Chapter 406 Catching the Spy and Eliminating Worries



406

Only those who are exceptionally talented are eligible for temporary transfer.

"I won't be able to work with the boss anymore." Tang Xinliang said enviously. He had learned a lot since joining this group.

In their group, as long as you work hard, no one will put you down.

Unlike other groups, where there is always some degree of exclusion and suppression, preventing me from fully utilizing my abilities.

“Yes, it’s a real shame,” Qian Miaomiao said. “We’re not qualified to lead our own teams yet; we’re just assigned to other people’s groups. We’re like nobody’s business.”

"Don't worry, I'll talk to Chief Engineer Sun and have him make proper arrangements for you," Huo Yingjie said. He still wanted these two assistants. "After Yuanchao and I leave, you two need to work even harder. If I find out you haven't made any progress when I come back, I'll scold you."

"Boss, you can rest assured, we won't let you down," Qian Miaomiao said.

They didn't leave until 7 p.m., having finished all the braised food and snacks and all the alcohol.

That evening, when Huo Yingjie was alone, Little Turtle sent him a message.

Huo Yingjie didn't drink much, so he was clear-headed.

"Master, that person has started arranging people to try and oust Zhou Yuanchao. Chief Engineer Sun is arguing his case." Little Turtle told its master this important news.

That person was Zhang Wei, a spy hidden in the Nanshi Weapons Research Institute.

This trip will take a long time, and during that time, Zhang Wei may develop many downlines.

Since we can't receive Zhang Wei's ideas in time, there's no need to keep him around.

"What did Chief Engineer Sun say?" Huo Yingjie asked in his mind, this was the most crucial question.

"Chief Engineer Sun has already prepared the transfer order, and said that this is not within Zhang Wei's scope of responsibility, and told him not to overstep his bounds," Chief Engineer Sun said. "Chief Engineer Sun is in a better position now, but that person is not giving up."

"What's wrong?" Huo Yingjie asked. "Is he going to hurt Zhou Yuanchao?"

"Yes, they wanted to create an accident on the way. If Zhou Yuanchao got injured, he naturally wouldn't be able to report to Yanjing," Little Turtle said. That person was truly wicked.

Huo Yingjie remained silent, pondering how to bring down Zhang Wei.

"Master, have you decided what to do?" the little tortoise asked. It was always by its master's side and it liked Zhou Yuanchao, who was a very easygoing person.

"Hmm, I'll think about it some more," Huo Yingjie said. Based on the information provided by the little tortoise, he had come up with a brilliant idea.

The next morning, Huo Yingjie went to see Chief Engineer Sun.

I told Chief Engineer Sun about some suspicious things about Zhang Wei's work.

Chief Engineer Sun looked at him seriously and asked, "Yingjie, this is no joke. You must be careful about what you say."

“Of course,” Huo Yingjie said. “I had this suspicion before. Those people could have gotten more information out of them, so why didn’t Zhang Wei report it?”

Chief Engineer Sun nodded, then suddenly realized that Zhang Wei had wanted to replace Zhou Yuanchao with someone named Li Pu, and he was immediately alarmed.

It is Chief Engineer Sun's right to recommend someone to go.

Zhang Wei only needed to verify the political background of the people he selected. Zhou Yuanchao was politically clean and had no blemishes.

However, Zhang Wei's insistence on replacing him was a bit excessive.

Although the person Zhang Wei recommended was second only to Huo Yingjie in terms of excellence in the research institute, Chief Engineer Sun felt that the person's expertise was not relevant, and more importantly, that the person did not have a good rapport with Huo Yingjie, unlike Zhou Yuanchao, who had worked with Huo Yingjie for a long time and had developed a good understanding with him, making their work more efficient.

"If he really is a spy, I can understand why he kept recommending Li Pu yesterday," Chief Engineer Sun said with heartache. It doesn't matter that Zhang Wei is involved in political work, but he feels sorry for Li Pu. How could he be willing to be Zhang Wei's pawn?

What a pity!

It's not easy for the country to train a scientific researcher, especially now that the college entrance examination has been abolished, talent is even more precious.

Although universities are now gradually enrolling some worker-peasant-soldier students, they are all recommended and have not passed the exams, so their educational levels vary.

Even after graduating from university, becoming an excellent researcher is even more difficult.

Li Pu?

Huo Yingjie sneered inwardly. He didn't know this person was a spy in his previous life, but this person was jealous of talent and caused trouble in the research institute. This time, when he brought down Zhang Wei, he also dragged Li Pu into it.

Once it is confirmed that Zhang Wei is a spy, even if Li Pu has extraordinary talent, he will not be allowed to participate in major projects.

"Actually, it's very simple to prove whether Zhang Wei is a spy," Huo Yingjie said. "If he wants to replace Zhou Yuanchao, he will definitely send people to intercept Zhou Yuanchao on the road."

"Huh?" Chief Engineer Sun exclaimed in surprise, "Is it really possible to do that?"

"Whether it can be done or not, Chief Engineer Sun, you'll just have to wait and see," Huo Yingjie said. "This requires Chief Engineer Sun and Director Hua to discuss how to do it."

Director Hua is an expert in this field.

"Okay, then wait a minute. You can stay at the research institute for one more day under the pretext of handing over your work with Qian Miaomiao and Tang Xinliang," Chief Engineer Sun instructed, and then went to Director Hua's house during lunch.

Upon hearing this, Director Hua's face turned grim. He had previously suspected that there was something fishy about their Political Department's Security Section, but he had not found sufficient evidence.

If Director Hua wouldn't suspect Chief Engineer Sun, then the person Chief Engineer Sun suspects must be highly suspicious.

"Chief Engineer Sun, just do it as usual," Director Hua said. "I'll arrange it."

If the fish bites this time, you can catch a big one.

This is Director Hua's forte, and Chief Engineer Sun has no doubt about it.

The next morning, Huo Yingjie and Zhou Yuanchao received their transfer orders and left the weapons research institute together.

They bought tickets for the same train, but Zhou Yuanchao had to transfer in Nanshi.

Upon arriving in Nanshi, Zhou Yuanchao took advantage of a break to use the restroom, exchanged clothes with someone, and changed his appearance. Instead of returning to his hometown, he hid at Huo Yingjie's house.

The man disguised as Zhou Yuanchao bought a train ticket to Inner Mongolia and boarded the train.

All the identification documents used belonged to Zhou Yuanchao.

Zhou Yuanchao hid in Huo Yingjie's house and was welcomed by Jiang Lifang and Huo Zhekun.

However, Zhou Yuanchao was anxious and asked, "Boss, do you think we can catch the spy?"

"It should be fine, right?" Huo Yingjie said. "This is not something you should worry about! Get some rest, and you can go home when we have news."

"I hope so," Zhou Yuanchao sighed. Was it worth it for these people to betray their country?

Three days later, Huo Yingjie received a telegram from Chief Engineer Sun.

Finish!

Just two words, which was agreed upon by Huo Yingjie and Chief Engineer Sun beforehand.

Haha, plus what Huo Yingjie said to Chief Engineer Sun and Director Hua before, that's enough to bring down Zhang Wei, so he can go north with peace of mind.

"Alright, you can go home now. Be careful on the road and report for duty by the deadline," Huo Yingjie instructed. He also had things to say to his father; there were many things he needed to explain.

This trip would be almost like going to jail, and Huo Yingjie wouldn't feel at ease without proper arrangements.

"Understood, boss. Be careful too," Zhou Yuanchao said. Two low-ranking soldiers followed him outside to protect him. (To be continued.)
