Hearing this, Zhou Mengting immediately looked at Lin Chen in surprise.
Could it be that this is what Lin Chen meant when he said "useless effort" before?
But how is this possible?
He has never been here before, how do he know there is no one inside?
Zhou Mengting didn't think much, turned to look at the burly man, and said: "Call Mr. Hu back, let's go to the next place."
...Half an hour later, everyone arrived at the second destination.
The three masters took action immediately.
But, in the end, nothing was found.
The burly man said: "There are only a few homeless people inside, no one else."
Suddenly the conversation changed: "Ms. Zhou, is the information you investigated true or false?
Don’t end up drawing water from a bamboo basket in vain.”
Zhou Mengting was in a bad mood, waved her hand and said, "Okay, let's go to the last destination."
The last suspected location is an abandoned unfinished building.
Next to it is a demolition village.
After arriving, the three masters immediately took action.
But, in the end, nothing was found.
Zhou Mengting almost broke the pen in her hand, gritted her teeth and cursed secretly: "Asshole! You came here in vain!"
"Ms. Zhou, I hope you will investigate before taking action next time, otherwise your money will be wasted."
The burly man said impatiently.
Zhou Mengting was in a bad mood and didn't want to say more, so she just said: "Let's go back and let me investigate again..." However, before she could finish her words, Lin Chen suddenly pointed to the demolition village not far away and said:
"Why don't you investigate there?"
"Um?"
Zhou Mengting looked along Lin Chen's fingers.
The next moment, her face suddenly darkened: "Director Lin, that village has been demolished and is now in ruins. How can there be anyone there?"
The burly man mocked: "Haha, Director Lin may think that the guy who kidnapped the engineer is not a human, but a chicken, duck, cat and dog, so he can live in the ruins."
The white-haired old man and the middle-aged woman laughed at each other.
Lin Chen said expressionlessly: "Many rural people have cellars at home for storing cabbage or carrots."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Mengting's eyes lit up.
The buildings on the ground were indeed in ruins.
But what about the one beneath the ground?
According to the investigation, the suspect is most likely hiding nearby. Since he is not in the unfinished building ahead, it is not impossible that he is in the ruined village next to him! We would rather believe it or not, and never let go of any suspicious person.
The location! Therefore, Zhou Mengting said: "You three, go and search that village."
The burly man became even more impatient and said: "Ms. Zhou, the contract clearly states that we will only investigate three locations, but you asked us to investigate the fourth location?"
"I'll add money."
Zhou Mengting is straightforward.
"This is not a matter of money, Miss Zhou. I can guarantee that even if we check the village ahead, we will not gain anything."
The burly man said angrily: "Miss Zhou, you are wasting your time and money! You can't do it just because of his joke."
"Old Sun, Miss Zhou is our employer. If she asks us to do it, then we will do it honestly and don't talk so much nonsense."
Although the white-haired old man was also a little impatient, his patience was obviously better.
"Hey, I don't care, just add more money."
The middle-aged woman smiled optimistically.
"I just don't want to waste time, wasting time is wasting life.
Boss Lin, do you dare to bet with me? I will get absolutely nothing!"
The burly man stared at Lin Chen with a very bad attitude.
Lin Chen smiled faintly: "What's the bet?"
"If the other party is not there, then you have wasted my time and my life. You have to apologize to me and kowtow to apologize!"
The burly man shouted coldly! "What if the other party is there?"
Lin Chen's attitude was still gentle and he asked with a smile.
"Then I kowtow to you and apologize for being rude to you!"
The burly man's chest puffed up! "Okay."
Lin Chen readily agreed.
"Okay! Have fun! Whoever regrets it will be killed!"
The burly man smiled coldly: "Mr. Hu, Sister Liu, let's go, let's go search the barren ruins in front of us!"
The three of them left.
As soon as the three of them left, Zhou Mengting angrily shouted: "Director Lin! Why did you agree to him?
He is a professional, what bet do you make with him?
Why do you think you can win?
!”
"I was forced too, okay?
He has already said that, and if I don’t agree, I will no longer be a man.”
Lin Chen spread his hands.
"You don't even have this bit of patience, you, you, you are such a loser!"
Zhou Mengting was so angry that she was shaking all over.
No matter what, Lin Chen is still the chairman of Lingwei Electronic Technology Company. If he kneels down to others, where does that leave her, Zhou Mengting?
Where will the thousands of employees in Lingwei be located?
This Lin Chen, doesn’t he have some ideas in mind?
! "You are really, really..." Zhou Mengting became more and more angry as she thought about it, pointing at Lin Chen, her fingers shaking.
Lin Chen was calm and composed.
Facts are the best way to slap someone in the face.
So, just wait and see what happens.
... Time flows by minute by minute.
Seven or eight minutes later.
The three returned empty-handed.
The burly man sneered: "Boss Lin, I'm sorry to tell you that there is no one there, so please fulfill your promise."
Zhou Mengting gritted her teeth and stared at Lin Chen, hating that iron could never become steel! How can she act blindly if she has no ability?
It's okay now. It's time to kneel down and kowtow. Are you satisfied?
! Lin Chen did not speak, but glanced at the white-haired old man, who lowered his head.
He glanced at the middle-aged woman again, who also had her head lowered.
Neither of them seemed to be able to look directly at him.
"Haha, Boss Lin, if you don't fulfill your promise now, how long will it take?"
The burly man urged with a sneer.
Zhou Mengting plans to persuade him to make peace.
As the general manager of Lingwei, she couldn't just watch this loser kneel down.
However, before she could speak, Lin Chen suddenly said: "You lied about life and death for an unfounded bet. People like you are worse than scum."
The voice was cold! The burly man's eyes flashed slightly and he said: "Boss Lin, I don't understand what you are talking about. Please don't slander me!"
"You still don't admit it?"
Lin Chen smiled.
He got out of the car and walked away.
Zhou Mengting tilted her head, thought for a moment, and immediately followed Lin Chen.
The white-haired old man and the middle-aged woman looked at each other and both smiled bitterly.
... Lin Chen came to the center of the village.
In front of his feet was a pile of turned soil.
Use your feet to drive away soil.
A wooden plank came into view.
This is the wooden door of the cellar.
With a creak, Lin Chen pulled it open.
It was pitch dark inside and there was no movement.
Zhou Mengting frowned slightly.
There's no one here either.
However, the next moment, in the cellar, a "wuwuwu" sound suddenly sounded! This was a sound that could only be made with the throat because the mouth was blocked! Zhou Mengting's face changed! She immediately turned her head to look at the three people behind her.
, asked: "Three of you, who are these people?"
The burly man replied: "Yes, he is a homeless man."
But why are homeless people gagged?
Who would kidnap a homeless man?
Zhou Mengting had a sullen face and shouted: "You three, bring him up!"
The burly man stood motionless on the ground.
The white-haired old man smiled bitterly.
Only the middle-aged woman was serious. After hearing this, she jumped into the cellar without climbing the ladder.
