Antonis is so shameless in his cheating.
In the next few days, Serif came here several times without giving up, but unfortunately, there was always no progress.
… Antonis insists he remembers nothing. It doesn't matter whether you are acting playfully or coercing, he will treat you as the background... no, just the air.
In terms of hand speed, Serifu couldn't beat Su Zheng. When it comes to electronic technology, Antonis can crush him to death in minutes with one finger. In terms of strategic planning... Brother Han smiled lightly, and Serif suddenly ran out of ideas.
So in the unfavorable situation of having no advantage and being on the road, and even worse, having a criminal record in the hands of the opponent, Serifo could hardly use any means and could only hope that Antonis would suddenly one day change idea…
Although Serifu had been reminded by Ye Shuang before that he could use the help of another party, the excitement only lasted for a moment. Afterwards, he went back and thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this choice was too imprudent.
Serif, who is already a well-known thief, has attracted a lot of attention, and there are countless people outside who are eager to find out his weaknesses. The reason Serif is able to be so arrogant is simply because he has never been caught.
If you have relatives, everything will become completely different.
If he surrenders to the FBI in order to find Antonis, this is at best a deal between Serif and the other party.
But if he surrendered in order to find his relatives, it would be equivalent to him personally handing the clue into the hands of others... And more importantly, after he became famous, Serifu would never believe that the FBI did not find him. The investigation of personal information was thorough.
Although I don’t know why the news about the three sisters and biological father has not been exposed... maybe someone helped to cover it up, or maybe his biological mother was young and frivolous at the time, and there was a marriage in name but no registration procedures. In other words, country C It can also be called unmatched adultery or illegal prostitution... Anyway, since the intelligence department has never found out that Serif has a father and three sisters before, then presumably even if he made a request, this result would be Nothing will change.
So the key breakthrough point can only be with Antonis.
Serif had nothing to do with him.
…
"Really don't remember?"
Brother Shuang had nothing to do with Antonis, so he could only run back to ask questions after changing his identity as Sister Shuang. He pretended to have just listened to someone relaying the gossip, and he seemed to be very interested in grabbing Antonis at the next door and was about to go out to fool around. of Antonis.
Antonis blinked, and after he saw clearly who was holding him, a big smile spread out, and he gave him a bear hug: "Xiaoshuang, I miss you so much!"
"Don't make trouble." Shuangmei's small arms easily tore open the tall golden hair, and asked seriously: "I've also heard about Serifu. Do you really not remember it or are you pretending not to remember it? I was listening to Howard in France. Speaking of which, the incident in Kansas seemed to be quite a big deal three years ago, so this shouldn’t be a small matter like just having a quarrel with someone on the street, right?!”
Antonis puffed up his cheeks in frustration: "I really don't remember."
“…”
"Okay, actually remember a little bit." Seeing Ye Shuang's obviously disbelieving look, Antonis decisively changed his words without even a slight hesitation, and confidently admitted that he was lying: "But what does that thief's personal affairs have to do with me? Those people are not simple."
The corners of Ye Shuang's mouth twitched, and after a long while, she helplessly raised her forehead: "Since you have been deceived, you must not be exposed in the future. Well, just pretend that you really don't remember."
Serif's help is not that necessary, so even if it seems selfish, Ye Shuang doesn't want to force Antonis for the sake of Serif, whose position is currently unclear. To describe it more bluntly and utilitarianly, under the premise that Antonis has already explained that there will be trouble, she chooses to stand with Serifor or Antonis. It is simply a matter of no need to think about it.
Find your own father! Anyway, if a clue appears once, it will appear a second time. It may not mean that there is no other hope without Antonis.
Besides, it’s not certain whether getting her back is a good thing. Beautiful fantasy and reality are two different things.
What if Serif's biological father has various bad habits? What if the other person has a great personality and drags down his family? What if the three sisters are all vulgar women who like to be mean-spirited and picky
Since Sai's mother would divorce Sai's father back then, there is always a reason for divorce. Not to mention that the former couple broke up completely for unknown reasons, so that the biological son had to wait until his mother got sick before he found out that he actually had a biological father... Maybe it was because Sai's mother really couldn't stand Sai. It’s not necessarily true that Dad’s is vulgar.
After Hua Xuan decisively decided to continue hiding Serifu, Ye Shuang had no psychological burden and pretended that she had not heard what Antonis had just said: "Remember, don't talk back when others ask you in the future, otherwise you will do something wrong." If it doesn’t go well, we will really break up.”
After another uneasy warning, Ye Shuang declared in a more serious tone: "It's easy to talk about other things, but I think if Brother Han or other girls ask you, you might just say it without taking it seriously... Well, Brother Han has Properly speaking, it probably won’t have any impact if you know it, so the key is not to play into the American trap.”
"I'm very principled." Antonis said aggrievedly: "Han will only record these things, and then use them as leverage to make me do hard work for him. I won't tell other women, so Xiaoshuang is the only one who knows .”
"Haha..." Such an honor feels like nothing to be proud of.
Ye Shuangpi was smiling. After getting the answer that she had been curious about, she changed hands and released Antonis. No matter whether he wanted to go out and fool around or wander around, she still had to go out.
…
"My uncle was sidelined."
Xu Jian hurried over to keep the appointment, and her first words after sitting down made Ye Shuang feel the fantasy of this world.
"Uh..." Ye Shuang blinked, and after a moment of recovery, he made the appropriate reaction: "Can you explain the details?"
Xu Jian nodded: "I was going to tell you this."
After ordering what she wanted from the receptionist and waiting for the refreshments to be served, Xu Jian took advantage of this time to collect her thoughts, played with the tea cup and pondered for a long time: "Things are a little sudden, and I haven't been exposed to the above situation at all. But it seems that my uncle is not mentally prepared... I will simply talk about the current situation. Xihua Group was originally a stronghold for the organization to develop in our country. Its function is to construct a capital flow network for money laundering, so my uncle and several others The person in charge has always been in contact with the organization, such as fund transfer or signing of turnover contracts."
"But a month ago, my uncle suddenly lost contact with the middleman." Xu Jian spoke very slowly, as if every word was filled with caution and confusion. He was not only explaining the situation to Ye Shuang, but also himself. Trying to figure out the reason: "Originally, this anomaly has not been noticed. After all, there are FIUs in every country. Occasionally, when the capital flow is too large or abnormal, some small tails will be caught in the organization. At this time It is common for intermediaries to disappear and hide, only to reappear after the limelight has passed, or simply change the contact person.”
"But this situation usually lasts for a week or two at most..." Xu Jian frowned: "After all, members who can join this kind of organization will definitely have a strong sense of interests, and their outlook on life... ahem!"
It seemed that she suddenly remembered that her uncle was also among the "organization members". Xu Jian hurriedly put down the topic and coughed awkwardly twice. After taking a sip of tea, she jumped away from this sensitive comment and continued: "Anyway, if there is no intermediary supervision and contact for a long time, who will I don’t know if the people in charge of each stronghold will do anything out of control.”
"In other words, your uncle's contact has not appeared for a long time?" Ye Shuang said with a big head.
"Well, it feels like our network has been abandoned." Xu Jian smiled bitterly: "My uncle is also very confused now. On the one hand, he is worried that something has happened when his contacts disappear, but he always feels that he will be gone the next second. He will be caught and put in jail. On the other hand, if something happens to the contact person, he might be able to pick up the Xihua Group for free... "
Ye Shuang sympathized: "You just have a thief's heart but not the courage, right? At the same time, you want others to appear so that you can feel at ease, but at the same time, you feel that it would be cool if you could really be the master of the house... But to be honest, your uncle really can't control that at his level. The accounts of a large group, not to mention the well-run accounts on the surface of this group, are all just a sham, and just laundering and establishing real sales channels is a big problem."
"I can't figure out how my uncle could be so..." Xu Jian distressedly tried to find a less negative comment: "Naive?"
Ye Shuang sighed: "What your uncle did was originally illegal. He was the boss of Xihua Group in name only, but in fact he was just a moving target... Hmm, but what you said about the stronghold being abandoned is worth paying attention to, right? Well, then something really went wrong with the organization.”
Xu Jian was puzzled: "What are you doing with your phone?"
"Just ask... hello! Mr. Howard, I just have something to ask you..."
Ye Shuang dialed the number and asked directly. After two sentences, Xu Jian, who didn't know the mystery of the call, suddenly broke into sweat because he clearly heard Ye Shuang mention "your organization" on the phone. words, and it sounds like the person on the other end of the phone is still the French general agent...
Xu Jian wiped his hands from a cold sweat. Every time he thought he knew Ye Shuang well enough, the other party would always have the ability to refresh his understanding.
I originally thought that what Ye Shuang meant by "paying attention" was to call someone like Antonis and ask him to track down the information. Unexpectedly, his first girlfriend was more tough than he thought, and she stabbed someone higher than his uncle with just one blow... As one of the important economic countries in Europe, France has been an ideal place for active money laundering since its early days. It is conceivable that the person in charge there and the person in charge of the newly developed market in country C are definitely not on the same level.
"Hahaha, don't say that." Ye Shuang didn't pay attention to Xu Jian's complicated face and mood at all. He was busy talking to Howard with a calm expression: "What do you mean by not betraying your own organization? When you were in France, you clearly Just like I want to secretly betray you... By the way, Antonis helps encrypt my mobile phone, so no one will eavesdrop on it, so don’t worry."
"It's not because I'm afraid of people eavesdropping." The fat man on the other side had a habit of speaking harshly, and then lazily asked: "I've said it before, I'm not hostile to you. And I admit, I do hope that we The two can help and benefit each other in the future. But all this has a prerequisite... Have you found the answer to those three tips? If you don't understand anything, just pretend that we have never been in contact. I don't need someone to hold you back. alliance."
"Hahaha… "
Ye Shuang laughed and cursed secretly. She had a stupid answer. She had just returned to China a few days ago, and after initially discussing some ideas with Han Chu, she quickly asked Antonis to investigate the doubts.
But after all, it was an organization 40 years ago, and it will take time to trace the origins and find decisive clues. Antonis has only been checking for a few days so far. How could he figure out the cards left by Howard so quickly
At the moment of negotiation, Ye Shuang would certainly not be able to honestly confess these situations.
Regardless of whether Antonis confirmed it or not, she could only bite the bullet and throw out her previous reasoning as fact... Anyway, even if the final facts were wrong, wouldn't she be allowed to deceive
"Of course I already know the current situation." In an instant, Ye Shuang changed his tone to a determined tone, and spoke calmly with an unquestionable look: "Cynthia is your mother, but she is also the earliest founder of the money laundering organization...or At least one of the core members."
After quickly fixing all the clues and deduced conclusions, Ye Shuang boldly imagined the most reasonable possibility, but said words that could not be refuted in a voice that seemed to have been verified, as if she was not reasoning, but had already mastered it. Certain facts are the same.
After the first conclusion was released, I heard Howard's breathing pause for a moment on the other side of the phone... Such a small sound may be difficult for others to detect, but it was enough for Ye Shuang... It was later verified that Howard had been After being attracted by her words and making sure that the other party had no intention of refuting, Ye Shuang breathed a sigh of relief and continued with more confidence:
"I'm right, Mr. Howard. If your mother wasn't deeply involved, there would be no need for you to tell me this clue. And if you follow this line of investigation, with Antonis here, many things will be easy to find. It came to the surface.”
Taking out the long-unloaded movie queen's skills and equipment from his pocket, Ye Shuang paid attention to the breathing rate of the opponent while fooling around, so as to judge the accuracy of his words at any time, so as to adjust the conclusion in time: "The Egmont Organization and you are now There is a deep connection between the money laundering organization..."
Breathing slowed down, with a cautious attitude... "Or more accurately, they should have been together. Egmont was founded in 1995, and your organization existed 40 years ago... The hints you gave are already very It was obvious, so we quickly found out that the money laundering organization was actually the predecessor of Egmont."
The breath on the other side of the phone was chaotic for a moment, and then Ye Shuang heard the other party's positive affirmation for the first time: "Very good results. I didn't expect that Antonis's ability was stronger than I expected. I thought you were at least as good as It will take a month or so to find this out.”
"..." No, actually your estimated time is quite correct. Antonis is really not that perverted. According to Antonis's own estimation, it would take about a month to find the real answer among so many scattered and numerous clues that are mixed with truth and falsehood.
Ye Shuang silently swallowed her bitter tears. She was just trying to catch a duck, but she actually had some evidence.
"Your mother seems to have passed away five years before Egmont was founded?" After waiting for a while but not waiting for Howard's next content, Ye Shuang thought for a while, although it was a bit rude, but still had to test: "There was no such thing in 1990." What a big deal, but what connects the past and the future is that 1989 was the founding time of FATE, and 1995 was the founding time of the Egmont Alliance... Both of them are financial organizations to combat money laundering, but one is official and the other is unofficial."
"First of all, I have to confess. What follows is a conclusion that has not yet been confirmed. It is just my own reasoning." Ye Shuang frowned and paused: "Money laundering organizations and anti-money laundering organizations are mutually beneficial and negative. No matter what you want to carry out, The common denominator of any kind of work is to have sufficient financial channels... Suppose your current organization was originally righteous, but later separated a new Egmont, does that mean that there are senior leaders in the organization who have betrayed the original organization? belief?"
After waiting for a while and not hearing Howard's rebuttal, Ye Shuang bit the bullet and continued: "Assuming the previous reasoning is true, then subverting the original positive organization is undoubtedly tantamount to usurping power. Who is the winner now? There is no doubt about it, so what will happen to the losers, that is, the high-level officials who were purged?”
Should you stick to your beliefs and rebuild the organization you want, or will you be purged directly after that failure
Ye Shuang was silent for a while, then asked cautiously: "... Howard, is your mother's death related to your current organization?"
The breathing on the other side of the phone was obviously out of sync. Just when Ye Shuang thought the other party wouldn't answer, he heard Howard's deep and lazy voice on the other side: "Ah, I can hear it now. In fact, you No evidence was found, right?"
Damn it, is this issue the main point now
Ye Shuang was speechless: "...Actually, I think the result is what matters. We are not serious people anyway. Sometimes just having suspicion is enough. There is no need to find evidence to convict someone."
"That's right." Howard simply announced his new discovery, but he didn't mean to hold on to it: "It seems that Antonis' abilities are still within the scope of what I know... Well, there is really no need to confirm these. Evidence, I admit you guessed it right.”
As if taking advantage of Wai Lou's few words to adjust his mood, Howard's tone soon returned to its original despondency: "Since FATE is mentioned, you must have guessed that FATE was founded in 1989. My mother was involved, but after all, there were many concerns about official things, so she wanted to re-establish an anti-financial crime organization like before... Of course, she passed away in 1990. The reason was of course not simple, but we couldn't find out. There were no suspects or evidence for the truth at that time. The Egmont Alliance in 1995 was formed by someone my mother knew, who was also one of the previous high-level leaders, and I was considered an initial participant in Egmont."
"Spy?" Ye Shuangxiao whistled: "Being humiliated and lurking in the organization of the enemy who killed your mother, you have been working hard for twenty years just to wait for the opportunity to take revenge... It sounds quite touching."
"Endure hardship?" Howard repeated in a low voice, with a sense of cruelty in his lazy voice, as if he had endured a bit of perversion: "It's not endurance, for me it should be enjoyment... FATE once sent me an invitation, because Regarding my mother’s relationship, they even promised me that they would help me find out the truth behind my mother’s death, but I refused.”
"The law does not represent justice, only fairness. But what I want is not fairness, but revenge." Howard sighed: "I am almost fifty years old, have a wife and two lovely children, maybe many people I feel that my emotions should be calmed down by the peaceful days. But in fact, those hatreds have never left my heart... In the past twenty years, I have successfully made those people lose their loved ones, sometimes Their children are sometimes their lovers, some are taken away by hostile forces, some are overdosed on drugs, and some are taken away by the police... Since I have lived in such pain, how can they escape? past?"
"I want these people to lose little by little. Only when I see these people lose something will I feel happy. Since they like money so much, then I will let them have countless money... In addition to these, there is no other superfluous They can’t even imagine the same thing.”
Listening to the slow talk on the other side of the phone, still in a careless and lazy voice, still in an ordinary tone, Ye Shuang couldn't help but shudder.
Oh shit! Forget that this person is the plot designer!
A perfect perverted criminal!
…
By the end of the phone call, Ye Shuang was basically listening to Howard's analysis of abnormal psychology, but Xu Jian couldn't hear what was being said on the other side. So I could only watch inexplicably as Ye Shuang's expression became weirder and more complicated.
After finally waiting for Ye Shuang to hang up the phone and pick up the tea cup, Xu Jian was finally able to ask: "What's wrong?"
"...I suddenly wondered if it was a good idea to cooperate with a pervert." Ye Shuang was a little confused.
Xu Jian didn't understand and asked inexplicably: "What did the other party say about the current situation?"
"..." Ye Shuang paused, then became even more confused: "I forgot to ask."
Second Austrian! Totally distracted by the perverted story! (To be continued)
