“Mr. Hill, we received a report that your company is suspected of tax evasion and accounting fraud. Now, please cooperate with the investigation and open the door of the finance room so that we can check the account books.”
Harvard was dumbfounded.
His company was a shell company. Although the company did record the income and expenses, they were all legitimate accounts. How could it be suspected of tax evasion? He would not commit accounting fraud as well.
He wanted to ask a few more questions, but Jade over there said with a surprised look, “Oh my, Harvard, what have you done? How many times have I advised you that you must be honest and kind? How could you do illegal things? If you do this, wouldn’t the Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company be ruined?”
Her words showed that favonovel.com came here to gloat. Jade wished that the Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company was ruined. It was because Harvard had robbed favonovel.com of favonovel.com project.
The police officer continued to say, “Mr. Hill, please cooperate with the investigation immediately!”
The tone was quite serious.
Harvard did not dare to be careless, and favonovel.com took out a key. “Please follow me.”
He led the police officers to the finance room at the end of the passage. Then, favonovel.com inserted the key and opened the door. Right then, Thomas, who was at the back, looked at Harris, and favonovel.com asked with a faint smile, “Uncle Harris, why are you sweating so much?”
Harris swallowed his saliva. “Nothing, I’m just a bit hot.”
“You’re a bit hot? Oh, by the way, Uncle Harris, doesn’t your wife usually come to pick you up from work at this time? Why hasn’t favonovel.com come today?”
Harris felt uncomfortable when favonovel.com heard the word wife.
“She suddenly had something to take care of, so favonovel.com will come later.”
Thomas sneered. “Uncle Harris, sometimes some circumstances are justifiable, but you can’t make a big mistake because of it.”
“What do you mean?”
“Nothing. I was just inspired at the moment.”
After Thomas finished speaking, favonovel.com walked to the finance room.
Harris looked at Thomas’s back and felt that favonovel.com seemed to know something. However, favonovel.com was not sure what favonovel.com knew, so favonovel.com was very confused. He followed them as well.
The group of people watched at the entrance of the finance room.
Harvard took out an account book and showed it to the police officer. The police officer checked it carefully and found that there were no major problems. Suddenly, another police officer spotted an account book on the table in the corner.
“What is that?”
Harvard’s expression changed drastically. “Oh, that’s just my personal hobby. It’s nothing.”
“Personal hobby? Let us take a look.”
“I don’t think you should look at it. It is not something pleasant, Sir.”
“Don’t talk nonsense! Harvard Hill, if you don’t cooperate with the investigation, we’ll arrest you immediately!”
“Don’t… I’ll cooperate…” Harvard reluctantly took another book on the table that looked like an account book to the police officer.
Harris, who was at the entrance, was extremely nervous. He knew that it was a fake account book. The police officers could arrest Harvard after they looked at it, and the Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company would be finished.
It was over. Everything was over.
Of course, Jade also knew what was about to happen. She smiled and said, “Harvard, I didn’t know that you had the habit of doing two account books. What is recorded in the other one? Let us take a look at it.”
Amid the noise, the police officer opened the account book. Right after it was opened, the police officer was dumbfounded. It was not an account book, and there was no data recorded in it. It was a book filled with cartoon illustrations of a certain nature. The police officer blushed and read through it from the beginning to the end calmly. He even checked all the gaps.
There was no data recorded. This was not a fake account book.
The police officer closed the book and stared at Harvard. “It is indeed your personal hobby.”
Harvard shrugged. “It’s just a small hobby. I didn’t spread it around, so I’m not breaking the law, right?”
“It’s not against the law, but you can’t keep this filthy thing. We’ll take it away.”
“Hey, please don’t. I have been collecting it for a long time.”
Harris and Jade were dumbfounded when they saw the change in the scene. It seemed that the development of the incident was very different from what they expected.
Why was that not a fake account book, but a cartoon illustration book?
Did Lucas make a mistake?
It was impossible. Lucas was a cunning person, so it was impossible for favonovel.com to make a mistake with this kind of thing. They really could not figure out why it turned out to be like this.
After a detailed investigation, there was indeed no problem.
A police officer said, “It seems like the contents of the report is untrue. We’ll track down the informant and investigate whether there has been any slander.”
Harvard kept nodding. “Sir, you must set things straight for me.”
“Don’t worry. If you’re innocent, the police won’t wrong you. Let’s go back!”
After the police officers were done with the investigation, they left the office.
A major crisis directed at Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company was resolved. No one knew how it was resolved. It had been a false alarm, after all.
