Sure enough, just when everyone was surprised that Shinhwa Jewelry had sufficient gold supplies, there was a commotion outside.
"Sorry, we are the Independent Commission Against Corruption!"
"The Independent Commission Against Corruption is doing its work. Please take the initiative to cooperate!"
Following the shouting, a team of people in suits and leather shoes broke in from outside, and the person leading it was none other than Jiang Shijie, the hard-faced investigator who originally interrogated Lei Luo.
"Friend, if you have anything to do, we can wait until the end of our celebration!" Hu Juncai immediately stepped forward to stop him, "Today is the opening ceremony of our jewelry company, please give me some face!"
According to Hu Juncai's current status, being able to say such a thing is considered very polite. Anyone would have to think carefully and give enough face.
But the Jiang Shijie in front of him was the famous "Stupid Youth" of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and Bailiqu's favorite sword. He smiled slightly at Hu Juncai and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Hu, I really want to
To give you face, but the matter is very important. Someone reported that the source of your gold is unknown and is suspected of being related to underground bribery transactions, so all the exhibits are temporarily detained until we find out the truth!"
"What? Are you going to seize the goods here?" Hu Juncai was stunned.
Others also asked: "How can we open a store if our things are confiscated?"
“The ICAC people are so ruthless!”
Zheng Yutong looked at everything in front of him and quickly looked at Liu Jianxiong to ask.
Liu Jianxiong looked proud and returned the look.
Zheng Yutong was sure that this was all Liu Jianxiong's fault. He must have anonymously reported to Shi Zhijian that there was something wrong with the gold here, which led to the ICAC people coming to kill him.
Can such a despicable trick really bring down Shi Zhijian? Zheng Yutong expressed doubts.
Sure enough, while Liu Jianxiong and others were waiting to see the joke, Shi Zhijian pushed aside everyone and walked out.
Seeing Shi Zhijian's appearance, those from the Independent Commission Against Corruption did not dare to be presumptuous. After all, Shi Zhijian was the "Father of the Independent Commission Against Corruption" and it was Shi Zhijian who built their department.
"Ahem, Congressman Shi, you are here too!" That Jiang Shijie pretended to have just seen Shi Zhijian.
The other members of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, who looked arrogant and domineering just now, now all behaved honestly in front of Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian looked at Jiang Shijie without saying anything, just staring at him coldly.
Even so, Jiang Shijie felt that the other person's eyes were like two knives that were chopping him up Lingchi.
After a moment, Shi Zhijian looked away, and Jiang Shijie felt that the pressure disappeared. He seemed to be alive again. He took a deep breath and felt that his back was already soaked.
"Are you going to investigate the source of this batch of gold? Are there any procedures?" Shi Zhijian asked calmly.
"Ahem, that's true!" Jiang Shijie hurriedly turned around and asked someone to show the search warrant to Shi Zhijian.
"Congressman Shi, this is the investigation order signed by our Sir Bailiqu personally. Please take a look at it!" Jiang Shijie handed over the search warrant.
Shi Zhijian took it, glanced at it, and then stabbed it in front of everyone, tearing the investigation order in half!
"Wow, what is he doing?"
"Oh my god, he tore up the investigation order!"
Shi Zhijian's move shocked everyone.
Xu Sanshao and others had incredible expressions.
Zheng Yutong was stunned.
Liu Jianxiong's jaw dropped.
As the person involved, Jiang Shijie even took a step back, with shock on his face.
Shi Zhijian tore up the investigation order in his hand and threw it on the ground. He said calmly to Jiang Shijie: "If you want to investigate this place, you can! Let Sir Bailiqu come to see me in person!"
After saying that, Shi Zhijian ignored the ICAC group at all! He turned to the guests and said: "Everyone, continue to enjoy, don't let outsiders disturb your enjoyment!"
In Shi Zhijian's eyes, the Independent Commission Against Corruption was built by him. These people are just like his own son. How can any son in this world investigate his own father?! They have no qualifications and no power!
Sure enough, facing Shi Zhijian's tyranny, Jiang Shijie and others were speechless. As the entire celebration continued, no one even looked at the ICAC people.
Jiang Shijie felt his face was burning, and he was embarrassed to stay here any longer and be embarrassed, so he could only say to Shi Zhijian's back: "Congressman Shi, we will come again!"
Shi Zhijian ignored him and continued talking and laughing with Xu Sanshao and other guests.
Jiang Shijie asked for trouble, so he led his troops to leave.
Seeing Jiang Shijie leaving in despair, Liu Jianxiong sighed: "A bunch of trash!"
Zheng Yutong couldn't stand it anymore, "Please, stop making small moves! Shi Zhijian is not a good man or woman. If you provoke him like this, be careful of him taking revenge on you!"
"Retaliate against me?" Liu Jianxiong looked disdainful, "Are you afraid that I will harm you?"
"It's good that you know!" Zheng Yutong didn't hide it, "Your tricks can only win for a while, but it's hard to win for a lifetime! Be careful in the future, I don't want to become a real enemy with Shi Zhijian because of you!" After finishing speaking,
, and left without looking at Liu Jianxiong again.
Seeing this, Liu Jianxiong showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth and said behind his back: "What do you mean by not becoming a real enemy with Shi Zhijian? Since we are on the battlefield, it is either life or death. How can there be an in-between? You old-school businessmen really think that thieves are also capable.
Say? Dream on, for me, as long as I do it, I will never stop!" At this point, Liu Jianxiong reached out to take the cocktail from the waiter's tray, tilted his neck, and drank it all in one gulp!
…
"Is Shi Zhijian really so arrogant?"
In the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Sir Bailiqu leaned on his cane and looked at Jiang Shijie and others proudly.
"Yes, he even tore up the warrant issued by your old man personally in front of everyone!" Jiang Shijie replied accurately.
Bailiqu was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Shijie and others thought he was going to get angry, so they all trembled and did not dare to look at Bailiqu.
Unexpectedly, Bailiqu burst out laughing, "Interesting! It's really interesting! I didn't expect that Shi Zhijian would lose such a temper! Hasn't he always been calm and composed? Aren't he as stable as a mountain in everything he encounters? Now he has it.
I lost my temper, hahaha!"
Jiang Shijie and others didn't know why, so they looked at each other and then looked at Bailiqu who was laughing.
But Bailiqu was very happy because he had fought against Shi Zhijian many times and was unable to do anything against Shi Zhijian every time.
Shi Zhijian gave him the feeling that he was invulnerable to fire and water! Now he actually knew how to lose his temper and tear up his warrant. It only hurt him if it stabbed him in the flesh.
"This anonymous reporting letter is great! It's such a slap in the face! It makes Shi Zhijian a little unable to hold on! Have you found out who is this reporting person?" Bailiqu glanced at everyone.
"We have investigated and the biggest suspect is...Liu Jianxiong!" Jiang Shijie hesitated and said, "He has been very happy recently, especially when he helped Zheng Yutong make suggestions..."
"Liu Jianxiong? Haha, this is quite a talent!" Bailiqu said something. "It's just that these anonymous reports of his are a bit trivial, and they can't help but break the bones - such as this golden report, Shi Zhijian's
Is there a problem with the source of the gold? He didn't even think about it. Since Shi Zhijian dared to put these things on the shelves for display and sale, he was confident..."
While they were talking, someone knocked on the door with information and reported: "Sir Sir, the results of the investigation you asked us to investigate have come out. The gold in Shinhwa Jewelry Company was exchanged by Wu Shihao from the pawn shop through legal means! It is not stolen goods!"
After saying that, the man walked up to Bailiqu and handed the information to Bailiqu.
Bailiqu took it and glanced at it for a few times, then held it up in his hand and said to Jiang Shijie and others: "See? You should use your brain more when encountering something, don't be impulsive! Who is Shi Zhijian? He built the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
Great hero! He is a member of the Legislative Council! The third-ranking Earl of the British Empire! When you touch him, think more about it. What will be the consequences if you fail to succeed?"
Everyone was silenced by Bailiqu's words.
Only Jiang Shijie frowned and said: "Sir! To be honest, I didn't think so much! Although Shi Zhijian is the father of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, the reason why we can work here is thanks to him! But the country has national laws, and every family has its own rules.
, the prince committed the same crime as the common people! No matter how great he is, Shi Zhijian, he is still a Hong Kong citizen. Since he is a Hong Kong citizen, he has the obligation to accept the investigation of our Independent Commission Against Corruption!"
Bailiqu didn't expect Jiang Shijie to be so bold. He grabbed the civilized staff and walked slowly to Jiang Shijie.
Jiang Shijie felt extremely stressed, and the aura radiating from Sir Bailiqu made him breathless.
Everyone standing together with Jiang Shijie couldn't help but take a step back to relieve the pressure in front of them.
Only Jiang Shijie still endured it.
"Look at me!" Bailiqu said slowly. "Look up at me and say what you just said again!"
Jiang Shijie took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at Bailiqu with stern eyes: "I say that princes who break the law are as guilty as the common people! Even if Shi Zhijian is a councilor or an earl, as long as he breaks the law, he is obliged to be investigated by our Independent Commission Against Corruption!"
Silence!
The atmosphere seemed very strange.
A moment!
"Well said!"
"Bah bang bang!" Bailiqu clapped his hands and said, "Our Independent Commission Against Corruption needs people like you who are not afraid of rape! Come on, everyone applaud!"
"Huh?" Everyone looked at each other, and then applauded Jiang Shijie together.
Jiang Shijie's heart dropped to the ground, and then his vanity suddenly rose, and he felt that he had never exhaled and raised his eyebrows like he did now.
"Now, since you dare to speak such big words, then you must dare to kill this big tiger Shi Zhijian!" Bailiqu smiled and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Jiang Shijie, "Now I order you to set up a task force to thoroughly investigate
Investigate the authenticity of this report letter!"
"Huh?" Although Jiang Shijie was a dazed young man, he was not a fool. Only then did he realize that something was wrong. But now that he was riding a tiger, he could only take the letter and read it, with a horrified look on his face——
It clearly reads: "Today, I reported that Hong Kong Legislative Council member Shi Chi-kin had committed corruption and accepted bribes when he secretly raided the Lei Luo family, and collected stolen money from police officers such as Chen Zhichao..."
Jiang Shijie's heart skipped a beat, Nima, something big has happened!
