Chapter 176 Framed
"I'm really sorry, Minister Deng!" Chen Qingrong bowed and apologized.
Minister Deng saw his attitude and couldn't get angry anymore, so he said irritably, "Okay, it's not entirely your fault. It's also my fault for not having confidence in our partners. So that's it. I'm so unlucky that my pants got torn. Damn it."
He went away swearing.
After he left, Chen Qingrong bent down and picked up the torn trouser leg cloth.
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Qi Long happily came to the lounge. There were already several leaders from other departments in the lounge, so Qi Long greeted them with a smile.
Then he came to the massage chair in the middle and sat down. As soon as he sat down, he felt something was wrong under his butt.
He reached down and pulled out a thumbtack from the interlayer of the seat cushion. A piece of trouser leg cloth was stuck on the thumbtack, and at the very bottom, a yellow slip of paper was pierced through.
Qi Long opened the note and screamed when he saw what was on it.
"Who did it, ahhhh, who!"
……
There was an explosion inside Chenzhu Company.
The deputy director of the design department and the chairman's nephew went to the chairman's office to file a complaint. The evidence he presented showed that someone had placed thumbtacks under the mezzanine of the massage chair in an attempt to murder him.
The reason why he was so sure that it was a murder was that the yellow piece of paper tied to the thumbtack had his birthday written on it and a big word "death".
Because it was printed out, there is no way to determine who wrote it by looking at the handwriting, but this is already a taboo.
Although nowadays we are all about breaking feudal superstitions and not believing in them, but when it really happens to you, who can remain calm?
It is said that Qi Long cried bitterly in his uncle's office and begged his uncle to catch the criminal.
Very well then, let’s investigate, and we must investigate thoroughly.
After the chairman gave the order, he began to investigate each department one by one.
Because there is no surveillance video in the lounge, no one knows who placed the thumbtack and the "spell". The only clue now is the half piece of cloth from the trouser leg of the suit pants.
What’s more, as soon as this news was announced, according to an “informed source”, Director Deng from the Marketing Department actually had a tear in his trousers!
The chairman immediately ordered Minister Deng to come and see him. After Minister Deng arrived, Qi Long compared the piece of trouser leg cloth with his trousers, and it was indeed on his trousers!
"Son of Gun!" Qi Long cursed on the spot, "I have no grudge against you, why do you want to hurt me? Why, wyh!"
Minister Deng was completely panicked and quickly explained, "Chairman, Qi, Deputy Director Qi, I swear, I swear this matter has nothing to do with me!"
"It has nothing to do with you?" Qi Long grabbed his collar and cursed, "If it has nothing to do with you, why is there a piece of your pants torn? Why are they in the same place as the curse and the thumbtack?"
"You must be jealous of my beauty. You want to kill me, right? Fuck you!"
"I, it really has nothing to do with me!" Minister Deng was about to cry out of grievance. He suddenly thought of something and said quickly, "I, I remember that I went to the lounge today, but I was talking to someone in the design department named, oh, Chen Qingrong!"
"It was Chen Qingrong from the design department who came to see me. He told me that the massage chair we placed in the lounge seemed to have a leakage, so I went with him to check it out!"
"The reason these pants are torn is because he tripped and bumped into me, and I didn't pay attention and scraped the wall. Yes, I remember that I didn't take this piece of trouser leg cloth with me when I left. He must be framing me!"
"Chen Qingrong?" Qi Long was stunned for a moment, then denied it without a second thought, "He is a very handsome, very gentlemanly boy. He has no grudge against you, why would he frame you?" "He, he wants to get promoted!"
"Do you think I'm stupid? He's in the design department. Even if he wants to get rid of his immediate superior to get promoted, he should get me or Director Tang. Why would he get rid of you, the director of the marketing department?"
"I, I..." Minister Deng didn't know what to say for a moment, but he always felt that this matter was related to Chen Qingrong, so he said, "Then let him come and confront!"
The chairman interrupted at this time, "Xiaolong, let Chen Qingrong come."
"Oh, okay." Qi Long took out his cell phone and made a call.
Later, Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru came together.
"Hello, Chairman."
Tang Xiaoru shouted first.
The chairman was stunned. "Why is Director Tang here too?"
Tang Xiaoru said calmly, "I heard that Director Deng from the Marketing Department claimed that Chen Qingrong had framed him. After all, Chen Qingrong is from our Design Department. This is about the relationship between the two departments, so I have to come and take a look."
The reason she gave was very sufficient, in fact, she was just worried about Chen Qingrong.
She was afraid that Chen Qingrong, who was alone and weak, would really be framed.
"I see." The chairman's expression did not change, and he asked Chen Qingrong, "Chen Qingrong, did you go to the lounge with Minister Deng today?"
Chen Qingrong nodded, "Yes, Chairman. I went to the lounge to lie down for a while during lunch, and I felt that the massage chair in the lounge seemed to have some leakage. I thought that this massage chair was sent by the manufacturer under our company after all, so I should report this matter to Director Deng of the Marketing Department, so I went."
"Then after you and Minister Deng went to the lounge, did you accidentally trip over him?"
"Yes, I was totally not paying attention at the time. I tripped and bumped into Minister Deng, and accidentally tore Minister Deng's pants. I'm very sorry for that."
"I wanted to pay compensation at the time, but Minister Deng did not bear grudges and did not let me pay. I was very touched. I felt really warm in my heart to have met such a good leader like Minister Deng."
"Don't flatter me yet." Minister Deng interrupted, "Let me ask you, after I left, did you pick up my torn trouser leg cloth, put it together with the thumbtack and the curse to frame me?"
Chen Qingrong was shocked and said quickly, "Minister Deng, this is unfair! Even if I had ten times the courage, I would not dare to do this!"
He looked at the chairman and the other two again, "Chairman, Director Tang, Deputy Director Qi, I am just a small worker. How could I dare to wrongly accuse a minister? Besides, what good will this do me?"
"Minister Deng and I have no grudges against each other. I must have a motive for framing him, right? Chairman, please understand!"
The chairman fell silent.
Qi Long sneered at Minister Deng and said, "Mr. Deng, you have heard what Chen Qingrong said, right? Now tell me, what is there about you that is worthy of him framing you? What hatred or grudge does he have against you? Tell me!"
"me……"
