Chapter 1105 Bluffing
Chapter 1105 Bluffing
As the secretary of Governor Murray MacLehose, it can be said that he knew all the leaders of the three departments and thirteen bureaus in Hong Kong Island, otherwise he would not be able to be this secretary.
There are also few people who don’t know the governor’s chief secretary.
This also resulted in no incidents of people being looked down upon and being stopped from entering the Finance Department.
The secretary easily entered the Finance Department and came to the door of Fan Weili's office.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Director Fan, I hope I didn't disturb your work?"
Fan Weili's office door was open. When he heard the knock, he immediately looked up and said with a smile, "Secretary Guan, what brings you here?"
Secretary Guan smiled helplessly, "Director Fan, you know what happened, don't you? The police actually arrested Huang Shitong. He knows so much about insider trading in so many companies, and even holds shares in so many people's companies. You know what this means, don't you?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Weili nodded solemnly, "Of course I understand this, but don't worry, Secretary Guan. The police informed me before they arrested me."
"No matter how many chips Huang Shitong holds in his hands, he can't shake the economic market of Hong Kong Island. You can rest assured about this!"
Secretary Guan looked at Fan Weili deeply. He didn't know where the other party got his confidence from, but from the look in his eyes, it was obvious that he was very confident.
"With what Director Fan said, I'm relieved. The General has personally inquired about Huang Shitong's arrest, so he sent me here to inquire about the situation. However...does this police force have any evidence to arrest Huang Shitong?"
Fan Weili spread his hands and said, "Secretary Guan, you're putting me in a difficult position. How can I possibly know if the police have any evidence? I'm the Finance Department, not the Department of Justice. No matter who the police arrest, they must ultimately go through the Department of Justice and the courts for a trial before they can be sentenced or punished!"
Secretary Guan smiled faintly. "The police acted so quickly, it seems they have some incredible evidence. But you're right. Regardless of whether the police have evidence or not, or how the investigation goes, the final verdict will come from the Department of Justice and the courts."
"Then I'll be leaving first. I still have to go to the police force to understand the situation. After all, this matter has a significant impact. The Governor asked me to understand the situation, so it's better for me to go and learn more."
Fan Weili nodded slightly: "Okay, then take care, I won't see you off."
After Secretary Guan left, the smile on Fan Weili's face immediately disappeared. From his point of view, he hoped that Huang Shi would be caught. After all, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to eradicate the Landlord Association, a parasite that had been sucking blood from Hong Kong Island.
Yes, at this time, the landlords' association has turned from the guardian of Hong Kong Island into a parasite.
But precisely because he understood the Landlords Association, he knew very well how great the potential power of this Landlords Association was. No one knew how many people in the three divisions and thirteen bureaus of Hong Kong Island had received money from the Landlords Association.
People from the Landlords Association once wanted to give money to Fan Weili, but he refused. After that, the Landlords Association never gave money again. However, during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, some fruits and small gifts would be delivered to his door.
Some of Fan Weili's relatives and friends also received these fruits and small gifts. Generally speaking, they were not worth much money, but the other party began to erode Fan Weili step by step through this method.
Fan Weili was also troubled by this matter. The gift given by the other party was not worth much, but it bribed his relatives and friends.
He had told his relatives and friends not to accept those gifts, but they felt that these things were not worth much, and the people who gave the gifts were very nice, which made them feel embarrassed to refuse.
And now that I have received the money, I don’t know where to return it if I want to.
To deal with someone like Fan Weili, the Landlords' Association members were able to break through and invade from around him. It is conceivable how many people in the Three Departments and Thirteen Bureaus had received gifts from the Landlords' Association.
Arresting Huang Shitong is only the first step. Convicting him is the most difficult step.
Taking a deep breath, Fan Weili took out his mobile phone and informed Watson and Huang Bingyao about the matter.
Finally, he said, "I don't know how deep the network behind the Landlord Association is. I can only say that there are probably people in the three departments and thirteen bureaus..."
After hanging up the phone, Watson looked at Huang Shitong sitting in the interrogation room through the one-way mirror.
Huang Shitong had regained his unruly demeanor. Facing Li Wenbin's personal interrogation, he only said one sentence at the beginning: "I won't say a word until my lawyer arrives."
Then this guy completely closed his mouth and eyes, sat on the interrogation chair and began to doze off.
Li Wenbin was also very troubled when he saw this scene. Facing someone of Huang Shitong's status, he did not dare to use force. However, looking at the other party's red and swollen cheeks, it was obvious that he had been beaten. He didn't know who was so brave.
He had no idea that the instigator of all this was He Wenzhan, the chief commander of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau, who was sitting next to him.
Watson saw this scene outside the one-way mirror and immediately pushed open the door and walked in.
When Huang Shitong heard the noise, he opened his eyes and looked over. He thought it was his lawyer who had arrived, but he didn't expect that it was Watson, the new deputy director of operations of the police force.
"Huang Shitong, please introduce yourself..."
Huang Shitong smiled faintly: "No need, Watson, Deputy Commissioner of Police Operations, who in Hong Kong doesn't know him now!"
Watson asked calmly, "Since you know my name, I won't waste any more time. I can tell you clearly that once you come in this time, don't even think about getting out."
"We have some evidence of your stock market manipulation and insider trading. Of course, this is only part of the evidence, and we are still collecting it."
"As long as you can confess honestly, I can promise you that I will help you get a lenient result."
Huang Shitong laughed when he heard this, and his laughter grew louder and louder. He Wenzhan frowned and was about to step forward to teach him a lesson, but Watson said calmly: "Huang Shitong, do you think I'm bluffing?"
"Someone has handed us evidence of your crimes from many years ago. It's an old notebook that records a lot of things you did. This alone is enough to incriminate you."
When Huang Shitong heard the word notebook, his expression changed completely, and he stared at Watson with a gloomy look.
