Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 690

Chapter 690: Chapter 690: Poisoned by Someone

Huo Jingrui moved swiftly and quickly found the people meeting with Master Qiu at the warehouse, thanks to the portrait Yunyi had provided.

After secretly tracking them, it was discovered that these people were actually selling supplies under the table. They were different from the black market dealers; they were stealing factory materials by colluding with insiders and resorting to inside and outside coordination.

Of course, they dared not touch the genuine product warehouse; they targeted those semi-finished or defective items instead. The insiders deceived the higher-ups by underreporting, omitting, or duplicating reports. Master Qiu was about to retire in two years, and he probably thought that once he left, even if it were uncovered, the blame wouldn’t fall on him. After all, those warehouses were only audited once a quarter, mostly just a formality.

In order not to alert the culprits, Huo Jingrui decided with Director Feng not to involve the factory’s security department. After all, this wasn’t the first time they had done this, and they suspected that someone in the security department was also involved.

Otherwise, in the previous instances, how did they manage to transport the goods out? It couldn’t have all been sneaked out over the wall.

Moreover, while investigating this matter, Huo Jingrui found that other factories were facing similar issues.

The police had already intervened in secret, and those involved were destined for serious consequences. This wasn’t a minor issue, especially since it involved several factories.

Huo Jingrui hadn’t been able to return to his small courtyard for days due to this investigation.

When Yunyi saw him again, it was a week later: "Are you done with it?"

Huo Jingrui’s eyes were full of exhaustion, he nodded slightly at Yunyi. They had caught the people, but no news had leaked out yet.

So the matter hadn’t spread through the factory.

Yunyi felt a twinge of pity: "Go grab some clothes and take a bath. There’s still some mutton sauce from Grandma Su’s midday cooking. I’ll make you a bowl of noodles."

Huo Jingrui was indeed too tired. He hadn’t slept much these past few days.

Grandma Su heard the commotion and came over, saw Huo Jingrui: "How busy have you been? Why don’t you take care of yourself."
