Modified later] Early the next morning, Mo Zhi unexpectedly received a call from Brother Lu.
This guy is as exaggerated as ever:
"Unpredictable brother, how have you been these past few days?"
"I guess it's not a good life. Although Bancarol is a provincial capital city, the Hesse people...hehe, you know, the whole city stinks."
"Hesse women are pretty good, but unfortunately, brother, you are a conscientious person and never flirt with women... Hey, I have to advise you now, let go... Do you understand? Men may have to let go. , don’t be trapped by those rules and regulations, otherwise your life will be boring.”
I'm almost becoming a "sex devil" here in the southern tribe... Unexpectedly complained in his heart, and quickly echoed:
"Thanks for your concern, bro. I'm doing pretty well, bro."
"Hahahaha..." Lu Yang laughed heartily and then got to the point:
"I'm calling you just to inform you about my situation."
"After you left last time, I have been secretly keeping an eye on Geng Gaofeng of Dongcheng City Trading Company, but... this old boy has not done anything unusual during this time. He rarely goes out and spends every day huddled in the company. , there is really no progress.”
"I even doubt that this old boy is really from the Shadow Organization or the Southern Tribe..."
If Lu Yang hadn't mentioned this matter, Mu Zhi would have almost forgotten... When he went to Dongcheng City last time, in addition to asking Captain Lu to act out his character in a play, he also asked Captain Lu to act out his character when leaving. Tell him to continue to keep an eye on Geng Gaofeng.
It's not that he is unpredictable and forgetful, but he really doesn't have much hope for Brother Lu, and he is already ahead of Lu Yang in his airborne investigation, which is thousands of miles away from Dongcheng City.
Mo Zhi smiled: "Brother Lu, you have to keep working hard, don't give up!"
"We have been able to confirm that there is something wrong with Geng Gaofeng. If we follow his investigation, we will definitely find clues to the Southern Tribe or the Shadow Organization. That will be a great achievement!"
"With this credit, Brother Lu, you will be stable in Pandora for the rest of your life, and you can at least take another step forward."
"Hahaha, my unpredictable brother, I can lend you some good words!" Lu Yang laughed happily again, his tone gradually lowered, and he said solemnly:
"Brother, I was just joking. Although I didn't find any clues from the tracking,... I gained something in other aspects."
"Oh?" Mo Zhi was suddenly surprised.
"Ahem..." Lu Yang coughed twice and said solemnly:
"I saw that the tracking was not making much progress, so I changed my direction decisively and secretly checked the resume of Geng Gaofeng. Hehehe... I probably know who the person behind Geng Gaofeng is, or... Who is behind Dongcheng Trading Company!"
"I'll tell you in detail... Geng Gaofeng made his fortune about twenty-five years ago. At that time, Dongcheng City Trading Company was just established, and it was still a little-known small company. This trading company's first pot of gold , it is a project that was obtained by the Dongcheng City Council - the statue of the Immortal God and the expansion of Dongcheng Tiemin Square."
"It was incredible that a trading company could actually get a construction project. So, I secretly went to the archives of the city hall and retrieved the original project information..."
"The project is completely legal and compliant, and there are no loopholes on paper. However, brother, I was not discouraged. I immediately thought of how a trading company obtained the engineering construction qualification. Hehehe... I have to say, old man Brother, I am quite sensitive in this aspect, and I found a clue from this aspect, and in the engineering qualification attachment of Dongcheng City Trading Company, I found a name that surprised me a little."
"East City Speaker, Freeman Bolton!"
Hearing this name, Mu Zhi almost opened his mouth.
He really didn't expect that Lu Yang would actually conduct an investigation from this aspect and connect two suspected targets in Dongcheng City, namely Dongcheng Trading Company and the film organization.
Unpredictable frowned slightly, while quickly sorting out the information in his mind, he said into the microphone:
"Brother Lu, continue."
"Yeah!" Lu Yang nodded repeatedly:
"Of course, at that time, Freeman Bolton was just the deputy director of the Engineering Department, which was far from the current position of speaker... The reason why I noticed his name was because This Freeman Bolton is now half of the East City Federation."
"That's right, the engineering qualification of Dongcheng Trading Company is signed by Freeman Bolton. In other words, the engineering qualification of Dongcheng Trading Company to participate in the federal tender was granted by this guy."
"Let's review it from the beginning. I think you should understand, brother. Geng Gaofeng's Dongcheng Trading Company has a relationship with Freeman Burton. At that time, he was participating in federal projects to make money. Haha, Freeman was the deputy director of the Engineering Department. Mann Bolton urgently obtained qualifications for them."
"That's right." Mo Zhi nodded silently in approval.
"Haha..." Lu Yang smiled proudly:
"This is just one thing, and the inevitable connection between the two cannot be determined."
"However, brother, I climbed along the pole and paid special attention to the connections between Dongcheng Trading Company and Freeman Bolton in other aspects. Sure enough, I discovered some clues..."
"After the original project, Dongcheng Trading Company earned the first pot of gold from the federal government, and then officially started the trading business. They purchased grain from the Southern Province, red wine from Saigon Province, and purchased from the Black Sea Province. Seafood... In short, their trading business soon spread throughout the continent."
"One thing that made this company take off again was... nine years ago, they took over an official supply chain in Dongcheng City. In other words, the entire Dongcheng City's grain was traded by this business. Corporate Transportation Supplies.”
"Dongcheng City is located in a hilly area with little farmland. Almost all the city's food supply is purchased by the federal government... Can you understand? My unpredictable brother?"
"Well, this is equivalent to eating public food from the federal government in Upper East City." Mo Zhi nodded again.
"Yes, that's it!" Lu Yang's clapping sound came from the microphone:
"This supply chain allows Dongcheng City Trading Company to bear almost no transportation and warehousing risks, and almost guarantees the profit of the entire city's food rations... thus allowing this company to rise rapidly."
"Of course, the above is not the point. The point is... Of course, this supply chain also needs to bid. At that time, there were four companies participating in the bidding, hahaha... Dongcheng Trading Company Finally stood out.”
Things were not unpredictable... The unpredictable director took a deep breath: "You mean, the fact that Geng Gaofeng finally won the bid was also related to this city speaker Freeman Bolton?"
"That's right, brother, you can tell the truth! Hahaha..." Lu Yang said with a smile: "Brother, I broke my leg investigating this matter, although Foley was not found in the bidding file records at that time. Man Burton's name, but..."
"Brother, I was clever and secretly went to the other three companies that participated in the bidding. Guess what?"
"One of the companies has gone bankrupt. Needless to say, the general manager of one of the other two companies is still in office. I pointed a gun at his head and forcibly asked him about the original bidding situation... Well, He said that he had received a replacement condition from City Council Speaker Freeman Bolton, which cost him five hundred gold dollars to change the bid. In the end, he lowered the indicators and failed to meet the project standards, which was equivalent to giving up the bidding."
"And for another company, it was even more obvious. The person in charge of that company had died, not long after the tender... So, I finally found the widow of the person in charge of the company, and the widow saw us She gave up on entering the house with a team of inspectors armed with live ammunition, she said... Before the bidding, her husband once received a phone call. It was said that it was from City Speaker Freeman Burton. , invite him to meet.”
"Unpredictable brother, can you guess something?"
Unpredictable sighed: "It should be... It was also the same as the previous company, threatening it to give up the bidding, or replace it with other resources... However, the two sides should not have reached an agreement later, City Speaker Freeman ·Having taken advantage of Bolton's blackmail, will he be silenced?"
"Not bad, not bad!" Lu Yang chuckled:
"Both of the companies that failed to win the bid were contacted by Mayor Freeman Burton. This is definitely not a coincidence."
"Another thing that is not a coincidence is that...the two key development nodes of Dongcheng Trading Company have the shadow of Freeman Bolton behind them. We can almost confirm that Dongcheng City Mayor Freeman Bolton "Dun, it should be the thick leg that Geng Gaofeng is holding."
"If Dongcheng Trading Company is related to the Shadow Organization or the Southern Tribe, Freeman Bolton cannot escape the connection!"
"Haha, so...Brother Lu Yang, you said earlier that you didn't find out anything wrong with Geng Gaofeng through tracking. You were trying to get away with me..." Mo Cai curled his lips and said with a smile.
"Haha, this is called suppressing first and then rising!" Lu Yang shouted into the microphone.
I'm proud of you... I felt a burst of curse in my heart.
It’s almost time to confirm that this so-called Speaker of East City, Freeman Bolton, should be the agent of the Shadow Organization!
Dongcheng City Trading Company is a company supported by the film organization in Dongcheng City. In other words, Dongcheng City Trading Company is equivalent to the gold diggers of the film organization - equivalent to Ainiang's Xinglong Villa Nightclub in Hot Spring City.
Yes, if you are in Dongcheng City, it seems that the focus of local film organizations is to make money... Whether it is City Speaker Freeman Bolton who wants to overpower the world's biggest boss, buying a stake in "Qidian", or Geng Gaofeng's faction People harass Black Mirror's Roland Club because of their work as agents of the film organization...
After giving Mo Zhi a short period of time to think, Captain Lu sighed again:
"Damn it, I knew there was something wrong with Dongcheng Trading Company. The business is so big. There must be collusion between federal government and businessmen behind it... As expected, behind every successful company there is the shadow of power."
"This is reality." Mu Zhi didn't care.
What I have seen is much more exaggerated than this...
Lu Yang paused: "The question now is, who is Ying's agent?"
"Is it Freeman Bolton or Geng Gaofeng?"
"Also, what are we going to do next?"
Mo Zhi immediately smiled: "Brother Lu Yang, the results we got are conjectures and there is no direct evidence."
"Direct evidence?" Lu Yang nodded thoughtfully.
Mo Cai calmed down and continued:
"That's right, direct evidence to prove who the agent of the Shadow Organization is, and the follow-up..."
"Of course we will continue to investigate, because... the agent of the Shadow Organization is not the point, the point is... which half-spirit is lurking behind the agent, Shadow... is It is the ultimate goal to solve it completely.”
"Only by determining who the agent of the Shadow Organization is, can we further investigate where the half-spirit behind the agent is... At that time, you can apply for assistance from the headquarters."
"Now, if the information in your hand is reported to the headquarters, it will only be that Freeman Bolton is the man behind the trading company, and he is related to the Shadow Organization. It cannot lock the agent."
This is exactly what Mozhi is worried about... Although he has been able to confirm the identity of Freeman Bolton's agent, there is no direct evidence that can be reported to the headquarters.
Presumably, after all, there is still a possibility that something is wrong. If it were to backfire, wouldn't it affect the whole body?
Lu Yang also understood the meaning of Mu Zhi's words:
"You are right. The case regarding the Shadow Organization is not ordinary. There must not be any mistakes."
"It's just...it's difficult now. Is there any better way to confirm the identity of Freeman Bolton?"
"Following and secretly investigating may not work for this guy... let alone the mayor, even Geng Gaofeng will not reveal any flaws."
"Brother, do you have any good ideas..."
Mozhi lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds: "There is a way."
"Oh?" Lu Yang asked.
Unpredictable smiled: "You might as well go kill some grass and scare the snake out."
"How surprised?" Lu Yang asked.
Mo Cai looked at the ceiling and held the microphone in his hand:
"Don't forget, don't you still have Geng Gaofeng's informant, and you still use her to send messages..."
"I seem to understand." Lu Yang nodded thoughtfully.
.........
Dongcheng City.
A group of one man and five women hired two carriages and drove out of the city.
Li Yan sat in the carriage, feeling the gradually warming sunshine, looking indifferently at the ridge in the distance.
"Master, where is our next stop?"
asked the governess O'Connor Willett.
Li Yan thought for a while and said lightly:
"Kyushu City."
"Obey!" O'Connor Violet did not dare to disobey.
Li Yan slowly breathed a sigh of relief... He had already made contact with his fellow villagers in Dongcheng City. Of course, he could not return to the "cage"-like island immediately, otherwise his purpose would appear too clear. .
Since you are on a trip, let’s visit multiple places.
Having made up his mind, Li Yan turned his attention to the tutor and saw her sitting on the side of the carriage, holding "Brother, Spare Your Life" in her hand...
This semi-spiritual strong man seemed to be in a trance, always wanting to laugh, but because he was the god beside him, he could only hold back and not make a sound... However, his shoulders shook and he laughed. I can't hold it any longer.
Li Yan shook his head slightly, smiling bitterly in his heart.
