Starting from the Year 1960

Li Xu traveled to the year 1960. In this era, which he had never seen before and only heard about in books and from elders, the only thing he could do was ensure his family had enough to eat and li...

Chapter 366 The Blame

Several days passed, and Li Xu's vacation was over. When he came to the office, he asked Hu Yitong, "Brother Yitong, is there anything new these days?"

"There are quite a few new things. I heard that on the day Shen Yuan was beaten, the director smashed a cup in the office and then yelled at several directors, leaving them afraid to say a word.

The next day, the director went to the hospital. After returning, he said something to Director Li and Director Huang. Then the two directors started fighting in the office, and both ended up in the hospital.

Shen Yuan's family also came to the director to seek justice. The director said in front of many people that he deserved to be beaten, and even refused to reimburse his medical expenses. Unexpectedly, Shen Yuan's family members were quite angry and scratched the director's face on the spot. If they hadn't been pulled away in time, the director might have had to be hospitalized.

Hu Yitong became more and more excited as he spoke. He really didn't expect that he would come across several big news in a row just a few days after joining the job. How could ordinary people have seen such a scene?

Li Xu was a little stunned.

Director Li and Director Huang are the two people who were previously mentioned as having the greatest potential to succeed the director, and they are also the most suspicious.

It’s not surprising that the two of them fought, but it’s a bit unbelievable that they fought to the point where both of them were hospitalized.

Moreover, the director came to find them after returning from the hospital. Could it be that he got some information from Shen Yuan?

Besides, the people in Shen Yuan’s family are too powerful. They actually dared to attack the director. Aren’t they afraid that the director will attack Shen Yuan?

Thinking of this, Li Xu always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was, so he asked, "Has Shen Yuan come to work?"

Hearing this question, Hu Yitong's expression instantly became extremely strange. Not only did he not answer, but he asked, "You don't know?"

"Should I know?" Li Xu was stunned, not quite understanding what he meant.

"Of course. It was you who caused Shen Yuan to be hospitalized again." Hu Yitong answered affirmatively.

"Hospitalized again? What does that mean?"

Hu Yitong explained, "Shen Yuan came to work the day before yesterday, but that night he was beaten up and hospitalized. Everyone is saying that you guys are still angry about what happened last time, so you beat him up again."

After hearing this, Li Xu's face changed and he cursed, "Mm, who the hell is talking nonsense? I was at home the night before last and didn't go anywhere."

Hu Yitong looked at him carefully for a while, and seeing that he really didn't seem to know, he hesitantly replied, "That's what everyone says now, even a few of us apprentices think so. If it's not you, then it must be the other masters."

Now Li Xu couldn't curse anymore.

Even the apprentices think so, could it really be the car team's doing?

After all, among the new apprentices there are the descendants of the master craftsman. As sons, how could they not know whether their father was at home the night before?

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Master Duan coming to Li Xu's car and shouted solemnly, "Xiao Li, get down. We have something to discuss."

Seeing him like this, Li Xu didn't say much and jumped out of the car and went to the gathering place.

After several regular workers arrived, Master Duan was the first to ask, "My son told me last night that Shen Yuan was beaten. Was it you who did it?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Xu quickly looked at the other people, especially Master Song.

After all, he is the one most likely to take action among these people.

But I never expected that everyone said they didn't do it.

Li Xu was confused and asked quickly, "Master Duan, I just heard my brother say that the apprentices all thought we did it. I don't understand. Your son doesn't know whether you were home that night?"

"I went to a friend's house that night and came back very late."

Hearing this answer, everyone turned their gaze to the other master and asked, "Old Wang, you weren't home the night before last?"

"I went to my relative's house and stayed there for more than an hour. My son asked me about this last night. I was puzzled at the time and thought it was you who did it." Master Wang replied.

Everyone was speechless. This was too much of a coincidence.

Think about it, when the apprentices heard the news that Shen Yuan was beaten again yesterday, their first reaction was definitely to find someone to ask.

At this time, two people said that their fathers had been out for a while the night before.

Then of course they would think it was the car team that did it.

After figuring it out, Master Song said with a dark face, "Damn it, someone is throwing dirty water on us."

"Mm, if I find out who did this, I'll beat the shit out of him, even if he poops clean."

How could Li Xu and his friends not be angry when they were blamed for no reason?

They were clamoring to find out who had spread the news and who had taken action the night before.

Then Li Xu told them what had happened in the supply and marketing cooperative in the past few days and asked them if they had noticed anything wrong.

You know what, after listening to it, Liu Gang really had an idea.

He suspected that Director Li and the other man were hospitalized deliberately to show the director, in order to show that there was a huge conflict between them, but in fact they had already joined forces.

The reason why Shen Yuan's family dared to attack the director was probably because they knew that Shen Yuan had teamed up with the two directors to bring the director down, so they felt there was no need to be afraid of the director.

As for Shen Yuan being beaten and hospitalized again, it was very likely that the three of them staged it themselves in order to muddy the waters.

The more people thought about it, the more they felt that this speculation made sense.

After all, the director could never have imagined that the two directors who were competing so fiercely would join forces to deal with her.

When she thought she had only one opponent, she naturally wanted to win over the other person.

But if someone else also wants to bring her down and stab her in the back, can she defend herself?

The answer is of course no.

Now that we have a direction for investigation, things will be much easier.

In the end, it was decided that Li Xu and two masters would be responsible for investigating the source of the rumors, while the other four would investigate Shen Yuan and the other two.

After everyone dispersed, Li Xu returned to his car and asked, "Brother Yitong, it was our car team that beat Shen Yuan the night before last. Who told you this?"

Hu Yintong was stunned. "I don't know that person. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"This is a big problem. We didn't do this, but someone is throwing dirty water on us."

"Ah?" Hu Yitong screamed, "You didn't do it?"

"Master Duan called me just now because of this matter. You misunderstood." Then Li Xu told what he knew.

After hearing this, Hu Yitong was a little bit unbelievable and muttered to himself, "This is too coincidental."

"It's just a coincidence." Li Xu was a little amused and asked again, "Do you remember what that person looks like?"

"I remember." Hu Yitong answered without hesitation.
