Chapter 427: Looking for a needle in a haystack
Butler: "There are a lot of materials, including audio recordings, videos, and texts. This information has been preliminarily collated. Li Long and Yun Yin are special guests, the two of you work as a team, complete the work within 24 hours, you can share the prize of 150,000 dollars, and advance to the next round together. If you don't get the job done, you'll be given an extra game problem, with one out and one advance. ”
The housekeeper looked at the time: "It's eight thirty o'clock in the evening, and ten o'clock officially starts." Work must be completed by ten o'clock tomorrow evening. The respondents and referees of this work are our old guests: Mr. Li Mo, Miss Sachiko Kuao, and Miss Linghu Tian'er. ”
Butler: "I'll briefly explain the situation. The financial disclosure of public officials is supervised by the prosecution. One day, prosecutors discovered that Lu's nephew had income from unknown sources. The offender Lu is the person in charge of a certain county town and a person with rights. Lu's son and nephew are both studying in the UK. The nephew of the prisoner Lu has an ordinary family. From the third month of studying in the UK, the nephew and his son will receive a sum of money ranging from 300 to 500,000 yuan every other month or two. ”
Housekeeper: "Since the nephew is not bound by the law, the prosecutor cannot directly summon the nephew, so a large amount of domestic and foreign information has been collected. Contains materials from people who can be trusted. As the local governor and one of the core members of the largest family in the area, he can trust many people. ”
Butler: "There is no guarantee that the information is complete, if a guest needs to track down more information, he can contact the referee team to apply for a search warrant." ”
Cao Yun raised his hand: "It means that the key information is not given to us?" We look for clues, then find problems, and then ask the referee team for information?"
Butler: "Maybe, maybe not." It may be necessary to get the job done by chasing the data, or it may not be necessary to get the job done by the follow-up information. You don't know if you have enough information or not. ”
Cao Yun had a little bit in his heart, one or more people bribed Lu, but there was no problem with Lu's account. Where did the money go? Where did Lu's nephew get the money? How did he give the money?
In the Eastern Tang Dynasty, it was very difficult for public officials to be corrupt, and the people did not have the habit of going through the back door. In addition, due to the strict supervision and the considerable sense of responsibility of public officials, the environment of the Eastern Tang Dynasty is not suitable for corruption. The main function of the Prosecution's Special Investigation Department is to supervise and investigate cases related to public officials.
Corruption in this environment shows that the means of collecting money from mainland criminals are very clever. And the offender must think that he can withstand the prosecutor's investigation before he dares to collect money. This is because the Public Prosecutor conducts daily inspections of public officials, especially those who have the right to do so. For example, the son of the criminal Lu went to university abroad, which cost a lot of money, and must be the target of the prosecutor's key investigation.
The trouble with such cases is that prosecutors are unable to conduct a full investigation of non-public officials. For example, prosecutors can detain public officials and search their homes. However, if the evidence is insufficient, the prosecutor can only ask non-public officials to cooperate with the investigation, similar to a police summons.
……
After supper, Cao Yun returned to the room and looked at it, and couldn't help but say "me".
The table was full of paper materials. I picked up a copy and saw that it was a transcript made by Uncle Lu's cooperation with the prosecutor. There were eight USB sticks on the computer desk, all labeled. Interrogation of prisoner Lu, summoning of prisoner Lu's wife, son, daughter, etc. There is also a USB flash drive is the account information, which contains all the private account information opened in the name of the immediate family members of the offender. There are also phone calls from the immediate family members of the prisoner Lu for two years.
The computer desk information contains the asset assessment and income of the offender and his immediate family. For example, what kind of car is the car, what year, what brand, and how much the original price is. How big is the house, where is the location, how much is the purchase price, how much is the price now, etc.
Cao Yun re-looked at the paper materials, and the program team classified them. Some of them are transcripts made by colleagues, subordinates, and superiors. Some of them were written by people who could be trusted. At the same time, there is also a bunch of information, which is the situation of the prosecutor following and investigating several relatives of the prisoner, who have been circled by the prosecutor as the main suspects. Prosecutors suspect that Lu received bribes through them.
All the public information of the people who can be trusted by the offender is in it, and the public information refers to ordinary information. Real estate registration, mobile phone number, car license plate, etc. Private financial information is private information.
Cao Yun first sorted out interpersonal relationships, pulled over the whiteboard, and began to paste names. Paste the offender first, then the immediate family and relatives, mark the arrows with a marker, and write a note on the arrows to explain the relationship between them and the offender or the immediate family members, or relatives.
Began to compile the second information, the work and financial situation of all the people who could be trusted by the mainland.
Cao Yun looked at the general information, which was also a description of the information. The money went into the nephew's account through an offshore bank, is it possible to find out who sent the money by checking all the trusted people's accounts?
The first problem is the issue of authority, there are too many people, and the judge will not approve such a large number of search warrants, at least the suspect must be found first, and some evidence can be prepared to convince the judge.
The second question, suppose A remits 1 million today, and A can explain it by phone, and the 1 million is divided into three or ten times, and how many times each time goes into a certain account. At the same time, it is not guaranteed to be a private account, he may also have a corporate account. In addition, there are a variety of remittance methods to send money to offshore banks. The worst part is that some offshore banks are opened in certain small countries, and people know what you are choosing them for.
Hundreds of millions of dollars in cash were found at home, either ten years ago or stupid.
Some offshore banks with more conscience will entrust domestic banks to sell wealth management products and investment products, and the rate of return is not high. But when you buy a product, you put the money into an offshore bank account. You can use this to manipulate the money directly at an offshore bank.
There is such an operation, your wife borrowed 2 million from your brother-in-law. Your wife invests $2 million in an overseas company. A few months later, the company went bankrupt and liquidated, leaving your wife with nothing to lose. In fact, the two million have been cleared and entered into an account that you can control that has nothing to do with you. A few days later, a new company opened, new clients could invest in the company, and a few months later, the company went bankrupt.
The above is only a private operation, and there are also operational means suitable for the transfer of corporate assets.
When importing raw materials or equipment, enterprises overstate prices, overstate commissions, etc., and give money to foreign companies, and after the foreign companies collect handling fees, they keep the illegal gains in a certain account abroad. At the time of export, the price can be extremely low, and the invoice amount is lower than the actual transaction amount, resulting in a huge price difference, and the same difference is left in the foreign account.
The road is one foot high, the magic is one zhang high, the road is two feet high, and the magic is three feet high......
Cao Yun does not expect a few people to enter the third stage, even including himself. After four hours of work without a clue, Cao Yun also lost some self-confidence.
Working overtime and staying up late to work overtime is the consciousness that the people of the Eastern Tang Dynasty must have in this century. Cao Yun washed his face, poured coffee and continued to work, starting with the closest people to Lu.
Sister Lu, a family of four, had a sudden income of 2 million into Sister Lu's private account and transferred it out on the third day. The inquiry about the transfer out account is the company where Lu's sister works. Looking through the records, Sister Lu said that the company's account was temporarily frozen, and as a manager, she first used her private account to receive payment, and had reported to the tax department and passed the audit of the tax department. Check the query business company, no problem.
Note: After the consent of the whole family of the brother-in-law of the offender, the other party took the initiative to provide bank statements.
Sister Lu asked Cao Yun to waste half an hour, and the next son of Sister Lu, a local firefighter, had no problem. Sister Lu's husband is a ramen shop owner, and most of the money flow is fine. But six months ago, in three days, five payments totaling 2 million yuan, on the third day of receiving the money, 2 million plus 1.8 million yuan in his own account went into a private account.
Lu's brother-in-law said that he borrowed 2 million from two banks, three friends and classmates, plus 1.8 million yuan on hand, to buy the ownership of the ramen shop he operated. After the transcript, the prosecution's investigation report confirmed that the criminal Lu's brother-in-law did not lie.
Your sister, you've confirmed everything, won't you take out the materials? Are you two hundred and five?
However, Cao Yun knew that this situation would occur, because the investigating agency usually did not rely on subjective judgment to extract the materials. There may be a relationship between the brother-in-law and other people. For example, if my brother-in-law borrowed a million from a classmate, did he really borrow it? Anything can happen.
Each family has several people, and each person has their own social circle, and these materials are like spider webs all over the county. Cao Yun finally gave up at six o'clock in the morning, took a shower, and slept well.
……
The referee trio drank tea early in the morning and ate breakfast. The chief director sat with them and explained the current situation of the guests: "Cao Yun stayed up until almost six o'clock, Miyamoto rested at three o'clock in the morning, George was still working, the prisoner Wu rested at one o'clock in the morning, Ouyang Yi was still working, Yue Chuan was still working, Sonny read the information for five minutes, yawned and fell asleep at half past ten." ”
Special guests? don't care, no one cares about them. Of course, they can't be let know that no one cares about them.
Nine-tails said: "Cao Yun doesn't like hard work very much. When he does defense work, he only looks for an entry point, and then looks for materials around it. Ouyang Yi was obviously much better, and he thought about it very comprehensively. The disadvantage is that because the consideration is too comprehensive, he will win the lawsuit that should be won, and the lawsuit that should be lost will also be lost five or six times out of ten. I suspect that Viet Chuan will win first, and Viet Chuan often teaches with paperwork and materials, and has rich experience in criminal investigation and a keen sense of smell. ”
The chief director asked, "Who do you think will be eliminated?"
Li Mo looked at the other two girls and saw that they were not ready to respond, so he replied: "It depends on the strictness of the rules of the program group." It mainly depends on whether the search warrant is given strictly, and if it is, I think only one or two people will win. If the search warrant requirement is relaxed, there should be three to four of the seven guests who will advance. ”
The chief director asked, "Who is there necessarily or very probability?"
Li Mo looked at Linghu Tian'er and gave her a chance to speak. Linghu Tian'er: "Ouyang Yi should not be eliminated, there are a lot of materials that lawyers need to see in civil litigation, especially in commercial litigation. A simple purchase contract can be dozens of pages long, not to mention a business, or even a cross-border business contract. Ouyang Yi has this foundation. The reason why he said that he should be was because Ouyang Yi lacked reasoning and logical thinking compared to them. ”
Chief Director: "Yue Chuan plus Ouyang Yi...... So what if you have to be eliminated? Three of you, please say a name?"
Nine-Tails replied, "Sonny." ”
Linghu Tian'er: "George." ”
Li Mo: "Ouyang Yi." ”
"Nani?"
Li Mo said: "Ouyang Yida only ended the game the day before yesterday, and his mental state is very poor. Now it's working alone, and no matter how big the nerves are, they can't bear it. So Ouyang Yi will definitely be eliminated. ”
The chief director said: "If you say so, the offenders will inevitably be eliminated." ”
Li Mo shook his head: "The offender is suspected of cheating, I don't think he will be eliminated." ”
Nine-Tails disagreed: "The business level of the offender is very high, and you don't need to cheat to get promoted." ”
The chief director quietly stretched out two fingers and shook it, which is a common shooting method in news interviews or reality TV dialogue interviews. When he turned back to cut, the chief director knew that this section should be cut when he saw his movements, and he would not miss it. Just like a reporter interviewing a celebrity with a microphone, ask a question, and after getting an answer, shake the microphone lightly to represent PASS, this question is not needed.
The call came, it was a call from the prisoner, and Li Mo answered the phone: "The referee team." ”
Prisoner: "I need information such as Uncle Lu's private account." ”
Li Mo: "Reason. ”
Offend: "Intuition. ”
Li Mo: "My intuition can't get a search warrant." ”
"He is one of the six suspects who refused prosecutors access to his private information. ”
Li Mo said: "Uncle Lu has the right to refuse the prosecutor's inquiry, unless you can provide more evidence, the referee team cannot issue a search warrant." ”
Prisoner: "Let you Nine-Tails Prosecutor listen to the phone." ”
Nine-tails answered the phone: "Hello senior." ”
Prisoner: "Hehe, senior...... It's hard for me to say anything as soon as you call me senior, well, I'll find what you need. Good bye. ”
Nine-Tails: "Goodbye, senior." ”
The chief director asked curiously, "What was he going to say?"
Nine-Tails replied: "When the prosecution is investigating a case, such as investigating the case of the criminal. The prosecutor is intuitively suspicious of someone, and the judge usually issues a search warrant. An unwritten rule: At the prosecutor's urging, the judge will usually make it easier for him to do so, even if there is no evidence or lead. But the second one is not so simple. Of course, we do not apply for a search warrant at will, whether it is the first or the second. ”
Film and television works have such a scene: in order to collect the suspect's fingerprints and DNA, the police ask the suspect to drink water, or use means such as stealing garbage. First, it shows that the police respect the law. Second, it also shows that the search warrant cannot be abused. The police who respect the law may be weak in some aspects, but the police who respect the law can be respected by others.
