Chapter 1715


    Five minutes...


    Ten minutes...


    Over half an hour passed.


    The police officers finally found the surveince footage from the time of the incident in the monitoring room. Yu Meixia, the person involved, was naturally called over, and Dong Xuebing, Mr. Zhou, General Manager Wu, and others also went to the monitoring room around the corner.


    "Ms. Yu, is this the time?"


    "Yes, it was around this time in the morning."


    "Alright, let''s take a look. Xiao Liu, y it."


    "Okay, Deputy Chief Chang. This is it. I''ll fast forward a bit."


    The camera in the hallway showed the date and time of the incident. The fast-forwarded footage showed no abrupt jumps; the camera was fixed. Suddenly, a figure appeared. The police quickly stopped fast-forwarding. General Manager Wu, alone, used keys to open the door and entered the room. Shortly after, Yu Meixia''s figure appeared in the hallway and entered the office. The critical surveince footage showed that Yu Meixia suddenly ran out of the office three minutester in a panic, heading towards the end of the corridor where the restroom was located. Momentster, three security guards arrived, including two who Dong Xuebing had hit. They entered the office and quickly emerged. They searched the hallway but found no one. Eventually, General Manager Wu exited the room alone and took the elevator.The surveince yback ended.


    The officer said, "That''s it."


    Deputy Chief Chang looked at General Manager Wu and Mr. Zhou. "Isn''t it clear enough?"


    "I don''t think it''s clear at all," Mr. Zhou retorted. "What does this prove?"


    Deputy Chief Chang looked at him squarely. "Then tell me, why did Ms. Yu suddenly run away?"


    Pressing the gauze on his nose, General Manager Wu said, "She came for an interview, performed poorly, and had nothing special, so I decided to send her away. Nothing happened. She must have been upset and couldn''t ept the rejection, so she ran out like that. That''s probably how it happened."


    Yu Meixia interjected angrily, "You... you''re lying!"


    Dong Xuebing''s eyes turned cold. Finding death!


    Deputy Chief Chang also felt they were treating them like fools. He countered, "Then why did Ms. Yu run to hide in the restroom?"


    General Manager Wu replied, "Who can prove she was hiding?"


    A police officer snapped, "Why did your security guards search the entire building?"


    General Manager Wu nced around and continued, "She was quite distraught. She''s been a star, so not passing the interview must have been a big psychological blow for her. She couldn''t ept this reality, that''s why she acted out. I was worried she mightmit suicide by jumping off the building, so I had the security guards help find her, tofort her, and then send her back."


    Deputy Chief Chang turned to the security guards from thepany. "What do you say?"


    One security guard Dong Xuebing had hit immediately said, "Yes, that''s right. General Manager Wu asked us to find her, afraid that woman might jump off andmit suicide."


    "That''s correct."


    "Yes."


    The other two security guards echoed.


    Deputy Chief Chang sneered, "Do you think we''re fools?"


    The police officers also felt they were being treated like toddlers.


    Unfortunately, Mr. Zhou and thepany''s senior management seemed to take everything for granted,pletely oblivious to any wrongdoing. Mr. Zhou said, "That''s how it is. It''s that simple. The surveince video already proves it. It''s not ourpany''s fault; they''re falsely using us. We reserve the right to take legal action. As for the rest, let the police handle it. Why haven''t they arrested anyone yet?"


    A police officer responded, "We haven''t finished investigating this matter!"


    Mr. Zhou blinked, "Isn''t it already clear? Ourpany''s General Manager Wu was trying to be kind, fearing something might happen to that woman. How did it turn out that we''re in the wrong? There''s no sound in the video, no other evidence. How can you be so sure he wanted to harass her? What''s the identity of ourpany''s general manager? And what''s the identity of that woman? Just a rural person, right? Isn''t it still unclear? When she couldn''t get what she wanted, she resorted to such despicable means to extort and falsely use us. Officers, I suggest not only taking away this young man who hit someone but also investigating this woman''s motives!"


    Turning the tables!


    General Manager Wu and otherpany executives also chimed in.


    "Yes!"


    "This is outrageous!"


    "How dare they falsely use us!"


    "Take them all away! What audacity!"


    Deputy Director Chang and several police officers frowned, their expressions darkened. Although everyone knew what they wanted, the limitations of the surveince were significant; they couldn''t prove anything. They were somewhat at a loss. Seeing these people from thepanymitting perjury together, arguing sophistically, and being arrogant, Deputy Director Chang was angry but also felt sympathetic towards them. He shook his head inwardly and nced at Dong Xuebing.


    Dong Xuebing, furious yet smiling ironically, said, "Well said, very well said. Today, I''ve seen it myself. But unfortunately, I think you''ve chosen the wrong person to be arrogant with. Bullying me around? You guys are really funny." Dong Xuebing even chuckled, "Thanks to the efforts of the policerades. I''ll handle this matter myself. I didn''t want to do this, but you forced my hand. Mr. Zhou, as thepany boss, let me confirm with you onest time. I suggest you think this through. If you and yourpany apologize to my friend now, I won''t say anything more about this. We''ll leave, and that''ll be the end of it."


    Mr. Zhou sneered, "What are you thinking? You should be the ones apologizing to us now! And your friend! Shouldn''t this woman also apologize? Ourpany won''t be falsely used like this! Assault, property damage, false usations—don''t you owe us an exnation?"


    Dong Xuebing replied calmly, "Alright then. Don''t me meter."


    "We won''t. Don''t worry!" General Manager Zhou and the others thought Dong Xuebing was bluffing. Regret? What do we have to regret? You should be the one regretting it! Don''t you know the power of ourpany? Do you dare provoke us? Are you blind? Look at yourself in the mirror! Who do you think you are?"


    Dong Xuebing smiled, giving them a thumbs-up. "Alright then. Don''t me meter."


    Dong Xuebing took out his phone, left the monitoring room, and called—not to Han Jing or Secretary Shen, but to Hui Lan''s second aunt, Ci Lifen! Half a year ago, Dong Xuebing might have had to put in some effort to punish them, but now he didn''t need to. A single phone call would suffice!
