Ke Baisha strode to the office with several rolled up newspapers under her arms. Bu Aiqian said: I wanted to find you, but I couldn't find you.You leave the hotel. To catch the tide, so be sure to get up early.Baisha explained. How's your luck? Fish don't take the bait. A man has come twice.Ai Qian said: He refused to leave his name, he said that there is a very important event. Does he look rich?Baisha asked. Not much, like a normal salary. Hey.Baisha said. He will come again.He is anxious to see you.And said he must see you in person. I will meet him, Bai Sha said: And I must.Since Tang Nuo is going to Europe and leave me to work hard to earn money for him, I will choose some easy cases, not too full, not hungry, not dangerous, not strenuous

The door is opened. As soon as Bu Aiqian looked at the person, she hurriedly said in a low voice: Here he is again. Ke Baisha put a smiling face on her face as if she was receiving customers, and she greeted them with a capable posture all over her body. Good morning!What can I do for you? Are you Mrs. Ke? Yes. Ke Baisha?Ke Lai's private detective agency, one of the two bosses? That's right.Bai Sha smiled and said: Please tell me, what do you want me to do?Many detective agencies only take on cases they are good at. Our detective agency takes on all kinds of cases, as long as they have money.

The man put his hand into the inner pocket of his jacket, very good, Mrs. Ke, please take this first.He said. He shoved a stack of documents into Mrs. Ke's hand.She picked it up, looked at the typing on it, and asked: What is this?The answer from the other party was as quick as the firing of a machine gun.He said: Los Angeles County Superior Court hearing notice.The plaintiff, Peng Yinmeng, sued the defendant, Ke Baisha.Here are the same two court notices and plaintiff's statement for Ke Baisha herself, and Ke Baisha's part of the Ke Lai family.The time when the High Court wants you to appear in person, Kebetha

Baisha took back the letter holding the document, trying to throw the document out. do not do that.The man warned her, "It won't do you any good."If you have any questions, you can consult your lawyer. You don’t have to blame me at all. You can read the content more, goodbye!The man finished these words in one breath, obviously he has a lot of memory, and he is an experienced court document server.Before Baisha could find out the words she wanted to use to scold him, he had already left the scene in a flash. Bu Aiqian was the one who spoke earlier, she said: What kind of nonsense is this?

Ke Baisha took off the rubber band that bound the document, unfolded it, and read aloud: California, Los Angeles County Superior Court Plaintiff: Peng Yinmeng Defendant: Ke Baisha (I and the senior partner of Ke Lai's private detective agency count two identities) Lai Tangnuo (I and the senior partner of Ke Lai's private detective agency count two identities) The above-mentioned plaintiff sued the above-mentioned defendant based on the following facts: 1. The above-mentioned two defendants established a partnership in the city of Los Angeles, the Collier Private Detective Agency.

2. On April 8th of this year, in Los Angeles County, California, the above-mentioned defendant deliberately and maliciously made inaccurate statements in public, which damaged the plaintiff's character and loyalty, and affected the plaintiff's reputation to an inestimable degree. 3. At the time mentioned above, in the private office of a Bei Fude (Bei is the plaintiff's employer), the defendant said that the plaintiff was a cunning slut.It was said that the plaintiff fell in love with the boss and wanted to drive the boss away so that he could marry the boss; that the plaintiff peeked at what happened in the office from the door; and that the plaintiff wrote an anonymous letter to the boss's wife, saying that the plaintiff was a woman with a sweet heart and a sword in her belly.The defendant stated that the anonymous letter written by the plaintiff caused the death of a maid from Beifude's family, Leng Sally (the cause of death is still under investigation by the police).

4. Everything the defendant said was intentional rumors.It's all inaccurate.When the defendant said these words, he knew that they were not true, but he said them deliberately, with the purpose of slandering the plaintiff. 5. All the above-mentioned defendants' words were spoken in front of the plaintiff, the plaintiff's employer, and other witnesses, so the plaintiff found himself embarrassed, greatly shocked, and emotionally traumatized.Because of what the above-mentioned defendant said, on the above-mentioned April 8th, the above-mentioned employer of the plaintiff fired the plaintiff.

6. Everything the defendant said was not true, and it was immediately confirmed by one of the above-mentioned other witnesses when the defendant spoke. It can be seen that the defendant did maliciously damage his reputation and personality for a purpose. Therefore, the plaintiff required the defendant to pay 50,000 yuan in actual losses, plus 50,000 yuan in supervisory and punitive damages, totaling 100,000 yuan.All expenses incurred by the plaintiff in litigation shall be paid by the defendant according to customary practice. Attorney for the plaintiffs The vitality brought to Ke Baisha by the sea breeze slipped away from her body.She sat down in a chair.His mother's!she says.But how can she sue you?Bu Aiqian said solemnly: You didn't cause her to be arrested or suffer any other losses.

Baisha said: She must be crazy.Before everyone left Mr. Bei's office, everything was clarified. The letter was written by Sally Leng.As for why, only God knows.It doesn't quite make sense.Write an anonymous letter.Make Mrs. Bei doubt herself.But she did it.This matter has nothing to do with Yin Meng, everyone already knows about it. Have you ever apologized to her? Of course not, she had nothing to lose except shed a few tears. But in the notice she said she was fired by the boss.Bu Aiqian said: Since she is innocent, why should she be fired? I don't understand either, Baisha said: I think it must be for other reasons.Before Officer Mi and I went to his office that morning, they had already had an argument.

How do you know? I at least know she cried.God!Maybe that flush fake took advantage of my opportunity to talk about her and fired her. Maybe so. good!I'll show him right away. How could she sue her partner for this reason?Bu Aiqian asked: This matter has nothing to do with Tang Nuo at all. Baisha said: They believed that my actions represented myself and our partnership.I can delay the case for a while and say that Tang Nuo is in Europe, and it won't work when I come back. I will represent two people in the lawsuit alone.We don't need to worry Tang Nuo. When Tang Nuo comes back, everything will be over.

Bai Sha glanced at her watch.I'll go see Mr. Bei and show him some color.I can find out what the hell is going on behind the scenes.I'm not going to let him use me as an excuse.If Tang Nuo is not around, I will make mistakes.It was supposed to be a simple case, but I shouldn't have gone fishing when I found out that there were difficulties. Now someone wants to sue us for 100,000 yuan, claiming to compensate for the loss, hey! The pleading said that you scolded her, did you scold her? Bai Sha opened the door.Turning back: Of course, who else but me?She walked down the hallway, took the elevator down, and found a taxi in front of the building.Tell the driver the address of Beifude's office, and add another sentence: hurry up! The secretary in Northford's reception room was new.Thin, tall, about forty, high cheekbones, aquiline nose, dark, stern face.Good morning.she says. Is Mr. Bei there? Which one are you?Her voice dragged on, and a simple question became formal. Ke Baisha. Miss Ke, do you have a business card? Mrs. Ke.Baisha said: I came to see him on business.I didn't make an appointment with him.I've been here a few times before.Leave your remarks to others.Don't worry about it, go to his fake articles, I'm going in! Baisha strode across the reception room, completely ignoring the protests of the tall and serious female secretary. She flung open the private office door. Northford leaned back in his chair, feet on the desk, ankles crossed, a daily newspaper open over his face. Miss He, it's okay, he said: put the letter to be signed on the table, I'll sign it later. He lifted the journal a little from his face. Mrs. Ke slammed the door hard, causing the paintings on the wall to shake. Bei Fude moved the daily newspaper away, had another accident, and was angry again.God!Mrs. Ke!Why don't you ask Miss He to report? Because I can't wait.Bai Sha said: Besides, this young lady is not straightforward.Put your feet down and tell me what you mean you fired Peng Yinmeng. Bei Fude slowly folded the newspaper, put his feet down, and looked at Bai Sha in a daze. She's my employee, isn't she?He asked: Of course I have the right to fire my own employees. Baisha said angrily: You don't have to be so serious.It looks like you've caught the new secretary's infection.Your employee, you can fire her at any time and for any reason, as long as you don't drag me in.She is now suing me for 100,000 yuan, saying that you fired her because I damaged her personality. Mr. Bei leaned forward from the chair and stepped on his feet heavily to stand up.What do you say about her, Mrs. Ke? She sued me and asked me to pay 100,000 yuan in compensation. I do not believe. She did.The court summons was served on me this morning. What exactly did she say? She said I said she was a naughty little girl, that she fell in love with the boss and you said she wrote the letter.And you fired her for these things. why?This much ado about nothing, she knew it wasn't like that. Baisha sat down comfortably, relaxed for the first time since receiving the summons.I have come here chiefly to find out why.She said: I want to ask you, why did you fire her? No personal reason at all.He said: To say the least. Don't go around in circles, Baisha said angrily: Why did you fire her? All right.There's a reason she's so pretty.She is provocative.Not only was she really beautiful, but she knew she was beautiful. What does that matter? Hey, if there is a sister-in-law who pays attention to your actions like Gu Jialu, and a mother-in-law who is suspicious like Gu Taili, it will be very relevant. Did they tell you to fire her? No, no, don't get me wrong.They never give formal advice.Yin Meng is a very good female secretary.A good girl, except that she has, also has certain habits Betha leaned forward, staring deeply into his eyes.Are you doing diplomatic work, or do you want to solve the problem? She said: If you have something to say, let it go. Before Officer Mi came, you had a fight with her. When I sent it yesterday morning, her tears were still dry. .she cried.You told Officer Mi that you were going to fire her before Officer Mi and I came in, didn't you? Not really, not quite. Bai Sha said with restraint, "Okay, listen carefully to me."I know you two have had arguments.If, at that time, you told her that you were going to fire her, or at that time, you told her that you might not be able to keep her working here, then I can prove that her filing a complaint was completely a kind of intimidation.You know, I have to prove that her dismissal has nothing to do with what I said. I assure you that she was fired not because of you. Baisha let out a breath and sat back in her chair.Oh, you can?How cute is it?Do you often fire your secretary for no reason? But, Mrs. Ke.I have a reason, I am explaining! I am listening!Baisha said teasingly: I have been listening to it again and again, and you are also talking again and again.But there is still no explanation.I didn't make sense either. Mrs. Ke, to be honest, I will tell you, there are several reasons.I also have no way of telling you which one is the deciding factor, so I didn't say it directly.However, the woman was too confident in her beauty.So, when anyone steps into my office, the first thing will be strange!You know what I mean. I don't understand!Bai Sha said: Maybe you don’t know anything about it yourself. There is another thing.Mr. Bei said: She is also not very stable. which aspect? She would leak information that she had no right to divulge. That's what makes it interesting.What did she leak? Of course, Mrs. Ke, wait a minute, this is something I don't want to say. Just something I want to know.Baisha said: You have got me into this mess, and it is your responsibility to get me out.What did she leak about you? She is not steady. Bai Sha changed her face.You talk like a marquee.The first time we get to the pinch, we have to start all over again, God, I wish I could ride you like a horse and grab your reins myself.I'm sorry I'm impatient, you said she was not stable, she leaked news, what news!you say! It was she who told my mother-in-law.North said. Baisha's eyes lit up, which made sense. What did she say? She told her that when I found Meibao, I was going to settle Mr. Nan's fine. That's why I was looking for her from heaven to earth. What does it matter? It matters. I can't see it. First, Mrs. Gu knew that I wanted to settle the fine, and she would not agree with May Bao to pay.Second, I have been telling Mrs. Gu how much I care about Mei Bao, and how sad I will be if she runs away.I hope she will send word to Mabel and Mabel will come back by herself.Now, if Mrs. Gu knew that I was looking for Meibao purely for money reasons, how anxious would I be? Why don't you tell your mother-in-law everything I taught you.You should tell her that you don't want Maybel to run away from home.But she really wants to go, there are many women in the world This is of course a very useful trick, but in my special case, it doesn't work.I thought it was a good idea when I first heard it in the office, but when I got home and faced my mother-in-law, I thought it would be more useful to change it. So that's it, please give me advice, just don't apply it, do you? So to speak, yes. Well, let's go back to your secretary.She leaked the news to your mother-in-law, how did you find out? How did I find out, God!That's because my mother-in-law is insane; she kept saying that I was looking for his daughter for money.I came to her to ask her for money, otherwise I wouldn't care. Were these before Leng Sally's body was found? Yes of course. when is it To be correct, this was shortly after I finished working on Wednesday.She kept nagging in my ear after I finished eating.Think about it, will I treat Ms. Peng well? So, when you show up to work on Thursday morning, you're going to be very upset.That was yesterday.You are angry that you did not sleep well all night.You called Peng Yinmeng into the office to give her a good look.Yes or no? It can be said like this. You do know that a police officer is going to visit you this morning, don't you? Yes. It's you who suggested that it's more convenient to talk to you in the office than at home, isn't it? Yes, I don't want my mother-in-law to drag Ms. Xu into the room in a panic. And before we came to you, you still called Peng Yinmeng in and gave him a training? I blamed her. what did you say I said she took the initiative to talk too much about things she shouldn't have said. How did she react? She said she was just greeting my mother-in-law for me.She thought it was to my advantage to say so. how are you? I said that the office wants everything to be up to me. Go on, what happened after that? Then, she said a lot of things that I thought were insignificant, and I was really angry.I told her that I, the boss, was very embarrassed that she was so reckless. What words did you use? I am angry. What words did you use? I said she should have her big mouth sewn up by a cobbler. And after that? Then she cried. Go on, don't ask me every sentence, you just ask one sentence and say one sentence.What happened after that?She cried, you fired her, didn't you? No, I didn't say that.She got up, left the office without saying a word, and sat in front of her typewriter. Still crying? I guess so.At least when she left the office, she was crying. So you got up too and followed her out No, honestly, no. so what are you doing I'll just sit here and wait until you come. Baisha said angrily: Damn it, you kicked her out at that time, and the local people fired her at that time, it's not like she was left with nothing. Even I myself couldn't decide to fire her then.I lost my temper, I have to calm down and think about it, I You're going to fire her when she cools down, aren't you?Just don't tell her when she's excited, lest it make it look bad. I really can't make up my mind.To be honest, Mrs. Ko, I'm at a loss and can't decide what to do. Surely you wouldn't let her continue working for you after these things happened?Baisha asked. I can't be sure, in fact, there is something wrong with myself in this matter. Baisha said loudly: God, do you have to put your head into the water tank before you are willing to take a sip of water? Mrs. Ke, I don't quite understand what you mean. In fact, you only need to say one thing, because of her lack of stability, you were going to fire her.You've made up your mind, the only reason you didn't tell Officer Mi and me before our arrival is that she's crying and you don't want to irritate her too deeply.So you decide that as soon as Officer Mi and I leave you're going to tell her that she doesn't have to work for you anymore.Once you say that, you can prove that her dismissal has nothing to do with what I, Kebesha, said.Do you understand now? Yes, I see your legal point now. As long as you understand, Baisha said: I have been asking you to drink water by yourself, but you are desperately tilting your head on the side, as if the water you drink has balasone.God, you need to figure this out. However, Mrs. Ko.Mr. Bei said: When it comes to the legal point of view, I can't help you! What's the matter with you? To be fair, at that moment, I did not decide to fire Ms. Peng.I decided afterward. Bai Sha sighed: Alright!But at least you can't change what you said just now.I'm going to defend myself with what you just told me. No, Mrs. Ke, no! Why? Absolutely not, once I testify, people will ask me why I scolded her. If the question is for her to tell my mother-in-law something, I am dissatisfied with her, can I still live?Will my mother-in-law forgive me?Mrs. Gu has been accusing me of being dishonest to her.Mrs. Ke, I can't help you.What I just said is just a private exchange of opinions, not public. If someone asks me in court, I will deny it. Ke Baisha stood up, grunting angrily. idiot!she said, walking out of the office.
