The Passion of an Academic Rising Star

Han Shixiu continued to search on the Internet and found that the official homepage of the university's School of Computer Science listed the email addresses of all teachers as contact information.

Look at the photo - a woman, looks about 35 to 40 years old.

Han Shixiu immediately sent an email.

The letter said that I did not receive the money, and I don't know what kind of problem occurred.I just want to get back the one I won, can you tell me what went wrong.

Finally, Han Shixiu thought about it, and added another sentence: We are both in the academic circle, should we avoid conflicts as much as possible?

Han Shixiu took this sentence as a threat.He felt that the implication was that if the social circles overlapped, and he annoyed himself, he might balabala say it.

He thought the intimidation was very powerful, so he clicked "send" hopefully.

I don't know if this effort has played a role. Although Han Shixiu did not receive a reply, the agency left a message for Han Shixiu on the chat tool.

The intermediary said: "I didn't go online before, and I just saw the information. It's like this: the client is looking for various reasons, wants to pay less, and says that the translation quality is average. I am still asking him. Don't worry, I will I will definitely keep my promise and remit the money to you. Please wait patiently. If the customer does not pay the bill by the end of the year, I will pay for it myself. Even if you lose to me, you will not let your hard work be in vain."

"Oh..." Han Shixiu replied, "Okay. Got it. Sorry to trouble you. Thank you."

After closing the chat tool, Han Shixiu was a little confused.

He doesn't trust the agency much anymore, it's a bit like an instinctive feeling.Although there were no loopholes in what the other party said, Han Shixiu still felt that he could not be 100% sure that the agency was not lying.

Feeling that it is still necessary to let Zou Sijiu know the latest situation, Han Shixiu sent another email to Zou Sijiu, saying that the agent left me a message, saying that the client still has money and has not paid in full, and wants to pay less, and the two sides are still communicating, so please wait , If he doesn't come by the end of the year, he will post it to me himself.

Zou Sijiu replied very quickly, and there was only one sentence on it: no wait.I'll be back in two days.

"That..." Han Shixiu said, "Be careful."

This time there are only two words: "It's okay."

……

Then, only one day later, Han Shixiu received a message from the agency: "Are you there? Tell me your bank account again, and I will transfer the money to you directly. It's so convenient. Tell your brother not to come."

"Huh..." Han Shixiu said: Yes.I am here now. "

"Agreed 5000, paid 500, still short of 4500."

"right……"

"I'll give it to you. The client didn't say the translation was acceptable until yesterday, and he just paid the money. It hasn't been paid yet, and he still owes 2000 yuan. This client is not good and difficult to deal with. I said earlier that I I can’t lose you even if I post it myself. If I wanted to lie to you, I would have disappeared long ago. I am not that kind of person.”

"Oh……"

"You don't have to worry about cooperating with me."

"Oh……"

"There are a lot of translators in my company. If I don't give money, who will continue, haha."

"Oh……"

"Integrity is the basic bottom line of being a human being."

"..."

"That's the norm that has to be followed."

"..."

Han Shixiu looked and saw that Zou Sijiu was also online.

"That... have you found an intermediary?"

"Ah."

"How...how did you find it?"

"Let's not talk about that first." Zou Sijiu asked, "Why did you take this job?"

"I...I want to make some money..." Han Shixiu knew that he had done something stupid, and felt a little guilty: "I forgot to take the good dollar..."

"Didn't I tell you to come to me when something like this happened?"

"I remember." Han Shixiu repeated again: "I remember."

Although Han Shixiu knew that he would not go to Zou Sijiu easily, but after thinking about it, he didn't panic at all when he found that the underwear was still in the bedroom. Maybe it had something to do with Zou Sijiu's words.

——there is the last support there.

Never despair.

Even if other methods are blocked, there will be no way out.

Under such circumstances, the pressure is inexplicably much less.

"That, Zou Sijiu." Han Shixiu asked, "How did you find an intermediary?"

"I asked your client to ask for it."

"I emailed the customer, but the other party didn't reply..."

"I called her cell phone directly."

"Hmm...?" Han Shixiu asked, "Where did you know her cell phone number?"

"Isn't there a department name on the Internet?"

"Ah."

"First call the courtyard and ask for the number of the department. Then call the department and ask for the person's cell phone."

"Did the department... just tell you directly?"

"Oh. I said that I'm a relative of Mr. Liu who is out of town. I'm here on a business trip these two days, and I want to stop by to see her."

"..."

That's why the department gave me a mobile phone...

"You idiot."

"Huh?!" Master Han laughed happily, but he heard such a sentence suddenly.

"The person was surprised when he received the call, and asked me how I knew her number. I said I had no other intentions, I just wanted to win it from you. She said that the money had already been given to the agency, [-]."

"Twenty thousand..."

The intermediary gave me five thousand...

"It's quite a skill for you to find such a dark one."

"..."

"She said at the time that if the quality was particularly good, a 2000 reward would be added. Later, she felt that she could not meet such a standard, so she didn't give it, but the agency kept chasing it."

"So, the intermediary is still cheating..."

"The man was a little anxious when he heard about it. He told me that the agent had a mobile phone number and an office, and he couldn't run away. He immediately called the agent. When the agent saw the situation, he asked me to contact him. We made an appointment to meet tomorrow to get the money. .”

"Oh……"

After thinking for a while, Han Shixiu said again: "The agent came to me just now and asked me to give him the bank account number again... This way you don't need to go there."

Zou Sijiu seemed to be silent for a while, but quickly returned: "I'll go."

"……Hey?"

"It's better not to leave your information as much as possible."

"...?"

"It's not a good thing to be a shooter for others. Don't let people know your real name."

"..."

"Don't you still want to be a professor? You may become a target in the future, so it's always right to be cautious."

"Zou Sijiu..."

"That's it. You write back to the agent, saying that it is still in accordance with the original agreement, and I will go there at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

"thanks……"

"This kind of proxy, the worst is to get 50.00%."

"..."

Han Shixiu knew that he was stupid, but fortunately, Zou Sijiu didn't say anything more.

……

——After 8 o'clock the next day, Han Shixiu saw the message from the agency on the chat tool: "Your brother is already here. Can you give me a call? Make sure it is indeed your brother. Be careful. wrong."

The intermediary... probably wanted to cover up the embarrassment in this way... Acting very serious and responsible, it's really a good face.

Han Shixiu called the phone number given by the other party.

The intermediary's voice was a little hoarse: "Ah! Ah! That's fine, listen, is this your brother!"

"Um……"

"Hey."

"Zou..." I haven't heard Zou Sijiu's voice for a long time, and Han Shixiu's ear, which was pressed against the phone, became very hot for some reason: "Zou...Zou Sijiu..."

"It's me." Zou Sijiu's voice was the same as before: "Manager Zhang just wants to be on the safe side. This time it will be all right. Manager Zhang wants to tell you a few more words."

Manager Zhang...

Han Shixiu originally thought that he would be angry if he talked to the agency, but he didn't.Same as Zou Sijiu, chatting in the same tone, hypocritical.

The three of them were well aware of what happened, but they were all pretending to be courteous.
