455: Lure the snake out of its hole

As night fell, the lights of the Virtual Industrial Park gradually extinguished.

Su Yue and Lan Zijun drove out from the main gate, specifically greeting the security personnel.

Just as they left, Liu Le walked out from the guard post, a smile on his face, and sneaked back into the Virtual Industrial Park.

However, Liu Le didn't expect that Su Yue's car was parked right by the entrance, and the two saw Liu Le return inside with their own eyes.

Lan Zijun glanced at Su Yue and couldn't help but say to Su Yue, "General Manager Su, it seems we weren't wrong in our guesses."

Su Yue nodded slightly, "Wang Ye wouldn't lie to me. His entire focus is on high-end equipment."

As Liu Le returned to the office, Wang Ye's call came through to Su Yue's phone, "General Manager Su, he's back."

Su Yue took a deep breath and chuckled, "Then let's go back through the back door and see. Hopefully, he won't cause trouble."

In their eyes, there should be nothing in the Virtual Industrial Park now that Liu Le could steal.

The Virtual Industrial Park was acquired by Su Yue. He had already walked through the entire grounds of the Virtual Industrial Park and knew many small paths.

In just five minutes, the two deliberately parked the car at the entrance and walked back into the industrial park.

Suddenly, two security personnel walked out from inside, pointing in Su Yue's direction, "Who's there? Came in through the back door?"

The two planned to catch Liu Le red-handed, so they naturally didn't tell the security personnel.

Su Yue quickly walked up to the security personnel, gave them a gesture, and had the two follow behind him.

Catching a thief requires catching them with the stolen goods. If they didn't have any evidence, they definitely couldn't apprehend Liu Le.

Just then, Wang Ye's call came through to Su Yue's phone again, "Liu Le is downstairs from us. Should we act now?"

Upon learning that Liu Le was attempting to steal their technology, Su Yue's face was serious, "Act. We'll be watching you from outside."

When Wang Ye received Su Yue's response, he immediately walked out of the office, his face filled with ecstasy, "Haha, success."

Liu Le originally thought there was no one else in the Virtual Industrial Park. No one expected Wang Ye to actually be in the office.

Liu Le looked at Wang Ye with a face full of shock, thought for a moment, and walked over to Wang Ye's side.

"President Wang, have you guys had a breakthrough in technology?"

Wang Ye nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I finally found a way to control the copyright. Go out and buy me some late-night snacks, I'm modifying the equipment."

Just as he predicted, Liu Le followed behind Wang Ye, his face full of curiosity, "Can you let me see?"

If it were before, Wang Ye definitely wouldn't have agreed to Liu Le's request.

But this time, Wang Ye readily agreed, pointing to the equipment downstairs, "Come with me, I happen to need your help."

Liu Le was originally his assistant, which meant he had been in contact with the hardware inside the equipment for a long time.

Wang Ye placed the fake anti-counterfeiting label inside and chuckled, "The copyright equipment has this label."

Before Liu Le could say anything, Wang Ye took out the computer, intending to modify the code inside it.

Just then, Su Yue and Lan Zijun came out from outside the door with the security personnel, and a few people crouched in the corner.

The Virtual Industrial Park is quite large. They only needed to hide in the dark, and no one could see Su Yue and his group.

When Su Yue saw that Wang Ye had finished the preparations, he immediately sent a text message to Wang Ye.

Wang Ye glanced at the text message on his phone and slowly walked outside, "Keep an eye on things for me, I have something to do."

Liu Le didn't know he had been exposed and watched him leave the Virtual Industrial Park.

Meanwhile, Su Yue's phone camera was constantly aimed at Liu Le, trying to see if he could catch any clues from him.

Lan Zijun watched Su Yue's phone camera continuously aimed at Liu Le, her face serious, wanting to see if he would make a mistake.

After about five minutes, Liu Le deliberately called Wang Ye.

When he learned that Wang Ye had left the Virtual Industrial Park, he immediately took out a portable hard drive from his pocket.

Su Yue looked at the hard drive in his hand, his face full of sarcasm, "It seems the evidence is in the hard drive he's holding."

Lan Zijun heard that Su Yue had already guessed the evidence was in the hard drive, took a deep breath, and was about to stand up.

Suddenly, Su Yue grabbed Lan Zijun, "Wait, I don't know if there's anything in his hard drive."

If there's nothing in the hard drive, going out now would alert the enemy.

When Lan Zijun saw that Su Yue seemed to be warning her, her face was serious, "Right, I almost forgot about that."

After about ten minutes, Liu Le unplugged the hard drive and put it in his pocket.

Only now did Su Yue feel that the time was ripe.

Su Yue turned his head and looked at the two people behind him, "You two go and arrest him."

The security personnel exchanged glances and slowly walked towards Liu Le, intercepting him.

When Liu Le saw the security personnel walking towards him, his face was tense, "You... why are you stopping me?"

Just then, Su Yue and Lan Zijun slowly walked out, their faces full of mockery.

Liu Le originally thought the security personnel had no evidence. No one expected Su Yue to actually be right behind them.

Instantly, Liu Le understood and started to flee outside at the fastest speed.

However, the security personnel were not to be trifled with. The two firmly held Liu Le down on the ground, leaving him with no options.

Su Yue walked up to Liu Le, took something out of his pocket, and placed it in front of him.

"If I'm not mistaken, this hard drive should contain your evidence, right?"

Liu Le looked at Su Yue focusing his gaze on him, his face full of helplessness, and gave a bitter laugh, "I admit defeat."

In his eyes, as long as the portable hard drive was in their hands, he had no excuse.

Since Liu Le no longer had the strength to resist, Su Yue pointed in the direction of the office, "Can we talk?"

Having finally caught this opportunity, how could Su Yue not have a good talk with him?

In just a few seconds, a few people brought Liu Le back into the office.

To prevent company secrets from being known by the security personnel, Su Yue couldn't help but say to them, "You all leave here."

The security personnel exchanged glances and left the office.

Su Yue and Lan Zijun sat in front of Liu Le, a smile on their faces, "Tell us what information you transmitted?"

To ensure he would tell the truth, Su Yue placed the hard drive in front of him.

As long as Liu Le told even a slight lie, they could read the contents of the portable hard drive.

Perhaps because Liu Le wanted to protect himself, he quickly said to Su Yue, "General Manager Su, President Lan, I... I know I was wrong."

Su Yue looked at Liu Le's face full of regret, his temper immediately flared up, and he slapped the table hard.

"Confess honestly, how much information did you transmit to Xiong Kuo? I need accurate and precise information."

Liu Le knew that speaking up might anger Su Yue, but he had no other choice.

Liu Le took a deep breath and lowered his head, "The models and code for your equipment were all leaked by me."

With just one sentence, Su Yue and Lan Zijun exchanged glances, somewhat regretting arranging him in such a place.

But there's no medicine for regret in this world. Su Yue took a deep breath, "I have one request for you now."

Liu Le heard that Su Yue seemed to imply a request and nodded repeatedly, "Tell me what it is. As long as you can let me go, I'll agree to anything."

Su Yue looked at Liu Le willing to cooperate with him, sat in front of him with a serious face, "Accuse Xiong Kuo."

Although he had betrayed the information, Su Yue could bring him back.

In just a few seconds, Liu Le nodded with a serious face, "I'll listen to you."

Su Yue looked at Liu Le's serious face and couldn't help but walk over to Lan Zijun's side, "President Lan, prepare the reporters."

Because it was already very late, they needed to prepare the personnel for tomorrow.

Just as the two were making preparations, Liu Le secretly came up to Su Yue's side, "You won't abandon me after crossing the river, will you?"

The thing he feared most now was being abandoned after crossing the river; that way, he might be caught and put inside.

Liu Le originally thought Su Yue would definitely give him a positive answer. No one expected Su Yue to completely ignore him.

In their eyes, Liu Le was the one who caused them trouble.

Su Yue pointed towards the sofa, "Just sit here obediently and wait for our orders, understood?"

Now, the evidence was in their hands.

Even if Liu Le wanted to escape, he would need to find a way to take the hard drive from the table.

In just a few seconds, Su Yue walked to the side with his phone and called Xiong Kuo.

Although it was already very late, Xiong Kuo was still not resting and picked up the phone in almost one or two seconds.

The video game city and the Virtual Industrial Park were two competing businesses, meaning only one of them could survive.

Xiong Kuo saw that Su Yue had called him and couldn't help but say to Su Yue, "General Manager Su, what do you need me for?"

Su Yue took a deep breath, "I wonder if you have time? Let's talk outside. I don't want to fall out completely."

In his eyes, if Xiong Kuo fell out with him completely, both sides might expose each other's flaws.

From a business perspective, exposing each other's flaws is a lose-lose situation.

When Xiong Kuo heard that Su Yue seemed to imply negotiation, he thought for a moment, "The coffee shop across from your company, I'll wait for you there."

Up until now, Xiong Kuo didn't know that Liu Le had fallen into Su Yue's hands. He still thought he was invincible.

Soon, Su Yue returned to the office and walked up to Liu Le, "Come with me for a while."

Liu Le knew that Su Yue might want to take him to see Xiong Kuo, so he reluctantly agreed, and the two walked outside.

It didn't take long for the two to arrive at the coffee shop.

At this moment, Xiong Kuo was already sitting inside, his face smiling, about to speak.

Suddenly, his peripheral vision caught Liu Le next to Su Yue, and the smile on his face instantly froze.

Others might not recognize Liu Le, but he recognized him at a glance.

Su Yue deliberately pretended not to know anything, pointed to Liu Le beside him, and chuckled, "This is my technician."

Xiong Kuo nodded slightly and sat opposite them, his face full of awkwardness.

In just a few seconds, Xiong Kuo glanced at Su Yue, "We're negotiating, just the two of us. What do you mean by bringing someone?"

In his eyes, negotiations were always one-on-one. He had never seen someone bring someone along to negotiate.

Su Yue saw Xiong Kuo focusing his gaze on him and chuckled, "We were both working overtime, so I brought him along."

At this moment, bringing Liu Le here was to put pressure on Xiong Kuo, with the aim of getting him to back down, preferably resolving it peacefully.

Since the goal had been achieved, Su Yue couldn't help but point to another table, "Then go out and buy me a pack of cigarettes."

Liu Le readily agreed, took the money from Su Yue's hand with both hands, and left the coffee shop.

Xiong Kuo looked at Su Yue with a confused face, not understanding if Su Yue had noticed anything unusual about Liu Le.

Just then, Su Yue placed his phone on the table, "Let's talk, otherwise, neither of us will make any money like this."

In his eyes, both the Virtual Industrial Park and the video game city had invested a lot of money.

If the two of them continued to fight internally, he believed neither company would make money.

Xiong Kuo heard that Su Yue seemed to imply a blame and thought for a moment, "I can only promise I won't poach your people."

As for other matters, he didn't make any promises, feeling that Liu Le might bring him more equipment information.

Su Yue originally thought he could use Liu Le to exert pressure, but who knew Xiong Kuo didn't take it to heart at all.

Since that was the case, he didn't need to be polite. He chuckled, "I'm interested in your video game city. Sell it."

He and Lan Zijun had already discussed the price of the video game city in the office and placed the contract in front of Xiong Kuo.

The price on the contract was quite fair and wouldn't cause Xiong Kuo to lose money.

But his previous investment and effort would definitely be in vain. He just didn't know if Xiong Kuo would be willing.

Xiong Kuo carefully read the contents of the contract, then threw it into the trash can, his face full of rage.

"Do you think I pick up trash? You'd send me a contract like this?"

Su Yue looked at Xiong Kuo's angry face and shrugged indifferently, "This is our bottom line price."

Xiong Kuo had no intention of negotiating at all. He casually grabbed the cup on the table and splashed its contents.

In an instant, Su Yue's face was covered in splashed coffee.

He watched Xiong Kuo leave the coffee shop and sent Xiong Kuo a text message with his phone, the content being information about the theft.

At this moment, Xiong Kuo had just reached the entrance and saw the message Su Yue sent him at a glance.

In just a few seconds, he understood that Su Yue already knew about Liu Le acting as an inside person.

Moreover, the evidence was very likely in his hands, and he had become the passive party.
