Chapter 4 It turned out to be a false alarm
There was silence in the car for a while, the two of us had our own hearts, neither of us wanted to be the one who spoke first, knowing that Wei Kai's mobile phone rang suddenly, the awkward atmosphere in the car was eased, and Wei Kai motioned for me to help him answer the phone.
In order to relax the atmosphere, I can look at Wei Kai: "In case it is my girlfriend's call, wouldn't it be a misunderstanding if I answered it." I picked up his phone and pressed it, but the name on the caller ID on the monitor looked like a man, "Huh? Boyfriend. ”
It can be seen that Wei Kai's mood is better now than just now, at least because of my nonsense, he unconsciously pulled out a smile, "Who is it?" ”
"Zhang Ming." I read the names on the display.
"Pick it up." Wei Kai's eyes suddenly lit up, "Very important call." He emphasized.
I nodded, and immediately pressed answer, and a magnetic voice came from the phone; "Is this Mr. Peter, please? Me, I'm looking for Mr. Peter. "I'm not sure about the moans on the phone, probably because I'm wondering why it's a girl who answered the phone.
I covered the microphone and asked Wei Kai: "He said he was looking for Mr. Peter, are you?" ”
Wei Kai nodded: "Ask him where he met today." ”
I gave chemistry to the other party as a cat and a tiger, but the other party didn't seem to particularly agree with Wei Kai's decision, and was a little hesitant when answering: "Do you have to be today?" The other party confirmed with me again.
I thought that I had opened the public so the other party's answer Wei Kai heard it clearly, he didn't speak, but nodded, signaling me to keep the date low today.
After repeated negotiations with the other party, I finally booked the meeting time to meet at 8 o'clock in the evening at a western restaurant.
After hanging up the phone, I asked Wei Kai evenly: "Why are you so insistent?" What's the origin of this boy? ”
"Ding Yuan's friend." Wei Kai's expression became rarely serious, "He is one of the few people who still keeps in touch with the quota after Ding Yuan was promoted to sales manager. Aside from Ding Yuan's parents and other relatives, he is the only friend who keeps in touch with Ding Yuan. Wei Kai thought for a moment and then said, "It should be a friend, right?" Anyway, I only found him alone in the communication records that have not been opened for the past two years, and I have not kept in too frequent contact with Ding Yuan, and the rest are his family and colleagues. So I think we might be able to get some clues from him. ”
"In what capacity did you get in touch with this person?" After listening to Wei Kai's explanation, I became interested in the name of Wei Kai by the person on the phone just now.
Wei Kai was stunned for a moment, then smiled; "How could I possibly contact him myself? I got off my friend to look for him, he and his fiancée work in the bank, he is in charge of the background data of British Airways, his girlfriend is in charge of customers, and a friend's company of mine has some cooperation with their bank, so I helped to draw the line, saying that I will return to China to invest and want to consult some things first. ”
"Then it should be his girlfriend who came to receive you, not him?" I don't quite understand the train of thought of the boy who is calling, he probably doesn't know much about business, right?
Wei Kai shook his head: "No, you misunderstood, we went to him to get more clues about Dingyuan, not to do business negotiations, so we want to simplify our meeting as much as possible." I asked my friend to meet them first, and when his fiancée went to the bathroom to leave the table, he pretended to receive a phone call from me by accident, and through the phone call with me, he revealed to him that I was a womanizer, and made him doubt my character. Later, shortly after his fiancée returned, I called him again to deepen her perception of my image, and because his fiancée was present this time, his fiancée was a very conservative person, and the call between us would inevitably make his fiancée afraid of me in advance. Later, my friends would inadvertently reveal to them that I did have some bad habits in my relationship, which completely confirmed their suspicions. However, my friends will also talk to them about the benefits of working with me as a bait for them, especially his fiancée, to refuse a cooperation that would bring her good returns, rather than to meet with me outright. In this case, if you can't organize your fiancée's decision, and you don't want your fiancée to be in danger, the only way is to meet me in advance, understand who I am, and probably bring some audio or video recording tools this time to record my ugly face, make the last effort to stop my fiancée, or warn me to terminate the cooperation or something. Anyway, the purpose of our meeting with her has been safely accomplished, and his thoughts don't matter anymore. ”
"So you just insisted on letting me answer the phone, and you didn't make a sound during the whole call, just to prove to him your playboy image, to make him more worried, so that he wants to meet you even more and persuade you not to cooperate with his girlfriend?" I looked at Wei Kai with a smile, what is this, it has to be so complicated to meet.
Wei Kai guessed what I was thinking, his expression was a little worried: "I'm not sure if the people on the entrusting party have gotten any news about this person, if they find out that Ding Yuan has friends they don't know, it will definitely arouse their suspicions, if they let them get in touch with this person in advance, then it is very likely that we will not find anything, so it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, we must quickly solve all the clues we collect." ”
After Wei Kai said this, I didn't answer for a long time, Wei Kai glanced at me curiously, and I just looked at him coldly: "What's wrong?" Wei Kai asked me.
"It's nothing," I shook my head, "I just think you've really grown a lot, and although your temper is still as impatient as before, the way of coarse grain problems has obviously grown a lot better than before, and the analysis of problems is very comprehensive and organized." 'Shibetsu three days should be impressed' is what I feel now, right? I looked at him with a smile, and admired in my heart that the reckless boy back then had grown into a man who could take charge of himself.
Wei Kai didn't expect me to praise him, and after shouting a few times, he didn't dare to look at me again.
Imagine that what you said is indeed very right, the heart is in the client because of Wei Kai's temptation has begun to suspect that we may have seen through their motives, and it is estimated that we are more interested in the secrets that can not be told to outsiders in their company, Shenzhen may be dug up by us, so in order to prevent such a thing from happening, they are also doing their best to hide all the clues like us, it's really hard to say, whether they are investigating Ding Yuan's connections now, Therefore, obtaining Ding Yuan's information as comprehensively as possible is the key to the investigation.
"Wei Kai, do you know which bank this Ding Yuan's friend works in?" I looked at Wei Kai and asked.
"On the Golden Needle Road." Wei Kai thought for a moment and then confirmed with me, "Let's go to the bank and wait for him to get off work?" ”
I nodded and smiled, "That's right, I don't want anyone to be the first to get ahead during this special period." ”
Wei Kai drove to the door of the bank, we drove around the bank, we didn't see any suspicious vehicles, and it was confirmed that there was no client's car among the vehicles parked near the bank. After that, we drove the car to the opposite side of the bank, hoping to pick up the person at the first time, Wei Kai went from the back seat to the silver tin baffle and put it in front of the windshield, and then took out the makeup bag and began to tinker, saying that it was to change the image, and the second phase was to keep staring at the dynamics of the bank building opposite the back seat.
Half an hour later at the end of the month, when I was about to turn my eyes to the car, I saw a look in the rearview mirror that shocked me, and if I hadn't been sitting in the car and had never left the driver's seat, I would have thought that there was a different person in the driver's seat, someone I didn't know at all. The shredded hair is carefully groomed into a delicate greasy head, and the eyebrows are specially repaired to give a natural and thick appearance. The beard is hung so that even the stubble is visible, and the smooth chin presents a good texture except for the skin. He's struggling with whether to shave off the beard he's wearing, and now he looks a bit like a British heartthrob in the 20s of the last century, but there's always a bit of a slippery feel.
Even though I was sure of the identity of the person sitting in front of me, I still subconsciously whispered: "Wei Kai? ”
The person in the driver's seat grinned when he heard my call, and even if he changed his appearance, the smiling face in front of him was still the same: "How's it going, scared, right?" He showed off to me in the rearview mirror, "I didn't work as an actor in vain in those years, I specially learned from the special effects makeup artist of the crew." Do you want me to do it for you? ”
I pouted and waved at her, forget it, I don't have the skills to play the opposite of me. As I watched him struggle with whether to shave off the mustache on his lips, I still gave pertinent advice: "It's more pleasing to the eye if you shave it, if it's too retro, it will look very deliberate, and it won't be good if it is debunked." ”
Although Wei Kai listened to my suggestion and was about to shave off the mustache on it, he still muttered in his mouth: "Well, the aesthetics are really bad, obviously it has never been seen." ”
Nonsense, obviously it has been debunked by me and Li Jing every time, but I don't dare to mention Li Jing now, I don't want to spoil the atmosphere that has finally eased down. Although I kept teasing Wei Kai, I felt as if I had seen a familiar figure, 'Gmm' My heart sank, and I pushed Wei Kai in front of me: "Wei Kai, look at the person who is going to the bank, don't you think it's familiar?" ”
Wei Kai looked in the direction of my finger, and suddenly opened his mouth wide and said, "I'll rub, isn't that Ding Yuan's boss?" "Although it is not the uncle who was sent to receive us by the entrusting party just now, but this person I have seen from the information given to me by Wei Kai, is a member of the board of directors of the entrusting party, he holds most of the shares of the entrusting party, and has a lot of appeal and voice among the board members. He's coming? Is it simply a business cooperation with this bank? Or do you already know the news of Ding Yuan's friend?
"Their company doesn't have much cooperation with this bank." Without waiting for me to ask, Wei Kai spoke first, "Otherwise, I can't treat this person as Ding Yuan's friend, I have nothing to do with his business at all, but I keep in touch, I think Ding Yuan will definitely die thinking that he will help him inside, oh damn you, money laundering has accumulated a lot of pressure, and he can't open his mouth to his family, but he can't keep it in his heart forever, and there will definitely be a way to solve it." I didn't see any extravagant hobbies in him, so when I saw someone on his copper beard road who had nothing to do with the business of the entrusted company, I thought it was an important clue. Now it seems that maybe I didn't think it through. ”
In fact, now, not only Wei Kai, but also I suddenly have a sense of uncertainty and crisis. "Could it be that the members of this shareholders' meeting unilaterally have business cooperation with this bank?" I'm still holding on to the last shred of unrealistic fantasies.
Wei Kai didn't give me face, but said directly; "Impossible, you see that before he walked to the building just now, he had been looking at the name of the bank, and he was still talking to the assistant next to him about anti-corruption, he should be confirming the information to the assistant, if he had business dealings with this bank, he would not confirm it to the assistant repeatedly. This is supposed to be her first time here. ”
"Ding Yuan's friend's information has been exposed?" I voiced my concerns.
"Quite possibly." Realizing that the situation had changed, Wei Kai and I immediately decided to go directly to the bank to take action.
"Do you know which floor Ding Yuan's friend works on?" In order not to arouse suspicion, I borrowed a wig that Wei Kai put on the car, made a simple cross-dress, and got out of the car with Wei Kai and walked into the bank. Wei Kai explained to me. After that, he answered my question: "In the basement of this building, there is the computer room of this building, and the private computer rooms of the tenant companies in the building are concentrated on the basement floor of the building, but you need to swipe the door to see before entering." However, I have universal access control, and the shareholder has just entered, and we still have time, so we can go directly into the computer room of the building and take Ding Yuan's friends away. Wei Kai glanced at his watch, "Generally, the conversation time will not exceed half an hour, especially when looking for someone, basically a few small talk will get to the point, so we have about ten minutes to be able to take people away." ”
I patted the surging shoulder: "You go and take someone." Take it away directly after finding it. ”
"What about you?" Wei Kai looked at me alertly.
He and I entered the building across the street today: "I'm going to meet this shareholder in the building." "In order not to lose time, we went straight to the emergency escape staircase." Generally, dignitaries will contact the company's top management directly, especially such antique-level figures, they will never compete with employees like us, but directly make appointments with management. If you don't find Ding Yuan's friend in the computer room on the basement floor, it is very likely that he has already been dealt with, and the high-level office is waiting for this shareholder. The time to call today is too strange, if you can find him, I will take him directly, if not, I will confirm, if it is consistent with my conjecture, then we have to give up this clue. Besides, I would like to confirm whether this shareholder, the fourth line, has any connection with the bank. If it's a regular customer, you can hear it from their conversation. ”
Wei Kai glanced at me, he wanted to say something, but in the end he just said 'stay safe' and turned downstairs.
The bank occupies part of the first and second floors of this critical office building, with the first floor being the bank lobby for external offices and the second floor being the administrative offices. There is a city branch here, so the rented area is also a little smaller than the head office. If you want to go up to the second floor, you need to go up to the second floor from the staff passage on the first floor. I went around on the second floor and found that there is actually a door on the second floor to enter their administrative area, which is specially set up to facilitate the use of the toilet by employees on the second floor, but you need to swipe the card to enter, and there are employees at the door.
When I was still worrying about how to enter, I found a man wearing a standard uniform different from that of a bank clerk leading a middle-aged man into the staff passage, and after talking to the lobby manager at the door, the lobby manager politely invited the two to the second floor.
Because it is the peak of business processing, there are many people who are so lively, and it seems that two people come to the bank to handle business in the same way, but they can take a special channel, and some people are curious to ask the lobby manager the reason. The lobby manager explained that the customers of the securities company next to them need to bind their bank cards to open accounts, because the upstairs only accepts this business, so they originally had to enter the second floor through the staff channel. Hearing this, some customers are still not satisfied, but I do have an idea.
I quickly turned into the securities company opposite, took a few documents, took out the brown paper bag from my bag, pretended to have just come out of a securities company in the building, and asked the lobby manager to help me open the staff passage as if I needed to check the information with the bank, and lied to them that my investment experience had just brought another person in. The lobby manager, though skeptical, let me in after glancing at my injured information. After successfully entering the second floor, I glanced at the layout of the second floor, and immediately locked the innermost office on the right hand side of the second floor, the only one that looks like the boss's office, the conference room is empty, and the others are basically workstations, or small offices with the door open, only the one and the office is completely closed door, I glanced at the surveillance overhead, and found that there was an obvious direct penetration into the closed office, it seems that if I lift the ban there, I should be found.
When I thought I was going to run for nothing, the door of the room suddenly opened, and the familiar shareholder walked out of where, full of spring breeze, so unhappy, and the British Airways senior management who came out with him was also full of happiness, it seems that our previous speculation about the entrusting party to find Ding Yuan's friend is just a false alarm. I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and suddenly I heard the shareholder talking to the bank executive next to him about the future cooperation. Future cooperation? I had a big question mark in my mind, and I was about to come up with some ideas.
Oh deliberately delayed for some time, and pretended to confirm with the investment manager the filling in of the information I was injured, and was told that I needed to go to the company to register before I came here to verify the information. After spending some time, the senior management of the branch happened to come from outside, and said with a proud face that there would be a large amount of money in the account in a few weeks to help the performance. Big payouts? Thinking of the 'future cooperation' I just heard, I can't help but think of the 7 million yuan in Dingyuan's private account, it seems that Wei Kai's guess is not wrong, they have already planned how to make it 'easy' for the police to help them find the disappeared funds, and the way to deal with it afterwards, but it was just unfortunate that we found it. It seems that they will deposit this money, or part of it, into this bank, but judging by the smiles on the faces of the bank reception staff, it seems that it is probably a full deposit.
sent a message to Wei Kai, but after determining that the original friend was very safe, he temporarily asked Wei Kai to stay still and wait for my news. Taking Ding Yuan's friend away directly in complete safety is bound to make him nervous, and it is not certain whether he will know everything when the time comes. However, due to too many uncertainties, we do not plan to leave the bank this time.
I glanced at my watch, it was already the time when the bank was closed, but there were still three hours before the time we met, and it was about an hour's drive from the location set in our group, given that Ding Yuan's friend was not in the habit of driving, and pushed forward for another half an hour, Ding Yuan's friend should have left work at about 6 o'clock. There was still an hour to go, but there was really nowhere to hide myself, so I simply went to the basement floor to meet Wei Kai.
I found an unmonitored place in the garage on the basement floor, huddled behind one, and observed the movement of the two safety exits. Occasionally go to a corridor, under the pretext of going to the bathroom, to confirm that Ding Yuan's friend is still in the office.
After crying happily for more than an hour, I saw Ding Yuan's friend running out of the computer room in a panic, looking at the watch in his hand while running.
"For, you're Zhang Ming, right?" Weikai blocked his way, "I'm Peter, I heard you are looking for me today?" ”
Zhang Ming was obviously taken aback, but he quickly reacted to the identity of the person who blocked her way, although he was taken aback by the unenlightened ruffian's attitude, but he quickly sorted out his expression and nodded at Wei Kai: "That's right, I want to talk to you about you cooperating with my girlfriend." Zhang Ming's elevation did not have an advantage, but when he mentioned his girlfriend, he suddenly straightened his waist and said with the momentum of never losing to Wei Kai. (To be continued.) )
