Supreme Heir Son-in-law

After obtaining all the information, Xu Ke and Wang Cuixia went to Wang Lishan’s office.

Unlike the previous two people, Wang Lishan’s office surprisingly used a special burglar-proof door.

Even Old Master Xu didn’t have anything like this in his place, which sufficiently indicates just how many secrets Wang Lishan is hiding here.

"Why has this place turned into this? I remember it wasn’t like this on the first day I came."

Xu Ke clearly remembered that on the first day he came to inspect the company, Wang Lishan’s office was not like this.

For it to change like this now, the only explanation is that over the last couple of days, Wang Lishan must have renovated his office completely.

Wang Lishan’s actions are really suspicious, no matter who it’s placed upon, one would definitely be suspicious of him.

However, Xu Ke quickly realized this is probably a deceptive trick.

How could Wang Lishan, the cunning old fox, possibly make such a low-level mistake?

The only explanation is that he’s doing this entirely to mislead him.

The real stuff isn’t hidden in his office; it’s hidden elsewhere.

Xu Ke isn’t interested in the burglar-proof door; he’s interested in the things Wang Lishan has hidden away.

After all, this is his second time coming to the company. He’s not too familiar with the internal situation.

So he must ask Wang Cuixia about these issues, as she has been with the company for over a decade.

"Mom, has Wang Lishan ever worked elsewhere, or has he ever changed offices?"

Rather than aimlessly smashing doors, Xu Ke decided to start from this angle.

Another office? This question stumped Wang Cuixia.

After all, although she’s been with the company for so many years, she generally doesn’t remember such minor details.

"Let me check, this kind of thing is generally handled by the logistics department. By the way, I’ve already sent you several records on your phone, take a look in the meantime." As she spoke, Wang Cuixia went to contact people from the logistics department.

Xu Ke looked at his phone; sure enough, Wang Cuixia sent him a flow chart of bank transactions.

This flow chart belonged to Zhang Qiang’s bank card, and at first glance, there didn’t seem to be any issues.

However, one item caught Xu Ke’s attention.

It’s the regular monthly occurrence: Zhang Qiang’s card always has two million in large transactions.

In the past, such large transactions surely needed company approval, but Zhang Qiang did this monthly, and the company didn’t know, evidently he didn’t need to go through the company.

Since the card was issued by the company, yet Zhang Qiang didn’t need company approval for these actions, it implies someone in the company is covering for him.

Although it’s unclear what he uses this two million for every month, it’s probably not for a good cause.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so secretive, keeping it hidden from everyone.

Combining the previously discovered clues, Xu Ke suspects behind the scenes Zhang Qiang is involved in illegal activities. But there isn’t any definitive evidence, so Xu Ke is hesitant to draw conclusions lightly.

After reviewing the entire statement, Xu Ke didn’t find anything else.

It means they’ve found everything they can for now.

If it comes to those hidden matters, they are currently powerless.

"Son, you were right. As you said, Wang Lishan indeed changed his office before, but that office has been abandoned for a long time, no one uses it. Occasionally, Wang Lishan goes there to retrieve some old documents."

Suddenly energized, Xu Ke realized there was indeed something fishy.

It seems Wang Lishan really used misdirection, attempting to confuse perception with this approach.

"I’ve already sent the previous office address to your phone; let’s go and have a look now."

By now, Wang Cuixia seemed rather impatient; today’s events evidently had a significant impact on her.

"Mom, why are you more anxious than I am? Haven’t we already caught two big fish? Though Wang Lishan may be a big shot, he can’t be fatter than Li Dong."

Hearing Xu Ke’s words, Wang Cuixia gently shook her head.

"Son, some matters aren’t as simple as they appear. Although these two seem like big fish, I have a feeling compared to Wang Lishan, they may pale in comparison. The real major problem in the company might be someone else."

Wang Cuixia’s words left Xu Ke surprised, as he originally thought investigating Zhang Qiang and Li Dong was already significant.

Yet unexpectedly, the real big fish turns out to be Wang Lishan, who’s been hiding very deeply.

Following the address on his phone, Xu Ke quickly arrived at another office area.

This office area was now rarely used; the company planned to remodel it into an employee recreation area.

In an unremarkable corner, Xu Ke found the office Wang Lishan once used.

The office looked extremely outdated, but its lock was brand-new.

Clearly, it was recently replaced and hadn’t been used much.

It seemed Wang Lishan, the old fox, was really guilty, periodically changing locks on a deserted old office.

For Xu Ke, this lock was as simple as a piece of cake, and in just two attempts, it was broken open.

Upon entering the office, a pungent smell rushed in.

The office’s air had not circulated in a long time, leaving behind a damp odor.

"It’s hard to believe this guy used to work here; he managed to live in this kind of environment."

"Son, don’t look at how rundown it is now. Back over ten years ago, this room was one of the top in the company. But ever since the new building was erected, this floor sees few visitors. Gradually, it started to decay."

Listening to Wang Cuixia, Xu Ke finally understood why it was so dilapidated.

After letting the air clear for a bit, Xu Ke began searching the office for suspicious clues.

Like any typical office, there wasn’t anything particularly strange here.

However, given it hadn’t been used in a long time, the desk was covered in rust.

Xu Ke rummaged through surrounding cabinets; aside from daily company files, he didn’t find anything notable.

He then focused his attention below the desk, hypothesizing there might be mechanisms or such down there.

But after checking thoroughly, he found absolutely nothing.

The desk appeared as plain as can be, no different from any other ordinary desk.
