Ning Jinluo was just out of college when her uncle tricked her into inheriting a factory on the brink of bankruptcy, leaving her buried in massive debt. Her boyfriend dumped her for a rich woman, l...
Chapter 94 A death has occurred at the factory!
Ning Jinli only learned the Heavenly Profound Heart Method and did not know any martial arts moves, not even how to fight.
However, with the improvement of their perception, their reaction speed has far exceeded that of ordinary people.
The moment the security guard's fist came crashing down, she instinctively tilted her head to the side.
The swift and fierce punch missed its mark.
Not only was the security guard stunned, but Ning Jinli herself was also taken aback.
Both of them were surprised; how could they have dodged it?
But the security guard thought it must be a coincidence.
Back when I was involved in gang fights on the street, this girl was still breastfeeding. Not to mention that I later trained specifically to beat up ten untrained ordinary adult men as easily as eating and drinking.
Yes, it must have been a coincidence that she managed to avoid it.
"I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless!" Ning Jinli said sternly.
The security guard mistook her for an ordinary factory employee and said in a high-sounding tone, "You started this whole thing, and you even struck first! We're here to protect the factory! If we don't teach you a lesson, will you behave?"
Unaware of the truth, Ning Jinli thought the security guard was quite dedicated, but his shortcomings lay in his inappropriate handling of the situation.
So she kindly advised, "Everyone is angry right now. Using force won't solve the problem; it will only escalate the conflict between the workers and the factory. Listen to me, stop hitting people and help me break up the fight."
The security guard sneered inwardly.
Trying to mediate a fight?
I'm just trying to make a big scene and kill a few people!
"Okay, okay, I'll give it a try." The security guard cooperated, hoping to lower Ning Jinli's guard.
Ning Jinli helped the weak middle-aged man to his feet, intending to take him to a corner of the factory to hide there.
Just as the two turned around...
The security guard secretly picked up a wooden stick from the ground and suddenly smashed it hard against the back of the man's head.
If that hits, the middle-aged man will definitely be killed on the spot with his head split open.
A chill ran down Ning Jinli's neck, and goosebumps rose on her skin.
Without turning her head, she reacted instinctively once again.
In a flash, she swiftly pressed the middle-aged man's head down, then her inner strength flowed naturally, and she bent over and kicked him backward.
Bang!
A muffled thud.
Before the security guard could even chop down the wooden stick, Ning Jinli kicked him away with a kick as swift as a scorpion's tail.
The kick was executed in one smooth motion.
The security guard was thrown back two or three meters, knocking over several people who were fighting in the middle of the fight. Finally, he slipped and fell heavily backward, his head hitting a piece of machinery squarely.
"you……"
The security guard glared angrily at Ning Jinli, trying to stand up with all his might, but his head was throbbing with pain.
He reached up and touched the back of his head, and his expression immediately changed drastically.
He touched a dent in his head, and it felt sticky and wet...
When he trembled and brought his hand to his eyes, he saw that it was covered in blood.
Then everything went black, and he collapsed into a pool of blood.
Blood was flowing everywhere, and the person was only exhaling but not inhaling.
Those who witnessed the scene all stopped fighting, and someone shouted, "Someone's dead! Someone's been killed!"
A gasp of surprise echoed throughout the factory.
The others also stopped and looked over.
Ning Jinli stood there, stunned.
Knife-faced and the other security guards, thinking their men had succeeded, rushed over, pushed through the crowd, and were shocked to find their accomplice lying in a pool of blood.
"Brother...brother!"
The man with the knife-like face lunged forward, his eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.
After calling out twice without response, I immediately checked her breathing and pulse.
"Quick, call an ambulance!" a security guard shouted.
The security guard with the scabbard-like face was ashen. He shook his head. "He's already dead. There's no heartbeat left..."
Everyone's face changed, and the workers trembled as they put down the weapons they were using to fight.
The other dozen or so accomplices mixed in were also dumbfounded.
According to the original plan, the factory employees should have been the ones killed!
How come one of our own people died?
That's not fair!
"Who did this?" The security captain with the slashed face slowly stood up, his murderous eyes scanning the surroundings before quickly locking onto Ning Jinli.
He didn't see the whole thing.
However, judging from the direction the dead security guard fell, the young girl directly opposite him is highly suspicious.
“It was…it was her…” A factory worker pointed at Ning Jinli, trembling. “I…I think I just saw her kick this security guard.”
"Yes... I saw it too."
Several more factory employees came forward to testify.
Everyone said the situation was too chaotic just now. Although it wasn't very clear, it's certain that she kicked him, causing the security guard to lose his balance and fall backward, hitting his head and dying instantly.
Ning Jinli felt a chill run down her spine, and her head was buzzing.
She never intended to kill anyone!
It was just a purely defensive reaction at the time; who knew such an accident would happen?
"I...I didn't mean to..." Ning Jinli said, her voice trembling as she tried to remain calm.
The ten security guards, led by the man with the knife-like face, all had murderous glints in their eyes.
I wish I could beat this woman to death right now.
But if we take action against her now, the nature of the situation changes, and it will affect the original plan.
The factory workers who had just come forward to describe what happened, seeing that Ning Jinli was very young and seemed trembling and at a loss, said one after another:
“She definitely didn’t do it on purpose, and we can testify to that.”
"Yes! That's how it happened, but it was ultimately an accident!"
"You can't make things difficult for that young girl!"
"..."
One thing at a time, these people are at least clear-headed.
It is true that someone died, but it is also true that the girl did not do it intentionally.
Ning Jinli had calmed down considerably by now. She took a deep breath and said, "The accident was my fault, and I will take full responsibility. Thank you all for testifying for me. Also, there are security cameras in the factory, and the police will investigate thoroughly..."
"Everyone, stay here and don't move."
Ning Jinli calmly looked around at everyone, then at the security captain, and continued, "Please... call the police first."
The security captain's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty.
He stared intently at Ning Jinli, thought for a moment, then turned to the other security guards and said, "You guys keep an eye on things here."
"Brother," a security guard leaned close to his ear, "Is this how it ends? We..."
The security captain with the scabbard-like face spat out a few words through gritted teeth, "Hold on, I'll go report to our boss first."
He then avoided the crowd and walked to a corner of the factory, giving a wink to a fat man from a distance.
That fat guy was the one who started the trouble in the cafeteria.
After exchanging glances, the fat man quietly followed.
The factory was crowded, and the workers, unaware of the truth, were all focused on the dead security guard and Ning Jinli. No one noticed the security captain's movements.
The man with the striped face went to the corner, turned a corner, and went into the bathroom.
The fat man then entered and closed the door behind him.
"Did you see the specific situation at that time?" the striped-face man asked.
The fat man shook his head. "I didn't see it, and neither did the dozen or so men under my command."
The man with the long, thin face frowned. "Damn it... how did this kind of thing happen?"
The fat man said, "You guys are so skilled, how did you manage to slip up like this? How are we going to explain this to the boss?"
"Shut up!" The man with the striped face glared fiercely. "I just lost a brother for nothing! Don't come near me and cause trouble!"
According to the original plan, at most, the subordinate who caused the death would go to jail.
Moreover, if handled properly, it might even be considered legitimate self-defense, thus avoiding imprisonment.
Now, not only has the mission not been completed, but one of their own people has also lost his life.
"Hey buddy, don't get angry yet," the fat guy said cautiously. "Although neither I nor my men saw it, we can all talk. We can just testify that the woman did it on purpose, right?"
The man with the slender face gritted his teeth, "There are security cameras in the factory, didn't you know that?"
The fat man looked smug. "How could I not know? Let me tell you, when you first started fighting with the factory workers, I had my men smash all the security cameras."
The man with the striped face was slightly taken aback. "Alright, you did a good job on that."
“Of course,” the fat man said, “what if you accidentally make it look too deliberate when you’re killing someone, and it gets caught on camera? That would be terrible.”
The man with the slender face nodded. "So, there won't be any surveillance footage of the whole process of my brother's death, right?"
The fat man patted his chest and assured, "Absolutely not! Otherwise, could I say I can bring my men to testify? The mission failed, but we can't let your brother die in vain. We have to make that woman bear the serious crime of intentional homicide and make your brother pay with his life!"
The man with the slender face narrowed his eyes. "Do you know that woman?"
The fat man thought for a moment and said, "I don't know her, I've never seen her before. She must have started working at this factory after me. Don't worry, she looks like she comes from an ordinary family and doesn't have any connections or backing. When the factory tries to smooth things over, they'll definitely have to use her as a scapegoat. She's doomed. And they'll even have to pay your brother a lot of money."
The man with the slender face calmed down considerably and sighed, saying, "How are we going to explain this to the boss? Even with this incident, it probably won't be enough to bankrupt the factory immediately. The boss can't wait any longer."
"Well..." the fat man hesitated, "I don't know what to do either. Let's talk to the boss first. Maybe the big boss can help?"
"Yes, that's what I was thinking too. Okay, you can go out now, I'll report to the boss."
"Okay."
The fat man quickly left the toilet.
The man with the slender face took out his phone and mustered up the courage to dial a number.
"It's all done?" Ning Hai's slightly excited voice came through the phone as soon as it connected.
"I'm sorry, boss," the man with the striped face said nervously, "there's been a little mishap."
"What?!" Ning Hai, who was waiting for good news in his study at home, jumped up from his chair. "You told me that my meticulous, detailed, and flawless plan went wrong?!"
He had already been planning this since Ning Jinli started purchasing raw materials on a large scale to start production.
From demanding a full supply of raw materials to cutting off all related sales channels, and then selecting two groups of suitable people to enter the factory according to plan.
It can be said that they went to great lengths and adopted multiple approaches.
The goal was to deliver the final blow, bankrupting Ning Jinli's factory in the shortest possible time, leaving it with no chance of recovery.
"Boss... I'm sorry." The man with the long face forced an apology, gritting his teeth, "One of my brothers died..."
Ning Hai was stunned for a moment, "How come one of our own people died? Tell me, what exactly happened!"
Scarface then told Ninghai everything about the unexpected situation that had just occurred.
Ning Hai remained silent for a long time after hearing this.
He paced back and forth in the study, clutching his phone.
The boss didn't speak, and the man with the long face didn't dare to ask either, so he could only wait patiently.
After about a minute, Ning Hai suddenly laughed, "Although this went wrong, the final result is even better than I expected. Don't worry, I will send someone to deliver money to your dead brother's family, one million, no, two million! I will also take good care of his wife and children in the future."
The man with the knife-like face was startled. "Thank you, boss! But boss, I don't understand what you mean."
Ning Hai lit a cigar and said while puffing out smoke, "If the person who caused your brother's death was just an ordinary employee, that would be one thing, but she's not an ordinary person, hahaha!"
"Who...is she?" the knife-faced man asked in a low voice.
Ning Hai laughed loudly: "She's the factory owner! My dear niece—Ning Jinli!"
The man with the long, thin face was shocked. "She's the boss?! Then... how can you achieve your goal?"
"Still don't understand? All you people know is fighting and killing. You should spend your time reading more books and using your brains," Ning Hai casually lectured for a moment before asking in return, "Let me ask you, what are your and your brothers' statuses now?"
"Identity..." The man with the long, thin face scratched his head, "...is he...a security guard?"
"Where are the security guards from? Whose security guards are they?"
"The ones in the factory, that is... Ning Jinli's security guards."
"Isn't that right?"
Ning Hai laughed, "A factory owner killing her own security guard, what an explosive case! Isn't this even more sensational than my original plan of her factory security guard beating up her factory's employees?"
The man with the striped face suddenly realized, "Boss! I understand!"
Ning Hai reminded him, "Let's stick to the original approach and make a scene. Ning Jinli has fallen into this trap herself. I don't believe her factory won't go bankrupt! You and the people I've placed among the employees continue to cooperate well, and then call the police immediately!"
"Yes, boss!"
"Furthermore, I will use my connections to get the police officer in charge of that area's superiors involved, and I will also pass on the message to the reporters that Ning Jinli's factory will be bustling like never before tonight. You all need to be on your guard and make sure nothing goes wrong!"
"Yes, boss!"
After making the call, Ning Hai was all smiles, puffing on his cigar and pacing back and forth in his study before making a call to his secretary.
He instructed his secretary to prepare the car immediately, as he also needed to rush to Ning Jinli's factory.
When the police and reporters arrive, the factory and Ning Jinli will both be finished.
How could he miss such a joyous and lively occasion in person?
