Upon hearing this, Zhou Zheng frowned, looking somewhat disappointed.

After a moment's thought, he ordered his men to bring Chen Shu to the living room for a surprise interrogation.

He had been following this case for over ten days. The forces behind it might be complex and intertwined, so the case had to be solved as soon as possible.

"We have evidence against you and the criminal activities of your gang," Zhou Zheng glanced at Chen Shu and said coldly. "I advise you to honestly confess everything you know, and you might be able to get leniency!"

This question completely stunned Chen Shu, who didn't react for a long time.

"What did you say?"

Seeing this, Zhou Zheng couldn't help but sneer: "Pretend! Keep pretending! Don't you know what you've done?"

Chen Shu swallowed hard, racking his brains to recall.

After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't figure out what he had done that was so outrageous that it would attract this wave of "divine justice".

"I...I...I've always been a law-abiding citizen and have never done anything wrong..." He glanced furtively at Zhou Zheng and the others, and whispered his defense.

"Except for last week when I saw an elderly woman crossing the street without being helped, she stepped on the sandcastle a child had built..."

Immediately afterwards, he frantically reflected on his actions and honestly confessed all the "bad things" he had done.

"Stop!" Zhou Zheng interrupted hastily, his face darkening. "There's no need to talk about such trivial matters!"

"But that's all I did..." Chen Shu said with a bitter face, almost crying.

Zhou Zheng gave him a deep look and reminded him, "Yesterday, 100 million yuan was suddenly transferred into your account. Explain that."

Chen Shu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly explained, "This is our company's order, but there was a problem with the corporate account, so it was transferred to my personal account..."

"Orders?" Zhou Zheng frowned.

"Yes, someone contacted me online and bought ten passenger planes from our company, with a prepayment of 100 million..." Chen Shu nodded and explained the whole story.

He's mainly in charge of sales. A few days ago, someone suddenly approached him and asked to buy ten airplanes.

After several days of negotiations, the purchase and delivery details were finalized yesterday, and a contract was signed. The other party acted decisively, transferring a prepayment of 100 million.

However, the purchase of this type of aircraft is subject to strict taxes. In order to legally avoid taxes, he did not have the other party transfer the money to the company account, but instead transferred it to his own personal account.

But who would have thought that while he was sleeping today, a group of police officers suddenly rushed in and surrounded him.

If the neighbors knew, they'd think he was some kind of terrorist.

"Is it that simple?" Zhou Zheng was equally dumbfounded after hearing this.

"Is it because his money is dirty?" Chen Shu looked at Zhou Zheng expectantly and continued to argue.

"Officer, I'm just a plane seller. He said he wanted to buy ten planes for transportation, and I didn't think much of it. I really didn't know the money was illicit!"

Now that things have come to this, he can probably guess what's going on. The police most likely found him through this money and mistook him for that person's accomplice.

"I knew it! What kind of school needs ten airplanes as transportation? If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have taken this job!" Chen Shu pounded his chest and stamped his feet, filled with resentment and regret.

"Keep making things up!" Zhou Zheng sneered upon hearing this, completely disbelieving Chen Shu's words.

It's outrageous enough for a university to buy a plane, but to actually use it as a means of transportation on campus? Nobody would believe that.

"I'm telling the truth! Oh, right, I have electronic orders and prepayment receipts on my computer." Chen Shu suddenly realized and quickly raised his hand.

Zhou Zheng frowned, ordered someone to bring a computer, and found the order.

The company will make an advance payment of 100 million yuan and deliver the goods via direct flight. The company will deliver the aircraft to the location designated by Wei Ying within three days at the latest.

Upon seeing this, not only Zhou Zheng, but all the other police officers wore expressions of disbelief. They weren't buying just one, but ten! The prepayment alone amounted to a staggering one hundred million.

For a moment, everyone fell silent. The living room was deathly quiet.

Everyone was so engrossed in Wei Ying's "outrageous" behavior that they were unable to calm down for a long time.

They all thought they had found a breakthrough in this huge "fraud gang," but little did they know that Wei Ying had not absconded with the money; he had simply purchased ten airplanes for the university.

Half a day later, the deputy looked at Zhou Zheng and couldn't help but ask, "Deputy Director, what do we do now?"

Zhou Zheng glanced at Chen Shu, whose clothes were disheveled, sighed, and apologized, "We were investigating a case, and we made a blunder today. I'm sorry."

As he spoke, he ordered someone to remove the shackles from Chen Shu's hands.

Seeing this, Chen Shu finally felt relieved and slumped back on the sofa, a look of relief on his face.

A moment later, he couldn't help but ask, "By the way, is Wei Ying, the one who bought our plane, the one you're investigating?"

"That's not something you should be asking." Zhou Zheng glanced at him indifferently. "Pretend today's events never happened. Don't tell anyone, understand?"

Chen Shu swallowed hard and nodded repeatedly, like a rattle-drum.

"Fall back!" Zhou Zheng waved his hand and hurriedly led his men away from Chen Shu's house.

After leaving the residential area, he looked at his deputy and said in a deep voice, "As it stands, Wei Ying is still seriously planning to build the school."

"But he has too much money in his bank account, all of which was raised through crowdfunding. It must be closely monitored and cannot be lost!" Wei Ying now has more than one billion in funds in his bank account.

As Haichuan University became increasingly popular, more and more people transferred money to him, with at least 100 million yuan flowing into his account every day.

In the event that Wei Ying absconds with the funds, they must discover and stop him immediately, and be responsible for the public's property.

"Let's go back to the construction site." After a moment's thought, Zhou Zheng decided to call it a day and continue to the construction site at the junction of the four provinces to carry out monitoring duties.

construction site.

Wei Ying was lying on a deck chair, enjoying the heat from the large fan on the construction site.

"Why have they lost contact?" He looked down at his phone and muttered to himself, "They haven't replied to me since I transferred the money, it's been almost a day."

On his phone, he sent more than twenty messages to the contact person named "Chen Shu," but they all went unanswered.

This made him a little uneasy. He had just transferred a 100 million yuan advance payment, and the other party pulled this stunt. Anyone would be unsettled in this situation.

"Call the police!" Wei Ying took a deep breath, stood up from the recliner, opened the dial pad on his phone, and prepared to make a call to the police.

Just then, the contact person named "Chen Shu" finally replied.

"Sorry, I've been quite busy at work today and haven't had time to reply."

Upon seeing the message, Wei Ying's lips twitched slightly, and he typed irritably, "Thank goodness you replied, I almost called the police."

Chen Shu: "..."

"Alright, let's get down to business. I've already transferred the prepayment. When will your plane arrive?" Wei Ying frowned and got straight to the point.

"Tomorrow," the other party replied readily, giving a definite time. As for the final payment, it would need to be paid in full upon delivery.
