The next morning, at an intersection in Central, Anderson's car collided violently with a large truck whose brakes had failed.
The car rolled more than ten meters before crashing into another car.
The driver, Anderson, and his assistant inside the car died at the scene.
The truck crashed through the guardrail and hit a tree before coming to a stop.
The driver, his face covered in blood, got out of the car, took a couple of steps, and then collapsed to the ground.
"What? Anderson is dead?"
The Inspector General of Revenue, Milton Beth, stood up in shock, his face showing disbelief.
Just two days ago, they were discussing how to deal with Shen Dong.
The fact that he died today filled Milton Beth with a strong sense of unease.
The assistant said, "Mr. Anderson was hit by a speeding truck on his way to work."
Milton Beth asked, "Where's the truck driver?"
The assistant said, "The truck driver is in the hospital receiving emergency treatment."
"Rescue? You mean he was in trouble too?"
"Yes. The truck's brakes failed, it first hit Mr. Anderson's car, then broke through the guardrail, and finally crashed into a large tree. The doctor said that fortunately, the people around him brought him to the hospital in time, otherwise, the driver would have been dead."
What did the transportation department say?
"It was an accident. They checked the brake pads and found no signs of human intervention."
"Okay, I understand."
After the assistant left, a glint flashed in Milton Beth's eyes.
She was almost certain that this matter was 100% related to Shen Dong.
As expected of someone from a club, their moves were swift, ruthless, and precise!
"Bang bang bang"
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Milton Beth sat back down in her chair.
Rupert approached Milton Beth with a document and said, "Director, we have conducted a thorough investigation into the financial affairs of the Ascension Group and found no problems."
Rupert placed the materials on his desk and waited quietly for Milton Beth's thunderous outburst.
He knew exactly what Milton Beth wanted, but he simply didn't have the guts to do it.
Rupert had just heard about Anderson's situation, and it nearly scared him to death.
Just as Rupert was preparing to deal with Shen Dong, the head of the American conglomerate got into trouble. If this traffic accident had nothing to do with Shen Dong, Rupert would never believe it.
"Bang"
Sure enough, after reading the materials, Milton Beth slammed her hand on the table and said sharply, "Is this the answer you gave me?"
Rupert smiled wryly and said, "Director, Shen Dong's finance department has done a very good job of keeping the accounts. We really can't find anything."
Milton Beth stared intently at Rupert and asked, "Did Chen Dong threaten you?"
Rupert immediately replied, "Yes, but we're not afraid; we just haven't found any vulnerabilities."
Milton Beth took a deep breath and said, "You can go out now."
After Rupert left, Milton Beth sat in her chair and gently rubbed her temples.
She had heard countless people say how amazing Shen Dong was, but now Milton Beth finally felt the immense pressure he brought.
By sending people to investigate Tengfei Group's accounts, Shen Dong is essentially aware of his stance. It seems that Shen Dong's next target will be him.
Thinking of this, Milton Beth suddenly felt a sense of panic.
Andrei's death caused a great stir among the American financial groups and factions.
No one expected Shen Dong to be so ruthless, actually having someone run over and kill Andrei.
"Hey, Mr. Shen, haven't you gone too far?"
Upon learning of this, Zhuang Wenfa immediately called Shen Dong.
Shen Dong was certainly not foolish enough to tell Zhuang Wenfa the truth, so he smiled and said, "Director Zhuang, I didn't understand what you meant."
"Andrei was killed in the accident."
"Oh, thank goodness. It's a good thing for me to have one less opponent."
"Didn't you send someone to do it?"
"Absolutely not. I've already reformed, how could I do such a thing? By the way, isn't the driver at the hospital? We can have the police investigate thoroughly."
"The man was a terminal cancer patient. He had no relatives except for an elderly woman. He died at 11 a.m. this morning."
"Damn, this guy is so pitiful. I'll send this lonely old lady to a nursing home and do my best to ensure she has a happy old age."
Zhuang Wenfa was silent for a moment, then said, "Aren't you worried that people will say you hired someone to commit murder?"
Shen Dong laughed heartily and said, "Just do good deeds and don't worry about the future. People can say whatever they want, so why should I stop doing good deeds? What a joke."
Zhuang Wenfa laughed and said, "Mr. Shen, the longer I get to know you, the more I admire you."
Shen Dong said, "I take your words as a compliment."
After speaking with Zhuang Wenfa, Shen Dong took Jimmy to the hospital and talked with the driver's mother for a while. He then assigned people to handle the driver's funeral arrangements and take care of the old lady.
The police officers in charge of the accident never expected that Shen Dong would visit the deceased and the old lady at the hospital during this sensitive period.
Wouldn't this be tantamount to publicly admitting his relationship with the driver?
On the way back, Jimmy asked the same question.
Shen Dong said domineeringly, "I want them to know that this is what we did. Even if they know, what can they do to us without evidence? Jimmy, our Tengfei Group has become number one in Hong Kong, much stronger than Li Ka-shing and the other three major families. The US government and US conglomerates obviously haven't realized this, so I'm going to use Andre's death to tell them that if they go against our Tengfei Group, they should be prepared to go to hell."
