Sunset red

Gong looked back and found out the source of the rumors in the company.

Some time ago, an employee with a good deed came across a photo of Shou while flipping through gossip posts, and felt that the person in the picture was somewhat similar to the new assistant next to the president, so he even shared it in his office WeChat group.

Shou has changed a lot in these years, but if you check the five senses one by one, they all match up.The most important thing is that there is a mole on the face of the person in the picture, but there is a very small scar on the face of the recipient.

The speed with which gossip can spread is astounding.It was passed on among employees, and it became a hot topic within the company for a while.

Sudden promotion before Shou, and now he was suddenly transferred back to the original department. Although he was not fired, it seemed to explain a lot of problems.

Therefore, after he returned to his original station, the treatment he received was really not friendly.

Colleagues in the same office are still in the way of face, and the change in attitude is only reflected in trivial matters such as "don't call him for dinner" and "don't bring him for team building".

And once he walked outside the office, someone would always pay attention to him from a distance, accompanied by whispers from insiders, eager inquiries from those who didn't know, and several "impossible" voices that did not control the volume.

I just don't feel it.

The reaction of the parties was too negative, and there was no new development in the gossip, and the heat gradually passed.After all, most people don't believe it.

But there are always people who are not satisfied with watching from afar.

One day, an employee went directly to the gossip post and replied anonymously: "This guy in Tuli works as an accountant in our company! He hasn't been promoted in many years, and he hooked up with the boss some time ago for no reason, and suddenly he hangs out with the boss! But he He is already an uncle, so no one guesses that way, now it seems that his nature is hard to change..."

However, Shou is too unknown, and this reply only attracted a few people: "If you don't have a picture, what are you talking about?"

The employee was dissatisfied, and found a photo of Shou: "Look at the nose, the eyes, and the scar on the side of the face."

This time attracted a few more people: "Look carefully, it looks a bit like..." "Are you joking about the resemblance? Isn't this face too obvious?"

The employee was even more dissatisfied: "Is it necessary for me to lie? I'll go straight to shoot the video!"

Having said that, he didn't dare to chase people directly in the company.

But Shou always has to get off work.

Most of the company's old employees lived in nearby residential areas. This person knew that Shou was going the same way as him, so he followed Shou for a while after get off work, holding up his mobile phone while walking, but he could only take pictures of his back.

At this time, Shou turned into the supermarket to buy vegetables.

The employee followed immediately, and while he was paying at the counter, he stood not far away and started filming.

After all, Shou has been an actor for so long, so he is very sensitive to the camera.When I looked up by chance, I immediately spotted this person.

Fired by the almost conditional situation, he turned around and fled, rushed out of the supermarket gate, and when he ran down the steps, he was tripped by a pedestrian and fell heavily.

The person who took the photo originally thought that the subject would come forward to argue, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so guilty, and couldn't help being amused.

Shou limped back home, and when he entered the door, he found that his adopted son was already at home.

He glanced at his adopted son, said nothing, and walked to the kitchen in a daze.

It is rare for the adopted son to get off work on time today, but seeing Shou's appearance, he was surprised: "What's wrong with you?"

I can't bear to answer.

The adopted son was angry: "Who did it?"

Shou was silent for a moment, as if he had just heard his question: "I fell it myself."

The adopted son was also silent.

He is too familiar with this state of suffering—this is his childhood nightmare: a dead house, a trance-like adoptive father, and the occasional scars on his adoptive father or himself.

The adopted son didn't say anything, turned around and entered his room, took out his mobile phone, and typed Shou's former name in the search box with shaking hands, like knocking open a thick scab.

He saw the gossip post at a glance, so he clicked in and found the supermarket video that had just been posted in the reply.

The adopted son had been brooding over dinner.

After the meal, he returned to his room and sent a private message to the anonymous account: "Hello, I am a reporter from the entertainment section of XX News, could you please send the high-definition version of the video just now to my email? I am willing to pay for it." .”

He quoted a price.

Sure enough, the other party sent an email soon.

The adopted son looked at the prefix of the other party's email account, it was a nickname.

Although the adopted son is no longer in the company he is attacking, he has always forgotten to quit the company's WeChat group.At this moment, he opened the list of group members and searched for the nickname.

At noon the next day, on the way back to the office from the cafeteria after eating, I suddenly heard a noise from the end of the corridor outside, mixed with roars and cries of pain.

There were already many onlookers standing in the corridor, and a man dressed as a hooligan was beating up an employee, punching him in the stomach.

Shou recognized that the employee was the one who secretly took pictures of himself yesterday, and was momentarily stunned.

The ruffian got in somehow, and his combat power was amazing, and he finally pulled him aside after five or six men.The ruffian was restrained, without any fear, he yelled: "This man owes his gambling debt and won't pay it back! I want his blood to pay!"

Someone called the police, and the police came.

Police: "Why beat someone?"

Hooligan: "He owes money and won't pay it back."

Employee: "I'm not! I don't!"

Police: "Where's the evidence?"

Hooligan: "He stole the IOU and burned it."

Policeman: "You beat someone, you will be detained." The hooligan said indifferently: "Let's go."

There was a lot of discussion, and the eyes of the employees were tearing apart.

The employee suddenly saw Shou in the crowd, and pointed with red eyes: "It's him! He must have paid someone to beat me!"

Police: "Why did he beat you?"

The employee broke his heart: "Because I exposed his scandal!"

The onlookers were as excited as if they had won the lottery.

The policeman walked up to Shou: "Is there such a thing?"

Shou looked dazed, his thoughts racing.

Shou had guessed that the only person who could do this was the adopted son.

Feeling warm in his heart, he immediately fell into fear.Although the adopted son didn't do it himself, can you guarantee that he didn't leave any clues?Once the police go to investigate, will they detain him?His new job is just on the right track, what if he loses his job because of it?

……

Shou said slowly, "I did it."

When this farce reached Gong's ears, Gong was flipping through the gossip post.

After watching the supermarket video, he looked left and right, unable to vent his anger, picked up the phone and wanted to throw it on the ground, but held back at the last second—the phone was still useful.

Two phone calls were hacked, the first was to ask someone to delete the post, and the second was to ask someone to trace the anonymous user's IP address.

At this time, the female secretary came to report that there was a ruffian causing trouble. The employee who was beaten insisted that Shou was the mastermind behind the scenes, but Shou was also taken to the police station for investigation.

Gong: "...OK, I see."

So Gong made a third call.

Shou just entered the gate of the police station, and was escorted out again like a Buddha.

Standing by the door, Shou looked confused: "You can leave now? Don't you need to detain me? Are you still investigating others?"

The policeman who sent him: "Not sure, I just follow orders."

After thinking about it, he took out a cigarette and handed it over.

Police: "No, no, let's go."

Still confused, I heard someone behind me say, "It's all right, come out."

He turned around and saw Gong's car parked outside the door.

Gong rolled down the window: "Come up, I have something to ask you."
