Chapter 917 Are You Tired of Living?
As soon as Joey returned to the company, he immediately went to report today's situation to John.
"I walked with him for a day and found nothing unusual about him."
This is what Joey came to after a day of observation.
"Are you sure?" John stared at her suspiciously.
Joey pursed his lips and replied in a rather helpless tone, "I know you may not believe it, but it is indeed true."
John frowned, was he really overthinking it? In fact, the matter has nothing to do with that Feng Jin?
Before he had time to think about it, Pierce hurried in.
Seeing this, John immediately lowered his face and looked over impatiently, "What happened again?"
"I found it!"
"Found it?" John was stunned, and then quickly asked: "What was found?"
"We found suspicious people within the group."
"who?"
"It's the cleaning that goes into the research room to clean on weekdays."
John was a little surprised by this answer, "Housekeeping?"
It is not that easy to steal drugs from a research laboratory with such tight security measures. How could a mere cleaner do it?
"Are you sure?" John asked.
Pierce nodded, "OK."
John always felt like something was wrong.
He thought for a while and asked, "Isn't there a dedicated person responsible for cleaning the research room? Is this cleaning guy new?"
Pierce hesitated for a moment before timidly responding: "He's new."
"Absurd!" John yelled angrily, "You actually asked a new cleaning lady to clean the research room. Are you tired of it?"
Pierce lowered his head, "I'm sorry, it was my negligence."
"A moment of negligence?" John sneered, "Pierce, you have not been negligent once or twice. I have to wonder if you are involved in this incident!"
Hearing this, Pierce turned pale with fright and hurriedly promised, "Mr. John, if I dare to do anything detrimental to the group or you, I will definitely not end well."
John sneered, "You better be, or I won't let you go."
"Don't worry, I won't let you down."
Pierce wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued: "The cleaner who was in charge of cleaning that day asked a colleague to take his place because he had a stomachache. Someone has always been watching when he was cleaning, but... who knew that this time he actually let the other party take advantage of the loophole. The medicine was stolen."
"Where is the cleaner now?" John asked through gritted teeth.
Pierce swallowed his saliva and replied quietly: "Escaped..."
"Escaped?" John's eyes widened in anger, "You actually told me that he escaped?"
"I've sent someone to find him."
"Look for me, even if you dig three feet in the ground, you have to find him!" John hammered the table angrily.
"yes."
Pierce responded hurriedly, and then continued, "Mr. John, that cleaner is an undercover agent sent in from outside. I have found out that this person may be a member of Wushangmen."
"Wu Shangmen?"
John remembered that someone died from being infected with their virus some time ago. It was said that he was a person from Wushangmen.
"This Wushangmen is really brave. He dares to send people to our SA Group to undercover."
This was completely beyond John's expectation. He always thought it would be done by a rival company or Mr. Feng, but he never expected it to be Wushangmen.
"Is Wushangmen taking revenge on the SA Group?" John asked.
Pierce did not answer, but said: "The fire in the warehouse is also related to Wushangmen."
After learning the truth, John was so angry that he smashed the cup on the table. With a venomous look on his face, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out three words from his mouth: "Wu Shamen!"
He didn't notice Pierce's secret sigh of relief.
Now that the matter was cleared up and he didn't have to take the blame, Pierce felt a lot more relaxed, but seeing John so angry, he couldn't help but get upset.
"What are we going to do now?" Pierce asked cautiously.
John turned to glare at him, "Pierce, don't let me call you a loser again!"
What he wants is for him to help solve the problem, not just ask what to do!
Pierce subconsciously wanted to apologize, but thinking that he didn't like hearing it, he quickly changed his mind and said, "My idea is that we can no longer directly conflict with Wushangmen."
John took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"We are just doing business. Now that this kind of thing happens, we can no longer solve it." John said.
"What do you mean?"
John pondered for a moment, "I will report all the situations to Berglian."
Immediately, he dismissed everyone and he was the only one left in the office.
Things have reached this point, and it is no longer something he and the entire SA Group can handle.
Rather than letting Berglian come to hold him accountable after he senses something is wrong, he might as well confess first and maybe gain Berglian's forgiveness.
John called Berglian's assistant, "Hello, I am John from SA Group. I have something to report to Mr. Berglian."
"Hold on."
There was a moment of silence.
John was not in a hurry, he knew that the assistant wanted to ask Berglian for instructions.
After about a few minutes, the assistant's voice sounded again: "Meet you at the same place."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for John to react.
Damn it!
How dare an assistant do this to him!
John threw the phone on the table with some annoyance. If it weren't for profit, how could he be willing to give in to Berglian?
…
That night, John arrived early at a famous Italian restaurant.
He looked at his watch from time to time, with a faint impatient look on his face.
The time he and Berglian agreed on had long passed, but the other party had not come.
Seeing his irritability, Pierce cautiously suggested: "Why don't you call and ask, maybe Mr. Berglian was delayed by something."
"When will it be your turn to speak about my matter?"
John shot a cold light at him, and the latter immediately lowered his head and dared not say anything.
Berglian is a man of treacherous temperament, and people can't figure out his mind at all.
I'm afraid he will regret it at the last minute and don't want to come.
Just when John was hesitating whether to call and ask as Pierce said, a familiar voice sounded, "Mr. John, long time no see."
It was Berglian.
John quickly got up, suppressed all his impatience, and smiled on his face, "Long time no see, Mr. Berglian."
"My assistant said you have something important to report to me, right?" Berglian sat down opposite him and looked at him with a smile.
"Yes." John put away his smile and became unusually serious.
Berglian raised his eyebrows, "Then tell me."
John pondered for a moment before saying, "The drugs we were researching were stolen, and the newly ordered medicinal materials were burned."
"What are you talking about?" Berglian thought he had misheard.
"Mr. Berglian, I'm sorry, this time it was the SA Group's problem that led to this. I came here today to tell you that the task may not be completed on the agreed date."
