Stunned, Takagi frowned and pondered for a few seconds, before he shook his head. "Detective Luke, Mr. Weyland can't have anything to do with this. He … "
Looking at Luke and recalling the important information that the young man had just told him, he said in an even lower voice, "Mr. Weyland's family has been a member of parliament for many years, and has always been a core member of the Elephant Party."
Luke was enlightened.
Nobody would believe that a bigshot from such a family would be involved in a terrorist attack.
They weren't ordinary youngsters who would be easily fooled by hotheads.
They had been raised to become central figures of power in America, and it was more likely that they would be fooled by terrorists.
Thinking quickly, Luke nodded. "Tell him to hurry up. I'll escort you out."
Takagi, however, smiled bitterly. "Well … there's a small problem."
Luke asked, "What problem? Is this Mr. Weyland hard to talk to? "
Takagi said in the same low voice, "Mr. Weyland was in the bathroom just now, when the toilet exploded and a lot of 'dirty water' gushed out. He's probably cleaning up now. I'm afraid he'll … "
Luke subconsciously looked in the direction from which he had just come in.
He had thrown away the two bags of explosives and come in through the back door. All the manhole covers in the back of the building had been blown off, and the stench was equally overwhelming.
Could it be that Chairman Weyland's "feces falling from the sky" and "feces pouring down on his head" had something to do with him?
Thinking that, Luke grew solemn and nodded quickly. "Okay, I'll make the arrangements. I'll call you later. I'll escort you out."
After that, he slipped away.
Recalling the smell he had smelled in the back of the building, he didn't dare think about Chairman Weyland's current situation.
That would only make him nauseous and nauseous.
He went to the front and found Selina. He told her about Takagi and Weyland.
Selina wasn't too concerned about Takagi, even though the villa she lived in was a gift from him. She was more curious about something else. "Will Chairman Weyland give you any trouble?"
Luke said bitterly, "I don't think so …?"
He didn't sound very confident when he said that.
After all, any ordinary person would go crazy if they were to encounter a situation like "Feces from the Sky" + "Sh * t on the head"!
Selina didn't know what to do. She could only pat his shoulder and say, "Pray. I'll help you contact the police officers at the underground garage's exit. They'll let you through later. "
As the two of them were talking, a group of people came out of the elevator.
Seeing Luke and Selina talking in low voices not far away, the man in the middle exclaimed in surprise and said something to the fat security guard next to him.
The fat security guard walked over. "Detectives, Mr. Stark would like to ask you something."
Luke smiled. "Supervisor Happy, we meet again."
Happy twitched his face and gave a fake smile. He gestured for the two of them to hurry up and "please".
Luke and Selina walked over and greeted the man in a formal manner. "Mr. Stark, hello."
Of course, the man was Tony Stark.
Looking at the two of them, he waved to the security guards on the side, and the security guards spread out a little, blocking the view from other places.
Finally, he said, "Thank you for everything you've done today."
Luke and Selina didn't think much of it, and replied casually, "It's what we should do."
Tony Stark, however, raised his hand to stop them from talking. "Even if someone blew up the entire sewage system in the building and forced half the bathrooms in the building to close their doors, I still have to thank you."
Luke and Selina: "…"
Tony Stark, however, simply said, "I'll send someone to take care of everything that happened today. You won't have any trouble. That's all."
As he spoke, he stepped forward, and the security guards surrounded him again.
Stark took two steps, but stopped again. Without turning back, he asked, "Do you need a reward? Like … half a million? "
Luke chuckled. "No need. I was ordered to be a security guard here, and the police paid me a lot of money. "
Tony Stark couldn't help but look back at him for a moment, before he nodded. "It seems that I didn't waste my money last time."
After that, he turned around and left.
Luke and Selina looked at each other and chuckled.
It was truly rare for this foul-mouthed tycoon to say something so complimentary.
It wasn't that Tony Stark had changed, but that if Luke and Selina hadn't taken action today, there really might have been a huge problem.
Just now, Tony had already used his personal artificial intelligence program to roughly estimate the power of the two packs of bombs.
If the criminals were skilled in explosives, they could've scattered the bombs at suitable locations at the bottom of the building and activated them, and the building might've collapsed.
That was thanks to Stark Industries' meticulous construction.
If it were a regular building, the two bags of bombs would've been enough to demolish it.
Tony Stark himself was on the roof. If the building collapsed, even the security guards wouldn't be able to save him.
Secondly, there were more than two thousand people in the building just now. If the building had collapsed, at least half of them would've died.
For example, Takagi and the chairman of Weyland Corporation were in the reception room on the first floor. There were also a lot of important guests on the other floors.
If even half of the guests died, Stark Industries wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility.
It was also for this reason that Tony Stark had stopped and spoken to Luke and Selina.
It was also for this reason that he had said that the joke he had spent so much money on back then had been worth it.
Luke and Selina watched the tycoon leave the building and get into a Rolls-Royce Phantom, which was already parked at the entrance, before they went back to work.
A compliment from the tycoon? That wouldn't be enough to make a living, and it wouldn't help them maintain order.
Twenty minutes later, Luke got into Takagi's car with a mask on. There was another old man in the car.
Looking at Luke's mask, the old man couldn't help but wrinkle his nose. For some reason, he still felt that there was a certain smell on him.
His face, which wasn't looking good in the first place, turned a little green. "This is?"
Takagi said in a low voice, "Detective Luke Coulson, the one I told you about earlier."
Luke took off his mask and smiled at the old man. "Mr. Weyland, hello. Due to certain reasons, I need to cover my face right now. Please don't mind. "
Weyland simply nodded and didn't say anything, but he was secretly suspicious. You're just a minor detective. Why do you need to cover your face?
At that moment, the car reached the exit, where several police officers were already waiting. Luke rolled down the window, handed over his badge, and showed his face again.
The police officer glanced at him and then at Takagi and Weyland in the car, before he immediately nodded and said, "That's enough."
