The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Early in the morning, the door of the sewing workshop slowly opened and the female workers walked into the workshop one after another.

At this time of year, the workshop is always filled with laughter, and the sounds of fabric cutting and sewing machines running interweave into a busy melody.

However, today, the entire workshop was silent, with only the monotonous squeaking sound of the ceiling fan above.

The female workers' eyes all turned to the sixth workbench in the third row - there, Qin Huairu's sewing machine was placed alone, with unfinished cloth spread on it and threads scattered aside, but this position was empty at this time.

Not only did they cast vague glances at the empty sewing machine, but even the female workers passing by subconsciously stayed away from this workstation, as if there was an invisible monster here and anyone who got close would be unlucky.

"This morning, the police who were arresting spies and police officers rushed directly into Qin Huairu's house."

"The sound of the gunshots woke up the entire community."

Wang Xiufen from the editing team leaned close to Zhao Guilan's ear, her voice filled with undisguised fear, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

"Many cars stopped at the entrance of the community, and a large group of people wearing Mao suits got out. They had fierce looks in their eyes and were holding long guns and short guns."

Zhao Guilan, who was wiping the sewing machine, suddenly had a trembling hand and the rag fell to the ground.

The scene from a few days ago couldn't help but emerge in her mind. Qin Huairu smiled and gave her a piece of fruit candy, asking her to take it back for her children. In the blink of an eye, gunshots were heard at home, people died, and she was arrested as a spy again.

How could Qin Huairu, who always worked silently in front of the sewing machine and spoke softly, be related to the spy?

Zhao Guilan bent down to pick up the rag and glanced at Qin Huairu's workstation. In front of her eyes, she seemed to still see the image of Qin Huairu working honestly at her workstation before, which was very different from her current image of being accused of being a spy.

The workshop director, Lao Jin, walked hurriedly with a pile of documents in his arms, his steps unsteady and his face full of anxiety.

The buttons of his Zhongshan suit were buttoned in the wrong place, his hair was a little messy, his usual capable look was gone, and he looked anxious and uneasy.

Although he had been warned long ago and had known that Qin Huairu would get into trouble, now that she had committed such a serious crime, as a workshop director, he was really worried.

A big traitor and a big spy appeared in the workshop he managed, and five people were killed at the arrest scene at home. When he received the news, he almost jumped up on the spot. As the head of the workshop, his heart was almost broken.

"What are you looking at? What are you chatting about? Just work hard and stop gossiping. The tasks assigned to you today must be completed~!"

Looking at the current working atmosphere in the workshop and the heads that quickly shrank back when they saw him coming, Director Jin immediately let out the worried temper in his chest.

Anyone can see how anxious Director Jin is at this moment. It's no wonder. Such a big thing has happened. It has little to do with the workers, but it has a lot to do with his direct superiors.

I guess Director Guo from workshop 1 was almost laughing out loud. Fortunately, he obeyed the arrangement and kicked Qin Huairu out of the workshop eight hundred years ago. If she had still stayed in the workshop, the person who would be terrified at this moment would be Director Guo.

"Work hard, no whispering!"

After repeating it once again, Director Jin took the materials and left the workshop. On the surface, he wanted to report to Secretary Li, but in reality, he definitely wanted to distance himself from the matter.

The female workers looked at the director's departing back, and the whispers gradually began to rise again.

"It must be related to the truck gun that the factory recently produced. In our workshop, we sew clothes every day. How could there be any secrets that would attract the attention of the spies?"

An older female worker said in a low voice.

This speculation made everyone present shudder. The most recent big event in the factory was the newly produced truck gun. Unexpectedly, it was targeted by spies so quickly, so they bribed the internal employees.

Not only the workers in the sewing workshop, but also the workers in other workshops had the same guess. However, all kinds of news about Qin Huairu spread quickly throughout the factory as if they had wings.

Even the past incident in which Qin Huairu and Liu Lan from the third canteen fought over a man was rumored to be very detailed.

In the heavy-duty canteen, the workers held their lunch boxes and had their meals ready, but they had no appetite and were discussing in low voices the matter of the widow Qin's third marriage.

There is now a new explanation for why Jia Dongxu from the same workshop was killed by Yi Zhonghai. What's more, it is quite explosive. There is even a lot of debate about whose children the three children belong to.

In the office building, the staff of the government departments put down their work and asked for details. Compared with the workers who were just watching the fun, they were worried. If this evil wind blows, who knows how many people will be knocked down. You know, Director Li hates criminals the most. Under his management, spies appeared inside the factory for the first time. Who knows if he will learn from it and look at the cadres in the government departments with suspicion.

In the past, no one paid much attention to confidentiality. They just talked about it verbally, saying what they should and shouldn't say, and it was inevitable that they would tell their families about some things in the factory.

But today, all the workers and even cadres who learned about the situation suddenly felt as if their mouths were tightly strangled by a pair of invisible hands.

No matter how many security and confidentiality classes the security department staff take, and how many times their tongues become sore and their lips become blistered from it, it may not be as personal an experience as this one.

Things happen outside, and no one knows whether they are true or not just based on what others say. Only when you experience it yourself will it be unforgettable.

At twelve o'clock noon, lunch time, a shrill broadcast suddenly sounded over the factory, echoing in every workshop and even the cafeteria.

The workers who were eating or resting suddenly became quiet and listened attentively to the news coming from the radio.

It can be said that this was just as the workers had expected. With such a big thing happening in the factory, the leaders would definitely not turn a blind eye, especially Director Li, who hated evil and would never cover it up. This matter was too big to be covered up at all.

However, this time, the voice coming from the loudspeaker was not the clear voice of the announcer Xiao Chu, but the factory director Li Feng himself speaking at the radio station. The low and serious voice echoed in every corner of the factory, making people shudder.

"Attention all employees, I'm Li Feng. I'm going to convene an emergency meeting for all employees in the auditorium at 2 pm. All non-important positions, on-duty personnel, and other employees must not be absent!"

The words "all employees, no one must be absent" have already shown Director Li's determination. He will definitely take this opportunity to convey the whole story of this incident to every employee in the factory.

Yes, if Director Li didn't say anything, it might be a storm for the employees. Who knows if someone around him, besides Qin Huairu, might be a spy, or someone who has been bribed by a spy? After all, people's hearts are hidden.

Everyone in the company is in a state of panic, and a meeting of all employees is needed to restore their confidence and allow them to produce with peace of mind.

The auditorium was already packed with nearly 10,000 employees. Unlike in the past, this time no one was told to bring stools, and as there were so many people, everyone had to stand. The air was filled with tension.

The portraits hanging on the wall were solemn and dignified, as if watching this special meeting. The August 1st emblem was also polished to a shine by the Propaganda Department, reminding all the employees present of the difference between a military factory and the previous civilian factories.

When the time came, Li Feng walked up to the podium, wearing a military green Type 65 uniform with the badge on his chest shining brightly. Following behind him were all the members of the Red Star Factory's archives committee. This time, none of the leaders sat down.

Li Feng's eyes swept over the workers below the stage with a solemn expression. He held the microphone with his hand. The auditorium suddenly became completely quiet. All pairs of eyes looked anxiously at their factory director.

During this turbulent time, Director Li seemed to have become the pillar of support for the Red Star Factory. With him around, no matter how big the problem was, it seemed that it could be handled.

"Comrades!"

Li Feng's voice rang out like a huge bell, "Today, I want to inform you of an extremely serious leak of information within the factory, as well as the rebellion of some employees!"

He slapped the folder in his hand heavily. "Qin Huairu, a female worker in our factory's sewing workshop, is suspected of colluding with spies and selling important military production information in the factory to the enemy!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar in the auditorium.

Exclamations and discussions arose one after another. People in the back row stood on tiptoe and people in the front row whispered to each other. When they heard Li Feng admit it openly without any evasion, even though they had already received the news from various channels, everyone's face was filled with shock and difficulty in accepting it.

Director Jin, who was standing in the front row of the team, turned pale in an instant and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He took out a handkerchief and kept wiping it. Everyone could see that he wanted to cry but had no tears.

The female workers in the same workshop covered their mouths with fear in their eyes. The old masters in the corner shook their heads and sighed heavily, as if the factory that had been with them for many years was like the setting sun.

"Comrades! This is not a joke, nor is it alarmist talk. This is really happening!"

Li Feng raised his voice, his tone filled with anger and grief. He looked sincerely at all the employees in the audience and even covered his chest with his hands.

"Enemy spies are hiding next to us, and we cannot afford to neglect our confidentiality work! Look at Qin Huairu, she usually works normally and behaves normally. Who would have thought that she was bribed by enemy spies and became a pawn in our factory? What she sold out was not just some important information, but also state secrets, the hard work of countless workers who worked day and night, and a matter of national security!"

As Li Feng spoke, the factory archives committee members on the stage all looked very unhappy, especially Jiang Xianda. He was unaware of the situation and had even helped Qin Huairu.

Suddenly, Qin Huairu turned out to be a traitor bribed by the spies. At this moment, he was no more panicked than Director Jin. (End of this chapter)
