The Stray Cat Was Raised By The Boss Chapter 12
byChapter 12 Chapter 12 Cat-Cat War
After more than an hour of searching, the staff finally found a crumpled account book from the bookcase.The ledger recorded various secret expenditures of Gu Sichen, as well as his personal dealings with major officials.
Gu Sichen: “This is not my thing.”
“We will investigate on our own,” the short-haired young man said seriously, “but now please come with us.”
Gu Sichen was unmoved and said, “If you send someone to check, you will know whether this list is true or false.”
The short-haired young man: “We will find out if there is a problem, but now we have received a report, and it is the obligation of every citizen to cooperate with the investigation.”
Gu Si Shen didn’t speak again. He dialed the phone to explain the situation, then turned on the speakerphone and put the phone on the table.
Cun Tou glanced at his phone in confusion, and a familiar voice came from the phone: “Which unit are you from?”
Cuntou rubbed his neck and asked: “Which unit are you from?”
“…” There was a strange silence over there.
The round-faced middle-aged man who had just smoothed things over squeezed forward and said hurriedly: “Secretary Meng, we are from xx and xx units… I received a report against Mr. Gu this morning, and a search warrant was approved, so I came here to investigate.”
Cuntou said directly: “We have found a list of suspected evidence and we need to take Gu Sichen back to investigate.”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and he said pleasantly: “Xiao Duan, right? I know that every company has its own working standards, but Mr. Gu is a CEO with a market value of over one trillion. You don’t have any evidence, so you just want to take people back to investigate casually. Isn’t it appropriate?”
“Every citizen has the obligation to cooperate with the investigation,” Duan Yi retorted, “If he is really fine, we will let him go within 24 hours.”
“But have you ever thought that Gu Sichen is the president of a listed company. Even if he only goes in and out of the police station, do you think those marketing accounts will let him go? The market value of Gumao Group exceeds one trillion, and even a 0.1% stock price fluctuation will cause huge losses. Let me ask you, if it is found that there is nothing wrong with him, who will pay for these losses?”
“…”
Duan Yi obviously didn’t expect this and stepped down silently.
“Xiao Duan, it’s a good thing that you are working hard. I’m not asking you to come back directly. You can continue to investigate what should be investigated. I will never interfere. But can the method be more flexible? Use your brain more and don’t be used as a weapon.”
Duan Yi’s expression changed again and again, and finally nodded: “I understand, Secretary Meng.”
The other person chuckled and said, “Mr. Gu, young people are full of enthusiasm and have no experience in doing things. Please bear more responsibility.”
Gu Sichen stroked Wuwu’s hair and said calmly: “You’re welcome, it is a citizen’s duty to cooperate with the police investigation.”
The phone was hung up and the office was eerily quiet for a moment.
After about a minute, Duan Yicai said again: “Although you invited Secretary Meng to be your lobbyist, we still need to investigate what should be investigated.”
Gu Sichen: “It just so happens that I also want to report the case. Let’s investigate together.”
Duan Yi frowned: “What is the specific situation?”
Gu Sichen: “My office was invaded last night, and you came here today and found the ledger.”
Duan Yi frowned and said nothing. Another question came from the security guard and safety manager on duty last night.
“It’s indeed true,” the security manager said. “There was a power outage in the president’s office yesterday afternoon. It was repaired but unexpectedly there was another power outage in the evening. The security system did not work for about 10 minutes.”
Duan Yi: “You mean someone came in and out during that period and put the ledger in the office?”
The security chief glanced at Gu Sichen and did not answer.
“What did you see him doing?” Duan Yi blocked his sight and said, “I’m asking you, tell the truth.”
Gu Sichen: “Listen to Officer Duan.”
The security director then said: “Due to circuit damage, only the president’s office lost power, and the surveillance cameras outside were still working. After the incident, we checked the surveillance cameras around the president’s office and found that no one came in or out during that time.”
After finishing speaking, the security chief bowed deeply to Gu Sichen and explained: “We didn’t find anything unusual at the time, so we didn’t report it in time. Please forgive me, Mr. Gu.”
Gu Sichen said nothing, Duan Yi frowned and asked, “Since no one comes in or out, how did you get this ledger?”
Gu Sichen: “Officer Duan might as well start with the whistleblower.”
This suggestion is in the right direction. If this is really the case, they can always find out.If it is really a frame-up, then the person who framed it must have an agenda, and the person who reported it will look very suspicious.
But even though they knew that Gu Sichen’s bribe was fake, someone still swore to report it, for what purpose?Could it be that they were betting that they would take Gu Sichen away for investigation and then manipulate public opinion to cause Gumao Group’s stock price to fluctuate?If it’s business competition, there may be a more obscure purpose.
Duan Yi said: “I can leave you alone, but until the matter is found out, you must stay in the company and undergo investigation.”
Gu Sichen: “I have something to do in the afternoon.”
Duan Yi: “Change the time.”
Gu Sichen glanced at Wu Wu, who was in poor spirits, and said, “You can’t change it.”
Duan Yi was about to have another attack, but was stopped by the round-faced man. I don’t know what they said, but Duan Yi didn’t insist anymore.
Some people left, and the remaining people found a conference room to work and began to investigate.
There was no surveillance in the president’s office, but the surveillance of the gate and security passage showed that during the ten minutes when security was offline, no one entered or exited the two entrances.Even if someone really framed him, it couldn’t appear out of thin air, right?
Duan Yi still doubted Gu Sichen, but the technical staff did an analysis and found that there were no fingerprints of Gu Sichen on the ledger, and the handwriting was not his.As for the officials involved on the list… they did not dare to investigate openly, but Duan Yi was not afraid. He went directly to ask the director he trusted, and as expected, he was severely punished.
“This is still a secret room case,” the colleague said, touching his chin, “It seems we have to summon Conan.”
“It’s useless even if Ke Bei comes!” Duan Yi threw the information on the table and said fiercely, “I don’t believe I can’t find it out.”
The key lies in this account book. If Gu Sichen was framed, then the origin of the account book would be clear.
Duan Yi asked the technicians to continue the investigation, and soon there was new news. The technicians said that there was a substance called “lysozyme” in the ledger.
“Lysozyme? What is this?”
“It is a substance that has sterilizing, disinfecting, and anti-infective effects. It is mainly found in the saliva, tears, urine, etc. of mammals.”
Duan Yi didn’t understand: “You mean someone bit this account book? Or cried or peed?”
“It’s not just humans,” the technician said, “it’s found in the ovaries of mammals, and it’s also found in egg whites.”
So it’s also possible that someone sprinkled egg white on it?It was all a mess. Duan Yi frowned and asked, “Have you found anything else?”
“I’ll check again.”
Duan Yi hung up the phone and speculated on various potential possibilities.
“Meow~!”
Suddenly, there was a furry feeling on his calf. Duan Yi lowered his head and saw that it was Gu Sichen’s kitten coming to find him.
No matter how irritable a person is, he cannot be angry with a kitten.Duan Yi wanted to reach out and touch it, but when he thought it was Gu Sichen’s cat, he held back and raised his hand to chase the cat away.
But the cat kept pestering him and meowing, which greatly affected his investigation!
Duan Yi waved his hand and said angrily: “Have someone come over and get this cat away!”
Gu Sichen: “Wuwu, come here.”
Wu Xue: “Meow meow meow!!!”
Wu Xue followed Gu Sichen back and used her little paws to pick up the tablet next to her.
“Want to watch a video?”
“Meow!”
Gu Sichen turned on the screen and found that the battery was out. He connected the charging cable to the tablet and played the cartoon he had not finished watching yesterday to Wuwu.
Wu Wu usually looked at him very seriously, but today he frequently deserted and even used his paws to pick at his arms.
Worried that Wu Wu was uncomfortable, Gu Sichen looked up from his work: “What’s wrong?”
“Meow meow!!”
The cat’s paw opened the photo album and called up a video.
Five minutes later, the investigation team appeared in Gu Sichen’s office, looking at the picture on the screen in disbelief.
The video was nearly eight hours long, with a long stretch of empty footage in the middle, until Gu Sichen dragged the progress bar to the last half hour and the night light suddenly went out.
Not long after, a Maine Coon cat climbed in through the window. It was wearing sunglasses and holding a notebook in its mouth, and walked into the office in a swaggering manner.What’s even stranger is that it seemed to look around the office, and finally bit out a book, stuffed the thing behind its back, and stuffed the book back in again.After all this was done, the cat climbed out of the window before security arrived.
After watching the video, everyone fell into an eerie silence.
After an unknown amount of time, Duan Yi finally regained his senses and couldn’t believe it: “So this cat brought the ledger in?”
Colleague: “It seems so.”
Duan Yi frowned so hard that he could pinch a mosquito to death: “How can a cat do such a thing?”
But he remembered the technician’s analysis, which said that there was lysozyme on the surface of the ledger. Mammals… cats are also mammals. It’s normal for cats to come in with the ledger in their mouths and drool on the ledger.
“If it’s true, then this cat is so awesome,” a colleague exclaimed as he played back the video over and over again. “It can climb up from such a high exterior wall and even wears sunglasses. It has a majestic look. Needless to say, it looks quite handsome.”
“Meow!” The cow cat slapped the table unconvinced.
He is also very powerful, okay!Sheriff Black Cat, catch the bad cat!
How can a kitten have such a vivid expression?The man understood the dissatisfaction of the little cow and praised it again: “Okay, okay, you are very cute too.”
Wu Xue was still unhappy and stared at people angrily.He’s not cute, he’s obviously handsome!!
Ouch, how could the little expression of the cow cat be so clever? The woman wanted to reach out and touch it, but as soon as she raised her hand, Gu Sichen had already hugged the cat back and warned in a low voice: “Wu Wu, be good.”
“Ah ha ha ha ha…” The woman raised her hand awkwardly and touched the non-existent hair beside her ear.
Gu Sichen said he was telling the cat to behave, but who didn’t know that he was warning people not to touch it randomly?Now I can see the possessiveness of the legendary domineering president.
Duan Yi is still investigating the mystery of the case.
Although this video appeared very timely, how could it be such a coincidence?The suspect…the suspect cat happened to be photographed by the tablet?
Duan Yi frowned and asked Gu Sichen: “Where did the video come from?”
Gu Sichen: “Yesterday I recorded the video and forgot to turn it off, so I happened to record it.”
The answer was reasonable, but Duan Yi always felt that something was wrong.
If someone really wanted to frame Gu Sichen and even cut off the company’s power supply, network, and surveillance cameras, but the video was taken by a tablet placed next to him?Is there such a coincidence?If it’s true, that’s really unlucky!
Moreover, it is very strange to let a cat transport the ledger, but the crime was recorded on a tablet.The whole thing is so abstract that it’s almost uncanny.
Duan Yi suspected that Gu Sichen was directing and acting, so he frowned and asked, “Why did you use a tablet to record office videos?”
Gu Sichen: “Record the cat.”
Duan Yi: “Isn’t it more convenient to use a mobile phone to record cats? And even if you really like to use a tablet to record cats, would you put the tablet on a shelf if the cat is running around?”
Gu Sichen glanced at the cat and suddenly fell silent.
Duan Yi felt that he had found a flaw and continued to ask: “Is there any other explanation?”
“Sorry, I didn’t tell the truth just now,” Gu Sichen said, “The video was not recorded by me, but by my cat.”
Duan Yi:???
“Cats can record videos?”
Gu Sichen: “A cat can put the ledger in the office to frame me.”
Duan Yi: “…”
Mao framed the blame, Mao recorded a video to fight back, and he was not playing the role of Black Cat Sheriff!How could such a bizarre thing happen!
