The new clue that Lei Ying brought back was indeed surprising. According to him, it came from the vice president of a company currently under investigation, providing evidence of that vice president and several others secretly plotting for personal gain.

But it was precisely these secret dealings between the second-in-command of the companies that remarkably connected to unveil more, even more worthwhile clues to investigate, unearthing things they hadn’t previously uncovered, or perhaps things covered up by the companies’ top leaders.

The most unexpected part is that these findings also revealed secrets at a higher level, pointing directly to the next level up in these companies, meaning the sword is aimed at the Executive Vice President of the Group’s African Division—Cilio!

Lin Weiwei flipped through those documents, her eyes practically sparkling with delight.

"Xiaosheng, this is really like someone delivering a pillow to you right when you’re drowsy. If we keep investigating this line, Cilio won’t be able to escape this time! Even his father, Mr. Brown, the President of the African Division, won’t be able to save him from punishment like last time!"

While stuffing his mouth with Bai Xiaosheng’s breakfast, Lei Ying excitedly said, "I’ve already arranged for people to follow up on some of it. This time, we need to act quickly so they have no time to react. In the world of martial arts, there’s nothing unbreakable, with speed being invincible!"

Lin Weiwei nodded repeatedly at Lei Ying’s words, looking as if she agreed wholeheartedly, almost wanting to clap high-five with Lei Ying in celebration.

Bai Xiaosheng remained very composed, smiling while listening to the two, his eyes still roving over the pages of clues.

"Xiaosheng, why do you look...not too happy," Lin Weiwei noticed Bai Xiaosheng’s expression, and couldn’t help but mutter.

"He’s ultimately someone in a high position, doesn’t show exuberance in appearance, that’s how it should be," Lei Ying joked with a smile.

Bai Xiaosheng kept a calm look, shook his head, and murmured, "With so many vice presidents and executives in the group engaging in shady dealings, uncovering this is a good thing, but feeling really happy about it... How can one be happy. After all, we still have to stay on this big ship of the group for the long haul. Seeing rat holes and ant nests everywhere, and holes all over, it’s not just disgusting, but also infuriating."

With Bai Xiaosheng saying this, Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying exchanged glances and quieted down a bit.

"Alright, I’m just saying. Anyway, whatever happens, we’ve made great progress this time! Let’s not dwell on the unhappy stuff!" Bai Xiaosheng set the materials down on the table and said to the two with a smile, "Come, let’s eat first! After the meal, we’ll sit down and plan well. Next, let’s hurry with the investigation, just as Lei Ying said, act fast and catch them off guard!"

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying nodded immediately.

While they were eating, Bai Xiaosheng continued, "We’ve been staying here in Xisuli with the business group for quite some time. I think we’ll likely head out in the next couple of days. I have to leave with the group, and for the investigations, I can’t help much, so I’ll have to trouble you two to do the running around."

Lin Weiwei immediately laughed, "Xiaosheng, no need to be so formal with us, it’s our duty. Besides, it’s not like the two of us are fighting alone this time, having to do everything ourselves. Look, we have supervision department staff everywhere, coordinating inside and out, with at least a hundred people including external associates. It’s not hard or exhausting! Plus, you know, through this operation, we really learned a lot."

"Indeed," Lei Ying added, "don’t worry, we’ll handle this beautifully and give you a satisfying answer."

Hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

He naturally believed that these two would not let him down.

After breakfast, they chatted a bit more, and then Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying got up together to leave, to investigate new clues and new directions.

Bai Xiaosheng sat quietly by himself for a while, pondering for over ten minutes, then took out his phone and chatted with someone through a messaging app for a while, before getting up to leave.

When Bai Xiaosheng left, his steps were steady, neither rushed nor slow.

In terms of investigation, speed is indeed imperative.

But the waiting process for the investigation cannot be hurried; one must remain calm and steady.

By noon, Hou Yuncheng’s secretary notified Bai Xiaosheng that the business group would move to the next country by the evening.

During these days, the other members of the business group had reportedly made substantial gains.

Of course, Bai Xiaosheng’s side also had significant gains, as he had formed a strategic partnership with the Winsmo Group, incorporating them into his Global Business Alliance, which was an enormous achievement.

As he was having lunch, Wen Yan called Bai Xiaosheng to inquire about the current work progress and understand some situations.

Actually, Wen Yan might not be wholly unaware of the happenings here, as after all, those supervision staff ultimately take orders from him, but he still needed to technically ’hear’ things from Bai Xiaosheng, which indeed involved the subtle art of dealing with people.

Bai Xiaosheng had a lengthy conversation with Wen Yan over the phone.

Some situations and Bai Xiaosheng’s plans, coming from Bai Xiaosheng’s mouth, indeed left Wen Yan surprised.

"I had always been worried, Xiaosheng, that you’re too eager to excel, wanting to seize this chance to shine brightly, but I didn’t expect you to be so meticulous and steady. Now I’m relieved! Go ahead with your plans, and if you need any support, just let me know!" Wen Yan said candidly over the phone.

Bai Xiaosheng naturally expressed his gratitude.

From Wen Yan, Bai Xiaosheng also learned that Mr. Brown was on his flight back to headquarters, expected to arrive at Ganande’s headquarters by evening.

This time, the situation was serious, with multiple vice-chairmen at headquarters simultaneously signing and issuing the notice, Mr. Brown did not delay and returned promptly.
