"See, that's what I said. He was the one who stole the documents. Now the evidence is here. I don't think you have any excuses."
He Xiangzhe pointed at the file bag on the ground with an expression of "as expected".
But Song Shishi, who had been staring at him, saw a hint of pride in his expression.
If this document was really stolen by Mo Mingfei, this is an internal problem in their office. For any of them, it would ruin the reputation of their team. What is there to be proud of?
Mo Mingfei felt like he was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.
His eyes were full of disbelief.
"This... this is impossible. I really didn't steal it. Someone must have put it in my bag."
Mo Mingfei said this and looked up at Song Shishi, "Yes, that must be the case. Someone must have wanted to frame me and deliberately put this file in my bag."
His voice was trembling and crying, and he waved his hands helplessly in the air, trying to grab something.
...
...
Seeing this, Xie Youan took a step forward and stood in front of Song Shishi.
"The evidence is irrefutable, and you still want to deny it!"
He Xiangzhe didn't give Mo Mingfei any chance to explain himself.
He turned his head to look at Xie Yushan and said anxiously: "Minister Xie, people who steal confidential documents like this must not be tolerated and must be severely punished."
Xie Yushan did not respond, but just watched calmly from the side.
As the team leader, Xie Youan frowned at this time, looking at Mo Mingfei with disappointment in his eyes.
In fact, between He Xiangzhe and Mo Mingfei, Xie Youan has always been optimistic about Mo Mingfei.
Although Mo Mingfei is young, he is reliable and willing to endure hardships. His only shortcoming may be his impulsive personality.
Although He Xiangzhe did not make any major mistakes in his work, he was just an old hand. He only did a little bit of work every day and was often unwilling to do anything and always found various excuses.
Originally, Xie Youan was thinking about promoting Mo Mingfei to be the team leader of their group after he was successfully promoted, but now...
All that's left is a sigh.
"I...I was really wronged. I have no idea how this document bag got into my bag."
Mo Mingfei finally found his voice, and his words were full of helplessness and anxiety.
He Xiangzhe crossed his arms over his chest and said persistently, "Don't keep saying the same thing over and over again. The evidence is right in front of you, but you're still being stubborn. Who will believe you?"
After saying that, without waiting for Mo Mingfei to speak, He Xiangzhe continued: "Don't forget what you said before. The file was found in your backpack. I am still waiting for you to kneel down and apologize to me."
He Xiangzhe's voice was sharp, and every word he spoke was like a knife, stabbing Mo Mingfei's heart.
"He Xiangzhe, why are you pushing me like this?"
Mo Mingfei almost roared out these words.
But after he finished speaking, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then he looked as if he had realized something.
He pointed at He Xiangzhe and said, "Oh... I see. I was wondering why you were so abnormal today. It turns out that you planned all this. Am I right?"
"Don't be so naive. You are unwilling to kneel down and apologize to me, but you start to make random accusations. Do you think everyone is stupid? I left the office before you."
He Xiangzhe was certain that Mo Mingfei had no evidence and was not panicked at all.
"Comrade He, we are all colleagues, please don't make things too awkward. Besides, Comrade Mo doesn't look like that kind of person. Could there be some misunderstanding? We haven't investigated it clearly yet, and you are..."
Su Yao couldn't bear to see Mo Mingfei's desperate look.
She and Mo Mingfei are neighbors. Speaking of which, Mo Mingfei is also quite pitiful.
Everything Mo Mingfei has now was obtained by him paying ten times more than others.
Now seeing him end up like this, she couldn't bear it.
He Xiangzhe didn't wait for Su Yao to finish, and immediately retorted: "You are too naive. Some people are good at disguising themselves. Comrade Su, you can only know the face but not the heart. Now that the evidence is in front of us, what misunderstandings can there be?"
Song Shishi was doubtful and always felt that this matter was not that simple.
She quietly walked to Xie Yushan and whispered a few words in his ear. Xie Yushan nodded at her, and then Song Shishi turned around and left quietly.
No one noticed the whole process except Xie Youan.
While everyone was watching the fun at the end of the corridor, Song Shishi went straight back to the office.
It is impossible for someone to steal documents without leaving any trace.
She searched for a long time at Mo Mingfei and He Xiangzhe's workstations, and finally her efforts paid off. She found a small piece of paper with words written on it under Mo Mingfei's workstation.
She was just about to check what was written on the scrap of paper herself when she heard some noise outside the office.
I think the matter of Mo Mingfei should have a result.
Song Shishi quickly collected the scraps of paper and returned to her workstation.
As soon as she sat down, the office door was pushed open.
Xie Yushan led Mo Mingfei, He Xiangzhe, and Xie Youan back to the office and said seriously, "This matter needs further investigation. Comrade Mo Mingfei is the most suspected person at the moment, so he needs to be isolated and guarded for the time being. Everyone else should work as usual. In addition, before the final investigation results come out, no one is allowed to discuss this matter privately."
"The evidence is all in front of us. Why not just fire him and hand him over to the relevant authorities? What else is there to investigate?"
He Xiangzhe muttered in dissatisfaction.
Xie Yushan glanced at him sideways, and He Xiangzhe immediately pursed his lips and shut up.
Xie Yushan snorted coldly and ignored He Xiangzhe. He said to Mo Mingfei who lowered his head: "Follow me."
After Mo Mingfei was taken away by Xie Yushan, the Translation Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs seemed to have returned to its usual busy state.
Song Shishi almost never leaves her workstation now. Even if she is just at the office door, she will lock up the documents before leaving.
As the saying goes, "Every failure makes you wiser."
After everyone got off work that day, Song Shishi watched He Xiangzhe leave the compound of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and then walk towards Xie Yushan's office.
She didn't notice Xie Youan's hesitation to speak behind her.
"Thank you, Mr.
"Come in!"
Xie Yushan's response soon came from the office.
Song Shishi pushed the door open, closed it, walked to Xie Yushan's desk, and placed the scraps of paper she found directly in front of Xie Yushan.
"I found this scrap of paper under Mo Mingfei's workstation, but I recognize the handwriting of Mo Mingfei and He Xiangzhe. The handwriting on this scrap of paper is He Xiangzhe's, and the content on the scrap of paper is a project that Mo Mingfei was in charge of some time ago."
Because when Xie Youan gave the project to Mo Mingfei, he also emphasized the importance and confidentiality of the project, so Song Shishi was deeply impressed.
