Chapter 1677: IQ Suppression Is the Deadliest
Gu Nianzhi’s gaze swept lightly across Wen Shouyi’s face. She immediately said with a smile, “So Dean Wen thinks there should be something in the secret room? But this place is empty. Where did it go? It can’t have flown away on its own, right?”
Wen Shouyi’s smile froze for a moment. She quickly said, “Don’t change the concept. This isn’t a secret room at all. Where did that come from?”
“I mean, according to Dean Wen, a secret room should be a place to hide things, right?” Gu Nianzhi turned on the courtroom questioning mode again.
Wen Shouyi frowned. “I already said this isn’t a secret room.”
“I’m just confirming what you mean. A secret room should be a place to hide things. You just have to answer yes or no.”
Wen Shouyi wanted to deny it, but Xie Qingying had already silently turned the camera towards her.
The screen was filled with bullet screens that blocked the screen completely.
Wen Shouyi calmed down and said lightly, “Of course. Why else would I need a secret room? But this is really not a secret room.”
Gu Nianzhi slowly walked in and stood in the middle of the room. She turned around and faced the corner sofa in front of her. She said, “Major General was sitting on the corner sofa in front of us for almost 24 hours.”
He Chengjian’s expression became darker and darker.
He put his hands behind his back and rubbed his thumbs against each other unconsciously. He thought to himself, there must be something here, but they had already moved it away before they came, or even earlier…
At the thought of this, He Chengjian reached out to his personal secretary’s shoulder and knocked a few times. It seemed like he was just patting his shoulder, but in reality, he had already sent out a series of commands using the modified Morse code.
“Seal the hospital’s main entrance. Only entry is allowed and no exit.”
He Chengjian’s personal secretary understood and secretly sent a message to his men outside, asking them to set up a barricade at the hospital’s main entrance and back door.
Gu Nianzhi walked around the secret room a few more times and said, “This is also a hospital room. May I ask, Director Wen, are there surveillance cameras here?”
Wen Shouyi smiled warmly and said, “This is only an empty room, so there are no surveillance cameras installed.”
“Is that so?” Gu Nianzhi stopped in front of Wen Shouyi and said without batting an eye, “Are you sure?”
Wen Shouyi nodded heavily and said confidently, “I’m sure. This is just an empty room, there’s no need to install surveillance cameras.”
In other words, what had happened here is like a wild goose passing through water; without leaving a trace.
“Director Wen is amazing.”Gu Nianzhi praised and gave her a thumbs up. “May I ask how long have you been the Executive Director of the Qin Private Hospital Group?”
“About ten days.”Wen Shouyi stopped smiling and felt that something was wrong again.
Gu Nianzhi clapped her hands lightly and said in surprise, “Then how many hospitals are there in the Qin’s Private Group?”
Wen Shouyi’s heart sank and she pursed her lips tightly.
How could she have forgotten about this?
“Director Wen doesn’t Know?”Gu Nianzhi took another step forward and almost stood in front of Wen Shouyi. She was tall and looked down at Wen Shouyi. “Director Wen, if you don’t tell me, I’ll take it that you don’t know.”
Wen Shouyi opened her mouth, but in the end, she forced herself to say, “There are a lot of them. There are about seventy-eight such hospitals in the country.”
“So, how many of these buildings are there in the seventy-eight such hospitals?”
Wen Shouyi:”…”
“And how many of these rooms are there in these buildings?”Gu Nianzhi stretched out her arms and twirled around. “Director Wen, you can’t even tell me?”
“Then how can Director Wen be so sure that there are no surveillance cameras in this room?”
Gu Nianzhi stopped in her tracks and raised her voice.
Wen Shouyi was flustered and exasperated. She held back her discomfort and clenched her fists. “Because this room is old Mr. Qin’s ward, it’s different from the other wards, so I know very well. I know that there are no surveillance cameras in this room, so is this not okay?”
“Yes, of course it’s okay!” Gu Nianzhi beamed, “Director Wen has finally admitted that this room is part of old Mr. Qin’s ward, which means that this room is also a crime scene. You can’t use private property as a reason to reject our examination.”
“I request to check the electricity consumption of this room in the past ten days. If this room is really just an empty room, then its electricity consumption should be negligible.”
Gu Nianzhi remembered Lu Jin saying that the infrasound emission source required a lot of energy, which was electricity.
If it was just an empty room, then the electricity meter wouldn’t show anything out of the ordinary.
But in fact, there had once been a high-powered infrasound emission source in this room which was in operation continuously for 24 hours, the electricity consumption..
Wen Shouyi’s face instantly drained of all color.
“How is it? Director Wen, you’re not going to tell me that there’s no electricity meter in this room too, are you?” Gu Nianzhi put a hand on Wen Shouyi’s shoulder and laughed hysterically.
Wen Shouyi was furious. She pushed Gu Nianzhi’s hand away and said coldly, “I don’t know if there’s an electricity meter. You’ll have to ask the Electrician.”
Gu Nianzhi quickly turned to He Chengjian’s personal secretary and said, “Did you hear that? Director Wen has agreed to let us find an electrician to check the amount of electricity used in this room.”
He Chengjian’s eyes lit up. Even he couldn’t help cheering for Gu Nianzhi.
He had wanted to ignore it and search the entire hospital directly.
That way, he would still be able to find clues, but he wouldn’t be able to confirm the facts.
It was only natural for Gu Nianzhi to start with the electricity consumption in this room.
He Chengjian’s personal secretary was even more delighted. She quickly said, “We have plenty of electricians! Get to know the world’s number one engineering unit!”
He quickly waved his hand and called for the two most powerful electrical engineering experts in the engineering unit. “Did you hear what Lawyer Gu just said? Can you find out how much electricity this room has used in the past ten days?”
The two electrical experts quickly said, “Yes, Sir! We just need to check the direction of the electrical wires and we’ll know where the electricity meter is!”
“Then hurry up and check it!” He Chengjian’s personal secretary turned around and gave Gu Nianzhi a thumbs up. He smiled widely till his eyes squinted. “What’s the point of using brute force to crush someone? IQ is the deadliest thing!”
He even deliberately gave Wen Shouyi a contemptuous look.
When Wen Shouyi had taken over Gu Nianzhi’s position at the He family’s residence, this personal secretary had once been very respectful to her.
Now that she was kissing Gu Nianzhi’s ass, she in turn looked down on her.
Wen Shouyi closed her eyes and her face was so red that it looks like was about to bleed.
She forced herself to calm down and put her hands behind her back. Her right hand clasped her left wrist and started to tap lightly on her watch. She was also sending Morse code.
Wen Shouyi used to be He Zhichu’s personal secretary and had also received special training in intelligence work.
She was no stranger to these little tricks.
Huo Shaoheng’s eyes flashed as he saw Wen Shouyi’s arm tremble slightly.
Was she sending a message?
Huo Shaoheng’s fingers moved slightly, and a steel ball the size of a grain of rice shot out from between his fingers and directly hit Wen Shouyi’s right elbow joint.
At the same time, He Chengjian also caught a glimpse of Wen Shouyi’s arm movements. He casually flicked a coin over, and it hit Wen Shouyi’s left elbow joint.
Both sides came at the same time. Wen Shouyi’s left and right arms experienced a pain that felt like that they were on the verge of being crippled. Not only was her center of gravity unstable, but her entire body was about to lose consciousness.
She gritted her teeth and held back the scream that almost escaped her mouth.
However, her right hand could no longer send Morse code. Just like her left hand, it hung limply by her side.
She was sweating profusely. It was as if she had just been fished out of a river. She was drenched in sweat.
Fortunately, her assistant saw that the situation was not looking good and immediately supported her so that she did not fall to the ground.
At this moment, the two electrical experts from the engineering unit had already finished inspecting the wiring and successfully found the location of the electric meter.
Perhaps the person who designed these two secret rooms was too conceited and had never thought that someone would forcefully break into the secret room from the outside. Therefore, the wires inside were all self-contained. There was also an extremely powerful electric meter that was used as an electrical control.
“Reporting to the Chief! The electricity meter shows that these two rooms have been using an extremely high amount of electricity in the past two days. It shows that large-scale equipment has been used here before!”
Before his personal secretary could speak, He Chengjian had already given the order calmly. “Seal the entire hospital. Dig three feet into the ground and find the large-scale equipment for me! I want to see what large-scale equipment they have used to attack major general He!”
The three platoons surrounding the ward swiftly decreased to two platoons, and He Chengjian’s personal secretary was giving orders to mobilize more people.
If such a large equipment had not been shipped away, then it had to be in this hospital.
However, to be on the safe side, He Chengjian’s personal secretary also ordered to lock down the imperial capital’s land, water, and air traffic, to search for the mean of transportation to transport the large equipment. He did not spare any of them.
On the live broadcast video, the audience was mesmerized by the sudden turn of events, and cheered for Gu Nianzhi wildly.
Even a group of usually reserved nerds started having fan clubs for her.
If a man starts chasing after a star, there would be nothing for a woman to do.
Anyone who dared to say anything bad about Lawyer Gu would immediately be surrounded and attacked. They would be hung up and beaten 360 degrees on the Internet until the party was completely obedient. They would no longer dare to say anything unpleasant to Gu Nianzhi on the internet.
The Internet trolls that Wen Shouyi had bribed were not as strong as these real fans. Basically, the moment they opened their mouths, they would be judged by the Internet trolls. The tech nerds among men could even follow the clues to find the IP address of the companies that the Internet trolls belonged to and expose them online.
..
Xie Qingying was also very surprised. She said repeatedly, “Lawyer Gu is amazing! I’m also a fan!”
“Who would have thought that she could find so many clues in an empty room!”
“Let’s listen to director Wen’s opinion again.”
As Xie Qingying said this, she brought her live camera to Wen Shouyi.
Her smile turned cold. “Director Wen, aren’t you going to say a few words? What exactly happened in this room? Why did Major General He stay here for 24 hours and then fell into a coma?”
“How would I know!” Wen Shouyi was in so much pain till as if her tongue was straight, as she couldn’t speak clearly.
Xie Qingying didn’t know that Wen Shouyi’s two arms were almost crippled. She thought that Wen Shouyi was feeling guilty, so she sneered and asked, “Director Wen, are you not speaking because you regret saying too much just now?”
“If Director Wen knows what happened, please be merciful and let Major General He off.” Xie Qingying was as good as accusing that Wen Shouyi was the murderer…
Wen Shouyi felt all these were ridiculous and the pain in her arm finally eased up a little, she quickly said, “How would I know what’s going on? I don’t know why the electricity consumption here is so high either. I have to go back to hold a meeting and ask the management.”
“Yeah, ask them if it was done by the temporary workers…”Gu Nianzhi pouted disdainfully. “What else would you do besides letting the temporary workers take the blame for you?”
“I didn’t say it was a temporary worker.”Wen Shouyi looked at Gu Nianzhi calmly, “Lawyer Gu, you don’t have to say anything if you don’t want to. I’ve only been the Director for a dozen days, and you expect me to take care of everything. It’s too much to expect me to know the reason for the electricity consumption of an empty room.”
“Did I?” Gu Nianzhi pointed at herself, “You’re the one who personally confirmed that there’s nothing here. It’s just an empty room. We just checked the electricity consumption and see if it’s an empty room like you said. Isn’t that logical?”
“You did. You found the problem. I don’t know the reason, so it’s also logical for me to have a meeting to find out the reason.” Wen Shouyi imitated Gu Nianzhi’s tone and spoke at a speed and tone that was surprisingly similar.
Gu Nianzhi smiled meaningfully and patted Wen Shouyi on the shoulder again, “Lawyer Wen really admires me. I get it. You’ve been secretly practicing my speech for quite some time, haven’t you? It’s been hard on you. However, the most important thing in life is to have your own characteristics. Do you know what Handan steps means? Also, try to understand the meaning of the word “Dog” instead of “Tiger”.”
Wen Shouyi’s arm had just recovered a little, but when Gu Nianzhi patted it, it felt like it was about to dislocate, and her forehead broke out in cold sweat again.
She said almost intermittently, “I was just trying to be sarcastic like you. Lawyer Gu, can’t you tell? I’m very satisfied with myself. I’ve never thought of acting like anyone else’s way of speaking and actions.”
Gu Nianzhi scoffed and crossed her arms. “I only said that you were imitating the way I speak, not my actions. Don’t tell me you’re secretly imitating my way of doing things? Well, I have to charge you, or else you’ll be pirating!”
Wen Shouyi pursed her lips. “You have such a big face. Your ability to talk to yourself is getting better and better. I’ve never imitated anyone. I just said what I said, Lawyer Gu, don’t use the same tricks you used in court against me. It’s useless.”
“Useless? Wasn’t it quite useful just now?”Gu Nianzhi said with a grin.
She walked around Wen Shouyi and kept provoking her with her words. In reality, she was stalling for time in hopes of finding the two infrasound sources earlier.
Wen Shouyi knew what she meant. She was now in a difficult situation. She secretly guessed that Gu Nianzhi must have an expert behind her. Otherwise, how would she have discovered the location of the secret chamber?
The two secret chambers had existed for more than a decade, and no one had ever discovered them.
