The PR manager from Cai Songyin's entertainment company had already fled, but due to a momentary lapse in judgment, he didn't leave the Imperial Capital in time. When he was withdrawing money, he was escorted into a police car by a swarm of police officers.
Yin Shixiong arrived with his men and immediately took over. They took him into a military vehicle and locked him up in the Special Operations Forces' suspect building.
Hong Kangquan, Tan Dongbang, and Cai Songyin were all locked up there.
Huo Shaoheng heard that Yin Shixiong had brought the PR manager back so quickly and patted him on the shoulder. "Good job, Big Xiong! I'll give you a drumstick tonight. "
Yin Shixiong chuckled. "Huo Shao, I don't need the drumstick. Can you give me something else? Like approving my marriage application or something … "
Huo Shaoheng suddenly seemed to become selectively deaf.
He said, "Set up the interrogation room so that Cai Songyin and her PR manager can confront each other."
Of course, before that, he had to interrogate the PR manager.
Arriving at the PR manager's interrogation room, Huo Shaoheng casually sat down in front of him. "Why did you run?"
The PR manager forced himself to be calm as he pushed up his glasses. "I didn't run. I resigned normally. Sir, the law doesn't say I can't resign, right? "
Huo Shaoheng crossed his legs and listened to his nonsense as he flipped through the bank details brought back by Yin Shixiong. He said calmly, "The law doesn't say I can't resign, but the law says that illegal assets will be confiscated, and there will be a fine and sentence."
"What?! What illegal assets do I have? Every penny I have is earned with my own hard work. Go ask around and find out who the 'Desperate Man' of Cai's Entertainment Company is! "
The PR manager was indeed a PR manager. He was very good at changing the subject.
However, Huo Shaoheng wasn't an ignorant person. He wasn't easily led astray.
"You worked hard to earn every penny? Including bribing a lousy writer to write this kind of article? " Huo Shaoheng slapped the short article summary on the PR manager's desk. "Look at this yourself. Is this worth 90 million?"
The PR manager's face turned pale with fright. He stammered, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who did I bribe? You can't slander me! "
The PR manager snapped out of his daze and recalled that the Weibo blogger "Churchill's Garden" Lu Dayong was already dead. No one knew that he had anything to do with this incident, so he quickly armed himself.
"I never say things without evidence." Huo Shaoheng shook his head. "Tell me where the 90 million came from first. I don't think you've filed your taxes, have you? "
An unexpected windfall of ninety million, only a fool would file taxes …
The PR manager muttered in his heart and became more and more unscrupulous. He crossed his arms and said, "This is a gift from someone. So what? Is giving gifts against the law? I'm not an official, so it's none of your business. "
Huo Shaoheng raised his brows. "Who gave it to you? If you can't tell me where it came from, I'll confiscate the ninety million. "
Actually, even if he told them where he came from, it would still be confiscated.
The PR manager stared at him. "Which law says I can't receive a large gift? You can't be unreasonable! "
"… Do you know what money laundering is?" Huo Shaoheng looked at the man who knew nothing about the law. "Can you feel at ease if such a large amount of money is transferred to your account?"
Actually, there was also a problem with the bank's surveillance. Such a large amount of money was transferred to an ordinary account, but they didn't report it.
But Huo Shaoheng thought about it again. Domestic anti-money laundering matters were reported to the Secret Service, and the head of the Secret Service had always been Hong Kangquan …
Therefore, some seemingly unrelated clues came together and formed a knot.
If the bank had reported such a large amount of money, Hong Kangquan would definitely know about it.
But he didn't order the bank to investigate, and instead hid this information.
That was interesting.
What role did Hong Kangquan play in all of this?
The PR manager panicked when he heard the word "money laundering." He yelled, "You're saying I'm laundering money? Show me the evidence! "
"People like you have to show evidence to prove that they're not laundering money." Huo Shaoheng stared at him again, his gaze sharp as an arrow. "Tell me, who gave you the money? Was it Cai Songyin? "
The PR manager's expression changed. After a while, he stiffened his neck. "So what if it was? So what if it wasn't?! "
"If it was, come with me to see someone." Huo Shaoheng smiled faintly and stood up.
He brought the PR manager to Cai Songyin's interrogation room.
As soon as the PR manager entered and saw Cai Songyin, he looked like he had seen a ghost and was about to kneel.
"Miss … Miss Cai!" The PR manager's forehead glistened with sweat.
Cai Songyin looked at him and said to Huo Shaoheng, "Yes, it was him. I asked him to contact that Weibo blogger. "
The PR manager's face turned ashen, and he couldn't even stand straight.
Huo Shaoheng placed the PR manager's bank details in front of Cai Songyin. "He just said that you gave him the 90 million."
Cai Songyin was furious as soon as she saw it. "Nonsense! When did I ever give you that much money?! I was generous enough to give you an annual salary of 300,000. You … "
Suddenly, Cai Songyin understood.
She pounced on the PR manager, who had already fallen to the ground, and kicked him.
"You traitorous b * tch! You're really trying to get me killed! Tell me! Who gave you the money?! What did he ask you to do?! "
Huo Shaoheng extended the summary of the short article to the PR manager. "Look at this yourself. What is this?"
The PR manager glanced at it and still tried to defend himself. "Miss Cai asked me to find someone to write this. She paid me 90 million to seal my mouth."
"Bullsh * t! Do you need me to seal your mouth? You'll be killed sooner or later! " Cai Songyin shook her head in disdain. "My entire fortune is less than 90 million. How would I give you 90 million in cash? Major General Huo, he's lying. Don't believe him. "
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "We've already searched his house with a search warrant. We should have results soon."
By now, the PR manager had completely broken down.
He sprawled on the ground and sobbed. "I was just momentarily blinded by greed! Someone contacted me and asked me to replace Chief Cai's essay. They promised me a ninety million yuan reward. I've never seen so much money before, so … so … I agreed. Miss Cai is also slandering Miss Gu and Major General Huo anyway … "
"Slandering my ass!" Cai Songyin was furious. "I was only targeting Gu Nianzhi. When did I ask you to slander Major General Huo?! What happened to the email I sent you? "
"… I deleted it," the PR manager said dejectedly.
Huo Shaoheng said nonchalantly, "It's fine. As long as the hard drive is still there, we can recover everything."
The PR manager: "!!!"
It was already too late to argue.
An hour later, Huo Shaoheng recovered all the deleted data on his laptop hard drive and found the original outline that Cai Songyin had sent him.
It was indeed as Cai Songyin had said. The content she wanted to write was to slander Gu Nianzhi, but it was actually to support Huo Shaoheng …
However, the short article that had been replaced was extremely disgusting.
He really didn't know whether the mastermind hated Huo Shaoheng more or Gu Nianzhi more. Or perhaps they hated both equally?
Huo Shaoheng felt that it wasn't surprising that someone hated him. Of course, his enemies hated him to the core.
However, he couldn't understand why someone hated Gu Nianzhi so intensely.
Gu Nianzhi was only 19 years old and had never done anything bad. Who hated her so much that they wanted to destroy her reputation and make her live a life worse than death?
For some reason, this method reminded Huo Shaoheng of the sinister "H3aB7" incident from two years ago. It was practically the same despicable and vicious act.
Huo Shaoheng thought about it and found the email attachment that someone had sent him in the PR manager's email. It was the outline of the short article that had been replaced. It even provided some extremely detailed descriptions.
Huo Shaoheng: "…"
He looked at it silently for a while before physically deleting the entire attachment. Then, he used the formatting program that he had written himself to format a hard drive partition.
This way, even if he recovered the deleted data on the hard drive, the data that he had specially formatted could not be recovered.
This time, since he had found the email that someone had sent him, he could also find the IP address that had sent the email.
When Huo Shaoheng saw the invalid IP address that he and Gu Nianzhi were very familiar with, he completely understood.
From start to finish, they only had one enemy.
