Becoming the Richest Man Alive

The size of the truck pulling up at the entrance of the police station elicited the attention of the officers on duty. Casper had entered the police station for less than a minute when he emerged again, accompanied by a swarm of policemen. Casper sat down obediently, agreeing to have his statement taken down by the police officers.

“This was entirely an accident. I’ve actually recorded everything. You can take a look at this,” Casper said, retrieving the camera he had kept hidden on his body. The entire incident had indeed been captured on tape from start to end.

When the policeman had verified Casper’s tale, he looked up at Casper with a gaze of bewilderment and respect.

The policeman found it rather hard to believe that this fellow sitting cooperatively before him could have single-handedly subdued the thugs, even managing to defeat them in a battle of one against four.

Casper and Stallion were released afterward, with Stallion having received credit for his role in the operation.

It was only after the investigation had concluded that Casper discovered the thugs belonged to a criminal organization that had committed numerous crimes. The criminals that Casper had handed over to the police would be the means by which the law could penetrate the organization and eventually destroy it.

As it was part of the necessary evidence needed to convict the organization and its members, Casper reluctantly left his pinhole camera and its accompanying footage with the policemen.

His plans, however, had been thoroughly shattered. Casper could only publish the recordings when the police concluded their operations.

Casper could only comfort himself with the fact that he had done a good deed. He would have to formulate another plan with regards to Horington food street.

“We’ve managed to uncover what was going on at Horington food street. Now we just need to find another way to draw the public’s attention to it,” Casper said, slightly vexed. He turned to look at Elena hopefully.

Elena, however, was equally clueless. She, too, furrowed her brow with indecision. If only we could have stuck to the original plan! Elena thought mournfully.
