At one o'clock in the morning, the noisy metropolis in the daytime fell into a quiet slumber. The lush banyan tree behind the old apartment swayed gently with the wind under the moonlight, and two sneaky black shadows, hidden in the dappled shadows of the tree at the moment, blended in with the heavy black night.
Qiao Wen pulled the stupid Chen Canaan and barked, "There are people guarding the apartment, their hands should be unusual, so be careful, it doesn't matter whether or not you can find something useful, if something is wrong, flee immediately."
Chen Canaan was wearing a close-fitting sportswear and nodded his head, "Don't worry, I'll act as I see fit, I wouldn't dare to say anything else, I'm sure I'll be number one in running away."
Jovian glanced at the dark and grimy four-story apartment in front of him, still a little worried, "Be safe."
"Knew it." Chen Canaan nodded without much concern and silently drilled into the night.
Jovian looked around and retreated into the grass and trees behind him.
As a child practicing martial arts bear child, Chen Canaan from the age of five or six years old began to climb the wall, the city walled seven or eight floors of the tenement building, he climbed at least dozens of buildings, and early practiced a beamer's instincts. Now moved out almost two years, because the apartment floor is too high, after Qiao Wen three orders forbid him to climb the window, he practiced a lot less opportunity, but more than ten years of child strength, that is not casually will be returned.
Although he was a tall man, he was athletic and light, climbing on the wall like a giant reptile, but in two minutes, he climbed up to the fourth floor without a sound, then took out his knife and easily pried open the window, and drilled in with a flick of the wrist.
It's a waste not to be a bandit with this skill.
Through the moonlight outside the window, one could vaguely see that the apartment was very spacious, and the home dιor was very classical - of course, Chen Canaan had no interest in this, as there really wasn't any artistic aesthetics or taste.
He catapulted himself to his feet and carefully looked around the apartment, which consisted of three rooms in total, all of which were closed. According to the investigation information, there was a caretaker in the apartment, who should be sleeping in one of them, and the remaining two, that was the master bedroom and the study.
When the villa was first built, he and Qiaowen learned a little bit of architecture from Master Ouyang, and had some general understanding of house design, and quickly determined the location of the study, touched the door, pulled out a wire, and inserted it into the door lock.
The locks in the room were uncomplicated, and his little handiwork was sufficient. There was a thin click, like a stone thrown into a lake, breaking the night and quickly restoring the peace.
With a secret sigh of relief, he pushed open the door and tiptoed in.
This is a typical study room, there is a whole wall of bookshelves, bookshelves full of books, marking Zhou Chao Zheng is a very learned reader, but unfortunately read so many books still do all the bad things, visible reading is not much use. Chen Canaan immediately gave himself a grand excuse for not reading.
He walked over to the large mahogany desk in the middle of the room and pried the drawers open.
Inside put a lot of documents, he did not have the time to look carefully - of course looked at the estimate can not read, took out the small camera hanging around his neck, mouth with a torch, randomly scanning a glance, if you think it is suspicious, then click to shoot down.
Qiaowen explained that he could shoot as much as he could, so he brought a few rolls of film with him to be prepared.
Was shooting vigorously, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door. Chen Canaan's eyes widened, hurriedly extinguished the flashlight, closed the drawer, and burrowed under the table to hide.
At the same time, the study door resounded with the click of a key in the lock, the door was opened, and the guarding bodyguard walked in.
Knock, knock, knock.
It was the sound of shoes stepping on the floor and the sound of Chen Canaan's heartbeat. He silently drew his dagger, thinking that if he was discovered, he would preemptively take out the person.
The good thing is that the bodyguard, is directly to the window, reached out and pulled to make sure that it is tightly closed, and then turn off the lights and go out.
A few moments later, the sound of footsteps outside disappeared, and Chen Canaan, who was cowering under the table, said that he counted on your life, and then tried to come out. Only the head has not yet drilled out, first accidentally hit the table above.
He rubbed his head in pain, and suddenly realized something, his hand went upward to touch under the table bucket, and felt a subtle gap, and subconsciously pressed hard, but it was a small hollow sandwich.
He slid his hand in, felt a cold folder-like contraption, and slowly drew it out.
Even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen a pig run, a document was hidden in such a secret, obviously important, this crooked harvest, so he was overjoyed, and no longer love to waste film, holding the folder, open the window, and quickly slipped down the stairs.
"Little Joe-" he called down as he ran to the bushes.
Qiaowen emerged from inside, "Nan!"
Chen Canaan said, "I sent down a dark layer under Zhou Chaozheng's desk with a document that I brought out."
Jovian looked around and pulled him in, "Let's go first!"
The two sneaked away, crossed two roads, and rode on the motorcycle parked here and left. Because of this unexpected harvest, back to the villa, the two did not immediately sleep.
Qiao Wen will open the file bag, pull out a stack of documents inside. The more you look at the more frightened, something is not much, an arms procurement contract, a stock market insider trading contract, behind the same company involved, called the Huan Yu Trade, which is Zhou Chao is under the banner of an inconspicuous company.
These things do not prove that Zhou Chaozheng is the Fifth Master, and I am afraid that they are only the tip of the iceberg of the areas that the Fifth Master is involved in, but they are enough to convict Zhou Chaozheng.
After Qiao Wen finished reading these things, it was already dawn, he rubbed his tired brow and smiled at Chen Canaan who had been accompanying him, "Brother Nan, you've made a great achievement this time, call Zhou Renjun to come over."
Chen Canaan hemmed and hawed, "It's just luck, it seems like God is helping us."
Qiao Wen also felt that it was too smooth, so smooth that it was a bit unbelievable. However, he also did not feel that this thing, could bring down Zhou Chaozheng, he originally had money and power, plus the identity of the fifth master, the energy behind it could be imagined. I don't know how many crimes he can be convicted of with just this thing.
However, as long as he can follow the trail to prove that he is the fifth master, this news broke out, will certainly cause shock, with the Independent Commission Against Corruption, the senior management will certainly not dare to easily protect him, and at that time, we will see how capable the lawyer he hired can be.
Zhou Renjun has been investigating the mysterious Fifth Master, and when he hears they have a lead, he immediately winds up here.
"Ah Nan Ah Wen, what have you guys found out?" As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Sir spoke urgently.
Chen Canaan pulled him into the house, "This matter is quite complicated, sit down and talk slowly."
Qiao Wen poured Zhou Renjun a cup of tea to moisten his throat and said, "By the way Zhou Sir, how is your relationship with Uncle Nine?"
"Zhou Chaozheng?"
Jovian nodded.
Zhou Renjun said, "Our Zhou family branches, my father's generation has a total of nine sons and ten daughters, he is my youngest cousin uncle, his family business, my family is a book, there is not much to come and go, I also met him once at a family gathering, although it is a relative, but in fact there is no friendship."
Jovian dropped his heart at the sound of his voice.
Zhou Renjun's brows furrowed as he asked curiously, "Why are you asking about Ninth Uncle? Does he have anything to do with the Fifth Master?"
Qiao Wen laughed, "You also know that because of this movie of ours, it has caused the name of the Fifth Master to be spread all over Hong Kong. I didn't expect that Master Five really approached us, he thought we were threatening him by making this movie. We were afraid of danger, so we had to go along with the information he gave us and investigate first."
"You guys investigated?"
Qiao Wen shook his head, "We initially suspect that Zhou Chaozheng is the Fifth Master, but of course it's just a guess, there's no solid evidence yet." Saying that, he handed Zhou Chaozheng's copy of the document to him, "But here's something that involves arms procurement and insider trading, the company behind it is called Huan Yu Trading, as far as I know, this company happens to be affiliated with Zhou Chaozheng, you can start checking from this company."
Zhou Renjun wrinkled his brow and carefully looked at the document in his hand, only to feel a rush of blood boiling up. With his intuition from several years as a police officer, behind this document was his long-awaited secret.
The purging of the Port City tumor is just around the corner, and a promotion and pay raise are just around the corner.
He hugged the precious document and left rejoicing.
Jovian yawned, "Sleepy, go to bed."
Although Chen Canaan hadn't slept all night, he was still in high spirits, pulling on his arm and saying, "Xiao Qiao, do you think I should be rewarded for the great work I've done this time?"
Jovian looked over at him with a black eye and a bemused look on his face.
Chen Canaan immediately stretched his arms out in a lustful manner, "Ouch, I'm sleepy too, go to bed go to bed."
Jovian shook his head in amusement.
This is a big case, but also need the assistance of the Commercial Crime Investigation Division, Zhou Renjun naturally do not dare to act privately, as soon as he went back to take out this evidence to apply for an investigation order with his superiors. He is now a police star, often on newspapers and television, he has to be righteous to investigate his cousin uncle, the supervisor naturally did not not approve the reason.
It is just that the Independent Commission Against Corruption has only been established for less than a year, and the police force is far from being cleaned up. Before he could act, Zhou Chaozheng had already received the news.
Originally, Zhou Chaozheng did not pay much attention to this matter, because I do not think the police can find out what, but upholding caution, went back to the apartment, surprised to find that the documents in the dark layer under the table has disappeared, only to realize that something big has happened.
He first called the bodyguard, the other side is a question, obviously do not know the home was burglarized. He did not bother to say more, waved his hand to drive people out, thought about it, dialed a phone.
"Several secret contracts of Huan Yu, were stolen, it is estimated that it is in the hands of the police, they check Huan Yu based on this, they will find out quite a lot of things, I don't have the time to maneuver with the police, I will temporarily go to Canada to avoid the wind, you guys deal with the police side."
Getting the exact response from the other side, Zhou Chaozheng hung up the phone with a depressed look, only to feel annoyed, safe and sound for many years of the old apartment, even people do not know the ghosts and ghosts of someone to break in and steal the important documents in the dark layer of his desk.
He knew that his good nephew, the police, had been investigating the Fifth Master, but had never been able to get anywhere, and it didn't make sense that he would find his way to him, and thus the documents couldn't have been stolen by the police.
And who would know that this is their secret base?
Two faces, Chen Canaan and Qiao Wen, suddenly popped into his head.
Could it be them?
It seemed that he had underestimated the two men's abilities. After thinking about it, he dialed Su Zhizhi's number again.
"Chi-Chi."
"Uncle Nine, looking for me?"
"Go to the house in Saigon at night."
"Okay, Uncle Nine."
Zhou Chaozheng countless lovers, Su Zhizhi is to stay around the longest one, to stay until now, has not been to the color of the lover so simple, all because she is the most understanding, but also the most obedient.
It had been some days since she'd been wooed, and she didn't think that Zhou Chaozheng was doing it because he was going to honor her tonight, but she still dressed up carefully in the mirror for a long time.
There was always a last time to make a play - and she guessed that tonight would be the last time.
"Uncle Nine!" She walked through the door and called tenderly towards the handsome and elegant middle-aged man on the sofa.
"Coming?" Zhou Chaozheng put down the wine glass in his hand and looked up at her faintly.
Su Zhizhi sat down next to him, "What does Ninth Uncle want to see me about?"
Zhou Chaozheng said, "Did you find something out by letting you contact Ah Wen and Ah Nan?"
Su Zhizhi shook her head, "As I see it there is nothing wrong with the two of them."
Zhou Chaozheng's complexion was cold, and he suddenly raised his hand and slapped her in the face with such force that he slapped her entire head askew.
"No problem? They broke into my house and stole from me? Still no problem? Gigi, I've promoted you to this position, and you can't even handle this, two men, and you can't seduce any of them?"
Su Zhizhi covered her cheeks and looked at him miserably, "Ninth Uncle, Ah Wen and Ah Nan are not ordinary men, they don't seem to like women."
Zhou Chaozheng snorted coldly, stood up and kicked her, "Useless thing, I'm going to Canada for a while, you'd better take care of these two people for me, otherwise when I come back, I'll take back all that you have now."
Su Zhizhi said periodically, "I know, Ninth Uncle."
She stood up, ready to undress the man, but was pushed away, "You're not needed here, get back!"
Su Zhizhi nodded her head repeatedly and covered her face as she fled.
Only to return to his car, the original look of fear was swept away, leaving only a face of indifference.
She rubbed the left side of her sore face with the back of her hand, turned her head to look coldly at the still lit garden house, and instructed the driver in a faint voice, "Drive."
"Okay, Ms. Sue."
Returning to the sea and sky, Su Zhizhi stepped out of the car with an air of calmness and slipped a tiny book in her hand into the mailbox at the door of the villa next door.
The next morning, Chen Canaan got up and went out to fetch a newspaper for Qiao Wen, saw a small book inside, curiously took it out, and found that there was a dark imprint left on it, he froze, opened it and looked at it, and suddenly realized what it was like, and rushed inside.
"Little Joe, look, is this Lu Handong's ledger? Someone left it in our newspaper box."
Jovian took it and flipped through it, and it was true.
But how did it end up in their newspaper box?
Could it be that he had thought wrongly earlier, and that person was not trying to avenge Lu Han Dong? Rather, he wanted to use their hands to find out about Zhou Chiu-Cheng?
He was thinking of asking Chen Canaan to give it to Zhou Renjun when the phone next to him rang.
He picks it up and listens, and as the saying goes, speak of the devil, it's none other than Zhou Renjun calling.
"Man, something happened to Zhou Chaozheng."
"Hmm?"
Zhou Renjun said, "He probably heard the wind that we were investigating him and flew to Canada in the middle of the night in a chartered plane that crashed into the sea."
"What?" Jovian thought he'd heard wrong.
Chen Canaan, who heard the call next to him, also opened his mouth wide in shock.
Zhou Renjun on the other end sighed despondently, "Things are too sudden, I can't believe it a little bit, I had thought it was a hard bone to gnaw on, I didn't expect this ninth uncle of mine to end up like this. Our side is still investigating, if it is proved that he is the fifth master, when the time comes, it will be directly out of the statement, it is also considered to give the public an explanation."
Qiao Wen reacted after a long time and said, "I don't know who put Lu Handong's account book in our mailbox this morning, and was about to hand it over to you, so you might be able to use it for your investigation."
"OK."
