Inheritance of Two Trillion
Chapter 1227 - 1192: You, are too cooperative!

Chapter 1227: Chapter 1192: You, are too cooperative!

Bai Xiaosheng led the investigation on the third day.

The progress on all fronts was swift, with new "surprises" emerging almost every day.

Not only on Bai Xiaosheng’s side, but Zheng Honghu, Li Haofeng, as well as another Senior Affairs Officer, also continually made gratifying progress.

One problematic individual after another was unearthed, and one achievement after another awaited reaping!

Nearly every Affairs Officer and assistant who participated in the investigation was highly excited, dedicating themselves wholeheartedly to their work.

Nanyu City, Shenhe Group, ten o’clock in the morning.

Bai Xiaosheng walked down the corridor, with Lin Weiwei following beside him, reporting the achievements they had made in the short span of two hours that morning.

"Just now, Han Hefei has confessed to two more issues."

"The first one involves Shenhe colluding with one of its subsidiary trading companies to falsify accounts. That subsidiary is in the area that Great Affairs Officer Zheng Honghu is responsible for. I have already sent the information over to them. The feedback has come; the person in charge there refuses to recognize the issue. However, the accounts are currently being audited. I believe there will be results soon!"

"The second involves a ship company under the Group that received a large sum of bridge capital from Shenhe this March, purportedly for private investment. The ship company is located in Haofeng Great Affairs Officer Li’s investigative jurisdiction. At present, it is also under investigation."

Lin Weiwei was also extremely excited.

In less than three days, the achievements they’d made were substantial. Although nearly ninety percent required investigation and verification and were not yet finalized, the future awaiting them would be a startling surprise.

It was believed that after this battle, Shen Peishen would be thoroughly destroyed, and Bai Xiaosheng would ascend to the top rank of Senior Affairs Officer due to his merits!

Correspondingly, both she and Lei Ying would rise with the tide!

And these participating Senior Affairs Officers, Affairs Officers, and assistants would also receive ample rewards!

In short, this ardor will surely lead to universal jubilation!

Bai Xiaosheng listened to these good news and pondered slightly.

If it had been the day before yesterday, he couldn’t have stopped the excitement.

If it had been yesterday, he would have been very content.

But today, hearing such good news in succession, with so many positive updates, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat numb.

"Xiaosheng, what are you thinking about?" Seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s silence, Lin Weiwei asked curiously and then smiled, "Today isn’t as shocking as the past two days, but the day has just begun. I believe that as we go on, we will get more good news from Han Hefei’s mouth!"

Lin Weiwei’s words made Bai Xiaosheng pause midstep, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Weiwei, during these days, has it always been Lei Ying who’s been questioning Han Hefei?" Bai Xiaosheng asked.

Although he was stationed in Nanyu, he could only spend half a day monitoring the questioning of Han Hefei before he was caught up managing other people’s inquiries.

After all, many enterprises were embroiled in the issue in Nanyu and the surrounding provinces and cities. With about twenty related companies and seventy to eighty Affairs Officers and assistants coming to help, with so many people and so much to deal with, he couldn’t possibly focus on Han Hefei alone!

"Yes, at the beginning it was, but because we were afraid Han Hefei might not be cooperative. However, Han Hefei has been very cooperative. Later on, it was other Affairs Officers who took over. Lei Ying went to help investigate other enterprises in Nanyu City. What’s wrong, Xiaosheng?" Lin Weiwei queried.

Bai Xiaosheng furrowed his brows, remaining silent.

"So, from the beginning up to now, Han Hefei has been very cooperative!"

"Yes," Lin Weiwei said, "With us here, what could Han Hefei do if he were uncooperative?"

It didn’t matter whether it was Bai Xiaosheng, Lei Ying, or she herself; they were all experts in investigation. If Han Hefei dared to hide anything, they could definitely tell. If push came to shove and they had to resort to measures, Han Hefei would not last long.

From this perspective, Han Hefei seemed to be quite sensible.

"I want to go see Han Hefei!" Bai Xiaosheng suddenly said.

Upon hearing that Bai Xiaosheng wanted to see Han Hefei, Lin Weiwei had no objections and immediately followed him straight to the assistant’s office.

At the moment, the assistant’s office was emptied out, temporarily serving as an interrogation room.

Since this was a corporate investigation and not a legal authority, Han Hefei’s freedom could not be restricted. However, he was required to come to the company every day. Upon arrival, he had to go directly to the assistant’s office to confess his issues; otherwise, the Group would file a lawsuit.

Han Hefei kept to the agreement, arriving punctually and more on time than for work.

When Bai Xiaosheng entered the room, Han Hefei was sitting behind the desk, holding a teacup and drinking tea. One Affairs Officer and two assistants in charge of questioning were organizing documents; they appeared to have just finished a round of questioning.

"Haofeng Great Affairs Officer!"

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng come in, the Affairs Officer and assistants promptly stood up and greeted him with smiles.

"Hard work," Bai Xiaosheng nodded, smiling back at the two, "I’m going to chat with Han Hefei for a bit."

"Okay."

The Affairs Officer and the two assistant officers tactfully picked up their things and stood up to leave, vacating the space.

Bai Xiaosheng walked straight over and sat down opposite Han Hefei.

Han Hefei held his teacup, still calm and composed, and only glanced at Bai Xiaosheng upon his entrance.

"Mr. Han seems to be in good spirits. Are you used to it here?" asked Bai Xiaosheng.

"What’s there to not be used to? I’ve been working here for about fifteen or sixteen years," Han Hefei said with a light smile, lifting the teacup in his hand, "even this tea is from my office. How could I not be used to it?"

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and stared at him, asking, "I heard Mr. Han is very cooperative with our work!"

Bai Xiaosheng watched for any changes in Han Hefei’s expression.

"With Senior Affairs Officer Sheng personally visiting, how could I not cooperate? What else could I do? Resist, not comply?" Han Hefei shrugged with a laugh, "To confess and seek leniency, right? Group regulations, I’m still somewhat aware. If my cooperation can lead to headquarters considering a reduction in punishment, decreasing some charges, then why not be willing! To maximize cooperation is best for everyone!"

Han Hefei admitted frankly why he was so readily confessing; it seemed he had already guessed what Bai Xiaosheng was going to ask.

Bai Xiaosheng’s smile slightly receded as he fixated on Han Hefei’s eyes, just watching him.

Han Hefei met Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze, his eyes calm and unwavering.

Truly, Han Hefei was remarkable—as of now, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t penetrate his current emotional state.

Some people are naturally adept at controlling their emotions and composure!

Not to mention decades spent in the corporate world!

"What you’re doing now doesn’t match your character!"

Bai Xiaosheng made an abrupt, unsolicited comment to Han Hefei.

"Is Senior Affairs Officer Sheng implying that he wants me not to confess so readily because that would match your judgment of me?" Han Hefei asked with a laugh in response.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at him seriously, not in the mood for jokes.

"Up to now, you’ve shown no resistance, you’ve been very cooperative, but you’ve not fully disclosed everything you know."

"Every day, you surprise us, but each and every surprise, we can’t seem to quickly realize."

"The items in your safe, every piece leads to a clue we can follow, but none are serious enough to be a death warrant."

Bai Xiaosheng looked earnestly at Han Hefei.

"I’m starting to have doubts!"

What doubts Bai Xiaosheng held, he did not say; he merely continued staring at Han Hefei.

Han Hefei also stared back.

For a full two minutes, Bai Xiaosheng stood up and walked out.

There was no result.

From Han Hefei, Bai Xiaosheng felt he couldn’t get the answers he was looking for.

Lin Weiwei hurriedly followed Bai Xiaosheng out of the assistant’s office.

Han Hefei watched the door close, took another sip from his tea cup, and murmured in a voice only he could hear, "You’re very impressive!"

"But, so what." Han Hefei’s expressionless face finally revealed a hint of a smile.

A mocking smile.

Bai Xiaosheng paused by a window in the corridor, and Lin Weiwei approached, surprised, "Xiaosheng, what’s wrong?"

Bai Xiaosheng fell silent, then suddenly said, "I’m going to call Elder Xia!"

He moved to a corner, dialed the number, and waited patiently.

Once, no answer.

Twice, no answer.

Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes grew more serious, his grip on the phone tightening.

"Elder Xia!"
