Chapter 309 Mutation
Duanmu replied after a long while: "She is dead."

Cui Jian: "Sorry, when did it happen?"

Duanmu replied: "Junior year."

Cui Jian: “Why?”

Duanmu glanced at Cui Jian and said, "It's none of your business."

Cui Jian: "I'm sorry." Cui Jian wanted to ask this question a long time ago. He and Duanmu met because of Duanmu's sister, but in more than a year of contact, Duanmu never mentioned his sister. I think it's because they have the same father but different mothers. This time when Zheng Yu came to Korea, he talked a lot about family matters with Duanmu, and Cui Jian, who was listening, didn't hear any information about Duanmu's sister.

When Cui Jian was in a daze with no topic to talk about, he thought of this and asked if he didn't understand. Duanmu's attitude suddenly became very cold, and he seemed to be very reluctant to talk about this topic. They were all adults, so Cui Jian naturally wouldn't ask any more questions, let alone inquire.

The rare atmosphere was somewhat awkward. After getting the report and submitting it to the detective in charge, the two drove back to the company in Hancheng. They didn't talk much along the way. Duanmu lazily sat in the passenger seat, his head pressed against the car window, staring at the sky in the distance. No one knew what he was thinking.

It was already noon when they returned to the company. They collected their guns and bullets again and were taken to the restaurant by Li Ran to eat. Li Ran carelessly slapped Cui Jianliang's blind Samsung work badge on the dining table, attracting the attention and discussion of people around him. Cui Jian was speechless about Li Ran's behavior. Can't you give it to me in the office?

After chatting, teasing and joking, Li Ran said: "Many people have died in this project. Can't we persuade Zheng Yu to give up?"

Duanmu replied: "He leaves on Monday afternoon. My captain has already made arrangements."

Li Ran nodded: "After this project is over, you can take a vacation. Late summer and early autumn are good seasons for traveling."

The two of them agreed together.

Xiao Liu, the head of the logistics department, greeted him and sat down. Li Ran asked casually, "Xiao Liu, why are you eating so late today?"

Xiao Liu asked, "Didn't you just send Zhao Ai home from the police station?"

Duanmu and Cui Jian looked at Xiao Liu together. Li Ran asked, "Zhao Ai? Why did the people from the administrative department go to the police station?"

Xiao Liu thought this was the employee's privacy, but Li Ran was a big boss after all, so he had to answer questions. After all, Zhao Ai came from the bodyguard department, so Xiao Liu took the meal tray and sat over: "This morning, Zhao Ai beat someone up in a bar."

Beat someone? Cui Jian was a little confused. He suspected that Zhao Ai was the first successful humanoid dog X of Xingfu Company. Assuming that his suspicion was correct, Zhao Ai was unlikely to take the initiative to beat someone unless Li Jie instructed or in self-defense. However, Zhao Ai left the police station at noon, which meant that Zhao Ai was the party at fault.

Xiao Liu described the situation. At about 1 a.m., the police received a call from the bar about a woman entering the bar and beating up customers. In the transcript, many people testified that the woman, Zhao Ai, slapped a female customer twice, grabbed her head and slammed it against the bar. The female customer was also very fierce and fought with Zhao Ai.

Li Jieren was not in Hancheng, so he contacted a lawyer to mediate the matter. The customer agreed to forgive him and then left the police station. Because some procedures were difficult to handle in the early morning, the bar issued a loss list this morning. After paying the price, Zhao Ai apologized to the bar owner, and Xiao Liu took Zhao Ai away.

Cui Jian asked: "Li Jie is not in Hancheng, why did Zhao Ai suddenly go to the bar and beat up a woman?"

"Correct."

"Who did you hit?"

"I don't know about that." Seeing Duanmu and Cui Jian's expressions, Xiao Liu asked, "Should I ask a lawyer?"

Duanmu immediately said: "No, thank you for your help."

This was a way of getting rid of him, so Xiao Liu had to take the plate and leave. Li Ran ate the food slowly with chopsticks. He could see that Duanmu and Cui Jian had something on their minds, and it was related to Zhao Ai. This puzzled him a little. Zhao Ai had been working in the company's administrative department, and he had never seen the two of them pay much attention to it before.

Li Ran didn't know that the two were suspicious that Zhao Ai would do something that was not good for Li Jie. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Li Jie asked Zhao Ai to beat up the woman. Both of them were very interested in this matter, but the difference was that Cui Jian was curious and wanted to know. Duanmu really wanted to know. Otherwise, he couldn't have spent 200 million US dollars in the Xingfu Company auction.

Li Ran asked: "Is VIP still safe?"

Duanmu reported: "We have found a new place to live." After the gunfight, many people died, and the villa would not be unsealed in the short term. Duanmu did not ask Diudiu and Guiyi where Zheng Yu was transferred, because knowing it would not help, but might even make things worse.

Li Ran asked: "Will you go back in the afternoon?"

Duanmu nodded: "Yeah."

Li Ran gave a few more instructions on work matters.

After lunch, Duanmu contacted Ye Lan's assistant. Since Duanmu never met with her alone and had a very cold relationship with her, Ye Lan ended her working lunch early and returned to the company. When she saw Cui Jian sitting on a rattan chair on the first floor, Ye Lan deliberately stepped on Cui Jian's shoes and returned to her office with a smile.

After hearing Duanmu's request, Ye Lan was a little embarrassed and said, "Li Jie and I are not familiar with each other, and we don't have any business dealings yet. We originally planned to set up a North American joint company, but for some reasons, I did not participate in it." Originally, Lin Hai, the head of the Lin family, Li Jie of the Li family and Ye Lan were planning to set up a North American joint company.

Cui Jian thought that Ye Lan's workload was too heavy, and Ye Lan would now spend some time on fitness. Due to some objective reasons, Ye Lan, who was not interested in the joint company, finally gave up the opportunity to invest. Yun Xueshan replaced Ye Lan and became a shareholder of the North American Joint Company.

Ye Lan said: "Li Jie lives a very private life. I have hardly ever attended any party related to him. Are you familiar with Lin Hai or Yun Xueshan? They are currently partners. If there are some private parties of Lin Hai and Yun Xueshan, Li Jie will most likely attend."

Many big businessmen will bring their mistresses to social events, because a woman with a yellow face is not presentable. However, when people like Lin Hai attend important gatherings, they will definitely bring their woman with a yellow face, but not their mistresses. This shows that they have basic respect for their family and clan, which can improve their character and personal reputation in the circle.

Seeing Duanmu deep in thought, Ye Lan said, "The most suitable person is Yun Xueshan. She still has no boyfriend. You are quite qualified and can accompany her as a friend. However, private gatherings are more of a recognition of the other party and do not involve business content."

For example, Ye Lan is very casual about her birthday, and may even not celebrate it, but she can also invite a few partners to her birthday party. This means that Ye Lan values ​​the partners and is willing to have further cooperation. If there is no party to keep in touch, and only business exchanges are made on a daily basis, it is not a good thing for long-term cooperation. This kind of party is not difficult, does not take long, and everyone says some nice words, and the atmosphere is just right.

Although Ye Lan is not an insider, she knows a lot about the insider. Ye Wen, Mr. Ye and the elders of the Ye family are all people who have managed the insiders to do things. Therefore, Ye Lan knew that Duanmu was the captain of the Nemo Special Service Team. She was a little curious in her heart. With Duanmu's ability, why did he approach Zhao Ai through a party? But she is not Cui Jian. As long as it has nothing to do with her, she will not ask if she does not understand.

……

On the way back to Seoul, Duanmu's depression dissipated a lot, and he mentioned Zhao Ai's abnormality many times in casual chats.

Cui Jian proposed a hypothesis: "Humans grow up. According to biological principles, all the cells in a person's body are replaced every five years. Is it possible that although the humanoid dog is set to a pattern, it will gradually derive non-pattern things? For example, I liked sweets when I was a child, but I don't like sweets when I grow up. I fell in love with A at first sight today, and I fell in love with B when I saw B tomorrow."

Duanmu was very surprised: "How do you know that cells are replaced every five years?"

Cui Jian glared: "What do you mean?" How did he know? Of course, Xueying talked to him about it and proposed the law that people change but it is unchanging.

Duanmu smiled and said, "I think what you said is very likely. Zhao Ai has the highest love for Li Jie. She is willing to serve Li Jie's concubine for his happiness. But with the replacement of cells or the development of her mentality, as long as she has the ability to think, her thoughts will change more or less. Unless she is re-forged regularly, the humanoid dog is not a constant program."

Duanmu said: "If Zhao Ai is X, Xingfu Company has been observing her for several years and she has been very stable. Why did she make a mistake in the early morning? The problem is that Zhao Ai obeyed Li Jie's orders to kill people or joined a certain company, which did not conflict with her main will. But the women around Li Jie conflict with her main will."

Cui Jian did not comment. He was curious but not very interested. However, he did not quite agree with Duanmu's idea. The instructions Zhao Ai received should be to completely obey Li Jie, the master. Zhao Ai did not love Li Jie and would not be jealous because Li Jie had a woman around him. Cui Jian speculated that Li Jie's woman might have hindered Zhao Ai from obeying Li Jie. For example, Li Jie said he wanted to eat rice, but Li Jie's woman steamed buns, which prevented Zhao Ai from completing the work.

Duanmu answered the phone: "Of course, OK, thank you... Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Pi has arrived. Xingfu Company asked me if I was interested in knowing the details of the second auction. I said yes, and the other party will deliver the information to your door within two weeks. I remember that the second batch of humanoid dogs all have various skills."

Cui Jian nodded, lacking interest.

When they arrived at the outskirts of Seoul, Duanmu called Diudiu, who did not directly state the location but reported a place. After arriving, Cui Jian drove to follow Zhenzhen's car and finally arrived at a self-built house in the southeast of Seoul. At this time, Zheng Yu was receiving guests. According to Gui Yi, the two had been talking alone for more than an hour and a half.

Cui Jian and Duanmu got familiar with the surrounding environment and decided to change their residence again after discussion, because this location is easy to be surrounded. Since Zheng Yu has already received guests, it means that the self-built house is no longer private. Duanmu contacted the special service team to find a house and handed it over to Diudiu, who led the team to leave first.

At 5pm, after seeing off the visitors, we started moving. Now there was only one last trip left for Sunday.

After living in villas, hotels, and self-built houses, the last place to stay was a former textile factory warehouse in the suburbs. The abandoned warehouse was very simple, with 5 camp beds and a mobile toilet inside, and several carpets laid. The advantage was the excellent view. Duanmu handed over all the security outside the perimeter to the special forces.

Friday and Saturday mornings were spent in boredom. Zheng Yu had a box lunch for lunch, but he had no complaints. He also showed his care for Cui Jian and the others as if he was a senior. He seemed to regard Cui Jian and the other two as Duanmu's friends, not colleagues. During lunch, Hans, the assistant, called and said that Yun Xinyue, the former chairman of Yun Group, wanted to meet with Zheng Yu.

This meeting has nothing to do with politics, but is about a cooperation with Zheng Yu's business territory. North America has never lacked markets, but the competition is very strong. Yun Xueshan's strategy of surrounding cities from the countryside is very successful. It has laid a foundation in some backward countries in Southeast Asia, Asia, Africa and Latin America, focusing on social software and short videos to achieve the goal of monopoly. Now that the foundation has been laid, it is time to enter the high-end market. The business that Yun Xinyue wants to discuss belongs to the business of Zheng Yu's second son.

Zheng Yu's second son is a sinister person, but he is not very courageous. He is short-sighted and does not want to cooperate with the Yun family and let the Yun family get involved in his business. Yun Xinyue's purpose of this trip is not to cooperate with the second son, but to test Zheng Yu's attitude and whether he will hand over the management of Zheng's Technology Company to others. She also does not want to cooperate with Zheng Yu's second son, who has no business foresight.

Originally, this matter should have been handled by the chairman and executive president Yun Xueshan, but his seniority was too low. In view of the fact that Yun Xinyue and Zheng Yu had some friendship before, Yun Xinyue and Yun Xueshan went on this trip together.

Zheng Technology Company is a company that Zheng Yu has always been very optimistic about. He did not want to hand it over to his second son who lacked courage and innovation. However, the second son was rather insidious. When distributing the management of the industry among the three siblings, the second son took the management rights of the company from the third sister.

In recent years, the profits of technology companies have been getting worse and worse, and the proportion of R&D investment has been getting lower and lower. They are in urgent need of Yunjia's technology and financial transfusion.

Before deciding whether to meet Yun Xinyue, Zheng Yu asked Duanmu's opinion first. After all, this trip to Korea was too exciting.

Duanmu said it was no problem. Within 12 meters, there was an anti-UAV system disguised as a motorhome, and two groups of four sniper sentries. Within three kilometers, there was a special service team and 300 mercenaries under their command. This scale was enough to resist a platoon's assault. If million was divided into one platoon, each person would not get much money.

In preparation for the afternoon meeting, the special forces team specially delivered a sofa and a coffee table.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, three cars appeared in the field of vision five kilometers away. Yun Xinyue was accompanied by Yun Xueshan. It was her first time to meet Zheng Yu. Her purpose was to get to know the former Chinese business representatives and expand her network.

The accompanying bodyguards were politely refused entry to the factory. Gui Yi and Zhang Hao were assigned to guard the door, while Cui Jian wandered around everywhere.

Yun Xinyue was talking to Zheng Yu, and Duanmu was in contact with Yun Xueshan, which was unusual for Cui Jian. Cui Jian was very puzzled. Could it be that because he had clung to Ye Lan's thigh, Duanmu also wanted to cling to Yun Xueshan's thigh?
Cui Jian wanted to tell Duanmu that the reason he applied for the title of "thigh-breasted woman" was because her thighs were attractive, not because they were thick. He did not get any substantial benefits from the title of "thigh-breasted woman".

Yun Xueshan was surprised and asked, "Are you talking about the French Feike Technology Company?"

Duanmu replied: "Yes, I will sell you 12% of the shares at a % discount."

Yun Xueshan asked: "What do you want?"

Duanmu looked around and said, "I want to be your virtual boyfriend."

Duanmu got straight to the point and said, "I know you have some private gatherings occasionally, but I will attend any gathering related to Li Jie."

Yun Xueshan asked again: "What do you want to do?"

Duanmu replied: "This has nothing to do with you. If you get 12% of the shares, you can join the board of directors of Feike, which will be a win-win for you."
