1378 The Culprit! 5 (1/2)

Nian Xiaomu intentionally spoke in a louder volume when she spotted the bodyguards who were slowly advancing toward Fu Jin from the corner of her eyes.

She shifted everyone's focus on herself.

”I would not do such things if Mr. Mo was still around…” Just as Fu Jin started to explain, he seemed to have detected something as he suddenly turned around and cast a glance behind.

His face changed instantly when he spotted the bodyguards who were silently approaching him.

”Nian Xiaomu, are you trying to buy time? I don't want to talk crap with you any longer, arrange a vehicle for me immediately and allow me to leave this place!”

As Fu Jin strangled Manager Hong with one hand, he brandished the swiss knife in his other hand and carefully looked around at his surroundings.

The bodyguards who were creeping up on him from the back door were discovered even before they could get near him.

The situation turned pressing in an instant.

Since the financial reports of the factory were all destroyed in the fire, Manager Hong's planner was the only tool they could use to verify the accounts.

Furthermore, if Fu Jin really managed to get away, it would be even harder for them to capture him since he has Mo Kun backing him up.

If Mo Kun knew that the plot was exposed and he decided to silence him…

Fu Jin could not leave this place just like that!

However, he was keeping Manager Hong hostage at the same time…

Nian Xiaomu could not think of a better solution at that moment. Just as she was about to agree to Fu Jin's request for the time being and think of better ideas while the vehicle was retrieved, she suddenly heard a loud shriek.

”Manager Hong!”

Nian Xiaomu was taken aback. When she lifted her head, she realized that Manager Hong, whom Fu Jin had been holding onto, was now grabbing onto the knife.

The sharp swiss knife had slashed his hands. Blood started to seep out from his fingers, dripping onto the ground.

However, not a single hint of fear could be seen on his gentle yet resolute face.

With a pause after every word, he said, ”Not only is the clothing factory the fruit of labor over the past few decades, it is also a home for the many workers here; it is a place which everyone would protect with their lives. I will not allow you to leave with the planner even if I were to die here today! Kill me if you can!”
