“First, I investigated Mr. Langdon’s assets and income sources,” Axel said, pulling out a stack of documents and placing them on the table.

He explained firmly, “His spending far exceeds his salary. He owns 18 luxury homes, dozens of high-end cars, and a private collection of gold, antiques, and famous paintings.

“Altogether, his assets are worth tens of billions. Given his salary, it would take him several thousand years of saving every penny to afford that. So I have to ask-where did all this money come from?”
