Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

Zhao Tiezhu couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this. He originally thought that he could escape, but now it seems that he was overthinking.

After Zhao Tiezhu left, Chen Feng, who was listening, spoke up.

"Section Chief, do you believe what Zhao Tiezhu said?"

He Yuzhu nodded.

"I believe this guy is telling the truth. So, the only suspect left is Ma Hongbing, but let's not look for him for now.

You go with me to the material workshop to learn about the crime scene first."

...................

He Yuzhu and Chen Feng then came to the material workshop and found Liu Yongbing, the workshop director in charge of the workshop.

"Hello, Director Liu. I'm He Yuzhu from the Security Department. I'm here to learn about the theft of steel. Could you please take me to where the stolen steel was lost? I want to take a closer look at the scene."

When Liu Yongbing heard what He Yuzhu said, he immediately agreed.

"No problem, Chief He, this way."

Led by Liu Yongbing, they arrived at the location where the stolen steel was piled.

"Here we are. This is where the steel is stored. Right here, there is a ton of steel missing."

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu immediately bent down to check the ground. Indeed, there were deep indentations, indicating that a heavy object had been placed there.

Then he began to observe the surrounding environment carefully.

He Yuzhu discovered that there were only three doors in the entire materials workshop, two large and one small. The large iron door on the right was basically rarely opened and was locked all year round.

As for the small door on the left, it is convenient for workers in the material workshop to come in and out. As for the big iron door, it is specifically used to transport raw materials and semi-finished products.

In other words, if this batch of stolen steel wanted to be transported out of the material workshop, the first thing to consider was the gate on the left. However, on weekdays, the workshop director Liu Yongbing would lock this gate as soon as the workers got off work.

Only he and two other deputy workshop directors have the key to this door.

He Yuzhu carefully observed the lock on the iron door. There were no marks from prying, no breakage, no signs of damage at all.

So where will this ton of steel go?

He Yuzhu connected the known clues together and began to think about the motive of this case.

As a time traveler, He Yuzhu has the thoughts of a modern person. After thinking about it from another person's perspective, he feels that there are very few things that happen for no reason in this world. Most of them have traces to follow and follow the so-called vested interest theorem. People generally won't do things that have no benefits.

At first he thought that it was the potential spy who did it, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was not right, because if it was really done by the spy, then the spy would be the stupidest person in the world.

The loss of this ton of steel will not have a very bad impact on the entire steel mill, nor will it damage the foundation, but the consequence of doing so will increase the security level of the entire steel mill and make everyone in the factory more vigilant, which will be extremely detrimental to the future work of the lurking spy.

This also means that the possibility of a spy committing the crime can be ruled out directly. The next thing to consider is to analyze who will be affected by the loss of steel.

According to common sense, the first person to be affected by the loss of this batch of steel is their security department, that is, him as the head of the security department, and the second is the workshop director Liu Yongbing who is responsible for managing the material workshop.

If we analyze it this way, the scope of suspicion for the suspect will be narrowed instantly.

In other words, the perpetrator must be someone inside the steel mill, and must be someone from the security department or the material workshop. Only among them would someone have the motive and conditions to commit the crime.

However, He Yuzhu thought about it and couldn't figure out who he had offended. Then he asked the workshop director Liu Yongbing,

"Director Liu, I would like to ask you, do you have any conflicts with anyone on weekdays? Or do you have a big conflict with anyone in your workshop?"

When Liu Yongbing heard He Yuzhu's question, he was completely confused. He fell into deep thought. After thinking carefully, he thought of someone.

"If you say so, Chief He, then I remember something.

Previously, because of trivial matters at work, I had an argument with Chen Xinmin, the deputy director of the workshop, and even had a fight. I don’t know if this counts as what you call a feud. "

When He Yuzhu heard Liu Yongbin's words, his eyes immediately lit up.

"Director Liu, please call Deputy Director Chen Xinmin over here. I have something to ask him."

Afterwards, the workshop director Liu Yongbin ordered a worker to find the deputy workshop director Chen Xinming.

After waiting for 5 minutes, a middle-aged, fat man slowly walked over. He was the deputy workshop director Chen Xinmin.

When he saw workshop director Liu Yongbing and security chief He Yuzhu standing together, he knew why they came.

His expression was a little unnatural, and his whole face was tense. Before He Yuzhu asked any questions, he spoke first.

"Director Liu, Chief He, what do you want to talk to me about?"

He Yuzhu didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"Director Chen, I don't mean anything special. I just want to ask you something. Where did you go last Friday night?"

When Chen Xinmin heard He Yuzhu's question, he answered without hesitation: "As for me, I have been at home all the time and have not done anything. My wife can testify for me."

When He Yuzhu heard what Chen Xinmin said, he knew that this guy had prepared a statement long ago. It was very likely that he gave the key to the door to the suspect, and this person was most likely the Ma brothers from their security department.

According to this analysis, the whole case becomes clearer. That is, Deputy Director Chen Xinming and Ma Hongbing from the Security Department colluded with each other to do this. Only in this way can this matter be well explained, but the key is where did the lost steel go?

You know, finding the stolen steel is the key to solving this problem. After thinking about it, He Yuzhu had a big guess in his heart. He thought of an old story about "darkness under the lamp".

Is it possible that these steel materials never left the material workshop from the beginning, but were used to deceive everyone?

As for why He Yuzhu thought so, it was because once the higher-ups knew about this matter, he, as the security chief, would be the first to be punished, followed by Liu Yongbing, the director of the materials workshop. After the two of them were punished, the original positions would be vacant.

If the criminal suspect can find the lost steel by then, he will have made a great contribution in disguise and can then take our place.
