Chapter 447: Work Mistake
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Although the management of receiving letters in this era was not strict enough, impersonating someone else to collect their mail was severely punished.
An ordinary person wouldn’t have the guts to take someone else’s letter.
Sun Yunyun had taken Su Wen’s letter for the first time, firstly because Su Wen had promptly taken it back from her, and secondly, because she had just transmigrated and didn’t fully understand the situation, so the matter had been left unresolved.
Now, Su Wen had no intention of letting Sun Yunyun off so easily.
She had to get to the bottom of it.
“We’ve found it. This is the signature of the person who collected the registered letter at that time.” The post office staff with the red armband finally found the information. After checking Su Wen’s identity card, he confirmed her identity and said, “Come and write your name for me to see.”
“Okay.” Su Wen immediately wrote her name in the blank space. The completely different handwriting was obvious at a glance.
The expressions of the post office staff changed. Strictly speaking, this was also a mistake on their part.
“Wait a minute, I’ll go find the postman who was responsible for delivering the letter at that time.”
The staff of the post office were all full-time employees. Many of them had worked for decades, and there were quite a few cases where their sons took over after retirement. It was easy to find out the details. About half an hour later, a staff member with a red armband led a young man in.
“Take a look, can you recognize her? There have been about six registered letters for Su Wen this month. Was she the one who came to collect the letters?”
The young man immediately shook his head. “No, it’s definitely not her. What happened, Department Director What’s wrong”‘
“She’s Su Wen.”
Department Director Wu with the red armband of the post office glared at the young man and scolded, “Look at what you’ve done. Why didn’t you deliver it to her address? Did you hand it over personally? The registered letters can be collected by someone impersonating the recipient, and six times a month at that. Our post office’s reputation is completely ruined. Everyone would fail the year-end assessment.”
If word got out, he would definitely be criticized by the higher-ups.
The young man was dumbfounded. His expression was so dull that he was about to cry. His eyes were red. “I… I didn’t expect it either! She came directly to the post office to find me and said that she was Su Wen and had some letters to collect. She happened to pass by and came to pick it up.”
The young man immediately cried. He was nervous and afraid.
He had taken over his father’s position after retirement and had been an official employee for less than six months. Making such a significant mistake so soon could cost him his job, and he was in deep trouble.
“Sob sob sob… I didn’t expect someone to be so audacious. She seemed like such a friendly young girl. Sob… Department Director Wu, please don’t fire me. I’ll be careful in the future.”
Department Director Wu scolded in frustration, “Why are you crying? Crying won’t solve anything. The most important thing now was to find the person and retrieve the letter.”
“I-I-I…l’m scared. I don’t want to be fired.”
“If you don’t want to be fired, then go beg her. What’s the use of you telling me?” Department Director Wu was still having a headache!
Su Wen was also dumbfounded. She couldn’t sit still anymore. Just as she was about to get up, the young man who was crying uncontrollably pulled her back.
“Sister, please don’t file a complaint against me…”
Su Wen was speechless. Then she said, “Alright, stop crying. Hurry up. I know who took my letter. Just arrange for someone to follow me and help me get the letter back.”
Her purpose was not to file a complaint but to get back the letter sent by the publishing house..
