158: Documents stuffed into hand

Liang Yuzhu led a group of Police Officers out of the car and headed to the pharmaceutical factory for investigation.

At this time, the employees of Kangrong Pharmaceutical were still carrying goods into the factory building in boxes.

As Liang Yuzhu and her group approached, the pharmaceutical factory employees who were moving goods looked over at the sound.

When they saw several Police Officers outside the factory building, their movements stiffened, and they all froze in place.

"Police, we're here to investigate some matters. We hope you will cooperate."

Liang Yuzhu showed her identification, and the surrounding employees also nodded blankly.

At the same time, two Police Officers stepped forward, opened a cardboard box, and saw what was inside.

"Liang Team... come over and look."

Liang Yuzhu stepped forward and glanced into the box.

Her eyes also narrowed, looking somewhat puzzled.

Inside the box were piles of ointment.

The white tubes looked a bit familiar, and Liang Yuzhu suddenly recalled.

This was identical to the special medicine she had seen in the pharmacy before!

The only difference was that this ointment now lacked the outer packaging box.

Seeing this scene, Liang Yuzhu also looked around, surveying the slightly dilapidated factory building.

"These are already finished products, right?" a nearby Police Officer murmured.

"But according to the address on the medicine box, isn't the factory producing the special medicine located here?"

"Why are finished products being delivered by truck?"

Amidst the discussion of the surrounding Police Officers, Liang Yuzhu already had a theory.

"It seems this is not the real production site. Kangrong Pharmaceutical is just a cover."

"They are using this shell, but the actual manufacturer is someone else."

After Liang Yuzhu finished speaking, her eyes narrowed as she looked at the employees and said:

"Where did these medicines come from? What do you all know?"

One of the employees answered, "Officer, these medicines were sent down from the top."

"Our pharmaceutical factory's business has not been very good, and not long ago, we were acquired by a pharmaceutical company."

"These finished medicines were sent by the company above; we are just responsible for packaging and distribution."

"As for anything else, we don't know," the employees replied, somewhat fearful.

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuzhu understood the whole situation.

It seemed Kangrong Pharmaceutical was just a protective shell.

And the company that truly developed the special medicine, if they had nothing to hide, why bother with such an extra step?

"Which company acquired you?" Liang Yuzhu asked.

"I didn't quite remember, it seemed to be called Norman Pharmaceuticals..."

"Norman Pharmaceuticals?" Liang Yuzhu murmured.

This name appeared in her sight for the first time.

...

"Yuan, we saw a blue truck at the Norman Pharmaceuticals factory, loaded with a truckload of goods leaving the factory."

"We chased it all the way and found that the truck didn't go directly back to the City but headed towards the western suburbs. There must be something fishy here."

Old Sha sent a message to Yuan.

Su Yue looked at the message sent by the other party and checked the situation in the western suburbs on the map.

When he saw Kangrong Pharmaceutical factory located in the western suburbs, Su Yue understood the reason, and it was not unexpected.

At this critical juncture, a sudden manufacturer producing special medicine would certainly arouse suspicion.

Norman Pharmaceuticals likely put on a disguise for safety reasons.

And their doing this was only a temporary measure to confuse people.

Even if Police traced the source of the medicine and went to investigate, they wouldn't find any valuable clues.

Su Yue had read the information in that archive bag.

Norman Pharmaceuticals had already completed all the procedures beforehand and had not revealed any flaws.

As for the 'BDS infectious skin disease' they had previously researched, there was currently no information proving it was related to them.

"I know," Su Yue replied with a message.

Compared to others who were investigating Kangrong Pharmaceutical and the whereabouts of the truck.

Su Yue had already grasped the key point of suspicion and was well aware of the various deceptions Norman Pharmaceuticals was employing.

However, Old Sha's tracking did earn Su Yue some praise.

He hadn't misjudged him; pulling Old Sha into the organization to become an agent was indeed a wise move.

He acted quite decisively and made sound judgments.

He knew that continuing to watch the pharmaceutical factory wouldn't yield any valuable clues,

Choosing to track the truck that drove out of the factory could still obtain some information.

Although the direction they were investigating was irrelevant to Norman Pharmaceuticals.

Even if they thoroughly investigated the truck's destination and its connection with Kangrong Pharmaceutical,

They still wouldn't be able to produce evidence that they spread the black scale disease.

And the current situation also caused Su Yue to start thinking.

Was there a way to find solid evidence that they spread the black scale disease, and subsequently eliminate their goal of profiting from it?

Just as Su Yue was thinking, the next message sent by Old Sha instantly made his expression solemn.

"Huang Mao and I plan to go into the factory undercover."

"We can't get any information from the outside. Infiltrating the enemy's interior is better than staking out outside the factory."

Looking at the message from Old Sha, it was indeed a feasible way to gather information at the moment.

However, it was still unclear about the details of Norman Pharmaceuticals. Just based on their daring to spread the black scale disease in the City,

These people were by no means good sorts, and going in would inevitably carry risks.

Su Yue had some concerns in his heart, but Old Sha was quite determined.

"People like us have been wandering outside. Going into the factory won't arouse suspicion."

"Moreover, even if they do investigate our backgrounds, they won't find anything."

Seeing that Old Sha had made a decision and truly intended to go into the factory to investigate.

Su Yue did not dissuade him and gave an affirmative reply.

And when Old Sha saw the message from Su Yue, he turned to Huang Mao and said:

"Alright, Yuan agreed to our plan."

Hearing this, Huang Mao felt a bit excited at the thought of going into the factory as an undercover agent.

Just as the two were preparing to return to the Norman Pharmaceuticals factory building.

Old Sha's phone rang again. Seeing the message on it, Old Sha's eyes widened slightly.

It was a payment received message, and Old Sha counted the numbers on it; it was actually a five-digit sum.

Immediately after, Yuan also sent a message.

"Plan expenses. Be sure to ensure your safety."

"Discover useful intelligence, and there will be additional compensation."

Old Sha swallowed, feeling quite emotional.

He thought that agreeing to join the organization with Yuan earlier was indeed the right choice.

Just after stating his plan, Yuan's generosity was remarkable.

Looking at the numbers on the screen, Old Sha didn't forget that it was Huang Mao who first proposed the idea.

Without hiding anything, he directly showed the content on his phone to Huang Mao.

"Oh my, Bro Sha... This is from the person above? So much?"

Huang Mao, this young kid, had never seen anyone give out so much money at once.

Especially when he heard Old Sha frankly say that the compensation received could be split equally with him.

Huang Mao immediately became motivated. Looking at Old Sha, who was still catching his breath, he signaled that he would ride in the back this time.

Then he pedaled the old bicycle and headed towards the Norman Pharmaceuticals factory building.

...

Su Yue sat at his workstation, thinking about Old Sha and Huang Mao's plan to go undercover at Norman Pharmaceuticals.

Just as the lunch break ended, employees returned to their workstations one after another.

Two employees nearby stretched and looked at the documents on their desks.

Compared to the first day back in the department, the documents piled up like a mountain on the desk were almost at the bottom.

With a slight sense of relief, he said, "Phew, the work that piled up for several days is finally about to be finished."

"It wasn't in vain to work overtime these past few days. Today we can finally relax a bit."

The other employees also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just then, a male employee walked into the Market Department holding a cardboard box full of stacked documents.

Seeing the cardboard box in the man's arms, the employees' faces turned liver-colored, their expressions as if shouting: Don't come over!

Su Yue also noticed the commotion at this time and looked at the man who returned with the documents.

This person was called Meng Chao, who usually liked to show off.

Now that the Director was isolated in the hospital, it gave Meng Chao an opportunity to perform.

There were already many tasks accumulated in the department, and Meng Chao was still finding gaps and making up for them.

Now another cardboard box of documents was delivered.

"Hey! Meng Chao, what are you doing?" the employees in the office area said one after another.

Meng Chao had a nonchalant expression and placed the heavy cardboard box directly on the desk.

"These are documents that were left over from the past few days and haven't been processed yet. Everyone, keep working hard. We can't slack off just because the Director isn't here."

Hearing Meng Chao's words, the employees all knew what he was planning.

He simply wanted to take advantage of the time the Director was away to perform well.

So that the leaders above, and even President Lan, would see his efforts, giving him a chance to get promoted.

This annoying level was just as irritating as students in school reminding the teacher to assign homework.

Thinking of this, some employees couldn't help but look at Su Yue.

Through their observations during this period, from the sick leave personally given by Lan Zijun and her visit,

They were all speculating that Su Yue had an extraordinary relationship with Lan Zijun.

Even if they were going to replace the Director, it wouldn't be Meng Chao's turn.

Thinking this in their hearts, they couldn't help but mutter a few words.

"Tch, the Director isn't here, and he really thinks he's seized an opportunity?"

"He should see whose connections in our department are stronger..."

The complaining was not quiet, and naturally, Meng Chao heard it clearly.

His mouth obviously twitched, and he glanced at Su Yue as if nothing had happened, his expression becoming somewhat gloomy.

And from beginning to end, Su Yue never paid attention to their discussion.

Because he knew about his relationship with Lan Zijun, the previous few approaches were also her testing his identity.

Even if he were to explain anything to others now, it would only backfire and make things worse.

"Hey? Meng Chao, where did you dig up these documents?"

At this moment, an employee seemed to have discovered something strange and took out a document from the cardboard box and said.

"Why is there even an investment proposal from Norman Pharmaceuticals? Didn't President Lan..."

"Norman Pharmaceuticals?" Before the employee finished speaking, Su Yue had already caught those four words.

He was currently investigating the details of Norman Pharmaceuticals, and Old Sha and Huang Mao were even planning to go into the factory as undercover agents.

Now it seemed that Norman Pharmaceuticals had previously approached Yuantu Investment?

Su Yue hadn't paid much attention to their conversation before, but now he became alert and listened in secretly.

And just like Su Yue, Meng Chao also became alert.

He seemed to have thought of something and immediately interrupted the employee's next words.

Then his gaze fell on Su Yue, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He turned and glanced at that employee, snatching the folder from his hand.

"Oh... Norman Pharmaceuticals, as for the investment in this company, President Lan discussed it with the representative they sent, right?"

"It's just that President Lan's attitude was a bit ambiguous. We need to find someone to ask for clarification."

As Meng Chao said this, everyone in the office area heard it clearly.

He clearly said it intentionally for everyone to hear.

For a moment, the surrounding employees discussed in low voices, and they could also guess what Meng Chao was planning.

And just as everyone guessed, it turned out to be true.

Meng Chao stepped forward to Su Yue's workstation, a friendly smile on his face as he said:

"Su Yue, are you quite close to President Lan?"

"How about I give this task to you? Anyway, it's just a matter of a few words."

Instantly, the surrounding employees turned their heads, and some seemed to want to say something, but no one spoke first.

And Su Yue also sensed that the atmosphere around him was a bit off, but he didn't pay attention.

He was currently worried about not being able to find information related to Norman Pharmaceuticals.

Now, how fortunate, someone actually directly handed this document to him.

Moreover, even if Norman Pharmaceuticals caused him to attract some suspicion again,

The employees in this office area could all testify that Meng Chao forced the document into his hand.

"Oh, alright." Su Yue went along with it and took the document Meng Chao handed over.

He wore a gentle smile, completely ignoring the slyness in Meng Chao's eyes, as if he didn't see it.

Then, holding the document, he stood up and said, "Has this company been researched? I'll go find out if there's any related content."

After Su Yue finished speaking, he also found an excuse, preparing to use the company's resources to investigate this pharmaceutical company.

And as Su Yue's figure left, the friendliness on Meng Chao's face disappeared, and he stopped pretending.

Seeing this, the surrounding employees also spoke up:

"I say, Meng Chao, are you really stupid or just pretending?"

"Don't tell me you forgot that the representative from Norman Pharmaceuticals had an unpleasant encounter with President Lan a while ago?"

"This is a company that President Lan has already rejected. You're still letting Su Yue do market research? Isn't that just waiting for him to incur President Lan's displeasure?"

Hearing the discussions of the surrounding employees, Meng Chao sneered:

"Is that so? This company was rejected? Who knows about it?"

"Does Su Yue know? If I remember correctly, he was still on sick leave that day, wasn't he?"

Indeed, when William, the representative from Norman Pharmaceuticals, visited to discuss cooperation with Lan Zijun, Su Yue was still at home recovering from his left arm injury.

And precisely because of this, Meng Chao's mouth curled into a cold smile, and in his mind, President Lan's angry expression seemed to have already appeared.

On the other side, Su Yue was holding the document and also looking for some related information.

Just as he walked out of the office area to enter the elevator, he ran into Li Haoyang and Yang Qingmei.

The other party had clearly just finished lunch with Yang Qingmei, and the two were sharing an elevator, smiles still on their faces.

The moment the elevator door opened, Li Haoyang saw Su Yue.

"Yo, Yue Ge, where are you going?"

"To do some research," Su Yue said, indicating the document in his hand.

"Oh, I'll head back then," Li Haoyang said to Yang Qingmei, then walked out of the elevator.

At this moment, only Su Yue and Yang Qingmei were left in the elevator.

Yang Qingmei gave a perfunctory greeting, and then her gaze also fell on the document in Su Yue's hand.
