05 Seems to be an old man

He Wan'er's breath suddenly wilted.

Teacher Bai felt powerless, no matter how much she jumped on her little ga bean, it was in vain.

He Wan'er was a little disappointed: "Then, isn't the investigation going to file a case?"

Bai Tinghai's expression was calm: "Regarding the report of this matter, I didn't plan to let you know, after all, it is doubtful whether Zhuo Anran really exists, and the internal relationship of Tongcheng Road and Bridge is complicated, if you rush into it, I am afraid that it will be dangerous." ”

"I'm not afraid, I can protect myself!" He Wan'er stood up suddenly, clenching his fists and becoming emotional, "I have been looking for Zhuo Anran's whereabouts all these years, no matter whether the police check it or not, as long as there is a little clue, I will not give up." Now that there is news, if the police don't investigate, I'll check it myself. ”

"I knew that you wouldn't look back if you hit the south wall. Bai Tinghai shook his head, a little helpless, "If the fraudster has a listed company as a fulcrum in his hand, no one knows what he can leverage." Besides, Mo Chunshan is also very interesting, so Lao Chu of the economic investigation detachment is quite interested in him. ”

When He Wan'er heard that there was a play, his expression became excited, and Bai Tinghai asked before she could speak: "Wan'er, I remember that your last in-depth investigation of an underground bank that caused a sensation was two years ago, right?"

He Wan'er didn't know why Teacher Bai mentioned her work, but he also nodded and replied truthfully: "Yes, it's been more than two years." ”

Bai Tinghai lowered his eyebrows, and his right hand tapped on the wooden armrest of the sofa, making a crisp and pleasant sound: "Your investigation has a good reputation in the industry, and at several domestic economic crime seminars, experts from the police or the prosecution have cited its views. ”

It sounds like Bai Tinghai is praising her, but because of that investigation, Bai Tinghai doesn't know how many times he has praised her, and he has called her his "proud protΓ©gΓ©" on many occasions, and there is never a shortage of praise.

It's just that on this occasion at this time, He Wan'er really doesn't understand what he wants to express.

Bai Tinghai smiled slightly, and finally revealed the mystery: "With this achievement as a foundation, if I propose that you be allowed to report and investigate the Tongcheng Road and Bridge financing incident as a special investigative reporter, do you think Lao Chu will agree? Would you like to participate?"

When I returned to the city from the southern suburbs, it was already twelve o'clock.

Lu Hanzhang is used to going to bed early, and He Waner deduced that she was probably asleep at this time, so the action of opening the door was extremely light.

She slowly rotated the key, and after hearing the click of the lock cylinder of the security door, she gently pushed the door open, and closed it slowly and quietly, and then whispered: "Dad, I'm back." ”

There was silence in the room, except for the rustling of the night breeze through the curtains.

He Wan'er turned on the dimest light, put down his bag and went barefoot, and entered the first room on the right hand side lightly.

The curtains in the room were half-hidden, the moonlight illuminated half of the room, and on the single bed by the window, Lu Hanzhang lay quietly with his eyes closed and already asleep.

He Wan'er saw that she was safe and sound, so he breathed a sigh of relief, tucked the quilt for her to cover half of her exposed arm, and quietly retreated to the living room.

Outside the window, the shadow of the sycamore tree casts obliquely through the window, swaying and undulating in the wind, obscuring the edge of the black picture frame on one wall of the living room.

He Waner stood in front of the photo frame and raised his eyes to look at the person in the photo.

A man in his forties, with a navy blue police uniform and a police hat blended with the night, thick eyebrows, big eyes and a rugged Chinese face, and a light brown scar on his right cheek.

This serious face can scare crying children, and the moment it freezes in the photo, there is a faint warm smile at the corner of the mouth.

He Wan'er stood silently in front of the photo, and after a few minutes, in a voice that only he could hear, he said: "Dad, this time there is finally news from Zhuo Anran, you must bless me in the spirit of heaven and pull him out." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”

Two days later, in a teahouse next to Chaotian Wharf in Jiangbei District.

This teahouse has some history, but it has recently been renovated, and it looks brand new and stylish, and the business is quite good.

The lobby on the first floor was already full, and the private rooms on the second floor were more than half full.

He Wan'er sat in a private room at the end of the corridor, leaning against the window, looking at the half of the bridge under construction a few hundred meters away, and did not speak.

A man and a woman opposite her, the man is in his thirties, with a Chinese character face and a flat head, ordinary facial features, and the woman is much younger, wearing a white shirt, and a melon seed face is delicate and capable.

She took out a thick stack of materials from the plastic bag at her feet, stacked them neatly on the table, and pushed them in front of He Wan'er.

"Reporter He, these are the materials of this investigation, Captain Chu said that you should take a look at it first, but you should pay attention to confidentiality. ”

He Wan'er withdrew his gaze from afar, smiled and thanked him, and moved his gaze to the man across the table.

"Officer Lin, you and Officer Chen are the only ones involved in this investigation?"

Her voice was clear and she couldn't hear her joy or anger, but the accent was deliberately placed on the word "only", and the focus was obviously on the lack of police force.

Lin Feng scratched his head embarrassedly: "It was indeed arranged like this above, after all, it was an anonymous report." ”

He Wan'er didn't speak again, and she knew that she had no position to dwell on this issue as her, after all, it was a great luck to have the opportunity to participate in this investigation.

The night before yesterday, Mr. Bai asked her if she wanted to participate in the investigation of Tongcheng Road and Bridge's suspected economic crimes, and she agreed without thinking about it, not only because it might involve Zhuo Anran, but also because she didn't want to let go of anything that had anything to do with fraud.

In recent years, blockchain and virtual currencies have flourished, new types of economic development have been rapid and in full swing, and the methods of scammers have also kept pace with the times.

He Wan'er knew that this was a mess that the country couldn't take care of, and what she could do as a small reporter was even more insignificant, but she still couldn't stand idly by.

Being able to save one is one, that's what she really thinks. As for whether she will lose herself, she doesn't have the heart to think about it so much for the time being.

It's just that the attitude of the economic investigation department surprised her a little.

When it comes to such a big project as the renovation of the inner ring, she thought that the detachment would attach great importance to it, and no matter how bad it is, it should set up a task force, but she didn't expect to order two people - a man and a woman, a veteran and a newcomer.

The novice is the police girl named Chen Qing who gave her the information just now, and the veteran is the deputy captain of the Ninth Economic Investigation Brigade, Lin Feng.

It's just that the staffing is not enough, and the place where she started working turned out to be in such a teahouse, not the Public Security Bureau, which was really something she didn't expect.

"People report anonymously, so the economic investigation team will return the favor to the other in the same way? The investigation should also be made like an underground party joint, what kind of attention is this? Is there a sense of ceremony?"

He Wan'er quickly flipped through the information in front of him, and still couldn't help but complain.

Lin Feng didn't answer, and he didn't dare to answer. He Guaner may not remember him, but he still remembers He Waner's sharp mouth.

After all these years, this girl is still as difficult to deal with as ever.

Ten years ago, Lin Feng and He Guaner were in a school, he was one level higher than her, that is, an alumnus and a fellow villager, so he was deeply impressed by this school flower, who was known as a once-in-50 year; seven years ago, he saw He Guaner for the last time, she was still wearing a blue police academy uniform, with short hair to her ears and a heroic posture.

I haven't seen him for many years, and He Wan'er, who is clear and bright after fading away from his youth, makes people even more unable to take their eyes off.

It is said that her mother is an ethnic minority, so she has such a face that integrates exotic customs and oriental classics just right, a veritable snow-skinned appearance, a pair of watery peach blossom eyes are particularly outstanding, plus a tall figure of more than 1.7 meters, you can't attract attention.

However, beauty is beautiful, but aggression is too strong, especially the character of not admitting defeat and fiery temper, so that the boys in the school were still girls back then, and their views on He Guaner were very extreme.

Either extremely hateful, or extremely appreciative, there is never a duplicity that is not yin or yang.

So who is he?

Lin Feng touched his chin and thought about this question, and nodded silently after more than ten seconds - well, it should be better to appreciate it more, after all, people can eat with their faces but rely on their strength, and such values are worth advocating.

"Captain, Captain, Reporter, what is the beginning of your investigation?"

Lin Feng, who recalled the past, was pushed by Chen Qing, and then he realized that he was distracted.

"It started around the National Day," he replied, coughing twice and clearing his throat, and began to introduce the background of the company that he would focus on this time.

"Tongcheng Road and Bridge used to be a national brand, established more than 30 years, with highway, municipal, bridge and tunnel and other construction general contracting, professional contracting qualifications, more than ten years ago restructuring, five years ago the stock listing, stock market value of 560 million. The bidding for Tongcheng Road and Bridge won the two bids for the renovation of the inner ring, which is a blockbuster, after all, the company has been silent for many years, and a few years ago it was banned from bidding to participate in the construction of municipal projects because of the crime of bribery. ”

He Wan'er frowned almost invisibly: "I know all this, and how much does the police know about Zhuo Anran?"

Hearing her mention this topic, Lin Feng perked up and immediately regained his state: "We have investigated in many ways and learned that there was a fraudster active in South Asia and Central Asia more than ten years ago, ranging from telecom fraud to virtual multinational enterprises participating in acquisitions, almost all of them related to fraud have been done, and they also prefer to attack businessmen and countries with backgrounds, and almost all small countries in a certain region are spared." He also raised a group of disciples and grandchildren, and gradually became a fraud kingdom. And almost all of the companies under his name are registered in Bermuda or island countries in the southern hemisphere, and the translation of the registered name is similar to the pronunciation of the word Zhuo Anran. ”

"So how much information does the police have about the case that Zhuo Anran has done?" He Wan'er continued to ask.
