At the Kyoto Police Department's press conference, the policeman who read Narita Yamaguchi's suicide note remained unresponsive for several minutes.
The scene was also quiet, and then suddenly became noisy.
"… What exactly is going on?!"
"Didn't you say that you were forced to death by a certain big country in the east?"
"...Why are you called the scapegoat again? Is there anyone behind the scenes?"
The reporters present were talking a lot, and they couldn't stand this amazing turn of events.
The police officials on the stage were also sweating profusely and kept standing up and bowing to express their apologies to everyone.
The person sitting at the far end who unconsciously typed Morse code with his fingers quietly stepped back and retreated from the podium.
"Mr. Director, we saw many people on the Internet saying that Narita-kun was murdered. Is this true?"
"... If he was murdered, what's the deal with this suicide note?!"
The policeman on the podium nodded hastily and said, "This suicide note is a forgery! It's a forgery! Narita-kun probably didn't commit suicide! It was murder!"
"Yes, yes! Narita-kun was murdered! This suicide note is fake!"
"Since the suicide note is fake, then the scapegoat is nonsense." The director of the police department finally brought the topic to an end. He breathed a sigh of relief and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"This is not necessarily true. It is possible to be murdered as a scapegoat." A reporter from China said with a smile.
"Are you stupid? You've already been murdered, why would you write a suicide note?" The reporter next to him rolled his eyes and said with disdain.
The reporter from China was not angry either. He held up his camera and microphone to the rostrum and said nonchalantly: "Maybe he wrote the suicide note because he felt in danger, but he was murdered before he could commit suicide. Is there such a thing?" possible?"
“…”
It's not impossible, but no matter how you look at it, it's weird.
Including this press conference of the police, there is a tone of "arrangement".
But most reporters kept silent and did not raise this question.
After all, everyone came together mainly to slap a certain big country in the east in the face. Now that a big country in the east has failed to slap in the face, they are all slapped in the face. Everyone wants to forget this matter quickly, and don't cause too much trouble on the Internet. Lots of waves.
But the Internet has its own memory, which cannot be controlled by a few major news media.
So the news of "false suicide note" and "Narita-kun was murdered" once again flooded the social media.
The wave caused by this really made some Ma Zai feel sad, and some actually surrendered or even reported it.
…
The headquarters of the Special Operations Department of the Chinese Empire has received a lot of intelligence from Japan these days.
The field staff summarized the information and then encrypted it and transmitted it back using the Nandou satellite communication system.
In less than five minutes, it was placed on Huo Shaoheng's desk.
He looked at the news coming back one after another and found that these clues finally pointed to an organization.
Carlyle International LLC's Pacific Rim private equity fund.
Carlyle is an investment bank headquartered in the United States but registered in the Cayman Islands.
Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund is an investment portfolio of this investment bank.
This kind of fund is not sold to the public and only provides purchasing rights to high-net-worth individuals.
Huo Shaoheng looked at the name of this fund and felt it looked familiar.
Isn't this the private equity fund that once took advantage of the situation to acquire the Hong Group? !
After thinking for a while, Huo Shaoheng called Zhao Liangze in and said, "Oze, give me a report on Carlyle International Investment Co., Ltd., especially its Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund. You must investigate it carefully."
Zhao Liangze took the task and returned to his office, where he began to discuss with his subordinates how to divide work and cooperate.
Huo Shaoheng sat in the office, turned off the lights, only turned on the projection screen on the opposite wall, and began to draw a mind set map.
On the projection screen, he first wrote Narita Yamaguchi's name in the middle.
Then from his name, many parabolas were generated, connecting to other names.
What connects these seemingly unrelated individuals is the Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund!
Because all the money given to these people comes from this private equity fund.
Including Narita Pass.
He went to the Netherlands in an attempt to use the opportunity of provoking Gu Nianzhi to discredit China. All the funds used were provided by Pacific Rim private equity funds.
The actions of this private equity fund were originally very secretive, and most of the time transactions were made in cash.
Originally, outsiders couldn't find out. Even if they hacked into the internal computers of this private equity fund in the Pacific Rim, they might not be able to find any clues.
But I couldn't stand it. Gu Nianzhi's speech was so inflammatory that it actually encouraged many people behind the scenes related to Narita Yamaguchi to surrender and report.
It was precisely because of the surrender reports of these little people that the Pacific Rim private equity fund gradually surfaced.
But in Japan, these news have been suppressed by a comprehensive blockade.
The Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund, which is dominated by American capital, is still a pure white lotus and is most loved by Japanese people who admire beauty.
Huo Shaoheng was able to get the news only because of China's powerful field personnel.
But looking at the Pacific Rim private equity funds pointed to on the voting screen, Huo Shaoheng still didn't understand.
Why is this private equity fund doing this
If he hadn't noticed before, he could see it now.
The recent things this private equity fund has done are all related to Gu Nianzhi.
It couldn't be said that it was directed at her, but it was looming around her, sometimes near and sometimes far away.
Huo Shaoheng pondered for a while, put away the information, and without turning on the lights, he took the car keys and left the office, going to the Parliament Building to pick up Gu Nianzhi from get off work.
After going out, he found that it was only six o'clock. Gu Nianzhi was quite busy now and had not gotten off work before seven o'clock.
Huo Shaoheng thought for a while and drove to Song Jinning's house first, wanting to talk to Lu Jin first.
Arriving at the door of Song Jinning's apartment, Huo Shaoheng rang the doorbell, but Lu Yuan came to open the door.
Huo Shaoheng was a little surprised, but he didn't show it. He smiled and said, "Mr. Lu didn't go out today?"
"I've been running around outside all day, picked out the company's office building, and just signed the lease." Lu Yuan said with a smile, "I'm about to make dinner, are you here to help me?"
Huo Shaoheng thanked Bu Min. He actually didn't like cooking, but Gu Nianzhi liked to eat, so he was willing to cook it for her.
Other times, he would rather eat in the canteen than cook.
Unlike Lu Yuan, he is truly interested in cooking.
"I still have something to do to find Professor Lu. You go ahead and help me after I finish talking to Professor Lu." Huo Shaoheng was perfunctory and had already crossed Lu Yuan and went straight to Lu Jing.
Lu Jin had just returned from the Institute of High Energy Physics and was tinkering with computer programs in his room.
Huo Shaoheng knocked on his door, "Professor Lu."
Lu Jin heard Huo Shaoheng's voice, pursed his lips, turned around and said with a smile: "Shao Heng, you are here, where are you reading?"
Huo Shaoheng: "..."
He didn't care, walked in calmly, sat at the desk near Lu, and said, "Are you familiar with the old lady of the Hong Group?"
Lu Jin raised his eyebrows, "Why did you remember to ask Mrs. Hong? I'm not familiar with her, but Boss Lu is more familiar with her."
Huo Shaoheng: "..."
He nodded, stood up and said, "Then I'll ask Mr. Lu."
Then they exchanged some pleasantries and asked Lu Jin what experiments he was doing recently.
Lu Jin didn't even look back, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you don't understand even after I tell you, so don't waste your time with me. Go find Boss Lu. He has a good temper and talks a lot of nonsense. Most popular among ignorant women and children."
Huo Shaoheng: "..."
He really couldn't accept this, and he also felt that it was not easy for Lu Yuan to work with someone like Lu Jin in the past eighteen years.
But when he walked into the kitchen, Lu Yuan looked back at him, smiled, and said teasingly: "... I told you to help me a long time ago, but you still refused. You deserve this detour."
Huo Shaoheng had no sympathy for Lu Yuan at all.
He deserved to work with Lu Jin for these eighteen years.
Huo Shaoheng walked in without looking away, without any intention of helping, and asked calmly: "Mr. Lu, are you familiar with Mrs. Hong?"
"... It's okay. Her Hong Group is currently being reorganized under the guidance of our Lu Group, and then continues to seek to be listed overseas."
Huo Shaoheng: "..."
