The driver drove the taxi eloquently, driving Zhan Jingyi through this tall and neat city, heading straight to his friend's company in the east district of the city.
As the car approached its destination, the style of the surrounding buildings began to change. What appeared in the distance were tall buildings rising from the ground one after another, seemingly with a strong aura.
This is the financial center of Spring City. According to the driver's words, thousands of transactions are carried out here every day, and the amount involved may be hundreds of thousands.
This is a world that ordinary people cannot relate to. Even if the driver boldly imagines it, it is only a few hundred thousand. If he really knows the daily transaction volume here, it is conservatively estimated that hundreds of millions of funds are flowing.
I am afraid that the driver can drive the car directly into the ditch. This is a place that most ordinary people will never be able to visit in their lifetime. It has lush gardens, squares paved with neat and clean stone slabs, and wide, smooth roads. .
Soon, the taxi drove into a wide square. In the center of the square was an office building with almost thirty floors. Many neatly dressed men and women were walking in and out of this tall building.
After Zhan Jingyi paid for the taxi, he said a friendly farewell to the driver. He stood outside the gate of this luxury office building and looked up at the building in front of him. His friend's branch was on the 12th floor of this building.
As he was about to walk in, he saw from the corner of his eye a police car parked not far from the square. A young woman was arguing with a policeman. Occasionally, he could hear the woman yelling hysterically.
But because he was far away, he couldn't hear what the woman was shouting, so he didn't mind his own business. Zhan Jingyi walked into the lobby, registered at the security desk in the lobby, and took the elevator directly to the 12th floor.
…
"Ding dong"......
The elevator stopped at the 12th floor. Zhan Jingyi stepped out of the elevator, looked around and saw that the company on the left was the branch his friend Mo Wenti had mentioned.
Zhan Jingyi walked along the corridor and came to the door of the company. He saw the words Jiuyuan Trading Spring City Branch written on the wall behind the reception desk. He nodded. This was the branch his friend told him about. Looking at the reception desk, there was no one there. He After hesitating for a moment, he walked in directly.
After walking into the company, I heard a burst of laughter coming from a distance. It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon and it was not far from get off work. It seemed that everyone was in a very relaxed mood.
Amidst bursts of laughter, Zhan Jingyi walked into the company and faced a hall. At this time, some of the company employees in the hall were lying on the partitions, and there were no less than two people who were probably married. The child’s female colleagues were chatting with each other with smiles. Some of them were in the tea room, lowering their voices and whispering...
Zhan Jingyi even heard stories about who had his face scratched by his wife, which colleague was dressed beautifully today, and some slightly bald men had arranged to go to a bar together after get off work...
Zhan Jingyi, who was always in a good mood because he was about to see his friend, felt the good working atmosphere here and was very happy for his friend. What a company with a good atmosphere.
Zhan Jingyi stood there, looked around, found no sign of his friend, and walked quickly towards a partition.
Coming to this partition, a middle-aged woman was lying on the partition, chatting animatedly with a young man in another partition.
"Hello!" Zhan Jingyi stood at the partition and greeted politely.
Hearing his voice, the middle-aged woman turned back to look at him and saw a young man she didn't recognize. She was a little surprised and asked, "Who are you? What's the matter?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Mo Wenti. I'm his friend."
Following Zhan Jingyi's not-so-loud words, the next moment, the atmosphere in the office began to freeze inch by inch.
Everyone stopped moving at this moment, their eyes fixed on Zhan Jingyi.
This change shocked Zhan Jingyi. What was wrong with what he just said?
…
"Wow..."
Soon, everyone recovered, and everyone seemed to suddenly become busy, either getting files or turning on the computer, or immediately lowering their heads to summarize the unfinished work.
"What's going on? Is this guy Mo Wenti so unpopular?"
Zhan Jingyi was a little baffled when he saw this scene, and thought strangely: "Why does it feel like his colleagues reacted so strangely?"
"Haha, you are very diligent today, and your work attitude is worthy of encouragement. Please work harder and strive to achieve better results this month. Don't imitate Mo Wenti's stupid young man... Then who, Xiao Liu, put him The seats have been cleared and new people will come tomorrow.”
Before Zhan Jingyi could say anything, a middle-aged bald man walked in excitedly outside the door with a bag under his arm.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the office was much more tense and happy than before, I thought that my usual strict orders were effective, and I felt very good. I walked into the office while boasting.
As he walked, he told his subordinates not to forget the work they had to do before leaving get off work.
But as they were talking, they suddenly noticed that everyone's faces looked a little strange, and they seemed to be secretly looking in one direction.
He turned his head subconsciously and looked in that direction.
I saw a young man standing there, tall and tall, with a delicate appearance, an inexplicable smile on his face, and a scar at the corner of his left eye.
Who is this? Seeing a stranger, the smile on the middle-aged man's face suddenly tightened and he asked, "Who are you? What's the point of being here?"
Zhan Jingyi seemed not to have heard what he said before, and said with a smile on his face: "Hello, leader, I'm looking for Mo Wenti, I'm his friend."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed and he said: "This..."
…
"Are you Mo Wenti's friend? Why don't I know you?"
Before the middle-aged man could speak, a voice came from outside the door. The voice seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Zhan Jingyi turned around and looked at the place where the sound came from.
There was a girl standing there. She didn't look outstanding. She was quite tall. She was wearing a pink silk shirt and a black high-waisted skirt. She looked very fashionable. Her shoes were a pair of exquisite small high heels. The main color is black, with some sequin decorations on it, making her look more dazzling.
Her hair is in a delicate wavy style, scattered on the shoulders, looking very elegant. The girl wears exquisite eye makeup and lipstick to make her look more charming.
Overall, this girl looks very elegant, fashionable and charming in her dress.
At this moment, the girl was looking at him with a frown, as if wondering who he was?
"My name is Zhan Jingyi, you are Mo Wenti's..."
Zhan Jingyi suddenly remembered why this girl's voice was familiar. Wasn't this the woman who was arguing with the police downstairs just now?
"Oh, you are Zhan Jingyi. I heard Mo Wenti tell you that you were his childhood friend. Hello, I am Mo Wenti's girlfriend Wu Yali."
As the girl said this, she walked quickly to Zhan Jingyi and stretched out her hand to him.
Seeing how friendly the girl was, Zhan Jingyi reached out to shake her hand and found that the girl's palms were sweaty, as if she was nervous about something.
"What happened to Mo Wenti? Why do I hear that something seems to have happened to him?"
Zhan Jingyi's eyes showed a hint of coldness as he looked at Wu Yali and said.
Hearing this, Wu Yali showed a wry smile and said, "I don't know the details. I only know that he was arrested by a guard under the Spring City Security Hall this morning."
"Moreover, I heard from Manager Liu that he is suspected of corruption, misappropriation of public funds and other crimes and will be sentenced to at least 10 years in prison."
As she spoke, Wu Yali pointed at the middle-aged man who came in later. It seemed that he was Manager Liu.
"I have been with Mo Wenti for almost three years. I originally planned to get married before this year. I know his character very well. How could he embezzle and embezzle public funds? This is obviously a frame-up."
"I came here today because I received information and came to see Manager Liu to find out why he was being framed."
When Zhan Jingyi heard Wu Yali's words, his eyes stared directly at Manager Liu, with something called danger flowing in his eyes.
"What kind of frame-up? The evidence we provided to the Security Bureau is complete. This kid Mo Wenti was so greedy that he did such a thing. I enforce the law impartially and kill relatives with justice." Manager Liu heard that Wu Yali If so, he retorted loudly.
"There's no need for me to tell you this. That...that one, call me the security guards and drive them away."
With that said, Manager Liu turned and walked towards the back office, giving instructions to his subordinates as he walked.
