Chapter 470 What is the real identity of the BOSS?
"So that's it."
When Spiatus heard Jing Baiye's words, he seemed to have remembered something and showed a thoughtful expression.
"I almost forgot that you have more than once sought revenge for important people being hurt, and your methods have always been so desperate and fierce... But you have to be careful and don't get involved with yourself."
"I am measured."
Jing Baiye didn't know why he reminded him of this. He looked at the unfinished pudding in front of him and responded casually.
This dessert wasn't bad, but it didn't taste to his liking. It didn't have his favorite sweetness at all.
He wants to eat croissants and apple pie.
Before departure, Jing Baiye did not install a camera around Toru Amuro - because he knew that no matter which personality he was, he would hate others using such things on him - he put a medical bracelet on him. Once his physical condition was abnormal,
His phone will be notified immediately.
There is no movement on his mobile phone now. Amuro...should be fine?
For some reason, Jing Baiye suddenly felt uneasy.
Spiatus did not mention the FBI again: "What are you going to do with Chairman Sindora?"
"Thomas is now under my...well, some kind of control." Jing Baiye stopped looking at Pudding. "I don't want to kill him. After all, I'm not in the United States. I need someone to manage the Sindora Group on my behalf."
"And he is not in good health. He has terminal cancer and will die in a few years. There is no need to do it himself."
For the FBI agents, he made the Black Vest appear again. After all, it is a disposable item that will be consumed immediately, and there is no need to control it too finely; while for the senior executives of the Sindora Group who need long-term control, he used his new skills [
Devil's Contract].
After he used this skill for the first time, a new group was added to the communication section of the system - Contractors.
The contractor group can actually be called the slave group. Their panels are different from those of relatives, friends, acquaintances or passers-by, and record all their information from birth to the present.
As small as the score of a certain test in elementary school, as big as the death of an immediate family member, a huge success in career, etc., everything will be clearly displayed on it, so that he can fully understand this person.
If a contractor is terminally ill, the system can also calculate how many more years he can live and display his remaining lifespan on it.
[Devil Contract] can transfer terminal diseases away, but the more serious the transferred disease, the more people will be implicated in becoming slaves because of blood relationships. Jing Baiye’s original intention is to control the Sindora Group, not to enjoy the control and enslavement of a bunch of people.
They felt pleasure, so when he made the contract, it was enough to remove some trivial ailments from their bodies and make them slaves themselves.
"Did he make a will?" Spiatus asked again.
"No." Jing Baiye shook his head, "There's no need to be in such a hurry."
"It is necessary. Inheritance here in the United States is very troublesome. Every time a wealthy person dies, the inheritance they leave behind will attract great attention from the IRS (U.S. Internal Revenue Service). You must prepare him early."
Spiatus's face and tone were very subtle.
It's not the anxiety and vigilance of encountering an enemy, but more like... the helplessness of seeing a group of cockroaches that you can't drive away and kill, and if you really kill them, more cockroaches will swarm out.
But after hearing IRS, Jing Baiye understood where this helplessness came from.
He once heard Belmode talk about the power of the IRS. This department has more law enforcement power than the CIA or FBI, and its equipment and weapons are more advanced.
They had a famous case. In the last century, there was a large gang in the United States, and its leader was Al Capone, known as the "King of Chicago." The government asked the FBI to solve it, but after several years, nothing was found and no one could be arrested.
evidence.
The person who finally sent the gang leader to trial was not the police, let alone the FBI, but an IRS auditor.
As an undercover agent, his purpose of infiltrating was not to collect evidence of these people's crimes such as kidnapping, extortion, and murder, but to check the accounts.
——The IRS didn't care about Capone's crimes. They were all focused on the fact that his income and the taxes he paid didn't seem to match up, so they sent undercover agents to find the real account books. In the end, they successfully charged him with tax evasion, along with many of his subordinates.
Sent in.
Thinking of this, Jing Baiye looked at Spiatus again.
Belmode said that from the first leader to Spiatus, from the Karasuma Group branch to the organization, they have always paid taxes well in the United States and have never paid a penny less. This is absolute.
Law-abiding citizens.
Therefore, although there are many undercover agents in the organization, coming from different countries and different departments, there are no undercover accounting agents from the IRS who collect stamps.
"You have a flight tomorrow afternoon, right? Then you can deal with this matter in the morning and ask him to set up a charity. American rich people are very good at this. If you mention it to him, he will know how to do it."
The tax system is harsh, but unfortunately there are policies and countermeasures. Only citizens with no money and power have to pay taxes honestly all the time. Rich people have many ways to avoid taxes.
For example, setting up a charitable foundation is a good way to reasonably avoid taxes.
Thomas Sindora is a single man with no biological children or adopted children. In addition, he has been taking anti-cancer drugs since he got sick. His health is still good, so he has not considered the issue of inheritance for the time being.
After receiving the reminder, Jing Baiye nodded: "I understand, I'll go tomorrow morning."
Spiatus asked him to take action against the Sindora Group, but he did not let him take action against these people's personal assets. Moreover, this was an inheritance, and he was not so greedy for money that he would not let it go.
After planning her trip for tomorrow morning, Jing Baiye thought about what she saw when she went to Thomas' house.
"By the way, boss, I want to ask you something."
"What's up?"
"The drugs developed by Karasuma Group..." He paused, "Are those life-saving anti-cancer drugs always so cheap?"
After the FBI mass suicide case, he went to Thomas's villa to return Jack the Ripper's dagger - it was given to him after he controlled Thomas, saying it was something from his ancestors. Jing Baiye got it and used it, and found out the sharpness
It's better to give it back to him than an ordinary fruit knife.
In the living room, he saw several boxes of uneaten pills on the table, with the crow logo of the Karasuma Group on the pill boxes.
Originally, Jing Baiye had never cared about what drugs Karasuma Group had developed or what the prices of those drugs were. He seemed to be weak, but in fact he rarely got sick. He had never paid attention to these before.
Out of rare curiosity, he went to check it out, and the results he found surprised him.
——Since fourteen years ago, all anti-cancer drugs or other life-saving drugs launched by Karasuma Group have been sold at extremely low prices that even low-income households can afford.
Moreover, the drug is very effective. Most patients with advanced cancer can live 5-10 years longer without any other side effects.
There are many doubts about Karasuma Group on the Internet. Some accuse him of engaging in malicious competition, some question his research and development process, and some speculate that he wants to seize the drug market and raise prices after achieving a monopoly...
Not only them, Jing Baiye was also curious.
"Can we make more money by raising the price of effective life-saving drugs?"
A week ago in the game, he and his teacher heard someone say something similar at the door of the pharmacy - only by raising the price of life-saving drugs can you make money. After all, who would have trouble with their own life?
Spiatus laughed softly.
"Many people have said this...but someone said to me that even if you want to make money, you should not make money from other people's lives."
The familiar words made Jing Baiye open his eyes suddenly.
"...boss."
The man sitting in front of him raised his head.
Under the bright light, Jing Baiye saw those crimson eyes staring at him unblinkingly.
They were sitting there facing each other. Their faces, body shapes and clothes were completely different, but it was as if they were looking into a mirror - what was reflected on the opposite side was an extremely familiar figure.
"What's wrong?" Spiatus laughed.
Jing Baiye looked at him and met a pair of eyes that were almost identical to his. The question that had been in his mind for a long time finally blurted out.
"——Are you also a 'Jing Baiye'?"
