Chapter 390 Another Insider
"Among these messages, some people dreamed that a friend said goodbye to him, and then the friend died not long after. Some people dreamed that his mother suddenly came all the way to see him, and the next day he received a call that his mother had passed away. , someone dreamed that the deceased elder took another relative away for a long journey, and then not long after, the other relative also passed away...
There are many, many such cases. The most extreme one is that a person had three dreams several years apart, dreaming of the death of a relative three times, and each of these three dreams came true. "
This kind of thing is relatively common. Whether on the Internet or in reality, many people have experienced it. Even if you have never experienced it, you have heard it from people around you.
But this kind of thing obviously has no verification value.
The reason is simple, these are just coincidences and probabilities.
It is normal to dream about the death of a relative, friend, or acquaintance. Almost everyone has had such a dream. Usually, after waking up from a dream, people forget it.
But what if it happens that - even if the probability is as low as one in a hundred million, if expanded to the entire world, it means that there are almost 100 people - shortly after having this dream, the person who appeared in the dream happens to really die?
It is obvious that this dream will be valued differently than other dreams. Dreamers will regard this dream as some kind of omen and publicize it, so there will be many such rumors whether on the Internet or in reality.
Even if you dream about the death of a loved one three times in a row, and then different relatives actually die three times in a row, this is also a matter of probability. As long as the population is large enough, there will always be people who will encounter this kind of thing.
And, even if this kind of thing is not a probability or a coincidence, but really has some kind of weird or inner mysterious logical connection, then...how to screen it? How to investigate?
It is simply not practical.
The conclusion of the data analysis team completely blocked the feasibility of this road.
After being disappointed once again, the four people started thinking again and tried to find breakthroughs in other aspects.
After a long time, He Wei's eyes suddenly lit up: "Did Han Rui obtain rewards by opening an online store and selling virtual goods or services? Is it possible that other perpetrators also used this method? Is it possible from this aspect? Check it out?”
Lu Ming perked up at first, feeling that this was an idea, but after thinking about it deeply, he slowly regained his composure.
"It won't work." He shook his head: "I'm afraid there are millions of virtual goods online stores around the world. Are you going to verify the business model and status one by one? There is no way to check. And, it can be done through virtual goods and services. Obtaining rewards is just a way. Its core is to complete the isolation of funds and replace the delivery of funds through non-physical 'services' or the delivery of information.
According to this core, in addition to virtual online stores, there can also be many other forms, such as informing certain information in some way, predicting the outcome of certain games, more simply and crudely, maybe they can also know The winning numbers of the lottery can be paid directly by buying the lottery ticket...
There are many ways to do it, and it’s pointless to check online stores. "
He Wei's previous excitement faded like a tide. She began to wilt and became a little irritated: "I can't even do this. There is simply no way to start."
"That's it. If this secret organization couldn't even do this, we would have noticed it long ago."
"Then what do we do?"
No one answered her. In the conference room, everyone was thinking quietly.
After a long time, Lu Ming said with some uncertainty: "I thought of a way, maybe I can give it a try."
"Oh? Say it quickly."
He Wei immediately cheered up.
Lu Ming organized his language and began to tell his thoughts: "Hu Shan's first dream was about Luo Wei, the boss of Tianxing Group. From this, he became the person who knew in advance that Luo Wei would die.
Luo Wei's death will cause the stock price of his Tianxing Group to plummet, while the stock price of his competitor Leheng Group will skyrocket. Between the fall and the rise, huge interests are involved.
So... is there a second person who knows that Luo Wei will die in the near future? If he existed, who would this person be? What will he do after learning about Luo Wei's death? "
He Wei frowned and thought hard for a moment, then suddenly her eyes lit up and she stood up suddenly. Zhang Dingshan's eyes also flashed with light and he looked at Lu Ming.
Lu Qingliang looked at He Wei and then at Zhang Dingshan. After a moment, he suddenly realized what he was thinking and immediately became excited: "Lu Ming, I can think of all this with you."
Lu Ming waved his hand and shook his head, smiling slightly: "This is just an idea, I'm not sure whether it will work or not."
It is not easy to realize the ability to predict the death of others. Because there are no suitable channels at all. However, the death of Luo Wei, the CEO of Tianxing Group, is a unique opportunity to realize cash.
Although Hu Shan cleared the shares of Tianxing Group at the beginning, he did not have the courage to buy shares of Leheng Group instead. Although he failed to make a fortune, he at least avoided losses.
And, if there was another person outside Hu Shan who knew that Luo Wei would die, who would it be?
First of all, the perpetrators like Han Rui who came to carry out this mission will definitely know.
Secondly, people within the secret organization may also know.
Well, Hu Shan wasted this opportunity to make a fortune because he did not have enough courage. The perpetrator who came to kill Luo Wei and the insiders within the secret organization knew the facts better than Hu Shan. The truth, it is clearer that Luo Wei will die, and it is clearer that this is an excellent opportunity, then...will they make a fortune through this?
This is not necessarily true, and it may be impossible to take advantage of this opportunity due to strict internal regulations, but at least it is a possibility. And, the possibility is not low.
Human greed is an instinct. Especially for transactions that are sure to make a profit without losing money, the results are quick and the profits are large. As long as there is subjective initiative, people will find ways to avoid risks on their own.
Even if the internal regulations of the organization do not allow this, is it okay to let relatives or friends do it for you? It's just a private communication, no one can find it.
In particular, Luo Wei's death was an unexpected event. Most investors suffered heavy losses due to Luo Wei's death. Only a small group of people can make money from this.
So, among this small group of people, except for some who are lucky, why do the rest of them make such investment decisions? What is their motivation? Is there any connection with that secret organization?
This greatly reduced the scope of the investigation and made this investigation feasible.
"Qing Liang, do it immediately and give me the list."
"yes."
Lu Qingliang was also extremely excited. And, compared to other screening and investigation tasks, this task is so simple that there is no difficulty at all. All it takes is one phone call and the results will be available in less than half an hour.
The three of them were waiting in the conference room with great anticipation. Sure enough, less than half an hour, only 22 minutes later, Lu Qingliang came back online and submitted a list of personnel.
"This is the list of all investors who benefited from Luo Wei's death."
Lu Ming opened the list and was immediately surprised.
There are probably thousands of names in the list.
"Here, so many people benefited from this matter? So many people dumped Tianxing Group stocks and bought Leheng Group stocks before Luo Wei's death?"
He originally thought there were only a few people, but he didn't expect there were so many.
Zhang Dingshan took a look and shook his head: "Look at the profit amount."
Lu Ming took a look and realized that among the thousands of investors, most of them made profits of only a few hundred or thousands of yuan. Those who made profits of ten thousand yuan were only a few, and those who made profits of more than one hundred thousand yuan were even rarer. is rare.
Lu Ming realized clearly: "These small investors are not our target."
Master such important information and then make hundreds or thousands of dollars? This is obviously impossible.
If it were Lu Ming, he would either not do it, or he would sell the iron, houses and cars to do it. After all, this kind of opportunity may only come once in a lifetime.
He Wei interjected: "Is it possible that it is a decentralized operation?"
The profit of one account may only be 5,000, but with 100 accounts, it is half a million.
Lu Ming thought for a while and shook his head: "It's unlikely. The more people involved in this kind of thing, the harder it is to keep it secret."
If profiting from Luo Wei's death was allowed within that secretive organization, then the operator did not need to disperse the operations and could just operate openly using his or her own account. If it is not allowed, then diversified operations will greatly increase the operator's exposure risk, and he should also not choose diversified operations.
In short, the possibility of decentralized operation can be ruled out.
"Okay, let me rule it out."
Lu Qingliang ran a brief program to directly exclude investors with profits of less than 10,000 yuan. As a result, the original list of thousands of people was instantly reduced to just over 60 people.
"I think the standard of 10,000 yuan is still too little. This is almost double the profit. If you get this opportunity, who can only scrape together 10,000 yuan? What's more, judging from Han Rui's situation, this No matter how wealthy the people in the organization are, they can still make it with hundreds of thousands of dollars."
Lu Qingliang made suggestions. Zhang Dingshan thought for a moment and made a decision: "Things between 10,000 and 100,000 yuan can be regarded as secondary suspects. Those with more than 100,000 yuan will be focused on investigation."
There are only three winners in total who have made more than 100,000 yuan. One of them made a profit of 160,000, the other made a profit of 390,000, and the first one was an investment institution.
Two days before Luo Wei's death, the investment institution sold out all the shares of Tianxing Group and bought shares of Leheng Group. Afterwards, Leheng Group's stock skyrocketed, and the organization made a profit of 45 million in one fell swoop.
Zhang Dingshan's eyes focused on the investment institution called "Yunhai".
"Lu Ming, you are in charge of Yunhai Capital. He Wei, you are in charge of target number two. I will check on target number one."
Zhang Dingshan handed over the most important goal to Lu Ming. Lu Ming solemnly agreed: "Yes."
These three key targets were personally investigated by three people. For the remaining secondary suspects, the guards were asked to form investigation teams to investigate and verify.
After the meeting was over, the investigation plan for the secondary suspect was arranged, and the guards were asked to carry it out, the three of them immediately set off separately.
…
In the suburbs of Dajiang City, there is a bungalow courtyard.
Shen Xiaojuan, who was in her sixties but looked as old as her seventies or eighties, hunched over, pushed a tricycle out of the courtyard, carefully locked the door, and stepped on the pedals little by little. , walking towards the small supermarket not far away.
"Have you eaten?"
"No, let's go buy some food."
Along the way, Shen Xiaojuan greeted the villagers from time to time, with a cautious smile on her face.
Even in the suburbs of cities, such villages have a high level of xenophobia. It would be fine if they were ordinary young tenants. They would go out early and come back late every day. They would have their own circle. They would not try to integrate into the local residents' circle at all, and they would not care what the villagers think of them.
But Shen Xiaojuan is different. She is too old and has been renting here for a long time. She is almost a local, but she is not a local, so she can only be so cautious and smile to everyone, hoping to integrate into the local circle.
All the way to the small supermarket selling vegetables, she shakily picked some vegetables, thought about it, and then gritted her teeth and bought a few ribs - just a few ribs, barely enough for one person.
After paying the bill and greeting the villagers who also came to buy things, Shen Xiaojuan rode the tricycle again and returned home tremblingly.
As soon as she entered the house, she locked the courtyard door again.
It was just evening now. Usually people don't lock the door.
Two middle-aged women happened to be passing by here together. Seeing the closed door of Shen Xiaojuan's rented house, she started whispering.
"This old woman is so weird. She keeps the door locked all day long in broad daylight."
"Who knows what they are doing in there. If you ask me, Lao Wang shouldn't rent the yard to him or her. At such an old age, don't die in there one day."
"I heard that she collected some money during this period and wanted to buy the yard from Lao Wang. Maybe it was for this reason that Lao Wang rented it to her."
"What? Lao Wang wants to sell the yard? No waiting for demolition?"
"But pull it down. We've been waiting for twenty years and it still hasn't arrived. We won't be able to demolish it in another twenty years."
"Hey. It would be nice if it was demolished."
"Wait, then."
"This old woman has no work all day long. She usually picks up garbage when she has nothing to do. She also has a disabled child with her. Where does she get the money?"
"Maybe it's the money from my hometown. By the way, her disabled child is also very weird. He hides at home all day and never sees him go out."
"I suspect that the child is mentally disturbed. You don't know, a few days ago I came to her house to borrow a dustpan, and I saw her disabled child, that guy, leaning in a wheelchair, and his face was as white as a dead person. , I don’t know what to say when I see someone, that look in his eyes, that hollowness..."
The two whispered and slowly walked away.
