He and Liu Lan were having a good time taking a bath when this old woman suddenly appeared and ruined everything.
Not only did it ruin his good deed, it almost exposed his scheme!
If it weren't for He Hongyang's help, he would have really been in a mess today.
They completely ignored Jia Zhangshi.
Approaching He Hongyang, she pretended to know nothing.
"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered here?"
Director Ma led his men and rushed in immediately.
The single room is this big.
After searching for a long time, I couldn't find a single hair.
"Director Li, were you alone inside just now?"
"Yes, this is a private room, so of course I'm all alone."
"Have you noticed anyone suspicious?"
"I've been showering inside ever since I arrived, so I can't see anything outside. How could I possibly find anyone suspicious?"
"Then why didn't you come out when we kept knocking on the door and there was such a loud noise outside?"
"The sound of the water was so loud that I almost fell asleep while soaking in it, and I didn't hear it at all."
"Didn't you hear the knocking?"
"This is my first time using a single room. I heard a knock on the door just now, and I thought it was someone knocking on the wrong door by mistake. Almost everyone here knows each other, so I didn't pay any attention to it."
Hearing his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Li Huaide was not in danger, and that there was no one inside at all.
Director Ma said angrily, "Didn't you just say with absolute certainty that you saw someone go in, and even said that Director Li was being threatened? I think you're just delusional and talking nonsense here."
Madam Jia was completely taken aback.
She was completely shocked.
wrong!
There must be a mistake!
She clearly heard the door open.
She was waiting for Li Huaide to come out, and was extremely alert, certain that she hadn't misheard.
"I'm sure I heard the door open; someone must have gone in."
He Hongyang immediately retorted, "Besides you, is there anyone else who heard this?"
"No."
Was there a second person present at the time?
"No."
"At your age, could it be that you have hearing problems and are mishearing?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Don't forget this is a bathhouse, with the sound of flowing water everywhere. Even young people can mishear things sometimes. How can you be sure you didn't mishear?"
"???"
"Your job here is to clean, so why aren't you cleaning during work hours? Why are you staring at these individual rooms? You don't happen to know that Director Li is inside, and you have some kind of idea about him, do you?"
In a panic, Madam Jia waved her hands hastily: "No, absolutely not!"
Fatty Wang said sternly, "Instead of working properly, you're thinking about all sorts of nonsense. I think not only are your ears not working properly, but your eyesight is also failing. I'm afraid that person isn't an enemy agent at all, but rather you've mistaken him for someone else!"
113. Old widow, are you teaching the police how to do things?
How can it be?
She firmly believed that she had neither misread nor misheard.
He simply went into the private room and checked it carefully.
There's nothing inside!
Look up at the ceiling.
Could the person be hiding on the ceiling?
Correct!
That must be it!
Having finally encountered such an opportunity, she absolutely refused to give up now!
"They might be hiding in the ceiling."
Hearing her say that, Li Huaide was so angry that he wanted to slap her twice.
"You mean, I colluded with the enemy, heard you knocking on the door, and then hid people in the ceiling?"
He Hongyang was the first to testify: "Director Li is definitely not that kind of person."
Fatty Wang quickly added, "I also testify, it's absolutely impossible!"
Madam Jia quickly shook her head.
"That was not what I meant."
"Then what do you mean?"
"Anyway, as long as you search it up, you'll understand everything."
He then looked at Director Ma and said, "The entire bathhouse is now sealed off, and the police are all here. Why don't we go up and search it? Maybe we can find some clues."
Director Ma also felt that this matter was most likely just Jia Zhangshi's conjecture.
However, he didn't want to let any clues slip by.
Since everyone is here, let's send someone up to search them.
"Men, search them!"
Upon hearing his words, Jia Zhangshi's courage immediately grew again.
He touched the bath ticket in his pocket.
Said excitedly.
"That enemy agent got in without a ticket."
"Now that I have her bath ticket, I just need to match the number of people with the bath tickets to find out who this person is."
She put it simply.
The bath tickets are all the same, so who knows whose is whose?
This Jia Zhangshi is simply endless.
They won't be satisfied until they've completely turned this place into a mess.
What bath tickets, what number of people? That's pure nonsense!
"The bath tickets are all the same, so how can anyone know whose bath ticket belongs to whom? By saying that, aren't you implying suspicion about everyone?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately objected.
"We clearly came here to take a bath, how did we become enemy spies?"
“We’re all neighbors, everyone knows each other. We all came in with tickets.”
“This 04 is issued to us by the steel rolling mill. They issue two copies every month. The mill keeps records of it. You can go to the mill to check.”
"I think Jia Zhangshi is just making trouble out of nothing. Is she so desperate to catch enemy spies that she's gone mad? We've searched everywhere here and found absolutely nothing."
Jia Zhangshi didn't care what people were saying about her.
She absolutely won't give up until she catches this person today!
He held up the bath ticket in his pocket.
"These are single-room bath tickets. They're not issued by your workplace; you can only buy them at the bathhouse."
"The private rooms were only available these last two days. We can find out who the bath tickets were sold to and how many were used today."
I didn't expect Jia Zhangshi's mind to work so quickly.
Li Huaide was shocked at the time.
He Hongyang gave me two bath tickets.
He gave one to Fatty Wang when he arrived, and the other to Liu Lan.
Actually, a single room only requires one bath ticket.
He was afraid something might go wrong, so he gave Liu Lan another one.
Liu Lan's document is now in Jia Zhangshi's hands!
If they really investigate and dig deep, they'll definitely uncover their secrets.
Fatty Wang was even more shocked.
He knew perfectly well who the private bath tickets were sold to and who was using them.
These private rooms were only set up yesterday.
Only five tickets were sold in total.
He Hongyang bought two tickets, Zhang Dajun from the street bought two tickets, and he gave the remaining ticket to his sister-in-law.
This is how to do?
If an investigation is conducted later, wouldn't it lead back to Li Huaide?
Wang Pangzi was so angry that he wanted to eat Jia Zhangshi alive.
Why is that old hag still bringing this up?
Does the matter between Li Huaide and Liu Lan have to be made public before it's over?
If that were the case, Li Huaide would hate him to death.
He looked to He Hongyang for help.
I hope he can help me get through this!
Li Huaide also stared longingly at He Hongyang.
Now he places all his hopes on him.
I hope he can help me out again!
He Hongyang never expected that Jia Zhangshi would be so crazy.
Like a mad dog, it's clinging to this issue and won't let go!
It seems she's trying to use this incident to turn her career around.
Little did she know that things were not as she thought at all.
If she knew the truth.
When she learned that the enemy agent she was so desperately trying to catch was Li Huaide's lover.
There are no enemy agents here at all.
They're having a date here.
Right now, Li Huaide is cursing her a hundred times, a thousand times in his heart.
She probably even wanted to die!
He Hongyang nodded to Fatty Wang, as if to tell him, "Just say I bought it, and leave the rest to me."
