Although the words were warm and polite, the place they ended up taking them to was not so friendly.
Information desk!
Only specific people are brought in for questioning in this place; ordinary people are not necessarily qualified.
That's true. The people under the management of the administration department all have official titles or ranks, so they are naturally different from ordinary people.
Gao Dan's gaze sharpened as he saw the words on the sign on the wall.
The person leading the way immediately felt this unsettling pressure:
"Ahem, Director Taka, I'm really sorry, we were just... following orders!"
Obey orders?
Who's here?
The most powerful person in the entire management department is none other than Minister Gu Ziling. Now, Gu Ziling is not here, and even if she were, she wouldn't bring her own elder brother to the interrogation room for questioning.
And this person just said—"Follow orders!"
Whose orders are we following? Whose orders are we doing?
Gao Dan is quite intelligent. He immediately picked up on the clues in the man's words, which led to his question just now.
"Ahem...ahem, our head of headquarters."
No wonder!
If that's what the headquarters director said, then it makes sense.
Gao Dan didn't say anything more, and his face returned to its usual calm.
"Let's go," said the exit.
"Okay, go this way, Gao Suo, it's just around the corner, it's not far."
hehe.
It's not far, just one building. How far could it be if you go around in a circle?
Fortunately, we soon turned the corner and arrived at the door, where the person who had led the way stood and knocked.
"Minister, Director Gao has arrived."
A voice quickly came from inside:
"Come in."
Obtain permission and orders from the people inside:
"Sir Gao, you can go in now," he said to Gao Dan.
"Are you going in?" Gao Dan took two steps forward and suddenly asked as he reached the door.
Forehead?
The man was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand in surprise:
"No, no, I won't go in. You can go in, Director Gao."
The people inside are no ordinary people; many management staff members might work their entire lives and never have the chance to meet this headquarters director.
How could a junior employee dare to casually meet with the big boss?
Of course, you should avoid it as far as possible.
"Then you can go ahead and get busy."
As for why Gao was so approachable today... well, there is a reason, but it's not entirely clear at the moment.
The interrogation room wasn't as bad as I'd imagined. There were no tortures or anything like that; it was just a table and a few chairs.
When Gao Dan entered, he immediately saw the person sitting in the interrogation position, hunched over, as if looking at something:
"Minister!" he called out.
Upon hearing the voice, the person looked up and turned around, his face full of smiles, seemingly without any malice. Of course, Gao Dan was well aware that one cannot judge a person solely by their appearance.
"Surname Gao?" The two had never met before, and their conversation was filled with awkwardness.
The head of the management department was only two levels below Dean Gu. To Gao Dan, he was indeed a leader of considerable influence, so naturally he wouldn't go along with the conversation.
"I am Gao Dan. I heard the minister is looking for me?"
Gao Dan came to the management department intending to investigate some files, but as soon as he entered, he was led here. Obviously, the other party was looking for him, so there was no need to question anything further.
"Sit!" the man said, pointing to the chair beside him.
Although the two were somewhat unfamiliar with each other, Gao Dan was naturally not foolish enough to sit in the chair opposite him. Since the minister had spoken, it would be impolite to refuse.
