Chapter 127 - A Meritorious Deed?
Chapter 127: A Meritorious Deed?
Geng Huo’s expression darkened, and then he looked at the surrounding employees. They immediately nodded.
“Nonsense!” he shouted. He took a few steps towards Xu Ling and whispered, “What happened here?”
Xu Ling hurriedly explained the situation in detail.
Geng Huo came to a realization, and his expression eased up a lot. “I see. In that case, they deserved to die. Don’t worry, leave this to your Uncle Geng. As long as we can find evidence that Minister Wang and Supervisor Zeng took the medicinal herbs from your classmate’s parents, it won’t matter even if you did kill them.”
“Thank you, Uncle Geng!” Xu Ling said gratefully.
“Don’t be so rash in the future,” Geng Huo said as he took out his phone and called Xu Zhenguo to tell him what had happened.
On the other end of the line, Xu Zhenguo said indifferently, “Old Geng, just do what you’re supposed to do. You definitely can’t embezzle resources like this. Moreover, I heard that this batch of medicinal herbs was obtained by a student that went to the wilderness!”
When Geng Huo heard this, he immediately said angrily, “What? Wang and Zeng are really detestable. The beast wave attack almost wiped out our Huadong City and the students had to risk their lives to enter the wilderness. It was so difficult for them to find cultivation resources, but they actually embezzled the resources!!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll handle this matter impartially!”
Xu Zhenguo nodded and reminded, “Old Geng, you have to pay attention. Also, it’s best to inform Commander Zhao. After all, the beast wave attack was resolved by Senior Zhou. Strictly speaking, the resources in the wilderness area belong to Senior Zhou!”
Geng Huo immediately understood the seriousness of the matter and said seriously, “Got it!”
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the surrounding employees and coldly explained the seriousness of the matter.
“It’s not enough for Minister Wang and Supervisor Zeng to die. Everyone, it’s best if you don’t hide the incriminating evidence and tell the truth. Otherwise, you will also be in trouble!”
Upon hearing this, several employees were shocked and hurriedly said, “Director Geng, I can tell you what happened!”
“I can too.”
“Minister Wang even gave Supervisor Zeng a million yuan. I know where the transfer record is!”
When Xu Ling heard this, she smiled and turned around. She looked at Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun and whispered, “Uncle, auntie, it’s fine now!”
Zhou Xueguo was still in disbelief. “Are you sure?”
Xu Ling nodded. “Uncle, Auntie, the medicinal herbs that Minister Wang and Supervisor Zeng embezzled were obtained from the wilderness area. All the resources in the wilderness area should actually belong to Senior Zhou, who resolved the beast wave attack. Therefore, Supervisor Wang and Supervisor Zeng actually embezzled Senior Zhou’s things. Such a crime is very serious. It’s even possible for them to receive a more severe punishment than death.”
“Therefore, killing them is not only not a sin, but also a meritorious deed!”
Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun were instantly dumbfounded.
They didn’t know that this matter could be resolved so easily.
It was just as Xu Ling had said.
After Geng Huo informed the Bureau about what happened at the Jing Pharmaceutical Company, the Bureau immediately assigned great importance to it. Even the city leader was alarmed.
In just half an hour, the city leader, Bureau leader, and the others rushed to the Jing Pharmaceutical Company.
Soon, a large number of leaders and cadres crowded the seventh floor corridor.
The city leader’s forehead was covered in sweat. Clearly, he had been in a hurry the entire time. He walked in front of Geng Huo and praised, “Old Geng, you’re still the most reliable. You didn’t inform Commander Zhao first. If Commander Zhao finds out that you didn’t handle the matter properly, not only will your Bureau be reprimanded, but our city will also be reprimanded!”
“Embezzling the resources obtained from the wilderness area is a huge matter. Commander Zhao has repeatedly emphasized at the city meeting that we absolutely cannot tolerate any martial artist, company, or faction embezzling the resources obtained from the wilderness area after the beast wave attack!”
The Bureau leader also nodded hurriedly. “I didn’t expect something like this to happen at Jing Pharmaceutical Company!”
The city leader asked, “How’s the victim’s family?”
“They’re fine. They’re just a little emotionally unstable!” Geng Huo hurriedly said.
Hearing this, the Bureau leader and the city leader hurriedly walked into the office. Minister Wang and Supervisor Zeng’s corpses had also been carried out long ago.
Because the matter had not been resolved yet, Wang Shuyun, Zhou Xueguo, and the others were all sitting on the sofa.
“Ah, City Leader….” Seeing the important figures that often appeared on the television, Wang Shuyun and Zhou Xueguo were shocked and hurriedly stood up.
The city leader took a step forward, held Zhou Xueguo’s hand, and said amiably, “I’m sorry for making the two of you suffer. I didn’t expect that Jing Pharmaceutical Company would do such a heartless thing. It’s my fault for not doing my job well. Don’t worry, I have already ordered the Bureau to handle this matter impartially. I will definitely handle this in a way that satisfies the both of you!”
The Bureau leader walked forward and immediately said, “Don’t worry, I’m the head of the Bureau. If there’s anything you need, just tell me.”
Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun were at a loss.
Xu Ling stood up. “You are too kind, leaders. The Jing Family Pharmaceutical Company has been established for so many years so it’s natural for there to be some parasites like Minister Wang and Supervisor Zeng lurking around. Fortunately, we found out about it early this time, but this is probably not the first time they did something like this. Therefore, I hope that you two leaders can investigate the Jing Family Pharmaceutical Company strictly and give the employees justice!”
