Chapter 340 - Helping Each Other (1/2)

”How was it?” Lu Yin Ze asked.

”It costs 1 million Yuan.”

”...”

Lu Yin Ze was stunned. Their friend would not even spare them.

”So did you pay for it?” Lu Yin Ze asked. Xiong Zhi was the heiress of Xiong. That was only like a few coins for her.

”Of course, I didn't. You should pay for it.”

”...”

”...”

Xiong Zhi blinked. Was there something wrong with what she said?

”Alright.” Lu Yin Ze transferred the sum to Gu Zhen's account. He did not question why this stingy Young Miss did not pay for it.

”Once the file is in our email, I will look into it,” Xiong Zhi offered. They had been tracking down every file and business transactions in the flash drive in various databases. However, like they expected, the files were secured by those companies.

They could only go to Gu Zhen, since he was very talented and was the only person they could trust with this. When Gu Zhen checked the first file, his passion and enthusiasm was ignited. He said that this file was protected by the same security system that Xiong Zhi had let him open two years ago, with the mysterious 'L' file.

It took him a lot of time, but he still cracked it. When they were about to let him open the next file, Gu Zhen finally asked them a fee, because it took him hours of non-stop effort to open each file, which drained a lot of his energy.

With that, the trio finally made a deal. The harder it was to crack a file, the more expensive it would be. They trusted that Gu Zhen would not deceive them, his pride and credibility would not allow it.

But despite the fees, one successful attempt was enough to gather much information about a listed company. They were all filled with shady dealings that could cause them their downfall. However, this was not enough, as they were planning on giving Ming Zhi Yi a one huge blow that would corner him, without any ways of retreat.

That was why they went deeper. However, the deeper it was, the shadier and darker the things they found. Some even lead them to more questions. Not to mention, it was all matters from ten and eight years ago, and now that two and a half years had passed, it was already around ten years and some cases were twelve years ago.

So even after two years, they only managed to focus on the five files they opened.

As all data in the flash drive were more than a decade old, they could not hold that much impact and damage, so they looked for more. Especially for the recent dealings.

A bone-deep black hand would not be able to easily whitewash, so there definitely would be more of these in the recent years.
