   This was originally a suspenseful, thrilling novel titled: "After Being Fired from the Big Four, I Sent a Billionaire to Prison by Auditing Accounts." Have you ever wondered where the money went when people swindled your parents' retirement savings? This book tells you the answer. The protagonist, Chen Yan, a former Big Four auditor, was framed and fired for refusing to sign a false report, resulting in an industry-wide blacklist. Three years later, a late-night phone call brings him back to the battlefield—in Futian, Shenzhen, a cross-border e-commerce boss "commits suicide," yet his export figures have surged by 300%. He uncovers a financial transaction that the police couldn't trace in just twenty minutes. This isn't a crime novel; it's about using an auditor's "data eye" to see through all financial lies. Already at 120,000 words, the protagonist's career is fully developed, there's no romance involved, and the trio (auditor + policewoman + intern assistant) form a pure camaraderie. Every three chapters feature a small thrill, and each volume houses a major case—cross-border money laundering, scams targeting the elderly, the cryptocurrency black market, multi-billion dollar supply chain fraud, influencer tax evasion, venture capital scams, and murders committed through trusts in wealthy families… You think you're reading a novel, but you're actually learning about fraud prevention. Keywords: urban, suspense, workplace, thrilling, no female lead
