Chapter 61 Action

Zhang Guoyou is an inspector at the Sai Kung Police Station. About two and a half months ago, he received a report call. The person

on the other end of the phone said that there was something strange about the welfare home of Guangming Charity Foundation in Sai Kung. In the past few months, there would be trucks entering and leaving the welfare home frequently at dawn every week for several consecutive nights.

The person who reported it was on the roadside. He was woken up several times in the middle of the night and was very unhappy. One time when he went out, he met a staff member of the welfare home and asked him why the car came in and out at night and whether he could be more careful in the future.

The staff member's expression was a little stiff after hearing this. He explained that it was a procurement truck. He said that there were many children in the welfare home and the cost of buying vegetables on a daily basis was too high. Purchasing in large quantities could save some money. He also said that he would ask the driver to be careful in the future and be quieter.

The informant had no doubts after hearing this. She had a bad temper, but not to the point of being cold-blooded.

She had been to the nearby Guangming Welfare Home, where there were basically some disabled children, some were deaf, some were blind, and some even had brain problems.

Most people made the decision to adopt children not entirely out of kindness. They also hoped that after raising the children, they could rely on them to support them in their old age. So when they selected children, they would give priority to healthy and young children.

Those with disabilities like those in Guangming Welfare Home were basically impossible to be adopted.

So year after year, there were more and more children in Guangming Welfare Home. Even with the special care of charity funds and targeted donations from kind-hearted people, the financial pressure on nearby welfare homes was quite tight.

It is normal for the person in charge of the welfare home to choose to buy all kinds of daily necessities together in order to save money. So even if she was often woken up, she decided to forget it.

A few months passed like this. When she was woken up again one night, she suddenly remembered a problem - that's not right. If the welfare home wants to make purchases, shouldn't their people drive out? Why did that car just drive in from outside?

Could it be that wholesalers will deliver the goods to the door?

Yes, she knew that vegetable and meat wholesalers would deliver the goods to the vegetable market in the early morning, but there are many merchants in the vegetable market and the demand is huge! The welfare home has less than a hundred people in total. Even if they buy vegetables for ten days or half a month at a time, it is not enough to ask wholesalers to deliver the goods to the door, right?

Moreover, wholesalers usually have a single product. Vegetable wholesalers only sell vegetables, and meat wholesalers only sell meat. If that is the case, there shouldn’t be only one car at night!

Guangming Welfare Home is at the foot of the mountain, and there is only one way out, which is the one in front of her house. If there are other wholesalers delivering goods, she can’t miss it .

It’s not so absolute. After all, she is not woken up every night. Maybe some wholesalers drive smaller cars and make less noise when passing by, so she didn’t hear it.

But the doubts in her heart could not be dispelled. It happened that she had retired, so from that day on, she began to observe the vehicles passing by every night.

After recording for two months, she found that there was indeed only that one car.

It can't be said to be just one, because the vehicles that come are often changed. Sometimes it is a big truck, sometimes it is a small truck, sometimes it is a red car, and sometimes it is a blue car. But the time is very regular, basically coming once a week, and each time it comes around two in the morning and leaves before four.

She thinks it is very strange that the vehicles are often changed. After all, trucks are not cheap. Even if they are wholesalers, they can buy a few to deliver goods. How can they change them frequently

? And it takes too long to purchase once a week. It's summer now. Even if there is a refrigerator, it is difficult to keep vegetables for such a long time, right?

I always feel that there is a problem.

But when she mentioned it to her husband, her husband said that she thought too much. She thought that her husband would agree with her idea after she expressed her doubts, but his face changed instantly.

Her husband said that Guangming Welfare Home was under the Guangming Charity Foundation, which was owned by the wealthy Xu family. Even if there were any problems, what could she use to fight? He also said that it was rare for a person to be ignorant in life, and if she didn't want to bring disaster to her family, she shouldn't care.

She was just an ordinary woman. She had been struggling for a living in the first half of her life. It was not until her children came out to work in recent years that the burden on her was slightly lighter.

After hearing her husband's warning, she thought for a long time and finally made up her mind not to care.

But one day when she went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, she was chatting with one of the vendors and accidentally heard the other party say that the vegetables in Guangming Welfare Home were all sent by her family.

She recalled what the welfare home staff said half a year ago and found it strange, so she tried to test him: "It's easy to cooperate with the welfare home, right? I heard that you only need to deliver vegetables to them once a week."

The vegetable seller was surprised: "Who told you that? How is it possible to deliver vegetables once a week? Pickled vegetables are okay, but how can vegetables be kept for so long? Don't listen to what those aunts and uncles say. The Guangming Welfare Home is owned by the Xu family's Guangming Charity Foundation. Do you know Mr. Xu Changrong?"

After asking, he said without waiting for her to answer, "Mr. Xu Changrong is a famous philanthropist. His ancestors opened a welfare home. Although Mr. Xu Although they have become rich, they have not forgotten their roots. They often ask about the welfare home’s situation. The charity fund has also allocated a lot of food expenses for the welfare home. For example, my family cooperates with them. Every day when the vegetables are delivered, we have to deliver them to the welfare home. We have to choose the best ones. They must be fresh. We are very strict. "

The vegetable vendor thought she was fooled and wanted to clear the name of the welfare home. Not only did she tell her that her family supplied vegetables to the welfare home, she also pointed to the merchants in the vegetable market and told her which one supplied meat to the welfare home, which one supplied seafood, which one supplied food...

and their delivery time is usually at five or six in the morning.

She actually knew this.

Her family lives on the roadside, and if there is any movement outside, she can see it by looking up and out the window.

Before she realized something was wrong, she would occasionally glance outside and see vegetable vendors driving tricycles or vans to the welfare home,

but she would not care. The welfare home has many children and buys a large amount of vegetables and meat, so it is reasonable for the vendors to deliver to the door. After realizing something was wrong and asking the staff of the welfare home, she thought the welfare home had changed its purchasing method. In addition, in the past few months, she always stayed up until the early morning every day to record the time when the trucks came in and out.

Five or six o'clock was the time when she slept the soundest, so naturally she didn't know that the vegetable market vendors were still delivering vegetables to the welfare home regardless of wind or rain.

In the final analysis, she still fell into a misconception and didn't think of asking the vendors about this matter until she heard them talking about vegetables that day, and then she suddenly realized it.

It turned out that the doubt was here.

So the question is, if the welfare home has not changed its purchasing method, what are the trucks that pass by the door every week for?

She knows that she is just an ordinary person and should not delve into this matter for the sake of a stable life.

But every time she thinks of the children in the welfare home and sees the enthusiastic young people who come from far away to volunteer passing by the door, she can't forget her discovery, nor can she stand by and watch the bad things that may happen.

After struggling for a long time, she finally dialed Zhang Guoyou's phone number that she got by chance.

However, although she called the police, she didn't know much information. Because she was afraid of getting into trouble, she met with Zhang Guoyou and said that she would forget about these things after telling him about her findings and didn't intend to be his informant.

Zhang Guoyou expressed his understanding, and then contacted young people who often went to the welfare home to volunteer, and asked them to be his informant to enter the welfare home to observe if there were any problems.

With the information she gave, he squatted on the road leading to the welfare home for nearly a month. As expected, he waited for the relevant vehicles, recorded the model and license plate number, and quickly asked friends to inquire about the owner and other information.

About a week ago, Zhang Guoyou's investigation finally made new progress-he found that the Guangming Charity Foundation was covering up the gang's transfer of human trafficking.

To be more precise, it should be a guess.

Because he was unable to get deep into the gang and the welfare home, although Zhang Guoyou had a guess, he had no definite evidence. Because of this, he did not get the support of his superiors after reporting the matter.

His superiors believed that although most of the children in Guangming Welfare Home in Sai Kung were disabled and relatively easy to control, it was inevitable that the news would leak out due to the large number of people.

If there was really a problem in the welfare home, they would not be so high-profile. Not only did they accept help from volunteers for a long time, but they also often received the media and wealthy people who intended to donate. What's

more, Guangming Welfare Home was backed by the Xu family. If Zhang Guoyou could produce definite evidence, he could still investigate under pressure, but there was nothing. How could he approve the search warrant?

So the investigation came to a stalemate.

In addition, a robbery and murder case of a serious nature occurred in Sai Kung recently, and Zhang Guoyou was assigned to investigate that case, so the case of Guangming Welfare Home was delayed.

As a result, Zhang Guoyou had just driven back to the police station that day, and before he entered the door, he was stopped by the staff of the communication room and said that there was a letter for him.

"My letter?" Zhang Guoyou looked puzzled and got out of the car and walked into the communication room.

The letter he found was much larger than he thought, and it was very thick. It was filled with the largest envelope, and it felt like a document.

Because the car was blocking the door, Zhang Guoyou opened the envelope and checked that there was no dangerous items, then put the envelope on the passenger seat, parked the car and took it back to the office.

After entering the office and opening the envelope, Zhang Guoyou saw a stack of copies of the account books with Guangming Charity Foundation written on them. His expression instantly became serious, and he picked up the envelope to look at the recipient.

The sender's surname was Chi, and the mailing address was nearby, but... Zhang Guoyou remembered that no one lived at the address on the letter.

Maybe the sender didn't want to reveal his identity.

After confirming that he could not find more information from the envelope, Zhang Guoyou continued to look at the information inside.

He was not a professional accountant, and he didn't understand the account books very well, but he could guess the records of money laundering and the transfer of people with the help of Guangming Charity Foundation, even if they used code words, not to mention that this letter also contained the time and location of their next action.

After reading the information on the letter, Zhang Guoyou could no longer sit still, and took the information to the superintendent's office.

…

When Zhang Guoyou was excited after receiving the evidence, Xu Tianyang was sitting in the chairman's office of Guangming Charity Foundation with an ugly face.

He didn't expect Xu Changrong to be so ruthless. He wanted him to take over the dirty work, but he didn't intend to give him the corresponding rights, so that although he entered the company, he didn't even have the qualifications to check the past accounts.

He didn't even have to show up for anything in the fund. Now he just clocks in at the company on time every day and acts as a mascot.

It sounds like what he needs to do every day is similar to what Xu Tianen did before, but Xu Tianen has his father to plan for him, so he can be at ease as a waste, but he can't.

He had to get evidence of money laundering in the charity fund before he could report to the police that the Guangming Charity Foundation and the gang were collaborating in human trafficking, and pretend that he decided to report it because he saw something wrong in the accounts, thereby concealing the population transfer that he was about to be responsible for.

If he could not do anything like this, let alone turn over and inherit the Xu family, it would be good for him to survive under Xu Changrong's calculations.

He must break the situation.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Tianyang decided to find something to do for himself.

He asked someone to prepare a car, and planned to visit various welfare homes privately in the next few days. On the day of the action, he could just appear in the welfare home in Sai Kung with a legitimate reason.

Xu Changrong was so wary of him, so he naturally had to think more about himself and make his whereabouts reasonable.

In the busy private visit, the day of transfer soon came.

In fact, in the cooperation with the gang, the part that the welfare home is responsible for is very simple. The welfare home staff only needs to open the gate on time every week to let the gang members drive in, and then assist them to transfer the abducted people into the basement.

When the number of abducted people reaches a certain amount, they can then assist the gang members to transfer them out. During this period, the gang members will take care of the people and the subsequent work at sea.

Xu Tianyang's job is even simpler. He only needs to watch from the side while the welfare home staff assists the gang members in transferring the population.

So this matter does not actually require Xu Tianyang to show up. In the past few years, neither Xu Changrong nor Xu Tianen has shown up.

Anyway, whether it was the staff of the welfare home or the members of the cooperative gang, they had already done this well, and they had their own rules.

Xu Changrong asked Xu Tianyang to keep an eye on him, just because he was on guard against him, and wanted to drag him down so that he could never turn over.

It was precisely because he understood this that Xu Tianyang hated him so much.

"Wuwu..."

Xu Tianyang came back to his senses and saw a young woman who was dragged out with her mouth sealed, looking at him pleadingly, as if she wanted to ask him to save her.

But before he could do anything, the man dragging the young woman slapped her in the face: "What's your name, you bastard? Do you think anyone can save you today?" He then asked Xu Tianyang, "You don't want to save her, do you?"

After asking, he carefully looked at Xu Tianyang and deliberately said, "Since you are a new person sent by the charity fund, if you ask, I can give you a favor."

Xu Tianyang did not speak, he just turned his head to avoid the man's gaze, deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I don't care about these."

"Haha, I said, your charity fund says it is to save people, but in fact, everyone is more evil than us gangsters! You want both fame and profit!" The man said and laughed, dragging the woman to the car.

The woman had already shown disappointment when she heard Xu Tianyang's answer.

Yes, these people are devils, how can she dare to expect them to save her?

Being pushed into the truck, leaning against the wall, listening to the sobbing coming from all around, she thought that they were all doomed, and no one would come to save them.

She slowly closed her eyes and let the tears slide from the corners of her eyes.

But at this moment, there was a sudden "bang" sound outside, and the world seemed to be quiet, followed by an angry curse: "Damn! There are cops!"

The crying in the truck stopped. It

was not until the frequent gunshots outside that the crying changed from despair to tears of joy.

She also slowly opened her eyes. In the darkness, her pupils were amazingly bright. She looked outside the compartment and thought, is someone coming to save them?

The victims in the train were crying with joy because they were rescued, but the perpetrators outside the train all looked pale, and they all looked for cover and took out their guns.

Xu Tianyang didn't have a gun, so he just felt panicked. After hesitating for a moment, he quickly ran to the staff dormitory of the welfare home.

After entering the dormitory, Xu Tianyang quickly took off his clothes and went to bed, closing his eyes and pretending to fall asleep.

But with his eyes closed, it was difficult to stop thinking.

He couldn't help but wonder what was going on. Who called the police?

Xu Changrong?

Impossible.

Xu Changrong was more deeply involved in this matter than he was. He let him take over these things not only to make him a scapegoat, but also to stabilize the gang in the next few years, so that he could transfer assets and take Xu Tianen abroad.

The cooperation was discovered by the police in advance, and all of Xu Changrong's plans were ruined.

He couldn't call the police at this time.

Is that Xu Tianen?

Impossible, that's a fool, who doesn't know what Guangming Charity Foundation has done behind the scenes. Moreover, Xu Tianen himself has been the chairman of the charity foundation for several years. If he is exposed at this time, he can't escape.

Who is it?

Before Xu Tianyang could figure it out, the dormitory door was kicked open by the outside. He sat up suddenly, pretending to be sleepy and asked, "Who is it?"

The person didn't answer, but just pressed the switch of the door.

The room suddenly became bright, enough for the police at the door to see that Xu Tianyang was not carrying a gun, so they said, "Get up, squat down, hold your head, what's your name, and why are you here?"

Xu Tianyang hurriedly got out of bed and did everything the police said, then replied, "My name is Xu Tianyang, and I'm the chairman of Guangming Charity Foundation. I'm here today because I just took office and have been visiting various welfare homes privately these days. , I just happened to be here today. It was late when I finished, so I stayed and planned to stay for one night before going back. "

After explaining, Xu Tianyang raised his head and asked hesitantly: "Sir, I just heard a lot of noise outside. Was it gunshots? What happened?" Xu

Tianyang's expression was too real, and the police who came in were fooled by him, but he remembered his professionalism and did not answer Xu Tianyang. Instead, he pointed a gun at him and let him go out by himself.

This operation was not small in scale. The police station mobilized hundreds of police officers, so when they went out, the scene had been controlled, and the people on both sides who participated in the transfer of population were taken to the police car without exception.

But the police were still busy. There were more than 30 victims this time, all of whom were frightened and needed comfort. The orphanage staff gave them sleeping pills because they were afraid that the children would wake up in the middle of the night after hearing the noise. They also had to contact the hospital to arrange for someone to give them a physical examination.

As for Xu Tianyang, although he was found sleeping in the staff dormitory and his reason for appearing in Guangming Orphanage was reasonable, his identity as the chairman of the charity foundation made him unacceptable.

He was locked up alone in a police car.

After all the work was arranged, Zhang Guoyou, who was in charge of the welfare home's operations, opened the door of the police car that Xu Tianyang was riding in . After entering, he said, "Tell me, why are you here today

?" "I told you! I came here for a private visit today. It was already late when I finished my work, so I stayed in the welfare home." Xu Tianyang said, turning his head to look out the window, "Sir, what's going on outside? Why are there so many strangers in the welfare home?"

"You don't know?" Zhang Guoyou asked back, looking at Xu Tianyang and said, "Your welfare home is colluding with gangs and assisting them in human trafficking..."

"What?" Xu Tianyang stood up suddenly, his head hit the roof of the car, and then he sat back with a cry. After he recovered, he immediately explained anxiously, "How is it possible? Our Xu family has been doing charity for decades, and the Guangming Charity Foundation is well-known in Hong Kong. How could they do such a thing? If, if they really did such a thing, why did Dad call me back from England and let me work in the foundation? Although I am just an illegitimate child, Dad has always disliked me and refused to acknowledge me, but... How is it possible? Sir, you are lying to me, right?"

In just a few sentences, Xu Tianyang vividly portrayed the image of a poor son who was deceived and used by his father.

Zhang Guoyou's face was motionless. He didn't believe that Xu Tianyang really knew nothing and came to the welfare home for a simple private visit. This was too coincidental.

But Zhang Guoyou did not arbitrarily reject Xu Tianyang's words. He only said, "You can keep these words at the police station. If you are really innocent, the judiciary will not wrongly accuse anyone."

"Yes, yes, you are right," Xu Tianyang pretended to be disappointed and agreed. After hanging his head for a while, he asked, "Sir, can I call a lawyer after arriving at the police station?"

"Yes."

...

[Too good at acting!]

In order to know the results of the action as soon as possible, Wen Yue deliberately asked the system to go online at two o'clock in the morning to wake her up before going to bed at night, and then tiptoed into the bathroom, yawning and watching the system's real-time broadcast. Wen Yue thought

that since Xu Tianyang was caught in the act in this life, it would be impossible for him to escape the punishment of the law as smoothly as in the original book. But I didn't expect this guy to be such a good actor. He can make the dead come alive.

After watching Xu Tianyang's performance, Wen Yue completely understood why the original body fell into his love trap and couldn't get out.

If you don't know Xu Tianyang's true face, it's really hard for ordinary people to think that this person doesn't tell the truth. Like the police who first discovered him, they were almost fooled by him soon?

However, no matter how good Xu Tianyang is at talking, it's not easy for him to get out of this life.

In fact, Xu Tianyang's behavior in this life is the same as in the original book. He used a pseudonym, grew a long beard, messed up his half-long hair, and put on a duckbill cap for a simple disguise.

However, in the original novel, the transfer did not fail, and Xu Tianyang was not arrested, so until the Xu family fell, only Xu Changrong and the vice chairman of the charity foundation knew that he had participated in this operation.

In the original novel, one of these two people died of a heart attack, and the other was bribed to keep silent. Others were more familiar with the vice chairman and Xu Changrong, and could not remember Xu Tianyang who only came once under an alias.

So he not only managed to escape legal sanctions, but also turned himself into a hero who exposed the true face of Guangming Charity Foundation.

This life is different. Xu Tianyang was caught on the spot. Even if he could portray himself as a victim who was used, the police would not believe it and would definitely let other people identify him.

When Xu Tianyang was arrested, he had not had time to shave his beard, nor had he had time to take care of his half-long hair. Even if he took off his deliberately pulled-down duckbill cap, people who had seen him would definitely be able to recognize him easily.

If it really doesn't work, Wen Yue can also send a video of Xu Tianyang's "supervision" to the police, which will definitely hammer him to death and let him get the silver bracelet and stay in prison for a few more years.
