Chapter 527: Afraid You'll Be Scared If I Say It
"So much money?"
Yu Dazhang had expected a huge sum, but he never imagined it reached the level of "hundred million."
Zhang Yanlong's main target group was students with no income source; these people struggled even to repay the principal, so where did all this money come from?
"No one springs from a crack in a stone."
Lu Zhongxin sighed:
"Behind those college students are impoverished families one by one; to help their children repay the debts, many families went bankrupt, ending up with nowhere to live."
Squeezing out all the remaining value of a family... Yu Dazhang concluded in his heart.
Although the student group has no money, this group is the most prone to impulsive spending.
The 17-year-old boy who sold a kidney to buy an Apple phone in 2011 is already a Level 3 disabled person, yet countless people are still following in his footsteps.
Comparison is part of human nature, so it simply cannot be eliminated.
"Zhang Yanlong's financial company also has money-laundering operations."
Lu Zhongxin continued:
"Colleagues from the Economic Crime Investigation Department are investigating further; now this case involves two departments."
The more thoroughly it is investigated, the better... Yu Dazhang thought this was a good thing.
Evil must be eradicated completely; naturally, he hoped everyone on this line would be brought to justice.
"Didn't Zhang Yanlong's family react at all?" Yu Dazhang asked.
This was a topic that could not be avoided.
Zhang Yanlong's family background was somewhat complicated; relevant departments would definitely intervene and investigate.
"That Secretary Hong was detained by the Discipline Inspection Commission."
Lu Zhongxin looked left and right, then spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"Going higher is beyond our reach, but one thing is certain: regardless of whether his family members were involved in his affairs, this time they will probably not escape responsibility."
"Human lives are at stake; now that this case has caused such a stir, no one can suppress it."
In other words, even if they wanted to suppress it, it was too late.
Actually, when this case first began, Secretary Hong and his team intervened at just the right moment.
If not for Yu Dazhang, Wang Lingling's suicide case would very likely have been transferred to the General Detachment.
If it had really been transferred away, the result would have been different.
"Can't suppress it..."
Yu Dazhang savored his master's words and felt something seemed to be missing.
After sleeping for 14 consecutive hours, he was now in a state of full vigor and abundant energy, so his thinking was naturally more active.
Under normal circumstances, criminal police have a habit when handling cases: being result-oriented.
But complex cases are often not as simple as they appear on the surface.
Take this case right here, for example.
It looks like a "second-generation rich kid" trying to prove himself, capable of achieving something without relying on his father.
The process of being beaten down by society and gradually turning Xiao Heihua.
With the case at this point, the facts are clear and the evidence is solid; one could say the truth has been fully revealed.
If viewed purely from a "result-oriented" perspective, this case could absolutely enter the closing procedure.
But if we return to the initial stage of this matter, when Zhang Yanlong first opened his first online lending platform...
At this moment, Yu Dazhang's eyes lost focus, and without realizing it, he had fallen into deep thought.
A question emerged in his mind.
Did Zhang Yanlong have the ability to set up an online lending platform?
The answer was no.
It wasn't that Yu Dazhang looked down on him, but this industry has a threshold.
To put it bluntly, not just anyone can do it.
Resources, understanding, direction, choices...
None can be missing.
And Zhang Yanlong, a "second-generation rich kid" whose own family didn't even support him, simply had no conditions to start a business.
