Chapter 886 – #97. Lanna (46)
The press was too loud.
[Mr. 000, who was under arrest for fear of escape, was released this morning.]
[000 charged with bribery and stock price manipulation, returning home even with additional evidence coming in.]
“Why is the media talking so loudly? Didn’t they say they would stop it from above?”
“Does this seem like a fight between the upper ranks?”
“It’s not too crazy when the article goes up and down.”
“Only the reporters were playing.”
In a situation where a quiet investigation was supposed to be conducted, people’s attention was focused on the media as they unnecessarily burst into stories.
This makes the investigation very difficult.
This is because there are various external pressures coming from the surroundings.
“Fuck.”
Just as expected.
The one who wants to dig up vs the one who wants to hide.
As the two forces collided, the investigators in the middle began to suffer.
However, as evidence from unknown sources steadily came in that the forces trying to dig out were stronger than the forces trying to hide, it was showing who would emerge victorious.
“The evidence is so clear, what can I do?”
“In addition, since the evidence was exposed to the press, it is impossible to siphon it back.”
Evidence that came to them was exploding through the media, as if the attacking side had an unusual connection with the media.
Because of this, even if I wanted to cover it from the top, I couldn’t cover it.
If it hadn’t exploded in the press, it could have been hidden, but at the same time as the evidence came, the press separately exploded the evidence, so it couldn’t be hidden.
Still, it was fortunate that they didn’t give out really important evidence to the press, as if they were trying to keep the line…
“If we don’t investigate properly, the evidence will be blown up in the press as if we’ve waited. I think the scales have tipped. This is not a situation where we can pretend otherwise. Let’s just push.”
“Yes, you do.”
By the time the investigators, who were contemplating which of the two forces to choose, had made a decision on which side to take.
Those who were suffering also gave up the river as if they could not do it anymore.
“What? Disappeared?”
The person who was investigating had completely evaporated.
Her crimes came to light and the fact that she ran away took the media attention as she was a woman under investigation.
[Mr. 000, who was under arrest for fear of escape, escaped as soon as he was released?]
[Disappearance or escape? The cops who are unaware.]
[Is it okay with incompetent cops?]
The important thing was the details of the slush fund that the woman might have carried out, the source of the slush fund, and the hidden top line that had not yet been revealed externally.
However, the direction of the media was flowing in the direction of cursing the incompetence of the police, as if the party who was being suffered played a trick.
“Did that woman really run away?”
“If it really ran away, we could catch it. But I don’t think it ran away.”
“As expected, kidnapping or disappearance rather than escape, right?”
“Yeah. Honestly, I think I’ve already committed suicide.”
“It’s highly likely.”
“Ah…Damn it, I’m going to fuck you upstairs again.”
After roughly grasping the situation, the investigators sighed heavily.
It was because it was clear what kind of hardships he would have to go through to find that woman.
“Isn’t it so absurd? They were sent out after arrest and investigation because they were in a mess, but it’s our fault that they ran away.”
“When did the superiors try to take responsibility? The subordinates have to take responsibility. Let’s find someone we can pass on.”
“Yes.”
There was one reason why the media particularly pointed out the mistakes of the police.
It is to draw attention to the incompetence of the police so that people do not focus on slush funds.
If it explodes, it’ll be a big deal.
There are still several politicians involved with the woman, but if the slush fund details come out in earnest…
It was clear that there would be unimaginable aftermath.
Moreover, I don’t know where the chirashi came from, but it was spreading knowingly that the owner of the slush fund connected to that woman was the former president.
“Rumor has it that if you keep digging at that woman, you will find the former president’s slush funds.”
“Fuck…It was a bomb.”
He could never be ignored just because he was the former president.
Even after he went down to the presidency, his limbs were still spread across the institutions of power.
“It’s a bomb. A bomb that explodes 100% of the time when touched.”
“The regime hasn’t even changed, so how can you touch this?”
Given the situation, the police had no choice but to be passive about investigating the case.
Whether the woman died or not was none of their business.
Wouldn’t it be a big deal if you get entangled and get swept away by a bomb?
But when the police are also aware of the rumors, there’s no way the media isn’t sniffing them.
Moreover, there was no way to see the side that was attacking them sighing.
Content that not everyone wished was blown up through the media.
[Political slush fund gate exploded!]
[Evidence of former presidential slush fund found!]
Former president’s slush fund.
It was the appearance of a big tycoon that was too embarrassing to be a business started by a woman who was only running a small business.
From then on, things started to get out of hand.
She looked up flight history to find the missing woman, started tracking her card history, but showed incompetence in not even finding the woman’s daughter.
“Where the hell did you take them and kill them?”
“For the work to be over, at least a corpse has to come out… But it’s difficult.”
If a body is found, the investigation can be ended.
However, since the body was not found, the police had no choice but to continue searching until it was found.
“What the hell are you doing with us?!”
The media makes a fuss, the person in question has disappeared, and the investigation has already surpassed the woman and caused a stir with the former president’s slush funds.
Because of the evidence that continues to come in, it is impossible not to investigate, and even so, it is unclear whether the subject of the investigation is dead or alive, so continuing to investigate is an ambiguous situation.
“She’s alive that woman!”
Did he even want to make fun of those investigators?
The latest recent photos of the woman have been posted on the Internet.
Since she was so hotly talked about in public opinion, there were no people who did not know her face, and a picture of her alive and walking around outside was posted on the Internet.
But…
“You seem to have suffered quite a bit?”
“I see. Did he run away?”
“That’s right. How do you really handle your work…”
“Maybe there’s something to be gained from her?”
“Yes, you’re a strong woman. She didn’t blow and ran away anyway.”
“But what if we secure that woman?”
“…Could it be a lottery that didn’t work? I think it will help us wherever we sell it.”
It was clear that he would benefit greatly from capturing that woman and giving it to either side.
Isn’t that woman worth that much?
However, the fact that there are more people who know about it than people who don’t know it made their hearts impatient.
“This woman, we secure it. And let’s pick a place that will give us more profit and do business properly. What do you think?”
“Great!”
All kinds of ugly people were flocking around a woman.
♧ ♧ ♧
When caught in a strange place.
She was fiercely determined.
That she would not give them what she was holding in her own hands, no matter what threats.
‘This is like my life.’
She was no fool, she thought, and would lose her life the moment she gave in to her blackmail and spoke her words.
So when she was threatened with the lives of her daughters, she never flinched.
She kept her mouth shut, she insisted that everything would explode when she died.
They didn’t know what she was holding in her hand, so even if they could cut her hand, it wouldn’t do any damage to her life.
‘Let’s wait… Someday you’ll get a chance. Someday!!!’
I endured like that.
It would be burdensome for them to keep her locked up for a long time.
Knowing that, she held it tight.
And her world didn’t forsake her.
By enduring her pain, she finally found her way to live!!
“Boss, it’s me. Do you remember?”
“Ah?”
A woman approached secretly and whispered meaningful words in her ear.
She had a hard time recognizing her face because her strength was drained from not eating properly.
Besides, she wouldn’t have been able to recognize her face in the first place, even if she was in a sane state where she could.
Isn’t there a reason to remember the faces of people who are pampered while working?
“Who, who…?”
“I sneaked in to steal the boss. We don’t have much time left. We have to get up and get out!”
“Me, out? Can I go out?”
“Sure. Let’s go. Come on!”
She was led outside by the hand of an unknown person.
Curiously, she was able to escape the most disgusting place without meeting anyone as she followed her lead.
“You have to run more! And I can only guide you this far.”
“Why, why? Look at me, where are you going from here?”
“It would be more dangerous for me to leave. I can’t help but avoid suspicion as much as possible.
“Under…”
There were many things I wanted to say and ask, but it didn’t seem like that was the important thing right now.
“Thank you.”
I couldn’t understand why the hell he was helping me.
“No, boss. We will protect the company as much as we can. We will wait for you to return.”
She burst into tears at the words of her staff.
She herself tried to throw everyone away without hesitation, but didn’t the staff come all the way here risking to save themselves?
She didn’t notice that there was something strange about the situation.
A strange employee pops out of nowhere.
How could the employee know where he was and even come to rescue him?
Even the slightest thought of this made her realize that she was full of strange feelings.
However, her tormented and tormented mind for several days did not think of anything she should have doubted.
Having received cash and even a cannon phone, she left in a hurry.
The employee stared at the woman’s disappearing back.
There was a creepy coolness in her gaze, but unfortunately no one noticed the look in her eyes.
