Chapter 374: One Step Late (Asking for Subscription)

Seeing that his head had been playing like this for a while, Jin Zhuo couldn't help but say, "Head, what are you playing!" ”

Hearing Jin Zhuo's question, Huo Zhongting said, "Come here, is this drawer on the far left shorter than the other drawers, you go in this direction." ”

Looking in the direction pointed by Huo Zhongting, Jin Zhuo found that it seemed to be really short.

"It seems to be true!"

Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Huo Zhongting said calmly on the side, "It's not like, but it's just." ”

As he spoke, he pulled out the drawer on the far left, thinking that he would definitely see something useful this time, but strangely, there was nothing in it.

"Head, aren't we thinking too much! It's the master who made this drawer short! ”

Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Huo Zhongting shook his head, "No, if the master is short, he will definitely find out, and with Li Jiaren's status, do you think the master dares to fool him with a defective product?" ”

"That's true, but there's no mezzanine or anything in there! Otherwise, let's find the carpenter who made this desk, and then we will know where this desk is? ”

Jin Zhuo's words made Huo Zhongting nod, "What you said makes sense, let people bring this desk back later, and when it is dawn, then find out the carpenter who made this desk." ”

Hearing his own head say this, Jin Zhuo nodded.

After working for so long a day, by the time Huo Zhongting's office arrived, it was already three o'clock in the morning, which meant that he could only sleep for another three or four hours, and then he would have to get up again and continue to work.

Although he was very tired, Huo Zhongting went to the conference room on the third floor to take a look before going to bed.

"There is no trouble inside!"

Hearing Huo Zhongting ask, the guard hurriedly said, "No, they are all quite honest, they should play chess, they should play poker, and no one will do anything." ”

The guard's words made Huo Zhongting secretly breathe a sigh of relief, "That's good, remember that if you have anything, you can report it at any time." ”

Hearing Huo Zhongting say this, the guard nodded.

Jin Zhuo was very fast, and it didn't take him an hour to find the carpenter who made the desk in the first place.

"This is the desk you made back then?"

Although I don't know why the other party asked, the carpenter still said honestly, "I did it." ”

"Then can you explain to me why this leftmost drawer is shorter than the others!"

Hearing Jin Zhuo ask, the carpenter was a little surprised and said, "Impossible! All of what I do is average! How dare I cut corners to make things for Colonel Li! ”

"Are you sure you made anything that was average?"

Although he didn't know why the chief asked this, the carpenter still said honestly, "Yes, it's definitely average." ”

After sending the other party away, Jin Zhuo immediately went to report to Huo Zhongting.

"Generally long? So why is it that what we see now is not ordinarily long, is it because the drawer has been dropped, or is it something else? ”

Hearing what his head said, Jin Zhuo suddenly remembered something, "Head, there seems to be one in Li Bufan's room, which is similar to the desk in Li Jiaren's house and study, is it possible that someone deliberately changed Li Bufan's drawer to Li Jiaren's study." ”

Jin Zhuo's words made Huo Zhongting also suddenly realize, "Yes, it is also possible, go to Li Jiaren's house again." ”

After going to Li Jiaren's house, they took the lead in going to Li Bufan's room, and sure enough, they found a desk in his room that was similar to Li Jiaren's room.

It's just interesting that no drawers are missing from this desk.

Faced with this situation, everyone fell into deep thought, "What the hell is going on!" ”

Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Huo Zhongting shook his head, "Let's go back first!" ”

After returning to the office, Huo Zhongting stared at the drawer on the left that had been pulled out for a long time, and he didn't find anything different about this drawer, could it really be that he was thinking too much.

But why is a good drawer short?

Did the carpenter misremember, or did the drawer make it short for some other reason?

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, so Huo Zhongting didn't embarrass himself, but went to the interrogation room to ask one of Li Jiaren's guards, "The desk in Li Jiaren's study has a drawer that is shorter than the others, do you know what's going on?" ”

Hearing Huo Zhongting ask, the guard shook his head, "I don't know, but how can it be short!" Normally, it's all the same! ”

Seeing that he didn't know, Huo Zhongting planned to leave, but before he could walk out, he was stopped by the guard again, "When you said this, I remembered a thing, when Colonel Li was making this table, he asked the carpenter to leave more wood after making the table." ”

"And then, what did the wood do?"

Hearing the other party's question, the guard shook his head, "Then it's not clear." ”

After coming out of the interrogation room, Huo Zhongting pondered for a moment before saying, "Assuming that there were other things in the extra gap in the drawer on the left, why are they missing now?" ”

Hearing what his head said, Jin Zhuo pondered for a moment before saying, "Could it be that someone took it away, but Li Jiaren dared to put something there, which means that it must not be discovered, so why did the other party find out, could it be his son Li Bufan?" ”

Jin Zhuo's words made Huo Zhongting smile, "If there is anything behind that drawer, let's ask Li Jiaren if we know, after all, if that piece is really a list, then that list has been stolen, Li Jiaren must be more anxious than us." ”

Hearing what Huo Zhongting said, Jin Zhuo nodded, "That's right, Li Jiaren must be more anxious than us." ”

When Huo Zhongting went to the interrogation room where Li Jiaren was being held, he had already finished breakfast.

Seeing Huo Zhongting coming, he asked with a smile, "Eldest nephew, have you had breakfast?" ”

Hearing what the other party said, Huo Zhongting said with a smile, "Not yet." ”

"Why didn't you have breakfast! You young people just rely on your youth to not take your body seriously, and when you are old, you will regret it. ”

Li Jiaren's words made Huo Zhongting smile, "Yes, I will definitely remember to have breakfast in the future, Uncle Li, I came to you because I want to confirm with you, is there anything hidden in the leftmost drawer of the desk in your study?" ”

As soon as Huo Zhongting said this, Li Jiaren's face changed, "You have found everything, and you still ask me what to do?" ”

Seeing that his face changed, Huo Zhongting also knew the answer, "Is it a list hidden in that block?" Uncle Li, I'll be honest with you, I didn't get that list, and when I went, he was gone. ”
