Chapter 387 Scared to Cry
Thomas sat on the chair without saying a word. No matter what the police asked, he asked to wait until the lawyer arrived before speaking.
Many people were arrested, and others kept silent. Only the two boys sent by Minh kept talking in Vietnamese.
They pretended not to know English or Mandarin, which gave the police a headache. They had to go to the branch to find someone who could speak Vietnamese.
At this time, Thomas was sitting there expressionlessly, not looking panicked at all.
He is a thoughtful person. Before washing the rice, he had already thought about the possibility of being caught. Especially after Crown discovered the last time he opened a private casino in Doncaster, he became more and more cautious in doing things.
Including selling fake cigarettes to Ouyang Ming before, he was able to escape unscathed, and he felt that he was no exception this time.
Why were you arrested?
Is there something wrong with the international students we brought today?
Didn’t I promise to give them generous rewards? You won't hand me over because you don't have enough money.
I have told Devin before what to say and do if he is caught. This guy will not forget it.
Just as Thomas thought, Devin did forget to mention it this time. He had committed crimes in Crown several times and had told so many international students that he had forgotten whether he had mentioned the precautions.
It doesn't matter, don't panic, I have hired the most powerful lawyer among Chinese people, and I have helped many gangs fight lawsuits. This matter will definitely not be difficult for him, it will just cost him more money.
That bastard Minh also said that Crown has high-level protection to protect the ball! As a result, I have been invited to the police station now.
This group of guys just now were so scary. Just like in the movie, they rushed in with guns in hand without saying a word. I am not a terrorist.
It's a pity that it's under the police's nose now, otherwise Minh would have been notified on his mobile phone.
Thomas forced himself to calm down and think about the next countermeasures.
He had communicated with his lawyer before. As long as there was insufficient evidence, he would definitely not be sentenced. The money earned from washing rice was not in his account, and he did not have a large amount of cash at home. He would definitely be fine.
Crown.
"Look clearly, this is your accomplice Thomas. He is now at the police station. He has already confessed everything. If you want to save yourself now, you can only provide more useful information. Thomas now Say that you did all the rice washing..." Ma Yueling took out her phone and waved it in front of Devin. The person who appeared on the screen was Thomas, and this was a photo sent from the police station.
Thomas was indeed caught.
This woman is not bluffing!
It’s over.
The last trace of luck in Devin's heart disappeared, and he was thinking about what to say.
Will Thomas really blame them for everything?
If not, wouldn't it be self-defeating if he talks nonsense?
If Thomas really does this, if he doesn't take action, Ma Yueling's revenge will come.
"Chen Xi, help me, I don't want to go to jail! Oh~" Li Yuqing, who was sitting on the ground, cried harder and harder.
Shi Tao's face was also frighteningly white, which made Devin even more scared.
Ma Yueling winked at Chen Xi. Chen Xi was slightly startled, looking at Li Yuqing on the ground and squatting down slightly.
"Hey, don't cry. Now that things have happened, you have to think about how to make up for it. As the saying goes, you should be lenient if you confess, but you should be harsh. Only by making up for your mistakes can you have a chance of survival. Tell everything you know, so that you can I will be treated leniently in court..."
"Woo~"
After hearing this, Li Yuqing hugged Chen Xi directly, tears streaming down her face.
Chen Xi hugged Li Yuqing and thought of the times in his past life when she cried in his arms like this.
He still knows Li Yuqing. This woman can't do big bad things, but she can do small things. Usually I just take advantage of it and make some small calculations.
For something like washing rice, she probably wouldn't do it if she knew the truth in advance.
"Okay, be good, tell me everything you know. There are people from Crown here. They just want to catch the mastermind behind the scenes. You are just being used as a gun..." Chen Xi wiped away Wiping Li Yuqing's tears, he then touched her head, trying to calm her down.
"It's all him, he asked us to do it all. First, he transferred money to our cards, and then came to the Crown account room to exchange chips. He said it doesn't matter whether we win or lose, and let us bet according to the arranged amount..." Li Yuqing pointed at Devin and said a lot. She hated this man now. It was all this guy's fault, and she ended up going to jail.
"Yes, it's him, and he also has accomplices. Several men brought us here. The other international students were also unaware..." Shi Tao immediately began to add Knife, I want to atone for my sins.
He also specifically emphasized that other international students were involved. A unique idea among Chinese people is: the law does not punish the public. Shi Tao felt that as long as there were enough people involved, small characters like them who were instigated by others would definitely not be sentenced to any serious crimes.
Ma Yueling immediately asked people to separate those international students and asked Li Yuqing, Shi Tao, and Chen Xi to do their ideological work. Then she asked these people to testify against Thomas' accomplices, and then used coercion and inducement to make them List the evidence of Thomas, the mastermind behind the scenes, one by one.
After a long time, while Cole was still communicating with Minh, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Ma Yueling walked in with a smile. Cole immediately became energetic, pointed at her and started to curse: "Smelly woman, I tell you, you'd better let me go now, otherwise the director will I can't forgive you! ...Dong... Chairman."
Halfway through the scolding, Cole suddenly saw Ma Yueling take a step to the side, and a slightly fat ghost appeared. In front of him was Parker, the chairman of Crown Group.
Seeing Parker coming, Cole rushed up as if seeing a savior, crying about the treatment he had just received.
Then he pointed at the men in suits next to him and accused Ma Yueling of abusing her power and wanting to rebel.
Parker glared at Cole, he felt very complicated now.
Parker was very angry when Cole washed the rice in private behind his back this time.
But Cole was also involved in the rice washing that he authorized.
If Cole is handed over to the police for conviction, his case may be exposed.
When the official witnesses and physical evidence are complete, he will definitely be in bad luck.
But someone must take the blame for this matter. Ma Yueling is impossible. She is now the one who caught Cole laundering money...
"Everyone else, get out. , you two stay." Parker pointed at Ma Yueling and Cole.
Soon there were only three people left in the room, and Chen Xi was in another room. He was constantly comforting Li Yuqing and Shi Tao.
"Don't worry, I will Crown discuss it..." Chen Xi pulled Li Yuqing and Shi Tao aside and said in a low voice.
"Chen Xi, even if you don't go to jail this time, you will probably be fined. How can I have so much money... Wuwu~"
"Yes, the total amount of the two of us combined There are millions, and we can’t even pay the fine.”
The two of them looked at Chen Xi with sad faces.
"It's okay. How many people did Thomas find in the school to do this?" Chen Xi waved his hand and started asking about the business.
"Many, I have probably found dozens of people in the past few months. I went there just to see that they all made money." Li Yuqing wiped her tears. She saw that others had made money and did not contribute any money. This kind of good thing must be It's necessary to participate.
"I was dragged over by Li Yuqing. Anyway, I saw that a lot of people were participating, and I also know a few friends who have also been there." Shi Tao glared at Li Yuqing, his eyes full of confusion. To blame, if this woman hadn't dragged him here, he would probably still be playing games leisurely in the Internet cafe.
"Why are you glaring at me? I just want to make a fortune with you! We are all from Jiangcheng, and fellow villagers help fellow villagers!" Li Yuqing suddenly felt confident.
“I’m helping my fellow countrymen. I think you’re trying to trick my fellow countrymen.”
“Whatever you say, my starting point is all good, it’s just something bad happened to me. "Li Yuqing was very aggrieved.
In fact, she didn't dare to go alone. She pulled Shitao there because there was a man who could protect her if something happened.
"Okay, send me the phone numbers and names of the people you know. It's best to write down the addresses of those who have them." Chen Xi looked at the two of them and said solemnly.
"Isn't this good? The police will look for them when the time comes. Am I not betraying others?" Shi Tao looked embarrassed.
"Thomas has been arrested, as well as those accomplices. These international students will be taken away sooner or later. Rather than doing this, it is better to find them first and let everyone testify against Thomas..."
"Just listen to Chen Xi, why are you so long-winded?" Li Yuqing pushed Shi Tao and asked him to follow the instructions quickly.
