After listening to the old man's words, Liang Jianjun thought that this method was quite good and agreed: "Yes, we should keep her in solitary confinement for two more days to prevent her from running around." Liang Yiyi was really stupid this time. She still had things to do? How could she be put in solitary confinement? And it would be ten days at a time, not even one day. Otherwise, by the time she was released from solitary confinement, the opportunity would be gone. So she hurriedly pulled the old man's arm and started to act cute and adorable, "Grandpa, Grandpa, please don't put me in solitary confinement. I admit my mistake. Please forgive me this time and I promise that I will never do it again. Or you can wait until I finish the exam before punishing me. Is that okay?" "Who are you trying to fool? You will go to the army after the exam. How can I punish you?" The old man simply turned his neck away and didn't even look at Liang Yiyi, with a look on his face that he was not fooled. "Grandpa, you'd better take a look at the things I brought back first. It's not too late to talk about the confinement after you've seen them." Liang Yiyi saw that the old man was not going to give in on this matter, so he quickly changed the subject.
Seeing that he had scared her enough, the old man remembered that he still had some important things to do. He sat down on the chair, put on his reading glasses on the table, and took out the documents to read. The old man read faster and faster, and when he finished reading everything, his hands were shaking. "I almost delayed something important because of my anger with this girl. Jianjun, come and take a look." After saying this, he closed his eyes and thought deeply.
Liang Jianjun walked over, picked up the documents on the table, and began to flip through them page by page. When he got to the end, he exclaimed in surprise, "Dad, Zhang Jingye is on this list too!"
Liang Yiyi asked again: "How is your relationship with him? Have you ever had any conflicts with him, or have you ever competed with him, or have you ever had any opinions or looked down on him?"
Liang Jianjun thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Jingye and I do have some friction at work. Disagreements are normal. After all, people have different ideas. If there are any opinions, we can just resolve them privately. I've also made a lot of concessions to him."
"Dad, have you seen the weapon design drawings in there?" Liang Yiyi asked again.
Liang Jianjun didn't understand. "What drawings? I don't have any," he said, flipping through the pages in his hand. The old man then picked up the briefcase and rummaged through it again, finally finding the weapon design. He glanced at it and handed it to Liang Jianjun. Liang Jianjun took the blueprint and within two seconds, he exclaimed, "How could this happen? How could this happen? This is a new weapon our military's R&D personnel just developed. We haven't even started mass production yet, and how could the blueprint have leaked?" The information on this blueprint was extremely important. It would greatly enhance the unit's combat capabilities and was currently the most advanced in the world.
Liang Yiyi interrupted him, "Dad, how long has this blueprint been out?" "It was just developed last Friday, and I submitted it that day. How did it end up in the hands of the Japanese in just a few days? It seems this Ryoda Shinji is a spy from Japan lurking in our territory." Liang Jianjun was in shock, his thoughts in a mess. He glanced at the old man, who nodded.
"Grandpa, not only did I take these things last night, I also overheard a conversation about how they're going to attack my second brother at next Monday's land auction. And it wasn't because of the auction. So, you're saying they first planned to kill me in an accident, then assassinated my second brother, and even stalked my eldest brother. It wasn't because of company competition. He's a spy, and we didn't offend him, so why would he do this?" Spies are supposed to be low-key and shouldn't cause so much trouble. Liang Jianjun was also puzzled, so he asked, "What do you think caused him to do such a counterintuitive thing?"
"I've considered many reasons, but they all seem a bit far-fetched. So, the least plausible one is the most plausible. Ryouda Shinji is in cahoots with someone in the military, who provided him with the map. Besides the necessary conditions he'd agreed to, Ryouda Shinji must also do something for him. And this person who provided the map has a grudge or vested interest in Dad, leading to the murders of my second brother and me, and possibly even my eldest brother, though they haven't yet carried out their plan against him. Because my eldest brother is currently on leave, they can't act. If anything happens to the three of us, Dad will be completely distraught and lose his mind. He might frame Dad, claiming he stole the map. Then, he could replace Dad. I think that's most likely his ultimate goal." Liang Jianjun slammed the table and said, "Yes, that's the way it is. Since only a limited number of people have access to the map, and if anything happens to my children, I'll definitely lose my mind. I don't even know what I'll do. Then, I'll be the scapegoat, and that person will have the chance to replace me."
At this point, the old man chimed in, "Don't forget, although you're younger, you've already gained enough experience. You're the most likely candidate for promotion this time. But if you're scapegoated, who's the most likely replacement? When the head of a company gets in trouble, it's the deputy who takes the helm."
"Now everything is explained. Why would someone want to harm your three children? Why is this picture in the hands of Ryoda Shinji? Why is the name "Zhang Jingye" on this list?" Liang Yiyi said.
Hearing this, the old man looked at Liang Yiyi with a deep gaze and asked, "What do you want us to do if you hand these things over?"
"What we need to do now is for you and my father to report this matter immediately. However, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, it would be best if the people on the list were arrested and investigated together with Suzuta Shinji after next Monday. As for Suzuta Shinji, don't worry. I'll know any slightest movement, because I've installed a small bug in his study. I'll definitely be able to detect anything he wants to move. And regarding this blueprint, I don't think Suzuta Shinji has yet to hand it over to his superiors. If his superiors have it, then it would be useless for him to keep it in the safe. Another point is that he won't be handing it over to his superiors anytime soon. I heard him say it's his life-saving device, so he will definitely wait until the assassination attempt on my second brother is concluded before deciding where to send it. If it succeeds, he'll hand it over, which would be a great achievement. If it fails, he can use it to negotiate for his own interests. So, so far, this blueprint hasn't been truly leaked," Liang Yiyi analyzed calmly.
