In fact, Tong Huahan knew that Team Leader Ning's invitation to him was definitely not just for a simple meal. He quickly replied, "As long as it is within my power, I will do my best!"
He didn't dare refuse their request, after all, it was the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, and no one dared to go against their wishes! Fortunately, although Team Leader Ning had a cold demeanor, he was generally quite polite!
"I would like to ask Mr. Tong to cooperate in examining the original deposit and withdrawal slips of your Yong'an Bank's depositors, as well as your general settlement ledger!" Ning Zhiheng's words immediately startled Tong Huahan!
"I'm sorry, I don't think I understood what you meant!" Tong Huahan said awkwardly.
So Ning Zhiheng patiently explained the matter to him in detail.
Finally, Tong Huahan understood: "You mean, a Japanese spy has been using Yong'an Bank to transfer funds, and someone in the bank's upper echelons has erased the spy's account transaction records. Now you want to check the original documents! Is that right?"
Ning Zhiheng's words shocked Tong Huahan. He never expected that the Yong'an Bank where he had been working would have a Japanese spy infiltrating him, and right next to him. The problem happened to be with the accounts he was in charge of. He immediately felt uneasy!
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "That's what we mean. Don't worry, we trust you very much, Mr. Tong. Otherwise, we would have taken you back to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department directly instead of inviting you here!"
Mr. Tong, may I ask you a question? Between General Manager Xie Haochu and Assistant Manager Geng Boming, who do you think is most likely a Japanese spy?
Tong Huahan shook his head and said, "We rarely communicate outside of work. I'm just the bookkeeper. General Manager Xie Haochu rarely shows up. Most of the time, the bank's business is overseen by Assistant Manager Geng Boming!"
He hesitated for a moment before speaking again: "Because Assistant Manager Geng Boming is responsible for most of the daily management, every time I hand over the general accounts to him, he will then hand them over to General Manager Xie Haochu."
Both of them had the opportunity to alter the accounts. After the bi-weekly account audit, the master ledger was stored with me, but I wasn't capable of checking it again. Finding problematic accounts among so many was too much work; I usually just sealed them up. This latest account audit had only been going on for a few days!
If I absolutely have to choose one, I think Assistant Manager Geng Boming is more suspicious. If you ask me, why don't you arrest him and interrogate him?
Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but chuckle. This Tong Huahan really had guts. He explained, "We can't alert them, otherwise all the spy accounts will soon give up and no more funds will be deposited into them. Yong'an Bank will then be useless as a funding channel, and all the effort we put into finding the clues will be wasted!"
Hearing this, Tong Huahan knew that Team Leader Ning was playing the long game. He said with difficulty, "I understand. You want to secretly reconcile the original documents with the general ledger. Of course, that's fine, but the workload is too heavy. In the past, the accounts were summarized by several accountants who would organize the original documents on the same day, and then do the final accounting every half month. Only then would I start doing the accounting. It's difficult for me to complete this workload by myself."
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "Of course we know that it will be difficult for Mr. Tong to complete this task, so we have mobilized enough accounting and finance personnel. As long as you are willing to cooperate, Mr. Tong, it will be completed soon."
Upon hearing this, Tong Huahan nodded quickly: "I will definitely cooperate. Team Leader Ning, please give me your instructions."
“We need to enter your office for a surprise inspection. I’d like to know how many guards are on duty in your office at night?” Ning Zhiheng asked.
“Our bank’s main security work is in the vault. There’s only one guard on duty in the office, but all the locks are the most secure. Of course, I have the key, so that’s not a problem!” Tong Huahan quickly nodded in agreement.
"In other words, as long as we get rid of this guard, everything will be fine!" Ning Zhiheng smiled, it seemed that today's goal had been successfully achieved.
He gestured for them to join him and said, "Mr. Tong, then I'll leave everything to you. Please enjoy your meal now, and we can talk as we go!"
