Chapter 489 Why is it different from what I thought?
After traveling for a while, Captain Cheng thought that Zhao Qiang's bad habits had been cured after being detained for a few days.
If that's the case, it would be good, at least there won't be any more accidents.
After Zhao Qiang was escorted back to his superior unit by the villagers of Zhoujiazhuang, he was still thinking about his own wishful thinking. He thought that as long as he pretended to be pitiful in front of his superiors and portrayed himself as a victim, he could escape the disaster.
When he was notified to go to the leader's office, he took a deep breath, straightened his slightly messy clothes, put on an extremely aggrieved expression on his face, and walked in with confident steps.
As soon as he entered the office, Zhao Qiang started talking nonsense. His eyes were red and he cried, "Leader, you have to make a decision for me! The people in Zhoujiazhuang put me under house arrest for several days without knowing the truth. I really have no words to express my suffering!
Captain Cheng and his men also watched me die without helping me, leaving me to suffer. I devoted myself to my work and our scientific research career, but how could I end up like this..."
Zhao Qiang became more and more excited as he spoke, gesticulating with his hands and feet, as if he had really suffered a great injustice.
The leader was sitting at his desk, listening patiently to Zhao Qiang's crying. However, as Zhao Qiang's words continued to flow, the leader's face became more and more gloomy.
His brows were tightly furrowed into the shape of a "川" character, and his eyes revealed his extreme dissatisfaction with Zhao Qiang's remarks.
However, Zhao Qiang was completely immersed in his performance and did not notice the leader's emotional changes at all. He continued to talk incessantly, his voice getting louder and louder.
Finally, the leader couldn't bear it anymore and slammed the table. With a loud "bang", Zhao Qiang was interrupted from speaking.
The leader stood up, pointed at Zhao Qiang, his face full of disappointment and anger, and shouted, "You are still quibbling here! Do you know how big a mistake you have made? You tried to tamper with scientific research data, which is an important result related to national food security!
The people of Zhoujiazhuang are protecting the scientific research results, and Captain Cheng and his men are also fulfilling their duties. What about you? You do things that harm the interests of the country for your own selfish desires, and you still have the nerve to confuse right and wrong! "
Every word the leader said was like a heavy hammer, hitting Zhao Qiang's heart hard.
Zhao Qiang's face turned pale in an instant, his legs began to tremble slightly, and his eyes were filled with fear and panic.
Only then did he realize that things did not develop in the direction he expected, and his wishful thinking was completely shattered.
Before Zhao Qiang could recover from the shock, the office door was suddenly opened and two public security officers walked in.
They looked serious and had sharp eyes as they walked straight up to Zhao Qiang.
I didn't expect that a person who dared to destroy such important data would be like this. I thought he was a big and strong guy, or he was very brave.
One of the public security officers said coldly: "Zhao Qiang, come with us."
Zhao Qiang subconsciously wanted to resist, but under the majestic gaze of the public security personnel, he did not dare to act rashly and could only follow them out of the leader's office obediently.
He also saw that one of the police officers had his hands on his waist, ready to draw his weapon at any time.
Zhao Qiang immediately stopped daring to act rashly.
The news that Zhao Qiang was taken away by the police spread throughout the unit like a gust of wind.
Most of my colleagues are busy in the office, organizing materials or discussing scientific research projects.
When the news came, the originally quiet office area instantly exploded.
"Have you heard? Zhao Qiang was taken away by the police!" A young colleague, Xiao Zhang, rushed into the office with excitement on his face and shouted loudly.
The colleagues who were originally concentrating on their work raised their heads one after another with a look of surprise on their faces.
"Is this true? What's going on?" another colleague, Xiao Li, asked hurriedly.
Xiao Zhang took a breath and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. The police took him away directly from the leader's office. It seemed that he made a big mistake during the inspection in Zhoujiazhuang."
There was a sudden buzz of discussion in the office, and colleagues had complicated expressions on their faces.
Among them, many people felt very relieved. They gathered together and talked about Zhao Qiang's various faults in the daily life.
"Humph, he deserves it."
An older colleague, Lao Wang, put down his pen and said with emotion: "Whenever he sees others' achievements, he would be sarcastic and not even look at what he has done. He has offended most of the people here. Now, someone finally punishes him."
"That's right. Last time I completed a small project, he made some sarcastic comments, saying it was just luck."
My colleague Xiao Zhao also echoed this, his face full of anger.
"I wanted to confront him at the time, but I felt there was no need to argue with him."
"And me," another female colleague, Xiao Qian, couldn't help but speak.
"I encountered difficulties in my experiment and asked him for help. Not only did he not help, he also made sarcastic remarks and said that I was incompetent. People like this should have been taught a lesson long ago."
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked. When they recalled what Zhao Qiang usually did, all the dissatisfaction and anger in their hearts surged out.
Some colleagues even dug up some minor frictions they had with Zhao Qiang in the past and exaggerated them.
Amidst the discussions, some colleagues did not participate. They just sat quietly aside with helpless looks on their faces.
Although these people had never had a direct conflict with Zhao Qiang, they had heard of his behavior. Seeing Zhao Qiang end up like this, they felt mixed emotions.
But thinking about Zhao Qiang's usual behavior, he can only say that it is his own fault.
"In fact, if he could focus on scientific research, he wouldn't have come to this point."
A colleague, Lao Sun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "We are all working for scientific research and should help each other and make progress together, but he is always jealous of others and sabotages them."
Lao Sun's words made everyone quiet down, and the office fell into a brief silence for a while.
Everyone understands that scientific research requires teamwork and mutual support. People like Zhao Qiang who are narrow-minded and jealous will not go far.
Some people even went to find Professor Li and Captain Cheng to find out about Zhao Qiang's situation in Zhoujiazhuang.
However, in order to save Zhao Qiang's face, the two did not say much.
Others saw that Professor Li and Captain Cheng didn't want to talk about it, but they couldn't force others to tell the truth.
You have to know that Professor Li and Captain Cheng are among the best in the entire unit. Even the leaders have to respect their opinions sometimes.
Not to mention that they, the "small shrimps", have no right to force it, unless Professor Li and Captain Cheng say it themselves.
From this we can see that this inspection was taken very seriously, and both of them were sent out at once.
