The noise in the conference room gradually subsided, leaving only a few occasional whispers.
Dai Shiya's husband took the phone and quickly browsed the text message. A hint of coldness flashed in his deep eyes.
He put the phone away calmly, as if he had just seen an ordinary daily text message.
Dai Shiya's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and the suffocation almost made her breathless.
She tried to maintain the surface calmness, but her eyes were as sharp as a hawk, scanning every face present.
Everyone lowered their eyebrows and looked obedient, as if the dispute just now had never happened, but Dai Shiya knew that under the calm, undercurrents were surging.
"Let's stop here for today's meeting." Dai Shiya spoke slowly, her voice calm but with a hint of imperceptible majesty, "Everyone go back and have a good rest, I will take care of the family affairs."
Everyone stood up and said goodbye. Dai Shiya's second uncle walked at the end. He looked back at Dai Shiya with a complicated look in his eyes.
Dai Shiya's heart trembled, but she still maintained a decent smile on the surface.
After everyone left the meeting room, Dai Shiya completely removed her disguise and leaned back in her chair tiredly.
She rubbed her eyebrows and felt an unprecedented pressure.
"Did you find anything?" Wei Qing's voice sounded in her ears. She had come to Dai Shiya without knowing when, with worry in her eyes.
Dai Shiya shook her head and handed the phone to Wei Qing: "Someone is watching us secretly, and they are going to do it."
Wei Qing took the phone, quickly browsed the text message, and her face became solemn.
"It seems that they have noticed your plan."
Dai Shiya took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
"The most important thing now is to find out who is behind it."
In the next few days, Dai Shiya still handled the daily affairs of the family on the surface, but secretly began a secret investigation.
She collected information from various channels to find the enemy hiding in the dark.
However, to her disappointment, all the clues pointed in the same direction-fracture.
It seemed that someone had destroyed all the evidence in advance, making her investigation difficult.
This feeling of powerlessness was like an airtight net, tightly binding Dai Shiya.
She felt anxious, but helpless.
Her room became a secret place for her to think and make decisions. On weekdays, only her husband and Wei Qing could enter and leave freely.
During the day, she had to stay calm and deal with various forces; at night, she had difficulty falling asleep, and various possibilities kept replaying in her mind.
She felt more and more that under the surface of the calm family, there was a huge conspiracy, and she was like a prey trapped in a net, and could be swallowed at any time.
That night, Dai Shiya was looking at the family's financial statements in the study.
She suddenly noticed that in recent months, a large amount of money had flowed to an unknown account.
She was about to investigate further when someone knocked on the door gently.
Dai Shiya looked up and saw her husband pushing the door in. He was holding a cup of warm milk in his hand and his eyes were gentle.
"Don't be too tired." He walked to Dai Shiya, put the milk on the table, and said in a low and magnetic voice, "Rest early."
Dai Shiya raised her head and looked at her husband's gentle eyes, but an inexplicable uneasiness rose in her heart.
Dai Shiya took a sip of milk, and the warm liquid slid down her throat into her stomach, but it did not relieve her inner anxiety at all.
Her husband's thoughtfulness made her feel a little warm
. "I'm fine." Dai Shiya forced a smile, "There are still some things to deal with."
Her husband didn't say anything else, just stood quietly beside her, accompanying her.
Dai Shiya's eyes returned to the financial statements. The unknown amount was like a thorn, piercing her heart.
She took a deep breath and decided to start from another direction.
If directly investigating the financial statements is easy to alert the enemy, then start from a more inconspicuous place.
A thought suddenly flashed through Dai Shiya's mind: office supplies.
The daily operation of a large family is inseparable from a large amount of office supplies. If someone is secretly playing tricks, then there will inevitably be some abnormalities in the consumption of office supplies.
Thinking of this, Dai Shiya's eyes lit up, and a glimmer of hope seemed to appear in the dull atmosphere.
Early the next morning, Dai Shiya began to investigate the consumption of office supplies in various departments of the family.
She carefully flipped through every record, not missing any subtle differences.
However, the process was not smooth.
Some departments expressed dissatisfaction with Dai Shiya's investigation, claiming that there are normal fluctuations in the consumption of office supplies, and that Dai Shiya's actions were unreasonable.
"Boss Dai, our department has always had a heavy workload, so it is normal for office supplies to be consumed more," a department manager said in a bad tone, "Your constant investigation will affect our normal work."
Dai Shiya was not intimidated by these obstructions. She argued with reason and pointed out some obvious abnormal data.
The office area was filled with arguments, and conflicts were about to break out.
"These data clearly show that there is a problem." Dai Shiya's voice was calm and firm. "I hope you will cooperate with my investigation and not try to cover up any problems."
"Boss Dai, what do you mean by that?" Another department manager stood up with a hint of threat in his tone. "Are you doubting us?"
Dai Shiya's eyes swept over the crowd, her eyes as sharp as a knife: "I don't doubt anyone, I just want to find out the truth." She paused and said more forcefully, "If you are unwilling to cooperate, then I can only take other measures."
"You..."
"Bring me all the office supplies purchase and requisition records of all departments in the past three months." Dai Shiya interrupted the other party, her tone unquestionable, "Go now!" Faced with Dai Shiya's tough attitude, although the managers of various departments were dissatisfied, they did not dare to openly obstruct her.
They reluctantly submitted the office supplies purchase and requisition records of nearly three months.
Dai Shiya took a thick stack of documents back to her office and began to read them carefully.
Wei Qing also came to help. The two divided the work and cooperated, one was responsible for checking the purchase records, and the other was responsible for checking the requisition records.
The room was very quiet, with only the rustling of papers and occasional whispers.
Dai Shiya's fingertips slid across rows of data, her eyes focused and sharp.
Wei Qing was taking notes quickly, marking some suspicious data.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the air in the room became more and more solemn.
Finally, among the piles of records, Dai Shiya found some anomalies.
The purchase volume of some departments obviously exceeded the normal demand, but the records of these departments did not match it.
More importantly, the heads of these departments all had close ties with some suspicious people in the family.
Dai Shiya took a deep breath, her heart pounding.
She felt that she was getting closer and closer to the truth.
She clenched her fists, and excitement surged in her heart.
"Shiya, look at this." Wei Qing pointed to a chart on the computer screen, "There seems to be some connection between these suspicious people."
Dai Shiya leaned over to take a look, and the chart clearly showed the network of relationships between these suspicious people.
They have intricate connections with each other, forming a close interest group.
"There must be something wrong with this." Dai Shiya said affirmatively.
At this moment, Dai Shiya's husband pushed the door open.
He held a document in his hand and walked straight to Dai Shiya.
"I found some background information about these suspicious people," he handed the document to Dai Shiya, "maybe it will help your investigation."
Dai Shiya took the document and quickly browsed it.
The document detailed the past experiences, interpersonal relationships and some unknown secrets of these suspicious people.
This information undoubtedly provided important clues for Dai Shiya's investigation.
"Thank you." Dai Shiya looked at her husband gratefully.
"We are a family, so why say thank you." Her husband smiled gently, "If you need any help, just ask."
Dai Shiya nodded, and a warm current surged in her heart.
In this family full of intrigues, the support of her husband and Wei Qing is her greatest reliance.
The three continued to immerse themselves in the investigation.
Although the atmosphere in the room was tense, it was full of warmth.
Dai Shiya sometimes frowned in thought, and sometimes discussed in a low voice with her husband and Wei Qing.
They worked together to fight against the enemies hidden in the dark.
It was late at night, and there was silence outside the window. Dai Shiya rubbed her sore eyes and stretched.
"Let's stop here today," she said, "We all need a rest."
"Okay." Her husband and Wei Qing also stood up.
At this moment, Dai Shiya's phone suddenly vibrated.
She picked up the phone and saw an anonymous text message:
"Be careful of the person next to you."
Dai Shiya's face turned pale in an instant.
She raised her head suddenly and looked at her husband...
Dai Shiya's fingertips slid quickly on the tablet, and lines of code jumped in her eyes, like jumping notes, composing the upcoming victory movement.
She found that those suspicious people were not fighting alone. There was a secret communication network between them, and behind this network, it was her former mortal enemy-an old force hidden in the dark.
Those remnants of forces that had been defeated by her, like rats in the gutter, actually gathered secretly again, and colluded with the termites within the family, trying to stir up trouble again.
Dai Shiya's mouth curled up into a sneer. These guys are really thieves. Did
they think that she wouldn't recognize them after changing their skin?
How ridiculous!
She carefully analyzed the communication records and found that they used an extremely hidden encryption method to communicate, which ordinary people could not crack at all.
But Dai Shiya is not an ordinary person. She came from a book and has an extraordinary understanding of various black technologies.
She even found some small programs in her system that can simulate their communication frequency. This feeling is like holding a key to the heart of the enemy.
As the analysis deepened, a clear layout diagram gradually took shape in Dai Shiya's mind.
They wanted to take advantage of the contradictions within the family and create chaos to achieve their ulterior motives.
This plan is very thorough and interlocking. If she hadn't been more careful, they might have succeeded.
The sense of accomplishment surged into her heart like a tide, and Dai Shiya felt her blood boiling.
This feeling of being in control of everything was so wonderful. She liked the feeling of playing with the enemy in the palm of her hand, just like a skilled chess player, every step was precise and powerful.
Just as she was immersed in the joy of victory, Wei Qing suddenly exclaimed: "Shiya, look! Their communication frequency is changing!"
Dai Shiya quickly looked at the computer screen, and saw that the curves representing the communication frequency were fluctuating violently, like a group of frightened beasts, fleeing everywhere.
She immediately realized that they had noticed the investigation and were preparing to transfer the evidence.
"Damn it!" Dai Shiya cursed in a low voice, and a sense of crisis surged in her heart.
She had to speed up, and she must not let these guys succeed!
She quickly picked up her mobile phone and quickly dialed a number.
"Gather everyone immediately, target..." Her voice was low and powerful, with a hint of unquestionable majesty, and the corners of her mouth, which were just smiling, were now tightly pursed into a cold straight line.
