"It's bitter." In the afternoon, I was dealing with a contract dispute between artists and partners. The little guy knocked on the door and opened the office door. "Sister, the water has become bitter again."

How could water change its taste for no reason?

"I'll try it."

I stopped what I was doing, stood up and came to the little guy's side.

The little guy stood on tiptoes and raised the water glass in his hand.

I took it and tasted it carefully.

"Sister, does it taste a little bitter?"

"Ah."

The texture and taste of the water are not much different from usual. The bitterness is very light and cannot be detected without tasting it carefully.

"Is it because of the pure water factory?"

The little guy and I came to the tea room to find the reason.

The little guy shook his head hastily, "I just went downstairs to get a glass of water. The water downstairs tastes the same as what I drank in the morning."

The little guy took the paper cup placed on the cabinet and handed it to me, and I took a sip.

There is a difference in the taste of the water downstairs and the tea room. The water delivered to the company is the same pure water company.

When I was puzzled, the white crystals on the empty bucket when I changed the water in the morning came to mind.

I put the cup back on the cabinet, turned on the tea bar machine, and looked carefully at the edge of the bottled water spout.

Unlike the empty bucket that was replaced, there is no foreign matter on the edge of the water outlet this time.

Am I overthinking it?

I was about to get up when I saw tiny crystals at the water outlet from the corner of my eye.

I carefully took out the crystals with a paper towel.

"Sister, does water bitterness have anything to do with it?"

"I don't know either." I wrapped the crystal in a tissue, put it in my pocket, and took Nannan's special cup. "I will find someone to find out. From now on, Nannan will not use the tea machine in the tea room. . Lend me your cup.”

"Ok!"

"Besides me, who else did Nan Nan tell that water tastes bitter?"

"I only told my sister."

"This matter is a secret between us. We can't tell others for the time being."

The little guy gestured to his mouth with his hand.

"good."

After I told the little guy, I left the tea room and looked at the surveillance camera in the corridor.

The surveillance in the corridor is a 360-degree surveillance probe, which can just capture the picture of entering and exiting the tea room.

I had just joined the company not long ago, so I wasn’t familiar with the people in the company and didn’t trust them.

Just when I was thinking about whether to go to the monitoring room to adjust the monitoring, my phone rang.

It was a call from the company's security guard, telling me that the surveillance camera outside the tea room was broken and that I needed to arrange for someone to come and repair it.

What a coincidence that the surveillance system broke down at this time!

I thought of a possibility.

Before the speculation is confirmed, I cannot make any statement and I need to behave the same as before.

I'm not worried about the little guy staying alone in Mr. Lu's office.

I take his books and toys to my office, keeping an eye on him and not letting him out of my sight.

Before getting off work, I called Yang Su.

"You want me to help you identify the material composition of a crystal?"

"Yes."

"These days, brothers have to settle accounts. Tell me, how much reward can you give me?"

"You make a price."

"If you ask me to give you a price, I'll ask a lion to open his mouth."

"..." He didn't hide his "greed" at all?

"The research funding for the next quarter will be increased by ten percent."

"Dr. Yang, your research funding is provided by Mr. Wen. I am no longer his assistant. I can't get in the way of research funding."

"If you can't get a word in, others won't be able to do anything about it. Think about it carefully."

"Sorry to bother Dr. Yang. I'll contact other people."

"You can't contact other people!" Dr. Yang was about to hang up the phone. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Do you want me to die?"

"Where do you start talking about this?"

Wen Xuyan gives him very generous research funding every quarter. Even if I can't help him increase his research funding, it will not affect his research projects.

I don't know why.

"Send the things over."

Just now he looked like there was nothing to talk about, but in the blink of an eye, his attitude changed, and his expression changed faster than flipping through a book.

Yang Su asked me to deliver the things before six o'clock.

There would be traffic jams in the city after get off work. I was afraid of wasting time, so I asked about the hospital he was in, and immediately rushed there with the little guy.

……

More than ten minutes later, I arrived at Yang Su's office.

Yang Su glanced at the little guy, "He doesn't look like Mr. Wen to me. Do you need my help with a paternity test?"

"..." Yang Su's words were somewhat disrespectful.

If I hadn't asked for him, I would have taken Nannan and left immediately.

I opened my bag and took out the neatly folded tissues, "Here are the things to test."

Yang Su had a stinky face, as if I owed him 800 coins, and took the tissue impatiently.

When he opened the tissue and saw the crystal, his expression immediately turned serious, "Where did you find it?"

"It was found on the outlet of the company's bottled water." Judging from Yang Su's reaction, he had recognized the crystal, "Is there something wrong with it?"

"Did you drink bottled water?"

"Nannan and I both drank." The situation was more serious than I thought.

"I'll give you a check list, and you follow the nurse for the check-up."

Yang Su sat down at the desk, opened a checklist, and contacted the nurse.

Soon, a nurse knocked on the door and entered the office.

Yang Su: "Take them for examination."

"Okay, Dr. Yang."

Before leaving with the nurse, I wanted to ask Yang Su what crystals were.

Yang Su took the phone and said, "Let's go check it out first. We'll talk about other things after the test results come out."

The nurse whispered, "Follow me."

I nodded and led the little guy to follow the nurse.

Before leaving the office, I worried about going back and said, "Don't tell Wen Xuyan about me."

Wen Xuyan is busy with work, and I don't want him to worry about my affairs.

"It's too late. I've already sent him a message." Before Yang Su finished speaking, his cell phone rang, "Mr. Wen's call."

"Doctor Yang..."

"I still have so many meaningful projects to do that will benefit the masses of the people. I need to cherish my life." Yang Su slid down to answer.

"Ruan Zhen is in the hospital?"

"On the surface, her condition is normal. I have issued a check list and asked the nurse to take her for a detailed examination. I will report her condition to Mr. Wen at any time." After Yang Su finished speaking, he pressed the speakerphone and opened the Send Wen Xuyan your location on WeChat.

Seeing that I couldn't stop Yang Su, I put the little one's special water cup on Yang Su's desk before following the nurse for the examination. "The water in the cup is from the tea bar machine."

The examination was carried out in an orderly manner and I did not feel any discomfort in my body.

The little guy is young and his body organs are not yet mature. I hope the crystals will not harm his health.

While waiting for the test results, Wen Xuyan rushed to the hospital.

The little guy was so happy to see him that he came up to him and said, "Uncle, I did a great job just now. I didn't cry when I took blood!"
