This case of jewelry fraud was not complicated. After recording a confession to the owner and clerk of the jewelry store, and taking a copy of the store's surveillance video back as evidence of the crime, Yuan Xudong and Jiang Zhentai prepared to return to the Central District Prosecutor's Office.
As for how to catch those three scammers who are not very clever in their methods, and whether they can recover the jewelry that the jewelry store owner was deceived from, that is a matter for the police.
Yuan Xudong is only responsible for the general direction of handling the case. The specific actual actions will depend on the Jiangnan District Police Station in charge of the case. In his opinion, with the current surveillance network so developed, it is only a matter of time before the scammers whose appearance has been exposed are caught.
This is also the fundamental reason why he thinks that these three scammers are not very clever. It is much easier to detect jewelry fraud cases like this than ordinary phone fraud cases.
Returning to the lobby on the first floor of the Central District Prosecutor's Office, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but stopped. Jiang Zhentai stopped next to him, followed his gaze and looked at the press conference not far away and said:
"Prosecutor, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, you go back first, I'm going to meet an acquaintance!"
"Okay, then I'll go back first!"
"Well, you are responsible for following up on this case of jewelry being defrauded. If you catch the person, just let me know!"
"Okay, prosecutor!"
After Jiang Zhentai left, Yuan Xudong walked to the press conference not far away. Han Qiangzhu and Hong Zhengzhu stood on the stage. The person in charge of the presentation was a younger prosecutor. Under the stage were reporters from various TV stations and newspapers, and some
The reporters from the new media were crowded with people, their flashlights were flashing non-stop, and they were all targeting the prosecutor who was speaking. The prosecutor was holding a ledger in his hand and said loudly and forcefully:
"Police Chief Kim Tae-gyun received a total of 1.2 billion won from Jang Doo-chil in five installments. This account book is evidence of his bribery!"
"Prosecutor Park, is the account book you are holding the same as the bribery account book of Jang Doo-chil that has been circulated recently?"
A female reporter in the audience raised her hand and asked.
"Yes, we will continue to investigate other people involved based on this account book."
"Can you please announce who has accepted bribes?"
Another female reporter raised her hand and asked.
"Sorry, we still need to continue to investigate exactly who has accepted bribes. We cannot make this list public until a thorough investigation is completed!"
"Is he still alive?"
A male reporter in the audience raised his hand and asked:
"I mean Zhang Douqi. Eight years ago, he organized a pyramid scheme company to defraud more than 30,000 people out of a total of 4 trillion won, which eventually led to 22 people jumping off the building to commit suicide. You are the prosecutor in charge of him, aren't you?"
After looking at the male reporter, the prosecutor who spoke smiled and said:
"Didn't the police release information about his death a few years ago?"
"Then why are there always rumors that he is still alive? There are also four trillion won that were defrauded. If Jang Doo-chi is dead, where has this huge sum of money gone?"
When the male reporter asked this question, the prosecutor on the stage avoided answering directly and said with a smile:
"It would be great if the rumors are true. I can catch him, find out where the money is hidden, and then return it to the more than 30,000 citizens who were defrauded!"
"Prosecutor Park, some people say that Zhang Douqi died of murder and was silenced by the real mastermind. He was just a pyramid scheme leader on the surface. There was a big shot hidden behind that financial pyramid scheme case. This time
Police Chief Kim Tae-gyun was revealed to have accepted bribes from Jang Doo-chi. Is there anyone higher up behind him? Besides the police, is there anyone from the prosecution suspected of accepting bribes?”
A new media reporter in the audience raised his hand to ask a question and said fiercely:
“A person who graduated from high school opened a handbag company, and it blossomed everywhere in just one year, opening branches all over the country to illegally raise funds. How could such a handbag company develop without the support of a big shot?
A police chief accepted a bribe of 1.2 billion won. How many police chiefs like this can be bribed with 4 trillion won? Do we have enough police chiefs in the Republic of Korea?"
After glancing at the fierce new media reporters, the prosecutor speaking on the stage said in a calm voice:
"I can't answer such a question. Well, today's press conference ends here. Please pay attention to the official website of the Central District Prosecutor's Office for subsequent developments."
After the press conference ended, many reporters began to disperse. Yuan Xudong walked towards the prosecutor who spoke, as well as prosecutors Han Qiangzhu and Hong Zhengzhu, and said hello:
"Minister, Prosecutor Hong, Senior Park!"
"Xudong!"
Hearing Yuan Xudong's voice, the prosecutor who spoke before patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"How are you doing lately? Can you still adapt to work?"
"It's okay, thank you, Senior Park, for your cultivation!"
Yuan Xudong smiled and said, it turns out that the prosecutor who spoke was named Park Hee-soo. He is a senior prosecutor of the Second Criminal Department and Yuan Xudong’s mentoring prosecutor and senior. I heard that the prosecutor is likely to be transferred to the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office to serve as the chief prosecutor.
, like Han Qiangzhi, they are prosecutors with support behind them. They can rise to the top with just a few credits, and then they can have greater power and more resources to establish their own prosecutors in the Grand Prosecutor's Office and the local prosecutors' offices at all levels below.
Your own network of people.
In the eyes of others, Yuan Xudong is one of his cronies, and he is relatively close to him. After all, Park Hee-soo is not only Yuan Xudong's senior alumnus, but also the guiding prosecutor who introduced him, or it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a teacher.
For example, Yuan Xudong is now Song Enxi's mentor. He has a closer relationship than ordinary colleagues and is a natural ally.
After chatting for a while and agreeing to have time to drink together, Park Hee-soo, Han Qiangzhu and Hong Zhengshu said goodbye and left. Yuan Xudong also began to return to the Criminal Division 2. According to Song Eunxi's stubborn temper, if Yuan Xudong did not go back to help handle some cases, she would definitely choose to stay up late
Working overtime and finishing all the cases on hand before going home to sleep, Yuan Xudong didn't want to leave the impression that he didn't care about women and was trying his best to squeeze the interns.
When Yuan Xudong returned to his independent office and handled the case with Song Eun-hee, Park Hee-soo, Han Qiang-seok and Hong Jung-soo came to the Grand Prosecutor's Office and the office of Prosecutor General Lee Jung-suk.
"Come and sit, everyone!"
After greeting Park Hee-soo, Han Qiang-sik and Hong Jung-soo to sit down in the rest area, Lee Jung-suk took the lead and said:
"Public opinion has been blocked by Police Chief Kim Tae-kyun, but there can't be any more rumors about the ledger. There are no cards to use now, right?"
"It will calm down!"
Park Hee-soo lit a cigarette for himself and puffed away. Next to him sat Han Qiang-suk and Hong Jung-soo. Prosecutor General Lee Jung-suk sat opposite the three people. Compared with the expressionless Lee Jung-suk, the well-behaved Han Qiang-suk and Hong Jung-soo, Park Hee-soo
He has the lowest position, but his attitude is the most arrogant.
"Yeah?"
Looking at Park Hee-soo in the smoke, Li Zhenshuo's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but he asked calmly:
"Have you found the source of the rumor?"
"It came from Li Jiangshi, Zhang Douqi's accountant."
"Isn't he holding a real account book?"
"Don't worry, it's just a small fish. Where is the account book?"
"Then arrest him and deal with him before he becomes more free. By the way, let's see if he really has a ledger!"
After glancing at Prosecutor General Lee Jung-suk, Park Hee-soo put out the cigarette in his hand and said in an impatient tone:
"Eight years have passed. How long will I be able to wipe my butt? Everyone was involved in what happened back then. Now you are all the chief prosecutors of the Central District Prosecutors' Office, ministerial prosecutors, and prosecutors of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office.
Attorney General, I am the only one responsible for wiping my butt, and I am still just an ordinary senior prosecutor. Is this really fair?"
Hearing Park Hee-soo's complaint, Lee Jung-suk smiled and said:
"If Zhang Douqi's case becomes more lively, you, the prosecutor in charge, will be the most troublesome, won't you?"
After that, before Park Hee-soo could speak, Lee Jung-suk took the initiative to comfort him and said:
"Wait for a while, after Zhang Douqi's case is completely concluded, as long as I become a member of the parliament, it will not be a problem if you want to be the Prosecutor General. Of course, you have to do it step by step, and it is impossible for you to become the Prosecutor General all at once. Then
Unrealistic!"
After looking at Li Zhenshuo, Park Hee-soo lit another cigarette for himself, puffed out the smoke and said:
"Ask me to wait and I'll just wait. You've been waiting for eight years, haven't you?"
Seeing Park Hee-soo and Lee Jung-suk choking, Han Qiangzhu coughed twice, cleared his throat and smiled:
"Chief, Prosecutor Park, let's talk about Jang Doo-chi's case. Is he really not dead?"
"Not dead, at least not eight years ago!"
Park Hee-soo glanced at Han Qiangshu and continued:
"He is a smart man. He knows how to spend money to buy safety. Four trillion won. He left 300 billion for himself. The rest was money to buy his life. Someone from above sent a message to save his life. His false identity when he went to China was still
I asked someone to do it, but after arriving in China, he disappeared. He may be dead, or he may be hiding, who knows?"
Hearing what Park Hee-soo said, Hong Jung-soo on the side said:
"He should not have been allowed to leave South Korea eight years ago. If he had died, there wouldn't be so many things happening now!"
"madness!"
Glancing at Hong Jung-soo, Park Hee-soo said mockingly:
"Do you think what is happening now is all caused by Zhang Douqi? What's the benefit of doing this to him? Besides, the people above asked me to let him go, why should I do a thankless thing?"
"you"
Hearing Park Hee-soo scolding himself for being stupid, Hong Jung-soo was about to choke, but unfortunately Park Hee-soo didn't take him seriously at all, and stood up and left directly:
"You guys chat, I'll deal with Li Jiangshi!"
Having said that, before Li Zhenshuo and others could speak, Park Hee-soo left on his own and began to go to his secret base. After he left the office, Hong Zhengshu looked at Han Qiangshuo and Li Zhenshuo and said angrily:
"Chief, Minister, this Park Hee-soo is really too much. He is simply lawless and arrogant. He doesn't care about anyone at all. What's so arrogant about him?"
Before Li Zhenshuo could speak, Han Qiangzhu glanced at Hong Zhengshu and said:
"He has a list of officials that Zhang Douqi bribed. Otherwise, do you think he would let Zhang Douqi go so easily?"
After Han Qiangzhi finished speaking, Li Zhenshuo sighed and said:
"Forget it, we are all in the same boat. Although Park Hee-soo's attitude is a bit arrogant, he is still very capable. With that list, it will do more good than harm to our prosecution. At least it can suppress the police. They
Don’t you want us to have the power to handle cases independently? Even the police chief is corrupt and bribery, so I don’t think they have the nerve to argue with us?”
Seeing that neither Han Qiangzhu nor Li Zhenshuo had the intention to cause trouble for Park Hee-soo, and the list in Park Hee-soo's hand, Hong Zhengshu gave up his thoughts. Park Hee-soo did not take himself as the chief prosecutor seriously, and even his
His apprentice Yuan Xudong dared to steal women from him. The most important thing was that with Han Qiangzhi here, he couldn't blatantly cause trouble for Park Hee-soo and Yuan Xudong. It was really depressing to think about it. He, the chief prosecutor, was too much of a coward.
, you can only act based on Han Qiangzhi’s face. No wonder Park Hee-soo and Yuan Xudong both look down on themselves and dare to confront themselves tit for tat.
In Park Hee-soo's secret base, Gao Xidong, Chief Kim, and Chunzi looked at Park Hee-soo and said respectfully:
"Prosecutor Park, you are here!"
After taking a look at Gao Xidong and the other three, especially the young and beautiful Chunzi, Park Hee-soo smoked a cigarette and looked at the diamond necklace Chunzi wore around her neck and asked:
"This necklace I haven't seen before, where did it come from?"
Hearing Park Hee-soo ask about the origin of the diamond necklace, Chunzi squeaked, and Gao Xidong on the side quickly answered for her:
"Because it's Chunzi's birthday, we held a small event, so"
"Didn't I say that?"
Before Gao Xidong could finish speaking, Park Hee-soo interrupted him directly:
"Don't show off small things!"
"I'm sorry, Prosecutor Park!"
"Forget it, I won't do it next time!"
Knowing that Gao Xidong and the other three were not good people, and that Park Hee-soo only used them to do things for him, he didn't bother to care about what they did. As long as it didn't delay what he had told him, he asked directly:
"Where's Li Jiangshi, have you found it?"
"We have found it a long time ago. The surveillance and trackers have been installed. Do you want to take a look?"
Chief Kim on the side said, among the trio, Gao Xidong is tall and strong, good at martial arts and driving cars; Chunzi is young and beautiful, with a graceful figure, good at seducing all kinds of men and taking the opportunity to steal their money; Chief Kim
He has a smart mind and is especially good at computer-based electronic products. He can hack into South Korea's transportation network and use ubiquitous cameras to find specific targets and track them in real time. Of course, as a liar, he also has the ability to use his hands and feet, and his ability level ranks second
Under Chunzi, above Gao Xidong.
"Let's go and have a look!"
"Okay, this way!"
Park Hee-soo followed Chief Kim and others into a secret room. There were three huge desks filled with various documents, as well as scattered photos and newspaper clippings. Two somewhat old sofas
, Park Hee-soo and Gao Xidong sat on one table each. Chunzi sat leaning on the edge of the desk, with his hands behind his back, his two long legs stretched straight forward, his head tilted slightly to look at the huge screen in front of him.
It displays the personal information and whereabouts of the target person Li Jiangshi, as well as some video and photo information. While fiddling with his tracking equipment and computer, Director Jin pops up and enlarges various information on the huge screen.
At the same time, he began to explain:
"Li Jiangshi was implicated in the Zhang Douqi case and spent three years in prison. After he was released from prison, he did foreign currency exchange, ghost stocks, anything that made money, phone fraud, virtual currency, and simulated trading.
stocks, etc., and recently a fool was caught planning a real estate scam.”
Hearing what Chief Kim said, Gao Xidong, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at Park Hee-soo and smiled:
"Prosecutor Park, this guy is so evil, why are you looking for him?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I just need to catch him!"
Hearing what Park Hee-soo said, Chunzi, who was leaning on the edge of the desk, looked at him and said in confusion:
"Isn't it okay to use the official channel?"
Without answering Chunzi's question, Park Hee-soo directly ordered:
"When I take the police to arrest him, you go to his house to see if there are any hidden ledgers or anything like that!"
