163: A friend
He just said a lot of irrelevant things.
The truly useful information was not mentioned at all.
Gao Zhiman was too lazy to beat around the bush with him.
She directly slammed the transfer records of his bank card onto the table.
"What's going on with all this money?"
Who knew that Lu Duoxin only glanced at it.
Then he started to laugh.
"What, officer, is it illegal to have money?"
"It's not illegal, but you have to explain the source."
Gao Zhiman quickly pointed at several suspicious entries.
"According to the investigation, these sums of money were all transferred from the black market, and these other sums have been defined as illicit income. Are you still denying that you participated in illegal projects and maliciously laundered money?"
Gao Zhiman was indeed the Director's daughter.
She certainly had a knack for interrogations.
Her words left Lu Duoxin completely bewildered.
"I..."
He wanted to defend himself.
But Lu Duoxin himself was an uncultured person.
He had no idea where to even begin his defense.
He stammered and stuttered, unable to utter a single useful word for a long time.
Gao Zhiman was too lazy to waste time with him there.
She simply called other colleagues to conduct the interrogation.
As for herself, she went to the next room.
Closing the door, Gao Zhiman's voice immediately softened.
"Husband, is this person you sent really capable of doing such things? I see he has very shallow basic legal knowledge."
Gao Zhiman moved closer to Chen Tianming.
Chen Tianming didn't speak.
Instead, he stared at Lu Duoxin in the monitor.
Lu Duoxin committed the act.
But someone else gave him the idea.
What he needed to do now.
Was to catch the mastermind behind it all.
Chen Tianming's eyes narrowed slightly.
He was genuinely curious now, who had such guts.
To dare to instigate Lu Duoxin to make trouble for him.
Just as Chen Tianming was calculating, a knock came from outside the door.
Gao Zhiman, who had already been sitting on Chen Tianming's lap, immediately stood up.
Her beautiful eyes turned a few shades colder.
Having their private time interrupted made her very displeased.
"What is it?"
The door opened, and another police officer came before Gao Zhiman.
"Someone's here, saying they want to bail out Lu Duoxin."
"Bail someone out?"
Gao Zhiman was surprised.
If people with backgrounds were arrested, it was indeed possible for them to be released through their connections.
But Lu Duoxin, a mere upstart?
What kind of special background could he have?
Just as Gao Zhiman was curious.
Chen Tianming behind her suddenly spoke, "Bring the person over to see first. As for releasing him..."
A sharp glint flashed in Chen Tianming's eyes, "We'll talk about that later."
Under the police officer's arrangement, the person was quickly brought in.
Looking up, Chen Tianming actually saw a brilliant golden light on the other person.
This person was a Female Lead?
Chen Tianming was delighted.
This was great; not only could he thoroughly deal with the child of destiny and harvest a wave of Devil's Value, but he could also subdue a new Female Lead along the way.
This feeling was quite good.
At the same time, the other party's information was transmitted to Chen Tianming via the system.
"[Name: Gu Yuan (Female Lead)]"
"[Age: 23 years old]"
"[Identity: Gu family's Young Miss of the Four Great Families]"
"[Appearance: 98]"
This person's appearance was indeed not low.
Relying solely on her superior conditions, she was almost at full marks.
Chen Tianming's lips curved into a faint smile.
However, upon seeing Chen Tianming, the other party's expression was somewhat complex.
"Chen Shao, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Gu Yuan was not polite. She walked a few steps into the room and leaned her hands on the table. "What are you doing here, Chen Shao?"
"Just happened to be here to meet a friend."
As he spoke, he swept his gaze towards Gao Zhiman by the door.
Seeing the ambiguous, almost intertwined gazes between the two, Gu Yuan could already guess their relationship.
However, she was too lazy to meddle in other people's affairs.
"I didn't expect Chen Shao's network to be so wide. My purpose is similar to yours; I'm also here to find a friend."
Who exactly, this woman was unwilling to say clearly.
She was clearly afraid that if Chen Tianming knew, it would cause greater trouble.
"Friend? Who is this friend? Do I know them?"
As he spoke, Chen Tianming straightened his posture. "To think they could make you, the esteemed Young Miss of the Gu family, personally make a trip?"
When Chen Tianming asked this, Gu Yuan was clearly a bit uneasy.
"I met them by chance; they're just an ordinary person."
She wasn't that stupid; how could she tell Chen Tianming the truth?
In terms of capital, Lu Duoxin definitely didn't measure up to her.
It wasn't until the last time she went shopping that she saw this guy, dressed shabbily, but using money to buy a watch worth a million.
At first, she was just curious about where this person's money came from, but she unexpectedly discovered such a peculiar treasure.
Although Lu Duoxin didn't tell Gu Yuan the source of these funds.
According to Lu Duoxin's own statement, it was certainly inexhaustible.
Although her own family had some capabilities, it was far from enough compared to the Chen family, and she was unwilling to always be subordinate to others.
That's why she arranged for Lu Duoxin to acquire shares, and eventually acquire the Chen family's.
Her goal was simple: to use Lu Duoxin for her own purposes, then acquire the Chen family, and make the Gu family the strongest presence in the entire Magic City.
Who knew that Lu Duoxin, this idiot, was so foolish.
It had only been a few days, and he actually went to trouble Chen Tianming.
It's hard to say if this incident has a direct connection to Chen Tianming.
"Ordinary person?"
Chen Tianming sneered, "Can ordinary people be friends with Miss Gu now?"
As he spoke, Chen Tianming also stood up, gently leaning his hands on the table.
The distance between the two of them was so close.
Even Gu Yuan's exhaled breath could be clearly felt by Chen Tianming at this moment.
She came here on short notice today.
She probably just went shopping with a friend, her makeup was exceptionally exquisite, and her hair had just been styled.
At this moment, she was wearing a strapless short dress.
As long as Chen Tianming's gaze lowered slightly.
He could take in the exquisite scenery.
He had met the Gu family head, Gu Haicheng, a few times before.
He was just a middle-aged man with a severely out-of-shape body and a bit of a receding hairline.
He didn't expect that guy to have such a beautiful daughter.
Perhaps she felt the wickedness in Chen Tianming's eyes.
A blush appeared on Gu Yuan's fair face.
"Miss Gu, the investigation inside is complete. You can take your friend and leave now."
Upon receiving the police officer's reply, Gu Yuan immediately agreed.
"Chen Shao, my business is done."
The woman immediately straightened up.
Perhaps being stared at by Chen Tianming made her a bit uncomfortable.
Gu Yuan even deliberately put on her coat, covering the endless scenery of her chest.
"I have to go now, I won't disturb you two."
After speaking, she didn't forget to glance back and forth between Gao Zhiman and Chen Tianming.
