I'm My Ex's Mother-in-Law

At my ex-boyfriend's engagement banquet, I appeared in full attire. He thought I was there to cause trouble, but I smiled very kindly and said, "We'll all be family from now on, no need...

Chapter 876: An acquaintance

When I arrived at the Operations Center, I was the last one to arrive.

When I pushed the door open, everyone's eyes were on me, which made me touch my face subconsciously to make sure there was nothing on it.

"Sorry, the traffic is a bit congested." I smiled awkwardly and walked over to sit next to Fang Dongmei, and asked her quietly, "What's the urgent matter?"

Actually, I feel a little puzzled. In this operation, I am just a non-staff professional technical support.

This has nothing to do with their criminal investigation. This is such an important clue that they had to call me over.

Fang Dongmei looked solemn and lowered her voice, "I might have been targeted today, but I'm not sure of their purpose at the moment."

Wen Congwu knocked on the table and said, "Everyone is here. Xiao Fang, tell everyone in detail what happened at noon."

Fang Dongmei nodded and began to tell what happened this afternoon.

"When I went to the supermarket to buy groceries, there was a young girl holding a bunch of things in her hands. She kept looking back while walking. I don't know what she was looking at.

I was wondering at the time why she didn't push the cart or carry the basket when buying things, but held everything in her hands.

I don't know how she bumped into me when I wasn't paying attention, and she dropped the things in her hands."

Fang Dongmei didn't think much about it at the time. She just thought that the girl was a little too aggressive. Out of politeness, she squatted down to help pick up things and even took a shopping basket for her.

The girl kept thanking her and acted very familiar.

She paused, as if recalling the details: "She asked me if I was a student at University A. I was cautious at the time and answered exactly as I had planned."

The girl asked about Fang Dongmei's major again, and learned that Fang Dongmei was studying Fashion Design and was a senior this year.

She immediately showed great interest, saying that she was interning at STG and asked her if she had found a job.

Fang Dongmei remained calm and took the opportunity to talk about her upcoming interview at COLLIN Company.

The girl seemed a little surprised and kept praising the company as a benchmark in the clothing industry and that its treatment was much better than that of its peers.

These would not have aroused Fang Dongmei's vigilance until the other party said that he had a relative working in HR at COLLIN Company. She knew what questions would generally be asked during the interview.

Fang Dongmei's words made everyone present sit up straight involuntarily and lean forward slightly.

My nerves suddenly tensed up. This was too much of a coincidence.

"When she heard I was going to COLLIN for an interview, she was very enthusiastic."

Fang Dongmei continued, "She said she felt she had a good relationship with me and was willing to teach me interview techniques. She even insisted on buying me milk tea."

Wen Congwu narrowed his eyes: "What exactly did she say about the interview?"

"It was very detailed," Fang Dongmei said, pulling her phone from her bag. "I secretly recorded it. For example, they asked standard questions like 'Why did you choose our company?' and 'What is your understanding of fast fashion?' They also emphasized that I should express to the interviewer my strong desire to receive overseas training."

There was silence in the conference room.

If the previous words were just suspicion, then the following words were too obvious. The other party was clearly trying to guide Fang Dongmei to express her willingness to go abroad.

"What's her name?" Wen Congwu asked.

"She said her name was Xiao Qin," Fang Dongmei said. "I added her on WeChat, but she didn't tell me her full name, so I didn't want to ask."

As she spoke, she turned on her phone and brought up Xiaoqing's profile page.

Wen Congwu thought for a moment, then turned to Luo Yong and said, "Get the surveillance footage from that milk tea shop right away and see if you can use facial recognition to find out the girl's true identity."

"Yes, I'll go right away." Luo Yong turned and entered the computer room.

"Captain Wen, has the other party become suspicious of Xiao Fang? Did they send someone to test him?" Zhuque said with some concern.

Wen Congwu crossed his chest with one hand and stroked his chin with the other. He pondered for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be. I think it's possible that the interviewer followed the normal process, but the Infinite Life Association is worried that she won't be able to start work normally.

Within COLLIN, those who know the inside story should be limited to a few core figures at the top. If they keep interfering with HR interviews, it would be very suspicious.

Therefore, we need to make everyone think that the applicants are entering the company through normal procedures, which can reduce the possibility of the company being exposed."

"Infinite Life Association?" I couldn't help but ask a question when I suddenly heard a new term.

Wen Congwu nodded and said, “Our comrades have recently discovered such an organization internationally, which has developed rapidly in the past two years.

This is an elite club, a criminal group that engages in illegal organ trafficking under the guise of researching life sciences.

The flow of funds behind this association is inextricably linked to the Lu family."

"Captain Wen, the surveillance footage has been retrieved." Luo Yong came out of the computer room holding a laptop.

After he projected the retrieved surveillance footage onto the screen, we soon saw Fang Dongmei talking to a young girl in the corner of a milk tea shop.

Since the surveillance camera was facing Fang Dongmei at a 45-degree angle, the girl opposite her was only visible from the side and back.

I saw the girl gesturing something enthusiastically. Since the surveillance camera was far away, I could only see the picture and could not hear the sound of the two people talking.

Fang Dongmei adjusted the time shown on the surveillance camera and the time when her mobile phone recording ended to synchronize the two.

Wu Wanqing in the video suddenly asked, "Does your family support you working abroad?"

Fang Dongmei answered as planned: "My mother would probably be worried about me, but I really want to experience overseas."

"Where's your father?"

"I... don't have a father." Fang Dongmei lowered her head. In her heart, a father like that was as good as not existing, so she acted without any guilt.

The girl named Xiao Qin comforted her, "I'm sorry... But it's okay this way. If you succeed out there, you can take your mother out to enjoy life."

I felt that the girl on the screen was a little familiar. I was thinking hard about it when I suddenly saw her turn around and call out to the waiter, "Please give me another piece of tiramisu."

As I turned my head, I saw her face, "Wu Wanqing!!" I screamed in surprise.

Everyone's eyes turned to me. Luo Yong was still running facial recognition on another computer. After hearing what I said, he stopped the program and asked, "Ms. Xia, do you know this person?"

I nodded with certainty. "I'm sure it's Wu Wanqing. Her father was Xiao Shiqiu's former driver, and her mother was Xiao Shiqiu's nanny at his Lanshan Villa. She currently works at a real estate company under STG. I saw her not long ago."

"Hearing what you said, Lao Xiao is quite suspicious." Wen Congwu analyzed seriously.
