"Dad. Did Liu call the police?"
Lan Xi was worried about losing important documents and hurriedly asked his father.
Lan Tianxing said: "Not yet. Lao Liu wanted to call the police, but I stopped him. Besides, it's not me who has the final say whether to call the police or not. So no matter how serious the problem is, I'll talk about it after I go back and look at it."
Liang Huan said nothing. He was observing Lan Tianxing's reaction. I found that Lan Tianxing didn’t seem to pay much attention to this matter. If it were him, he would have rushed back to deal with it as soon as he learned that the company's confidential documents had been stolen, instead of waiting here for Lan Xi and Xu Shasha.
But it's hard for him to make judgments on some things. The company has a company confidentiality system. If you call the police, you may worry that more people will know what type of files were lost. It may be safer to choose not to call the police.
Lan Xi said nothing more and took out his cell phone to call several department managers, urging them to come to the company quickly.
Lan Tianxing leaned on the cushion and remained silent. As the chairman of the company, he has all-round considerations.
Arriving in front of the company's office building, Liang Huan found that several department managers had already arrived. Their journey is relatively short.
Old Liu ran over with two security guards in a hurry. Liang Huan knew the two security guards. One was named Liu Degui, who was in his forties and had a beard on his chin. A man named Shan Qingyun is in his fifties and has a thin build. Looks a bit ugly.
After Lan Tianxing got off the car, he pulled Lao Liu aside and asked, "Who was on duty last night?"
Old Liu looked back at the two security guards who were talking to the general manager and said, "It's Degui and Qingyun."
"I understand. Go and tell Liu Degui and Shan Qingyun that I will see them later."
"Yes, Chairman."
Old Liu looked extremely anxious, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
In fact, he received a call from his nephew Liu Degui before dawn. When he heard that the company had been robbed, he was so frightened that he almost rolled off the bed. Then he immediately put on his clothes and rode an electric bike to the company, and did not choose to report the situation to the chairman and general manager immediately. It was a coincidence that there were only two security guards on duty last night. All staff have gone home.
Liang Huan had already noticed this detail from the side. Already aware of the problem.
So he came up to Lan Xi and whispered something. Liu Degui and Shan Qingyun looked at each other and left quietly.
"Except for the two security guards guarding the door, no one is allowed in. Everyone else follows me in."
Lan Tianxing issued the order. Lan Xi quickly followed up.
Liang Huan did not follow immediately, but stood in the open space downstairs of the company, looking up at the window of Lan Xi's office.
I clearly remember that when I left after get off work yesterday afternoon, I found the window of the president's office open. But now it's closed.
And Lan Xi had just arrived, so it was impossible for him to turn into a mosquito and fly in and close the window. This thief was not very clever and even ignored the simplest problem and did not deal with it before leaving. Then the thief's fingerprints must have been left on the window sill.
Realizing this, he immediately chased after him and reported the situation to Lan Xi. Only then did Lan Xi remember that she had indeed opened the window when she left after get off work yesterday. Xu Shasha asked her at that time, and her answer was that she deliberately opened the window for ventilation. Unexpectedly, a thief sneaked in last night and stole the important information in the safe.
So Lan Xi and Liang Huan got to the second floor of the company before everyone else. Went directly to her president's office.
The office door is open. Everything inside was messed up. The safe in the corner was open and there was nothing inside. All confidential documents in the company are directly kept by the general manager. The files Xu Shasha is responsible for archiving are not very important.
"Mr. Lan, what should I do? All the documents in the safe are missing."
Liang Huan couldn't help but worry. He knew very well that if Lan Xi made a mistake in this matter, Liang Huan, his personal medical practitioner and bodyguard, would also be secretly scrutinized by the company's top management. Although he is not a company employee, he has heard Lan Xi say it before. The company has customized a relatively complete set of confidentiality measures. Once someone has a problem or leaks the company's secrets, they will be subject to isolation and review by the company's senior management.
Lantianxing chose not to call the police, which meant that it wanted to deal with the theft of documents secretly.
Lan Tianxing and several other leaders arrived one after another.
Lan Xi sat on the chair in the office with a frown on her face. When her father came in, she said, "Dad, I'm sorry, several important documents you asked me to keep were stolen. The two gold bars you gave me are also missing."
Lan Tianxing didn't want to blame his daughter in front of everyone, so he went closer to look at the opened safe and asked: "Apart from a few documents and gold bars, are there any other valuables stored in the safe? Such as valuable necklaces, bracelets, etc." .”
"No, I never buy those things. What I'm wearing is the one my dad bought for me a year ago."
"Let's go to the assistant's office next door and see what's going on."
Lan Tianxing said as he walked towards the door. Several other leaders were already questioning Xu Shasha in the office next door.
Liang Huan heard the questioning voice next door, so he leaned into Lan Xi's ear and said something.
Lan Xi was surprised, looked up at him without speaking, then nodded and went to Xu Shasha's office.
Xu Shasha stood dejectedly in front of her desk and accepted Lan Tianxing's inquiry. When Lan Xi walked in from the outside, he seemed to have seen a savior, and immediately ran over and hugged Lan Xi. Lan Xi knew it was not her fault, they were together last night. Xu Shasha could not be suspected. No one expected this to happen.
Liang Huan carefully investigated in the president's office. Before they entered, Lao Liu and two security guards should have already arrived. The footprints on the ground must be all messed up. Even if the police were called to investigate, it would be difficult to tell who the thief was from the footprints. The question now is how to find a breakthrough in the case to clear himself and Lan Xi and Xu Shasha of suspicion.
If the judgment is correct, several other leaders in the company must be suspecting that they are committing theft.
Thinking of this, Liang Huan walked over and observed the window carefully. But before you get the evidence, don't dare to get too close to the window, lest you wear away the traces left by the thief. So he took out a pair of medical gloves from his pocket and put them on, then took out the magnifying glass he carried with him and looked at the traces on the windowsill one by one. Several fingerprints were found on the window. Immediately take a photo of the fingerprint with your phone and save it.
The mobile phone he had was modified by himself when he was a medic in the army. The shooting function is very powerful. Even better than ordinary microscopes. It feels very clear when taking fingerprint images. But the fingerprints are significantly different. It doesn't look like it belongs to one person.
Then he took a magnifying glass and looked at the safe and desk drawers. Strangely, no similar fingerprints or traces were found.
Lan Xi has a habit of cleaning the office in person every other day. This includes wiping down the safe, desk and all chairs inside with a wet towel. Even the window sills have to be cleaned.
Not to mention the kettle and thermos cup on the table. Cleaned almost every day.
When he came yesterday, Lan Xi walked through the office.
So here comes the question. Among the few fingerprints left on the window sill, Lan Xi must be among them. Because Lan Xi made it clear that when she left after get off work yesterday, she opened the window. This is also true. She opened the window for ventilation.
Because apart from the thief, he and Xu Shasha were the only ones who had come in between yesterday and now.
He had never even taken a step closer to the window sill, let alone left his fingerprints on it.
The inquiries next door continued. Liang Huan packed up and went to the assistant's office next door to inquire about the situation.
At this moment, Lao Liu suddenly appeared at the door of the president's office.
Old Liu said: "Dr. Liang, Mr. Lan asked you to come over."
"Okay, I'll be right away."
After speaking, Liang Huan stuffed the phone into his pocket. Then he went with Lao Liu to see Lan Xi.
Lan Xi was already waiting for him in the lounge at the end of the corridor. Lan Tianxing and Xu Shasha were also there.
No wonder I didn't see the three of them when I passed Xu Shasha's office. Just a few department managers were whispering something.
"Dr. Liang, tell me your opinion on this matter."
When Lan Tianxing saw him coming in, he immediately asked him to sit down and talk.
Lan Xi stared at him without speaking. Xu Shasha was also staring at him. However, Xiao Nizi's face showed pessimism, which shows that this incident has a certain impact on her career. Several department heads may have suspected that she was committing theft. Otherwise, Xu Shasha, who is optimistic by nature and has nothing to do with this matter, would not be in such a mood.
Liang Huan pulled up a chair and sat down and said: "Chairman, Mr. Lan, since you can trust me, I will analyze what I saw and thought of you. This is what I think. When I left after get off work yesterday, Mr. Lan opened the window Yes. Mr. Lan said to open the window for ventilation to prevent the air in the office from being stale when I go to work the next day. Mr. Lan, tell me, do you mean this? "
Lan Xi was stunned for a moment. She hadn't even had time to mention this to her father yet. It was a good thing for Liang Huan to speak out for her first.
But it’s unclear what this kid wants to do, so don’t be busy and listen to what he has to say.
In an instant, Lan Xi was mentally prepared to be isolated and examined. Once it's on the table, you can't escape. This is the company's rule. Not to mention she was a general manager. I remember that at the end of last year, my father lost a confidential document. As a result, it attracted great attention from the board of directors and was interrogated collectively by the directors for most of the day.
Xu Shasha looked at Liang Huan in surprise, feeling that this guy was too brave. He actually said that to Mr. Lan in front of the chairman.
Lan Tianxing: "Lan Xi, is this the case? Who told you to open the window when you came home from get off work?"
Lan Xi pursed her lips unconvinced: "Anyway, the matter is over, and Dr. Liang has spoken out for me. I am willing to accept the company's review and punishment. Otherwise, what else can I do."
"You still talk back to me after saying a few words, and you don't look like a CEO."
Lan Tianxing was so angry that he slapped Lan Xi.
"I was born to follow my parents, so I will follow your temper." Lan Xi was still dissatisfied and almost shouted loudly.
She was also very unlucky. The first time she came home from get off work and opened the window for ventilation, she was visited by a thief. Why are you so unlucky?
"Chairman, please calm down. I took a few fingerprints in the president's office. There must be Mr. Lan's fingerprints, but there are also others. I remember that Mr. Lan had already wiped the windows and objects in the office when he went to work yesterday. . Except Lan always had access to that window. Although Assistant Xu and I went in, we didn’t get close to the window. So I think one or two of the fingerprints must have been accidentally left by the thief."
After speaking, Liang Huan opened the phone and pulled out the captured fingerprint picture and handed it to Lan Tianxing.
Lan Tianxing took the phone and looked carefully, and sure enough he found several clear fingerprints. I really didn’t expect Liang Huan to have expertise in this area.
Surprised, Lan Xi immediately pulled Liang Huan out to talk. Xu Shasha glanced at the mobile phone in Lan Tianxing's hand and ran out immediately.
There were a few people wandering around in the corridor of the office building. Among them were Lao Liu and two department managers.
Lan Xi said: "Dr. Liang, thank you for helping me out. But I have one thing to ask. Are you sure any of those fingerprints were left by the thief?"
"Call Assistant Xu to ask about the situation. Did she touch the window sill when she entered your office yesterday?"
Before Liang Huan finished speaking, Xu Shasha ran out.
"Shasha, come here. Doctor Liang has something to ask you."
Xu Shasha didn't say anything and ran over quickly.
Liang Huan said: "Assistant Xu, let me ask you, when you went to the president's office to hand in documents yesterday, did you touch that window? Recall it carefully and see if you did?"
Xu Shasha reached out and touched her head, thought for a while and said, "No. I have never been close to the window. I have always been talking to Mr. Lan at the desk. I can swear to God, absolutely not."
Liang Huan: "This is easy to handle. I will check who else's fingerprints besides Mr. Lan."
