Chapter 29 Sudden Death
"What, is Genting now accepting just any Tom, Dick, or Harry?"
Luo Duyang frowned slightly, displeased, and said, "Trying to steal business from me? Get out!"
A hint of doubt flashed across the newcomer's face: "Is Young Master Luo drunk? Don't you even recognize me?"
Luo Duyang blinked blankly. The visitor reminded him, "At Mr. Jun's behest, I handled the drunk driving accident case for Young Master Luo six months ago. Oh, and three months ago, I also damaged an antique vase worth 100 million at Baoge Auction House."
A flicker of panic crossed Luo Duyang's face, before he quickly added, "Oh, oh, I remember now. But this is none of your business..."
Before he could finish speaking, a cold female voice came from outside the door.
"Luo Duyang, have you made enough of a scene?"
A short-haired woman, wearing high heels, walked into the private room.
The woman was very tall, at least 175 cm, wearing a bespoke suit. Her androgynous appearance gave her a very dashing air.
Luo Duyang panicked the moment he saw the other person.
Everyone present immediately recognized the short-haired woman as Luo Tianjun, the eldest daughter of Haicheng's richest man.
The youngest entrepreneur in the entire Federation, at only 25 years old, used his exceptional business acumen and ruthless methods to turn the tide during his father's critical illness, firmly taking control of the behemoth, the Luo Group. In just one year, he became the de facto leader of the Luo Group.
Luo Tianjun glanced at the young man, who nodded knowingly and walked straight toward Cao Yingchong.
"My surname is Gu, and my given name is Wen. You can call me Gu Lu. And this student, what's your name?"
"Cao Yingchong"
"Cao, I've seen everything that happened here." The advisor waved his phone.
Qiao Yi deliberately avoided Yue Wanwan's camera, and the short video clip she edited out had already been forwarded tens of thousands of times in a short period of time. Because of the title "[Shocking! The nephew of Los Angeles' richest man is actually Toothpick Guy]", and Luo Duyang's arrogant attitude, the massive amount of traffic came in just like that.
"First, send the two injured students to the hospital. As for compensation, my suggestion is that there is no need for a medical examination. Student Cao can just state his expectations."
Cao Yingchong was momentarily stunned by the sudden change, but he quickly came to his senses.
"I'm sorry, Attorney Gu, I'm not the one who's injured, so I have no right to make that decision."
The consultant raised an eyebrow, then smiled and said, "One million. If you accept, we can start now..."
Ji Chenyu couldn't help but gasp; this was a huge sum of money that he would never even dare to dream of.
"Two million," Zite interrupted, "but I'm only speaking on my own behalf."
"Joey, take your senior to the hospital for a full medical check-up first."
Given the circumstances at the time, Luo Duyang had not yet succeeded, and Yue Wanwan had not been assaulted, but it was an undeniable fact that she had been drugged. Whether the Yue family would stand their ground or fear the power of Luo City's richest man and thus swallow their anger, Qi Te did not know.
In short, it's always good to have a backup plan.
Qiao Yi naturally understood what he meant, and together with Li Xiaoxu, she helped Yue Wanwan up.
"McDie, meet the three ladies downstairs and take them to the Ocean University Affiliated Hospital, arranging the best wards for them."
Luo Tianjun dialed his assistant's number and gave him some instructions.
"Thank you for your kindness, but thank you, no need."
Qi Te immediately refused. He didn't trust anyone from the Luo family, let alone hand over the three girls to them.
Luo Duyang cursed angrily, "Damn it, you think you're so great?!"
Luo Tianjun raised his right hand and hooked his finger.
A bodyguard stepped forward, and Cao Yingchong and Ji Chenyu quickly stood in front of Qi Te. However, the bodyguard walked up to Luo Duyang instead.
"I'm sorry, Young Master Luo."
*Slap, slap*
Two crisp slaps left Luo Duyang dizzy and nearly knocked to the ground.
Luo Tianjun's gaze passed over Cao and Ji, and looked at Qi Te: "I know what you want to say. Don't worry, I, Luo Tianjun, will not and would never stoop to doing such a thing."
The consultant added, "All the videos about Luo Shao have been taken down. President Jun did this not to cover up his actions, but simply to prevent this scandal from affecting the group's reputation."
Upon hearing this, Cao Yingchong and Ji Chenyu quickly took out their phones to check Qiao Yi's Feixun video account. Sure enough, the video was gone.
"Take him back."
After saying that, Luo Tianjun turned and left.
Several bodyguards stepped forward, and Luo Duyang suddenly sprang up like a madman. Taking advantage of the moment when Cao and Ji were looking down at their phones, he pounced on Qi Te and grabbed him by the collar.
Qi Te instinctively wanted to push Luo Duyang away, but at that moment, his brain seemed to stop working and went completely blank.
Luo Duyang's lips moved slightly, as if he were saying something. Then, clutching his chest, he suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"Ah~~"
Another senior student, Chung Ching, who was also participating in the team building activity, screamed in terror.
.................
Two bodyguards took turns performing CPR and artificial respiration on Luo Duyang to provide first aid.
Everyone present was shocked by this sudden change.
Luo Tianjun, who was originally preparing to leave, watched this scene with a slight frown and a cold gaze.
Luo Duyang is dead!
The two bodyguards, with a helpless yet certain attitude, announced the result.
Not long ago, the arrogant and domineering young master of a wealthy family was lying on the expensive pure wool carpet in the home theater. His face was whiter than the wall, his lips were bluish-purple, his eyes were slightly bulging, and his pupils were unfocused. He was lifeless.
Luo Tianjun looked at Qi Te suspiciously: "What did you do to him?"
"I didn't do anything."
Qi Te told the truth, but he was actually quite flustered inside.
The college crisis and the subway incident still have a time limit and room for maneuver.
By reviewing and analyzing all the details, you can create more room for maneuver.
Luo Duyang is the nephew of the richest man. Even if he deserves to die, if I am involved in his death in any way, I could be doomed.
The five people who participated in the event and the waiter were so shocked by Luo Duyang's sudden death that they almost lost their minds. However, after hearing Luo Tianjun's question, they immediately cast strange glances at Qi Te.
"It was clearly Luo Duyang who rushed up to hit Tezi, and Tezi didn't even fight back. You can't frame someone like that, Tezi was even injured!"
Ji Chenyu nervously shielded Qi Te behind him, fearing that the other party might give an order to send five bodyguards to snatch him away.
Cao Yingchong looked at Luo Tianjun: "Miss Luo, you should have seen it yourself at the time, my classmate didn't do anything."
"Luo Duyang may have a heart condition, or a latent cardiovascular disease. The speed he just unleashed was incredibly fast, so fast that even I, a speed-type ability user, couldn't stop him in time."
"Excessive exercise puts a tremendous strain on the heart. In addition, Loduyan had also taken sildenafil. The combination of these factors ultimately led to sudden cardiac death."
"Sildenafil?" Attorney Gu frowned slightly, then nodded and said, "Student Cao is very professional!"
"We are from the Department of Life Engineering, School of Biology."
The implication is that pathology and pharmacology are already part of the scope of their studies.
Luo Tianjun ignored Cao Yingchong's explanation and continued looking at Qi Te: "What is your special ability?"
"Visual Perception System"
"Be more specific."
As expected of the entrepreneur jokingly referred to as the "female demon" by netizens, Luo Tianjun's tone was calm to the point of being indifferent, yet it was full of an undeniable sense of pressure.
Qi Te casually pointed to a bodyguard: "He has a gun under his arm, a tactical knife strapped to his left leg, and an alloy toe bone implanted in his right foot."
The bodyguard almost instinctively yelled "Holy shit!" before quickly shutting his mouth.
His reaction was enough to prove that what Zit said was true.
Luo Tianjun nodded slightly, turned around and walked out of the private room.
The consultant closed the door, made a phone call, and then said to everyone, "Please wait here and cooperate with the investigation."
"Huh?" Zhong Jing exclaimed in surprise, "I never even touched Young Master Luo, his death has nothing to do with me..."
Tong Chi immediately chimed in, "Yes, Attorney Gu. Besides, we're all Young Master Luo's friends, how could we possibly harm him?"
"Yes, it has nothing to do with us, let us go first."
Peng Jiajun pointed at Qi Te: "This kid was the one who stole Luo Shao's woman. It must have been him. We're Luo Shao's best friends, we would never harm him!"
"You son of a bitch..." Ji Chenyu was the first to object and wanted to retort, but Cao Yingchong stopped him in time.
The consultant lowered his head slightly, shook his head, and chuckled, "Oh, really? Then why didn't you feel any grief when Young Master Luo died? Instead, why were you in such a hurry to get away?"
The group's expressions froze, and they immediately turned their heads away.
"Quiet."
The legal advisor raised his hand to his lips, gesturing for silence, and then paced back and forth in the private room as if looking for something.
About fifteen minutes later, the consultant stopped his strange behavior, glanced at his watch, and said, "Open the door."
The waiter immediately stepped forward to open the door.
A tall, slender man walked into the private room with a smile on his face.
The advisor stepped forward and shook hands with him, then introduced him to everyone: "This is Sherlock, the head of the Major Crimes Unit of the Investigation Bureau."
