Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Sister Man, you’re finally here. The hospital has already taken the corpse away. The police just spoke to a few colleagues at the event location for questioning. 1 more careful and secretly recorded the entire conversation. Listen.”

After experiencing the tempering at the construction site for the past few months, Chen Wei’s skin had become much tanned. The originally fair and tender young master had now grown into a real man.

Shi Man took the cell phone from him and pressed the play button of the recording to listen carefully to the ins and outs of the matter.

Everyone referred to the man who jumped off the building to commit suicide as Xiao Hui. He was young, but he had dropped out of school early to work with his father. When they heard that there was an explosion in G City, the father and son came to G City to participate in the city construction and wanted to take the opportunity to earn a sum of money.

When Xiao Hui first entered the construction site, he was diligent and capable. He was also willing to suffer. Even Chen Wei looked at him in a different light.

The two of them were about the same age and often went for drinks with a few other colleagues after work.

However, recently, Xiao Hui seemed to have been possessed. Not only did he smile foolishly all day, but he also had to ask Chen Wei for leave from time to time.

The construction project was now in a hurry to be completed. Chen Wei should not have given him breaks so often, but on account that he was about the same age as him and was honest, he thought that he had something urgent and gave him a break every time.

After Xiao Hui received the approval, he would leave the construction site dressed neatly and would not return until the next morning when he needed to clock in.

As time passed, the workers who lived in the same house were curious if he had a girlfriend, but they had never seen Xiao Hui call a woman in front of them.

They couldn’t hold back their curiosity and asked a few times, but Xiao Hui only stammered and didn’t say anything. In the end, he even gave them a silly smile.

Chen Wei had also talked to him about this, but whether it was seriously calling him into the office to talk or using the opportunity of drinking to get information, Xiao Hui did not reveal anything.

Chen Wei couldn’t be bothered with him. If he came to apply for leave again, Chen Wei would deduct his salary and bonus and even give him a warning.

After his father found out, he scolded him a few times in public, but unfortunately, it was useless.

Until recently, Xiao Hui suddenly began to sigh frequently at work. He did not sleep at night and walked out of the dormitory alone. He went to the corner and stared at his cell phone without talking to anyone.

Then, Xiao Hui suddenly screamed and jumped off the building today.

Chen Wei waited for her to hear the whole story before sighing and admitting her mistake. “Sister Man, I’m sorry. If I had discovered his problem earlier or simply fired him, this might not have happened at our construction site.”

“Let’s not talk about this first.” Shi Man had no intention of blaming him. She frowned and looked at the old man who was stopped by the workers on the other side. “Is that Xiao Hui’s father?”

“Yes.” Chen Wei nodded slightly. Seeing that Shi Man was about to go over and talk to the man, he hurriedly advised worriedly, “Sister Man, that man wants to blame us for Xiao Hui’s death now so that he can ask us for compensation. It’s better if you don’t see him.”

Shi Man walked over indifferently. “We’ll meet sooner or later. We can’t hide.”

She didn’t like to avoid problems when she encountered them. She had to resolve things one by one so that she could complete what she wanted to do step by step.

When that person saw Shi Man walking towards him, he immediately perked up and struggled even harder. “Your leader is here. Let go of me quickly and let me talk to her. I have to get an explanation today. My son can’t die in vain!”

Shi Man quickly stood in front of the man.

Chen Wei gestured for the workers to let go of the man’s hand and glared at him unhappily. “Your son suddenly jumped off a building to commit suicide during construction. It wasn’t an accident caused by the safety of our construction site. This matter has nothing to do with us. What explanation do you want from us?”

“Why would a good person commit suicide? Xiao Hui has always been a particularly cheerful child. Why did he suddenly commit suicide when he came to your construction site to work? I think there might be violence at your construction site that made my son contract that illness… Oh! Depression! That must be it!”

Xiao Hui’s father righteously pushed the responsibility to the construction site, but he knew very well that there had actually been some clues about his son’s abnormality long ago. It was just that he had not fulfilled his responsibility as a father and did not care about his son.

But Xiao Hui was already dead. He had raised a son for nothing. If he did not get compensation, wouldn’t he have nothing to live for the rest of his life?

Shi Man knew what he was thinking, so she naturally did not stand on ceremony. “I’ll definitely cooperate with the police’s investigation on whether there’s any violence. However, your son has already been pulled to the hospital. Are you sure you want to miss the last time you see your son because of these things?”

The man was clearly stunned for a moment before his expression changed. His indignant expression instantly turned into grief.. He patted his thigh and cried, “My poor son! If I had known, I wouldn’t have let you come to this construction site! Why did you lose your life now!”
