Chen Zhongzheng has been working to secure a spot at the exit from the fortress.
However, the department in charge of export management has not given a reply, which has made Chen Zhongzheng somewhat frustrated.
"Damn it! We've been held hostage again! Could it be that these people at the top have also been bribed by the Long Group?"
Chen Zhongzheng slammed his fist on the table in anger.
At this moment, Lu Yuan came in from outside, heard the sound, and glanced inside.
"Uncle Chen, who made you angry?"
Seeing that it was Lu Yuan who came in, Chen Zhongzheng sighed and pointed to a document on the table.
"The people at the exit of the high-rise area called me back again!"
Lu Yuan walked over, took the document, and glanced at it. It was an application to leave the underground fortress.
"It didn't pass again?"
"Yes! I even suspect that these people were bought off by the Long Group!"
"That shouldn't be the case! They have no connection with the Long Group, so they probably wouldn't side with the Long Group!"
"Who knew! The Long Group's reach is too far! We are no longer a match for them!"
"Haha! Uncle Chen, we don't need to be their opponents!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan sat down on the sofa and said, "By the way! I've been too busy lately! So, I'll give you Feng Yuanheng's phone number! You can contact him and see if you can get in touch with the higher-ups through him!"
"Huh? You mean Feng Yuanheng is a mole in the upper echelons?"
"Yes! He's currently infiltrated the Long Group to monitor its various activities!"
"Phew! I didn't expect the higher-ups to still be thinking about us here!"
Lu Yuan sneered: "Uncle Chen, you're overthinking it! They're just trying to prevent their men from doing anything that could threaten them! As long as they're not threatened, they wouldn't care even if all their men were stripped naked."
"So, should we have an official meeting with them this time, or should we talk to them privately?"
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go through official channels! After all, there's no need to hide these things anymore! Long Yue probably already knows about this! We'll see if the higher-ups are willing to get involved! Hopefully, they're not just as incompetent!"
"These damn bastards! I'm really fed up!"
Then Lu Yuan handed Feng Yuanheng's phone to Chen Zhongzheng, and then Lu Yuan went to the next room.
Hei Zi was engrossed in making a phone call when he saw Lu Yuan enter, and he gave a slight nod as a greeting.
After a while, Hei Zi put down the phone and looked at Lu Yuan, asking, "Why are you here? Weren't you busy today?"
Lu Yuan nodded gently: "I'm done with work! I came to see you!"
Hei Zi put down his work and rolled his eyes: "Come on! You'd come to see me for no reason? Okay, what's up?"
"I really have nothing to do! Can't I come here to rest for a bit?"
"Tch! I don't believe a single punctuation mark! Tell me or not! If you don't tell me, I have to go out and get busy!"
Where are you busy?
Hei Zi sighed and said, "Isn't this all because you arranged this for me? I've discovered you're really good at assigning tasks! You just leave the most difficult ones to me!"
"Huh? What do you mean? I don't think I've assigned you any work lately! You're making it sound like I'm some rich landlord!"
"Still denying it! Look for yourself!"
After saying that, Hei Zi handed the document in his hand to Lu Yuan.
After Lu Yuan took it, he immediately understood that he had previously arranged for the other party to investigate some situations within the Long Group, and now Hei Zi was the supervisor in charge of this matter.
"Alright! Tell me! What's been going on lately?"
"Sigh! The Long Group is very tightly managed now! Our investigation isn't going very smoothly; they seem to have discovered we're watching them! So we have to analyze a lot of information ourselves through documents! Of course, a lot of this information still needs to be verified!"
Lu Yuan nodded and casually flipped through the documents. A line of text caught his attention.
"Did the Long Group recently send a small team to the outer steel frame layer?"
"Yes! This small unit operates very stealthily. We've been outmaneuvered by them several times, and sometimes they even intercept our people in other ways, making our work very difficult! If you ask me, we should just ignore what the Long Group is up to! Why bother with it!"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "Of course we can't ignore it! I'm worried that that stupid woman Long Yue might do something stupid! By the way! What exactly are they doing at the steel frame level?"
"I don't know! But we recognized someone in their car! He looks like someone from the black market. I don't know if you've seen him before!"
After saying that, Kuroko brought over the laptop and took out a very blurry photo from it.
"Look! This is the guy! He used to be a small-time boss in the black market!"
Lu Yuan was stunned when he saw the photo.
Hei Zi also sensed that something was wrong with Lu Yuan, and sat down next to him, looking at him and asking, "What's wrong? Do you know this person?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right! I know this person very well!"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"My childhood friend! Chen Han!"
"Right, right, right! This person's name is Chen Han! I couldn't remember his name for a moment! Haha! What a coincidence! You actually know him! That makes things easier! Since he's your childhood friend, you must have a good relationship! Why don't you go ask him what Long Yue has been up to lately!"
