Prosecutor: "How did Gao Huai contact Mingdan Company? Since he was a classmate of Simingda and Wang Mudan, and this order took over two months to produce, how come Simingda and Wang Mudan didn't notice any flaws during such a long period? According to standard large-scale transactions, you should have inspected the goods frequently, right?"
Li Xiaoliang: "Within two months of production, Gao Huai contacted them using the name 'Wen Xun', and he always sent emails at night. Even the payments were transferred through a foreign company. He never called them. Simingda and Wang Mudan thought he was abroad and had no idea the contact was Gao Huai. In order not to affect the smooth progress of the transaction, Gao Huai asked me not to contact Simingda privately. All the details were handled by him alone."
Prosecutor: "What did you do after this batch of orders was shipped?"
Li Xiaoliang: "Five days after this batch of orders was shipped, Gao Huai stopped all business operations and dissolved the company. He gave Xiaoqi and me several tens of thousands of yuan each and asked us to return home. At that time, I was reluctant to leave Nanyou City, so I asked Gao Huai why he wanted to dissolve the company. He said that ever since he was defrauded of 2 million yuan by foreigners, his business has been bad. If the company continued to operate, he would lose more and more money. To reduce the losses, he had no choice but to close the company. I asked him what he would do after the company closed, and he told me not to ask, saying that he had his own arrangements. That's all I know."
Prosecutor: "After closing the company, did Gao Huai return to his hometown?"
Li Xiaoliang: "He has never returned to his hometown."
Prosecutor: "When did you find out that Gao Huai had not paid the balance for the goods you purchased from Mingdan Company?"
Li Xiaoliang thought for a moment and said, "It seemed like it was more than three months after the shipment. Simingda called me that day and asked me why I hadn't paid the balance. I said that the payment was handled overseas and I didn't know. He then asked me what Wen Xun's phone number was and why all the emails I sent him were bounced. I told him that I really didn't know anything. Then he got angry and called me a liar for stealing his goods without paying."
Prosecutor: "After you returned to your hometown, how many times did Simingda call you? When did you become convinced that it was a fraudulent transaction?"
Li Xiaoliang: "While I was in my hometown, Simingda called me three times, telling me he hadn't received the balance and couldn't contact Wen Xun. He suspected we were scammers. The third time, he told me he'd called the police and asked me to tell the truth, or I'd be held legally responsible. A few days later, police from Nanzhong City came to my hometown and took me to the Public Security Bureau for questioning. They told me they'd identified Gao Huai as the mastermind behind the deal and that he'd traveled to Country G. They told me I should cooperate with the investigation and froze all my accounts. A few days later, I returned to my hometown and was placed under residential surveillance. I hope this case will be resolved quickly to clear me of suspicion. Although I visited the factory and inspected the goods, I honestly didn't know Gao Huai hadn't paid them the balance."
