Chapter 258 Everything Ends

Director Xia asked Nan Zhuren, "Is the office you mentioned also located inside the school?"

"Here I am."

"Wait until the comrade I called arrives, then we'll go together."

Even with so many people present, Lin Lilin was extremely weak.

But Director Xia still did not easily transfer Lin Lilin.

It wasn't until the "beep beep beep beep" sound came from outside that a group of men, whose attire was extremely intimidating, entered.

Director Xia then stepped back a few steps and led Nan Zhuren toward Lin Lilin's office.

The crowd that had wanted to join in the fun was left behind, but now it was too late to do so.

……

At this point, the supervisory meeting could no longer continue.

However, most of them had already given up on continuing to attend the meeting.

Several company representatives huddled together, whispering among themselves.

"Did anyone record Mr. Nan's actions just now?"

"No, with Director Xia watching, who would dare?"

Some people expressed skepticism: "Are micro-expressions really that powerful? I feel like it's a hoax?"

"Can you really fool people into working at Jiangnan University's Psychology Department and even in front of Director Xia?"

That statement makes sense.

The delegates fell silent for a moment, exchanging glances as if they were all thinking the same thing.

Does anyone know how to contact Teacher Nan?

Finally, the youngest-looking representative couldn't hold back any longer: "It's not about poaching talent, it's just about inviting them over to do a few external training sessions or lectures, or occasionally to act as external helpers."

No one answered, but the representatives exchanged glances and knew the answer in their hearts.

At the same time, he began to be wary.

"He's my employee!" Suddenly, a voice rang out behind them.

"You are... Boss Huo?"

After recognizing the visitors, the representatives breathed a sigh of relief and then put on enthusiastic expressions.

"If I remember correctly, Mr. Huo's consulting firm was only recently established, right?"

"I had heard before that Teacher Weng Pingting was in charge, but I didn't expect that Teacher Nan would be working under her now?"

Howard snuck in today specifically to seek a partnership.

His emotional journey today is also extremely complex.

He was dissatisfied when he saw Weng Pingting, went up to greet her but was ignored.

He communicated with representatives from various parties, but none of them paid attention to him, which left him disappointed.

When Nan Zhuren ousted Lin Lilin from power and then began making outrageous statements, he was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Now that the matter has been settled, and after hearing the reactions of other company representatives to Nan Zhuren...

Howard realized he had an opportunity.

The former boss of Nan Zhuren quickly began discussing business cooperation with the representatives of these companies.

At least on the surface, they were in a warm and enthusiastic atmosphere.

As for his old friend Lin Lilin? Howard no longer cares.

Not far from Howard, Weng Pingting watched him with a cold smile.

"Is it him? The one who tricked you from Beidu to Jiangdu back then?" Bai Qinghua suddenly said from the side.

Weng Pingting almost snapped: "What do you mean by lying? I weighed the options myself at the time, and I really couldn't stay in Beidu any longer..."

Bai Qinghua teased his apprentice, but his eyes were fixed on Howard's direction.

His eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems he's still using your name to swindle people. And he's dragged that Nan student into it too."

Weng Pingting glanced at the expressions of the company representatives and sneered.

"Never mind him."

She strode outside: "I'm going to follow them to find Nan Zhuren, are you coming?"

...In Lin Lilin's office in the Psychology Department's teaching building.

The uncles in the hats looked a bit strange.

Initially, it was our own bureau chief who came to attend a meeting that supposedly could find more psychological counseling experts for the bureau, but then he called people to arrest people.

This is barely considered normal—after working in this line of work for a long time, you often find yourself pressing a button on someone's hand without even knowing what situation it might be.

Now that the person has been caught, instead of bringing them back to the station first, they've brought along... what could be called a witness, and are going through the evidence all this way.

This is barely considered normal—after all, once you have a clue, you need to follow up quickly, because who knows what might happen if things change over time.

but--

Why were there subtle signs at the scene that the witness was starting to take the lead?

Director Xia was unaware of the doubts his subordinates harbored.

He squinted at the young consultant, trying to get a better look this time.

As soon as Nan Zhuren entered the room, his eyes were fixed on Lin Lilin's face.

Without asking any questions, he walked to Lin Lilin's desk on his own.

Nan Zhuren's hand first touched the tabletop, then slid left in Lin Lilin's eyes, and then slowly slid right, stopping at the locked first drawer.

Is this it? — No.

Why not?

Director Xia's eyes involuntarily shifted from Nan Zhuren to Lin Lilin's face.

He didn't see anything.

Nan Zhuren moved her hand to the second drawer: "Is it here—no."

Then came the third floor: "Is this the place—that's it!"

How come it's right again?!

Nan Zhuren looked at the cabinet and saw that it was secured with a fairly common three-digit combination lock.

Director Xia saw it too.

At this point, you could simply pull off the lock or even dismantle the desk altogether.

The methods are very diverse.

He was about to speak.

“Let’s go one by one. First up is the first one: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5—okay, it’s 5.”

Nan Zhuren stared at Lin Lilin: "Then the second one: 1, 2, 3—okay, it's 3."

"Finally, the third one: 1, 2, 3, 4... 9—okay, it's 9."

As Nan Zhuren finished speaking...

With a "click," the lock opened.

Nan Zhuren pulled open the drawer and easily saw a small box inside.

The box also had the same lock on it. It must be said that Lin Lilin was quite cautious in this regard.

"Let's do it again: 1, 2, 3—it's 3."

"...It's 1."

"...It's 5."

With another "click," Nan Zhuren, a victorious smile on his face, pulled a small notebook out of the box.

He quickly flipped through a few pages and nodded in satisfaction: "Director Xia, this is Lin Lilin's ledger... Hmm? Director Xia, what's wrong?"

Director Xia suddenly snapped out of his daze and closed his unconsciously half-open jaw.

"No...it's okay."

"Thank you for your help."

He said this sincerely.

Unlike Director Xia, the two men in hats behind Lin Lilin, who were suppressing him, lost all control of their expressions.

"Hey..." one of them nudged his colleague gently, "Which school did you graduate from? The Public Security University? The Criminal Investigation Academy?"

The colleague who was touched stiffly shook his head: "Even the Public Security University and the Criminal Police Academy... I've never heard of them teaching this."
