The people from the prosecutor’s office produced six property deeds, displaying them in front of Han Dongting. The deeds clearly showed that people with direct familial relations to him possessed multiple properties under their nas.
"We specifically looked into the value of these properties, each with an average value of 1.8 million. Your wife is just an ordinary accounting clerk. Where did the money for these properties co from?" one of the prosecutors asked sharply, his tone grave.
This question alone had Han Dongting stamring. He could only force himself to argue, "This... this... this doesn’t prove anything, right? We saved up diligently, and a lot of it was support from our parents..."
"Support from your parents?" The questioning prosecutor furrowed his brow and continued, "According to our understanding, both your parents and your wife’s parents are ordinary farrs."
"Your son and daughter have only just graduated from university."
"Where did all these assets truly co from?"
After a series of questions, Han Dongting was completely dumbfounded. All avenues for his defense were blocked. These three prosecutors... It was clear they had co prepared. He simply could not explain the origin of these properties.
"I... my daughter once won first prize in a lottery..." Ultimately, he could only try to attribute the source of the properties to lottery winnings.
However, the three prosecutors exchanged glances and pressed further, "What kind of lottery was it? Which store did she buy it from? When did she buy it? When was the prize claid? How much did she win at the ti?"
After another barrage of questions, Han Dongting was dumbfounded once again. Faced with this kind of exhaustive interrogation, his fabricated lies seed riddled with holes. He could only say, bracing himself, "I’ve forgotten all that information. I need to check when I get ho."
The prosecutor in the middle nodded and spoke solemnly, "This is just a preliminary investigation. You must provide a reasonable explanation for your enormous assets as soon as possible. Co to the prosecutor’s office tomorrow morning with your findings."
After finishing their series of questions, the three prosecutors imdiately packed up and left the reception room, leaving behind Han Dongting, who was sweating profusely, his back soaked.
He sat collapsed in his chair, pale-faced.
With the source of his enormous assets unclear, it was obvious he was being investigated!
At this thought, he picked up his phone and made a call.
"Hello? Lao Liu, we have a big problem."
A deep voice ca from the other end of the phone, "What happened?"
"I... I’ve suddenly been investigated. Soone reported ..." Han Dongting let out a bitter laugh. He recounted what happened that afternoon. "Lao Liu," he said, "do you think soone found out about recomnding your pharmaceuticals through my prescriptions? I’m just a doctor at a private hospital; there shouldn’t be any problem, right?"
Over the phone, he voiced all his worries.
The person on the line was Liu Qiao, the owner of Wanantang Pharmacy.
Three years ago, Liu Qiao had approached him to help promote his pharmaceuticals, offering a commission. Thus, the two began their collaboration. Han Dongting recomnded expensive pharmaceuticals to the hospital’s patients—drugs that could treat illnesses but weren’t specialized or targeted treatnts. Since that ti, Liu Qiao had been delivering hundreds of thousands of dollars to him every month. His earnings had increased more and more.
Over the past three years, their arrangent had been very secure. There had never been any problems.
But now... he didn’t know what had gone wrong; he was suddenly being investigated.
"Don’t panic just yet. I know a lawyer. I’ll ask him about the situation and get back to you later," ca Liu Qiao’s low voice from the phone.
「anwhile.」
「Outside Sanhe Hospital.」
「Inside Wanantang.」
Liu Qiao put down his phone, his expression incredibly frantic. At that mont, he was far less composed than he had sounded on the call. Han Dongting’s call had truly alard him.
He’s just an ordinary doctor... and he’s implicated in the cri of failing to account for the source of his enormous assets?
He clenched his teeth, his face filled with disbelief.
