Chapter 64 A chance encounter on the road
Through Zhang Yi's introduction, Jia Dongming immediately realized that Chen Jianfei was most likely an enemy spy hidden in the steel rolling mill.
However, considering Chen Jianfei's identity, Jia Dongming asked Zhang Yi with a serious face: "Zhang Yi! Do you dare to guarantee with your life that everything you just said is true?"
Zhang Yi heard Jia Dongming's question and saw Jia Dongming's serious expression. He answered with certainty, "Chief Jia! I swear on my life that if there is even a trace of falsehood in what I just said, I will die a miserable death."
Jia Dongming originally thought that his brother's death was just an ordinary industrial accident, but he didn't expect that it actually involved enemy spies. Facing Zhang Yi's oath, Jia Dongming asked Zhang Yi with a serious face: "Zhang Yi! The security regulations of the special workshop are that three people need to be on duty at the front and back doors. Even if you are on duty, you will not have the opportunity to enter the special workshop. How does Chen Jianfei plan to let you deliver things into the special workshop?"
When Zhang Yi heard Jia Dongming asking about Chen Jianfei's plan, he immediately introduced him to Jia Dongming: "Chief Jia! Actually, when Chen Jianfei came to me yesterday, I just thought that he was jealous of you taking over his position as section chief, so he came up with this idea to deal with you. It was not until he said that he would send someone to cooperate with me and help me lure the other two team members away that I began to doubt Chen Jianfei's identity and motives."
"After I left Chen Jianfei's office, I kept thinking about why Chen Jianfei targeted me. Until then, I thought that I was still a loner and was not good at communicating with my colleagues. I was alone every day. My situation was very consistent with the character of an enemy spy. In Chen Jianfei's mind, I was the most suitable person to take the blame."
"Considering that Chen Jianfei has worked in our department for seven or eight years, I don't know if other colleagues in the department have any relationship with Chen Jianfei, so I went to your home and found a kid who lives nearby and asked him to help me ask you out. At the same time, I was also worried that Chen Jianfei would suspect me, so I was extra careful when I came to see you."
"It turns out that Chen Jianfei really suspected me, so he sent someone to follow me near my house. Fortunately, I was more careful and finally found the tail following us. I pretended to go home to rest after shopping, and then climbed over the wall to find you."
After listening to Zhang Yi's detailed introduction of the whole story, Jia Dongming pondered for a moment before instructing Zhang Yi, "Zhang Yi! I already know about this matter. To avoid alerting the enemy, you will pretend to cooperate with Chen Jianfei tomorrow. As for the rest, I will take care of it."
Zhang Yi nodded immediately after hearing Jia Dongming's instructions and replied, "Chief Jia! I understand. If I have any new situation, I will report it to you as soon as possible!"
After hearing Zhang Yi's answer, Jia Dongming smiled and nodded to Zhang Yi, saying: "Comrade Zhang Yi! Let's keep in touch at any time, and you should go back and rest early."
After Zhang Yi left, Jia Dongming walked to his bicycle, unlocked it with his key, and then rode towards the courtyard.
As Jia Dongming pedaled his bicycle slowly on the road at night, he thought about what Zhang Yi had reported to him and muttered to himself, "After Engineer Xue died of a work-related injury at Dongxu, he was transferred away from the steel mill. Could this also be related to the accident at Dongxu?"
"If this is the case, then it means that there must be accomplices of Chen Jianfei inside the steel mill. Otherwise, considering the importance of Engineer Xue to the steel mill, the steel mill would definitely not agree to let him transfer to work somewhere else."
"Comrade! Which unit do you work for? Why haven't you gone home to rest yet so late?" Just as Jia Dongming was pondering Chen Jianfei's question in his mind, several police officers patrolling the street saw Jia Dongming riding a bicycle alone on the street and stopped him. One of the police officers shone a flashlight on Jia Dongming's face and asked him seriously. The flashlight made Jia Dongming unable to open his eyes. Facing the police's questioning, Jia Dongming blocked the flashlight with his hand and replied, "Hello, police officers! I am Jia Dongming, the security chief of the Red Star Steel Rolling Plant. I have something urgent to do, so I am going home so late."
The police heard Jia Dongming's self-introduction and learned that he was the security chief of the steel mill. They did not relax their vigilance because of what Jia Dongming said. The police who just stepped out to stop Jia Dongming said to him in a very serious tone: "Comrade! Please show me your work ID."
When Jia Dongming heard the police's request, he pulled out his work ID from his jacket pocket and said to the police, "Comrade! This is my work ID!"
"Guodong! What's going on here?" Just as the policeman was about to reach out to take Jia Dongming's work ID, a policeman came up to them on a bicycle and asked the policeman who intercepted Jia Dongming.
The police officer who intercepted Jia Dongming heard the officer's question and immediately reported to him: "Director Wang! We saw this comrade still on the street so late, so we went up to do a routine check."
Hearing the conversation between the two policemen, Jia Dongming suddenly felt that the voice of the policeman who had just arrived gave him a sense of déjà vu, and hurriedly asked tentatively: "Wang Dapao! Is that you?"
When Director Wang heard someone calling him by his nickname in the army, he was visibly stunned. He quickly parked his bicycle and walked quickly to Jia Dongming.
When Director Wang saw Jia Dongming sitting on the bicycle, he showed an incredible expression on his face. He shouted to Jia Dongming with a look of surprise: "Old Jia! I didn't expect it was you, kid. When did you retire and come back? Why didn't you write me a letter so that I could pick you up?"
Jia Dongming didn't expect that the owner of the voice was actually his old comrade-in-arms Wang Dapao.
Jia Dongming looked at his old comrade whom he hadn't seen for several years, parked his bicycle immediately, and introduced him to Wang Dapao happily: "Dapao! I just returned from military service a few days ago. The leader took care of me and assigned me to the steel rolling mill as the security chief of the steel rolling mill."
When Jia Dongming said this, he suddenly remembered that Zhang Yi had come to see him tonight, and quickly asked Wang Dapao, "Dapao! I didn't expect that you would be assigned to the public security department after you retired. By the way, which police station are you the director of now?"
"Thanks to the book friends for their clever tips, and also to all the book friends for their support!"
