Ma Wencai stood there, his face turning pale and then flushed. He hadn't expected the people in his workplace to be so tough.

When he was in Daxing, he took advantage of his brother-in-law being the boss and smuggled a lot of things from his slush fund home—cigarettes, alcohol, candy, tea, anything of value—he stole it countless times.

Even if someone sensed something was wrong, they all kept quiet and didn't say a single word of objection.

Now look at this group of people, they're all acting like they've been injected with adrenaline, some banging on the table, others rolling up their sleeves.

Ma Wencai's gaze slowly shifted to Chang Kun, his teeth itching with hatred.

It was him, he was the one who started the trouble!

We haven't even settled the score with him for the beating he got in the broadcasting room, and now he's stirring things up again.

Ma Wencai was consumed by rage; his face turned as red as a pig's liver, his eyes bulged out, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.

He suddenly stepped forward, knocking over a stool, which crashed to the ground with a thud, but he didn't care.

"Who do you think you are?" Ma Wencai pointed at Chang Kun, his voice shrill and cracking. "Nobody in Daxing dares to talk to me like that! You're just a delivery boy!"

Before he could finish speaking, he turned back and shouted to the men behind him, "Guys, let's go! Take care of him today! I'll cover for you if anything happens!"

Those people were transferred from Daxing with him, and they had received many favors from him, such as cigarettes and alcohol, several times over.

At this moment, when he called out to them, they looked at each other, their faces showing hesitation. But under Ma Wencai's piercing gaze, they hesitantly took a step forward.

Seeing that they didn't make a move, Ma Wencai stamped his feet in frustration and shouted again.

"Go! What are you all standing there for?"

He gritted his teeth and rushed forward first.

This guy in the police force hasn't been working for nothing; he's got some skills. He suddenly raised his knee and aimed it hard at Chang Kun's groin.

This attack was both sudden and brutal; if an ordinary person had been hit squarely, they would have collapsed on the spot.

Anyway, with his brother-in-law Sima Bin backing him up, what is he afraid of?

Even if this guy surnamed Chang gets seriously injured, does your brother-in-law think he can just stand by and do nothing?!

But before his knees even touched Chang Kun's clothes, he was sent flying.

Chang Kun slightly tilted his body, reached down with his right hand, hooked his calf, and with a quick pull and swing, the movement was so fast that the people around didn't even see it.

Ma Wencai was thrown into the air, flying horizontally like a rag doll, and crashed solidly into the wall next to him.

With a muffled thud, he slid down the wall and collapsed against its base, his glasses flying far away.

This time, the blow was as easy as hanging a painting; he didn't even utter a sound before passing out.

Monkey King leaned against the wall, arms crossed, a smirk playing on his lips, and chuckled, "He asked for it!"

Xiao Yu was also smiling, her expression clearly indicating that she had expected this and was not surprised at all.

He knew Chang Kun's skills all too well. Even though he had won awards in military competitions, he was still far inferior to Chang Kun.

The cafeteria was silent for a moment, then erupted into chaos.

Cheers, table-slapping, and laughter mingled together.

Before the cheers had even subsided, someone stepped forward.

It was Old Zhao from the dispatch room. He had worked at the company for most of his life and rarely spoke.

He walked over to Chang Kun and said in a low voice.

"Xiao Chang, you've already hit him, but you haven't gotten any evidence of him stealing. What if he turns around and accuses you of hitting him without cause? Won't that cause you trouble?"

The people in the cafeteria exchanged glances, their expressions changing slightly.

"When Section Chief Zhang was in charge, did anything ever go missing from the unit?"

The crowd shook their heads.

Chang Kun then asked, "Have there ever been any errors in the accounts of the slush fund before?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Chang Kun glanced at Ma Wencai lying against the wall: "The moment this kid arrived, the meat was gone. Who else could it be but him?"

"But what if he steals those two pig legs, eats them that very night, and throws the bone scraps in the trash? Where will we find evidence then?"

"If there's no evidence and he denies everything, what can we do?"

As soon as he said that, the buzzing in the cafeteria started again.

Some people frowned, some cursed, and some slammed their fists on the table, saying, "We can't just let it go like this."

Sister Wu pushed her way through the crowd: "Check the accounts! Check the accounts of the slush fund!"

"If the meat can't be found, surely the bill can be found too! Let's check everything off item by item, and see what he has to say then!"

Aunt Song nodded in agreement: "Yes, let's check the accounts. When Section Chief Zhang was in charge, the accounts for the slush fund were posted every month, so everyone knew what was going on. Since the change of leadership, we haven't seen the account books. Today is a good day, since everyone's here, let's sort out the accounts."

Everyone echoed this sentiment.

The account books were brought over and spread out on the table in the cafeteria.

The results came out in less than fifteen minutes.

Something is missing, and it's not just a small part.

The numbers on the books didn't match the actual items in the warehouse. Besides the two pig legs, there were also dozens of kilograms of rice, a jar of peanut oil, and two boxes of eggs that were missing.

If you flip back further, you'll find tobacco, alcohol, sugar, tea, and other miscellaneous items, which add up to a considerable amount.

"So many things are missing in just a few days!"

"That son of a bitch is too arrogant!"

"These are all our benefits; he dares to take them, he doesn't respect us at all!"

The people in the cafeteria were in an uproar.

People were banging on the table, cursing, and demanding to reason with the section chief; it was all a chaotic scene.

Sister Wu put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Even if the section chief were standing here, this matter couldn't be resolved if the company property was stolen!"

Several people nearby nodded in agreement.

"Even if he ate everything, how could his family not know? Ask his wife, and they'll surely get the truth out of him."

"Yes, find his wife! You can hide this from his workplace, but not from his family."

No sooner had he finished speaking than someone rushed in from outside, panting heavily. He leaned against the doorframe and took several breaths before he could speak.

"I've called the police! The police station is nearby, they'll be here soon!"

The cafeteria was even more lively now.

"It's quite unusual for railway police to lose something and then have to call in other police departments to investigate."

"It may be strange, but it's better than losing something and never finding it again."

"What's this called again... the party involved recusing themselves from the investigation!"

"Railway police are police, but when the local police station comes, they won't recognize your identity. They'll investigate and question you as they see fit; they won't give face to anyone!"

The police arrived faster than expected, with four officers arriving at once. Knowing that this was a matter for a neighboring unit, they took it very seriously.

The people in the cafeteria automatically made way for them.

The police officer asked about the situation, looked at the ledgers, and went to the small warehouse. When he came back, his expression was not quite right.

One of them walked up to Ma Wencai, who was squatting in the corner, glanced at him, and didn't say much. He then turned to discuss with his colleagues, and one of them rode off on his bicycle to fetch Ma Wencai's wife.

Instead of seeing Ma Wencai's wife, they saw Sima Bin return.

Upon seeing Ma Wencai slumped against the wall, they immediately exploded!
