Being A Detective in The World of Film and Television

Chapter 398: Wolf's Little Secret

Views:

Cosmic Cube and Chris will form a new company to be responsible for mining and operating the gold mine.

Cosmic Cube Company will invest a sum of money in installments to resume operations at the Fanrong Town gold mine, which will be considered as capital investment and will hold a 25% stake.

Elizabeth's mother, Sheriff Samantha, also put in a sum of money, accounting for 5% of the shares.

The rest is Chris's share.

That's the general situation, and Ginny was the one who discussed more details.

She is better at contractual matters than Chris and won't suffer any loss.

Chris had no reason to hesitate.

The mine he owned had long been exhausted, but it was his father's lifelong career, so he didn't just close it down.

Chris couldn't even come up with the money to resume work. If he didn't accept the investment, even if the mine really contained new mineral veins, he would have to watch it go bankrupt.

Now that Luke had expressed interest and was willing to take the risk, there was no way he could refuse.

Where did Samantha get the money? Of course, it was a low-interest loan from Cosmic Cube.

Luke didn't care how Elizabeth got her mother Samantha to agree to the loan.

But from now on, Samantha became the supervisor of the new company.

Luke has also decided on a new place for Bobby Max, the public relations manager.

Since there is no movement at Google, Bobby will go to a small town in Arizona to dig for gold.

In other words, to spy on others digging for gold.

The location of the new ore vein is the spider nest where Luke rescued Gladys. Luke has many miscellaneous abilities in his mind, and he can roughly identify things like gold ore.

Therefore, when he discovered that there was something strange about the ore in a corner of the spider's nest, he took back that small piece of ore and tested it himself with instruments.

As for the gold ore he brought out, its grade was about 15 grams of gold per ton, which was definitely a super rich ore.

Of course, it is possible that Luke got a piece of ore with the highest gold content, and the overall gold content is not that high.

But according to historical records, the gold mine of Chris's family has a gold content of seven grams per ton, which is still considerable.

Moreover, this mine mainly contains gold, silver and copper, and the other two types of ores can also be sold for money after being mined.

However, investing in this gold mine was just a casual move, and he didn't have the time to squat and mine.

He has no interest in business and no talent for it, so naturally he won't work hard in this area.

As long as I can make a small profit from this gold mine, that's enough.

After briefly talking with Ginny about the gold mine, the two began to discuss official business formally. As soon as they started discussing, they found that there were more new problems and knowledge that needed to be studied.

The next morning, Luke pulled secretary Ginny aside to discuss the issue again before leaving the hotel satisfied.

By the time he drove home he had completely put Ginny and the gold mine out of his mind and was thinking about something else.

There is something wrong with this guy Wolf Esworth.

Last night after Ginny went to sleep, he sneaked out of the hotel again and found a gang he had been spying on for a long time.

He "heard" some interesting information from a middle or senior level member of the gang.

Wolf-Aisworth has a hidden hobby, which is to often find some part-time female college students through them.

The gang's minions were not aware of this, and only the two middle and high-level people who handled the matter knew Wolf's identity. Some female college students would disappear soon.

In addition, Wolf has always had a close relationship with his nephew Dylan and is a frequent visitor to his nephew's luxury sports car club Prime-Exotic.

After returning home and picking up Selena, they went to the police station.

Sonya came over immediately when she saw the two men arrive.

Luke looked at her expression and asked, "What is it?"

Sonya: "Forensic doctor Scorsese has some new discoveries, come and take a look."

Luke has no objection.

The three of them went to Sonya's desk and watched her take out a photo from the file: "Scorsese found some substance on the soles of the pajama girl's feet. It was not asphalt paint or mud, but a special plant leaf."

Luke hummed.

Sonya: "This plant is an expensive ornamental plant. It's probably called something..."

She flipped through the files on the side, ran her finger over a line of words, and said, "Red, Dawn, Full Moon, Maple. When I was looking for information about Wolf, I happened to see this."

She clicked on a picture on the computer. "This is Wolfe-Aisworth's mansion. He often holds banquets there. Notice this place."

Luke narrowed his eyes and watched Sonya move the mouse a few times and then zoom in on the location.

There, on both sides of the steps outside the mansion, there are two small plants with bright red colors, about one and a half to two meters tall.

"Is this the Red Dawn Maple?" he asked.

Sonya nodded. "This is a neon red maple, a rare special cultivar, and it is extremely rare here. Moreover, this mansion is on the coast of Highway 1, just a few kilometers away from Dylan Elsworth's villa."

Luke pondered: "That means the sleepy girl who was hit and killed was not far from Wolf-Aisworth's mansion?"

"It's closer to the scene of the incident, only a few hundred meters away." At this point, Sonya looked around and lowered her voice: "Scorsese also searched the archives for unsolved cases in the past two years. He found that this red maple was found on the victims of three other cases, all of which were unsolved. The body of one of the victims was found on a construction site under the name of Wolf's new company."

Luke raised an eyebrow: "Is he that stupid?"

Sonya: "... Maybe he himself doesn't even remember where he dumped the body? After all, it's not a smart idea to leave a person dead on a tree by the roadside without even taking the car away, right?"

Luke smiled and nodded: "Yeah, he's rich."

After thinking for a while, he said, "Don't investigate this matter any further, understand?"

Sonya: “You…”

Luke shrugged. "Someone might be interested in Wolf Ailsworth's peculiarities, but it's not us."

Sonya stared at him and nodded silently.

Luke took the information and went to find Elsa.

A moment later, Elsa went to find Dustin with the file.

Luke returned to the table and made an OK gesture to Sonya.

Sonya nodded and went back to work.

She wouldn't think about any credit or anything like that. If she messed with the Esworth family, nothing good might happen to her.

By doing this, Luke completely removed her from the case and prevented her from being retaliated by the Esworth family.

And the last time Sonya inexplicably helped intercept tens of millions of dollars in stolen money, Dustin made it clear that she had made a contribution.

How could Sonya be dissatisfied
