Chapter 72 Investigating the truth

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Qiao Rui took a taxi and went directly to the tea factory.

She thought that she must be careful when she came to Tea Mountain this time. After all, someone had dirty things on her and Mu Yu yesterday, and it must be related to someone from the tea factory.

She had thought about the other party's motives, but she really couldn't figure them out.

Huo Sinan suddenly went into trouble and couldn't contact anyone, which made Qiao Rui have to think that maybe this incident started because of Huo Sinan, and she and Mu Yu were affected.

The car stopped outside the tea factory, and the driver said to her: "Miss, there are relatively few people here. You are a pretty girl, so you'd better be careful."

"Thanks for the reminder." Qiao Rui left the driver's phone number and got out of the car first.

When she arrived at the door of the tea factory, the security guards guarding the door were two uncles in their fifties. They were very enthusiastic when they saw her: "Hello, Miss Rui, why are you here by yourself?"

"Let me ask, did Mr. Huo Sinan come up last night?" Qiao Rui thought he should inquire first.

"Oh, Mr. Huo, I've been here before. They came back at 11:30 last night and left around 12:30." The security guard looked at Qiao Rui and asked with concern: "What's wrong Rui?"

Miss, what happened to Mr. Huo?"

Qiao Rui didn't answer but asked: "Then when they came back, did they meet with Director Xu? Was there any dispute?"

The two security men seemed stunned and hesitant.

Qiao Rui immediately asked, "Looking at the two of you, Mr. Huo is here. Did you have a dispute with someone?"

The security guard was a little embarrassed, but nodded. "We had a few arguments, but we don't know what happened. It was late at night, and we could hear any noise in the house."

"Did the argument last long?" Qiao Rui asked.

"Five or six minutes." Another security uncle said: "It's not very long. Mr. Huo was always angry, but our factory director didn't say much. When he left, Mr. Huo was also angry, and the factory director also gave us a gift

Got him."

Qiao Rui observed the expressions of the two security men. From the looks of it, they probably weren't lying.

Qiao Rui nodded. "Did Director Xu not leave when we left?"

"The front and back legs, they almost left together."

Qiao Rui was confused for a moment. If they left together, would Director Xu have the opportunity to take action against Huo Snan?

"Did they not come back to the tea factory after that?" Qiao Rui asked again.

"Yes, no one came back."

"In general, do we have anyone on duty here at night?"

"Yes, Sister Peng is on duty here."

"Sister Peng?" Qiao Rui thought of the old lady who made tea. "Is she the old lady who makes tea?"

"Yes, she is on duty and lives in the tea factory. She rarely rests." The security uncle said, "She is very pitiful. She has lost her child and it will be difficult to go back."

"The child is gone?" Qiao Rui was a little surprised. "Why didn't he arrive?"

At this time, suddenly a car stopped at the door, and Director Xu's voice rang out: "Hey, isn't this Miss Rui? Why are you here?"

When Qiao Rui turned around, she happened to see Factory Director Xu. He also got out of the car and walked towards Qiao Rui. He still looked at her with stunning eyes. He looked her up and down and said with a smile:

"It's really Miss Rui. I thought I was wrong."

Qiao Rui met Director Xu's gaze, looked him straight in the eyes, and asked: "Director Xu, I would like to ask, do you have any news about Mr. Huo Sinan?"

"Mr. Huo?" Director Xu was stunned for a moment, a little surprised: "What happened to him? Mr. Huo came here last night, scolded me a few times, and then left."

He looked surprised, it didn't look like he was lying.

But sometimes, people are very good at acting.

Qiao Rui couldn't tell whether the other party was lying, but Director Xu was definitely not as simple and honest as he seemed.

"What time is it when we leave?" Qiao Rui asked again, mainly because she wanted to make sure that the time she told the security guard was the same time.

"He came here with Mr. Lei at about 11:30 last night and left at 12:30. He thought I didn't manage the tea factory well. Something happened recently. Someone made trouble for us, and Mr. Huo was very angry."

Director Xu shook his head as he spoke and sighed: "The main responsibility lies with me because I didn't manage it well. If these things hadn't happened, maybe this wouldn't be the case."

"Director Xu, can I know what happened?" Qiao Rui still wanted to find some clues.

"Actually, there's nothing I can't tell people. It's just that some people want to compete with me and help Mr. Huo manage this factory, and then they use some unfair means."

"Isn't it unfair to compete?" Qiao Rui asked.

"Yes, that's about it." Factory Director Xu smiled. "I'm not afraid of your jokes. It's just that one of our former deputy factory directors was fired by me and kept giving me trouble with a grudge."

"Really?" Qiao Rui heard what Director Xu said and didn't really believe him.

"Yes, it's all our internal matter. By the way, Mr. Huo, what happened? Why did you come here to find Mr. Huo?"

"He and Mr. Lei are gone and I can't contact them." Qiao Rui's eyes were fixed on Director Xu's expression, not wanting to miss every change of expression on his face.

After hearing this, Director Xu frowned. "Really? It's amazing that such a thing exists."

Qiao Rui remained calm and continued: "I originally wanted to call the police, but before that, I still want to ask Factory Director Xu to see if you know the specific situation."

"I don't know. He suddenly couldn't be contacted. This is strange."

Qiao Rui still calmly observed the changes in the other party's expression. Factory Director Xu seemed to be sure that something had happened to Huo Snan in an instant.

This is not like the reaction of ordinary people.

Qiao Rui felt that there was something wrong with him.

She looked at Director Xu coldly and said quietly: "Director Xu, Mr. Huo is missing. Could it be that he has something to do with you?"

"Miss Rui is joking. You don't suspect that I kidnapped Mr. Huo. Even if I'm brave, I can't do anything to my boss. It won't do me any good."

"Then how did Director Xu think that Mr. Huo had been kidnapped?" Qiao Rui asked.

"No! I didn't say that Mr. Huo was kidnapped." Director Xu said: "Well, Miss Rui, when you say that, I probably remembered who it might be related to. Why don't you get in the car first and I

Take you there."

He made a gesture to invite Qiao Rui to get in the car. Qiao Rui lowered her eyes and looked at the man's hands. Those hands were rough and thick, and they didn't look like the hands of a manager.

He seems to have boxing and kicking skills, and the back of his hand is extremely thick. It must be that he has such a thick back after practicing boxing for a long time.

Before Qiao Rui could speak, she heard a deep male voice: "Miss Rui, please get in my car. Director Xu will lead the way. Let's go over together and see where Huo Snan is?"

Qiao Rui turned around and met Pei Liyan's starry eyes.

She was startled, as if she didn't expect Pei Liyan to follow.

Pei Liyan was sitting in the car, his eyes fell on Qiao Rui's face, and he said in an indifferent manner: "Get in the car!"
