C190 If It Wasn't You Who else Could It Be?
Neil told Budhas all the advantages of the sewage treatment system that the professor had mentioned. Budhas nodded as he listened. Obviously, he was very satisfied with this system.
"Dear Neil, you are really my lucky general. This matter... You must have been exposed, but it doesn't matter. You can come to my laboratory. I will let you be the person in charge of my laboratory! " Budhas said with a smile on his face.
"Really? Thank you very much, boss. I will definitely work harder in the future and help you create more and better things." Professor Neal said excitedly.
The status of the Payton Family family that Budhas belonged to was not much different from the Chawton Family that Bruce belonged to. They were all powerful families in this city, and now, the Payton Family was paying more and more attention to the laboratory. The investment was also increasing. Therefore, if they could become the head of the laboratory... He would definitely be one of the people at the top of this city.
Although, on the way here, Professor Neal had already thought of leaving this city. However, he had thought of that without Budhas's promise. Of course, he wouldn't want to leave if he didn't want to. Furthermore, with the protection of the Payton Family, he wasn't afraid of the Chawton Family taking revenge on him.
Budhas was very satisfied with Professor Neal's performance. At least on the surface, it seemed like this was the case. In fact, in his heart, he looked down on Professor Neal. If he could sell the Chawton Family for money, then he could do the same for money. Selling out his own family was not reliable.
However, the family's laboratory had just been built. They didn't lack equipment, instruments, and so on. What they lacked were the advanced researchers. Professor and so on, so now he wanted to keep Neil... After all, although his character wasn't that great, he was still chosen by the Chawton Family to be placed in the laboratory. He definitely had the strength to do so.
However, once his family's laboratory was strengthened, such a person would definitely be the first to be cleaned up.
"Then, dear Professor Neal, shouldn't you let me take a look at that booklet first?" Budhas picked up the red wine in front of him, looked at the smiling Neil, and said faintly.
"Of course, of course. Boss, I was too excited and forgot about it. I will give it to you right away." As Neil spoke, he reached into his arms.
However, very quickly, the smile on Professor Neal's face froze. He stared blankly at the small booklet in his hand, and for a moment, there was no reaction.
"Professor Neal, what's wrong?" Budhas asked with some doubt.
Budhas's question woke Professor Neal up, but his face immediately turned pale. Cold sweat started to appear on his forehead, and his hands started to tremble.
Although it was still a small booklet in his hand, however, this small booklet and his previous one... It was completely different, the cover was different... The size is different, but the thickness has changed. The previous book had a lot of data and pictures, which was comparable to what the professor had spent a long time arranging. Therefore, there were many pages inside, and they were also very thick. However, the book in front of him was very thin.
"Professor Neal, did something happen?" Budhas also put down the wine glass in his hand. He also realized that something seemed to have happened.
Professor Neal did not speak, but his hands were trembling. He opened the small book, and his face changed completely.
It was different, completely different!
Before Professor Neal brought the booklet out, he had read the contents inside, so he knew what the first few pages were, but now this one was completely different.
Seeing Professor Neal ignore his question, he was stunned again. Budhas gave his bodyguard a look. Then... The bodyguard went forward and snatched the booklet from Professor Neal's hands. However, Professor Neal still did not have any reaction.
Budhas took the booklet with some doubt. Then, he flipped through it. Suddenly, his expression changed.
"Neil! Are you lying to me? Do you think I'm easy to fool?!" Budhas's voice had changed. He was no longer as gentle as before. Instead, he looked coldly at Neil. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with Neil now.
Neal was also shocked awake by Budhas's expression. He quickly said, "Boss, I didn't lie to you. I really didn't lie to you. I really stole a new sewage processing system from that laboratory."
"The sewage treatment system you mentioned, is this it?!" Budhas raised the booklet in his hand, and then... He slammed it hard on the table in front of him. "Do you think I'm stupid, or do you think I'm easy to fool?!"
Budhas threw the booklet on the table and opened it a little. There were words in it, but the handwriting was very messy and it was written very casually.
"There is a method to forge steel in here. It is something from hundreds of years ago. You actually took it out to trick me? Do you think I don't know the words? " Budhas's face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with a fierce light. Obviously, he was in a very bad mood right now.
"Boss, I don't know what happened either. When I took it out, it was clearly about the sewage processing system. I don't know how it became like this." Professor Neal explained anxiously.
"Who touched this book on the way here?" Budhas asked.
"No one else, just me." Neil said, "But I really don't know how it became like this. It wasn't like this just now."
"Only you?" Budhas asked again, "Neil, don't tell me you want to swallow that book by yourself. You have a big appetite."
"Boss, I don't have it. I really don't have it. After I stole it, I just wanted to give it to the boss. How could I dare to swallow it by myself?" The sweat on Neil's forehead became more and more. Don't look at how Budhas treated him so warmly just now. However, he knew what kind of person his boss was. Once he did something that would let him down, he would never let him go. Therefore, he couldn't admit it.
Furthermore, it was indeed not him who took it.
However, Budhas clearly did not believe Neil's words. Neil himself had said it himself. From beginning to end, he was the only one who had touched that thing. Furthermore... After he took it, he went straight to this place. No one else had the chance to touch it. That thing was not hidden by him. Who else could it be?
