Chapter 312: [312] I must get the lion’s share_1
“I am with the Zhonghai Economic Crime Division, tasked with investigating the Qin Lishen money laundering group. I hope you’ll cooperate honestly.”
Tang Feng once again bluffed, leaving Fan Ziqiu utterly shocked.
“Economic Crime Division?” His eyes flickered as he quickly concocted a countermeasure in his mind.
Tang Feng saw through his thoughts instantly, “I advise you not to waste your effort, this is giving you a chance to make amends for your past actions.”
“Qi Tiande has already confessed, if you don’t rein yourself in now, nobody can save you.”
“Qi Tiande?” Fan Ziqiu was startled again.
For Tang Feng to know this name, it was clear that he had a deep understanding of their money laundering group, and probably couldn’t be fooled.
“Alright, whatever you want to ask, I’ll confess truthfully.” In the end, he gave up on his wishful thinking.
His own infractions were not that severe, and he saw no need to go down with Qin Lishen.
Tang Feng took out his phone and began to record him, “Speak, tell me everything you know.”
“I have been serving as the CFO at Yueya Entertainment Company. Starting from last June, Qin Lishen suddenly gave me a task…”
Fan Ziqiu confessed everything he knew in detail.
Including Qin Lishen’s money laundering activities, and many unknown secrets, the information was massive.
Based solely on what he said, it was enough for Qin Lishen to die a hundred times over.
After Tang Feng got the full confession, he immediately sent the video to Lu Keke.
A few minutes later, Lu Keke sent a message back, “I’m on my way.”
“Let’s go, let’s wait outside, someone will be here to pick you up soon,” Tang Feng said with a smile to Fan Ziqiu.
Fan Ziqiu sighed deeply and walked out dejectedly.
When the two reached outside the billiard hall, they saw Zhang Fuchun and others smoking.
As soon as they came out, the group immediately surrounded them.
“Mr. Tang? Have you finished talking? So, who do I give this money to?” Zhang Fuchun asked eagerly, the ten million in his account was burning a hole in his pocket, and he was anxious to get rid of it.
Tang Feng turned his head to Fan Ziqiu, “What do you think, Mr. Fan?”
Fan Ziqiu gave a wry smile, “I have no need for the money now, of course, it should be transferred to Mr. Tang.”
The others didn’t understand the implication of his words and thought the two had already come to an arrangement.
Zhang Fuchun immediately transferred the ten million to Tang Feng and then hesitated, “Mr. Tang, so what now…”
Clearly, he wanted to say, I’ve completed my task, can my wife and daughter be freed now?
“No rush, let’s wait for someone,” Tang Feng said to him with a faint smile.
Although Zhang Fuchun was anxious, he did not dare to say anything more.
The group stood outside, making idle chatter.
About fifteen minutes later, a black Jeep roared up, it was Lu Keke’s car.
“Screech…”
The harsh sound of the Jeep’s brakes was particularly piercing in the silent night.
Lu Keke leapt out of the car, and Zhang Fuchun’s wife and daughter followed her down.
Zhang Fuchun was overjoyed and rushed to embrace them, “Are you alright?”
He had never felt the importance of family as deeply as he did at that moment.
His wife immediately told him the truth of what had happened.
Zhang Fuchun was filled with shame.
He had always been addicted to gambling, neglecting his family’s feelings.
Going through this, he also gradually realized that nothing was more important than family.
His former resentment towards Tang Feng immediately vanished, and he even felt some gratitude.
If it wasn’t for Mr. Tang, he might still be muddling along in confusion.
Tang Feng didn’t bother with him but handed Fan Ziqiu over to Lu Keke.
“Not bad, I didn’t expect you to be somewhat useful.”
Although Lu Keke’s gaze still held a trace of disdain, thankfully, it was now mixed with a hint of appreciation, which was quite valuable.
Tang Feng glared at her unhappily, “Do you know how to talk? What do you mean ‘somewhat useful’?”
“I helped you crack the Qin Lishen case from start to finish. If there’s a bonus, I must take the lion’s share.”
Lu Keke rolled her eyes, “Doing a glorious deed to eliminate harm to the people, how can you only think about the bonus?”
Tang Feng chuckled, “Keep the glory for yourself, I am a practical person; I don’t crave hollow fame.”
Lu Keke didn’t want to argue with him anymore because this guy was too good with words—so good he could talk a dead person back to life, and she was no match for him.
She immediately cuffed Fan Ziqiu and pushed him into the back seat of the Jeep.
Everyone present was stunned.
They didn’t know what crime Fan Ziqiu had committed, or if they would be implicated.
“With the evidence we currently have, are we able to take down Qin Lishen?” Tang Feng leaned on the Jeep’s window, looking at Lu Keke in the driver’s seat.
“Don’t worry, he’s as good as dead this time,” Lu Keke replied, starting the car.
“Safe travels,” Tang Feng took a step back and gave her a sloppy military salute.
Lu Keke’s mouth curled into a smile, which was quickly hidden by the darkness, “Even though you did this for personal revenge, consider it one favor owed to you by our safety team. Goodbye.”
As soon as her words ended, the Jeep sped away into the night.
Tang Feng watched until she disappeared before turning to the anxious gamblers, “What are you still doing standing around here? Do you want to go with them too?”
His words made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
“Mr. Tang… you must discern the truth, we really didn’t know about Fan Ziqiu’s affair, it has nothing to do with us.”
“Right, right, we just play cards together from time to time, besides that, we know nothing about his business.”
“We are all honest businessmen, we would never do anything illegal.”
“I always knew that Fan Ziqiu was no good, but I never thought he’d dare to break the law…”
Anxious not to be implicated, everyone began distancing themselves from Fan Ziqiu.
Tang Feng looked at these people with disdain. In his view, they were even worse than Fan Ziqiu; at least he had never bad-mouthed anyone.
Not wanting to waste words on them, he turned and got into his Ferrari and drove off.
