The rain, which had started out light in the early morning hours, had gotten heavier. The sky, too, had grown darker.
The few people out on the streets were eager to get out of the rain and, therefore, did not stop to look about. No one paid any attention to the unusual number of cars parked on the street.
The employees of Fengting Home Improvement Company had just arrived at their building for yet another day of work.
Suddenly, a troop of law enforcers barged in waving a search warrant. Without wasting a moment, they confiscated every single item they could find in the office.
By the time they were done, the office of the company's CEO, Feng Guodong, was as barren as a cave. Nothing had been spared from the inspection, not even the trash can.
