Then, Sun Tao put on a smiling face and looked at everyone.
"I wonder how your evacuation preparations are going?"
At this moment, the man in the lead said, "Oh, everything is almost ready!"
"Oh, that's good! By the way, what do you need from me? Mr. Lu has taken everything from the warehouse!"
However, the other party smiled slightly and said, "Minister Sun, we didn't come to see you today because of this matter! We just wanted to have a talk with you!"
Upon hearing what the other person said, Sun Tao looked at them with a puzzled expression.
"Oh? You want to talk to me? What do you want to talk to me about?"
The other person casually got up and walked up to Sun Tao.
"It's like this! We've encountered a bit of a problem here, so we need Minister Sun's help!"
Sun Tao looked at the other person and thought for a moment before saying, "Oh dear! What a coincidence! I have a lot of work to do right now! Why don't you come back later?"
Since I don't know what they want from me, I can't just agree to their request.
Moreover, Sun Tao knew that the other party's contact with him was definitely not a simple matter; perhaps they wanted to test him.
Therefore, he had to pretend to be completely unaware.
The other party suddenly smiled and said, "Minister Sun, this matter is very simple! It's just dealing with a minor problem! It won't take you too long!"
After saying that, the other person put his hands behind his back, and the people next to him immediately stood up, each with a fierce look on their face, as if Sun Tao might be in trouble if he didn't go with them today.
But now Sun Tao had to pretend to be angry, otherwise the other party would really think he was trying to get close to them.
Moreover, if I am too weak, the other party might drag me down with them.
Sun Tao wasn't stupid; of course, he needed to consider everything carefully.
He glanced down at the time on his hand and said, "There are still three hours until the evacuation! You're just asking for trouble!"
After saying that, Sun Tao looked at the other group and angrily rebuked them, "Watch your attitude!"
The other person glanced at Sun Tao, then burst into laughter: "Haha! Minister Sun, don't be nervous, we really are here to see you! By the way, we heard you used to be a detective? Is that true?"
Upon hearing the other party suddenly bring up this matter, Sun Tao's heart tightened immediately.
Damn it, could these people have discovered something about me?
However, Sun Tao thought about it again and felt that it was unlikely, because he didn't seem to have revealed his affairs to too many people.
Moreover, only Lu Yuan and a few close confidants knew that he was a detective.
Thinking of this, Sun Tao's eyes darted around and he said, "What? I haven't worked in this industry for a long time! You've got the wrong person! Please leave!"
After saying that, Sun Tao gave the order to leave, but the group of people stubbornly surrounded him.
"Minister Sun, I'm sorry! You have to go today! But don't worry, we promise we won't harm you! Just cooperate with our work!"
Upon seeing their actions, Sun Tao immediately flew into a rage.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to kidnap me?"
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than he saw a man next to him say urgently, "Brother Song, why be polite with him! Just take him away! The higher-ups aren't giving us much time!"
The man nodded: "Okay! Let's go, Minister Sun! You've had a long journey! We promise you'll get plenty of benefits later!"
Then, the men revealed the daggers at their waists, signaling Sun Tao not to make any rash moves.
At this moment, Sun Tao suddenly realized that these people had become so arrogant, which was clearly different from his previous judgment.
In the end, Sun Tao could only nod: "Okay! You must guarantee my safety!"
"Don't worry! We guarantee your safety!"
Then someone came up and began to search Sun Tao's body.
The other party immediately pulled out the pistol from his waist.
The man glanced at the pistol and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Minister Sun, it seems you're quite careful these days! Carrying a gun at all times is dangerous, you might accidentally discharge it! I'll put it away for you!"
Seeing that the other party had put away his pistol, Sun Tao's face was filled with disappointment.
However, he sneered inwardly.
Hmph! You really think that's all I've got? I specifically saved this pistol for you!
So Sun Tao was forced to follow them to that precision equipment center.
Upon arriving at the location, I saw several people guarding the area outside, and some of them were sorting garbage bags to take back.
Under the dim light, Sun Tao could immediately make out some shapes on the surface of the garbage bag.
However, he didn't say anything, pretending that he hadn't seen it clearly.
At this moment, the captain of the guards pointed to the ground and said, "Minister Sun, the bloodstains here are a bit difficult to clean! Could you help me with that?"
Sun Tao looked at the blood on the ground, then bent down and pinched it.
The blood wasn't very thick to the touch, and it looked like it had just been drawn.
Sun Tao felt a chill run down his spine, already guessing that these people might have killed someone again in this place.
However, he didn't say anything. Instead, after examining the bloodstains, he said, "It won't be easy to clean so much blood! First of all, there's the smell of blood in this room!"
