Page 342

……

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) acted swiftly, quickly joining forces with the police to apprehend the culprits: several staff members from the HKMA, HSBC, the Financial Secretary, and other departments.

Then on the same day (the third day),

An emergency press conference was held.

"Following a joint investigation by several departments, including the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), the Criminal Intelligence Bureau, the Commercial Crime Bureau, the Financial Secretary's Internal Investigation Department, and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's Audit Department..."

"We have finally uncovered a shocking case of illegal printing of banknotes!"

"The truth has come to light... Now, please hear the details of the case..."

"The perpetrators are: Financial Secretary Wang Wenhao, Hong Kong Monetary Authority Chief Executive Chen Dongyi, and HSBC Bank's Zhou Zhihui..."

"Led by these three individuals, the team comprises over 18 people and has been operating for a long time..."

"The total amount of illegally printed banknotes exceeded HK$13 billion, which is appalling..."

"The evidence is irrefutable, the proof is undeniable..."

This press conference was broadcast live by TVB and ATV, attracting a total viewership of over 500 million across Hong Kong, drawing massive crowds.

The main culprits were brought out and their crimes were exposed.

At this moment, all the citizens of Hong Kong cheered.

"Good, well done!"

"This is absolutely gratifying!"

"These people should be shot!"

"They printed 13 billion, damn it, that's absolutely outrageous."

The whole of Hong Kong was shocked and cheered.

As for whether the Hong Kong government will lie.

The people of Hong Kong Island are still very confident, after all, the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) is leading the effort, and various departments investigating violations of discipline and law are also involved, so its credibility is top-notch.

……

West Kowloon Police Station.

In Ma Zhichao's office, there is a television that is broadcasting the press conference.

Liang Xiaorou, Zhou Xingxing, Chen Jiaju, Chen Jin, and the newcomers Chen Guozhong and Ma Jun were all there.

"Officer Ma, it's too easy. These people arrest people too quickly, and the evidence is too overwhelming."

Chen Guozhong expressed his doubts about this.

Others nodded.

"That's really too fast."

"It feels like everything was planned."

"More importantly, these people are all small fry. I don't believe that all the higher-ups are innocent."

"I don't believe it either."

Everyone who personally experienced this case felt there was something wrong with it.

Ma Zhichao slammed his hand on the table: "Alright, stop discussing! Now that the case has been closed, we, as subordinates, should trust them. If these words get out, you'll be punished."

"It's all gone."

Waving,

Everyone dispersed.

Just before leaving, Stephen Chow suddenly poked his head in.

"Hey boss, I have something to tell you, you might be interested..." Zhou Xingxing said with a gossipy look on his face.

Ma Zhichao: "What is it?"

Stephen Chow: "Meili told me that Lu Zhilian's wife died."

Ma Zhichao's heart skipped a beat.

Did this happen around this time?

He glared at Stephen Chow and said, "You're such a gossip, get lost!"

Stephen Chow continued, "And another thing, because of his wife's death, Luk Chi-lim went crazy and went to investigate the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department. He actually found out something and arrested several people."

Ma Zhichao nodded, then said, "Get lost!"

It's interfering with my Minesweeper game!

Before clearing the mines, Ma Zhichao conducted anti-eavesdropping, then made a phone call to the doctor: "Prepare during this time, keep an eye on one person, Charlie Chan, the assistant to HKMA chief Connally."

Charlie Chan was the person recognized by Sung Tze-ho.

Ma Zhichao: "Don't tie him up yet, just keep an eye on him and wait for my call."

Doctor: "Yes, boss."

Just as Ma Zhichao hung up the phone, an unknown number called.

"I am Ma Zhichao, who am I?"

"Officer Ma, are you free to go fishing?" Lu Zhilian's voice came over.

“Yes…” Ma Zhichao smiled!

……

1 hours later,

The usual spot, the waters off Lamma Island.

The two yachts met.

Lu Zhilian jumped from the small yacht onto Ma Zhichao's large yacht.

The two continued fishing.

As he fished, Lu Zhilian thought of the tiger stripe he had caught last time, and then he remembered what he had said to his wife that day…

He immediately lost interest, threw down his fishing rod, and became gloomy.

Ma Zhichao asked in surprise, "What's wrong? You don't seem to be in a good mood?"

Lu Zhilian's eyes reddened: "My wife is dead."

Ma Zhichao paused for a moment, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "Please accept my condolences."

Lu Zhilian said earnestly, "Right now, only work can numb me!"

Ma Zhichao nodded without saying anything.

At this moment, Lu Zhilian was probably in a very anxious, angry, and guilty state of mind, with a mix of emotions: "Ma Sir, I won't beat around the bush with you. I think there's something wrong with the people arrested at the Financial Secretary's press conference today!"

Ma Zhichao: "What do you mean?"

Lu Zhilian said seriously and angrily: "I secretly learned about the Independent Commission Against Corruption's investigation process and found it to be too smooth. It's as if all departments have agreed to cooperate seamlessly, and all the evidence is just laid out there waiting for them to look at it..."

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhichao was furious: "You mean they fabricated it?"

Lu Zhilian nodded, his gaze gloomy: "That's right! I think these departments are all fabricating evidence, and the interest groups behind them are probably very powerful, otherwise it would be impossible for so many departments to close the case so quickly."

Ma Zhichao: "What do you want?"

Lu Zhilian's voice was unwavering: "I want to investigate!"

"My wife's death was caused by collusion between the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department and the elevator company. They forged inspection certificates, and the elevator was of poor quality, which led to my wife falling to her death!"

"These corrupt officials should all be punished by law!"

Ma Zhichao looked at Lu Zhilian in front of him.

He has been transformed!

The wife's sacrifice to the heavens possesses boundless power!

Ma Zhichao reached out his hand, serious: "Alright, then let's work together to find these people!"

Lu Zhilian reached out his hand!

The two shook hands!

Cooperation achieved!

"Ring ring ring~~~~~"

Just then, Ma Zhichao's phone rang.

Yang Jianhua's!

Ma Zhichao was surprised. Why would she call him out of the blue?
