Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

Then she became the target of everyone's criticism. Although she was able to clear herself of any involvement, there was no doubt that she would be targeted by Na Du Tong...

Chaos.

Everything is in chaos.

While Zhang Chulan's fishing and Ma Xianhong's disobedience certainly contributed to all of this, the most important factor was Zhou Fengliu.

Zhou Fengliu was like a large hand that suddenly barged in, turning her originally methodical plans into a mess.

...

P.S.: Just wishing for everything as usual. Goodnight and sweet dreams to all my godfathers!

Chapter 242 The way Ma Xianhong was dealt with... (First update)

After several hours of driving, the sky began to lighten, and a ray of sunshine slowly rose from the horizon, casting its warm rays upon the city's skyscrapers.

The convoy escorting Ma Xianhong entered the capital almost simultaneously, heading towards the headquarters of Nadutong.

Yes.

No team was lost...

The anticipated carjacking or attack did not occur. The NaDuTong team remained on high alert throughout the journey and did not notice anything unusual. The convoy arrived safely at the NaDuTong headquarters building.

Zhao Fangxu personally led a team to wait downstairs at the headquarters. His tightly furrowed brows relaxed somewhat after seeing that none of the NaDuTong personnel escorting the vehicle were injured.

He first examined the body of Chai Yan, the tiger-like master of the Ten Elders, confirming that it was indeed Chai Yan. He adjusted his glasses and spoke to Chairman Su, who was following behind him:

"Notify Ruhu to come and collect the body..."

"Mm." Chairman Su nodded.

"Boss." Xu Si walked over with Zhou Fengliu and Zhang Chulan and greeted them.

"Thank you for your hard work... Let's go inside and talk."

"it is good."

Following Zhao Fangxu's steps, the group arrived at a small conference room in the headquarters.

Ma Xianhong was then detained in a specially designed room. After a brief examination by medical staff to confirm that there were no problems, additional personnel were assigned to guard him.

In a small meeting room.

Zhao Fangxu confirmed with Lu Linglong and Lu Lin that the tiger-like master Chai Yan and others had indeed committed suicide, which puzzled Zhao Fangxu greatly.

Why are these people associated with Ma Xianhong?

The three people's files were still on his desk at that moment.

Besides Ru Hu and Xiao Xiao, Liu Zi is also a naturally gifted extraordinary person whose records are available everywhere.

This person's real name is Jiang Liu. He awakened his ability at the age of nineteen. The Qi energy in his body generates high heat and high pressure. Once his emotions fluctuate severely, he will lose control and explode.

The company had sent someone to contact him before. Jiang Liu entered the Dark Fortress for training, and after two and a half years, he was able to skillfully control his abilities, so the company let him leave the Dark Fortress.

Later, it seems that this person was cheated on by his girlfriend, so he used his ability to burn her face and then disappeared without a trace.

...

"Xiao Zhou, Chu Lan... when you were fighting those people, did you notice anything unusual?" Zhao Fangxu asked after a moment of silence.

Upon hearing Zhao Fangxu's question, Zhou Fengliu, who hadn't slept all night, yawned, glanced at Zhang Chulan, and replied:

"There are some unusual things... They're unusually stubborn, inexplicably determined to kill Zhang Chulan... It's as if they've been brainwashed and hypnotized by someone..."

Listening to Zhou Fengliu's description, Zhao Fangxu gently tapped the wooden armrest of the chair with his right hand, as if he was thinking about something.

If that's the case...

Could he interpret this as the mastermind behind Ma Xianhong possessing some kind of brainwashing ability?

...

The breakthrough in all of this still lies with Ma Xianhong, but fortunately, Ma Xianhong was brought back to the company.

"Mr. Zhao... I'd like to ask, what are your plans for dealing with Ma Xianhong?"

Zhang Chulan stepped forward and asked a question.

He orchestrated the whole "Ma-Catching Operation," and he also proposed planting a seed of doubt in Ma Xianhong's mind, which Zhao Fangxu chose to cooperate with.

Originally, the company would have dropped the warrant for Ma Xianhong's arrest if he had admitted that he had not harmed any company employees or participated in the ensuing conflict.

But now... with his assassination, everything seems to have subtly changed.

"What do you think?" Zhao Fangxu asked Zhang Chulan.

"I...I'm just a nobody, how dare I presume to guess what you big leaders are thinking..." Zhang Chulan said.

"Just say it, I'm telling you to..."

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's words, Zhang Chulan stroked his chin and said directly:

"Since the leader has put it that way, then I'll give my opinion..."

"I don't think the assassination has much to do with Ma Xianhong... This ruthless approach, leaving no survivors, is more like the style of the group that kidnapped Ma Xianhong back then..."

"Regarding the handling of Ma Xianhong, I still have the same idea as before. If you are more ruthless than him, he will be even more ruthless... Rather than forcing Ma Xianhong to reveal clues by torture, it is better to use a gentler approach and continue to strengthen the gap between him and the mastermind behind the scenes."

"This will break through his psychological defenses and get him to confess voluntarily..."

Zhang Chulan's approach to Ma Xianhong was gentle.

Although they might not get clues immediately, they can win over Ma Xianhong.

Compared to his method, the company could certainly choose a more radical approach, such as hiring members of the Lü family to forcibly collect memories using the Soul-Clearing Technique to obtain the desired clues.

However, this method is inhumane, and something has recently happened to the Lü family. The clan leader, Lü Ci, has summoned all the Lü family members who are away from home back to the village. The company may not be able to get the Lü family members out at this critical juncture.

...

"Then who do you think should use your so-called appeasement methods to deal with Ma Xianhong?" Zhao Fangxu asked, following Zhang Chulan's train of thought.

"Well..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan glanced at everyone present, and finally focused his gaze on Zhao Fangxu.

"Well... I'm afraid you'll have to do it. You're our leader..."

As soon as Zhang Chulan finished speaking, Chairman Su knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing her facing Zhao Fangxu, he said:

"Mr. Zhao, Ma Xianhong has woken up..."

"..."

Zhou Fengliu's fighting style was quite powerful. Old Ma, who was forced to fight by Zhou Fengliu, has been unconscious since last night, which shows how determined Zhou Fengliu was to keep Ma Xianhong.

"I understand..." Zhao Fangxu nodded, then stood up.

"You all rest for a while, I'll go see this young man."

After saying that, he left the conference room with Chairman Su.

A moment later.

Zhao Fangxu met Ma Xianhong, who had just woken up, in that specially made room.

At this moment, Ma Xianhong's head was buzzing. After glancing around at the unfamiliar surroundings, he realized that he might have been captured and taken to Nadutong.

He had just stood up when the door to the room slowly opened, and a well-off old man came into view.

"You must be Ma Xianhong?"

"you are?"

"I am Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of NaDuTong..."

Upon hearing the old man in front of him claim to be the chairman of Na Du Tong, Ma Xianhong instantly sobered up, and his anger flared up as well.

"So you're the one in charge of everything? Fine, you've been wanting to see me, haven't you? Here I am. Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

Ma Xianhong's words were full of gunpowder, as if looking at him for too long would cause an explosion.

"Young man... don't get so angry. I only wanted to see you to understand some things."

Chapter 243 Zhao Fangxu: Little Ma, your awareness needs improvement~ (Second update)

Do you understand the situation?

Hearing what Zhao Fangxu said, Ma Xianhong couldn't believe a word of it.

"Give up, I'm telling you this: I, Ma Xianhong, would rather jump off this building and die, or be slapped to death by that inhuman Zhou Fengliu, than reveal a single piece of information to you!"

Ma Xianhong's uncooperative attitude did not surprise Zhao Fangxu, after all, he already knew about Ma Xianhong's personality from Zhang Chulan.

“I didn’t ask you to reveal any information... I just wanted to take you to identify the body,” Zhao Fangxu said.

"Identifying the body?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Xianhong raised an eyebrow, his expression somewhat puzzled: "What corpse are you looking for?"

"Just follow me..."

As Zhao Fangxu spoke, he walked out, while Ma Xianhong, who remained standing there, had a series of people he knew flash through his mind.

Identifying a body at this critical juncture... could it be one of his former exceptional talents?

With doubts in his heart, Ma Xianhong followed.

Looking at Zhao Fangxu, who seemed powerless to even kill a chicken, Ma Xianhong had no intention of harming him.

After all, Zhao Fangxu, as the chairman of NaDuTong, is highly conscious of his position. If he were to attack the chairman of NaDuTong, the nature of the matter would change...

Ma Xianhong may not be very bright, but he's not stupid.

Before long, he arrived at the body identification area and saw three male corpses.

Looking at the three corpses in front of him, which were both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar, Ma Xianhong was completely dumbfounded at this moment.

Along the way, he thought about many people connected to him, but... he never thought it would be these three!

Chai Yan, Xiao Xiao, Jiang Liu!
