Chapter 1243 - 1243: No Way Out

After saying this.

Not only did Lin Feng believe so, but even his close friend and buddy Li Tian nodded in agreement with his point of view.

"I think there seems to be some truth to it. After all, if your employee didn't hide himself, then he was definitely hidden by someone else."

"Since you said he's not hiding himself, then there's only one reason—he's been kidnapped or threatened by someone."

"But that doesn't make sense, you say now he's an employee of your company, what benefit would it bring someone to help him? He's not such an important person."

After Lin Feng heard this, he also fell into a deep contemplation.

Because he felt the same way, if it was indeed a kidnapping, then wouldn't it be better to kidnap himself?

Even though the opponent couldn't handle him personally, Xiao Chen is just a very ordinary research staff member in the institute.

The stuff he mastered isn't much; all the truly crucial documents are in Old Doctor's hands, unless he has the qualification to find the materials in Old Doctor's possession.

Otherwise, it's impossible to get hold of the important materials.

There's only one reason for that, he really entered Old Doctor's office, or there's another reason.

However, Lin Feng couldn't directly ask Old Doctor, but planned to investigate further, find the person first before saying more, because he thought those materials were entrusted to different people incrementally.

Even if Xiao Chen really got the materials, who would he give them to?

Could it be to his own competitors?

If there is such a reason, then it becomes clearer where to find him.

Once it's confirmed.

He gave a call to Li Tian, saying, "Listen, there's a competitor of mine who has always wanted to rival my company. I think this matter might be related to him as well."

It was the first time Lin Feng considered his competitors, so when he said this, Li Tian on the other end of the call also reacted with realization.

He nodded and said very seriously, "Right, how could I forget you have a competitor, the domestic competitors alone could line up a long queue."

"Plus those foreign spies, it's very likely they've already infiltrated our research lab. Maybe this time Xiao Chen's incident is also because of their people."

"I'll go and investigate your competitor right now."

Lin Feng nodded; he really couldn't find any other direction now, he could only go with his intuition.

As long as he can sense who Xiao Chen might be connected to, then he can only follow that direction.

Although this seems a bit random, it's still better than finding nothing at all.

Lin Feng said to Li Tian, "We have less than six days left, so you need to hurry and make use of the remaining time to investigate Zhang Kaitian's company."

"If we don't investigate, then I don't know if he'll really conceal our employees."

He didn't have to say much, since in this project, Li Tian's level of attention and concern is even higher than Lin Feng's.

Without saying another word, he hurriedly instructed his people to handle it, plus he basically has his people among the thugs in Jiangcheng, so once action is set into motion.

These people seemed to find direction, each one exhilarated to no end.

"Guys, this time the boss said we need to focus on investigating a company, that company might be hiding the person he wants to find."

When the thugs heard this, they said incredulously, "What? We're supposed to investigate that company? Isn't that the company we previously collaborated with?"

After all, Zhang Kaitian's company had many thugs who had contact with him, so everyone felt a bit puzzled.

But this time, they couldn't help but investigate Zhang Kaitian's company well, not for anything else but because it's an order from the higher up, Li Tian.

If they don't handle it, the consequences could easily be imagined as very severe.

These thugs hoped to continue mingling in Jiangcheng.

Although some of these thugs had worked for Zhang Kaitian for a period, doing things and receiving money from him.

In Jiangcheng, of course, his fools were more loyal to him, providing them with a place to stay, so apart from some unwilling individuals,

The other thugs started to follow their leader to investigate Zhang Kaitian's company.

It was nighttime.

Zhang Kaitian made another call to the hospital, "How is it? Is Xiao Chen's injury getting any better now?"

Several thugs were fighting over Xiao Chen's food, and upon receiving the call, they straightened up a bit, then tossed the food to Xiao Chen's lap, taking the call.

"Don't worry, boss, trust us with your business, this guy is well fed in the hospital, I reckon he'll be good as new in another half month."

Though what he said was slightly exaggerated, it did indeed make Zhang Kaitian feel somewhat reassured.

He nodded and said to his man again, "Be sure to keep a close eye on him."

"If he tries to run once he recovers, break one of his legs, got it?"

After saying this, the thug hastily nodded and bowed as if Zhang Kaitian was right before him, "Boss, rest assured, that kid won't dare to escape."

"If he dares escape, I'll do as you said and break his leg. Anyway, this guy doesn't have the qualification to work for the boss."

Xiao Chen, who was eating, heard the thug talking on the phone and was filled with rage, he didn't expect Zhang Kaitian to treat him so heartlessly.

After all, they had been through so much together, but the other side didn't want to give him a way out, so since that's the case, he had nothing to hold back from Wildfire.

This time upon leaving, he didn't care if he wouldn't be accepted by Lin Feng's company anymore, he was determined to tell Lin Feng the truth behind this matter, he couldn't wrong Lin Feng anymore.

At this moment his conscience finally awoke, and the pressure he would face in the future, he silently noted in his heart. After the call, the thug kicked Xiao Chen's bed.

Then said to him, "The boss told us during this time not to let you roam around, your sister will come to see you tomorrow, then she'll be confined next door, got it."
