Aditya Kuhn knew from his slightly frightened look that the other party had discovered something, and he just smiled disdainfully.
Then he took the lead and walked towards Jerome Tapa's house. This behavior of usurping the throne made Jerome Tapa, a big boss, eyelids twitch and teeth clenched. He had never suffered such a loss before, but the situation was special now, so he could only accept it with a pinch of his nose.
When Aditya Kun arrived at Tapa's house, the door was opened from the inside. The owner who followed him was so shocked that his eyelids twitched. There was no light on in the house, and he could not see what was going on inside through the dark doorway.
Mr. Thapa, the owner of the house, was a little scared when he saw the open door. He didn't know if he could come out alive after entering. Fortunately, he didn't have time to think too much. After Aditya Kune entered the room, he turned on the light in the living room on the first floor as if he was in his own home.
Tapa looked around the room with the help of the light, but he didn't see any other people. This made him hesitate for a moment. He had just seen someone open the door for them, and he could vaguely see a dark shadow flash behind the door. How come he couldn't see the other person after turning on the light?
Perhaps it was the fear of the unknown. Although Jerome Tapa had returned to the home where he had lived for many years, he could not feel any warmth of home. Instead, he felt a creepy chill all over his body.
As a guest, Aditya Kun did not have as many concerns as Mr. Tapa. He came to the living room and sat down on the sofa very casually. He looked so familiar with the place that no one would believe that it was his first time here.
"Mr. Thapa, please sit here!"
Jerem Tapa was very upset by the other party's behavior of taking the initiative, but at this moment he had to force a smile and nodded to the other party:
...
...
"Okay, okay, Aditya, would you like something to drink? I have whiskey, rum, and fine wine."
Seeing that the other party seemed to be trying to take back the initiative, Adiya's mouth curled up slightly, and he waved his hand nonchalantly and said:
"Mr. Tapa, it's getting late now. Let's finish our talk early. If we want to drink, we should have another chance later."
Jerem Thapa didn't care about being rejected by Aditya. He smiled and sat down opposite him.
"Okay, okay, I'll drink it next time. I wonder what Aditya wants to tell me?"
"Actually, I have already told you the reason why I came to see you in the car. As an old gang in Rio de Janeiro, you should be very familiar with the local smuggling counterparts, right?"
Aditya Kuhn didn't want to waste time talking to this old fox, so he went straight to the point.
Just now in the car, Jerome Tapa had heard that the other party wanted to cooperate with the smugglers. In addition, his family was in the hands of the other party, so he did not dare to resist and could only nod and say:
"Yes, except for a few fishermen who occasionally make guest appearances, we all know most of the professions. What do you need me to do?"
At this time, Jerem Thapa behaved very obediently, and looked like a well-behaved man ready to be driven by the master. Aditya just smiled indifferently, as he didn't believe that an old gangster who had been in the underworld for decades would be so obedient.
However, the answer he heard from the other party still made him very happy. This showed that his choice to start from the gang was correct. If he wanted to quickly find the traces of these smugglers, these guys who were originally engaged in this industry should know more about it than the police.
After all, competitors are enemies. People who compete for food in the same place should have some friction with each other. Some people may not understand their friends, but it is impossible not to understand their enemies. Therefore, these competitors must have a deep understanding of each other.
After getting the answer he wanted, Aditya Kuhn nodded and took out a black leather notebook and a pen from his jacket pocket, and handed them directly to Jerem Thapa and said:
"Write down everything you know about everyone."
Jerem Thapa was a little confused when he saw Aditya Kuhn's actions. Didn't he say he wanted to cooperate? Why did he have to write down the information about these people?
This doesn't look like cooperation! Could it be that the military is trying to crack down on smuggling and deliberately came here to extract information?
Thinking of this, his brain moved, and he pretended to be a little embarrassed, picked up the pen on the table, opened the notebook, and began to write slowly.
Seeing the other person's look, Aditya Kune smiled indifferently. He believed that the other person was a smart man. No matter what he said to the other person, he would not easily believe himself, just like he would not believe the other person.
If the other party really believed that he was really going to cooperate with the smugglers based on his few words, he would not have survived until now. He must have thought that the military was going to take action against them.
The smarter a person is, the more he knows how to seize opportunities. Aditya believes that the other party will find a way to list all the people who are hostile to him, and this is exactly what he wants. After he gets these lists, he will visit the people on the list one by one and ask them to check for omissions and fill in the gaps.
Gradually, all the forces involved in smuggling in Rio de Janeiro will be exposed. At the same time, the big smugglers will definitely have connections with smugglers in other regions. As long as a breakthrough is opened in each place and then the same method is followed, the task will naturally be easily accomplished.
At first, Jerem Thapa seemed a little hesitant, but as time passed, his writing seemed to become more and more fluent, and the list in the notebook also increased little by little, and the number of names in the notebook exceeded Aditya Kuhn's expectations.
He thought it would be good to have only five or six families, but he didn't expect that Jerome Tapa took almost half an hour to stop writing.
When Aditya Kuhn picked up his notebook to check, he found that this guy had recorded all the fishing boats he knew that occasionally engaged in smuggling business, and even sorted them from large to small.
His own Tapa family was hidden in the list of fishermen who only had one fishing boat and occasionally made a small fortune along the way. Seeing this situation, Aditya showed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.
“Very good, Mr. Thapa, I see your sincerity. Next, our people will check everyone on this list one by one. I hope there is nothing missing from your list.
After we have investigated thoroughly, I will visit you again if necessary, but I hope that next time we meet, we don't have to meet under these circumstances, what do you think?"
Aditya's words made Jerem Tapa breathe a sigh of relief. It was not until this moment that he was sure that the other party would not hurt him, at least not now.
He waved his hands repeatedly and said:
"Don't worry, Aditya. You can tell from the number of people on this list that I will tell you everything I know. I will not hide anything from you. Unless someone is using other channels that I don't even know about to ship the goods, this list is absolutely complete. You can go ahead and investigate."
Then he took out a business card from his jacket pocket and pushed it in front of Aditya Kuhn.
"This is my business card. It has my home and office phone numbers. Next time you want to see me, you can call me directly. You don't have to come to me. I will be there whenever you call."
The expression on Jerome Thapa's face was indescribably flattering as he said this.
In response, Aditya Kuhn just smiled, put away the notebook, put it back into his coat pocket, stood up, stretched out his right hand to Jerem Thapa and said:
"Thank you for your cooperation Uncle Tapa. It's getting late, so I won't disturb you and your family to rest. I'll call you if I need anything."
After saying that, he turned and left without hesitation.
Aditya Kune's clean and efficient style made Mr. Tapa a little overwhelmed for a moment. This was not what he expected. The other party replaced his driver silently and controlled his family, and only took away a list of smugglers from him.
Isn't this a bit too trifling? Should I take out a large sum of cash and give it to the other party as a gift in order to gain his favor? However, the other party did not give me any chance to win me over and left without hesitation.
He watched Aditya Kuhn walk out of the house and get into the back seat of another car parked not far from his home. He breathed a sigh of relief only after the vehicle was completely out of his sight.
Then he ran quickly to the room upstairs. Although he was over 50 years old, his son was only five years old this year. For him, who had a son in his old age, the importance of his son was unquestionable, as he was the heir to their family business.
As for women, how could a gang leader lack women? He would never have married his wife if she had not given birth to his son.
So, the first place he went after going upstairs was his son's room. After making sure that his son was safe, he went to check on his wife and daughter's rooms. After making sure that everyone was in good health and their lives were not threatened, and they were just in a coma, he was completely relieved.
The experience tonight was really too exciting for him. Although he had been pretending to be calm, only he knew how nervous he was. He did not have many feelings for Aditya Kuhn, and he was even very wary of him now. From his words today, he felt that he should have noticed something, which made him feel a little panicked.
After he checked every room in the house one by one and confirmed that there was no one else at home, he locked all the doors and windows, then returned to the sofa in the living room, sat down on the seat where Aditya Kuhn had just sat, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
As a result, he sat there for the whole night. No one knew what Jerome Tapa was thinking about in the second half of the night. At dawn the next day, he picked up the phone next to the sofa and made a call.
When the sun rose high, in an inconspicuous house less than one kilometer away from Jerem Tapa's house, Aditya Kuhn had just got up when a subordinate came to report to him.
"Sir, Jerome Tapa made three calls this morning. According to our wiretapping, the first call was to Cebrolo Creevey, reminding him to scale back his business and be wary of our investigation. Judging from the content of the call, the relationship between the two does not seem to be a competitive relationship as he said."
"Oh! That's interesting. Who were the other two calls made to?"
"There were two other calls, one of which was to the owner of a trading company that was not on the list, also to warn the other party to be careful of a possible investigation.
Another call was made to a director of the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau.”
"Calling the boss of a trading company who is not on the list? That's interesting. I will immediately arrange for someone to conduct a comprehensive investigation on this trading company boss. At the same time, I will also keep a close eye on the director of the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau.
I want to hear the recording of the phone call between Jerome Thapa and Cebreloa Creevey."
"Yes, sir!"
Then the two of them came to another room. Adiya picked up a headset and put it on his head, turned on the recording device and started listening. As time passed, Adiya couldn't help but smile. After listening to the recording, Adiya took off the headset and said to the soldier beside him:
"The person who was responsible for monitoring Jerome Tapa was not discovered by him!"
"Don't worry, sir. Our people are all professionals. It's impossible for him to find out if we follow a bunch of hooligans like them."
"Very good. Don't let your guard down. Jerome Tapa is not as simple as he appears. They have a lot of influence in the local area. Maybe an inconspicuous pedestrian on the side of the road is their spy. Don't let him notice anything unusual."
"Yes, sir, I will remind my brothers again."
"Very good, let's take a look at his movements today to see if he will visit other people. You need to record all the people he has visited or had contact with.
I will go visit his mortal enemy according to the list he gave me to see if the list he gave us is true. "
"Yes, sir!"
The subordinates listened to Aditya Kuhn's orders, stood at attention, saluted, and turned to leave.
As intelligence officers, they certainly would not believe Jerome Tapa's words. They had to verify each list one by one to determine whether it was true or false, because if they were not careful, they might become tools for these bastards to eliminate dissidents.
This is something they absolutely cannot accept, so from the very beginning they could not fully trust the intelligence provided by the other party. They would only treat everything provided by the other party as a reference, and finally the intelligence submitted to the headquarters had to be verified by themselves one by one.
Next, the intelligence team led by Aditya Kuhn began to check one by one the people on the list, the people who Jerem Tapa had contacted but did not provide, and the list supplemented by his opponents.
It has to be said that the efficiency of the Second Section of the Logistics Department is very high. In less than three days, they compiled a list of all gangs and businessmen engaged in smuggling trade in Rio de Janeiro. At the same time, through the list of partners in other major cities provided by these people, they compiled a list of people engaged in smuggling trade throughout Brazil.
When Aditya Kuhn handed the list to Fang Lang's office, Fang Lang had to express his appreciation for this guy's work ability.
