266 Paper Bag (1/2)
The paper bag in question was the kind that was could be found anywhere with two holes for his eyes. Ol' K had the bag over his head. Not only was Qin Chu confused, even when Ye Shuang saw that, she was quite speechless. ”…Ol' K, wouldn't it be better for you to just invest in a mask?”
Ol' K was a technical worker, and it was understandable that he did not want to show his true face before many people. However, there were many ways to do that. Why would he pick a method that was so crazy?
Ye Shuang suddenly felt like he had greatly lowered the standard of her team. With a teammate like that, would Qin Chu place his trust in her, and would he be interested in what she wanted to say?
Thankfully, later Ol' K used his own ability to pull up his impression.
”I'm not going to talk about the details on Xia Cheng's resume. Instead, I'll let Mr. Qin see something else.” Ol' K's vibrant laugh filtered through the paper bag. He lowered his head to type on the keyboard, and the screen dwindled and fixed itself at the center. Then, eight different screens with data popped up around it.
”Take a look at this first.” As Ol' K spoke, the top left screen expanded. Qin Chu subconsciously looked around him. He thought that they were there to discuss something, so he chose a semi-open seat that was rather secluded. No one was paying them any attention.
”Here, use this.” Ye Shuang dropped a set of ear-buds with three outputs on the table. Then she put one on and gave Su Zheng another. Qin Chu heard that and grabbed the last one. As Ye Shuang pressed the button on screen, the sound went from the speaker to the ear-buds. The familiar character on screen also attracted Qin Chu's attention. Xia Cheng, in different outfit, at different office and unit, was quite a surprise.
”Xia Cheng used many different identities to infiltrate many different companies. All these identities could be traced, and they have complete files and history, similar to the one use by 'Xia Cheng'.” Ol' K clicked on these different screens, and the resumes and histories of these characters appeared on screen. Other than that, there was an introduction that stated that these companies were bigger than they were.
”We don't know why Xia Cheng picked these companies to work at, but we can confirm a few things. One, no matter how Xia Cheng first entered the company, in the end, he rose to one of the core characters of the companies with incredible speed. Two, after Xia Cheng joined these companies, their scale would expand to a certain degree after a fixed amount of time. Thus far, the company that benefited the most had expanded three times its original size.”
Qin Chu asked Ye Shuang for permission to control the computer and looked through Xia Cheng's employment records had at those companies. Based on those documents and evidence, the real 'resume' of this Xia Cheng was indeed scary.
The pictures not only had the working photos and files of Xia Cheng working at these companies, they also had photocopies of the identity cards and various certificates that Xia Cheng had used when he applied to those companies.
Whether it was Zhang San, the scientist, or Lee Si, the manager for an import company, the many certificates and identity cards did belong to the current Xia Cheng. The only difference was the graduation picture from the primary school and secondary school… Comparing the two, other than the gender, there were few similarities to these pictures. Most likely, these were the real owners of these identities. Disappeared people, those who had died without anyone completing a death certificate, cooperation with an orphanage, problems with the national registry department. As long as there was money, to find or cultivate a legal 'identity' was not that difficult.
Even Qin Chu knew how to do that. After all, there were quite a number of stowaways that arrived at Xiang Jiang, and some of them were valuable talents.
”Mr. Qin should notice that Xia Cheng is actually quite a capable person.” Since their ear buds were connected, it was easy to communicate. After waiting for Qin Chu to digest the information, Ye Shuang pointed on the files on screen and smiled. ”His purpose and whether those companies were cooperating with him aside, we only focus on the result… Whenever Xia Cheng joins the company, the company will grow to become the leader of the industry within the area. Does Mr. Qin admit that fact or not?”
Qin Chu looked at the examples and data and also used his phone to search the internet. He was quiet for a while before nodding. ”If all this is true, then your conclusion is correct.”
”Xia Cheng never once announced to an outsider the scope of his job, and he rarely shows himself. He only shows up when there is a cooperation, so there are not many industry rumors about him.” Ye Shuang continued slowly. ”However, since we already know the companies that he has worked for earlier, if you want to, Mr. Qin, you can just take Xia Cheng's picture to ask the old workers at these companies. You should be able to get the answer easily.
”So, we can assume that Mr. Qin has already verified that and agreed with our investigation result.”
Ye Shuang nodded, giving no chance to the other person to steal the speaking right away from her. ”With that conclusion, Xia Cheng now poses a big threat to you. After all… he is currently working for your competition.”
