"Their company is amazing. They even give 50 eggs to someone to inflate a pump. Wow, their company is so powerful!
Fifty! Fifty eggs! She counted on her fingers.
"The market gives out two eggs at most, but this company gives out fifty!"
"Li Jianghai had been waiting for this, to let the words drop to the ground. "How could there be no money? You didn't see it with your own eyes. Those people who came to invest all carried suitcases with money!"
As he spoke, he gestured with great emotion, his arms spread out half a meter wide.
"You don't know, when the people from their company invited us, the future partners who were visiting, to dinner, they always went to a very fancy restaurant. You know the abalone rice?"
The two of them talked for a long time without making any sense, and only then did Public Security Officer Xu Qiang realize that something was wrong, something was very wrong!
"Aunt Fang, you two wouldn't..."
"Ah, what did you say?"
After repeated persuasion from Public Security Officer Xu Qiang, Li Guifang finally revealed the fact that a pyramid scheme organization used the company's gimmick of recruiting partners to defraud money!
Officer Xiao Zhang was also anxious. "Have you been scammed out of money? This is obviously a scam!"
Li Jianghai's face was filled with suspicion. "No way! Their company is so impressive, with photos of me and the boss hanging on the wall!"
What kind of scam? You're putting it that way, it's an investment!
But this time, when I went there, several people who had paid money had become gold and silver shareholders.
Unfortunately, I didn’t bring that much money this time. I’ll take more next time and pay later!”
"So much money, how much money do you mean?"
Li Jianghai counted on his fingers: "Xiao Yin'e invested 5,000, Chen Sijin invested 3,000, Deng Cuilan invested 800, and Zhao Changshun invested 1,800... That adds up to a lot of money!"
"What? Xiao Yin'e said she was a shill, so the five thousand doesn't count!" Li Guifang added at the right time!
"Oh, yes, yes, that's five thousand six, that's a lot of money!"
After the police officers heard the whole story, their faces changed.
Logically speaking, since this incident was so explosive, with so many people involved and such a huge amount of money involved, they should have just raided that den directly.
But the problem right now is that there hasn't been a single victim who has officially reported the crime. Even if they were to grab their weapons and raid that den...
Their arrests will be completely untenable because there was no report, no basis for filing a case, and no testimony from the victim.
By then, if things go wrong, you might even be punished for handling the case in violation of regulations.
There was a long silence in the police station.
Li Guifang looked at this and that, then hesitated and said, "Comrade Public Security, how about this? I go and find all the old neighbors who were cheated?"
Officer Xu Qiang shook his head and said, "It's too late. By the time we gather everyone, the scammers will have gotten wind of it and already fled."
His eyes suddenly lit up, "Wait, you just mentioned that Aunt Xiao..."
The lights in the police station seemed particularly bright in the middle of the night.
Xu Qiang, a few police officers, and Li Guifang and her husband gathered in a circle, their heads huddled together and whispered to each other for a long time.
"Like this... and like this again..." Policeman Xu Qiang gestured in a low voice, and Policeman Xiao Zhang interrupted and added from time to time.
Li Guifang listened with a frown and smacked her lips: "This plan sounds like a half-finished product..."
"There's nothing we can do," Officer Zhang said, spreading his hands helplessly. "There's not enough evidence right now. We can only take it one step at a time."
Li Jianghai yawned: "Then let's go on..."
"Follow this first." Officer Xu Qiang handed over a piece of paper. "Remember, don't alert the enemy."
When Li Guifang and her husband walked out of the police station, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
On the deserted street, only a few dim street lights were still on.
Li Guifang wrapped her coat tightly around her and suddenly noticed that Li Jianghai was in a daze.
"What are you thinking about?" She poked her husband.
Li Jianghai scratched his head: "I'm wondering... if I can still eat abalone rice..."
"How dare you bring that up!" Li Guifang pretended to hit him, then suddenly lowered her voice, "Wait until this is over, and see how I'll deal with you!"
The night wind blew through the empty streets, and the shadows of the two people were stretched out long under the street lights.
The sound of dogs barking in the distance made the night seem even more quiet.
At that time, they could never have imagined that the development cycle of such a case would be so long!
