Chapter 515 Plan
Chapter 515 Plan
However, Gu Tingyan knew very well that the man in front of him had not yet revealed some key information. But he did not choose to force him to tell the whole truth immediately, because he knew that some things could not be rushed and had to wait until the time was right.
The room was horribly quiet for a moment, with only the man's suppressed sobs. After a long time, the man raised his head as if he had made a great decision, with a resolute look in his eyes.
"Boss Gu, I said, but you must protect my family. Actually... Actually, there is a bigger force behind our organization. They are very hidden. Even I don't know who they are. I only heard that every time an order is issued, it is through a special secret letter. There is a unique mark on the secret letter, like a black lotus. Moreover, there is a traitor in the organization who is specifically delivering information to that mysterious force."
Gu Tingyan frowned, this news was too shocking: "Do you know any clues about the identity of the traitor?" The man shook his head.
"I only know that it was done by someone in the upper echelons, and you are Mr. Gu's adopted son. Everyone can clearly see that Mr. Gu thinks highly of you and has always been committed to training you to be his successor. However, this behavior has caused dissatisfaction among some people in the upper echelons. Since they cannot attack you directly, they turn to attack the people close to you."
"After all, they know your character very well. Once you lose a crucial person, you will definitely not take over the organization's affairs. In this case, you will take the initiative to withdraw from the organization, which is exactly what those people want. This is the result they most hope to see. Now that Mr. Gu is old, many people are coveting his position." Guan
"There are some other things I have heard, but I am not completely sure yet."
"What is it? Tell me?"
"Some high-ranking officials within the organization, in alliance with people outside, want to remove Mr. Gu from his position."
At this moment, Gu Tingyan was thinking to himself: Why didn't my godfather tell me that the top brass in the organization were conspiring with outsiders to force him to abdicate?
Thinking of this, Gu Tingyan cast his gaze towards the man kneeling on the ground and slowly said, "In fact, you appeared outside the office door that day on purpose, right? You just wanted to be noticed by my people."
The man had never expected Gu Tingyan to be so smart. His expression changed slightly. After a moment of silence, he finally stopped hiding it and said bluntly, "Yes, I did it on purpose. Because I know very well that I am of no use to them. Now, only you can help me."
Hearing this, Gu Tingyan sneered and asked, "How dare you be so sure that I will help you?"
"Because the information I give you is more reliable than anyone else's."
"Your information is more reliable than anyone else's? Humph."
Gu Tingyan sneered: "However, your little information is indeed worth my protection of your family. But I have to say this in advance. If you tell me even a single lie, I will kill you and your family no matter where they hide."
"Everything I said is true. I wouldn't dare to lie to you in the slightest."
"During this time, I will transfer you to a safe place. My people will protect your safety, but you'd better understand your current situation."
Gu Tingyan looked at Awen and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. First, settle him down and strengthen the guard. Also, send someone to secretly protect his family."
"Boss, I understand."
After walking out of the interrogation room, Gu Tingyan wondered in his heart, who among the top executives was most likely to be the traitor? At this time, he thought of the second-in-command who always intentionally or unintentionally inquired about his adoptive father's whereabouts. Could it be him? Gu Tingyan decided to investigate secretly first.
Gu Tingyan asked Awen to closely monitor the second-in-command's every move, including the people he contacted and the letters he received. Afterwards, Gu Tingyan decided to visit his adoptive father to find out why he kept these things from him.
When Gu Tingyan arrived, a trace of relief and guilt flashed in Gu Lao's eyes. After Gu Tingyan told him everything, Gu Lao sighed and said that he didn't want him to get involved in this dangerous dispute too early, but he didn't expect the enemy to be so unscrupulous. After Gu Tingyan told Gu Lao his idea, the two discussed and decided to set a trap to lure out the traitor and the mysterious force behind it.
On the way back to the manor, Gu Tingyan thought of Lan Xi again, and his heart ached. Gu Tingyan secretly swore: "Lan Xi, no matter what, I will give you justice and let those who did evil receive the punishment they deserve." At this time, the wind whistled outside the car window, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.
