Chapter 207: Betrayal

~11 min read 2,042 words

The inspection is faster now. The inspection personnel basically check the things the workers carry, and they don't check their bodies.

Sometimes the steel slag or debris left in the workers' pockets can attract a burst of dog barking, which makes the workers in the queue start searching their pockets to see if there are any residues.

The speed of the queue is fast, the inspection personnel save effort, and the workers save time. Although there will be some small misunderstandings, it is still very gratifying to see the role of police dogs.

It used to take more than ten minutes to queue, but now it only takes a few minutes, which greatly improves the passing speed of workers leaving the factory.

The workers were discussing this change in the queue, but Hu Zhengquan, who was in the queue, had sweat on his forehead.

Hu Zhengquan saw ten big dogs squatting at the gate. Sometimes they would "wang wang" when they smelled an odor. Seven or eight out of ten times, they found something. Although it wasn't carried intentionally, this inspection effect really put a lot of pressure on Hu Zhengquan.

The greater pressure on Hu Zhengquan was the Investigation Department personnel standing inside the gate. Today, both morning and afternoon, the Security Squad took the Investigation Department personnel to visit and investigate the missing classified document and Han Gong's disappearance case, including the people who picked up Han Gong and those who accompanied him.

Another pressure was Li Xuewu standing outside the gate. The two people's gazes had already intertwined several times. Although Hu Zhengquan was stabilizing his mind and expression, in the eyes of outsiders, Hu Zhengquan had no changes and was still that gentle engineer image.

The flow of people moved little by little, and the gazes of Li Xuewu and Comrade Comrade Ji Weidong also moved with Hu Zhengquan's position. This gaze even made Xu Ning, Han Zhan, and Han Yating look at Hu Zhengquan.

As the saying goes, "what the superior does, the subordinate follows." The people the section chief and squad leader were staring at were also stared at by other security and guard team members.

People who have nothing on their minds would be confused if they were stared at like this, let alone Hu Zhengquan, who had a huge matter on his mind. Seeing that he was walking normally, he was actually already sweating.

If it weren't for Hu Zhengquan pulling his cotton hat low, perhaps the sweat on his forehead would have dripped down his cheeks by now.

Hu Zhengquan finally walked to the inspection position under the lock of more than a dozen gazes. Just as he handed over his briefcase, he heard bursts of dog barking.

"Wang wang wang."

"Wang wang wang."

"Wang wang wang."

It wasn't just one dog barking, but all ten dogs were barking at Hu Zhengquan. Seeing Hu Zhengquan's face change drastically and about to make a move, a jeep drove over from the office building. It stepped on the brakes with a "screech" at the gate, letting the jeep slide forward for several meters. The driver sitting in the car didn't get out but kept honking the horn.

This horn sound mixed with the dog barking made everyone around frown due to the noise, and they all turned their attention to the jeep.

But looking at the license plate of the jeep, they knew it was the Factory Director's car. Of course, it couldn't be driven by the Factory Director, nor could it be driven by the Factory Director's driver. It must be the Factory Director's bastard brother-in-law, who sometimes takes advantage of the Factory Director's absence or when he goes out in someone else's car to drive his brother-in-law's car out for a "joyride."

And don't say, it really is a joyride. The current jeep is really leaking wind everywhere. You have to wear a big cotton-padded jacket to sit in the jeep in winter. If you sit for a long time, you have to stop and run for a while, otherwise you'll freeze stiff.

Li Xuewu also glanced at the jeep. Looking from the front, Huang Ping was sitting in the driver's seat.

"Hurry up, get out of the way, didn't you see the car coming?" Seeing that the guard at the factory gate just watched and didn't give way, Huang Ping lost his patience, kicked the door open, stood on the pedal, and shouted at this side.

Every day when getting off work, the factory leaders' small cars don't go through the main gate, but go around to the gate near the dormitory. That gate can only enter and exit vehicles at this time, so there is no inspection post.

Huang Ping must have done it on purpose to save trouble. He didn't dare to provoke the Security Section when Li Xuewu was in the Security Section before, and always went around the small gate. But today was different. Today Li Xuewu had stepped down, so he deliberately walked through the main gate.

Under Li Xuewu's signal, Han Zhan said to Yan Jiecheng: "Tell him to go to the side gate. Doesn't he know the rules?"

Yan Jiecheng had just offended his squad leader, so how could he dare to talk nonsense? He saluted, carried his long gun, walked in front of the jeep, and shouted courageously: "Cars are not allowed here, go around to the side gate."

After Huang Ping finished shouting, seeing a small security guard come over to reply to him, he squinted his eyes and looked at Li Xuewu, who had a serious face, and then looked at the gate. Seeing the dogs barking at the inspection post, he mocked: "Heh, things that rely on the power of others. Your backer has been laid off, and you're still barking! Do you still think you're royal relatives? Bah!"

After Huang Ping finished his insinuations, he said to Hu Zhengquan, who looked like he was about to collapse from being scared by the dogs: "Engineer Hu, get in my car and go back. I'll take you. You ran away halfway after talking about introducing a university teacher to me last night. Let's go talk about this in detail now."

Seeing that a savior had come, Hu Zhengquan was naturally willing. He steadied his mind, tucked in the cuffs that the dogs were staring at, took the briefcase that the security guard had just finished checking, and walked toward Huang Ping's car.

"That would be great. Teacher Wang also intends to recognize the number one young talent in our steel mill."

Han Zhan glared at Yan Jiefang. Yan Jiefang cried and nodded, then shouted at Huang Ping: "Cars are not allowed here, go to the side gate, hurry up."

weeping.

Huang Ping was deliberately looking for trouble. Seeing that the person who came to talk was like a woman, and his voice was weak when he shouted at him, he was even more contemptuous of the Security Section that had lost its backbone, Li Xuewu.

Seeing that Huang Ping ignored him, Huang Ping shouted at the gate guard: "Good dogs don't block the way. If I drive over in a while and you don't dodge, it's your own business if something happens."

Seeing that Huang Ping didn't pay attention to him, Yan Jiecheng felt that he was a joke. Turning his head to see Han Zhan's eyes behind him that could eat people, just like Yu Li's eyes last night, Yan Jiecheng, like last night, shrank his neck again, pretending not to hear or see anything.

Han Zhan saw Yan Jiecheng playing dead, walked to the gate, and said to Huang Ping: "Try driving one."

Huang Ping angrily got into the car, slammed the door, and stepped on the accelerator to drive over here. But seeing Han Zhan wave his hand, the guard team members who were holding the dogs took off the dogs' muzzles and made a gesture to release the dogs.

Other alert security guards all picked up their guns and aimed directly at the jeep.

The roof and sides of the jeep were canvas. It was freezing cold in winter. Not to mention that they were all holes, the dogs could still drill in from the window. Even if they couldn't drill in, they could scare people to death.

Huang Ping was afraid of dogs since he was a child. Seeing the guard team members were about to release the dogs to bite him, those dogs were all barking and biting toward the jeep like crazy, which was truly terrifying.

Huang Ping backed the car up and shouted at Li Xuewu's side from the canvas window: "Damn it, you bullied me when Li Xuewu was the section chief, and you still bully me when Li Xuewu stepped down. Then Li Xuewu stepped down in vain. You wait, tomorrow I'll call you dog things to step down just like Li Xuewu!"

After speaking, he drove the jeep toward the side gate in a flash.

Comrade Comrade Ji Weidong stood in front of the gate, looked at Li Xuewu, and said: "Is this all your ability? You can't even handle such a piece of trash, and you still act as a security cadre? Heh, smiling tiger, heh, you're quite soft."

Han Zhan saw Comrade Comrade Ji Weidong mocking Li Xuewu and wanted to chase after him toward the office building, but was pulled by Xu Ning, who whispered something in Han Zhan's ear, which stopped Han Zhan.

The gate became messy because of a farce, and restored order because of the departure of the farce's owner, Huang Ping. The guards put muzzles on the dogs and continued the inspection.

Li Xuewu waved his hand at Han Yating. Han Yating nodded in agreement, went to the parking lot to take the car, and left. Zhao Yajun and the other three also left together, and the others had already gone to the bookstore one step ahead.

Hu Zhengquan sat in Huang Ping's car, listening to Huang Ping cursing the Security Section, nodding and echoing, but his heart was already in chaos.

The situation was too urgent. This document was in his sleeve, watched by the Security Section, watched by the Investigation Department, and watched by so many dogs. It was thanks to this stick beside him that he was able to escape.

This document is a hot potato. It can't stay in his hands any longer. He must meet with the organization. It must be sent out. After sending it, he will leave.

Hu Zhengquan still didn't understand how this document got into his hands, but the person who met him today indicated that the danger had been eliminated, but didn't say who put it there. Could it be that there was someone else lurking in the Experimental Building like him?

He wanted to investigate, but this matter was too urgent, and there was no time to test the authenticity of the matter. He had worried to death after leaving the document in the office for a day yesterday. Fortunately, when he went this morning, the lock was intact and the document was still there.

Hu Zhengquan already knew something was wrong in his heart. He had been contacting the organization since the night before yesterday. Although the hidden danger was handled for him yesterday, there was no new resettlement plan, only constantly telling him to take the document out.

Today Hu Zhengquan contacted his liaison again, but the phone couldn't get through, there was no news, and he sent a secret signal to wait by Tuanjie Lake, but no one came.

Hu Zhengquan knew that person's work location was special, and ordinary people couldn't find him, so he couldn't take the initiative to contact him. Now things were getting more and more serious, and he couldn't wait any longer. He had to go.

There was another person who wanted to go just like Hu Zhengquan, and that was Feng Xiang. If you don't want people to know, don't do it yourself. He knew what he had done.

He had betrayed the organization and confessed so many things. Sooner or later, the organization would know. He had to leave before the organization knew.
