Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Located in the central northeast of the United States, this city straddles the Mississippi River and, together with St. Paul adjacent to the east, is known as the Twin Cities.
From the beginning, the village relied on waterfall water conservancy, and through economic development such as flour and logging, the Mississippi River became its engine.
It gradually developed into a city of today's size.
Minni means "water" in the Indian language, and there are a total of 22 beautiful small lakes in the city. It is also called the "Lake City".
But for foreigners, it is estimated that most people have never heard of this place. Even if they have heard of it, it is because of the name of a black man. After all, this place is not as famous around the world as San Francisco and Los Angeles.
The economy is not bad and the development is not bad. It ranks about forty among the cities in the United States. The lake is beautiful and the environment is good.
All in all, it is a city suitable for recuperation of body and mind, livable and retirement.
I don’t know if I have taken a fancy to this, but Fiseld is one of the two giant pillars in the medical field, a medical device company with the world’s top technology.
Littonme's headquarters is located here.
However, I did not visit the headquarters building as the CEO of the empire, nor did I appreciate the beautiful scenery of this lake city in the city.
North of downtown Minneapolis, it was still pitch black. A luxury car stopped on the side of the road in the afternoon sunshine. Two small black figures emerged from the lowered car window.
Flying towards the large factory whose outline is clearly visible in the distance.
And then exactly thirty minutes later,
Inside the pitch-black elongated luxury car, Fang Ran raised his black eyes and spoke aloud,
"Sure enough, it doesn't work. I can't see any problems when I look at it directly, and I don't find anything suspicious. No matter how you look at it, it's just a normal factory."
He dispersed his dark eyes slightly helplessly. Although he just wanted to give it a try, he failed to directly catch the guy related to Rufus and ask for information.
Fangran was still a little disappointed. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked solemnly at the large medical equipment factory outside the car window.
After the incident in San Francisco, it was completely confirmed that the identity of 'Rufus' was related to the Future Foundation.
After getting rid of the pursuit last night, we cautiously waited until the darkness receded, which would facilitate the activities of the participants.
Fangran and Adeline immediately took a helicopter back to the airport, spent a whole morning flying to Minneapolis, and immediately started investigating the medical equipment factory controlled by Rufus.
Of course, the more important reason why he was so anxious was because...
Tens of billions of dollars.
There is a high probability that participants with the ability to influence people's minds will be sent out, and the association will directly let Aisim Medical Insurance Company conduct such a large-scale fund mobilization.
Ten billion....
Ten billion dollars!
Wealth is so huge that ordinary people can't even imagine its rough concept. They will only think of it as an exaggerated and dreamy amount.
But next to Mingliang's gambling table, before he bet all the chips at once, he would lose all his money in one breath, causing him to choke his breathing, shrink and have various indescribable feelings.
Let Fangran realize in the most brutal way how much money twenty million US dollars is,
Then this time it was 10 billion US dollars.
A leopard can be seen through a tube, and one thing can be seen,
After experiencing the real feeling of 20 million that night in Las Vegas, I can already feel the hugeness of 10 billion.
It's not just a stepping stone, this is also part of her plan...
At this moment, I suddenly felt Veronica's profound intention of 'threatening' herself to go to the casino when she first arrived in North America.
Fangran looked at a production report about biotechnology medical care equipment in front of him, and once again felt the breathless feeling at the gambling table.
It’s just that this time, what may be ‘lost’ is 10 billion US dollars.
"It seems that we still need to trace funds, transaction logistics and other information to find the location of the factory owned by the medical company related to Rufus Russell."
Listening to Fangran's words, sitting opposite him in an elegant black suit, Adeline spoke calmly and was not surprised by the result,
Knowing what she meant, Fangran let out a long breath.
factory....
In the name of using their abilities to influence Essem Corporation to mobilize huge amounts of funds, the association invested in another medical device company in North America that was no less than Littonma and was secretly inextricably linked to the Future Consortium.
There was no doubt that that company was the one Rufus Russell had been trading with.
The medical equipment he had been secretly trading before proved that the 10 billion funds this time are expected to flow to a certain factory under the name of that company.
After the investment contract has been signed and has actual legal effect, the transfer process has begun.
However, it is not that simple to dispatch funds of this size. The bank's review and other procedures will take some time.
And if you want to stop all this and recover this investment of 10 billion US dollars,
It was during this period that a certain factory under the name of the medical company of the Future Consortium was found.
As long as we can find the "illegalities" hidden in that factory, we can break the contract with the thirteen detailed clauses in the contract such as "concealing major business issues from the employer".
Use practical means to force the bank to interrupt the transfer process and recover the funds.
And if it doesn't stop...
The tens of billions of dollars that will definitely be lost due to unknown 'natural disasters' will inevitably lead to a crisis in the capital chain of Aisim Medical Insurance Company, making it difficult to pay doctors and hospitals as promised.
And once this situation affects Fiseld's entire medical field industry,
As the stock price drops by a percentage point, I'm afraid it's not just a loss of 10 billion US dollars...
The most urgent task is to find the factory as soon as possible!
His eyes were not relaxed. After listening to Adeline's words, Fangran raised his head and asked her:
"Have you found out from those channels where the medical company's factory is?"
"I'm sorry, we tried to track the logistics of the latest batch of biotechnology healing devices, but there are no clues. It is obvious that the other party used the space device of a scientist to secretly transport it,"
Always able to answer all of Fangran's questions immediately, Adeline also had a reliable answer that she had already arranged this time:
"But searching the area around that company, I've had people go and sift through all the possible options."
"Have the screening results come out?"
"It should be halfway through."
After hearing this answer, Fangran made a decision without any hesitation, and spoke softly with a decisive look:
"Then let's confirm that half first. Let's go, let's go to the headquarters of Litonmax now."
After I spoke, I suddenly felt an incredible state. It was clear that I had just experienced a dangerous situation like being chased and attacked in San Francisco last night.
But now I am busy with things I have never thought of in a city I have never heard of. Not to mention resting to calm down my fright, I don’t even have time to think about it.
It seems like last night passed easily and easily...
Without any hesitation, the driver started the vehicle and carried out his decision. The long, dark luxury car turned around in the suburbs and drove towards the city at high speed.
Then in less than an hour,
Downtown Minneapolis, Litton Medical Devices Company Headquarters Building,
In the tense atmosphere where they suddenly started preparing for the meeting after receiving the contact from the front desk, all Litonmi executives above the department heads were waiting to welcome the two top officials in the empire!
Unexpectedly, when I stood up to greet that moment in the conference room, the first thing that struck me was not the rumored executive with extraordinary skills and cold appearance.
Instead, he looked at the figure of the black-haired young man who was about to walk in with dignity. His calm and quick steps were filled with resoluteness, and his overly young appearance seemed to retain the fierce determination after what he had just experienced!
This is Empire's new CEO!
This was a startling thought in almost everyone's mind. The top person in charge of Litonmei took a deep breath and was about to introduce himself.
"Hello, Mr. Executive Officer, I am..."
But interrupt it directly,
"You don't need to introduce yourselves to me, and I don't need to know each of your names. I just need you to tell me,"
The vaguely mechanical and harsh words sounded. At this moment, everyone only saw the sharp eyes of the figure, and he asked directly without any sloppiness in his voice:
"Each of you are employees who abide by your responsibilities and will not harm Fiseld's interests, right?"
The first time he walked into the conference room with great aura, he was asked like a slap in the face before he even sat down.
After listening to everyone's answers, and unwilling to waste useless time, Fangran directly pointed out the deputy-like figures of the two senior executives again, leaving no room for mercy and cold and decisive orders!
"He, he, suspended both of them and investigated any behavior that harmed the company's interests."
Then, after the entire conference room once again fell into the same atmosphere as the Cosi Group at that time, he sat down directly across the conference table.
He looked calm and looked directly at everyone in front of him.
"Give me progress results on factory location screening."
The meeting, which lasted only half an hour, ended with half of the possible results screened out.
Fangran and Adeline drove directly away from Litonmax's headquarters.
Then the rest of the afternoon passed on the way to various factory locations, until night fell and the black sky enveloped the unlit countryside outside the city.
In the darkness and distance, only the factories located outside the city were shining with solitary points of light.
And in this vast darkness of night,
The dark and tall figure, the black armor exudes the beauty of technology, with a mechanically perfect one-sided wing spread out behind his back, Fangran opened his black eyes in the dark night,
After approaching the dim light of the factory, Yuye Xingchen's detection method and Heiki Mullin's Crow Feather were released together!
"Not here, next one."
After not noticing anything unusual, he pressed the communication opening next to his ear with a calm voice, and then after hearing a cold voice reply,
The mechanical wings behind him extended and spread out, spitting out faint blue flames, and the figure rushed directly to the next possible location in the night sky.
"Not here, next one."
...
"Not this, the next one."
...
"No, next one."
...
"Next."
...
Like an unnoticed stream of light in the dark night, the possible locations screened out on the map were extinguished one by one.
And then finally!
At the moment when the night was more than half gone, the body was approaching the next destination, and Ir hadn't even started the detection device yet.
Fangran stopped suddenly, and looked into the distance with his black eyes in surprise, looking at the area where the research institute and the factory were located by a lake, and sensed the presence of more than one participant there.
And it smells like the elites on the coast!
At the moment when he finally found his target, Fangran let out a slow breath in the night sky, pressed the button of the communication device next to his ear with his dark gauntlet, breathed out softly, and then spoke as if he was preparing for war:
Chapter completed!
