Chapter 710: Machine Damaged

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

Being able to arrange such a large competition venue in such a short time was obviously not an easy task. When Mei Shu took over, it was just a huge empty meeting room. It took a lot of effort to transform it into what it was now.

What pleased Feng Mo the most was Mei Shu’s quotation.

Even with Feng Mo’s support, Mei Shu’s price was the lowest among everyone.

“Rest assured, regardless of my relationship with Lin He, just because you appreciate me so much this time, Teacher Feng, I won’t let you down.” Mei Shu led them around, and then the three of them went to a restaurant happily.

After dinner, Mei Shu was about to send the two of them home when she received a phone call just as they left the restaurant.

The caller was Manager Deng, who was in charge of arranging the competition venue. As soon as the call connected, his urgent voice came through the receiver.

“Ms. Mei, something’s wrong. I just checked the backstage equipment and found that several very valuable cameras have their circuits burned out. I’ve already contacted the repairmen, but it will take at least half an hour for them to arrive.”

“Okay, 1 got it. I’m heading over right now.” Mei Shu’s narrowed eyes were filled with anger.

Seeing this, Lin He hurriedly asked, “Is something wrong? Maybe you should go and deal with it first. I can take my mom home.”

Gratefully, Mei Shu nodded at her and then felt guilty as she turned to Feng Mo. “Teacher Feng, I’m sorry, something urgent has come up in my company, and 1 won’t be able to send you home. Please take care on your way back.”

Feng Mo smiled understandingly. “It’s okay, I didn’t expect you to send us personally. Go take care of your business. It’s rare to see a girl as career-oriented as you. I fully support you.”

Still feeling apologetic, Mei Shu said, “1’11 definitely visit you next time. I’ll call a car for you two now.”

“No need, we can call one ourselves.” Feng Mo waved her hand with a smile. “Go on, don’t worry about us.”

“Alright then, I’ll leave now.” With that, Mei Shu got into her car. Before the car started moving, she pressed down the car window, waving goodbye to the two of them.

Tang Mei was a bit anxious. “Ms. Mei, 1 also received a message from Manager Deng. Our company has invested a lot of money in that batch of equipment, and they were all brand new. How could such a serious problem suddenly occur?”

Mei Shu was also unsure of the situation, but she remained composed. “Let’s go to the scene and see what’s going on. If this isn’t an accident but someone targeting our company, I won’t let them off easily.”

Her prediction came true.

When Mei Shu and Tang Mei rushed back to the scene, the repairman had just finished inspecting the circuit. With a frown, he shook his head. “It’s beyond repair, completely fried. These machines are most afraid of water damage. While it’s uncertain if it would cause a malfunction, any mechanical equipment is at great risk when exposed to water. How could you be so careless?”

Mei Shu furrowed her brows. “What’s going on, Deng Yao?”

Deng Yao hurriedly explained, “Ms. Mei, I swear, after these machines were installed, the backstage door has always been locked. It’s impossible for anyone to enter, let alone have them damaged by water. Could it be that these machines themselves had problems, and we just didn’t notice?”

“Impossible.” The repairman was the first to oppose this speculation. “I checked these machines when they first arrived, and there were indeed no problems. They were definitely soaked recently.”

“It’s fortunate that we discovered this before the competition. Otherwise, once the machines were turned on during the competition, a massive short circuit could occur. It could affect the progress of the competition at best, and at worst, it could lead to a serious fire!”

Upon hearing this, Deng Yao’s heart sank, and he quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, Ms. Mei, it’s my mismanagement. I’ll find out who sneaked into the backstage!”

“Who has the key to this room?” Mei Shu didn’t blame him but prioritized finding the culprit behind this incident.

“Only my secretary and I have it.” Deng Yao quickly replied.

Deng Yao’s secretary, Xiao Ke, was a recent college graduate who had never seen such a big fuss before. He felt a little weak in the legs and said, “Ms. Mei, 1 swear, my key has always been in my briefcase and has never been lent to anyone!”

Mei Shu raised her chin slightly. “Take it out and let me see.”

Xiao Ke hurriedly fumbled in his briefcase and handed over the key. “Ms. Mei, the key has always been in my bag. I can guarantee that!”

“Yes, Xiao Ke is always cautious. Many important files and archives in our department are entrusted to him for safekeeping, and he has never made a mistake.” Deng Yao also vouched for Xiao Ke.

Mei Shu pondered for a moment. “Order a new batch of machines and replace them immediately. Don’t delay the competition..”
