Chapter 311 Coincidence and Accident
Chapter 311 Coincidence and Accident
Guan Lili sat in the company's office, staring at the densely packed tables on the screen, feeling dizzy. She shook her head and forced herself to focus on her work. But for some reason, she always felt that something was going to happen today, and her heart was in turmoil.
"Xiao Zhao, do you feel that the atmosphere in the office today is a bit strange?" Lily asked, looking up. Xiao Zhao beside her was fighting a battle of wits with the printer.
"Oh, forget it, this broken printer has a paper jam again!" Xiao Zhao responded while slapping the machine. "Strange? I just feel like this machine is going to fight with me!"
Lily smiled helplessly. Suddenly, the phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.
"Lily, the boss is looking for you." The moment Lily picked up the phone, she felt her heart skip a beat.
She hurried into her boss's office, praying that nothing serious would happen. But when she opened the door, she was stunned.
In addition to the boss, there was a mysterious man in a black suit in the boss' office, with a meaningful smile on his face. Lily's mind flashed through countless possibilities. Was the company going to lay off employees? Or was this man here to investigate her work?
"Lily, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Zhou. He has just been transferred from the headquarters." The boss introduced, with a hint of strange excitement in his tone.
"Hello, Miss Guan, I've heard of your name for a long time." Mr. Zhou nodded slightly, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Lily responded politely, but she felt that there was an indescribable sense of mystery in Mr. Zhou's eyes.
"Lily, Mr. Zhou is here to help our company expand new projects. You will have many opportunities to cooperate in the future." The boss patted her shoulder and said, "Come on, do a good job."
Lily nodded, but she felt that Mr. Zhou was definitely not simple. For the rest of the day, Lily was thinking about this new mysterious man, but she couldn't tell what made her uneasy.
When Lily got home in the evening and was about to relax, she found an unsigned letter under the door. She opened the envelope and found a note saying "Beware of Mr. Zhou".
"What the hell?" Lily stared at the note in surprise. What was going on? Was it a prank? Or did Mr. Zhou really have some unspeakable secret?
The next morning, Lily walked into the company with a lot of questions in her mind, only to find that the entire office was in an uproar. It turned out that a bizarre theft had occurred in the bank next door to the company last night, and all the surveillance videos had been mysteriously erased, leaving the police with nothing.
"Lily, don't you think it's strange? This happened next to our company, and the bank is right next to the conference room where you talked with Mr. Zhou yesterday!" Xiao Zhao came over and said in a low voice.
Lily was startled, and quickly replayed yesterday's scene in her mind. Could it be that Mr. Zhou had something to do with this? Impossible?
At this moment, Mr. Zhou appeared at the door of the office. He seemed to notice everyone's gaze and smiled slightly: "Hello everyone, I have to go to the company headquarters today. You can contact me anytime if you have anything."
After saying that, he turned and left, but Lily couldn't help but follow him out, wanting to see what he was going to do. She followed Mr. Zhou all the way until she saw him walk into a luxury hotel and enter a secret box.
Lily wanted to turn back, but curiosity overcame reason, and she quietly walked to the door of the box, trying to eavesdrop on the conversation inside. As a result, she heard Mr. Zhou whispered: "Yes, the plan has begun, and they have no suspicion at all."
Lily's heart tightened and she left quickly. She knew she had come across something she shouldn't know. But what should she do now? Tell her boss? Or call the police? But she had no evidence!
After returning to the company, Lily tried to stay calm, but she couldn't calm down. She took out the mysterious note and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, she found some words on the back of the note. She carefully scratched it with her fingernails and found that it was a string of addresses.
"What is this?" Lily looked at the address and felt a strong urge to find out what it was.
The next day, Lily found a hidden alley according to the address, and inside it turned out to be a seemingly ordinary bookstore. She walked in, and a scent of ancient books hit her face. The owner of the bookstore was an old man who looked a little weird. He squinted his eyes and looked at Lily, then smiled slightly: "Miss Guan, you are finally here."
"How do you know my name?" Lily was shocked. Could this also be a trap?
"Don't be nervous, I was recommended by your old friend." The old man smiled and took out a delicate little box from behind the counter and handed it to her, "This is for you."
Lily hesitated for a moment, but still took the box. Inside was a seemingly ordinary ring, but as soon as Lily put it on, she felt a warm power instantly surge into her body.
"There's something strange about this ring!" Lily secretly exclaimed, what on earth is this? She was about to ask, but the old man motioned her not to speak and just nodded slightly.
Back at the company, Lily put the ring on her hand calmly and found that when she looked at Mr. Zhou, she could actually feel a mysterious power hidden in him. Could it be that this ring could see through his disguise?
"Ms. Guan, let's talk." Suddenly, Mr. Zhou appeared in front of Lily, and he seemed to have noticed something strange.
Lily's heart tightened, knowing that the other party might have discovered something. She decided to counter the move: "Okay, I was just thinking about talking to you."
In the following conversation, Mr. Zhou really began to test Lily, but she used the power of the ring to cleverly avoid all traps.
That night, on her way home, Lily received a text message from an unknown number: "You already know too much, be careful about your safety."
Lily was shocked and finally realized that she was caught in a huge conspiracy. What should she do? This dangerous game has just begun, and her adventurous spirit has been completely awakened.
