Chapter 11 The Attack

"Enter!"

Zhou Wei and Lin Yuan exchanged a glance, then Zhou Wei called out towards the door.

"Team Leader Zhou, and Specialist Lin Yuan, we are employees of the internal audit team of the Market Development Department. We need Specialist Lin Yuan's cooperation on some matters."

The door opened, and two men in uniforms and black masks walked in and said...

"Do you have the necessary paperwork?"

Zhou Wei lowered his eyes and asked calmly.

"Of course, you can take a look."

As the man spoke, he sent a notification face-to-face to both of their terminals.

Lin Yuan quickly scanned the area.

The contents of the report were roughly about receiving a tip from an insider that Lin Yuan was suspected of a series of serious violations of discipline in this development project, and that Lin Yuan was required to cooperate with the internal audit team.

At the bottom is the signature of Yamada, the deputy director of the market development department, and copies were sent to other leaders and several deputy directors.

"You all go out first, I need to check the situation."

Zhou Wei addressed the newcomer.

"This... Team Leader Zhou, this is a document personally signed by Minister Yamada. It needs to be implemented as soon as possible. Please cooperate."

"Didn't you hear me tell you?!"

Zhou Wei suddenly stood up and looked down at the two of them.

His previously sorrowful expression suddenly transformed into a fierce and wrathful aura.

He spoke in a low voice, but each word was enunciated clearly:

"I need to confirm with Minister Spear that if you can't wait, you can go back first."

As Zhou Wei finished speaking, the two members of the internal audit team looked at each other in bewilderment.

A moment later, perhaps due to the pressure from Zhou Wei, or perhaps because of Minister Spear's authority, the two actually voluntarily withdrew.

But in the end, he still left a message.

"Gentlemen, you only have five minutes."

After the door closed again, Zhou Wei, without waiting for Lin Yuan to say anything, quickly asked:

"Have you offended Minister Yamada?"

"Impossible, I've never even seen his face."

Lin Yuan was somewhat puzzled.

"Generally, ministerial-level directives only come after a case is closed and the evidence is conclusive. A case in the early stages of investigation usually doesn't reach the minister's desk. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"I only asked if you had offended the other party in any way because this investigation was initiated by Minister Yamada himself."

"That's impossible."

Lin Yuan frowned and pondered, recalling the events.

"Or do you have someone in your department with whom you don't get along, and is it their fault?"

Seeing Lin Yuan looking somewhat lost, Zhou Wei couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"...If we're talking about people I don't get along with, it's probably Earth Elementary One."

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something.

"Who?"

Zhou Wei's expression changed upon hearing this.

"You have a conflict with Di Yuanzhongyi?"

"Yes, I don't know when it started, but this person has been going against me in every way. It can't be because I was close to a female colleague he liked before, can it?"

Lin Yuan made a couple of teasing remarks in a low voice, and Zhou Wei's expression turned strange after hearing them. But the next moment he said seriously:

“This local magistrate does have a connection with Minister Yamada. I remember when he was assigned to headquarters, Minister Yamada recommended him to several of us managers. So it seems that this report might really be a bit suspicious.”

"Brother Zhou, could you explain the situation to Vice Minister Spear?"

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he quickly replied.

Zhou Wei was promoted by Vice Minister Spears and can be considered one of his protégés.

Currently, the Marketing Development Department of Tver Company has one head and three deputy heads.

Although the P35 level ministerial rank is the highest, most of the work responsibilities are undertaken by the three deputy ministers. The minister's mind is currently focused on waiting for the opportunity to go to headquarters.

As long as things remain stable within the department, she never gets involved in internal affairs.

Of the remaining three deputy ministers, Deputy Minister Spier was in charge of the business of developing the New World.

Deputy Minister Kane is responsible for market development and competition with the Business Consolidation Department.

Vice Minister Yamada is in charge of intelligence and resources for the Development Department.

If Vice Minister Yamada targets him, then perhaps Vice Minister Spell should intervene; there's a chance things might turn around.

"Well, I'll try to help you, but don't get your hopes up too high."

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Zhou Wei did not feel relieved.

“You don’t know much about this right now, but it’s currently in the Tver branch. Minister Spell and Minister Yamada are considered political allies, vying for power with Minister Kane as the other faction. Minister Serena is usually neutral, but sometimes she leans towards Minister Kane to ensure political balance.”

Lin Yuan's expression turned serious upon hearing this. This was the first time he had learned about the situation at the top, but he didn't know if it was still too late.

"Sigh, unless there are significant interests at stake, Minister Speer and Minister Yamada have always maintained a tacit understanding, but in any case..."

Zhou Wei's expression turned serious.

"Even if the situation is unfavorable to you, I will ask the minister to save you, but if things really become extremely critical..."

Zhou Wei said in a low voice:

"...Then go ask Minister Kane for help. I think he had these considerations when he met with you today. But remember, never choose this path unless it's absolutely necessary, otherwise...you will become a victim of factional infighting."

......

"Time is almost up."

"Hmm, no, we'll just bring people in when it's time."

At the entrance, two members of the internal audit team were waiting anxiously.

Just as they were discussing how to deal with the other party's disobedience, the door in front of them suddenly opened.

Lin Yuan walked out of the office with a calm expression, while Zhou Wei stood still in the distance.

"Gentlemen, let's go."

Lin Yuan didn't say much, but simply gestured for the two to lead the way.

Seeing this, one of them prepared to take something out of his waist, just then Zhou Wei's voice came from inside the house.

"Commissioner Lin Yuan is a talent that Minister Spears is particularly interested in. Is it really necessary for the internal audit department to escort him like a criminal during the investigation of a suspect?"

Just as the man was about to lash out, the other man suddenly laughed:

"There was absolutely no need for this; we were being presumptuous. Commissioner Lin Yuan, please."

Lin Yuan glanced at him, then followed the two to move.

Seeing Lin Yuan cooperate, the two soldiers in the company's armed uniforms behind him silently put down their weapons and followed from behind.

As the group walked down from the platform and passed through the office area, their appearance immediately attracted the attention of many employees.

"Hey, what are those people doing?"

"Hey, don't look up! Those are the internal audit team members. Don't let them target you!"

"That looks like... Lin Yuan from Supervisor Zhou's group, right?"

"Sigh, it seems that's true. What happened? How did they get taken away by the internal audit team?"

"Tsk tsk, what department's rising star? If you ask me, someone who gets promoted at such a young age must have some kind of bribery involved."

For a moment, countless voices began to whisper among themselves.

Lin Yuan's gaze swept over these people.

From their eyes, Lin Yuan saw a variety of expressions, including schadenfreude, excitement, and disgust.

Of course, some familiar employees and colleagues also cast worried glances at him.

Lin Yuanchong and the others nodded slightly, his gaze continuing to sweep across the area. After a moment, his eyes narrowed.

"Diyuan Zhongyi."

He read it softly.

Not far away, a man with neatly combed hair, wearing a smart uniform and gold-rimmed glasses was looking in their direction.

Lin Yuan slowly stopped and extended his right hand, giving a thumbs-up in the other person's direction.

Upon seeing Lin Yuan's expression, a mocking smile gradually appeared on Di Yuanzhong's lips.

But in the next moment, Lin Yuan's hand slowly turned, and finally his thumb slammed down heavily.

The man's smile suddenly vanished.

......

Chapter 12 Interrogation

"Heh, as expected of a renowned elite, you still dare to provoke others even in this predicament?"

Seeing Lin Yuan's actions, the short man beside him sneered.
