242: Chapter 208: Blockade of Wanxing Group (Thanks to ‘N-thyl_1-phenylprop_2-amine’ for the reward as the leader) 242: Chapter 208: Blockade of Wanxing Group (Thanks to ‘N-thyl_1-phenylprop_2-amine’ for the reward as the leader) Outside the Wanxing Group office building.
Warning light screens ford by divine power were currently hovering inside and outside the building, sealing off all entry and exit routes, and enveloping the entire building.
Inside the security departnt, all mbers, including the security director, had been gathered in the hall, guarded by two ard patrol team mbers.
Although there were over a hundred security personnel affiliated with Wanxing Group present, none dared to act recklessly in front of these two ard personnel.
The two ard patrol team mbers were confident as well, believing that with their military-grade flying swords, managing a few hundred people would be no problem.
But at this mont, the company crowd suddenly started to stir.
The ard personnel shouted, “What are you doing?
Don’t move!”
“Don’t move!
If you continue to move, I’ll deploy the flying sword…”
At this mont, an employee pointed to the countdown above and said, “Officer!
We’ve been away from our workstations for a long ti, and our pay will be docked!”
Another shouted, “If it keeps getting docked, I’ll have to borrow money to go to work again!”
Soone else asked a neighbor, “If a flying sword pierces , will there be compensation?”
The others also began to stir, all clamoring to return to their workstations.
At this mont, the security director raised his hands, calming the crowd, “Everyone, don’t worry.
The company understands, and during the investigation period, it will be considered off-duty ti, not counted as work hours or evaluated for performance.
You can make up for the lost working hours with overti later.”
Hearing that the investigation would take place during off-duty ti, everyone collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
Yue Jincheng stood among the crowd at this mont, glancing at the floating warning lights of divine notifications outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
Yue Jincheng was shocked inside, “What on earth is happening to surround the entire office building?”
“Could it be that so company leader is involved in tax evasion?”
“Is our company about to go under?”
To him, only sothing as serious as tax evasion would alert the true god to seal the entire building.
Thinking that the company could be gone, causing him to lose his job, a wave of anxiety surged in Yue Jincheng’s heart.
Then Yue Jincheng heard voices ahead and turned to see the security director who had kicked him a little while ago, now nodding repeatedly and bowing to an ard officer.
The security director said politely, “Officer, our Wanxing Group has always had a good relationship with the Songyang City Inspection Team, and for years we’ve collaborated on copyright enforcent.”
“Do you know what is being investigated this ti?
Is there anything we can assist with?”
The officer rely glanced at him coldly without answering.
However, another ard officer beside him spoke up, “Stop poking around.
Even we don’t know what this action is about; you definitely don’t have clearance to know.”
The previously silent ard officer frowned, “Don’t say unnecessary things.”
Then he turned to the security director, coldly saying, “Go back and stand properly.
Soone will co to investigate your situation shortly.”
Seeing he couldn’t get any information, the security director returned to the crowd with a trace of unease on his face.
He worried to himself, “Could the company secretly be pirating other companies’ cultivation techniques?
Or is it smuggling from other cities?”
Seeing this massive setup, the security director could only believe sothing had really blown up.
He could only console himself, “Well, it surely has nothing to do with us down here.
It must be so big leader up top looking to boost profits has gone too far.”
Monts later, as divine light descended, Huang Zichou’s projection appeared before everyone.
His gaze swept over the crowd, countless related data already flashing back and forth in his mind via the network.
Seeing this arrival of the ninth-level Gong Cao Little God, everyone present adopted a solemn expression and collectively bowed, worshipping the deity at the scene.
Yue Jincheng was secretly astonished, “Could it really be theft and tax evasion?
But what does this have to do with our security departnt?”
At the sa ti, Huang Zichou had already focused his gaze on Yue Jincheng and Si Zhouyu, saying, “You two, co with .
I have questions for you.”
Yue Jincheng and Si Zhouyu exchanged glances, an expression of surprise flashing through their eyes.
Following Huang Zichou’s projection into an adjacent office, their minds rapidly considered what recent matters of theirs warranted a true god’s investigation.
“Aside from tracking Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, have Si Zhouyu and I done anything else in the past few days?”
Yue Jincheng mused secretly, “Is it because of Zhang Yu’s situation they sought us out?”
“How could just their affairs cause such an upheaval?”
Glancing at the warning light screens that sealed the entire building outside the window, Yue Jincheng shook his head, dismissing that thought.
Nearby, Si Zhouyu also felt similar thoughts rising, wondering if they had unknowingly stumbled into a major event.
However, Huang Zichou’s next words shattered their illusions.
Huang Zichou: “How long have you two been monitoring Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen?”
Yue Jincheng was slightly taken aback, slowly replying, “I don’t understand what you an.”
Huang Zichou laughed coldly, flicking his finger, a screen appeared showing surveillance footage of Yue Jincheng and Si Zhouyu in different disguises, taking the tro, entering the protection zone, and visiting the breeding base.
Huang Zichou said lightly, “Although you kept changing your appearance along the way, your paynt records don’t lie.”
“Don’t think you can deny it, nor that Wanxing Group can protect you.”
Divine power surged like waves, sweeping over, pinning the two firmly against the wall with Huang Zichou’s words.
Huang Zichou continued with intimidation, “This matter has caused quite a stir, attracting the attention of the sixth-level Upper God.
A mishap could bankrupt the entire Wanxing Group…”
Yue Jincheng and Si Zhouyu were stunned upon hearing this but couldn’t fathom why: “What could possibly have drawn the intervention of a sixth-level god to these two poor students, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen?”
Huang Zichou waited for a long ti, seeing that the two had no intention of taking out a talisman, he thought to himself, “Sigh, they don’t even know a good impression talisman, and they are university students?
What kind of people are these companies hiring nowadays.”
As the True God’s blockade and investigation of the Wanxing Group began, the entire group’s operations suddenly ca to a halt, causing imnse losses every second.
Many shareholders, leaders, and directors began to use their networks to gather information, wanting to know what exactly happened and what the True Gods intended to investigate.
Yet the more they inquired, the more surprised they beca.
Because they found that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t find out the reason for the True God’s action this ti.
They couldn’t get any information even when they tried to gather it from other divine personnel, or even the True God.
The level of confidentiality far exceeded their expectations.
But they were not completely without gains.
From the information collected and the interrogated personnel by the True God…
“Zhang Yu?
Bai Zhenzhen?
Who are these two?
Why is the True God continually investigating matters related to them?”
“Is this uproar related to these two people?”
…
As the investigation into the Wanxing Group continued, various large and small forces in Songyang City gradually received the news.
Yun Ni, as one of the captains of Songyang City’s Inspection Teams, naturally learned part of the information.
“Is it because of the Foundation Establishnt exam?”
Yun Ni had already speculated about Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s departure from the city, and upon hearing about the situation with the Wanxing Group, thought to himself:
“But no matter how bold the Zhou Family is, they shouldn’t dare to interfere with the Foundation Establishnt exam.”
“This might be the sixth-rank True God seizing the opportunity to take a bite out of the Wanxing Group and the Zhou Family.”
“What roles do Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen play in all this?”
“Even with sothing like the Foundation Establishnt exam as an excuse, for a conflict to attract a sixth-rank True God, could they, like Zhang Pianpian, have the backing of a certain powerful god?”
The more he thought about it, the more plausible it seed, and Zhang Pianpian, Zhang Yu, and Bai Zhenzhen beca increasingly unfathomable in Yun Ni’s mind.
At the sa ti, Yun Ni also guessed the impact of this matter on Songyang City in the future.
“During this investigation, the True God is bound to focus on the matters involving Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, inevitably backing these two Foundation Establishnt exam candidates.”
“To those unaware of the Foundation Establishnt exam, in their eyes…
it’s the sixth-rank True God taking action to back Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen and bleeding the Wanxing Group and the Zhou Family.”
“And for those aware of the Foundation Establishnt exam, as long as they probe with the intention, they’ll soon deduce the possibility of Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s participation in the exam, yet at this critical juncture, they will definitely keep their mouths shut and not reveal any information.”
“Even if people in the know are questioned, at most they’ll say Zhang Yu has the backing of a True God and a significant background, right?
Only by doing so can they prevent the student’s information from the Foundation Establishnt exam from being leaked.”
Yun Ni thought of the Zhou Family: “What will they do?”
“They will certainly strive to prove that they have no intentions of probing the Foundation Establishnt exam.”
“So, they’ll have to justify the actions against Zhang Yu as a normal public security matter.”
Thinking of this, Yun Ni smiled slightly and said, “Then the key to the matter also depends on whether Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen cooperate with them.”
…
Inside Songyang High School.
Zhou Chechen was ditating and cultivating in a quiet room, breathing in the spiritual chanism, and refining mana.
But he couldn’t stop thinking about the matter concerning Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.
“As soon as the company took action, it directly sent these two into custody.”
“Sigh, an individual is so insignificant in front of a company…”
Just as he was pondering, his phone suddenly vibrated.
While cultivating, Zhou Chechen initially didn’t want to answer the call, but as the phone kept vibrating, he picked it up.
Seeing the caller display, Zhou Chechen was startled: “Father?”
As one of his father’s many sons, Zhou Chechen, despite having quite good achievents, rarely received ssages from him.
Looking at the ssage now from him, Zhou Chechen felt as if bombs were exploding one after another, leaving him imnsely surprised.
“The Wanxing Group has been sealed off by the True God?”
“The family is also being investigated by the Divine Departnt?”
“A sixth-rank True God?!”
“Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s backer?!”
Seeing his father’s final reminder, Zhou Chechen felt incredulous: “The backer of Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen is actually a sixth-rank True God?”
“No wonder, no wonder these two could rise so quickly, no wonder they always seem fearless.”
“It’s probably not just Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, but this sixth-rank True God might also be the backing behind Zhang Pianpian.”
At this mont, Zhou Chechen suddenly felt as if his heart was cleared, but then beca worried again, concerned about what fate awaits him being caught in this power struggle.
Right then, Zhou Hao, who had been managing security, ca to Zhou Chechen’s side, looked at him, and said, “So things are inconvenient to say on the phone, so your father asked to relay to you.”
Zhou Hao said, “He knows that this matter was led by your uncle and has nothing to do with you.”
“But since they seized the opportunity this ti, there are still things you need to do…”
