"Mr. Castro, I've gone over these financial records multiple times, and they all point to one thing: Mr. Lagman's involvement in the corruption scandal," Detective Cruz exclaimed, her voice tinged with disappointment.

I nodded solemnly, masking my inner satisfaction. "I understand, Detective. The evidence is damning, but we have to follow where it leads."

Detective Cruz sighed, running a hand through her hair. "I just can't believe it. Lagman seemed like such an upstanding leader, but these records paint a different picture."

"It's often the ones you least expect," I remarked, keeping my tone neutral.

As we continued our investigation, piecing together the puzzle of corruption, Detective Cruz's determination only seemed to grow.
