"A police officer?"
Xiao Luo laughed out loud as if he had heard a funny joke. He then put down his coffee and said playfully, "Do you know why I helped Lo Fong in this lawsuit?"
Gu Qianlin blinked and asked, "Why?"
"Because I'm Lo Fong's boss now."
Xiao Luo answered seriously. Gu Qianlin was stunned. He closed his laptop and put it in his bag. He got up and walked out of the cafe. With such a police officer around, he lost interest in drinking coffee.
Gu Qianlin was stunned in her seat. She couldn't accept the fact that Xiao Luo was Lo Fong's boss. However, she was finally relieved. Xiao Luo was doing business. This was definitely a good thing for police officers. She couldn't imagine how troublesome it would be if Xiao Luo was a criminal.
However, she wouldn't give up on the investigation of the "September 12" incident. Xiao Luo was very suspicious. No matter who it was, they would be punished by the law if they broke the law!
…
…
Chen Jianbai was convicted of defamation and sentenced to one year in prison and a fine of 20,000 yuan. Fang Changlei of Taste Buds was taken away by the Anti-Monopoly and Anti-Unfair Competition Law Enforcement Bureau for investigation. The evidence was conclusive and he would face a huge amount of compensation.
After a public trial, Lo Fong's reputation was restored. Not only did the lost customers return, but there was also a large influx of new customers. On the other hand, Taste Buds' reputation was at its lowest point. They were despised and insulted by the public. For a time, the pastry and bread industry in Jiangcheng had undergone earth-shaking changes.
After the celebratory banquet, Xiao Luo and Zhang Dashan returned to their residence.
Feng Wuhen and the other four brought a dozen beers and barbecue. They didn't plan to return to the factory dormitory today. They were determined to squeeze in Xiao Luo's one-bedroom living room.
Anyway, it was fine to let them squeeze in the hall. The bedroom would never be given out, so Xiao Luo naturally had no objections.
"Damn, that was awesome. Old Xiao, you have to call me if there's anything like that in the future!"
Zhang Dashan was still reminiscing about the process of him representing Luo's Workshop. The more he thought about it, the more excited and comfortable he felt. He wanted more.
Xiao Luo rolled her eyes at him. "Didn't you say you were nervous?"
"Nervous my ass!"
Zhang Dashan handed his mobile phone to Xiao Luo. "Look, my Weibo account has gained 500,000 followers, and it's still going up. The classic quotes I said in court are still circulating on the Internet. I can be considered a celebrity now."
"Keep showing off." Xiao Luo raised his eyebrows.
"Hehe … I feel like my spring is coming. Many female fans on Weibo are asking for my contact information. I can play with one a day without repeating." Zhang Dashan laughed.
Xiao Luo did not respond to his nonsense.
To be honest, this trial was all thanks to Zhang Dashan. He had a mouth that could infuriate people, and Xiao Luo's words were more rational. He basically couldn't use profanities. The two of them could be said to have combined during the trial, forming a representative image with their unique characteristics.
"By the way, has Gao Qingfeng's job been arranged?" Xiao Luo suddenly asked.
"Of course it has been arranged. The head of the finance department donated a sum of money to her in the name of the company. In order to prevent her son and daughter-in-law from snatching it away, the money has been entrusted to a lawyer. It will be paid to her at the beginning of every month in the form of an allowance. It will ensure that she has enough to eat and wear. In addition, a lawyer has been hired to represent her. As for the final outcome between her son and daughter-in-law, I'm not sure."
"Okay, that's good."
Xiao Luo nodded. He would never treat anyone who had helped him unfairly.
"What about Zhang Donghai?"
"You'll have to ask Brother Feng about that."
Zhang Dashan waved at Feng Wuhen, who was eating barbecue at the door, and shouted, "Brother Feng, come over for a moment. Old Xiao wants to ask you about Zhang Donghai."
"Okay!"
Feng Wuhen put down the barbecue skewers and ran over like a gust of wind. He wiped the oil from his mouth and reported to Xiao Luo, "According to Brother Xiao's instructions, we sent Zhang Haidong and his family to the airport. We only left after we saw them board the plane."
"Did you notice anyone suspicious following you along the way?" Xiao Luo asked again.
Feng Wuhen shook his head. "No, Xiao Wu and the rest have been secretly observing. They didn't notice anyone suspicious."
"Got it. Go ahead."
"Brother Xiao, let's eat together. We bought too much."
"Damn, it's very shameful to waste food. Come, let me help you solve it."
Zhang Dashan rolled up his sleeves and was ready to go all out. He put his arm around Feng Wuhen's shoulder and walked over to eat. They drank, ate, and bragged. The huge top floor was filled with their boorish laughter and shouting.
Xiao Luo took a deep breath and turned around. He faced the outside of the building and stood against the wind. In the suburbs of Jiangcheng, the night was extremely quiet.
Other than Lo Fong's complete victory, he had also gained a lot. The system's points had skyrocketed by 200,000 points. It was all because of the results of the trial. He was indirectly affected by the system's automatic identification and collection. Because the trial was broadcasted live on various major platforms, it affected a large number of people. That was why he had 200,000 points.
He was much closer to 500,000 points for the life-prolonging ability!
In addition, the system had unlocked a high-level store. Xiao Luo was surprised to find that there were various martial arts skills in the high-level store, such as Yi Jin Jing, Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Wave-like Subtle Steps, and so on. The points required were much more than the Mercenary King's Constitution. If he wanted to exchange for Yi Jin Jing, he would need to spend up to 100,000 points.
"System, what's going on?" Xiao Luo was puzzled.
"Ding! The Mercenary King's Constitution changes the external conditions of the body, while Yi Jin Jing is a high-level martial arts skill that increases internal strength. Once exchanged, the host will have extraordinary internal strength. Whether it's strength, speed, or endurance, they will all be permanently improved."
"They both increase one's strength, but one focuses on external strength and the other on internal strength?"
"Ding! Correct!"
"Why does the Mercenary King's Constitution only cost 1,000 points, but Yi Jin Jing costs 100,000 points?"
This was what Xiao Luo couldn't figure out the most. The difference between 1,000 and 100,000 points was too big. According to the principle of 'quality goods are expensive', wouldn't it mean that Yi Jin Jing was much stronger than the Mercenary King's Constitution?
"Ding! A hundred Mercenary King's Constitution can't beat a master of Yi Jin Jing!" The system's emotionless voice sounded in his mind.
Xiao Luo sucked in a breath of cold air. He thought that the Mercenary King's Constitution was already very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be even more powerful. Since the system had Yi Jin Jing, did it mean that there was a group of martial arts practitioners in this world? A martial arts world?
"It seems that this world is quite interesting!"
