After stabilizing the alliance, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen knew they were getting closer to the truth, but the road ahead was becoming increasingly difficult. Every new discovery was like opening a door to deeper darkness, and the secret behind this door was related to the fate of countless people.
They focused their attention on the collusion between the mysterious organization and the powerful. This was an intricate network, like a giant spider web, with each thread involving different interest groups and individuals. To thoroughly understand the relationship behind this, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen began a more detailed investigation.
They first gathered information from various channels, not missing any clues that might connect them to the powerful. Leveraging his extensive connections in the business world, Shen Qingchen quietly sought information from trusted partners. These partners spanned various industries, including finance, real estate, and high-end manufacturing. He met with them clandestinely in luxurious yet secluded private clubs or soundproofed offices, quietly inquiring about unusual behavior by certain influential figures.
A friend with considerable influence in the financial world informed Shen Qingchen of the recent suspicious flows of several large sums of money. These funds appeared to be scattered across various accounts, but upon in-depth analysis, they were ultimately linked to projects associated with several specific, mysterious organizations. Furthermore, powerful figures appeared to be behind these projects, using financial means to fund the illicit activities of these mysterious organizations.
Jiang Zhi began her investigation by focusing on the medical industry. Having worked in hospitals for many years, she was deeply familiar with the allocation of medical resources and the secrets hidden behind specialized medical projects. She discovered that members of certain powerful families frequently participated in seemingly ordinary but expensive medical experiments. These projects, ostensibly aimed at exploring new medical technologies, were in reality inextricably linked to illegal human modification experiments being conducted by shadowy organizations.
During the investigation, they also discovered some document clues. These documents were carefully hidden in various corners. Some were in abandoned old office filing cabinets, covered with dust and seemed to have been forgotten; some were in encrypted electronic databases that required complex cracking programs to access.
One document details a secret meeting between a powerful figure and top brass of a mysterious organization. The meeting took place at a remote mountain retreat, heavily guarded by armed personnel. The document details the details of the collaboration, including leveraging the powerful figure's political influence to facilitate the organization's illegal activities in certain areas, such as acquiring land for the construction of secret bases and ensuring the organization's illegal transactions passed customs inspections.
As the investigation deepened, they discovered that these powerful forces were not just simply colluding for profit, but were also involved in a deeper political conspiracy. Some powerful people seemed to be using the mysterious organization to realize their own political ambitions, attempting to manipulate social opinion and political trends by controlling this powerful and hidden organization.
A powerful family, long a mediocre presence on the political stage, has suddenly risen in recent years, gaining a significant voice in key decisions. Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen discover that this family's collaboration with a mysterious organization dates back decades, and they've gradually expanded their sphere of influence through a series of covert operations. They first use the mysterious organization to sow chaos in the local area, then intervene under the guise of maintaining stability to gain more power and resources.
Economically, the powerful provide the shadowy organization with numerous illicit sources of income. Through illicit means, they divert state-owned assets and public resources to enterprises controlled by the shadowy organization, making these companies appear legitimate while actually funding the organization's criminal activities. These enterprises span multiple sectors, from energy to entertainment, from communications to transportation, forming a vast network of interests.
Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen also discovered several underground trading venues associated with powerful individuals. These venues, hidden deep beneath the city or in abandoned factories in the suburbs, were where the powerful engaged in various illegal transactions with members of mysterious organizations, including the buying and selling of intelligence, the smuggling of contraband, and even the trafficking of human beings.
In order to gain a deeper understanding of how these powerful forces collude with the mysterious organization, they began to investigate some key figures. Some of these key figures are core members of the powerful families, and some are important contacts of the mysterious organization in communicating with the powerful.
They discovered that the second son of a powerful family, while superficially a playboy and indulging in a lavish social life, was actually a crucial link to a mysterious organization. He frequently frequented high-end clubs, where he secretly met with members of the mysterious organization. Following him, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen discovered that he was involved in planning and organizing numerous illegal transactions.
Another contact for a mysterious organization, originally a small businessman, was recruited by the organization and, through his cunning and resourcefulness, successfully infiltrated the circles of the powerful. He used his business identity as a cover to build a bridge of communication between the powerful and the mysterious organization. He often organized seemingly normal business gatherings, but in reality, they were a cover for illegal transactions between the two parties.
During their investigation, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen encountered numerous difficulties and dangers. A mysterious organization, seemingly aware of their actions, began conducting counter-reconnaissance operations. Several times, they narrowly escaped detection by the organization's assassins. During one operation to track a key individual, they were pursued by a mysterious group of men in black. These well-trained and agile individuals, driving black SUVs, relentlessly pursued Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen through the city streets.
