FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C., the office of Investigation Group 13.

The office area was a little busy, and several people were sorting out their belongings to prepare for the interrogation work that was waiting for the next day, and Lacey came to Chenelle's side with the folder and asked:

"I just heard that Osmond was hit by a car?"

Winslow, Michelle, and Mona all turned their attention to this place.

"Hmm."

Chenelle nodded:

"People are being resuscitated in the hospital."

"Looks like someone is ready to kill it."

Lacey pursed her lips, suddenly remembered something, and asked:

"Are we going to investigate this car accident later?"

Chenelle spread her hands to show that she didn't know, and Mona was just about to speak, when Luo An suddenly pushed open the door of the office area and walked in.

Hearing Lacey's inquiry, Roan, who had just returned from Vereneth's office, replied:

"We don't need to investigate that car accident."

The detectives present were a little surprised, and Luo An took off his coat and put it aside, explaining:

"The driver behind the crash, who has been identified as a buyer of Osmond's 17% annual return fund."

Winslow and the others looked at each other, and Lacey was a little surprised:

"Not a mouthful?"

Luo An handed the folder in his hand to everyone and explained:

"The SEC, for its part, has completed its review of Osmond's fund and determined that it was a Ponzi scheme.

The possibility of extermination is not ruled out, but the current investigation results show that the car accident is more like revenge. ”

The owner of a chain of stores who hired drivers to cause the crash spent nearly $10 million to buy Osmond's fund.

Winslow and Chenelle looked at each other as they looked at the documents in their hands, and Luo An picked up the coffee and took a sip and said:

"The owner of the chain recognized the Ponzi scheme.

But he thinks that at least he will not lose, even if the scam fails in the end, he can still get his principal back.

But Osmond's use of the money, as I had guessed before, was that he didn't keep playing the ordinary Ponzi scheme, but invested the money in the drug research and development of pharmaceutical companies. ”

Lacey suddenly realized:

"That is, all that money is spent?"

"I didn't spend it all, I just used a large part of it."

Luo An put down the coffee cup and said lightly:

"The rest of the money simply can't make up for the buyers who bought the fund, and there is a huge deficit in it.

Some people invest tens of millions of dollars, but in the end, they can only get back a few million. ”

Mona closed the folder, sneered, and concluded:

"It's a game of drumming and passing flowers, and these buyers think they're going to end up with an unlucky guy who goes to jail and Osmond makes a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, what Osmond coveted was only their principal. ”

Winslow tossed the file aside and smiled disdainfully, Chenille and Lacey scoffed, and Michelle looked unchanged and bowed her head to organize her belongings, she had worked in Washington, D.C. for many years, and knew one thing deeply:

In the Federation, the richer the person, the more greedy they are.

Luo An smiled, took the information handed by Michelle, and said with a smile:

"The interrogation began, and the people were caught, but we haven't figured out why Knockwick was killed."

Chenelle nodded, picked up the notebook, and walked with Roan to the interrogation room.

The first person to start interrogating Roan was Lewis, the owner of the security company.

There was indeed some evidence in the laptop that Lewis was in a hurry to destroy during the previous arrest, and Mona didn't have much effort to retrieve the information.

When the evidence was overwhelming, Lewis Coote quickly confessed, signed a basic confession agreement, and then confessed that he had killed Knockwick Bragg.

But Lewis was only taking the money and didn't know why he wanted to kill Nokvik, so Roan and Chenelle went into another interrogation room next to it.

In interrogation room 2, a white woman with long burgundy hair, gold-threaded eyes, and a white lady's suit sat in a chair with her head bowed, her hands handcuffed to the interrogation table, and she did not say a word.

Chenelle walked in with the interrogator first, and sat across the interrogation table with a notebook and a blank face.

"Good afternoon, Lady Vivina."

It took a while for Roan to walk into the room with two cups of coffee, put one of them in front of Vivina, and said with a smile:

"This is the coffee beans that my chief just gave me, they taste very good, you can taste them."

“……”

Vivina glanced up at Luo An, was silent for a few seconds, picked up the coffee and took a sip, and then asked in a slightly hoarse voice:

"How's the company doing?"

"Not good."

Luo An picked up the coffee in his hand and tasted it, and replied with a smile:

"The boss of your company, Mr. Osmond accidentally got into a car accident and is still in the operating room, and the situation does not seem to be very good."

After another long silence, Luo An finished his coffee and said lightly:

"Ms. Vivina, Lewis has already explained everything, and silence won't solve the problem, don't you think?"

Hearing this, Vivina slowly raised her head and asked expressionlessly:

"What do you want to know?"

"The reason for hiring a murderer."

"That guy stole my stuff."

Vivina leaned back and cocked Erlang's legs, sneered, and said:

"The Bible says, Thou shalt not steal, for he who steals deserves to be killed."

"I didn't expect Ms. Vivina, as a scientist, to believe in religion."

Roan smiled, put the coffee cup aside, picked up four documents from Chenelle's side, slowly pushed them in front of Vivina, and asked with a smile:

"Ms. Vivina, the one on the left is a test report on the drug you have researched from the laboratory that Nuokvik paid for himself, and it shows that your drug has almost no effect.

The two in the middle are the test reports that my agents found on the desk of your research laboratory and from the company's owner, Osmond.

It shows that your drug is very effective, but it is not stable enough to be produced in large quantities.

The one on the right, the test report that my agents found in the research lab, is not on the desk, but in your safe.

The content of this test report is actually the same as the content of the test report made by Novik, which also shows that your drug has almost no effect. ”

Looking at the three test reports in front of her, Vivina's face was gloomy, and Luo An said with a smile:

"Ms. Vivina, the Bible seems to say that lying is also a sin."

"Damn it!"

Luo An's voice fell, and Vivina suddenly shouted with anger on her face:

"I'm not lying! There is no problem with my research direction! The current medicine is just a transitional period, just give me a little more time, I can definitely overcome the difficulties! ”

Looking at Vivina, who was so angry that her face was flushed, Roan smiled and didn't argue with her about science:

"But your report to Osmond is all false."

"It's not fake! I did! It's not fake! ”

Vivina clenched her hands into fists and knocked on the interrogation table repeatedly, and said excitedly:

"That's my projected research! It's just that there are still some technical bottlenecks now, and I'm leading people to overcome them, and it's not fake! ”

“……”

Chenelle looked at Vivina speechlessly, and Roan grinned and put away the test report.

When Mona and the others went to arrest Vivina, they found two different drugs in the research laboratory.

One is an ineffective drug stolen by Nuokvik, and the other is an effective drug.

But according to the test, the effective drugs are some anti-cancer drugs on the market, which do not add more nutrients, and Vivina has been using them to deceive Osmond.

Knockwick steals the real medicine from the lab, and Vivina, fearing that the medicine is ineffective, sends someone to kill him.

"One plays a Ponzi scheme and cheats money from others; One wants to have money to do research, and in order to reassure the other party, he not only painstakingly plans to get fake drugs, but also plays poker with the other party and his good friends......"

After the interrogation, Chenelle, who learned the truth, had a strange look in her eyes, and as soon as she walked out of the interrogation room, Lacey came over:

"Roan, Vereneth told you to come to her office."
