Chapter 3247 Being sold out and still helping count the money

Industrial University, President's Office.

Principal Wang stared wide-eyed at the documents in front of him. He couldn't speak, he wanted to close his eyes but dared not, he couldn't think of anything, it was as if he was being choked, he had to look and he had to remember this fact.

咕咚

Swallow your saliva.

Everything went black before his eyes, and he collapsed onto the table.

The office was instantly bustling with activity.

However, Liu Lixue and the others she brought remained seated to the side, silent and motionless.

Finally, just as Principal Wang's philtrum was about to be swollen from being pinched, he slowly woke up.

Section Chief Li, who was standing to the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now is not the time to faint, otherwise what will happen to him, the head of the security department?

Principal Wang felt the stinging pain under his nose, glanced at Section Chief Li, and his heart sank again.

His gaze lingered on the document for a moment, then he looked up at Secretary Liu across from him.

Liu Lixue had changed back into her work clothes, but her heroic spirit remained undiminished.

Principal Wang also understood that everything before was just an act.

Or rather, it was a sacrifice made for the sake of the investigation.

But he couldn't bear the consequences of the sacrifice.

"Secretary Liu, is this... is this true?"

Principal Wang spoke with difficulty. Although the written agreement was clear, he never imagined that the talent he valued was actually a traitor.

That's terrifying, absolutely terrifying.

He even treated the other party like a nephew, and was thinking of getting them together, and even thought of sending him to the Ninth Ministry.

Thankfully, thankfully it didn't happen.

Otherwise, my life would be over.

Relieved, Principal Wang suddenly looked at the two people next to Liu Lixue. When they were introduced earlier, these two were from the Internal Affairs Department.

The thought of that name sent a chill down Principal Wang's spine.

He quickly explained, "What I mean is, if it's true, this person must be severely punished, and the matter must be thoroughly investigated. No bad person can be let off the hook."

Principal Wang spoke excitedly, almost as if he wanted to rip out his heart to show his loyalty.

Liu Lixue felt contemptuous upon hearing the other party's words, but Yang Xiaotao had specifically instructed her not to exaggerate the matter and that the other party needed to continue studying the printer.

We must not let the relationship become too strained.

Of course, we can't just let them off the hook.

After all, nothing went wrong this time, but what about next time?

Moreover, the fact that the other side was able to so easily infiltrate the school shows that their vigilance was far too low.

"Principal Wang, don't worry. This is a joint effort by multiple parties to capture them. We won't let any bad guys get away."

As Liu Lixue spoke calmly, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Principal Wang's forehead. The cold weather made him feel chilled to the bone, and his heart sank to the bottom.

"Of course, we will not wrong any innocent person."

Liu Lixue changed her tone and said something that reassured Principal Wang: "We have investigated you and found no problems."

"As General Manager Yang also said, Wang Zihao is Wang Zihao, and you are you; they cannot be confused."

“You, who have made contributions to the revolution, should be treated differently.”

Speak frankly and directly, without beating around the bush.

But what Principal Wang feared was that the other party wouldn't conduct an investigation.

In that case, you won't even have a chance to defend yourself.

"Thank you to the organization, thank you to the leaders, thank you to General Manager Yang, and thank you to my comrades."

Principal Wang quickly said, finally feeling relieved.

Liu Lixue simply nodded, then spoke again, "These two comrades still have some things they need to know, and we hope you can cooperate."

Principal Wang immediately nodded, "I will cooperate, I will definitely cooperate."

He looked at the two of them as he spoke.

Xiao Bo, who was leading the group, smiled at Principal Wang and then gestured for his companions to take out paper and pen to prepare for taking notes.

"Hello, Principal Wang, we'd like to understand some of the situation. Please answer truthfully."

Xiao Bo spoke very politely, and Principal Wang nodded hurriedly, then walked over and personally poured tea for the group.

“Wang Zihao is Wang Jiahao, that’s his real name.”

"I want to know how the other party got into the school, and Principal Wang needs to clarify that."

Without a second thought, Principal Wang replied, "Wang Jiahao, no, Wang Zihao, was recommended by the school's honorary principal."

"Who?"

"Wang Santong".

Is he at school now?

Principal Wang shook his head. "He went on a business trip to Hong Kong last month."

"last month?"

Xiao Bo frowned, then continued to ask, "What about his family?"

He has no family.

Principal Wang immediately said that he also realized the problem at that moment.

"How could you not have any family?"

When Liu Lixue asked, Principal Wang smiled bitterly and said, "His family was wiped out in the war, leaving only his daughter, who eventually immigrated to the United States, so he has no family in the country."

Xiao Bo shook his head helplessly, knowing that it would be very difficult to catch this person again.

Who are the people he usually interacts with most?

"He usually supervises several graduate students at the university and also leads a polymer materials project group."

After Principal Wang finished speaking, Xiao Bo looked at Liu Lixue.

The latter nodded and then said, "Principal Wang, it would be best to suspend these projects for now, and restrict the departure of relevant personnel. The college should do a good job in this regard."

Principal Wang nodded quickly, then looked at Section Chief Li beside him, "The security department should take action as soon as possible to prevent any further mistakes."

Section Chief Li nodded repeatedly.

Xiao Bo then continued to ask questions.

The entire morning was spent asking questions. After the questioning was over, Xiao Bo got up to leave.

"Section Chief Li, keep a close eye on the people at the academy during this period. We will come over to check on the situation at any time."

Before leaving, Xiao Bo gave Li some instructions. Li, who had no other thoughts, nodded and agreed, "Don't worry, comrade, our security department will never make the same mistake again."

Xiao Bo nodded, then waited for Liu Lixue.

At that moment, Liu Lixue was giving Principal Wang her final instructions, saying, "President Yang asked me to pass on a message to you."

Principal Wang immediately straightened his posture and said seriously, "Please speak."

Liu Lixue took a deep breath and then solemnly said, "President Yang said that science has no borders, but scientists do."

After saying that, he nodded and left.

Principal Wang was stunned on the spot.

After everyone left, Section Chief Li walked up to him and saw that Principal Wang was sweating profusely. He quickly went over and helped him up.

"Principal Wang, you have to hang in there!"

Principal Wang waved his hand, "Don't worry, I won't fall down right now."

After speaking, he walked back to his chair and slowly sat down.

Section Chief Li opened his mouth as if to speak, but then suppressed his concern and said, "I'll go arrange it!"

Principal Wang waved his hand, and Section Chief Li quickly left.

The office returned to calm, but Principal Wang listened to his heartbeat and his expression changed drastically.

He was still pondering the words Liu Lixue had conveyed: "Science has no borders, but scientists do."

After a long while, he closed his eyes, his expression full of regret.

"That was almost the end of me!"

In the interrogation room, Zhang Chao and Jiang Han sat on the table, staring directly at the young man in front of them.

Do you smoke?

Zhang Chao asked the question, and Wang Zihao coldly looked up and nodded.

Jiang Han stood up, lit a cigarette, and handed it to Wang Zihao. Wang Zihao took the cigarette, took a deep drag, and then began to cough violently.

"What kind of lousy cigarette is this? Can this even be considered a cigarette?"

Wang Zihao threw the cigarette on the ground, his face full of disdain.

Jiang Han frowned, watching his precious cigarette being thrown on the ground, and he felt a surge of anger.

But Wang Zihao laughed when he saw this. "You're so reluctant to spend even a cigarette. No wonder you'll be poor your whole lives."

"The poor".

"The poor".

Wang Zihao, with his hands in shackles, pounded his fists on the table.

At this moment, it was as if they had found an outlet, and their previous cowardice and fear were thrown aside.

Yes, he confessed everything, but he hadn't finished speaking his mind.

He still had a lot of grievances to vent.

We must deliver a final critique of this unjust world.

Wang Zihao's gaze fell on Zhang Chao and the other man. A surge of pride welled up inside him, and he smiled mockingly at them, saying, "Do you know about 555 cigarettes?"

Jiang Han stepped forward, stubbed out the cigarette, and then sat back down in his original spot.

The two ignored him, but in Wang Zihao's eyes, that was cowardice.

So, he said it without any regard for others.

"55 cigarettes, that's a century-old classic British brand."

Do you know Dunhill?

"That's the purest British flue-cured tobacco, with a rich flavor, famous all over the world."

"And Hilton, you guys definitely haven't tried it. It's not cheap. It's said to be produced in many countries. Oh, you definitely haven't."

The mocking voices were extremely harsh, causing Jiang Han to clench his fists, wishing he could rush forward and beat the bastard to death.

Zhang Chao, on the other hand, tapped his fingers on the documents on the table, his expression calm.

"Oh, right, there's another brand of cigarettes that you've definitely smoked before."

"Black cat, you know, it's a black cat. My dad told me that these things already existed back in the Republic of China era, you guys..."

Wang Zihao then gave a mocking smile, "You guys might not even be able to afford it, because without money, you can't buy anything, hahaha."

Seeing Wang Zihao's undisguised mockery, Jiang Han slammed his fist on the table and roared, "What are you laughing at?"

"We were poor without our ancestors, but now we've turned the tables and become the masters of our own destiny."

"And you? You're nothing but a dog kept by foreigners, a heartless ingrate."

"What right do you have to laugh at us? You're not even as good as an animal."

bang bang

"What do you know? You know nothing at all."

Wang Zihao struggled, veins bulging on his neck, "You don't know anything, you're just an idiot, a moron, you don't understand anything."

"This world needs progress, this world needs science, and we need everyone to work together to save civilization."

"Instead of closing the door, working in isolation, and each doing their own thing."

At this point, Wang Zihao's expression turned resentful again. "I don't understand why there are nine rules, why they can't let us overseas returnees enter the research field with just one sentence."

"This kind of discrimination is itself a form of backwardness, don't you understand?"

"Science knows no borders; it allows ideas to spread across different countries and sparks new ideas through the collision of ideas."

"Excuse me."

Zhang Chao suddenly spoke up, directly stopping Wang Zihao's madness.

Wang Zihao looked over at Zhang Chao, who was speaking, and heard Zhang Chao say, "What were you talking about earlier, like cigarettes, lifestyle, brands, and stuff like that?"

"Actually, I didn't really take it to heart."

"That's right, our material life is not up to the standard of Britain now, but we are quite content."

"But if you dare say that Britain sent a fleet to show off its power, I will definitely give you a thumbs up."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zihao's Adam's apple bobbed, and he swallowed the words he was about to say.

Nowadays, not only Britain, but even the fleets of the United States dare not approach its territorial waters at will.

It wasn't just caused by the international situation, but also by those blue ghosts and white strange birds in the sky.

There are also killers from the ocean.

Britain has long since withdrawn from the stage of the Pacific.

"The second one!"

Zhang Chao held up his finger and said, "I've heard about your talk about not wanting to return to China."

"These words were said by General Manager Yang, and he made no attempt to hide it, admitting it everywhere he went."

"If you feel wronged and think that General Manager Yang is targeting you, that's fine."

"But even if we lose the Ninth Department, there are still other departments, other universities, and other research institutes."

"China has more than just nine departments."

"Right?"

Wang Zihao was speechless.

"The reason you want to join the Nine Departments is because you have ulterior motives; you want to uncover the secrets of the Nine Departments, right?"

Zhang Chao sneered, "So don't use these things to whitewash your purpose; it will only make you look foolish."

Wang Zihao bit his lip, wanting to refute but unable to utter a word.

"One last thing, what did you say?"

"Science knows no borders?"

How much alcohol did you drink to say something like that?

Wang Zihao looked up again, his eyes filled with anger. "I didn't drink alcohol. This is what Western scholars said; it's the crystallization of human wisdom."

"Crystallize you m"

Zhang Chao looked at Wang Zihao speechlessly, "You didn't drink alcohol, you drank fake alcohol."

"Still believing that nonsense from foreigners."

"Hehehe, go ask anyone on the street what they call foreigners?"

Jiang Han chuckled and added, "Foreign devils."

Zhang Chao laughed along, "Did you hear that? Foreign devils."

You believe what the Japanese say?

At this point, Zhang Chao slammed his hand on the table and said, "Let me tell you, scientists, first of all, there are four people."

"Humans are not born from stones; they are born of mothers and fathers, and they have families and countries."

"Without a country, where is a home? Without a home, where do scientists come from?"

"So what foreigners say is the truth?"

"That's just to fool you idiots, to lure you over there, that's what they shouted."

"Forget it, you're just an idiot."

After speaking, Zhang Chao threw the documents in front of him directly to Wang Zihao, "These are the documents our foreign trade personnel contacted in Hong Kong and Britain, and they told us about your situation."

"They said they have absolutely no information about you."

"In other words, you're not even a person they know."

"What a fool, he's been sold out and he's still helping them count the money."

Wang Zihao stared wide-eyed at the folder in front of him. He opened it, first glancing at the official seal, then browsing the contents.

He slumped into the chair, completely limp.

"Impossible, impossible."

“Professor Adam didn’t say that, Principal William, yes, that’s not what they said.”

Seeing Wang Zihao's self-destructive behavior, Jiang Han and Zhang Chao shook their heads, then got up and walked out.

"This poor child, he's become stupid from studying too much."

Jiang Han sneered, then prepared to leave.

"Wait, wait!"

Wang Zihao's angry voice came from behind, and the two walked to the door and smiled at each other.
