Chapter 118 Memory Extraction Crystal
Sheng Chunqiu looked at the document in Yan Shi's hand: "Director Yan, is there a problem with the content?"
Yan Shi concealed the doubt in his eyes, closed the file, and put it away: "It's nothing."
"Is there any other official business?" She looked at the remaining people in the conference room, her gaze sweeping over the documents on their tables. "Speak up, everyone."
The meeting room was silent.
Yan Shi: ...
She initially thought her subordinates were trying to overwhelm her with documents.
Now there's no sound again.
Lu Jian also lowered his head and remained silent, carefully using the document to cover his phone again before opening the group chat.
Great, others may not know, but everyone in the information department is slacking off.
[Come to headquarters and confront me if you dare: You're not in the meeting room right now; it's really tense inside.]
[Come to the General Administration and beat me up if you dare: The four bigwigs are all silent, and Director Yan's oppressive aura is so strong that I'm trembling even sitting at the very back.]
[AAA Finance Xiao Lian: Is it because I don't want to be in the meeting room?! Ugh, let's switch!]
[Waiting for the flowers to bloom: The unlucky guy who doesn't have permission to enter the meeting room but has to wait in the hallway is here]
[Waiting for the flowers to bloom: The corridor is also very oppressive right now because the big shots are having a meeting inside, and I don't know when they'll come out. My legs are numb from standing there.]
[No moon tonight: Don't peek at your phone screen on the street, the reflection is making your chin glow]
Lu Jian was startled and reflexively turned off his phone screen and looked up, just as he met Yan Ju's gaze.
Lu Jian: !
She forced herself to remain calm: "Director Yan, the Information Department has no other official business to report for the time being."
Yanju's gaze shifted away from her and toward Sheng Chunqiu and Bian Zheng on his right.
Sheng Chunqiu: "The Executive Office has no other official reports at the moment."
Bian Zheng: "The Control Department also has none at the moment."
Director Yan nodded slightly: "Meeting adjourned."
“Lu Jian will stay behind alone for a moment.”
Lu Jian's face slowly froze.
Bian Zheng chuckled and stood up first, saying, "Director Yan, I'll take my leave now."
Sheng Chunqiu glanced at Lu Jian without any emotion, then stood up and said, "Director Yan, I'll be leaving now."
After them, the remaining people in the conference room quickly left, and the conference room door closed with a soft click.
The conference room was empty again, with only Director Yan and Lu Jian remaining.
Lu Jian: "Director Yan, it's..."
They walked way too fast.
Why are they so slow when I ask them to do official business?
Before Lu Jian could come up with a suitable reason for slacking off in the meeting while sitting next to his boss, Director Yan suddenly asked, "Director Lu, does the Information Department's Finance Division have an employee named Ying Huan?"
Lu Jian: "Huh?"
She paused for a moment, then quickly realized, "Yes. Yinghuan works in the Finance Department's Coordination Office and graduated from Zhanzhou University."
Director Yan: "Was she there last night?"
Although he didn't know Yan Ju's intentions, Lu Jian recalled and replied, "Ying Huan... is here. The enemy attack hasn't started yet. When I arrived at headquarters, I saw Ying Huan queuing at the door."
Yan Ju suddenly chuckled: "That's interesting. Call Ying Huan over."
As he spoke, Director Yan took out his phone and dialed Lianxun directly: "Chunqiu, come to the conference room again now. Bring an investigator and the memory extraction crystal."
"Since everyone has their own version of events, let's just take a look."
Lu Jian's gaze sharpened.
Sheng Chunqiu had just left and hadn't gone far when, less than three minutes later, he returned to the conference room with a masked investigator and a memory extraction crystal.
"Director Yan." Her face was as calm as ever as she walked to Yan Shi's side and placed the crystal on the table.
Yanju glanced at her and said, "Hmm."
Ying Huan, panting, quickly knocked on the conference room door. As soon as she entered, she met the probing gazes of the three bigwigs.
Ying Huan stood there, tense and bewildered.
Yanju: "Yinghuan?" She slowly uttered the name.
Ying Huan: "Here!"
She immediately recognized the memory extraction crystal on the table and said somewhat nervously, "Is there something wrong with my memories from the past three days?"
She subconsciously looked at her direct supervisor, Lu Chu.
Yanju: "Let's watch it again on site." She didn't explain much. "Shadow, extract Yinghuan's memories from this morning."
Sheng Chunqiu looked Ying Huan up and down again.
Shadow nodded: "Understood."
The internal working principle of memory extraction crystals and recording stones is similar; both project a faint light screen.
The light screen initially displayed a sea of red. A sea of bright red.
The owner of the memory is staring blankly at his empty lower body.
Sheng Chunqiu's expression changed.
Director Yan opened the casualty report compiled by the Investigation Department, which Sheng Chunqiu had handed her during the meeting, turned to the page on serious injuries, and threw it on the table. She said in an icy tone, "It seems my memory is correct."
"Then, Sheng Chu, please explain. Why isn't Ying Huan, who was receiving emergency treatment at the medical center this morning, on this list?"
Lu Jian's expression changed as well.
Before Sheng Chunqiu or Lu Jian could speak, Director Yan turned to Ying Huan and said, "You go out first. Do not tell anyone who is not in this meeting room about what happened today."
The law responds.
Ying Huan nodded stiffly: "Okay."
She carefully closed the door as she left the meeting room, and the last thing she saw was Director Yan's lifeless eyes.
Author's note: The revisions aren't finished yet... but they will be completed in the next couple of days.
