Chapter 173: Inquiry Record

These two had obviously communicated, and it looked like Xu Ning was leading, which was the reason Li Xuewu promoted Xu Ning.

Li Xuewu waved his hand to let them sit, took the inquiry record and read it again, and then opened the document bag Xu Ning handed over.

"Li Kezhang, why do you think Engineer Hu Zhengquan has a problem?"

Facing Han Yating's inquiry, Li Xuewu didn't answer for the time being, but opened the document Xu Ning brought. The document bag also had the archive stamp of the Personnel Department.

Li Xuewu looked at the stamp date, 45-year file, 49-year file, 54-year file, all had specific time and audit dates.

Li Xuewu opened the winding, pulled out a pile of materials from inside, and the one on top was Hu Zhengquan's personal information form.

Hu Zhengquan, male, Han nationality, native of Liaoning Province, former worker of Guangbei Steel Factory, promoted to technician during the Japanese-funded enterprise, has been working in the Steel Mill, promoted to engineer in '60.

There were no suspicious points in the resume materials. Li Xuewu flipped through the historical archives in his hand one by one, while Han Yating and the two watched their superior with furrowed brows silently.

These materials were very comprehensive, but not comprehensive.

A person's work situation can be described in words, including every time node, but personal situations cannot be described clearly in words.

The materials only had a few words about Hu Zhengquan's personal life: single, parents died, refugee student...

rice bowl book.

He had definitely been audited more than once, otherwise, so many audit reports of time nodes wouldn't have appeared in the archives.

The more this was the case, the more Li Xuewu suspected, because the previous security departments couldn't have secretly audited him so many times for no reason.

As for why he was still safe and sound now, it might be that the audit had no results, so he hadn't been moved.

Engineers in the experimental building were not ordinary characters. They were key figures in the entire Steel Mill. All designs, processing procedures, material selection, etc., required the participation and design of engineers.

In this matter, Li Xuewu had to be careful and cautious. If he didn't handle it well, problems would arise.

Li Xuewu put down the materials in his hand, lit a cigarette, and his brows were locked, never relaxing.

Han Yating and the two didn't dare to speak, quietly watching Li Xuewu.

"Like this, Yating, go check Hu Zhengquan's social relations. Don't show your face, and don't go to the street and neighbors to check. Go to the telephone bureau to check. He has had a phone at home since he was promoted to engineer. Go check the direction, time, and frequency of his phone calls. Check as long as you can. Open the introduction letter yourself."

"Yes!" Although Han Yating agreed, she didn't leave.

Li Xuewu didn't care about her, and said to Xu Ning: "Don't follow him. These security guards and guard team members in our Steel Mill are all people on the surface, and he knows them all. Like this, you go check where he goes fishing, common supply and marketing cooperatives, and other places, and then get the floor plan of his residence. It must be accurate. A tree, a stone pier must be marked clearly."

"Yes, but Li Kezhang, no one is following, isn't it..."

Li Xuewu waved his hand, "You don't need to worry about this. I will arrange it. Don't act on your own. I want to confront him."

Han Yating was a straightforward person and asked directly: "Li Kezhang, why do you suspect Engineer Hu Zhengquan has a problem?"

Li Xuewu flicked the cigarette ash into the iron ashtray on the table. This ashtray was sent by Liu Guangtian, a piece of iron turned into a square, which was great for hitting people.

"First point, a level 9 engineer, 115 yuan a month, living in an expert apartment building, annual physical examinations all show good health. His hobby column only filled in fishing and photography, doesn't smoke or drink, and the most important thing is that he has always been single."

Hearing Li Xuewu's words, Han Yating was a bit unconvinced and questioned: "This doesn't explain anything, right? Maybe Engineer Hu Zhengquan has a withdrawn personality."

Before Li Xuewu could speak, Xu Ning sneered: "I read his materials. His belief is none, and he is not withdrawn. People in the experimental workshop have a very good impression of him, and he is one of the few high-educated talents in the factory's engineer team, often entering and leaving Huaqing University, saying he is on good terms with the professors inside."

After Xu Ning finished speaking, he asked Li Xuewu: "Li Kezhang, I can only analyze this much for now. What you suspect must be what we haven't thought of."

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes and exhaled a puff of smoke. Only then did he answer: "His line winder."

Xu Ning had seen that line winder and questioned: "Didn't it look like there was no problem at the time? You even said you wanted him to help you process one."

Li Xuewu flicked the cigarette ash, sat up straight, stared at Xu Ning and asked: "Have you fished?"

"No."

"Neither have I."

Watching the two shake their heads, Li Xuewu took out paper and pen and drew the patterns of a throwing rod and a hand rod on the manuscript paper, explaining to the two: "A hand rod is a fishing rod that doesn't need to install a line winder. Hand rod fishing has a wide range of use. Hand rods are suitable for use in water areas with uneven water bottoms like lakes, and are also suitable for fishing in flowing water, but the water flow cannot be fast."

Li Xuewu pointed to the throwing rod and explained: "This kind is called a throwing rod, also called a sea rod. From the name, you can know its general use, that is, it is used in the sea. Of course, it doesn't exclude use in inland lakes and large rivers with wide water areas."

Xu Ning looked at the manuscript paper thoughtfully, while Han Yating asked directly: "What is the difference between these two?"

Li Xuewu pointed to the end of the fishing line: "The hand rod is short, and the fishing range is also small, but its fishing line angle is particularly small, basically hanging straight up and down in the water. This ensures that the fish hook will not hang on water plants when the fish is dragged after being hooked."

Xu Ning suddenly realized: "That is to say, the sea rod is the opposite. If you fish in a near-water lake, there will be a phenomenon of hanging hooks."

Li Xuewu nodded: "The lake surface in the city is frozen to a thickness of almost one and a half meters this season, and the rivers outside the city are also sealed. He definitely won't use a traditional hand rod. Instead, a sea rod with a line winder is best used as a hand rod."

These words made Han Yating and the two contradictory. Xu Ning asked: "Then that's normal..."

Li Xuewu shook his head: "Now fishing requires smashing ice holes, using a short sea rod is also reasonable, but look at the inquiry record. This paragraph says: I work in a noisy environment on weekdays, and just love to enjoy the fun of fishing alone on my day off."

Xu Ning stood up suddenly and rushed to Li Xuewu: "The ice on the large river outside the city is not that thick, but it's over a meter. With his body, by the time he smashes out an ice hole, he will have entered the hospital."

Han Yating asked ignorantly: "Let others smash it, or pick someone else's ice hole?"
