From Pokfulam to Central

The case of Wanjia Real Estate is about to start, and there is not much time left for Zhou Mi, Qu Zhi decided to act as soon as possible, so the next night, he stayed on duty and stayed in the entire office, only himself and Li Yan were left.

When it was nearly midnight, the lights in Li Yan's room finally went out, followed by the sound of him pulling out a key to lock the door.Qu Zhi turned off the news page about Wanjia Real Estate that he was browsing on the computer screen, and then opened a document casually to pretend to be working, and then heard the concern from the leader: "Aren't you off work yet?"

Qu Zhi put on a wry smile, "Today's work is almost unfinished."

"Is that so?" Li Yan didn't seem to believe it, "I remember that you don't have a case in hand, and the daily administrative work is so exhausting. With you like this, it seems that my boss is oppressing the employees."

"No, no," Qu Zhi quickly denied, scratching his head in embarrassment and said, "I was delayed by some private matters during the day, so I wanted to work overtime at night to make up for it. After all, I still have things to do tomorrow."

Li Yan retracted his scrutiny, "Okay, you can manage the work arrangements yourself, but don't stay up too late, anyway, you don't have any important things in your hands, so there is no need for it."

It was a bit uncomfortable for Qu Zhi to say this, and he regarded it as caring, but also had a derogatory connotation, defined as belittling, and seemed to be ungrateful, so in the end he had no choice but to say politely, "Thank you, leader."

Not long after Li Yan left, Qu Zhi also got up to pack his things and leave, but he didn't really go far, just to leave a evidence in the surveillance that he had already left work.More than half an hour later, a figure dressed in black and wearing a black hat appeared in the office building, and opened the door of Li Yan's office with the key that he had recreated earlier.

Even though the institute was empty, Qu Zhi still chose to act in the dark, as if this was the only way that would be more in line with the current atmosphere.Pressing the start button of the main computer, the string of passwords that Qu Zhimo had memorized several times flowed out from his fingertips naturally, and then, on the blindingly bright screen in the dark, the appearance of the desktop appeared smoothly.

Li Yan works in a clear and orderly manner, and also organizes the computer in an orderly manner. The C disk is full of installed software, the D disk is the files related to the law firm, and the E disk and F disk are the case files of the plaintiff and defendant represented by him respectively.

Qu Zhi understood Li Yan's logic of organizing files at a glance. Double-click the icon on the E drive to enter. The files of each case in the folder are sorted by the time of filing the case, and the naming method is "XX plaintiff VS.XX defendant".Slide the mouse wheel to scroll down the page, and Qu Zhi quickly found the folder with the word "Wanjia Real Estate" in its name.

Inserting the USB flash drive prepared in advance into the computer, Qu Zhi planned to copy all the files together, and carefully screen the useful content after leaving the place of trouble.The folder is very large. According to the pop-up window that pops up on the screen, the estimated copying time will take 6 minutes and 45 seconds.Taking advantage of this gap, Qu Zhi took down the previously hidden camera, and then stared at the progress bar in the window to see it slowly moving forward, second by second, gradually fascinated.

Qu Zhi saw that abyss again, and this time, he was even closer.

The mist that once covered the entire bottom of the cliff has gradually dissipated. It turns out that under this empty cliff is a pool of black water with dark tides and turbulent waves. Below the surface of the water, the depth is bottomless.A wind blew up from the edge of the cliff for no reason, the force was not strong but it was terribly cold, making people feel that the cold air seemed to be conscious, determined to drill into the flesh and blood of the person.

Qu Zhi shivered violently.

In the next second, the water in the abyss was stirred crazily by something, and the water splashed by the turbulent waves suddenly rose into the air, and then spread out like ink stains, forming a row of characters from right to left.However, they are not Chinese characters in the true sense, but more like radicals that have been split and scrambled, and the edges of each character are gradually blurred under the disturbance of the airflow, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish.

Qu Zhi had a strange feeling in his heart, as if what was written in this text was his life, or a verdict. He wanted to see it more clearly, so he couldn't help but leaned forward, completely forgetting that he was Standing near the abyss.

At this critical moment, the ink blot floating in the air dissipated.

Qu Zhi was taken aback for a moment, only to feel that there was a sudden force pulling himself back to reality. He was startled, and his eyes refocused on the computer screen. The progress bar in the pop-up window showed that the copying task was still 30 seconds away.

Qu Zhi silently breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly heard a voice from the direction of the door: "What are you doing?"

Qu Zhi suddenly looked towards the door, only to see that Li Yan was standing there coldly, with no expression on his face.

20 seconds left.

"Li Lu——," Qu Zhi didn't expect that Li Yan would turn back late at night, and he didn't expect that he would be so engrossed at such a time that he didn't notice the movement around him. He suppressed the panic in his heart and quickly typed The belly manuscript said: "Oh, what, I saw your computer screen was still on when I was about to get off work, so I wanted to turn it off."

Li Yan turned his head and glanced at the unscathed door lock behind him, and when he turned his head back again, there was a bit of undisguised mischief in his eyes, and he asked suspiciously: "Really?"

ten seconds.

Although the mental tension was unavoidable, but seeing that success was in sight, Qu Zhi would never be reconciled to such a failure.Quietly looking at the position of the USB drive socket, Qu Zhi felt that as long as he was brave enough and moved small enough, he could unplug the USB drive without anyone noticing.As for Li Yan, as long as he stands still in his current position, it is almost impossible to see any of his operations below the table from that angle.

Three, two, one.

"Yes, leader," Qu Zhi steadied his slightly trembling voice, and at the same time secretly stretched out his right hand, gently hooked his index finger to put the USB flash drive in his palm, and forced a smirk when he got up: "Otherwise, what else could it be? "

Li Yan narrowed his pitch-black eyes, and glanced at the back panel of the display screen, only to see white light continuously overflowing from the edge of the rectangular outline.After closing the door behind his back, Li Yan strolled to sit opposite Qu Zhi and sat down. He raised his eyelids tiredly and ordered in a low voice, "Sit."

Qu Zhi didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, so he had to take a step to look at it, so he sat back in the seat that belonged to Li Yan, and the USB flash drive in his hand was covered with a thin layer of sweat.

Li Yan reached out to take the water glass on the table, opened the lid and took a look, and found no water, so he put it back intact, and then said unhurriedly: "I remember, you have already returned the office door key to me, you How did you get in?"

Although he knew that the lame excuse just now would not be able to evade Li Yan, but when he heard him start asking himself, Qu Zhi's heart couldn't help but raised his throat. After all, he still couldn't give an answer to this new question. For a convincing explanation, he had to bite his tongue and say: "The door is open, maybe I forgot to lock it."

Li Yan raised his eyebrows noncommittally, "Alright, since you don't intend to tell the truth, let me change the question."

After finishing speaking, Li Yan stretched out his hand and pointed to a place behind Qu Zhi, and continued: "There used to be a pinhole camera there. It was still there when I got off work, but it is gone now. Could it be that you took it down?"

Hearing this, Qu Zhi broke out in a cold sweat. He suddenly realized that Li Yan had already noticed his little trick, but he didn't let it go easily.

Seeing Qu Zhi's speechless expression, Li Yan suddenly felt a little funny, "You don't think you've done a perfect job, do you? Don't you think it's suspicious that you chose to come back and ask to participate in this case?" Such a proud person is willing to do such a small job. It is definitely not as simple as keeping his job. I just didn't expect the world to be so small. The person you were next to was the person in charge of Wanjia Real Estate. Tell me, he What conditions were given to you so that you would risk losing your job to do such a shameful job for him?"

Li Yan is so cunning, he accurately connected Qu Zhi's abnormality with Zhou Mi, Qu Zhi was secretly shocked, but he still kept his eyes open, and did not rule out the possibility that the other party was just deceiving him by speculation, so he pretended to be stupid and denied: "I don't understand what you're talking about, and I don't know what Wanjia Real Estate is. I haven't been instructed by anyone about what happened today."

Li Yan was first surprised by Qu Zhi's tight-lipped mouth, then jealous of his deep affection for others, and finally sneered uncontrollably, shook his head and said: "Qu Zhi, Qu Zhi, you can't protect yourself now, in your heart You are still thinking about how to protect that thing, Zhou Mi? It’s a shame that I always regarded you as a smart person, but now it seems that you are nothing more than a fool who was used as a gun. Come on, you can see for yourself , die and die to understand."

Looking at Li Yan's cell phone on the table, Qu Zhi suddenly had a bad feeling. He didn't want to see what was in it at all, but he knew that running away would not solve any problems.Picking up the phone and fiddling with the touch screen for a long time, and finally successfully unlocking it, a program running in the foreground appeared on the screen. The interface displayed seemed to be a computer desktop and a video screen. There were two lines of words on the top of the screen ——

"Split screen real-time synchronization"

"Front camera is on"

Qu Zhi's heart sank suddenly, and he subconsciously looked at Li Yan's computer, only to see that the desktop displayed on the screen was exactly the same as that on the phone, and the work indicator light next to the camera above was glowing faintly green!

Li Yan silently watched the expression changes on Qu Zhi's face, and locked his prey with the eyes of a beast, and he couldn't let him go. Then he saw a thin layer of cold sweat visibly oozing from his forehead, and his eyes began to dodge intentionally or unintentionally. There was no blood on his pale face, and his chest was slightly heaving, trembling that was probably suppressed with all his strength.

"Qu Zhi." Li Yan stood up, propped his hands on the table, leaned forward and said, "Tell me, if this evidence is handed over to the Lawyers Association, can you continue to work as a lawyer? Or, just hand it over to the police and let them check all your dealings with Wanjia Real Estate to see what made you willing to bet your entire career?"
