Chapter 907: Escape
There were more than 300 Green Fresh supermarkets across the country. However, there were 12 supermarkets that were involved in the deaths.
Among these 12 supermarkets, there was no such accident in the Beijing supermarket. So the Beijing police department did not participate in the investigation.
However, on this day, someone directly came to the Beijing Police Department to surrender.
“What did you say? You said that the Green Fresh Supermarket poisoning incident was planned by you and your boss?” The police officer was very shocked after hearing Walter’s confession. Then, the police officer immediately asked, “Why did you do this? And who is your boss?”
Walter’s two eyes were bloodshot, and his face was haggard. It was clear that he hadn’t rested well for a period of time. Walter was panicky. He looked around and calmed down slightly.
Walter said, “I… I am the assistant to the President of Royal Forest!”
When the police officer heard that, he frowned slightly and said, “Royal Forest?” Although they did not participate in the investigation of Green Fresh, they had heard about it. This was a big case.
They knew that Royal Forest was the leader in the international agricultural products industry. In China, they were in competition with Green Fresh.
Since they were competitors, it was natural to expect some fights between them. However, Royal Forest was crazy to actually kill people to frame Green Fresh.
If Walter were telling the truth, those involved directly would be arrested, Royal Forest would also need to pay huge amounts of compensation to the families of the victims as well as to the Green Fresh Group. Then they would be kicked out of China.
The police officer asked coldly, “Why did you poison so many people?”
Walter said truthfully, “Royal Forest and Green Fresh are in competition. Or rather, Green Fresh is beating Royal Forest in China.
“Green Fresh supermarkets are all over the country, directly stealing more than 80% of Royal Forest’s customers. This has caused a huge loss to Royal Forest. If this continues, Royal Forest will lose the Chinese market. This is too big of a market to lose. The Chinese market takes up 20 percent of our annual sales. If we were to directly withdraw from China, it would be a huge loss for Royal Forest’s head office. This will be on the head of the China branch president, Peter!”
The police officer immediately asked sharply, “So, you’re saying that you were acting under the order of Peter?”
Walter said, “Yes!”
Then, the police officer interrogated Walter.
At Royal Forest’s president’s office, a man in a black suit rushed to Peter’s office in a panic.
“Boss, something bad has happened!” He shouted directly.
When Peter heard this, he said unhappily, “Don’t jinx it. I’m doing very well these days.” The closures of the Green Fresh supermarkets caused the business of Royal Forest to pick up. Therefore, he didn’t want people to rain on his parade.
The subordinate gasped, “Boss, we’ve got the news that Walter has gone to the police station and turned himself in!”
Peter was in a daze and didn’t react for a moment.
“What did you say?” He asked.
The subordinate said eagerly, “It’s Walter, your assistant!”
“Walter?!”
Peter’s expression was first one of surprise, and then it became unusually shocked. “How is this possible? Why did Walter suddenly turn himself in?”
He was really shocked and angry, and could not help but feel a wave of panic.
The subordinate shook his head, “I don’t know. When Walter ran away like crazy from your office, we followed your instructions and sent people to supervise him. We notice that Walter appears to have lost it. Not only did he scream crazily at home every day, but he also mumbled to the air.
“We thought that Walter might have gone crazy. I was about to report this to you, but the person monitoring Walter made a mistake, and Walter escaped. He ran directly to the police station. It took me a lot of effort to find out that… Walter has turned himself in!”
When Peter heard that, his pupils constricted, and his expression was unusually shocked.
He said loudly and fearfully, “He’s crazy. He’s really crazy!”
He really didn’t expect that a cup, some documents, and an air-conditioner could actually scare him crazy. He had never thought that Walter would be so timid.
He was very regretful that he had involved Walter involved in this matter.
“Bastard!” Peter hit the desk with a heavy fist.
The subordinate asked worriedly, “Boss, what should we do now? If Walter turns himself in, the Chinese police will soon find out about everything.” At this point, he paused and said anxiously, “Boss, let’s leave now. Otherwise, we might not be able to leave later.”
When Peter heard this, he said decisively, “Immediately book the tickets. The earlier the flight, the better!”
He had literally killed dozens of people. The Chinese police department would definitely not let them off.
Peter wanted the headquarter to mobilize their helicopter to fetch him. However, the helicopters couldn’t fly into China without a permit. Therefore, the only way for him to escape was by an international flight.
As long as he left China quickly and returned to country F, even if he had killed hundreds of people in China, China would not be able to do anything to him.
The subordinate immediately did as he was told.
After the subordinate left, Peter was anxious. He picked up the phone and wanted to call the head office. However, he thought about it and put down the phone again. Not long after, he seemed to have made a certain decision.
After that, he left the company in a hurry and drove directly in the direction of his villa.
After he returned to his room, he ignored the surprise of the servants and quickly packed up some important things. After he got these things, he quickly left.
However, when he walked out of the villa’s door, a row of police officers was already waiting in front of his door.
