I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 708: The Last One to Resign
Ye Chen glanced up at him and noticed that Anying seemed to be in a fairly good mood at the moment.
At least it proved that the room was quite satisfactory to Anying.
After all, she was a woman, and no matter how strong she appeared to be on the outside, the tender side of a little woman was always preserved in her heart.
"How is it, are you satisfied with the room?"
"Not bad, overall, it's pretty good, and although the room isn't as big as yours, I think it's enough for just me. Plus, there's a small compartment inside, which is perfect for taking a break when needed."
"Good, that's really nice. By the way, do you need anything else? Let them purchase it for you as soon as possible, no need to be polite, this will be your office from now on."
"I've already made a list and given it to the security guards, who have already left with it."
"Ok, I got it."
"By the way, I tried to probe for some information from the security guards, unintentionally or not, but I found they are very tight-lipped. Whenever I bring up anything about Captain Yang, they unanimously reveal nothing."
"See, I told you, Captain Yang had already bought off all his security guards below him. So, we can't find out anything from here."
"That's indeed troublesome. There's no breakthrough from the security guards, but I feel if we could find one, it could potentially expose everything."
"That's not necessarily true. For instance, I've just looked through these personnel files, these are from the previous security staff. Take a look."
While talking, Ye Chen tossed over some of the files.
Anying came over directly and quickly skimmed through the contents in about two or three minutes.
"This one with the longest tenure here stayed for a whole 13 years."
"Yes, that should be the first file they gave me. He served for 13 years, and the person after him served for eight years. The tenures of the people after them got progressively shorter, especially recently, the replacements have been even more frequent."
"That's right, I remember the old man mentioned it before. It's probably because of the haunting incidents, so they hired people who couldn't investigate the matter and ended up resigning."
"Moreover, it's apparent from all their experiences that they are not very extensive. Especially the first two, who had quite a bit of experience, but those that came afterward, I noticed their social backgrounds are almost blank. Some, although having some work experience, don't seem to be much relevant to security work."
"So, there are serious recruitment issues with these people, so much so that I suspect if someone intentionally placed them there?"
"Now looking at it, it just might be the case. Moreover, all those who came here are probably manipulated by someone behind the scenes. Have you noticed? The last three people were merely passing through, maybe staying for just one or two months or even two to three months, but the person before them stayed for a full three years."
"Uh-huh, I've seen this person, he looks to be about 40 years old, and he seems rather knowledgeable. It's just unclear why he would suddenly leave his job."
"There is also some introduction about how he accomplished a lot during his tenure and invented many things for the company, especially concerning security issues he cared a lot about."
"Exactly, why would such a capable person be pushed out? I think there must be something significant behind it,"
"Or this person's interests conflicted with someone else's, and they intentionally kicked him out, or someone outside offered him a high salary, so he chose a better development path."
"If it's about high salary, I don't think it's the case because this company is a leading enterprise locally. If they can pay salaries that can hire these people, then it's unlikely any other place could offer more."
"Right, so the only explanation might be that this person touched on some people's vested interests, and when these interests are at stake, they surely won't let everything slide so easily."
"That explains it, no wonder these people were just briefly illuminated, especially in recent days. So now, even if you figure this out, do you still plan to contact them?"
"Impossible, let me tell you, trying to find them is an extremely difficult task. These people have already disappeared and it's very possible that after being utilized by someone, they were made to leave the city."
"Actually, you don't need to start with these people. I think it's best to look into the employees who have resigned. Typically, when someone leaves a company, their file is surely kept and sealed. You should find the person last to leave here, and the reason for departure, I believe that's worth our investigation."
"You mean, the person who left was kicked out by Captain Yang?"
"Exactly, Captain Yang certainly has the authority to replace these security guards. If someone is not to his liking or opposes him at every turn, he definitely won't keep them around. So, the person who was kicked out should be our breakthrough clue."
"Really, if you hadn't mentioned this, I wouldn't have realized it, and I've overlooked this matter. Right, either this afternoon or tomorrow when I'm free, I'll go ask for the records of these last departing employees. Maybe from them, we can truly find a breakthrough."
