Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 422 Losing both money and people, it's normal to go a little crazy.
"What?! What are you saying?!"

The woman was truly panicked this time.

She tried to appear calm, but her trembling lips betrayed her true emotions.

"I bet you've run out of cards."

Yu Dazhang said slowly and deliberately:

"You've confessed to most of the embezzled funds, and the money you left for your children isn't much in your eyes."

“In Jianning, a third-tier city, five million is enough to make a person financially free and live a life without worry about food and clothing for the rest of their life.”

He raised his voice slightly:
“You know that if you leave too much money, the children won’t be able to control it, and it will also make you an easy target for malicious people, so the money you leave behind should not exceed ten million.”

As he spoke, he kept observing the woman's changing expressions.

When the number "ten million" was mentioned, the woman's eye twitched.

Although it was just a small movement, Yu Dazhang still managed to catch it.

That's true!

That micro-expression just now couldn't be faked.

Could it be that she just happened to have kept ten million? Yu Dazhang felt that this amount best suited the woman's style of doing things.

She has already planned out a future for her child.

Unfortunately, that wasn't her money.

"You...you're talking nonsense!"

The woman's face turned pale.

Ignoring her injuries, she struggled to sit up.

"You wouldn't even spare a child," she said, glaring at Yu Dazhang.
“We have already been brought to justice, and the child will definitely be sent to an orphanage. Under these circumstances, how can I leave money for the child?”

“You’re too self-righteous. Even if our whole family has committed crimes, the child is innocent. He’s only seven years old. You can’t deprive him of his right to live.”

Explanation is just a cover-up... Yu Dazhang was now even more certain.

He chatted with the woman for a while, hoping to see if she still had any stock left.

Judging from the current situation, she probably doesn't have much money left.

"Alright, let's stop here for now."

Yu Dazhang put the notebook into his bag and said casually:

“I know you definitely won’t tell us about the money you left for the child at the end. That’s okay, we don’t necessarily have to ask you for it.”

The woman immediately understood, and seeing Yu Dazhang stand up, she shouted:
"You can't go to the child! He's innocent!"

"Innocent?" Yu Dazhang, who had already reached the door, turned back and glanced at her after hearing her words.
"It's fucking ridiculous for you to say those two words."

After he finished speaking, he opened the door and went out.

Even outside, the woman's hysterical screams could still be heard from inside the ward:

"I've said everything I needed to say! I've given you all the money, I just beg you to let the child go!! You can't go to him!"

Team Hua and Qi Fang came forward again.

"Why does it feel like she's going crazy?" Qi Fang asked.

Yu Dazhang smiled:

"Having lost both money and loved ones, it's normal to go a little crazy."

After he finished speaking, he noticed that both of them had their eyes on his bag.

"What are you doing?" Yu Dazhang subconsciously tightened his grip on the bag.

Hua's gaze never left his bag, and he asked directly:
"Where's the notebook?"

Upon hearing him say "notebook," Yu Dazhang immediately understood what the two of them were expecting.

So they were waiting for me to tear up the paper... He looked at the two of them speechlessly.

“This is a bit complicated. She should have left a sum of money separately for the children. I guess the amount is no more than ten million. The way she left the money is most likely in cash or an overseas account.”

When Hua Dui and Qi Fang heard this, they stared at him intently.

No wonder the woman broke down; he had squeezed every last drop of her juices out of her.

"wrong."

Yu Dazhang paused for a moment, then continued:
"She must have left cash."

Once the crime is discovered, all bank accounts will no longer be safe, not even for transferring money abroad.

In his view, the safest and most discreet way right now is cash.

"The rest is up to you."

Yu Dazhang rubbed his temples hard, looking a little tired, but still remembered to give his instructions:
"Try to find a professional to talk to the child, and try not to let this incident affect the child."

The child is indeed innocent.

The concept of guilt by association no longer exists in society today.

But to achieve true innocence, the child must be completely separated from the case. Therefore, this money must be recovered.

What they left the children was not money, but human blood and gore.

If the child grows up and uses this money, he will only thank his family in prison and hate society.

There are examples of this.

A female singer's mother embezzled resettlement fees from more than 500 laid-off workers, with the amount involved reaching 360 million yuan.

A large portion of it was transferred abroad and deposited in her daughter's name.

The female celebrity used that money to live a luxurious life abroad.

Not only did she show no remorse, she also frequently flaunted her wealth online.

What's most infuriating is that she goes online every day to plead her mother's innocence, calling her a hero.

In the realm of shamelessness, she can be said to have reached the pinnacle.

The TV series "In the Name of the People" is based on the story of the resettlement fees at Dafeng Factory, which is the prototype of the case involving the female celebrity's mother.

When you think TV dramas are exaggerated, you don't realize that reality is much crueler than what's depicted in movies and TV shows.

Because TV dramas and movies need to pass censorship, but not in real life.

The next day.

The task force received more good news: Zhang Chao's mother's relative had been apprehended.

After interrogation, the other party quickly revealed the whereabouts of the 100 million yuan in embezzled funds.

Things went much more smoothly with the child.

The Chinese team found a child psychologist who found out the location of the stolen money in just ten minutes.

This last sum of money was hidden by Zhang Chao's mother in a cemetery in Jianning.

After the tombstone was moved, they found that there was no cash inside, but neatly arranged gold bars.

Based on the 2014 gold price, the total amount would be nearly ten million.

Upon hearing this news, Yu Dazhang couldn't help but sigh: Zhang Chao's mother knows how to invest.

He assumed that what he would leave for the child would be cash.

Unexpectedly, the woman's idea was even more advanced; she directly exchanged it for gold bars.

This not only allows for long-term preservation without worrying about insects or ants, but also helps maintain and increase the value of the product.

By 2025, the price of gold will have nearly doubled compared to 2014.

In other words, the initial ten million in gold directly increased in value to thirty million.

At this point, the case has officially entered the closing process.

That night.

Yu Dazhang returned to the hotel and saw Qu Tuotuo holding a video conference.

She waited for about ten minutes before closing her laptop.

“You’re quite busy with work, you don’t need to come here to keep me company.”

Yu Dazhang advised:
"Why don't you go back to Songhai first? I'll have to wait a few more days before I can go back."

On the one hand, he was afraid of delaying Qu Tuotuo's work, and on the other hand, he felt that she was delaying his work.

He hasn't written his report yet.

With Qu Tuotuo here, it would be difficult for him to concentrate on how to write this report.

"I do not go!"

Qu Tuotuo was immediately displeased when she heard that he wanted to send her away:
"You're kicking me out as soon as your injury has healed a little? You're so heartless."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something, and then glared at Yu Dazhang and questioned him:

"Have you met other girls here?"

"Heaven and earth bear witness!" Yu Dazhang cried out in protest.

“I’m busy solving cases here every day, and I don’t have any chance to meet women. Besides, I’m not that kind of person.”

He felt truly wronged and even thought that Qu Tuotuo was being unreasonable.

There is no basis for it.

They wronged an innocent person without any basis whatsoever.

"is it?"

Qu Tuotuo walked towards him step by step, her expression a half-smile:

"There was a woman, very pretty, with short, ear-length hair and bright eyes..."

"Stop." Before she could finish speaking, Yu Dazhang raised his hand to interrupt her:
Was she wearing a small white flower on her chest?
