Chapter 376 Stolen
Su Tong went downstairs and called Qin Yi's office in the military region.
But this time the call didn't go through.
The operator at the military district's communications department told her that no one answered the call.
Su Tong put down the phone. There are usually several people working there. If they are not there, they must be on some important mission.
After thinking about it, she turned and went into her study. After Su Yu had tidied it for her, she had not used it yet.
She found a large piece of white paper, spread it on the desk, and began to draw a detailed tree diagram on it.
She needed to carefully sort out the information in her mind.
It was very late that day, but Su Wenqian, who usually got off work on time, had not returned yet.
Lin Xiuqing is working overtime in the hospital.
Su Tong was wondering whether to call Lin Xiuqing to ask...
Lin Xiuqing called.
She asked Su Tong about her first day at work and whether she had any difficulty adapting...
Su Tong answered one by one and said that everything was fine and his colleagues were easy to get along with.
Then she said that Su Wenqian had not returned home yet.
Lin Xiuqing also felt a little surprised when she heard this, because Su Wenqian usually would call in advance when he came home late.
She said to Su Tong, "It's okay! I'll call his office to ask later, you go to sleep first!"
Su Tong agreed and returned to his room.
But not long after, the phone rang again.
It was Lin Xiuqing calling...
She told Su Tong: "Something happened at the Cultural Bureau! Your father and his entire department have to cooperate with the investigation and they won't be back tonight!"
Su Tong was startled and asked quickly:
"Is it serious? Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Lin Xiuqing replied, "It's the Cultural Bureau that has an issue. The people from the Ministry of Culture just need to cooperate. It has nothing to do with your father. It's okay! You can sleep peacefully!"
After hanging up the phone, Su Tong naturally thought of the call Lin Jiao made.
It is very likely that there are Peng Ye’s people in the Cultural Bureau. Now that something has happened in the Cultural Bureau, I don’t know if it is related to this case.
She only knew that Su Wenqian worked in the Ministry of Culture, but she had no idea what he did specifically. Now she realized that the Cultural Bureau is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Culture.
I heard that, of course, I should call the deceased Mr. Su grandpa...
Mr. Su also worked in the Ministry of Culture before he passed away, so Su Wenqian can be said to have inherited his father's business.
Su Tong always felt that this matter was somewhat coincidental.
Both Mr. Su and Su Wenqian work in the Ministry of Culture, but there might be someone under Peng's control in the Cultural Bureau...
in--
Could there be any connection?
After thinking about it, she felt a little disgusted with herself. Was she too sensitive?
I love to associate every little clue...
She went straight to wash up, then turned off the lights and went to bed…

Before going out the next day, Su Tong looked at the calendar, May 24th.
She thought about it, then took out the small notebook from her bag and flipped through it.
The last date I wrote down was May 25th, when I was going to call Shi Tou and Wu Qiuyu.
She took out a pen and circled the date twice more to remind herself to remember it tomorrow.
When I walked out of the yard, I saw the familiar jeep parked outside.
But the person in the car was not Qin Yi, but Lin Li.
Lin Li asked Su Tong to get in the car, and after she sat down, he said to her:
"The boss had a mission last night and hasn't finished it yet, so he asked me to come and take you to the Academy of Sciences. By the way, I want to tell you that he might be very busy these few days! Don't worry!"
Su Tong nodded and said, "I called your office yesterday, but no one answered! I thought you were on a mission!"
Lin Li said, "Well! Not bad! Everything is under control, it just takes some time! How is it? Are you adapting to work at the Academy of Sciences? Did that Zhai guy give you any trouble?"
"It's okay! He and I are not in the same group, so we rarely run into each other."
After the two chatted for a while, Su Tong suddenly asked:
"Is your mission yesterday related to the Cultural Bureau's affairs?"
Lin Li turned his head and looked at her, saying:
"You know this too? Are you well-informed?"
Is it really related? The police were not involved, and the military was directly dispatched... It shouldn't be a small matter!
Su Tong frowned, and then answered Lin Lidao:
"Su...Oh! It's, it's my dad..."
She was still a little uncomfortable with this word, even if she was just relaying it to others...
"My dad works in the Ministry of Culture. He didn't come home last night, so I know!"
Lin Li nodded and said, "The Ministry of Culture is a higher-level management department. They are cooperating with the investigation and are not closely related. Your father should be able to go home today."
When they arrived at the Academy of Sciences, Su Tong got off the car and Lin Li said to her:
"I'm leaving now! Don't worry! The boss will come to see you when he's done with his work. If you have any questions, just ask him then!"
Su Tong had to put away his curiosity.
However, she discovered that there were two more guards at the gate of the small courtyard today, making a total of four people.
Soon, those colleagues arrived one after another. Professor Wen called a small meeting with everyone and said some words of encouragement. Then everyone started to work step by step according to the arrangements.
Su Tong was always a little absent-minded, unable to fully concentrate...
I can’t tell why, but I just feel like everything that’s happened recently is weird.
It was like everything seemed normal, but something was wrong, and I couldn't tell exactly what was wrong...
It was a busy day, organizing and sorting out some basic documents and files.
There is a lot of professional knowledge that they need to be familiar with before they can conduct further research.
I went for a routine check when leaving the house, but still didn't see Qin Yi at the gate of the Academy of Sciences.
It seems he is not done yet.
When Su Tong returned home, Su Yu was at home, but Su Wenqian and Lin Xiuqing had not returned yet.
The brother and sister had dinner with their grandfather and talked about old times. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable time.
After dinner, Su Tong said she was going to the study to study. Su Yu followed her, took a book and sat on the small sofa to accompany her.
However, the brother and sister didn't watch for long before they heard the yard door open.
Su Wenqian and Lin Xiuqing came back together.
The two of them hurried out to greet him, and only felt relieved when they saw that Su Wenqian was in good spirits and Lin Xiuqing looked calm.
Su Tong went to the kitchen to heat up the food and put it on the table with Su Yu.
Su Wenqian and Lin Xiuqing were very happy and relieved to see that their two children had such a good relationship and were so filial!
Su Tong was a little impatient. When Su Wenqian brought the bowl and started eating, she asked:
"What happened in your unit yesterday?"
Su Wenqian then sighed and said:
“The Cultural Bureau was robbed!”
"To be precise, it wasn't a theft. A group of armed men broke into the archives of the Cultural Bureau. Fortunately, comrades from the military region were conducting drills nearby, so they avoided any losses."
Su Tong was very surprised and asked:
"An armed man? Breaking into the archives? Cultural Bureau...are there any important files?"
