Seeing that it was He Yuanyuan, Lin Yi hesitated for a few seconds before picking up.

“Where are you?”

“In Yanjing.”

“Did the results of the lithography machine get stolen?”

This was the first time He Yuanyuan spoke to Lin Yi in such a formal tone.

“Yeah.”

“Have you found the mole?”

“Not yet,” Lin Yi answered truthfully.

“Do you have a suspect in your heart? Is it Qiu Xucheng?”

“You think it was him?”

“I called him as soon as it happened, but I couldn’t get through.”

“I’m also suspecting him now. I don’t have any substantial evidence.”

On the other end of the line, He Yuanyuan was silent for a long time before she spoke.

“I’m sorry. I should have fired him back then.”

“This has nothing to do with you. Don’t feel so burdened.”

“You don’t have to comfort me. I’m directly responsible for this.” He Yuanyuan said.

“Why don’t you scold me now? 1 definitely won’t retort.”

“Don’t talk nonsense with me. I’m busy now and don’t have time to bother about you,” Lin Yi said.

“The situation has been a little chaotic recently. Keep an eye on the company alongside Old Qi.”

“Got it.”

After hanging up, Ji Qingyan also called.

Lin Yi explained the situation before hanging up.

In the next few hours, Lin Yi’s phone didn’t stop ringing.

It was either a phone call or a WeChat message, but he didn’t pick it up to avoid being annoyed to death by these unimportant people.

At eight in the evening, Lin Yi received a call from Liu Hong.

He had discovered the whereabouts of everyone who was not present in the research inst.i.tute.

He had also gathered detailed information about their exact whereabouts.

It was almost as Lu Ying had said.

Only Qiu Xucheng seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

Although there was no clear evidence yet, Lin Yi guessed that he should be the spy in the laboratory.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi smiled.

This Mitsui family was really impressive. They had caused him to suffer such a huge setback.

Inexplicably, Lin Yi thought of what Yushi Mitsui had said before he died.

He didn’t finish his sentence. It seemed that the person he asked him to be careful of couldn’t be Caie Mitsui.

It should be his father, Takaya Mitsui!

Thinking of this person he had never met before, Lin Yi was very impressed.

He bided his time for over half a year, leaving no trace or evidence of his actions. It’s not something an ordinary person could easily achieve.

In comparison, Yushi Mitsui’s games seemed amateurish.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a message from Caie Mitsui. There were only three words on it.

“I’m sorry.”

Lin Yi savored the words carefully and threw the phone aside.

He did not say a word.

Sunrise Land, Mitsui Manor.

As a world-famous consortium, the Mitsui family’s residence was comparable to a palace. It was extremely luxurious.

Compared to Yushi Mitsui’s house that was close to nature, the Mitsui family’s house seemed to serve as a deliberate reminder to outsiders .

Our family is very rich!

“Dad, why are you doing this?!”

In the living room of the four-story villa, Caie Mitsui shouted at the man sitting on the sofa.

There was anger between her brows that she could not control.

The man on the sofa was wearing a set of grayish-black pajamas. A pair of gold-rimmed gla.s.ses rested on the bridge of his nose, and he had a small mustache on his chin. This was in sharp contrast to his tall body.

This man was none other than Caie Mitsui’s father, Takaya Mitsui.

This series of events was all arranged by him in the dark.

His goal was also very simple. He was setting up a hidden chess piece that could either attack or defend with as he saw fit.

Back then, Caie Mitsui had failed every time she tried to contact Lin Yi. In addition, she had also done some things he was unsatisfied with.

Takaya Mitsui also concluded that the person called Lin Yi was not inferior to his daughter in ability and methods.

He decided to arrange this to keep Lin Yi in check.

However, the reason why he still contacted Shen Tianzhuo was because there was still one thing that he had yet to solve.

Although there were other alternatives, none of the options would be as practical as having Shen Tianzhuo join them.

However, he didn’t expect Lin Yi to discover his actions.

“What are you shouting about? Don’t you have any rules?”

Takashi Mitsui was also reading the book in his hand. His voice was indifferent, and he did not look at Caie Mitsui.

“You’re discrediting the Mitsui family by doing this!”

Even though the person sitting opposite him was his father, Caie Mitsui did not show any mercy.

“I didn’t want to do this, but you didn’t show any results after so long, so I handled it myself. Otherwise, if this dragged on, not only would we not be able to rope Lin Yi in, we wouldn’t be able to gain any advantage in the photolithography machine project. That’s why 1 acted at this time.”

“I don’t think you know what kind of person Lin Yi is. His abilities and methods are greater than you think.”

“Of course I do. He was able to win over someone like Shen Tianzhuo and then invest more than 100 billion unconditionally. I’ve never seen Lin Yi’s courage and boldness in any other young man.”

Takaya Mitsui paused.

“But he’s still a young man, lacking the experience and skill I possess. This time, I’ll let him learn his lesson. In the future, he’ll go much further on this path, so it’s for his own good.”

“But 1 still advise you to think of a way to settle this matter as soon as possible.” Caie Mitsui said,

“With my understanding of Lin Yi, he won’t let it go. After suffering such a huge loss, he’ll pay it back double!”

Caie Mitsui recalled the time she spent with Lin Yi, and her body couldn’t help but tremble.

Every time they fought before, it was always her alone against Lin Yi.

Even though she sometimes came out slightly scarred, it did not really matter. However, it was different this time.

It was the entire Mitsui family standing against him now!

If something went wrong, the Mitsui Family would be greatly affected!

“Then I’ll wait for him.” Takaya Mitsui continued to flip through the book in his hand without looking at Caie Mitsui.

Meanwhile, her father had never taken Lin Yi seriously.

In his opinion, Lin Yi was indeed outstanding, but he was just a young boy.

He was casually doing this to toy with him.

He felt there was still a huge gap between him and Lin Yi.

However, Takaya Mitsui did not know that Lin Yi had delegated authority over the research of the photolithography machine to his team. He did not ask about anything other than the money.

In other words, he only defeated Shen Tianzhuo, not Lin Yi.

“Phew…”

Caie Mitsui took a deep breath and turned to leave.

“I’ve already done my best. If anything bad ends up happening, you’ll have to bear it alone..”
