After leaving Rochelle Horn's house, Little Black lifted a heavy travel bag, "Thomas Colley still has a shred of conscience; at least he did not deceive Rochelle Horn and left so money for Rochelle Horn's family.
Of course, I don't advocate Rochelle Horn's behavior, but I do feel a bit sorry for his circumstances..."
Luke sat in the passenger seat, pondering over the matter as well, though his angle of thinking was different from Little Black's.
Little Black thought about Rochelle Horn's family.
Luke, on the other hand, was thinking about Thomas Colley.
Thomas Colley once said his situation was similar to Rochelle Horn's, as he too joined Kerman Pharmaceutical Company to test dicine after losing his job to support his family.
This ant he was also a responsible person.
Rochelle Horn used his own death to exchange for two hundred thousand US dollars and compensation from Kerman Pharmaceutical Company to ensure his family's welfare, fulfilling his responsibility before leaving.
Moreover, that two hundred thousand US dollars was provided by Thomas Colley.
Thomas Colley could help resolve Rochelle Horn's worries, but what about his own concerns? Isn't he worried that his family might face difficulties after his death?
Previously, he had said he even mortgaged his house to gather that two hundred thousand US dollars.
Luke felt there was sothing amiss here.
Since Thomas Colley was the sa type of person as Rochelle Horn, he would certainly also leave so money for his family to secure their future life if he found out he might be caught.
Where did his money co from?
Upon returning to the detective bureau, Luke gathered his team to arrange tasks.
There were three main aspects to the task: first, investigate whether Thomas Colley actually worked as a drug tester at Kerman Pharmaceutical Company.
Second, investigate Thomas Colley's financial status.
Third, investigate Thomas Colley's family situation.
...
Eight o'clock at night.
A rcedes-Benz G500 parked near Kerman Pharmaceutical Company.
In the driver's seat, Luke lit a cigarette and took a puff.
He drove here to et the research director of Kerman Pharmaceutical Company, Fred Krar.
The reason for not going directly to Kerman Pharmaceutical Company was that Luke ca here with a personal agenda this ti.
Luke had confiscated the stolen money from Christian Horn's ho, which was legally permissible, but Christian Horn didn't have a job and had to support two children. The family was indeed in a difficult situation, and Luke didn't want them to end up in a hopeless situation.
Luke arranged to et Fred Krar today with personal intentions. If both parties were willing, he would let Fred Krar go and talk to Christian Horn, allowing each party to get what they needed.
If there was no intention, Luke would have done his part as well.
As long as it didn't affect his own interests, he didn't mind helping others, but if things got too troubleso, he couldn't be bothered.
Overall, Luke was a kind person, though... his benevolence was limited.
A black Porsche parked by the roadside, and a middle-aged man stepped out of the car, none other than Fred Krar.
Fred Krar walked towards the rcedes-Benz, knocked on the passenger seat window, and opened the car door, "Captain Li."
"Director Fred Krar, let's talk inside the car."
Fred Krar got in the car and looked at Luke beside him, "Captain Li, why not discuss it directly at Kerman Pharmaceutical Company?"
Luke briefly described the day's matter.
Fred Krar asked in return, "Captain Li, do you want to sponsor Christian Horn's family?"
"Not you, but your company.
Of course, this is just a personal suggestion and doesn't represent the bureau."
"Money is not the issue, but the false report letter her husband wrote has already caused significant losses to our company, and the higher-ups may not agree."
"Now, the only way to minimize the impact of that report letter is through Christian Horn.
You are a smart person, you should be able to understand this principle." Luke certainly wouldn't foolishly say, "I feel sorry for Christian Horn's family and want to facilitate cooperation between you," but rather consider the problem from Kerman Pharmaceutical Company's standpoint.
Of course, the result would be the sa.
Fred Krar rubbed his hands together, carrying a hint of anticipation, "Can she step forward and speak for our company?"
"That's for you to discuss yourselves."
"How much does she want?"
"I don't know." Luke shrugged, "I've been in charge of investigating this case; I know your company hasn't conducted illegal human experints, and Rochelle Horn's death is unrelated to your company; soone deliberately sared your company.
I just feel Christian Horn can help your company, that's all."
"Thank you, Captain Li, I've rembered all the help you've given to our company." Fred Krar patted his chest; the recent string of incidents had left him overwheld and breathless.
Previously, Luke helped him retrieve so research data for the new hypertension dicine, and now he brought another chance to restore the company's reputation, which was undoubtedly a welco relief for him and Kerman Pharmaceutical Company.
Just then, a black Ford sedan approached from behind, reducing its speed and stopped not far from the rcedes-Benz, separated only by two lanes.
Luke turned to glance and saw the right-side window of the black Ford sedan rolled down, instinctively reaching for his sidearm Night Hawk 1911.
