Martin raised his head and his dark eyes were covered with a bit of unspeakable cruelty. "Have you ever thought about it? We have investigated all the things and everyone. In the end, I found that there was no too much conspiracy. It's just the simplest for money, fame and fortune."
From the Oracle plan to the Oracle fund, from a blueprint for tracing crimes to a guilty transaction of money, how many people were involved and killed? No one knew how deep these ditches were hidden in the shadows of daylight.
Lenny had never looked into Martin's eyes openly like now. Raising his eyebrows, he said "I've thought about it. No matter how complicated and difficult the case is, there must be some clues behind it. No matter how abnormal the manipulator behind it is, we will find out the result. I don't believe that there is really flawless crime in the world, and I don't believe that there is no disagreement between the plots. There will always be people who are greedy for profit groups."
Greed was the original sin.
Martin took a look at Lenny, who put away his cynical appearance. With a closer look, Lenny looked less unsophisticated and arrogant, more mature and reserved, as if the young man who had been pestering him and messing around had been reborn, and unknowingly became an adult.
Martin said, "If it weren't for greed, how could they get together? Greed is their weakness, and also our breakthrough point. People don't have backbone in front of interests. Even if they have, they have to use their weakness to destroy their backbone. Do you understand what I mean?"
At that moment, Lenny suddenly heard the sound of the gate opening in his heart, as if he had broken through the mist between the two people. Finally, he could stand in front of him and talk with him on an equal footing.
Lenny nodded and said, "So you have sent someone to investigate several small companies."
Martin replied, "Yes, is there a problem?"
Lenny shook his head again and said, "No problem. It seems that I came here for nothing."
As soon as his voice fell, his mobile phone suddenly rang, and the sudden ringtone broke the subtle atmosphere between the two people. The blue veins on his forehead jumped, and then he took out his mobile phone and slid the screen to answer it.
"Honey, where are you?" Arthur said gloomily.
A large black off-road vehicle was parked outside the headquarter building of the Lu Group. Arthur stretched out his leg, which had been limping for more than a month, and casually put it on the wide central control table. His face was a little green and flustered.
Now he not only felt that his face was a little green, but also his head was almost green.
Lenny took a deep breath and asked, "What do you want to do?"
He felt that Arthur suspected that he was going to have an affair all day long.
Arthur looked aggrieved. He hadn't lost his temper yet, but Lenny stopped him first. He thought that sure enough, the person who gave first in love was miserable.
"I don't want to do anything. I just happened to pass by to do some work and saw your car parking downstairs of the headquarter building of the Lu Group. So I'm calling to care about you."
In fact he meant, 'I saw you have an affair with my own eyes!'
