50 A Big Case Caused by Nineteen Copper Wheels

"The general trend is already formed..."

Although saying this is a bit secondary, Hearing Li Ang thought and thought, feeling that this sentence is incomparably suitable to describe the situation of Charle Department Store now.

When Charle Department Store first started making trouble, maybe someone could stop it. After all, when the train hasn't started, just putting a small wooden block on the track is enough to block it.

But now the momentum is so big, more and more people have benefited, and more people are waiting for compensation, which is equivalent to the train already running. At this time, let alone wooden blocks, even if it is a solid iron wall, if you dare to block the road, you will be pierced through!

Between his curiosity about that Old Charle and his chat with the carriage driver, the steam carriage roared and hurried all the way, and had already arrived near the headquarters building of Charle Department Store.

Looking out through the polished glass, seeing the crazy crowd outside, and the large money box that was about to be filled, Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but click his tongue secretly, while marveling at the big hand of that Old Charle, while feeling distressed and taking out two silver wheels and handing them to the carriage driver.

"Change!"

"..."

Looking at Hearing Li Ang, who was calm and reached out to him after giving the money, the carriage driver couldn't help but smack his lips speechlessly.

Good guy, twenty-two kilometers from the starting point to here, twenty-two minus five plus two, this trip should have collected nineteen copper wheels from you, and I have answered every question along the way, and chatted with you for so long with a hoarse voice, and you didn't even want to give a tip of a copper wheel?

Stingy you to death!

Sorry, giving tips is a bad habit of rich people, and I have been a poor ghost for two lifetimes, and I haven't completely escaped poverty yet, so I don't deserve such extravagant expenses.

Under the white eyes of the carriage driver, Hearing Li Ang took the change of one copper wheel, hugged the folder with dried blood in his arms, and got off the carriage both happily and depressedly.

The motivation that had been driving him to steal data from the Water Company and contact newspaper offices to find people to expose it was to pull a hand for those patients who were wailing in the hospital corridor, feeling that only by poking this matter out and making a big deal could these people have a chance to get enough compensation for treatment.

But before he successfully poked the matter out, those patients had already started to receive compensation. Hearing Li Ang, whose burden was unloaded, felt a sense of loss of having missed the target while feeling relieved.

Hmm... why don't I go see that "Old Charle"!

Remembering the situation he heard outside the conference room of the Water Company, Hearing Li Ang pondered for a while, and then walked toward the building of Charle Department Store.

When he heard the dispute in the conference room back then, the three noble families headed by Lionheart Laien seemed to be in order to swallow Charle Department Store, they deliberately reduced the number of filtrations and poured unpurified feces into the public water pool.

Although the patients received compensation, these three bastards have not been punished yet. He happened to have the operation records of the Water Company and several documents of approval,

Although the priority of "punishing evil" is far less high than "helping the poor," after all, the Kingdom has tons of rotten things every day, and he simply can't manage them all, but...

Since I'm here, my twenty copper wheels can't be spent in vain!

"You mean, those most important documents are missing?"

After listening to the report from the detective agency, the editor-in-chief of the social edition of "Daily News" couldn't help but be angry, lightly knocked on the thick willow wood desk in front of him with his knuckles that were thick due to years of labor, and said with displeasure:

"Not to mention just buying off some security guards and file keepers, the fees I paid you these days are enough to buy off a county councilor. Are you really working hard for me?"

"This... Mr. Charle, the situation this time is a bit special..."

Seeing that his biggest gold master was angry, the people from the detective agency couldn't help but change their expressions,

Hurriedly explained:

"We really tried our best. Not only did we buy off two teams of security guards, but we also bought off several followers of the Tower Shield family, and kidnapped the families of many employees in the Water Company's file room.

Taking advantage of the fact that your wife held a meeting for three consecutive days, diverting everyone's attention, when the Water Company was at its most relaxed, our people had completely controlled the file room.

But just after our people organized a few materials, they followed those file keepers into the inner room and started searching for the remaining files for a few minutes, but that damn security manager happened to enter the outer room.

He didn't know what kind of ghost luck he had. We piled up nearly thirty files on the table, and he picked them up casually, but he happened to take away the two most important ones. Mr. Charle, we are really..."

"Enough! I'm not interested in your story!"

Glancing at the unlucky look of the person from the detective agency, Old Charle, who was full of bloodshot eyes, couldn't help but twist his eyebrows, and said unkindly:

"What mistakes you made is your business. What I want is evidence that can prove that those three old noble families, especially the Laien family, deliberately violated regulations! Since the things are in the hands of the security manager, then go get them back for me!"

"This..."

The person from the detective agency took out a handkerchief, wiped the hot sweat from his head, bowed his head and said:

"Our people followed him as soon as they found the things missing, but not long after the security manager got the files, they were snatched away by a person who mixed into the conference room, that is the policeman who saved your wife.

And that little policeman, after taking the things, took our people and ran around in the Water Company, and estimated that he had installed tripwires in some hidden places in advance, causing our people to fall and bleed, and several of them fainted..."

After pausing here, he let the person with bandages on his head come over, opened his mouth to show the empty tooth bed at the front teeth, and the person from the detective agency continued to explain with a wry smile:

"Mr. Charle, I know this sounds hard to believe, but look at his teeth... our people are really playing with their lives, but they really can't catch up with him.

Mainly because that person's physical fitness is really amazing, and it seems he has undergone some special training. After playing our people fiercely and confirming that no one could catch up to interfere with him, he only spent less than ten seconds to rush to the sixth floor.

Then he kicked the air window to pieces and turned out directly from the sixth floor. It seems he ran away from the pre-tied slide rail. Our people chased all the way behind, but they didn't even see what he looked like..."

"Then go find the people who have met him!"

After pressing his buzzing head, Old Charle knocked on the table coldly again.

"I have raised you for so many years, spent so much money every year, and hired so many people in total, what I want is to be able to come in handy at such a time!

No matter if it is money or other means, in short, no matter who he is, you must find him for me! Get those documents!"

"Okay, Mr. Charle, we have already been doing this in this regard!"

Seeing that the old man didn't seem to be prepared to continue to pursue his responsibility, the people from the detective agency were overjoyed, nodded repeatedly and guaranteed:

"That person has been lowering his head to block his face with his hat brim. The only people who have seen his full face are your daughter and that lucky security manager.

And because your wife had a sudden illness, your daughter was a bit... excited at the time, so she didn't see it clearly and couldn't describe the person's appearance, so we put the focus of the investigation on that security manager, and now we have vaguely found some clues!"

"Mr. Charle, rest assured, as long as those materials have not been destroyed, our 'Silver Hook' guarantees to take them back for you!" ===== CHAPTER 51 =====
