"I have the exact opposite impression of you. Let me tell you, this Captain Yang is not responsible at all, and he only takes care of superficial tasks. Privately, he's not at all what you guys imagine."

"What? Not what we imagine? That shouldn't be the case, right? No one before has ever said that."

Guo Hongyu seemed somewhat perplexed.

For some reason, when Guo Hongyu said this, Ye Chen really found it somewhat amusing.

Although Ye Chen hasn't had much experience in the business world, he always believed that to blindly believe everything just based on one-sided stories from others is truly baffling.

Perhaps, it's because Guo Hongyu is a bit too young, and thus lacks some social experience; he might not have enough of it yet.

"I'm telling you, since he has been able to stay here for over 10 years, he must be very cunning. Those under his charge have long been bought off by him, so they will only speak well of him and absolutely not utter a single bad word against him. Do you understand?"

"So, what you mean is, this Captain isn't at all like what I envisioned in my mind?"

"That's right, it should be like that. Also, did you notice this detail when we just went in?"

"Detail? I really didn't catch that. Brother Ye Chen, what exactly is it? Please tell me."

At this point, Guo Hongyu truly seemed very intrigued.

By nature, Guo Hongyu greatly admired Ye Chen's way of handling things, and now, having learned that Ye Chen spotted some details inside, naturally made Guo Hongyu very eager to hear more.

"Tell me, did you rarely visit the surveillance room before?"

"It's not that I barely went; generally, I wouldn't go there unless something came up, but sometimes I might have gone there due to some issue, but overall, those times were few and far between."

"Actually, after we got off the elevator, the control room immediately received a signal. They could see clearly when we arrived, how many of us there were, and who came."

"That's true, there are cameras all over the place, so they must be able to monitor all these things."

"So, they only needed enough time to prepare, and then tidy up everything inside. What we saw when we entered was just the scene they set up for us."

"Gather everything up? I don't understand what you mean."

"If I'm not mistaken, before we entered, I suspect these people were probably playing poker."

"What? Playing poker? That's impossible. The company strictly prohibits it. Especially during work hours and at their positions, they are absolutely not allowed to leave their posts. How could they be playing poker?"

"After I entered, I saw one of the security guards with a bulging pocket, and when I went over to take a look, I found it was a deck of cards."

"Also, in another guard's pocket, I saw some money. Clearly, it seems they hurriedly grabbed the money from the table and stuffed it into their pockets without even having time to organize it properly."

"What about Captain Yang?"

"Captain Yang, let's not even mention him. His demeanor might have seemed calm, but there were some small details in front of me that gave him away."

"Detail issues? What happened? From what I heard him telling you just now, it seemed quite smooth, and also, he was very clear when introducing."

"Didn't you notice? When he was introducing things to me, it was completely like reciting an article—these things are deeply engraved in his mind, and he could utter them the moment he opened his mouth."

"However, he has been here for 10 years after all, so it's no doubt these things are ingrained in his heart."

"He does recite this stuff very proficiently, but there's one thing he might not have gotten right—because the actual operations of those machines didn't match up. When introducing the machines, he pointed at one machine while explaining the functions of another."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, although I'm not very clear about these things myself, I can generally understand a bit about them. So while he might fool a layman, even a slight understanding of these matters can expose significant flaws in his story."

"Besides these, is there anything else?"

"Of course, didn't you notice the button on his upper shirt pocket was undone?"

"That, well, if you hadn't mentioned it, I probably wouldn't have noticed. Yes, that shirt pocket indeed had a button which, under normal circumstances, should have been fastened, as it's a place for placing a badge."

"Yes, his was also undone, which also proves that there must have been cards put there. After we left, they likely continued to delve back into their game."

"Damn, I didn't expect this group of people to be doing such things under the guise of their jobs. If this is really the case, then this area really needs to be cleaned up."

"Since I've now taken over this matter, I will surely look into dealing with these three people, it's just that, with the current tangled situation here, if I want to act against these people, I must uproot them completely. If I can't pull out the root cause, even if I replace these security guards, it won't make any sense at all."

"So this so-called root, where exactly is it, at Captain Yang?"

"It's not just Captain Yang. I'm telling you, there must be others above Captain Yang."

"Other people? That should be it, generally speaking, with your current position, you are his direct superior, so, even if there were others, they would be former ones, but now those people have already left."

"No, it can't be that simple. And this security department, I tell you, the real full control has never been in their hands, there must have always been others controlling it."
