"Are you the person in charge here?"
The police had already gotten involved in the investigation because the incident had become too significant.
Before Zhan Mohan could speak, those who had come to settle accounts shouted loudly.
"Hurry up and arrest him! This whole mess is because of this unscrupulous boss!"
"Exactly, make him pay for harming people! Pay for harming people!"
Zhan Mohan merely frowned, then said to the police, "This matter is not as simple as it appears. Our Zhan Group did invest in this project, but the construction part was not handled by us."
The police considered this, then said to other officers, "You secure the scene."
Afterward, he said to Zhan Mohan, "Mr. Zhan, since you say there's more to it, please come back to the police station with me for an investigation."
Zhan Mohan did not have any prepared evidence to prove this matter, but since the police had arrived, he had no choice but to go along.
However, before leaving, he sent a text message to Fang Xu, asking him to prepare the documents.
"Madam, Mr. Zhan sent a text message," Fang Xun said with a bit of surprise.
When Wei Yumeng saw the content of the message, she also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had also thought of this. They had already organized the documents and only needed a final check before sending them to Zhan Mohan.
"Wait," Wei Yumeng said after thinking for a moment. "Let's personally look up the other party's registration information and cancellation date at the Administration for Industry and Commerce, and ensure every detail is in place."
"Okay." Fang Xun's work didn't stop, and he continued to act according to Wei Yumeng's arrangements.
By the time Zhan Mohan arrived at the police station, the electronic version of the documents had already been sent to his phone.
He was a little surprised that it had been so fast.
However, he then remembered that he had just spoken with Wei Yumeng on the phone. A slight smile curved his lips; perhaps Wei Yumeng had discovered this issue in advance.
Since he wouldn't be able to return for a while, he could only ask Wei Yumeng to temporarily take care of the entire company.
"This is the information we've collected. It clearly states that during the project cooperation period, our Zhan Group would provide funds and personnel, while the specific construction situation would be handled by them."
The police officer read through all the documents. "But the other company has already been deregistered."
Zhan Mohan nodded. "That's where the problem lies. However, as the investor of this project, we will undertake the responsibility of compensating the families."
"Mr. Zhan, we have a clear understanding of the situation. However, we still need some time for investigation, so we hope you will not leave the city during this period."
Zhan Mohan stood up. "No problem. I will first arrange to appease the families of the victims. It might indeed take some time."
"That's good. You can go now."
The police officer said, personally escorting Zhan Mohan out.
After Zhan Mohan left, a police officer asked somewhat surprised, "Is that really the boss of the Zhan Group?"
"It should be."
"But this matter is complicated, with so many lives involved," the other person said, shaking his head helplessly.
However, the police officer said, "He just provided us with documents. If everything is confirmed to be true, then the Zhan Group will not bear full responsibility. But how it will be judged is uncertain."
After speaking, he turned and walked back into the police station.
After leaving the police station, Zhan Mohan immediately called Wei Yumeng.
"Yumeng, thank you just now."
Wei Yumeng was slightly startled by his words. "Why are you suddenly saying this?"
Zhan Mohan explained, "If I'm not mistaken, you had already prepared the documents before I even asked Fang Xu, didn't you?"
Wei Yumeng then realized what he was referring to. "I heard Fang Xun mention the situation earlier, so I realized that there wasn't no solution to the problem, and that's when I thought of this."
"Yumeng, I probably won't be able to return for a while, so I'm entrusting the company to you."
Zhan Mohan said this, planning to hold a meeting that evening to inform everyone that he was temporarily appointing Wei Yumeng as the company's acting head.
But at this moment, a shareholder happened to walk into the office.
"Madam, I've thought of some ways to deal with this matter and would like to chat with you."
Zhan Mohan was slightly taken aback by this voice. When did this shareholder become so trusting of Wei Yumeng?
Wei Yumeng quickly said to Zhan Mohan, "I need to be busy now. I'll call you back later."
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Zhan Mohan felt it was necessary to ask Fang Xun what had happened that day.
Wei Yumeng welcomed the person into her office. She naturally wouldn't refuse someone who voluntarily offered solutions for the Zhan Group.
However, Wei Yumeng was somewhat surprised by the person in front of her. This Lin Shi was one of the shareholders of the Zhan Group, but he had always been quietly doing his own thing and rarely stepped forward to resolve such matters.
"Mr. Lin, you just said you've thought of a way to resolve this matter?" Wei Yumeng said, personally pouring Lin Shi a glass of water.
Lin Shi seemed a bit unaccustomed to Wei Yumeng's politeness, but he still reached out and took the cup.
"This project actually has some issues on my part. The person who proposed this project was me," he said, frowning. "I just didn't expect things to turn out this way."
"Mr. Lin, this was just an accident. You don't need to blame yourself."
"I think perhaps I can help find the person who proposed the cooperation," Lin Shi continued. "This project was initially introduced by a friend of mine, and the person in charge there was a relative of my friend. I called him today, and he also didn't expect things to turn out this way, so he's also looking for that person in charge."
Wei Yumeng thought about it. If they could find the other party this way, it would be the best outcome, but would it really be that easy?
After all, the other party had made thorough preparations to escape, and she wasn't even sure if Lin Shi's so-called friend was truly unaware of this matter.
"Mr. Lin, I have a humble request," Wei Yumeng said helplessly.
"Please say."
"I hope that when you search, you will bring Zhan Group's bodyguards."
Lin Shi frowned upon hearing this. "Are you suspecting..."
"I apologize, Mr. Lin. I'm not suspecting you, but your friend, it's hard to say. Although he agreed to search, we don't know if he's actually doing it."
Lin Shi nodded. "That's good too. Please make arrangements then."
Wei Yumeng then called Fang Xun in. "Fang Xun, go and arrange for a team of bodyguards to accompany Mr. Lin."
Although Fang Xun was a little surprised, he complied.
Watching their retreating backs, Wei Yumeng could only hope that this matter would proceed smoothly. As long as that person was caught, the Zhan Group's situation would improve significantly.
