Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 310 Waiting for the rabbit
Zhang Yang glanced indifferently towards the front of the office, meeting two lewd gazes. Her feigned strength and indifference couldn't hide the fear in her heart.

Just then, the office door was suddenly flung open, and a drunken, bald man staggered in.

The men and women working below generally showed expressions of fear upon seeing this person.

This guy, nicknamed Brother B, was always drunk, seemingly doing nothing productive, yet he was still the boss's confidant. His main responsibilities were disciplining the troublesome newcomers and dealing with employees who couldn't produce results and whose hometowns couldn't afford to pay their ransom.

As for how it was handled, no one has seen it.

The person he took away never appeared again.

These people who are responsible for execution are the core members of the company organization. They are people who have truly seen blood and don't care about human lives.

"Brother B."

"Good morning, Brother B."

The two counselors bowed and scraped, their attitude extremely respectful.

Brother B walked to the front of the stage carrying a bottle of liquor, squinting as he surveyed the group of trembling yet trying-to-maintain composure employees below. When his gaze swept over Zhang Yang, it lingered on her for a long time; perhaps knowing she was handpicked by the boss, he let her pass.

He then set his sights on a young woman.

This woman has been here for over two months without making a single sale, and her family back home is completely unsupportive. Company management demands she close a deal within a month, or they'll force her to work as a male employee's prostitute—essentially, providing free sexual services to male employees.

Sleeping for a year can offset a series of expenses from the company, such as air wear and tear, keyboard wear and tear, dormitory fees, and food expenses, and then you can go back to China.

In fact, after a year, a person is basically ruined.

At this moment, the woman felt Brother B's gaze. She tried to remain calm and spoke into the microphone, attempting to create the impression that she was working hard and about to close a deal.

With a sinister laugh, Brother B placed the bottle on the table, swung his arms from side to side, walked to the woman's workstation, grabbed her from behind by the back of the neck, lifted her up, and slammed her onto the desk from behind.

……

Everyone shuddered, overwhelmed with sorrow. To live like neither human nor ghost in this hellish place was truly a sin committed in a past life.

The office phone kept ringing, but the voices seemed much softer.

Brother B fastened his belt, returned to the front desk, picked up the bottle, took a few gulps, slammed his fist on the table, and shouted:
"Get your act together and work hard! After get off work tonight, the boss is treating everyone to a trip to the city!"
After the Ponzi scheme ends, the boss will mercifully treat the company employees to a wild night in the city. Drinking, singing, and having sex with women and men.

"You need both carrots and sticks to get the best employees."

Looking at the suppressed, frenzied shouts of his employees below, Brother B stroked his bald head and thought to himself, "The boss truly lives up to his reputation."

Amidst the chaotic dance of demons, Zhang Yang was utterly dumbfounded.

One side is filled with fear, the other with brutality.

This is hell on earth.

The hotel, first floor!
"Good news!" Chen Shu jumped up, feeling as if his body had suddenly become much lighter.

Ashai stepped aside to let in a local boy, about eleven or twelve years old, who was following behind him.

In northern China, ordinary boys basically have three paths after they grow up: joining the army, working as waiters in casinos, or farming.

People like Ah Chai, who understand H language, can rise to management positions. However, there are very few people like him locally. Most clever boys prefer to find some unconventional ways to make a living.

Looking at the boy's eyes darting around, Chen Shu guessed that the child must be one of A Cai's helpers.

The first floor wasn't a good place to talk, so the four of them went to Chen Shu's room on the second floor. After closing the door, A-Chai spoke first.

Zhang Yang's good looks are both a bad thing and a good thing. The bad thing goes without saying, but the good thing is that it makes things easier for people like him who are aimless and searching around.

In the middle of the night, A-Chai took the photo and wandered around the nearby casinos, asking around among his acquaintances. Naturally, he found no trace of Zhang Yang. However, he also ruled out the possibility that Zhang Yang was trapped in the casino, so it was highly likely that she had fallen into the hands of a fraud ring.

In the area, large-scale fraud syndicates are mostly concentrated in the Northern Canada Industrial Park. However, the park is heavily guarded and essentially under closed management. Both the management and employees are Chinese, so it's impossible for a local like Asai to sneak in.

Besides, with so many companies, he couldn't possibly infiltrate them one by one.

However, there is an unwritten rule in the area: when a boss makes a lot of money, or when one of his employees closes a big deal, they will gather in the city center to have fun.

At this point, the boss will bring along new employees who haven't yet achieved results to experience this novel and exciting world that's not available domestically. By letting them taste a little success, they'll be more motivated to work harder for them in the future.

In other words, as long as they stayed in the entertainment venues in the city center, they could wait for the fraud groups to come to them. As a newcomer, Zhang Yang was so beautiful that, whether it was to motivate other new employees or to impress the bosses of other fraud companies, there was a high probability that Zhang Yang would be included.

Ah Chai talked a lot in one breath, then paused for a moment, turned to look at the little boy, and said with a smile, "Then it's up to them to go inside or wait at the door to search."

After listening, Chen Shu and Chen Chuan suddenly understood. This ancient Chinese trick of waiting for prey to run into a trap had indeed been used to its fullest extent by A-Chai, and these wandering local boys were perfect, definitely not arousing the suspicion of the fraud group's spies.

Chen Shu nodded and agreed to A-Chai's idea.

Immediately, Achai turned around and chattered away to the boy, then pulled out a small, transparent bag containing white powder from his pocket and tossed it to the boy.

The boy cheered and ran out.

Suppressing his anger, Chen Shu questioned, "A-Cai! How could you give that thing to the child!"

Ah Chai explained to the two shop owners, "Here, O means snacks for kids, well, expensive snacks."

Having no better option than to ask for his help, Chen Shu asked casually, "What did you say to him afterward?"

Ah Chai chuckled: "This is a deposit. We'll give him three more once we find the person."

Chen Shu's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart pounded rapidly.

Is this place even fit for human habitation?
