Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 421 Eradicate evil completely, leave no one alive.

The ward fell silent.

The woman's expression returned to calm.

The two looked at each other, and neither spoke for a moment.

The two policewomen standing by the window looked at each other, their faces showing confusion.

Why are they even commenting on acting skills now?
Why do I feel an urge to be a bystander when watching their conversation?

I suddenly have a craving for some dried fruits like sunflower seeds and peanuts.

Has anyone ever told you that you are annoying?

The woman's voice was calm, but her eyes were terrifyingly sinister.
"Leaving no room for others is like digging your own grave."

Those who don't curse others, are they just sore losers...? Yu Dazhang replied with a straight face:
“My profession doesn’t allow me to leave room for others; I have to eradicate evil completely. I’m just doing my job.”

Mandarin is something that can be annoying to hear others speak, but it feels really nice to speak it yourself.

He was already considering whether or not to stand on the moral high ground and condemn the other party.

That must feel amazing.

"I have a suggestion, you might as well listen to it."

The woman suddenly lowered her voice and said in a tone that only the two of them could hear:

“I’ll give you a phone number. Contact him and he’ll give you 50 million in cash. I just beg you to stop investigating. Leave the rest of the money for the children.”

"Mmm..." Yu Dazhang lowered his head, pretending to listen:

"Is there another code?"

His voice was also very low, carrying a hint of suppressed excitement, which made the policewoman next to him frown.

This fat guy with the little net on his head doesn't look like a good person.

"May flowers bring wealth and prosperity," the woman replied softly.

This code is indeed something that people from her generation would come up with... Yu Dazhang already had a picture in his mind.

My TV background wall is like this, with red flowers and green leaves on it, and the four big characters "花开富贵" (meaning "flowers bloom and wealth abounds") written in the middle.

I absolutely have to change the feature wall when I go home this time!
"After giving me 50 million, how much money is left?" Yu Dazhang asked in a low voice.

He even leaned his head out, seemingly afraid that the policewoman by the window would see the expression on his face.

"Why are you asking this?" the woman asked him warily.
"Don't even think about the rest of the money."

The two seemed to have already agreed to the deal, and were now essentially haggling over it.

"I was just asking out of curiosity, I didn't say I wanted it."

Yu Dazhang glanced at the policewoman by the window, looking like he'd done something wrong:

“If one day the person you entrusted to me gets arrested by the police, wouldn’t that implicate me as well? So I need to be aware of this.”

His cautious demeanor, coupled with the small net on his head, made him seem somewhat comical, but the woman couldn't laugh.

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke slowly:

“That’s a relative of mine. I left him 100 million in cash, you get 50 million, he gets 20 million, and the rest goes to his children.”

Another hundred million!

The more money they have, the deeper the sins they have committed.

After the rescue operation in N Province ended, Yu Dazhang never asked how many mentally disabled people were rescued.

It's not that he doesn't care, but he's afraid he can't handle it psychologically.

The number of people who died and those who were sent to the hospital ship on the high seas was proportional to the total number of people.

The more people are rescued, the more people will be tortured to death.

"Give me your phone number."

Yu Dazhang suppressed his anger and tried his best to keep his voice steady:
"I'll only take what's rightfully mine."

"I don't just want money, I want the person too..." he added in his mind.

"Write this down, 131..." Zhang Chao's mother then whispered a mobile phone number.

Yu Dazhang wrote the number down in his notebook and then wrote the four characters "花开富贵" (meaning "May flowers bloom and wealth abound") below it.

"Wait a moment, I'll go out and verify."

Before the woman could react, he had already stood up and walked out. As soon as he stepped outside, Captain Hua and Qi Fang immediately came to greet him.

"That address is real," Team Leader Hua reported in a reporting tone.
"Local police broke down the door at the address and found a large amount of cash inside. The scene has been cordoned off and the bank has been notified to send staff to count the cash."

In his view, finding this 100 million would mean the case was successfully solved.

So both he and Qi Fang had smiles on their faces.

But the next second, their smiles suddenly froze.

They saw the fat man tear another piece of paper from the notebook, and just like last time, he began cleaning up the scraps.

The scene was so familiar that the two thought time had turned back.

Is it...

Did he get a new clue from that question?

Just as the two were speculating, Yu Dazhang handed the page he had just torn off to Captain Hua:

"Call the number above, the code is 'Flowers Bloom and Wealth Arrives,' the other party is a relative of Zhang Chao's mother, and has 100 million yuan in stolen money. Find a way to catch him."

Another hundred million?!
After receiving the paper, Hua felt it was particularly heavy.

Tearing off a single sheet of paper is worth a hundred million; this fat man's notebook must be incredibly valuable.

He also felt fortunate.

Thank goodness I didn't give the order to close the case beforehand, otherwise I would have been humiliated by this fat man again.

And sure enough, the total amount of embezzled funds has increased again.

As long as he's around, it seems like there are always new clues in this case.

Seeing that Da Zhang was about to enter the ward again, Captain Hua felt his throat go dry, and his voice even changed:
"Aren't you finished asking?"

Goodness, you made a hundred million in one trip. None of the pre-trial investigators are as efficient as you.

If you keep messing around like this, you'll tear your notebook to shreds.

"Soon." Yu Dazhang smiled.
"It should be almost done."

Despite his seemingly warm smile, it sent a chill down the spines of Hua and Qi.

This fat guy is so greedy, he'll squeeze the pee out of any toad he catches.

However, when it comes to dealing with criminals, you really have to be tough.

Back in the ward, Yu Dazhang noticed that the two policewomen were looking at him rather unfriendly.

He didn't seem to care, which just proved that his acting was spot on.

Sitting back down on the edge of the bed, Yu Dazhang nodded to the woman:

"I've already sent someone to collect the money."

The woman quickly realized what he meant by "send someone to get the money."

"You fool me?!"

"You tricked me first," Yu Dazhang replied coldly.

“How could someone as suspicious as you possibly entrust your money to someone else, not even a relative?”

His words startled the woman, and then a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

That's the right expression... Yu Dazhang continued:

“You know very well that everyone has greed, so you left the other party 20 million, but you still won’t feel at ease.”

"So, your relative is also a victim to you."

His tone grew increasingly harsh, as if he wanted to completely tear away the other person's pretense:

“If the police continue their investigation, you will not hesitate to implicate him.”

"You've set up all these obstacles just to make the police think you've confessed to all the stolen money."

"And the money you actually leave to your children, only your children themselves know."

Yu Dazhang stared at the woman, his eyes sharp as a knife:

"You want to use me to close the loop? Fine, I'll grant your wish!"
