Feng Xing and Xie Yuansheng were offered chairs in front of a large screen. The senior IT manager explained to them how the money was transferred. Feng Xinying was listening to the entire thing very attentively, while Xie Yuansheng was only interested in checking his emails and text messages on his phone. 

"Madam, the money traveled through five different countries before being deposited in his account," said the IT manager.

"What do you mean?" she asked as inquisitive as a child.

"Basically in these types of transactions the money is never deposited directly into the accounts, otherwise it can be easily detected as to who deposited the money. Hence the money is channelized through various places. In this case the money was first deposited in an intermediary bank. The person in whose account the money was deposited took a percentage of it. Then he withdrew the cash and traveled to a different city to deposit the money in a different bank account. 

This money was now transferred to a different country's bank. This process was followed until the money was actually deposited in the beneficiary account. The problem with this kind of transaction is that you can figure out the money trail that has left online footprint, but you cannot figure out the time when that trail was broken. However, we have been able to figure that too."

The senior IT manager was explaining all this through the animation on the large screen in front of them. 

Feng Xinying felt as though her chest had tightened. "Who have you been able to trace all this to?" she asked as though she was ready to go and punch that woman on her face right now. 

Xie Yuansheng looked at his IT guy coldly. 

"Madam, it is surprising that the trail ended at Wu Bosun's secretary," replied the senior guy with his head low.

"What?" Feng Xinying stood up from her chair.

"Yes ma'am…"

She looked at Xie Yuansheng in the most confused manner. "But- but the hacker said that it was a woman!" she asked Xie Yuansheng. 

Xie Yuansheng clasped his hands and brought his face to rest on them. 

"Sir, the IP address has been detected and it belongs to none other than his secretary," said the IT manager confidently. 

"Xie Yuansheng this doesn't make sense. His secretary was very enthusiastic about the deal. Also it is woman because hacker always heard a woman's voice," said Feng Xinying shocked at the revelation. 

"Madam, sometimes people use voice modulation software, so that can also be a possibility. The secretary had planned this all out very nicely before executing," answered the IT guy. 

"Or, he is just a p.a.w.n in this game," said Xie Yuansheng. 

The IT guy became quiet. He was in no mood to answer the CEO directly. He and his team had spent sleepless nights from the past two days to uncover this case. He was angry that the case should have gone to the police, but instead they were solving it. However, he also knew that they could uncover the case quicker than the police. 

"Hack the computer of Wu Bosun's secretary and lock it. We are going there now," said Xie Yuansheng and got up from his chair.
