After receiving Zhao Liang’s call and learning that he might have high-definition photos of a suspect possibly responsible for the series of supernatural phenomena in the Dahngheng Real Estate headquarters building, Wang Shuquan couldn’t help but show a surprised expression.
However, he didn’t just stand there doing nothing because of his shock. After telling Zhao Liang over the phone that he would be right there, he quickly hung up and hurriedly rushed toward the surveillance room in their headquarters building.
After jogging for a few minutes and successfully reaching the surveillance room, Wang Shuquan caught his breath for a moment before urgently asking Zhao Liang, who was sitting in a chair.
“Officer Zhao, you said you’ve found high-definition photos of a potential suspect. Could I take a look at those photos?”
Facing Wang Shuquan’s request, Zhao Liang, who had called him over precisely to see if he recognized the person in the high-definition image provided by Yan Qi, didn’t hesitate at all. He handed his phone displaying the high-definition image to Wang Shuquan.
Seeing this, Wang Shuquan immediately took Zhao Liang’s phone and then saw the specific appearance of the person in the high-definition image on the screen.
“Hmm, why does this person look somewhat familiar?”
Looking at the high-definition image on Zhao Liang’s phone, Wang Shuquan, who felt the person looked rather familiar, couldn’t help but furrow his brow and silently think to himself.
Noticing the subtle change in Wang Shuquan’s expression and knowing he must recognize the suspect in the image, Zhao Liang promptly inquired.
“Secretary Wang, judging by your frown just now, you probably know the person in this photo, right?”
Hearing Zhao Liang’s question, Wang Shuquan, who indeed found the suspect in the provided high-definition image familiar but simply couldn’t remember where he had seen him, answered honestly.
“Officer Zhao, I do find the person in this photo familiar, but I’m sorry, I really can’t recall where I’ve seen this person.”
“Since you find the person familiar but can’t remember where exactly you’ve seen him, perhaps you could ask your colleagues. I believe someone among them should be able to identify this person.”
After hearing Wang Shuquan’s reply and thinking for a moment, Zhao Liang offered his suggestion.
Wang Shuquan naturally agreed with Zhao Liang’s suggestion.
After getting Zhao Liang’s permission, he quickly called over a dozen senior colleagues who had worked for Dahngheng Real Estate for many years. He showed them the suspect’s high-definition image and asked if anyone recognized the person’s identity.
Asked by Wang Shuquan and Zhao Liang like this, an older employee responsible for external corporate image and public relations, after pondering for a moment, finally remembered the identity of the suspect in the high-definition image.
“Secretary Wang, I recognize the person in this photo. He is Han Xiaohu, the younger brother of a worker from a construction team that once collaborated with our Dahngheng Real Estate.”
“Han Xiaohu? Why do you know him?”
Hearing that someone among the senior staff recognized the person in the high-definition image, Zhao Liang quickly stepped forward to ask the older employee.
At this, the older employee’s face showed a hesitant expression, unsure whether he should reveal the shady dealings from back then.
“Old Huang, what are you hesitating for at a time like this? Hurry up and answer Officer Zhao’s question.”
Eager to resolve the supernatural phenomena in their headquarters building, Wang Shuquan, seeing his company’s senior employee looking so hesitant, urged him promptly.
Urged by Wang Shuquan like this, Old Huang stopped hesitating. After sighing, he answered Zhao Liang.
“The reason I know this Han Xiaohu is because his older brother was once a worker in an engineering team that collaborated with our Dahngheng Real Estate. He died in an accident during construction due to not following regulations. Han Xiaohu then used this as an excuse to come and cause a scene below our headquarters building, demanding huge compensation from us. If General Manager Guo hadn’t personally stepped in and called the police to drive him away at the time, things would have gotten out of hand.”
“I see. No wonder you know this Han Xiaohu.”
After listening to Old Huang’s explanation, Zhao Liang could tell from his tone and expression that not everything he said was the complete truth. He couldn’t help but feel somewhat angered, but unfortunately, as a member of the Special Affairs Bureau, he couldn’t interfere in matters beyond his jurisdiction.
Shaking his head and trying hard to stay calm, Zhao Liang quickly sent the specific identity information of the suspect, Han Xiaohu, to the brother department, asking them to help find Han Xiaohu’s current residential address.
Not long after, the brother department found Han Xiaohu’s recent residence and sent the information back to Zhao Liang’s phone.
Seeing the information sent by the brother department, Zhao Liang’s face showed a surprised expression.
But he quickly composed himself, put away his phone, and turned to Yan Qi, who was sitting in a chair not far away, unwilling to deal with these lackeys of the capitalists.
“Xiao Qi, we now know the specific address of the suspect, Han Xiaohu. As long as we find him and bring him back to the Special Affairs Bureau, our mission for today will be complete.”
Hearing Zhao Liang’s words, Yan Qi opened her eyes, jumped down from the chair, and walked over to Zhao Liang’s side with her arms crossed, looking displeased.
Seeing Yan Qi by his side, without saying much more to her, and accompanied by the enthusiastic Wang Shuquan—who knew the supernatural phenomena plaguing their headquarters building for days were about to be resolved—Zhao Liang led her downstairs to the entrance of the Dahngheng Real Estate headquarters building.
But just as they were about to leave the headquarters building, an unkempt, scruffy-bearded, haggard-looking middle-aged man with bloodshot eyes and reeking of alcohol suddenly pushed open the main door and staggered inside.
Looking at the person who had arrived, Yan Qi, who had maintained a grim expression while inside the Dahngheng Real Estate headquarters, showed her first emotional fluctuation because she recognized this middle-aged man.
“General Manager Guo, what happened to you? Did something happen at home?”
Wang Shuquan, who also recognized the middle-aged man entering the building as Guo Liangming, the General Manager of Dahngheng Real Estate, quickly stepped forward to support him while asking with surprise.
