Awkward!

Hearing Wu Yong's extremely cold questioning, all the researchers present felt awkward to the extreme...

They knew that what Wu Yong was saying now was true!

Back when this place was built, they really used the best concrete...

So don't even mention mice; even with an electric drill, it would be very difficult to drill such an extremely deep hole in a short time...

Seeing their awkwardness, Wu Yong coldly said, "Why is everyone silent now? Didn't you just say something about snake and rat being in cahoots? I think you're the rats! Tell me, did one of you secretly take it away from here earlier?"

Wu Yong really suspected that someone in front of him had quietly come here and taken it away after he had left...

As for that hole, it was nothing but a randomly made dazzling technique...

"This... we didn't do it! Researcher Wu, this... this is a huge misunderstanding!"

Their eyelids twitched at such cold questioning.

The next second, they desperately defended themselves...

They knew the accusation was significant, so they mustn't muddle through accepting it. Otherwise, their lives would be over!

"Misunderstanding? You say it's a misunderstanding? Then tell me, how did that snake disappear?"

Facing the questioning again, they helplessly exchanged glances...

"This... this... it must have left through that hole. As for how the hole was made, we... we really don't know!"

"Exactly! We truly don't know at all!"

They knew that he wouldn't listen to their explanations, but they still explained desperately!

Because they knew if they didn't explain now, he would be more suspicious...

Knowing they couldn't possibly confess, Wu Yong said nothing and went to the hole...

He found the hole to be really deep...

"It must be that someone took the Chestnut Snake away and specifically dug this hole! The purpose is naturally to confuse!"

Thinking this gloomily, he squatted down to examine it closely...

Soon, he stood up...

Glancing at everyone again, he expressionlessly and quickly picked up his phone.

He knew he must report everything that happened here to Haiwei so they could thoroughly investigate together...

When Wu Yong took out his phone, everyone present noticed...

In that moment, everyone knew who Wu Yong wanted to call.

Instantly, everyone's eyelids twitched violently...

"This matter really seems to be escalating!"

Looking at each other, they sighed silently!

At this moment, they were also troubled in their hearts...

"Could it be that someone really took it away earlier?"

This thought emerged, and they quickly rejected it.

Because before, everyone had been together, so if anyone had done this, the others would definitely have known!

Wu Yong was unaware of their thoughts; trembling, he found Haiwei's number...

Once found, he quickly dialed Haiwei's number!

He was really nervous now, because he knew if the Chestnut Snake wasn't found, he would be in deep trouble...

"Damn it, if I had known, I should have had security watch over it properly before!"

Regret!

Wu Yong now felt immense regret!

But he also knew it was useless to regret now, as the incident had already occurred...

...

Meanwhile, Haiwei had already returned to his office.

After sitting down, Wu Yong was excitedly grinning foolishly...

After the grin, Haiwei began calculating in his mind...

"Conservatively, fifty million in revenue a year; by then, I can not only get a better house but also the car I've always wanted!"

Haiwei was definitely ambitious!

He had always hoped to live the best life!

But he hadn't had much opportunity before; now he knew the opportunity had come, so he really wanted to seize it entirely and become a top person...

Just as he was excitedly daydreaming, suddenly, the phone on his desk rang.

Glancing down, seeing that it was Wu Yong's number, a smile appeared on Haiwei's lips...

Haiwei was really very satisfied with this Wu Yong...

"I must train him to be the best right-hand man in the future!"

After softly mumbling this to himself, he quickly answered the call...

"Wu Yong, what's up? Are you calling to bring me good news? Is everything perfectly fine with the Chestnut Snake?"

Inquiring softly while leaning back in his chair with pleasure...

Soon, he suddenly sat up expressionlessly!

"What... what... what did you say? Say it again?"

At this moment, Wu Yong, who sat up directly, looked extremely grim...

The reason for this was that in that instant, he heard news he absolutely did not want to hear; the Chestnut Snake was missing...

While he was dumbfounded like this, he heard a rapid voice continuing from the receiver...

"Brother Hai, you... you need to come over here quickly, the Chestnut Snake is missing! It's gone!"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll be right there!"

As he said this, Haiwei quickly hung up the phone!

He had a thousand questions at this moment, but he knew now was not the time to ask...

After hanging up the phone, he roared wildly.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on, what the hell is going on! Can't I catch a break for once?"

After this absolute madness of a roar, he charged out from there like a madman...

Half a minute later, he arrived at the room where Wu Yong was, seeing Wu Yong sitting on the floor in a sorry state...

Striding forward quickly, he asked sharply, "What happened? Tell me, exactly what happened? You said earlier that the Chestnut Snake is missing, just... what on earth happened!"

Wu Yong, hearing Haiwei's interrogation, said, "Brother Hai, the Chestnut Snake is gone, really gone!"

"I know it's gone, but where exactly did it go? Isn't this room very well secured?"

Upon hearing this soul-searching inquiry, Wu Yong quickly turned his head, pointing at those people not far away.

Soon, as those people were dumbfounded, he shouted loudly, "It's them... it must be them, they know the value of the Chestnut Snake, so they stole it while we were away!"

"Is there any evidence for what you are saying?"

"Evidence? It's... it's this hole!"

Responding like this, Wu Yong quickly pointed to the bottomless hole not far away...

Haiwei took a careful look and asked, "What's with this hole?"

"I don't know! But I think this hole might have been secretly dug by someone who stole the Chestnut Snake using some tools. The purpose is simple, to create the illusion that the Chestnut Snake sneaked away, thus clearing their own suspicions."

"That... what you say makes sense, but this hole could also have been dug from the outside by someone else who then rescued the Chestnut Snake!"

"Brother Hai, before, I also considered this possibility, but I think it doesn't hold up because if someone was drilling from the outside, it would make a lot of noise, and the security would hear it!"

"Yes... that's true!"

Haiwei pondered and nodded!

He knew Wu Yong was right. The walls here are very sturdy, so if someone was drilling from outside with tools like a power drill, it would make a lot of noise that would definitely alert the security...

Seeing that Haiwei agreed with him, Wu Yong's eyes lit up...

"Brother Hai, let's investigate these people thoroughly now. I believe if we investigate properly, we can definitely find something!"

As Wu Yong said this, he once again looked at them!

This made all their faces suddenly change...

"Brother Hai, we are innocent!"

"Yeah! Brother Hai!"

"We are really innocent!"

Seeing Haiwei, prompted by Wu Yong, turning to look at them, they quickly defended themselves...

They really felt there was a big misunderstanding in this matter...

And they genuinely felt super aggrieved...

Hearing their defenses, Haiwei squinted his eyes, and soon said impatiently, "Whether you did it or not will be known soon!"

"Brother Hai, you... what are you planning to do?"

Glancing at Wu Yong, Haiwei said coldly, "We have surveillance here, we can just pull it out now!"

"Huh? Right, Brother Hai is smart!"

"Smart my ass! Stop with this nonsense now!"

Hearing Wu Yong's flattery, he impatiently frowned, then quickly shouted, "Alright, everyone follow me to the security room! We'll get to the bottom of this!"

"Yes!"

Just like that, all of them headed straight to the security room!

During the process, Haiwei gave them a few glances. Soon, Haiwei furrowed his brow...

The reason for frowning was that Haiwei found all their expressions were very calm!

"Could it be... could it be that a thief really feels no guilt?"

Saying this, he looked towards Wu Yong, noticing Wu Yong was also scrutinizing them...

"Forget it, once the surveillance is out, everything will be completely clear!"

Murmuring to himself in such a way, he expressionlessly moved his neck a bit...

Soon, they arrived outside the security room...

The four guards who had just been on patrol explanations were startled to see these people arrive!

"Could it be that we've done something else that is heinous?"

Thinking this way, they uneasily moved over quickly...

"Brother Hai, what... what is happening?"

"Yeah! Brother Hai, we were really patrolling seriously just now, please don't fire us!"

"Yes, yes!"

Explaining like this, they were extremely tense all over...

They were really worried that Haiwei might just open his mouth and tell them to get lost...
