Wan Qingshan's gaze towards Lin Dong was filled with even greater admiration:

"Brother Lin, I have to admire your brain. Analyze it further:"

Will these two masterminds escape? Or rather, how long will it take for the police to catch them?

A thief caring about another thief? So concerned? Are you watching a movie? So concerned about the ending?

Lin Dong had no choice but to hold up two fingers.

Two days? Two months?

Wan Qingshan asked.

Lin Dong shook his head.

Two years?

Fan Gui, who was standing next to him, was also surprised and couldn't help but ask more questions.

Lin Dong continued to shake his head.

"Holy crap, it can't be twenty years, can it? Where could they possibly escape to?"

Wan Qingshan was stunned and exclaimed in disbelief.

"Brother Wan, if I'm not mistaken, those two guys are probably already overseas right now."

Given Chen Shumin's intellect, and the missed opportunity to intercept them, it will be difficult for the police to catch them in the short term; twenty years is a conservative estimate.

Lin Dong laughed, saying that he was the one who knew the course of events best.

After the crime, the two Chens fled to various places both domestically and abroad, hiding their identities, until they were finally arrested 22 years later.

"Those five scoundrels will all be caught within 10 days, but as for Chen Shumin and his companion, that's a different story. Want to make a bet?"

"Fine, I'm sure I'll lose if I bet with you."

Lin Dong's incredibly accurate and uncanny predictions about the case completely subdued Wan Qingshan.

If Wan Qingshan were to let go of such a prodigy, he would be a complete fool.

Without further hesitation, Wan Qingshan immediately summoned the head of the human resources department and personally helped Lin Dong complete the onboarding procedures for Wanqi.

The position is Chairman's Assistant, with a monthly salary of 1500 and bonuses.

This wage level was enough to surpass the average person in China in 1995.

Lin Dong was naturally very satisfied. He wasn't satisfied with his monthly salary; he was already a multi-millionaire, so why would he care about such a small amount of money?

He was satisfied with the position of chairman's assistant. Although it didn't have much real power, it was convenient because it was close to Wanqing Mountain.

Only by getting close can one have a chance to discover where his 100 million in illicit funds are hidden.

"Brother Lin... let's keep it simple, I'll just call you Lin Dong. I won't bother with formalities. From today onwards, you'll be working for me. I, Wan Qingshan, will enjoy the good life and will definitely not leave you with just scraps."

Wan Qingshan was very happy to see that Lin Dong had completed the onboarding procedures.

“Brother Wan, from now on I will call you Brother Shan, it will seem more intimate. Putting everything else aside, I, Lin Dong, will never hesitate to serve Brother Shan.”

Lin Dong straightened his expression and pretended to be very sincere in his statement.

"Haha...good, good, with you joining Wanqi, it will definitely be even more powerful. Peng...Peng what?"

"Brother Shan, your future is bright."

"Yes, it means soaring high! As expected of cultured people, that's right."

Wan Qingshan looked at Lin Dong with increasing satisfaction and said:

"You look energetic, but your fashion sense is lacking. Go buy a couple of decent outfits and come to work tomorrow."

After saying that, Wan Qingshan took out a black briefcase from the tea cabinet, opened it, and took out a wad of cash.

"Here's 5,000 yuan. Take it and spend it first. The company will deduct it back from your bonus later."

Wan Qingshan generously pushed the money in front of Lin Dong.

Lin Dong didn't stand on ceremony, thanked him, and put the money in his pocket. Of course, he also used the system to convert it into wealth points, because even a small amount is still money.

Why not take this money that's offered to you?

...

It was 4:30 pm when Lin Dong came out of Wanqi.

Seeing that it was still early, Lin Dong went to Friendship Shopping Mall, the most upscale shopping mall in the North District.

He spent several thousand yuan to buy two Armani black suits, two white shirts, and a pair of black leather shoes.

Looking at his tall and straight figure in the fitting mirror, 1.85 meters tall, wearing a well-fitting suit, and with a handsome face that was both angular and dashing, Lin Dong couldn't help but smile slightly.

He exuded a captivatingly roguish charm, causing the eyes of several young female shop assistants nearby to light up.

This man looks completely different in a suit; he's absolutely stunning.

...

The feeling of returning from a 51-year-old soul to a youthful body is truly indescribable.

Carrying several shopping bags, Lin Dong bid farewell to the female shop assistants' lingering gazes and returned to his newly rented apartment.

Tomorrow, I'm officially starting work at Wanqi. I'm wearing a black suit. Does that mean I'm stepping into the underworld?

Lin Dong's goal was actually very clear: to make money and get his hands on Wan Qingshan's 100 million yuan in illicit funds as soon as possible.

Lin Dong didn't care how many dirty businesses Wan Qingshan had behind him.

The next morning at 8:30, Lin Dong arrived at Wanqi early, first reporting to the personnel department and receiving his employee badge.

Then he strolled leisurely to the chairman's office, and seeing that the door was not yet open, he simply went downstairs and ate a plate of beef rice noodle rolls.

After finishing breakfast and returning to the 15th floor, he sat on the sofa in the reception area in front of the chairman's office, reading the newspaper and drinking coffee.

Lin Dong was dressed smartly in a black suit and white shirt today. Although he wasn't wearing a tie, his undeniable handsomeness and masculinity still added a lot to the company's image.

Many female employees, and even some male employees, couldn't help but glance at the reception area.

Who is this guy? He's so handsome and stylish!

At 9:30 a.m., Wan Qingshan still hadn't returned. Damn, can a boss be this careless?

Lin Dong shook his head helplessly and could only continue to curl up on the sofa, drinking coffee and reading the newspaper.

"Huh? Handsome guy, who are you? I've never seen you before."
