Chapter 402 Area

Lu Ming originally thought that he could find out something from the clues of the Freshman Sect, but he did not expect that the secret organization would be so clean from beginning to end.

So, what should we do next?

In the base conference room, the three of them were silent again. This meeting once again ended without any results.

The pressure of the case weighed on the three people like a big stone. During this period of time, there was almost no smile on several people's faces. Even when "Moyu" was investigating, Lu Ming's brows were always furrowed, as if his mind was wandering.

He has been thinking about where to open a new breakthrough and where to get new clues. He was always thinking, and even made several omissions and mistakes in the investigation of new victims.

In the past, this might have been considered a mistake and would have been directly criticized by Zhang Dingshan in a team meeting. But under the current circumstances, these unintentional omissions and mistakes just reflected the absent-minded and business-focused mentality of the second operation team, which was more conducive to paralyzing the organization hidden in the dark. Zhang Dingshan did not criticize him.

Time slipped away quietly under this situation, until one day, the three members of the second team of operations who were still personally investigating on the front line, during a break, once again saw a person holding flowers in his hands with a slightly doubtful look on his face. come over.

This is a park. There are some awnings set up outside a cold drink shop, with some tables and chairs placed underneath. Lu Ming and He Wei each ordered a glass of cold drink, while Zhang Dingshan ordered a glass of water, and each drank absentmindedly.

When they noticed that the young man was approaching, the three of them were instantly alert. In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Lu Ming's mind.

He realized that the showdown might be coming.

Sure enough, the young man placed the flowers on the table of the three of them. It was still a similar process to the last negotiation. After the young man took away the hundred-dollar bill, a mechanical synthesized voice came out among the flowers: "Should we negotiate here, or somewhere with fewer people?"

Zhang Dingshan was silent for a moment and said calmly: "Then change the place."

He Wei glanced at Lu Ming and signaled to Lu Ming. Lu Ming knew clearly that He Wei planned to use this communicator to try to find out the person behind the scenes.

This is what it should be. But Zhang Dingshan shook his head. He Wei had no choice but to stop.

The three of them got up together and came to the shade of a tree where no one had passed.

As if looking at the three people, the mechanical synthesized voice appeared again at this moment: "I gave you a long time to think about it. Now, tell me your decision."

"I reject your request."

Zhang Dingshan said calmly, his words full of determination: "Unless you raise the price."

The mechanically synthesized voice was silent for a moment, and then said: "One hundred million per person can't satisfy you? You have a huge appetite."

Zhang Dingshan smiled and said: "You may not know how much we will pay for cooperating with you. We must get corresponding rewards."

"Say your terms."

"The three of us have a total of 500 million human coins." Zhang Dingshan said calmly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter: "The three of us each have 100 million in cash, which needs to be transferred to our personal accounts. The money must be clean and cannot be used for other purposes." We will bring no trouble. The remaining 200 million will be used to buy a villa with the best location for the three of us in Marina Manor, Star City, and Shimao Yuexiang.

I checked and found that the total price of three villas is about 100 million human yuan.

With the last 100 million human coins left, to purchase shares of the following companies, you must have Class A shares with voting rights.

All the above assets must be clean.

And, Hu Shan cannot be released. His identity is too sensitive and high-level officials are directly paying attention to him. But I can guarantee that Hu Shan will be released within two years at the latest.

This is our condition. "

The mechanically synthesized voice was silent for a longer period of time, and then said: "Although the market price of the three villas is around 100 million human dollars, there is no price at all, and no one is buying it. If you want to buy it in a short time, you can pay at least a premium." 50%. The same is true for the Class A shares of those big companies. In this way, we will pay a total price of almost 600 million yuan. Add in our money laundering operation, the total price will reach 700 million. It is too much.”

Lu Ming and He Wei were silent together.

"It's not that much. You don't know how many people we have above us to deal with."

"If you can release Hu Shan while stopping the investigation, then I can agree to these conditions."

"Sorry, we can't do that."

"We can add some more money. How about 100 million?"

Zhang Dingshan still shook his head: "This is not a question of money. It is impossible to release Hu Shan at this stage. Release Hu Shan within one and a half years, this is the limit of what I can do."

"If Hu Shan cannot be released, then the total price must be controlled within 600 million. Excluding our financial operating costs, we can pay up to 540 million to the three of you."

Zhang Dingshan argued with the other party for a few more words, but the other party seemed to be very determined and refused to let go of the price.

After a moment, Lu Ming took the initiative to speak: "I don't want my villa anymore."

He Wei also said: "My stocks can be exchanged for ordinary stocks."

Zhang Dingshan said calmly: "My two teammates made concessions. But I will not give in. Because I am the captain."

The mechanical synthesized voice was very cheerful this time: "The captain deserves more. Then, happy cooperation."

“A pleasure to work with.”

This ends the communication. Zhang Dingshan looked at the community in front of him, where the latest victim lived, and then looked at Lu Ming and He Wei: "Evacuate."

The three of them left immediately, completely ignoring the victim. They actually just let it go.

The three of them knew the consequences of doing so. This means that the victim will be electrocuted to death on the third day. However, what the three of them knew more clearly was that even if they refused to give up and still continued to investigate, the victim would just change his way of death, from being electrocuted to having his brain cooked directly.

Since it can't be saved, since it is destined to die, then just die. I'm sorry that we can't save you, but we can promise that we...will definitely avenge you.

After returning to the base in silence and ensuring the safety of the environment, Lu Mingcai sighed quietly: "That organization really has a lot of money. It's hundreds of millions, and they took it out as soon as they asked."

He Wei said dullly: "Captain, you have talked to them so much, now they should believe our sincerity in cooperating with them and giving up the investigation, right?"

The buyer is the one who dislikes the goods. If one agrees too readily, it will easily arouse the other party's suspicion. It is necessary to bargain a bit before reaching cooperation.

Zhang Dingshan did not respond to the two of them, but directly took out the phone and dialed Li Wenhua's number.

"Dingshan?"

"Director Li, there is a situation that needs to be reported to you in advance. We have decided to use 'pretended cooperation' to paralyze our opponents in exchange for the safety of ourselves, our families and friends, and to buy time for the follow-up investigation. In the next period of time , a large amount of money will arrive in our personal account..."

Zhang Dingshan described in detail his investigation ideas and the details of negotiations with his opponents.

At this moment, even Li Wenhua couldn't help but exclaimed: "Where did this organization come from and be so wealthy? We are famous for having abundant funds. If I were asked to approve hundreds of millions of funds at once, I would have to consider it." Several days. Okay, I understand this matter, Dingshan, do it according to your ideas."

"yes."

"be safe."

Li Wenhua paused for a moment before speaking these four words solemnly. Zhang Dingshan was silent for a moment, and then said seriously: "I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Dingshan looked at He Wei and Lu Ming: "We must be more careful in the following investigation. Once exposed, we and our families will immediately suffer retaliation."

Lu Ming took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.

He Wei said: "Should we check the source of the funds paid to us by that secret organization? Maybe there will be clues."

Zhang Dingshan thought for a moment and shook his head: "No. This may be a trap used by the secret organization to test us."

He Wei was startled and immediately closed her mouth.

If you are really sincere about cooperating with us and intend to implement the terms of cooperation, why do you need to check the source of funds? As long as you investigate the source of funds, it means that you have not stopped the investigation and you have not fulfilled the terms of cooperation. In this case, we are forced to have no choice but to kill you, your family and friends.

"Even if it's not a trap, since that organization did this, it must be quite sure."

He Wei shook her head like a rattle: "If I don't check, I won't check. I won't check."

The three of them were silent together. After a moment, Lu Ming said with some difficulty: "But, where should we check?"

Zhang Dingshan whispered: "Don't make a slight move until you are sure of it. Once you make a move, it will be thunderous and will not give your opponent any chance to resist."

Lu Ming took a deep breath.

In the next few days, the three of them did nothing and did not go out to investigate the victims. However, just as we had guessed before, the victim who was abandoned by us did die from electrocution at the scheduled time.

This can probably be regarded as a show of sincerity. After all, we didn't make trouble for you this time.

Lu Ming stayed at the base during this period, constantly looking through investigation materials and files, and thinking constantly. One day after that, Lu Ming suddenly received a text message from a virtual number on his phone.

The content of the text message is a series of numbers. Lu Ming looked at it carefully and slowly recognized it. This... seemed to be a series of lottery numbers.

After notifying Zhang Dingshan and He Wei of the situation, Lu Ming randomly found a lottery shop and purchased the corresponding number of lottery tickets. After the lottery draw, Lu Ming suddenly discovered that the special prize numbers were exactly the same as these numbers.

Lu Ming won the prize. Special Prize. After deducting taxes, I received almost 105.6 million human currency.

The extra bit is probably considered a gift?

"Is this a way to pay the remuneration? It really makes sense."

In response, Lu Ming smiled bitterly.

He didn't think about starting with the lottery management agency to check for traces of the secret organization.

After receiving the award, Lu Ming looked at the series of numbers lying on his account, and he didn't feel any excitement at all.

It's not that Lu Ming has reached such a noble level, but that he knows that this money does not belong to him. After this case is investigated, it will definitely be handed over.

Time passes slowly. One night, Lu Ming raised his head from his desk, looked at the clock with bloodshot eyes, and saw that it was almost 11 o'clock.

call……

He let out a long breath.

After a long period of uninterrupted thinking, he finally found some inspiration and a potentially fruitful investigation route.

After washing his face, Lu Ming called Zhang Dingshan and He Wei directly, regardless of the fact that it was getting late, and called them into the conference room again.

Realizing that Lu Ming might have some ideas, He Wei was a little excited and looked at Lu Ming with eyes full of expectation.

For some reason, Lu Ming felt inexplicably afraid to face He Wei's eyes.

He lowered his head and pretended to look through the information in his hand while saying: "I didn't find any new clues. I just thought of an investigation method that we ignored before. I think this investigation method may yield something." , worth trying.”

"I knew it!" He Wei suddenly clapped her hands, full of excitement: "I knew Lu Ming that you would definitely be able to think of a way! How could you, a smart person like you, not be able to do anything?"

Zhang Dingshan knocked on the table lightly and said in a deep voice: "Let's hear what the solution is first."

"okay."

He Wei closed her mouth and regained her composure.

"Big Data."

Lu Ming said these three words directly: "Use big data to investigate."

"Big data? We use it all the time."

"It's not targeted enough." Lu Ming shook his head: "We need to investigate from the organizational characteristics of that secret organization. First of all: there are inextricably linked connections between the new faction and that secret organization. Is this basically certain?

However, based on the characteristics of the new sect and the evidence we have obtained, we can conclude that any place where the new sect is active is almost certainly a place with more victims, and it is also a place where seducers are active.

Through the files of the public security department’s previous crackdowns on the new sects, we can determine where the new sects are more active, and we can determine that the seducers are also more active in these places. "

He Wei thought for a while and agreed with this inference.

Zhang Dingshan signaled: "Continue."

"Through the study of the only seducer we captured, Han Rui, and the second seducer we have, Shen Xiaojuan, we can indirectly get a glimpse of the working mode of the seducer.

I have researched a lot of information about the two of them during this period, and I found that these two people usually only move within one area during their soul seduction operations. Based on this, I have reason to believe that... the soul-enchanting master is also divided into areas. "
