There was a meeting being held in the investigator’s office.

Although the meeting was held in the same room as before, it was not the same group of people.

“There are some people who are on leave today due to special circumstances. Therefore, they will not be attending today’s meeting. Now, everyone, please gather the information that you have.”

The lead investigator had a weird expression on his face when he mentioned that the others were on leave.

“Leader, our team has taken over the case from them. Based on our observations for the day, we have made the following conclusions about Toilet No. 1.” 

“On the first day, a total of 158 people entered Toilet No. 1. Among these 158 people, there were 6 thieves, 3 fraudsters, and 1 murderer. Oddly enough, after using the toilets, the criminals turned themselves in and confessed to their crimes.”

“There were also 19 government personnel, 32 company personnel, and 8 accountants. All of them used their real names to report their own superiors who had committed crimes such as non-compliance.”

“23 of them had resigned. The reasons for their resignations were all different. There were 12 of them who wanted to fulfill their dreams of starting a business. 7 of them decided to return home and accompany their parents. There were another 2 of them who went to other cities in search of true love. We have 1 individual who went overseas for sex reassignment surgery and another who decided to pursue a career in the sex industry.”

“The rest of them had a complete change in their attitude towards life. They all started working and striving hard. It was as if they had completely understood everything and knew their purpose.”

“Based on the investigation’s data, we made a preliminary inference about the special function that Toilet No. 1 seemed to possess. It seems that Toilet No.1 causes people to repent their mistakes. It also resulted in people learning to listen to their own hearts.”

After hearing the first group’s report, the elite investigators had a weird look on their faces.

The toilet in the park did not seem like much before. Although people were exhausted from defecating, the toilet still fulfilled its function as a toilet.

However, Toilet No. 1 actually causes people to repent and further understand their own hearts. Was this still the function of a toilet?

“Understood. Group two, please start reporting.”

The leader nodded whilst instructing group two. 

“Leader, our target is Toilet No. 2. According to our observation for the day, we obtained the following information.

“In a day, there were a total of 137 people who entered Toilet No. 2. 42 of them entered repeatedly. Among these 42 people, 17 of them entered the toilet more than five times. Among those 17 people, 12 of them were in a relationship.” 

“Based on the investigators’ personal experience after entering Toilet No. 2, people seemed to have a deeper feeling when they had sex in the toilet. The toilet gave a sense of pleasure that they could not extricate themselves from.”

“…”

After the second group finished reporting, there was a strange atmosphere in the meeting room.

If this attribute was placed in a hotel, the hotel would have a lot of business.

However, people would be speechless if they knew such an attribute was placed in a toilet.

“Okay, group three. Please continue reporting.”

The leader tried his best to maintain a serious expression. However, he thought to himself, “What kind of weird toilet is this?”.

“Leader, we investigated Toilet No. 3. Based on our observation, there was nothing special about the situation in the toilet.”

“A total of 112 people entered Toilet No. 3. However, these 112 people did not show any special behavior after going to the toilet. They did not have diarrhea, they did not repent for their lives, they did not have sex, and they did not turn in or report their superiors. Their actions were completely normal.”

“After we entered the toilet, we did not feel any discomfort, and we did not feel anything unusual when we left.”

The leader heaved a sigh of relief. There was finally a normal toilet.

“Bang Bang Bang!”

Someone knocked on the door.

“Leader, the target surveillance personnel sent news that the target is recruiting staff.”

A staff member came in and reported.

“Then wait for me. I’ll go make a call first.”

After the leader heard the news, he stood up and left.

A while later, the leader returned.

“According to the higher-ups, our branch will form a special investigation team.”

“They want to investigate the target’s behavior. So, from now on, all of you will have to go to the target’s company to work. The team will give you half an hour to prepare.”

“Prepare your respective degrees and certificates, then go to the talent market to apply,” said the leader to the elite investigators in the room.

“Yes! I promise to complete the task!”

…

Smith had no idea that he was being targeted by the investigators. 

He began to recruit staff from the talent market.

The payment balance from the highway construction had been transferred to the company’s account. However, the company did not have anyone else aside from him. Therefore, he needed to recruit staff for his company.

Initially, Smith only planned on recruiting one finance person. However, after thinking about it, he knew that he had to develop and expand the company more in order to prepare for the future.

Instead of him doing everything himself, it was better to get the company in shape and put the company’s framework in place.

Smith then set up positions on the talent market with a sign next to it that said: 

“Super Power Construction Engineering Co. Ltd is recruiting a deputy general manager, a finance director, an accountant, a director of personnel and resources, two administrative commissioners, a general manager’s secretary, and a receptionist.”

Initially, Smith thought that the recruitment process would be very simple.

However, after waiting for a long time, only two new graduates wanted to apply for the positions of deputy general manager and director of Human Resources. No one else applied for the other positions.

The two graduates who applied for the positions were also in a different field. They majored in biological engineering.

They did not know anything about architecture.

While he was contemplating on whether he should go to a headhunting firm, the elite investigators arrived.

“Mr. Smith, I want to apply for the position of finance director. This is my resume.”

Smith took his resume and read it. This person was quite unusual.

“Barrett, 32 years old, graduated from Harvard. After graduation, he worked as a finance director at Wall Street’s Jonson Company.”

“Why don’t you continue working for your original company?” Smith asked curiously.

“I wouldn’t dare to divorce my wife if I wasn’t in the mood,” Barrett answered expressionlessly.

The reason was not bad.

“Then what would you do?” Smith was already very satisfied with his answer, but he still wanted to ask further.

“I know everything related to finance, especially cooking the accounts,” said Barrett confidently.

Smith felt strange. Was cooking the accounts straightforward? 

“Alright, you can go. We don’t need to falsify accounts. I don’t want to get caught for tax evasion,” Smith waved his hand and returned his resume.

Barrett was completely dumbfounded. He wanted to monitor him. What should he do now?
