Chapter 467 Beat the Grasses to Alert the Snake

Yi Yuntian looks at the colorful fruit on the plate. He turns to look at Leng Weiwei with a miserable face, “Weiwei, when will you treat me as kindly as Rui treats Ning?”

Leng Weiwei rolls her eyes at him, “President Yi, we are here to talk about serious issues.”

“Well.” Yi Yuntian shakes his head and says, “Rui, seemingly, it is still a long way to go for me to have a happy life…”

Xia Ning looks at them carefully in surprise, wondering whether her eldest brother really likes Chief Editor Leng.

Does he sincerely like her?

Yi Yunrui passes a strawberry to his wife. He smiles when hearing his brother’s annoyance. He says, “You haven’t succeeded yet. The efforts you have made are not enough.”

Yi Yuntian lifts to look at Yi Yunrui with confusion.

Is Yi Yunrui admonishing him or teasing him?

“Not all women are easily available.” Yi Yunrui continues, “Brother, you have enjoyed your romance for many years, haven’t you? Seemingly, God is not happy with that.”

Yi Yuntian slightly twitches his lips, wondering when his uncommunicative little brother becomes a mean talker.

He doesn’t help him. Instead, he teases him in front of other people…

“Ahem!” Yi Yuntian makes an uneasy cough and collects himself, “I am here with Weiwei to tell you one thing.”

Not waiting for Yi Yuntian to continue his speech, Leng Weiwei opens her computer and turns the screen to Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning, “About the Tang Qieying case, Yi Yuntian and I had an investigation in private. We checked all the monitoring videos in the last two months. We found someone suspicious. Look at the screen.”

Leng Weiwei points at the screen, “There are three minutes missing in this video from the Editorial Office on this day. Look, the time shown here is five past eight while the next second it turns to be nine past eight. The screen doesn’t show any interval, but the time jumps.”

Xia Ning looks at the screen. As Leng Weiwei says, in the last second, the time is five past eight while in the next second, it is nine past eight. There is some problem in the time shown, but nothing seems wrong in the scenes. She asks, “Can there be anything wrong with the camera?”

“We have checked the record of that day. The camera was in normal operation. However, it seems that someone has done something to the video.”

Xia Ning secretly admires. They checked all the monitoring videos in the last two months. That must take a lot of time. And they still found this difference. She can imagine how carefully they did that.

“Ning, look.” Leng Weiwei changes to another scene, “This is from the camera outside the Editorial Office. You didn’t see anyone inside, but the sound of closing the door was recorded here. Look at the back of this person. Who do you think she is?”

Xia Ning looks at the screen carefully. She brightens her eyes, “She is Wan Liqing!”

“Yes. It is her. Obviously, something was done to the camera inside the office. However, the sound of closing the door was recorded though it was very low. At that time, there were few people in the building. And during that time, she was the only one who went past the Editorial Office. It can be confirmed that she is suspicious.”

Xia Ning nods to agree. She checks the date and time at the right bottom again. She finds that it was the day before they published the report for the exclusive interview about Tang Qieying. Therefore, it means…

“The video in the QR code is from Wan Liqing?” Xia Ning turns to ask Leng Weiwei.

“It can’t be confirmed with the video only. We may only find that Wan Liqing is suspicious. Next, we may need Commander Yi’s help.” Leng Weiwei turns to Yi Yunrui, “Commander Yi’s subordinate Zhang Hai is very good at dealing with computers. We want to ask him to check the operation record of the computer in the Editorial Office to figure out whether someone has done anything to it. It will be good if we can find some real evidence to prove that it is Wan Liqing. Once it is proved to be her responsibility, it will become easy for us to go ahead to clear Ning from the case.”

Yi Yunrui thinks for a while, “It is easy for me to send Zhang Hai to check the data. However, the computer keeps the confidential internal information of World Era Weekly. If it is learned by other people, it doesn’t seem OK. In addition, if we do this, we will be beating the grasses to alert the snake.”

“As to what you are concerned about, I have checked with the headquarters. They responded that it would be fine as long as the army promised to keep everything confidential.”

Yi Yunrui thinks for a while, “OK. I will discuss with Commander Xie and issue a confidential agreement for World Era Weekly and the military department in C City to sign.”

“Commander Yi, thank you for your cooperation. As to the other concern,” Leng Weiwei slightly lifts her lips, “what we want is to alert the snake by beating the grasses.”

“That’s right.” Yi Yuntian continues Leng Weiwei’s words, “When I asked Weiwei to investigate this issue, I thought about that. Then, I realized that if it was done by someone from World Era Weekly, no matter how, we would alert him or her. Since we can’t avoid that, we may just do it openly. We will see during the time, who will have unusual reactions. Especially Wan Liqing, we will know how she will react.”

“Did Wan Liqing do anything abnormal recently?” Xia Ning asks.

“Temporarily, she is calm.” Leng Weiwei says, “However, I vaguely feel something wrong. Now, we will wait for Zhang Hai to show up in World Era Weekly. We will see what she will do.”

After they make the decision, Yi Yunrui takes out his phone and dials Zhang Hai’s number, “Zhang Hai, come here within five minutes.”

It is in World Era Weekly.

Wan Liqing holds a cup of strong tea. She slightly frowns and bites her lower lips.

She heard that some people came to take away all the monitoring videos in the company two days ago. She vaguely feels something wrong.

She wonders whether it has anything to do with Tang Qieying’s case.

Tang Qieying’s case was spread some time ago. World Era Weekly was considered to be responsible for that. The videos were taken away…Seemingly, someone is investigating the case in private.

She thought of the possibility and had got rid of the videos two months ago. She doesn’t think that she will be found out.

Even if she is to be found out, she will have left.

Since they have started some actions, she will also need to do something for herself.

Thinking about this, she dials someone’s phone, “It is time to take action. Now. Do it well. I will give you what you deserve.”

In order to avoid being investigated, she had arranged someone in the Editorial Office two months ago. When it is necessary, all the information on the computers in the Editorial Office will be destroyed.

Even if it is suspicious, when the information is destroyed, no one can find her out.

Five minutes later, Wan Liqing’s office phone rings. The IT department calls.

“Director Wan, I am the supervisor of the IT department. The computers in the company are attacked by a virus. We need to temporarily shut off all the network connections. So, please turn off your computer first. Thank you.”

Wan Liqing slightly lifts her lips, “OK.”

Wan Liqing turns off the computer and gives a sigh of relief. This time, she wonders who can find anything against her!

When Zhang Hai and Leng Weiwei get to World Era Weekly, they find that almost seventy percent of the computers in the media building is turned off. And the network connections are shut off. Leng Weiwei feels shocked in her heart. World Era Weekly is always in the frontier of trends and information. It seldom shuts off the network connections. Even electricity cut-off is not allowed to happen!

In the last ten years, there was no record of electricity cut-off in the media building at all.

Her assistant runs to her in a hurry, “Chief Editor…”

“What’s happening?”

“The people from the IT department said they found a virus in the computers and need to shut off the network connections…”

“When did that happen?”

“A few minutes ago.”

“Have they found out the source of the virus?”

Her assistant shakes her head, “They are still investigating. Everything is in a mess.”

Leng Weiwei frowns, “Nonsense! Big scale virus attacks never happened in the last over ten years in World Era Weekly. What are the IT Department, the Engineering Department and the Maintenance Department doing?”

The assistant finds Chief Editor Leng furious. She is scared and dares not say a word.

“Chief Editor Leng.” At this time, Zhang Hai asks, “Can I help them deal with the issue?”

Leng Weiwei thinks for a while. The virus issue can’t be postponed. Just now, Yi Yunrui confirmed that the army will keep everything confidential. Therefore, she says decisively, “Yes. Please.”

Wan Liqing puts down the cup. She looks at the coffee shop opposite the street. She never likes drinking coffee. But she suddenly has the desire to visit the shop.

Xia Ning likes cappuccino most. If she can’t be clear from Tang Qieying’s case, seemingly, she won’t be able to enjoy the flavor of cappuccino in a very long time.

Thinking about this, Wan Liqing puts on a smile of victory.

After getting rid of Xia Ning, her next target is Gu Luan!

Even if she has to use some tricks, she will insist on getting Gu Luan.

The man may not love her, but he is not allowed to leave her!

At this time, Wan Liqing’s phone rings. When she sees the number, she screws her eyes. She presses the answer button and asks in displeasure, “Try not to call this number after you finish your task! I won’t pay you less… What? Someone from the army visits the media building? What are they doing?”

When she hears the response, Wan Liqing turns pale at once!

Someone from the military region…is helping deal with the computer virus!

Her phone slips to the desk. Wan Liqing feels so frightened that her hands tremble.

How can people from the military region visit the media building? And they come so soon.”

Can what she has done be found out?

Thinking about this, Wan Liqing stands up all of a sudden. She has the urge to rush out of the office!

Wait!

If what she has done is revealed, people from the military region won’t be only dealing with the computer issue now. Since they only deal with the computer, she still has some time to take action.

She still has some time to get away from it successfully.

At this time, her phone rings again. Wan Liqing trembles!

It is Leng Weiwei.

An ominous feeling pops up in Wan Liqing’s heart. She feels a chill on her back.

She wonders whether she should answer the phone or not.

Wan Liqing hesitates for a while. She takes some deep breaths to calm herself down. Then, she presses the answer button, “Chief Editor Leng…”

“Director Wan, are you in your office? Please come here. I am in the Editorial Office.”

Hearing the words Editorial Office, as if she hears thunder from the sky, Wan Liqing is shocked blankly at once!
