial matter.
The matter was suddenly resolved, but there was no trace of happiness in Su Wei's heart, her mother's compromise was obviously not voluntary, and she always had a question in her heart, why did the two suddenly reach the point of talking about marriage?
At this meal, the mother and daughter ate very quietly, Su Hongmei kept putting vegetables for her, and asked some things about work, Su Wei was a little absent-minded, she didn't know what to do at the bottom?
"How long can I stay when I come back this time?" Seeing that her daughter didn't eat much, and even Su Hongmei's appetite was much worse, she didn't hear an answer for a while, she raised her head in surprise, only to see her daughter staring at her blankly, her eyes full of confusion.
This simple question reminded Su Wei at once, whether it was her or her younger brother, it was impossible to accompany her mother for a lifetime, most of the time, she was not by her mother's side at all, but she never considered the other party's feelings, thinking of those words before, Su Wei couldn't help it all of a sudden.
He ...... Does Uncle Feng often go to the hospital? ”
"Well, when I rushed back yesterday, he was the one who helped take care of Xiaochen." Su Hongmei nodded: "In the past few months, he has come to the hospital almost every day, and we have talked a lot, but I don't know how he thought about bringing it up." ”
On her mother's face, Su Wei couldn't see the expressions that a woman who was in love should have, so what was the reason why she decided to agree?
"Xiaowei, although it has been a long time since that incident, there are still some problems in me that I haven't figured out, so I will make your life with your brother the way it is now, and your Uncle Feng, maybe only he ......" Su Hongmei didn't know how to continue, because the reasons were too complicated, and even if she said it, her daughter might not understand.
"And do you love him?" Su Wei simply thought that such a combination was a bit incredible.
"We are different from you, in your mother's era, you don't need to live by the love you say at all."
Su Hongmei shook her head, if she wants to talk about 'love' in her life, it may only be regarded as scientific research when she was young, and her marriage with Su Wei's biological father is actually a bit like an arrangement from her superiors, she just thinks that the man is not annoying, as for liking, she really can't talk about it. At that time, Su Hongmei was full of enthusiasm for science, which was almost equivalent to her life, so she chose to commit suicide when she knew that she would not be able to engage in the job she loved in the future.
"Don't worry, since I promised you, I won't think about it again." She patted her daughter's hand and persuaded her.
"I'm sorry, Mom, I didn't mean that." Su Wei shook his head again and again: "I saw you together at the gate of the hospital that day, and suddenly thought of Aunt Shen, he obviously knew why, and he could still be with you, don't you think it's strange?" ”
Su Hongmei was stunned, she didn't have an answer to this question, but she didn't know how to tell her daughter, so Su Wei suddenly saw that a red cloud appeared on her mother's face, and she thought it was her own illusion, because she had grown so big, she had never seen her have such an expression.
"Mom, in fact, I just hope that you don't decide your life casually because of some other factors." Her heart softened suddenly.
"What for life?" Su Hongmei asked subconsciously.
The daughter blinked and didn't answer, which made her feel a little inexplicable, but it was obvious that Su Wei's mood was not as low as before, and even a familiar smile appeared, Su Hongmei's heart was relieved, she was really a little scared, if her daughter continued to ask, how would she answer.
"I'll go to the hospital with you in a moment."
When washing the dishes, Su Wei's words almost made her hand slip and hit the plate, and when she looked back and saw a trace of cunning flashing in her daughter's eyes, Su Hongmei's heart suddenly beat hard, just like the feeling she had when she was going to meet her parents.
The Imperial Capital XX Research Institute is a special institution established by the Chinese Academy of Sciences under the instructions of the Military Commission, which is different from the Materials Research Institute in the ordinary sense, and in terms of level, it is higher than the unit where Su Hongmei worked at the beginning.
With the letter of introduction issued by the General Office of the Military Commission, Zhong Ming drove here early in the morning, and the uncle guarding the door compared her documents, looked at the photo again and again, and then let go in disbelief.
On the surface, it is no different from other scientific research units, except for a few buildings, there are standard factories in the middle, these buildings built in the sixth and seventh years have very distinctive characteristics of the times, the floor is not high, the structure is square, the style is solemn and the color is monotonous, but in Zhong Ming's view, it has an indescribable sense of beauty, just like that fiery era.
However, when he entered the deepest part and a roadblock with surveillance appeared, Zhong Ming immediately parked the car aside, tidied up his appearance in the rearview mirror, and then pushed the car door and walked out.
She waited in front of the barricade for a while before a man came out of it, took her letter to the sentry box and made a few calls, and glanced at her from time to time, Zhong Ming stood there with a calm face, casually looking at the building behind, it didn't look inconspicuous at all, more like a warehouse where important and special things were stored.
"Major Zhong, I'm sorry, I have to do this procedurally, and I've kept you waiting." After verifying, the man held out his hand to her with a smile on his face.
"It's okay, just take a look at the scenery."
Zhong Ming smiled and touched him, the skin of the man's palm was well maintained, he should not be a scientific researcher, that is, a manager.
"I'm sorry, please hand over your belongings here, and they'll be returned as they are when you leave."
Not only did she carry a gun, but she also did not let go of things such as watches, mobile phones, and keychains, which were even stricter than her unit, and they were about to catch up with prison.
"We're stricter here than in prison." As if sensing her thoughts, the man joked as he led the way.
"That's you, it's impossible for ordinary visitors to enter the building, wait a minute, if you want to visit the laboratory, you have to change your clothes and shoes." The man pointed to his chest: "Even the inside has to be replaced by what we provide, the lesbians are a little troublesome, but there is no way, this is all a rule." ”
Zhong Ming nodded, he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, such inspection measures are to prevent leakage, especially for some foreign friends, so that they don't even have the opportunity to get dusty, it seems impersonal, but in fact, all the rules come from the lessons of reality.
Fortunately, she was not interested in seeing people doing scientific research, and she came here just to learn more about the situation, and according to her request, by the time the man led her to an office, there were already several people waiting inside.
"Let me introduce, this is Director Li, this is Director Wang, this is Deputy Team Leader Zhang of the project team, and this is Director Zuo of the Security Department."
The man pointed out the people in the house to her one by one, plus the man himself, the five people in the house were insiders of the case, and for this reason they had all signed a confidentiality agreement, and they could not reveal a word to the public.
"Time is pressing, I'll get straight to the point, the person involved this time is called Guo Yuejin, I guess you all know each other." After Zhong Ming finished speaking, he looked at their expressions.
"Lao Guo?"
"How is he, his son is not ......"
"Don't say anything, listen to Comrade Zhong finish speaking."
The Director Li raised his hand and waved it to silence their voices, then nodded at Zhong Ming and motioned for her to continue.
"Yesterday I learned that the project team he is responsible for is very critical and determines the success or failure of the entire scientific research task, isn't that so, Director Li?"
"Yes, Researcher Zhang is his deputy, and he can explain the specific situation to you."
Zhong Ming glanced at the person he was talking about, and found that the other party's mood was not very high, as if he knew that his companion had suddenly had an accident and was not mentally prepared.
"We'll talk about that later." Zhong Ming continued: "First of all, I want to emphasize that the country will never stop moving forward because of someone, not before, and will be the same in the future. ”
"However, in view of the target's good performance in the past, if he can wake up in time and have major remorse and meritorious service, then there will not be any comrades in the organization, and this requires the efforts of all of us."
As she spoke, the deputy team leader had been listening carefully, his face had changed significantly, and he seemed to be relieved when he heard the last sentence.
"Did he come to the office today?"
As soon as this question came out, Director Li and several others looked at each other.
"Here, when I met him at the door, I said hello, but I saw that he was preoccupied and a little unreasonable." The left chief of the security department spoke first.
"Well, he stayed in his office for a while, and no one was in the lab yet, and after about half an hour, he left, without talking to anyone." The deputy team leader, surnamed Zhang, then added.
"Do you think he needs to take anything from here if he wants to leak secrets?"
Maybe it was Zhong Ming's too straightforward question, which made the house cold all of a sudden, and it was Researcher Zhang who spoke last.
"The so-called materials, in fact, are some molecular formulas, with his mind, there is no need for any tools at all, those data are all in his memory, when I came over in the morning, I saw his office door open, so I went over to take a look, Lao Guo...... It's the target, sitting motionless, not even turning on the computer, I don't think he's trying to find anything. ”
"Is everything here surveillance?" Zhong Ming's gaze turned to Director Zuo.
"Yes, including in the toilet, but there are no special circumstances, and you are not allowed to look at it."
Zhong Ming nodded unexpectedly, of course she didn't have any special habits, since there were no dead ends in the monitoring, she wanted to see what Guo Yuejin did when he came to the unit today.
The monitoring room in this building is in the bottom security office, and the wide room is surrounded by all kinds of screens, as Director Zuo said, but in the five-story building, hundreds of cameras are installed, basically doing everything. Director Zuo led a few of them to a computer, operated on the keyboard a few times, and called up the camera in Guo Yuejin's office, and set the time to a few minutes after work.
Soon there was movement in the camera, a man in a black tweed coat appeared on the screen, I saw him slowly close the door, standing in place, his eyes swept over every part of the room, because the camera was from the top at a thirty degree angle down, it was difficult to see the man's expression, and after a while, he walked to his desk.
Then there was silence again, the target turned his back to the camera, his head down, not knowing what he was looking at, and finally he sat down in his seat as Researcher Zhang said, and at this time, the camera captured his face. From the picture, Zhong Ming saw an extremely decadent expression, his gray eyes were not bright, and his gaze was finally fixed outside the window, where was a big tree whose leaves had fallen away, only the bare branches remained, Zhong Ming had seen it before going upstairs.
After about thirty minutes, the target suddenly stood up and walked towards the door, and at the moment when he closed the door and went out, his gaze happened to sweep the direction of the camera, and Zhong Ming's heart suddenly became excited.
"Stop, zoom in on this picture, can you figure it out a little more."
At her request, Director Zuo froze the picture, and after zooming in, Guo Yuejin's expression appeared clearly on the screen, and from his eyes, everyone saw something...... Decidedly.
"Not good!"
Zhong Ming subconsciously wanted to take out her mobile phone, but she didn't expect that the pocket was empty, so she remembered that everything was placed at the sentry box at the door.
"I need to make a phone call right away, preferably confidential, Director Li, you should have it in your office."
"Follow me."
Director Li didn't talk nonsense, and took her to his office, and there were several telephones on the desk, one of which was the same red line as hers.
"I'm Zhong Ming, immediately let your people take over the city's surveillance, yes, the monitoring of all public places, activate the face recognition system, I want to find a person immediately, and the information will then be sent to you, temporarily change the target."
