Chapter 1726: The Battle of Tianjin! (84)

"In your opinion, Mr. James is not a good-tempered person, right?" Qiu An continued to ask.

"One of the four managers of Renji Foreign Company, he has the worst temper!" Gu Maisonette thought for a while and replied.

"Have you ever thought about taking revenge on him?"

"No, no, actually, we compradors are glorious on the surface, but in fact they are both angry. If it weren't for the sake of having a full meal, who would have been willing to serve these foreigners?" Gu comprador said angrily.

"Western people are not easy to serve, right?"

"To be honest, I've already planned to do it at Renji Foreign Company. If James hadn't owed me a payment for the goods, I would have fired him!"

"Oh, James owe you money?"

"Yes, he not only owes me money, but also owes many people money. With his death, he probably won't be able to pay back the money!" Gu Magazine said with his head down.

"Mr. Gu, do you know that in addition to the money James owes you, he also owes those people money?" Qiu An's eyes lit up and asked questions and answers.

"A lot of them, I know several, Lao Liu from Pinghe Foreign Company, and Chalisson from Delong Foreign Company..."

"Then do you know how much money he owe these people?"

"I don't know much about this. I have to say a few thousand yuan at least!" Gu's comprador looked at Qiu An alertly and said.

"Why does James owe money? Logically speaking, your Renji Foreign Company has a good business situation and should not be ineffective in capital turnover!" Qiu Andao, according to his understanding, Renji Foreign Company still makes money in Zhangjiakou.

"Maybe it was an investment, but he didn't tell me anyway!" Gu Maison said, "Forget it. I'll admit that I'm unlucky. Once James dies, don't think about taking back this money!"

"Mr. Gu, how many people know that James owes such a huge amount?"

"I should know this, anyone who lends money to him, but I don't know about other people. It's not a secret in this circle!"

"Then you don't know what James has borrowed money at all?" Qiu An asked.

"It seems like I'm going to do a big business, what exactly is. We really don't know!" Gu Maison said.

"Then you don't know who this business is related to?"

"Police officer, stop asking, I really don't know!" Gu's comprador trembled slightly.

"Mr. Gu, James is dead now. Anyone who has had a dispute with him during his lifetime, whether it is business or debt, is suspected of murder. Even if you are his subordinate, you cannot escape the suspicion. Therefore, you'd better tell everything you know. As for the business secrets you mentioned, we won't reveal them!" Qiu An knew what the comprador Gu was hiding, and immediately slapped the table and shouted sternly.

"Police officer, I really don't know what business it is, but I heard him mention what bill it is!"

"bill?"

"I don't know what bill can make money, and I find it strange, and I didn't dare to ask too much!" Gu Maison said.

"What else do you know?"

"It seems that the Japanese are also involved. I don't know what it is!" Gu Maison said.

"James asked you how much interest you had to lend money?" Qiu An asked.

"Three points, no, seven points!"

"How to calculate the seven-cent interest?"

"Seven minutes a month, cumulative increase!"

"I said, the seven-cent interest is not enough to attract people. How much did you lend to James?" Qiu An asked.

"Police officer, I'll tell you everything I know. You have to keep it a secret for me, otherwise I'll be in trouble!"

"Don't worry about this!"

"Ten thousand oceans!"

"How many?"

"Twenty thousand oceans!"

Qiu An looked at him with a smile, without saying a word.

"Fifty thousand oceans, police officer, I really said it all, this is half of my family!" Gu Competitor wailed.

"Fifty thousand oceans, this is really a waste of human heart. Is foreigners so easy to make money? Now, 50,000 oceans have been wasted?" Qiu An said sadly.

"It's all my fault. I'm obsessed with it. I'd love to not believe his nonsense. Alas, half of my possessions!"

"Okay, it seems that James has borrowed a lot of money from others, which may be the reason why he was killed!" Qiu Andao, "People die for money, birds die for food!"

"Captain Qiu, have you noticed it?" Inspector Lin finished his questioning to another comprador earlier and ran over and asked.

"Little bit, Lin Tan, where are you?"

"No, that guy said something worthless!" Inspector Lin shook his head and said.

"James hasn't borrowed money from that guy?" Qiu An asked.

"Borrow money?" Inspector Lin was stunned, "Have you heard him mention it?"

"You go and ask again and come back to your office!" Qiu An said, "I'm waiting for you there, let's discuss something!"

"Okay, then I'll ask again!" Inspector Lin glanced at Qiu An suspiciously, but turned around and went back. The comprador had not left yet.

Ten minutes later, Inspector Lin walked into his office with a look of astonishment.

“What’s the situation?”

"As soon as a result, James borrowed money from the comprador, a total of 30,000 yuan!" Inspector Lin said in amazement.

"My one is more, 50,000!" Qiu An said, "and there are more than two of them. I guess there are at least many people who have borrowed such loans, and each of them has borrowed almost 30,000 to 50,000!"

"How much? Everyone borrowed 30,000 to 50,000. James was crazy. How much does it cost?" said Inspector Lin.

"Maybe, we might have to bucket a huge hole!" Qiu An said seriously.

"Brother Qiu, you want to help me. I, a little detective, can't stand such a big case!" Inspector Lin became nervous.

"Don't worry, Inspector Lin, the case is now being paid attention to. We just need to investigate the case. If we find it, we will deal with it ourselves!" Qiu Andao.

"Yes, yes, I almost forgot this!"

"Inspector Lin, I think we may have touched the core of this case!" Qiu Andao.

"Brother, is James' death because of money?"

"Man dies for money, birds die for food. James borrows such money and promises such high interest, which must be a scary business with high profits. If it is a legitimate business, why should it be like this? The business must be incorrect, and there are Japanese people involved!" Qiu An explained.

"Japanese?"

"James' big business is cooperated with the Japanese. Now James is dead. As the saying goes, the debt is lost when a person dies. The money is borrowed by James. Those who borrow money can only ask James to pay back the money, and they can't find the Japanese, so this huge sum of money is likely to be in the hands of the Japanese!"

"As soon as James died, the Japanese took this huge sum of money, and no one knew about it!" Inspector Lin was shocked!

"It's right. The Japanese know how much money is. James must know. Although James is not a good person, he will definitely not leave any help!"

"You mean. ledger?"

"It's not necessarily an account book, maybe something else. In short, it can prove that the Japanese took such a large amount of money from him!" Qiu An said.

"Are you going to search Renji Foreign Company?"

"No, I will investigate the scene again. This time I will go with you!" Qiu An said.

"Brother, aren't you afraid that Lieutenant Colonel Wilson will get angry with you?"

"He took the initiative to give up cooperating with the investigation. Who did he blame?" Qiu An chuckled.

"All right!"

"Compulsory Gu drafted a list, which was his guess that the people who might borrow money to James. We must act separately and talk to the people above to understand the situation one by one, so that we can roughly know the amount of this huge sum!" Qiu An took out a list and said.

"Brother, you are still powerful. I am willing to give up the disadvantage and feel ashamed of myself!" Inspector Lin took a quick look and found that they were all famous figures in Xuanhua City.

"It's not good for you and I to come forward in this matter, we must..."

"I understand, let the director come forward, brother, why don't you tell me yourself?" Inspector Lin asked strangely.

"I didn't give this list to you, Inspector Lin, have you remembered it?" Qiu An smiled slightly.

"Brother, you're not a joke, how can you do this? I'm sorry for it!" Inspector Lin understood in an instant that Qiu An deliberately gave him this credit.

"Hey, you are the protagonist in handling the case this time. I'm just assisting in the investigation!" Qiu Andao.

Inspector Lin shivered for a moment and said, "Brother Qiu, you didn't say anything, I'll hand over your brother!"

"What? Lao Lin, are you right?"

"The testimony of these two people is here, and there is also this list. They are all good. If you don't believe it, go and have a look. We didn't torture the confession!"

"You really want to cause trouble for me. This matter is getting bigger and bigger. I have to ask the higher-ups for advice. You can go to the scene first!" The director thought for a while, sat down dejectedly, and waved his hand.

"Come to me to the 29th Army headquarters, I'll look for Song zx!"

"What, Liu Zhengnong, tell me again, what's going on?"

"Ming Gong, that's what it is..."

"Damn it, how could such a thing happen? The case is complicated now!" Song Mingxuan took a breath. A murder case actually led to an illegal fundraising case that might be involved!

He instinctively didn't believe that it was the case that Dong Kang was doing. Now he was 100% sure that Dong Kang could not kill anyone!

However, James had such a large sum of money involved, which was the real cause of this guy's murder.

Dong Kang just happened to be the best and took the blame.

The problem is that the British and Lieutenant Colonel Wilson insisted that this was done by Dong Kang. Now, no matter what they say, they would not believe it. Maybe they still think that this was an excuse for the police to deliberately cover up Dong Kang!

This murderer might have wanted to frame Dong Kang and chose to take action at this time. He even calculated the temper of the British and would definitely hold Dong Kang away.

And this is still a dead end. As long as the Chinese side investigates this case, the British cannot trust it. But the case that happened in China cannot be left to outsiders for investigation, right?

No one dares to do this that damages the national character, and Song Mingxuan dares not do it even more!
