A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 208

The next morning.

At the Beijing headquarters of Nadutong Express Company, an emergency meeting of the company's senior directors was held.

In the conference room, almost all the company's top executives were sitting at the conference table, including the heads of the major regions who were still at the headquarters.

After everyone gathered together, a man with square glasses, a beard, and black and white hair stood up and looked at Chairman Zhao Fangxu who was at the top.

"Director Zhao, everyone is here, so just speak up if you have anything to say!"

As soon as these words came out, other people at the conference table also spoke.

"Yeah! I was about to get on the plane, and I was dragged back by your old man..."

"My car was on the highway, so I just turned around and ran back..."

"Who says it's not? As soon as I came back, I ran over to the meeting without taking a sip of water!"

Many slightly complaining voices sounded, and Xu Si, Ren Fei and other regional leaders wanted to laugh, but these directors were their superiors after all, so they had no choice but to keep their mouths shut.

"Everyone..."

Zhao Fangxu stood up from his seat. He is a kind-faced, fat old man. Although his strength is not very good, he has been the chairman of the company for so many years, and his aura is quite oppressive.

As soon as he stood up, no one in the conference room spoke, and everyone's eyes were on him.

Zhao Fangxu's eyes swept over the people around the conference table one by one, with a serious expression on his face.

"I invite you back today because I want to discuss how to deal with Chen Duo and Lin Yi."

As soon as these words came out, it was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, and many directors spoke in surprise.

"Didn't the solution be discussed yesterday?"

"Could it be that Lin Yi is not satisfied with our solution?"

"What is he dissatisfied with? The company is willing to lower its stance and offer a negotiating attitude, which is already giving him and Tianshi Mansion great face!"

"Cough cough!"

Zhao Fangxu coughed twice, and only after everyone's attention returned to him did he speak in a deep voice.

"They didn't receive the news... because of yesterday's solution, I suppressed it."

Hearing this sentence, all the directors were in an uproar. Even Bi Youlong, who was disdainful to complain before, frowned. Only Xu Si and other regional leaders were calm, obviously they knew the news long ago.

Everyone looked at each other sensiblely, and then they all looked at Zhao Fangxu.

Without the resolution of the board of directors, he privately suppressed the resolution plan approved by the company's high-level meeting. Even Zhao Fangxu, the chairman, had to give everyone an explanation.

After working together for so many years, they all knew what kind of person Zhao Fangxu was, so they were all waiting for him to explain.

Zhao Fangxu didn't talk nonsense, and directly turned on the big screen in the meeting room.

The screen flashed, and a clear photo appeared there, which was exactly the condition of the convoy that was attacked and killed last night.

Zhao Fangxu's faint voice sounded immediately.

"This is the convoy escorting Ma Xianhong. Just last night, a group of unknown forces attacked and killed them and took Ma Xianhong away. Afterwards, they planned to silence all our front-line colleagues. The method was extremely cruel..."

As he said that, the pictures on the big screen switched again, this time there were two photos, one left and one right.

In the photo on the left is a company employee with only half of his body left, hanging for his life in the emergency cabin, and on the right is a big man with an inch head who is bound all over but still has cold eyes.

"The colleague on the left is Zhang Hao, who was also the only survivor of the convoy last night, and the murderer on the right was captured alive by Lin Yi... To be honest, if Zhang Chulan and Lin Yi hadn't arrived in time, you would never have seen it again. Here comes the picture."

Zhao Fangxu said lightly, and everyone in the conference room frowned tightly.

"TMD!"

Bi Youlong slammed the table heavily, and looked at Zhao Fangxu with gritted teeth.

He was promoted from the front line, so he has always been actively concerned about and has great affection for his front-line colleagues. For him, there is nothing more infuriating than seeing such a situation.

"Zhao Dong, did you ask something?"

"Not yet." Zhao Fangxu shook his head, "Don't worry, the talent has just been sent back, and there will be plenty of time to process it later."

"..." Bi Youlong gradually calmed down, "I want to interrogate him personally."

"no problem."

Zhao Fangxu nodded, then narrowed his fat eyes and looked at the people in the meeting room.

"Everyone, Ma Xianhong's escort route is top secret even within the company. How did this group of people get this news? I believe everyone has a good idea..."

"What else could be going on, there is a ghost inside!"

Bi Youlong folded his hands on his chest, sneered, and glanced casually from the meeting room.

"Maybe it's in this conference room!"

Wearing square-rimmed glasses, a man in his 50s frowned.

"Bi Dong, what are you talking about, we are not the only ones who know the escort route..."

"Why, Mr. Huang, do you still want to blame those colleagues on the front line? Go and find out by yourself. Calculate the time. They should go shopping with Chen Duo now! Oh yes, Er Zhuang is also here..."

"..."

Hearing Bi Youlong's eccentric words, the corners of Huang Dong's mouth twitched and he didn't speak.

"There's no need to argue." Zhao Fangxu glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice, "After this incident, all of us will have to sit on the bench, including me, do you have any opinions?"

"I agree!"

"Seconded!"

Everyone raised their hands in agreement, which was also expected by everyone.

Zhao Fangxu nodded, then changed the subject and spoke again.

"However, this matter is not the reason for me to call you for an emergency meeting, nor is it the reason for me to suppress Chen Duo's solution——Next, please take a look at the photos below."

The big screen flashed again. This time, it was a collapsed earth mountain. From the screen, half of the top of the mountain had been cut off, and countless rubble were scattered at the foot of the mountain, blocking the entire mountain road.

what is this?
Landslide?
Just when everyone was confused, Zhao Fangxu said.

"This is a dirt mountain [-] kilometers away from the convoy. According to Zhang Chulan, an employee in the North China District, after Lin Yi caught the murderer who stayed behind to silence him last night, he followed some clues and chased him until he was [-]. This dirt hill kilometers away."

"When Lin Yi chased to Tushan, it caused a huge geological disaster, blocked the mountain road ahead, and even killed several of them."

Having said that, Zhao Fangxu's tone paused, and he looked at the people in the meeting room. Seeing that many people were frowning, he randomly chose one of them and spoke.

"Xiao Fei, do you think there is any problem?"

Hearing her name, Ren Fei, the person in charge of the Central China District, nodded and said with a frown.

"I think the problem is very big. It's not that I haven't seen the blasting of the mountain, but the dirt mountain in the picture doesn't look like the one after the fixed-point blasting, it's more like... more like..."

"It's more like being cut off half of the mountain with a sword, right?"

Zhao Fangxu said lightly what Ren Fei hesitated to say.

"Hey...that's a bit like that!"

Everyone looked at the earth mountain in the photo with some surprise, but no matter who they were, they thought it was just Zhao Fangxu's metaphor, and no one thought that the mountain was really cut off.

Only Xu Si and Ren Fei looked strange.

Xu Si thought of the old master's introduction to Lin Yi, while Ren Fei simply felt that Uncle Zhao's reaction was not right.

Sure enough, Zhao Fangxu spoke solemnly.

"Everyone, there is one thing I need to mention. The person who chased the murderer last night was Lin Yi, and the person who said that the other party used the explosion to cause the landslide was also Lin Yi. He informed the company through Zhang Chulan and asked the company to send a convoy to dig up the dead body. It's still Lin Yi...all the remarks I just said are basically Lin Yi's unilateral remarks."

As Zhao Fangxu's voice fell, the atmosphere in the conference room gradually became uncomfortable.

"Dong Zhao... You mean to say that this mountain was cut open by that Guigu Lin Yi?" Bi Youlong frowned, his eyes full of absurdity.

Zhao Fangxu glanced around and said lightly.

"I know this sounds absurd, but this is indeed the only explanation after excluding all options... After receiving the news from Zhang Chulan, the company urgently called all the nearby excavators to dig out the buried land. In just over half an hour, the convoy found a crushed off-road vehicle and a corpse inside."

"Although this corpse is no longer human-shaped, the frontline personnel still keenly discovered that this person was actually buried by the landslide after his death. The penetrating wound on his chest was the culprit who killed him! Not only that, The company found a stone chamber in the collapsed mountain, and there was also a corpse whose head was pierced by a sword..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Fangxu said firmly.

"Therefore, I dare to conclude that Lin Yi must have lied! He has at least met the other party, even entered the stone room, and shot and killed the man inside."

The directors nodded and agreed with Zhao Fangxu's point of view.

"After I concluded that Lin Yi was lying, I contacted a sword qi master nearby and asked him to observe the broken marks left by the landslide. This master has always had a good relationship with the company, so I rushed towards the earth mountain in the middle of the night Yes, but he didn't message me back until this morning..."

"Do you know what he told me? He told me that he was [-]% sure that this was definitely the handiwork of a peerless sword fairy. He even told me with certainty that there must be a sword fairy who has already become a feather. .”

Zhao Fangxu said in a low tone, with a hint of emotion on his fat face.

"I've known him for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen him show such a pious expression..."

"..."

Everyone looked at each other when they heard the words, Huang Dong frowned and said.

"This is just the master's one-sided statement. Is there any other evidence?"

Zhao Fangxu didn't speak, but reached out and took out two stones from his pocket, and put them on the table.

It is said to be two stones, but it should actually be a stone that has been cut in half.

When everyone was passing and looking at the two stones, Zhao Fangxu spoke again.

"This is the stone found on the found mountain. There are more on the convoy's side. There are even half stones with smooth cut surfaces embedded in the stone wall on the oblique surface above the mountain..."

Zhao Fangxu glanced over the crowd and asked indifferently.

"Now tell me, is there any geological disaster that can cut a stone into such a smooth section?"

"..."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

They actually thought that what Zhao Fangxu said was quite reasonable. This... is too ridiculous, right?
"Where's that sword qi master?"

Bi Youlong couldn't help asking.

"Stayed there." Zhao Fangxu shook his head, "He dug another stone chamber on that earthen mountain, saying that he wanted to observe the sword marks up close and protect it from being destroyed by the way, but based on what I know about him, His greatest purpose should be to show his piety to this peerless sword fairy who has 'descended to earth'."

"..."

Everyone was silent again.

Bi Youlong wanted to laugh, but he couldn't, Zhao Fangxu then said.

"Since Lin Yi was born, there have been quite a few people in the company who have contacted him. Apart from his talent, there is another point in everyone's evaluation of him, that is, he is smart... If he wants to cover up this matter, I believe he must It can be done seamlessly, there is no need to make up such a bunch of poor excuses."

"Combined with his slightly deliberate actions last night, I suspect in my eyes that his purpose is not just to tell us the news behind it tactfully, but also intends to take this opportunity to give the company a bad name."

The voice fell, and there was silence in the conference room.

After a long time, Zhao Fangxu broke the silence again.

"You don't need to be alarmed. No matter how much you say, it's just our imagination. Maybe it's really the murderer who did it with special means?" Zhao Fangxu comforted.

... This is not as good as what Lin Yi did!

Many people secretly rolled their eyes, at least Lin Yi's position is beneficial to the company.

Bi Youlong shook his head: "Compared to the murderer's power, I still lean towards Lin Yi's side. Even if it's not his own strength, it may be his elders, or some inherited sword energy..."

"I don't mention other things. He saved his colleagues on the front line and gave clues to the mastermind behind the scenes. This is his kindness... Regarding Chen Duo's matter, I am willing to take a step back."

After Bi Youlong spoke, other people also expressed their attitudes.

"If he can guarantee that Chen Duo will not threaten the safety of the masses, then I will second!"

"me too."

"Seconded."

No matter whether this guess is true or false, it is always right to stabilize Lin Yi first.

Zhao Fangxu nodded and glanced at everyone.

"In this case, let's end the meeting today...Xiao Fei, Xiao Si, please stay here for a while."

……

……

That afternoon.

On a certain bustling street in the city, several unusual passers-by ushered in.

The rush of people and traffic, in this bustling street, Chen Duo was a little dazed for a while.

This is different from when she was in the company before. At that time, she knew that the road she walked was planned and her actions were monitored by the company, so she was not interested in the surrounding scenery.

But now, she is free, and everything in front of her has become an option that she can choose arbitrarily.

Looking at Chen Duo, who looked left and right at the front, with bright eyes, Lao Meng couldn't help wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, feeling really happy for her.

At this moment, Hei Guan'er put his hand on Lao Meng's shoulder suddenly.

Not only him, but Xiao Zizai and Wang Zhenqiu also approached.

Hei Guan'er said in a low voice: "Lin Yi just contacted me, and he will come right away."

"So fast?" Lao Meng's heart tightened.

Wang Zhenqiu also frowned: "Are we really going to let him take Chen Duo away?"

"should be."

Clarinet sighed and said in a low voice.

"I've already asked the company. Originally, the company's attitude was relatively tough, but this morning, my person in charge specially called me. The company... seems to have changed its tone and admitted the matter."

"Changed so quickly?"

Wang Zhenqiu and Lao Meng immediately looked at each other when they heard this.

"This is not like a company!"

　I went out to drink with my buddies this afternoon, and almost forgot to update. I guess I might not even be able to find the keyboard after drinking, let alone the code words. This may be the only update today. Sorry, I will update two chapters tomorrow, at least 8000 words.
