"Huang Wenbin left the port by boat last night. Isn't he prohibited from leaving the port? Why didn't the customs stop him?"
At the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Lu Zhilian, who had been busy all night, received bad news before he could take a breath.
"He is a senior member of the Hong Kong Island Police Force. It is not difficult to obtain several documents that can be fake and authentic."
An ICAC investigator nearby was not surprised that Huang Wenbin was able to leave Hong Kong in an upright manner.
After all, the other party is a police superintendent. Not to mention that the ICAC currently does not have enough evidence to prove that Huang Wenbin committed a crime. Even if there is evidence, the police force may not agree to the ICAC's investigation of Huang Wenbin.
Now that Huang Wenbin has left Hong Kong after the investigation is over and before he is exposed, it may be the result of the promotion of some people from the Hong Kong Island Police Force.
After all, if Huang Wenbin leaves now, since the Independent Commission Against Corruption has not found any evidence, it is naturally impossible to accuse him of corruption.
Huang Wenbin's departure first saved the face of the top management of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, and secondly, it also vacated a position, giving others the opportunity to rise to the top.
"What should we do now? Once Huang Wenbin leaves, the clues will be lost again."
The reason why the ICAC investigators said so was naturally because in addition to Huang Wenbin, they also learned another news, that is, the real-name whistleblower Huang Wenbin and Chen Yongcai, the whistleblower of Yonghua Accounting Firm, died yesterday.
"No, the clues are not closed yet, because we still have a witness."
Unlike the investigator's pessimistic mood, Lu Zhilian couldn't help but become excited at this moment.
Because although they have not investigated any substantive evidence so far, he firmly believes that he is on the right path and has definitely come into contact with the enemy's key nodes.
Otherwise, how could Huang Wenbin, as a superintendent-level executive, give up everything and leave Hong Kong?
Not to mention that the other party also chose to kill people and silence them.
"I heard that the death of Chen Yongcai was announced by the Central Police Station. Go to Wan Chai Police Station and deliver a message saying that we have evidence of Chen Yongcai's death."
Lu Zhilian was able to become the chief investigator of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, so he certainly has real talent and practical knowledge.
The ICAC does not have the power to investigate death cases, but there are too many doubts about Chen Yongcai's death.
So he thought of a way to drive away the wolf and the tiger, and wanted to use the power of the Wan Chai Police Station to investigate this crime.
"Where do we get the evidence?"
Hearing Lu Zhilian's words, the investigator next to him was full of doubts.
They have been investigating Huang Wenbin's situation for the past two days. They learned about Chen Yongcai's death from TV news.
"You just need to deliver the message, and I will handle the rest."
Lu Zhilian did not explain his subordinates' doubts, but stood up and walked outside.
"Let's go, we have to go see the last witness quickly, lest there really be no witnesses by then."
...
Our Lady of Mary Hospital.
As you can tell from the name, this is a foreign-funded private hospital.
The hospital was formerly a church hospital. Later, it was taken over by other capital and began to shift to high-end private medical care.
The hospital is equipped with the best nursing team in Asia, as well as the world's top medical equipment and the latest pharmaceutical resources.
Moreover, the hospital cooperates with top medical institutions in Asia and even Europe and the United States. As long as there is a need and can afford the money, experts can be directly invited to fly to the hospital for consultation.
In particular, their nursing team is top not only in Asia, but also in the world. As long as the customer has money, a patient is often cared for by an entire nursing team 24 hours a day.
Luo Luo Yong now pushed his wife, who was living in the hospital, and walked in the garden to bask in the sun.
His wife's expression was dull and she had obviously lost the ability to take care of herself.
"Hey, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been too greedy and agreed to launder money, things wouldn't have turned out like this."
"Brother Cai and I have been working together for decades. We built Yonghua from scratch to its current scale. I really never thought that one day I would kill him."
Luo Luo Yong was a lawyer at Yonghua Law Firm, and he also cooperated with Z Fund to help the other party make false accounts and launder money.
As he walked, he couldn't help but sigh.
Luo Luo Yong does not hate Chen Yongcai. The two have been partners for decades and have gradually grown from unknown people to become a pivotal presence in the accounting community of Hong Kong Island.
It stands to reason that when they reach their status, they should have already achieved financial freedom, and they should not value money so much, but should pay more attention to reputation.
Originally, Luo Luo Yong did think so and did so.
But things are fickle. His wife suddenly fell ill a few years ago. Luo Luo Yong and his wife had a good relationship, so naturally they were unwilling to give up on each other.
After several years of medical expenses, Luo Yong's savings were completely wiped out.
Seeing that there was no other way, he happened to catch up with Hu Zhiyong from Z Fund.
As one of the top accounting firms in Hong Kong, Yonghua Accounting Firm, Z Fund naturally needs to rely on the credibility of the other party in its initial stage.
And Luo Yong helped Z Fund endorse and received a lot of reward, and even had enough money to send his wife to St. Mary's Hospital for treatment.
It's just that he forgot his old partner Chen Yongcai for many years, and what he always hated the most was people who falsified accounts.
After learning that he helped Z Fund make false accounts, Chen Yongcai angrily chose to resign.
Afterwards, he was reported directly.
But Chen Yongcai obviously underestimated the power of Z Fund, so he paid the price with his life.
"No, I have to ask them for a sum of money, and then it is best to leave Hong Kong Island and go to other places for treatment. The water in this matter is too deep."
Luo Luo Yong has been an accountant for so many years. Not only did he not get into Stanley, but he became a senior figure in the accounting field in Hong Kong. He is certainly not a stupid person.
After learning about his old friend, he knew that he could no longer stay on Hong Kong Island.
As one of the insiders of Z Fund, the person who is dead now is his buddy Chen Yongcai. If the other party thinks that he is also a threat or risk, he may have an accident one day.
So Luo Luo Yong made a decision and wanted to take the opportunity to ask for a sum of money, and then follow Huang Wenbin's example and leave Hong Kong Island never to come back again.
After making the decision, Luo Zhiyong had no idea of continuing to go shopping. He pushed his wheelchair and prepared to send his wife back to rest, and then went to negotiate with Hu Zhiyong himself.
At this moment, a group of men and women in suits and leather shoes walked through the garden corridor of the hospital.
The leader had dark skin and a resolute expression. Luo Yong knew him.
"Accountant Luo, I am Lu Zhilian, the chief investigator of ICAC. I believe you already know what I am looking for you about. Is it convenient for us to chat?"
Since Lu Zhilian already knows about Huang Wenbin and Chen Yongcai, it is naturally impossible for him to not know about Luo Yong, who was reported by Chen Yongcai and investigated by Huang Wenbin.
As Huang Wenbin left Hong Kong and Chen Yongcai committed suicide, Lu Zhilian had no choice but to try his luck with Luo Yong.
"Why is the Independent Commission Against Corruption looking for me? My accounting firm has been certified by the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau as having no problems."
Seeing Lu Zhilian, Luo Zhilian's expression suddenly changed. He turned around and pushed the cart towards the ward, obviously not wanting to say anything more to him.
"Mr. Luo, I heard that you were a college classmate of Mr. Chen. They have known each other for more than fifty years. Now that he is dead, don't you have anything to say?"
Lu Zhilian was not surprised by Luo Zhilian's lack of cooperation. After all, since the other party had been reported, it meant that he was not clean either.
If he is really investigated, Hu Zhiyong's chances of escaping may be much greater than his.
Lu Zhilian came to Luo Zhilian now because he was desperate and wanted to come here to see if he could find any other clues.
At this moment, he really discovered something that he had not noticed before.
He didn't know much about St. Mary's Hospital before, but after entering, he discovered that this hospital was unique. The leisure gardens were better maintained than ordinary parks, and most of the wards were suites.
Even when he walked in and said he was here for a checkup, he went out of his way to find connections to get in.
All these factors indicate that this hospital is extraordinary.
Lu Zhilian first worked in the Internal Affairs Division of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, and later joined the Independent Commission Against Corruption. His work was to fight corruption, so after seeing all this, he instinctively guessed one thing.
That means the medical expenses in this hospital will definitely be astronomical.
After all, for ordinary hospitals, life-saving is the first priority, and everything else must give way to life-saving.
When a hospital begins to pay attention to service and even the environment, it may be a scam hospital that can only treat some fatal diseases, and then use the high-end environment to defraud patients of their money.
Either the hospital is very powerful and has the confidence to charge high fees based on its technology.
The threshold for admission to Our Lady of Mary Hospital is so high, so the possibility of a scam hospital is very small.
According to the information Lu Zhilian learned, Luo Deyong's wife had not stayed in this hospital for a day or two, but for several years.
As a well-known accountant, Luo Deyong has a considerable income, but the other party's income is still not enough in front of a gold-swallowing behemoth like a hospital.
"Go and find out when the cooperation between Yonghua Accounting Firm and Z Fund started. Then leave two people here and pay attention to whether anyone will come to see Luo Yong. If he wants to go out, also record him.
Who did you meet?"
Lu Zhilian was still thinking that at such an old age, Luo Zhilian would have made enough money, so it was the right time to cherish his reputation.
Now that he saw that the other party had a paralyzed wife, he could probably guess the reason why the other party chose to give false testimony for the Z Fund.
But even though he knew the reason, Lu Zhilian found it even more difficult.
Not to mention that Luo Luo Yong needs money to continue paying for his wife's medical expenses, let's just say that if the other party Luo Yong is really locked up, his wife may not even be able to find someone to take care of her.
Given these difficulties, it was obviously very difficult for them to ask Luo Zhiyong to cooperate and take the initiative to report Hu Zhiyong.
...
Just when Lu Zhilian was having a headache investigating the Z Fund, a black-faced man in a suit walked into the reception hall of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
"Hello, I would like to talk to your ICAC chief investigator Lu Zhilian."
When Luo Minsheng was speaking, he tried to control his emotions and keep his expression normal.
There is no way, if what he is doing now is revealed, I am afraid that he will no longer be able to work in the financial industry in the future.
But he had no other choice. This was the task given to him by his uncle.
When he received this task, he actually didn't make a decision whether to do it or not. He even reported it to Sir Zhang immediately. As a result, Sir Zhang didn't pay attention to his uncle's obvious intention to cause trouble.
Instead, ask him to act according to the other party's instructions.
"I'm sorry, our Sir Lu has already gone out. What can I do for you?"
The receptionist didn't pay attention to Luo Minsheng's slightly out-of-control expression.
People who can come to the ICAC either know that their crimes have been known to the ICAC, so they voluntarily surrender, or they come to report some clues about illegal crimes.
Regardless of the two, it is very common to lose control of your emotions.
"No, then please give this thing to him. Please make sure he opens it in person."
When Luo Minsheng heard that Lu Zhilian was not there, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
If the person is not there, he is just here to deliver something, so that even if he is exposed, he will have an excuse to cover it up.
"Okay, we will definitely hand it over to Sir Lu personally."
The reception staff of the ICAC were obviously very professional, and they were quite enthusiastic towards people like Luo Minsheng who seemed to be here to deliver news.
After handing over his things, Luo Minsheng didn't stop and walked quickly outside.
Now that the things have been handed over, since Sir Zhang said that this matter does not require intervention, then he naturally does not need to continue to interfere.
However, now that the evidence has been given to the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Luo Minsheng knows very well that if nothing unexpected happens, the chance of Fund Z's listing is already very slim.
If Z Fund cannot be listed as scheduled, the stock prices of several listed companies related to Z Fund will obviously be artificially high due to the upcoming listing of Z Fund.
Luo Minsheng himself now runs an investment company with the support of his uncle.
Now that there is clear inside information, if he doesn't make a short position and take advantage of the opportunity to make a huge sum of money, he would be sorry for the risk he took.
"Sir Zhang, now is a great time to go short. I need some financial support."
Luo Minsheng actually knew very well that the reason why he was favored by his uncle was not because he was born with financial acumen and seized the opportunity of Fenghua International to manipulate stock insider information and took advantage of it.
Although he did the trading that time himself, the person who knew that Fenghua International's stock would expand significantly at that time was not him, but Sir Zhang who came to him to place the order.
Later, it was proved that Sir Zhang’s vision was really great, and the money invested by the other party increased nearly ten times in just one day.
At that time, Luo Minsheng himself was attracted by Sir Zhang and planned to take care of the bookstore for him.
As a result, before Luo Minsheng had time to complete the resignation procedures, his uncle came to visit him and said that he would take him to make a fortune together.
