Chapter 59
The weather was changeable, the thick clouds pressed overhead, the gray tone sank into the rain layer, twisted into a strange whirlpool of streamlined rotation, and the clouds pumped out a trace of purple and red electric light against the current......
Several black cars stopped on the cliff, and a group of people in civilian clothes got out of the cars, and a group of special operations team members got off the truck behind them, and soon cracked the electronic access control system and infiltrated and surrounded a house.
ETT1 It was easy to track each other through satellite positioning, and a man in a trench coat stood outside and shouted, "People in this house pay attention, from now on, give up armed resistance, disarm and surrender!"
After several exchanges of fire between the two sides, ETT1's men quickly took control of the situation, and a man in a trench coat and a young woman with brown hair walked into the room, took the documents from a box on the cabinet, and took the documents.
"Vincent, let's go!" she walked away with a light step.
The Pdora Officers would never have imagined that when Egbert came to the top of the mountain alone, they thought that they would have the chance to win, and they could not only get back the information, but also get rid of William's henchmen.
But they didn't know that the praying mantis was catching the cicada and the yellow finch was behind, and they just exchanged hostages to get the information, and they were violently sniped by the personnel sent by ETT1 behind them, and the special personnel controlled the scene at a lightning speed, and the two investigators entered the house and took the information.
The black sedan drove on the winding mountain road, and in the dim light inside the car, the coffee-haired woman opened the silver-white laptop on her lap in the meager light from the window, put the disk in it, and read out the file.
In front of the silver-white laptop, the coffee-haired girl clasped her hands and propped up her chin, pondering. Roche not only has investments in North America, but also bought a number of leisure facilities, hotels and large casinos and cafes on an island ten years ago, as well as 400,000 square meters of land in the southwest of the island and the Commercial Bank of Saint-Martin.
The ETT1 investigator smelled something unusual, and a light flashed in his eyes - such a large-scale investment, but the appearance was suspicious.
Once the laptop was connected to the Internet, ETT1's intelligence system was put into operation, along with information provided by Interpol, and the INTERPOL logo appeared in the background of the screen: a sword stuck in a world map - a few seconds later, an important information document was transmitted......
Ten years ago, William Rosehill bought a number of leisure facilities, hotels, large casinos and cafes on an island, as well as 400,000 square meters of land in the southwest of the island and the Commercial Bank of St. Martin, and owned large-scale casinos and hotels in several places, and established a tourism empire with an industry of 2 billion yuan in less than ten years.
ETT1's investigation found that the amount of black money bleached by this person's hands was incomparably large, and they confirmed that the person was a professional criminal financier. Under such a banner, he is doing money laundering behind his back.
In recent years, the drug economy, pimp business, human trafficking, arms smuggling and other black economies have given rise to a huge amount of black money that needs to be bleached, so professional criminal financiers have emerged to intervene among corrupt politicians, speculative businessmen, gangs, and criminal forces, and they do not contact each other directly, but through guò fake lawyers and fake investment advisers.
The economic crisis has provided a great opportunity for money laundering, and these huge sources of capital include arms smuggling, drugs, unscrupulous banks, and criminal operations.
When some companies encounter difficulties, financial brokers arrange and introduce support from them, and the difficulties of such companies are not solved in the end, but instead become completely dependent on the funds of criminal organizations, and they are prosecuted.
Some time ago, a large amount of illegal funds flowed into the market, forming a bubble, which soon collapsed, and many banks in Paris were trapped in as much as 2.5 trillion yuan.
ETT1, as the agency investigating specific crimes, has taken note of this anomaly, and investigators must identify who among these financial brokers is the financier of professional crime.
ETT1 investigators have done a lot of work around this investigation.
The Bureau of Investigation vehicles and personnel surrounded a house in George Street, and a man in a trench coat, accompanied by a group of heavily armed men, broke in, "Mr. William, I'm afraid you'll have to come with us." ”
William in the room changed his face, "This doesn't work, how can you arrest me? Do you know who I am?"
The man in the trench coat said coldly, "It's useless who you are, last time ETT1 took away an arms dealer with a military background and the son of a former French president, these two have been sentenced to prison under the conclusive evidence, and no one can save them." ”
When ETT1 was taken away on charges of financial crime and money laundering, Roland sat in the car and looked out through the window.
Twenty-four hours ago, as they walked out of a building at headquarters, Investigator Vincent suddenly remembered something and said to Roland, "By the way, Dr. Breck has some things to tell you. ”
The two soon reached the upper floor of the Science Museum, where Dr. Breck sat in his leather chair and opened a letter, saying, "Miss Aurora, my mathematician friend Professor Brown and I have found something out of the ordinary, and we want you and your partner to show it. ”
He analyzed, "This financial avalanche was caused by a large-scale group behavior, like receiving some kind of hint of a wrong signal. Financial brokers, stock analysts, experts, banks and large corporations have been swept up in it, and many of them have lost their judgment. ”
"The profit-seeking nature will get everybody involved, and it won't take a few rounds for this avalanche to stop, and then many of the big banks and institutions will be locked up. ”
"But how did the people who designed this game do it?" Roland asked.
The doctor replied, "I don't know, but this man is an absolute genius, with knowledge of psychology as well as finance and mathematics." ”
"My friend Professor Brown said that in his opinion, this mathematical model structure will automatically stop crashing in rounds 25 to 32, and the market will be in shambles. ”
"Speaking of which, from my professional point of view, this kind of game also implies group manipulation, like a kind of psychological control mini-game that leads to the occurrence of group madness." ”
Roland raised her head, and she hesitated, "Psychological control?"
Dr. Breck sat down in his chair and said, "Yes, there are many ways to achieve psychological control, expressions, symbols, language, and the common means are suggestion and hypnosis. ”
"For a certain purpose, people send out certain information in an implicit and indirect way through guò actions or certain symbols, so that the crowd accepts the expressed views and opinions, or makes the crowd unconsciously act in the way of the manifestation. Like advertisements, promotional videos, all have such hints. ”
Dr. Breck said, "Implication is omnipresent in our lives, and most of it happens unconsciously. However, the design of this game is more than that-"
"It uses mathematical models to make the pyramid structure of the game clearly visible, and the avalanche is like an avalanche that grows bigger and bigger, and many people in this game are quick to benefit, like a guinea pig that is enlarged and stimulated by an electric shock, so that even the clever minds are all involved in it, as if there is a collective loss of judgment. ”
When mathematicians and psychologists interpret the economic avalanche from a different perspective, they find something shocking.
It's horrible!
"How crazy is this!" Investigator Vincent took a breath.
It's a game, and the game designer isn't involved in it, he's just watching the world go crazy on the sidelines.
Dr. Breck also took a deep breath, "How could someone like this have thought of inventing such a game if it weren't for such a crazy person, and with such terrible consequences—geniuses are often insane." ”
Roland couldn't help but ponder, who had the ability to design such a game?
The two investigators left the doctor's place and returned to their office. "Roland, have you heard the news announced by the financial investment community this morning?" a colleague suddenly asked.
"What's the news?" Roland was stunned.
Glancing at the report in today's newspaper, the colleague said, "The Roche Fund will announce the injection of capital into the major banks in Paris, as well as the establishment of enterprise support projects and angel investment programs." ”
With such a big spend, her eyebrows raised, and in a depressed market, Roche's arrival was undoubtedly a shot in the arm, encouraging everyone in the financial and investment markets, as if encountering a spring rain that had not been encountered for a long time.
Suddenly I understood the entanglement between Egbert and William.
Roland has already deduced the whole story, the person behind the scenes is William, and the person who fell into this game is also William.
The PDORA organization thought it had caught Egbert's weak point, but it was in the middle of the game. William thought that this would be a good way to kill Egbert before he could take control of the family, but he didn't know that his opponent was sensible, calm, and strong—that man had almost no weakness in his rationality.
For ETT1 and Interpol, defeating William and purging the Pdora forces in one fell swoop was a major victory.
Roland knew that this was just an illusory game, and whoever took it seriously would lose...... It turns out that people are too naïve, confidantes are not priceless, this qiē is nothing more than the internal struggle of the Roshill family, and the vortex of struggle is wrapped in the involvement of many unrelated people and institutions.
William fell into madness for money and power, and eventually led him to madness and failure.
The only person in the whole world who is awake is Egbert. He designed a qiē but was immersed in his own game, playing with everyone in applause.
This game, this scene, this conspiracy, he is the biggest winner.
Finally, the arrival of Eggbert seemed to ignite a magical magic trick in an instant, announcing capital injections and investment plans, which encouraged everyone in the depressed financial and investment market, and he seemed to have become a savior at that moment, and he was respected like a fish in water in the government and the financial investment community.
There is no miracle of magic in the world, magic requires sacrifice. In one movie, there is a magic trick that turns a bird into nothing, and in essence kills it brutally. In the crowd, only the boy's eyes were the sharpest and most innocent, and he cried and said it was dead!
Behind every great magic trick there is a sacrifice – people sacrifice themselves and the truth in it.
People are reluctant to recognize that their present understanding is flawed and dysfunctional, and they find revelry and pleasure in the collective blinding—because people need to be deceived—and this sacrifice can be a finger, a bird, a person, a truth, or even a soul.
Laying down such a game will turn the world upside down - the culprit is William, and everyone who participates in this game has original sin and is to blame.
Egbert is like having no heart, no superfluous feelings, and can calculate a qiē rationally and precisely like a devil at any time.
He was outside the chessboard, and the clouds were light and clear, and he smiled with his hands, annihilating the clouds in the world, and staying out of the matter.
Roland has always known how to grasp the boundaries of reason, life is too complicated, don't do things you shouldn't do, say things you shouldn't say, and fall in love with someone you shouldn't love in this life.
For this kind of person, confidantes have never been priceless, and the encounter between the girl Katerina and Egbert he met was just to make her fall in love with a devil?
"I don't say love. ”
"I want you, Alice!" his voice was sonorous, and just before his eyes, he kissed her, and she accepted his kiss without the slightest resistance.
Su Xiaoqi didn't understand what he was thinking, but he knew one thing bluntly from this sentence, he wanted her!
The two have lived together for a long time, but because they are too close, they have fallen into a blind spot, and she has never understood what young people are approaching her for?
finally understood that the other party was not joking, she reacted that the young man was real, and he said the simplest and most straightforward way of expression between men and women.
Eren looked at her gaze, and it made her feel as if the place on her body that had been touched by him was on fire.
When she came back to her senses, she wanted to withdraw, but before she could support herself, somehow, her hands and feet became weak and fell on the other party.
She buried her head and trembled slightly on his chest, how could she be like this? I heard his low voice whispering in her ear, "Are you afraid?"
"You've accepted me, why be afraid?" he asked.
"With me, you will be happy. The warmth of Allen's body made her lose the opportunity to stay away from this embrace.
He didn't miss the opportunity, and when the girl looked confused and her eyes reflected his figure, he accurately seized the opportunity.
When dopamine-producing neurons in the brain are stimulated under extremely bad conditions, cravings are exacerbated, changes in heart rate reduce physiological reserves, and willpower is depleted. The girl barely came to her senses, and was captured by him like this, like a little worm caught in a spider's web, unable to break free.
The young man was asking her at the moment to acknowledge their relationship.
The girl half-hung her long black eyelashes, gently pushed the other party's chest, lowered her head and got up, too dull!
By the time she had come to her senses, it would have been too late for her to understand the meaning of his words! If they had been like before, she could comfort herself that she could maintain this friendship with him, and even tell herself that the two of them could continue this friendship decades later...... Now that it has developed to this point, the other party is pressing her step by step to accept the real relationship between the two.
After a while, she said quietly, "Let's be friends...... Isn't it good?"
"Alice, do you think we're friends like this?" he gently bit her ear with his lip, causing the jade white ear to quickly turn red.
The so-called friendship relationship has deteriorated at this point, or rather, it has developed according to the other party's expectations from the beginning.
Su Xiaoqi couldn't avoid it, she didn't expect to be confessed like this by Allen, she couldn't escape the gaze of his blue eyes, and she couldn't even say any powerful words to resist the other party, realizing that with him in her heart, whether it was this relationship or the other party, she couldn't escape lightly.
She didn't know how to react, so she didn't know how to react, or ran away in the opposite direction, or was she forced to accept the current form?
The brain blocked again, and it died......
The young man's clear gaze caught a glimpse of the girl being dull again, her brow carefully furrowed together, as if she were solving an equation that could never be solved.
He took her hand with one hand and stroked the corner of the girl's eyebrows, "If you can't figure it out, why think about it?" Maybe there is no answer, maybe you don't need to think about it at all—isn't it the best way to recognize what you want at the moment?"
The young man took her hand and dragged her into his arms again.
Whether it is fate or calamity, he is already the most colorful stroke in her life.
The arrival of love was simple and sweet and direct, her eyes widened, she did not even have the right to refuse it, and watched it come.
He took her by the hand as if she were a small child, gently picked her up, and left the cold room. Outside, there was a blank white snow.
He felt like he was being taken to another warm room, where the fireplace was blazing with warm fire and a gorgeous carpet of rusty flowers.
When the girl got off him, she took a few steps, and for some reason, her body became more and more burned, and became more and more weak, not only did she not have the strength to resist him, but she also seemed to have no strength to speak.
"Hungry? Eat something. He said.
Their development to this point is a matter of course.
The weakness of women is that they are inherently unable to resist the temptation of happiness and the thrilling moment of beauty, and any man who knows how to use this will succeed in women.
She lowered her head and ate her French meal in one gulp, but she was a little nervous.
In his opinion, he had given her time to confirm her mind, and when she was unstable, she was actually no longer able to resist his approach.
Just after the last bite, he leaned down and kissed her soft lips, "Hmm......" He seemed to kiss and touch the soft petals, and it was like sucking red wine.
His arms were intertwined with hers, no different from those of his closest lovers. As their lips parted, the girl pleaded, "Don't be here, Alan, I'm going back." ”
He lifted her face with his hand, his face was slightly flushed but not because of shyness, touching her forehead, the girl had a fever, had soaked in the lake before, spent the night in the forest, floated in the sea, was kidnapped to this cold place for so long, and her body was on the verge of collapse.
He didn't even notice this, even if he wanted to have her, it wasn't at this moment.
