Two cars with flashing sirens drove past behind them.
Shajay dared not reply.
At 10: 20 am, Lu Sheng left the Sha Group's headquarters and headed to another district in Platinum City.
Shajay turned to look at Lu Sheng.
Standing before the villa's door, Lu Sheng watched as Shajay took out his key and opened the door.
Lu Sheng walked into the street. Puddles of dirty water and dried black blood could be seen everywhere on the ground.
Behind the door was a huge office with floor-to-ceiling windows.
Shajay led Lu Sheng inside. They passed through a corridor and turned into a meeting room that looked like a concert hall. The two of them soon arrived before a red wooden door.
"You can only choose to trust me now." Lu Sheng shrugged. He did not answer.
Shajay dared not speak.
If Shajay had not seen Lu Sheng retract his hand from the back of Uncle Hua's head, he would have thought so.
"Hello, Uncle Hua," Shajay greeted obediently.
"Young man, what's your objective?" Sha Luo Na was indeed a formidable character. He was a ruthless character who had climbed his way up through countless business wars. He instantly analyzed the situation. The young man was able to enter the door under the protection of Uncle Hua, whom he was so proud of. It was clear that the young man's strength was not to be underestimated.
The elevator door opened slowly. On the fifteenth floor, there were male and female employees who were walking around hurriedly.
"They're going to be busy tonight," Lu Sheng said with a smile as he glanced at the car lights.
"Bam."
Suddenly, there was a soft sound behind him. He turned to look. Uncle Hua was leaning against the wall. His hat was pulled down over his eyes. He was motionless. He seemed to be asleep.
"Little Jie, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to come to the headquarters only after the exam? "
"Who are you?!" The old man stood up abruptly. He turned to look at Lu Sheng. His gaze was as sharp as a hawk's before it hunted its prey.
"Then I'll give your father a call right now and let him know that you're in my hands. How do you feel?" Lu Sheng said casually.
"Let's go to the room first."
"Of course I understand. Otherwise, I wouldn't have cooperated with Elder Sha." Lu Sheng smiled. "As for what you can get, it depends on what you want."
Shajay immediately fell silent. He was no fool. If he was so easily tricked, he would not have become the class monitor of the Platinum Academy.
Lu Sheng smiled. "It's okay. I'll wait for you in the hallway."
After the three of them changed their clothes, Lu Sheng found an excuse and asked Esha to be brought out by the maidservant to rest in another room in the villa. Meanwhile, he and Shajay entered the bar room.
"Let's go. It's time to go to the next stop." Lu Sheng's arrangement didn't end with a mere police station.
The door to the bar was closed and locked.
When the old man heard the voice, he slowly retracted his fingers that were gently massaging his temples.
…
When they finished work that night and headed to the Sha Family's residence, the entire Platinum City was filled with the piercing sound of police sirens.
Standing in the elevator, the two of them were speechless for a while.
After a good night's rest, Shajay applied for leave for Lu Sheng. The two of them ignored the final exam and went straight to the headquarters of the Sha Group.
"What do you want, Jorin?!" Shajay was expressionless, but his heart was racing. He was afraid.
"Yes, Young Master. Also, the Platinum Academy's academic affairs office has called. It seems like they have something important to ask you, Young Master," the maidservant reminded him.
Shajay's expression was grim.
"I didn't kill him. Let's go." Lu Sheng smiled at him.
"I don't have much authority in the company."
He had caused such a huge commotion in just one day. He was afraid that if he stayed with this person any longer, the entire Sha Group might be dragged into the mess.
Shajay nodded. He was even more wary of Lu Sheng now. He knew about Uncle Hua's abilities. He was once ranked 21st in the federation's combat tournament.
A middle-aged man wearing a red round hat stood guard at the door. He had a holster on his waist. He wore a brown, tight-fitting leather vest. He was leaning against the door as he smoked lazily.
"He must be too tired. He's resting with his eyes closed."
"I got it." Shajay knew that it must be about the Iron Screen cadre who died in his room. However, even if the matter was related to him, it was not difficult for him to suppress the matter.
"Looks like you're in a terrible state." Lu Sheng was surprised.
"Alright." Shajay nodded. He did not know what Jorin was up to. However, from what happened today, Jorin did not only possess great power, but he was also a lawless maniac.
The two of them were forced in the beginning, but they became more enthusiastic later on. The change was so great that it was unimaginable.
Shajay fell silent. He gulped and said nothing.
"There's no hurry. Prepare a change of clothes for my friend first. We'll go downstairs for our meal after that," Shajay said with his usual expression.
"The process isn't important. The result is."
"I need money. A lot of money. I need armor materials, components, and everything related to armor," Lu Sheng spread his hands, and said seriously, "And I need it as soon as possible."
Shajay's expression immediately turned grim.
Some of the dirty shops were still open. Many of them had signs of being smashed.
Wild dogs were barking around the trash cans where they were.
"Sharona?" Lu Sheng took a step forward and approached it slowly.
"Then expand your authority. Do you want to become the group's sole heir?" Lu Sheng asked temptingly.
The two of them walked through the wooden door one after another.
"I need money. A lot of money. I also need resources. Armor resources," Lu Sheng said honestly. "Initially, I wanted to work with your son. However, the moment I saw you, I felt that you might be a more suitable partner. "Behind him, Shajay's expression suddenly became very interesting when he heard this.
In the next two hours, he walked beside Shajay and Esha. He passed by the court, the prosecutor's office, the Federal Security Bureau, and other important departments. He allowed the fleeing Iron Screen Cohen to show himself. Cohen was being 'hunted' by a powerful person. He crushed all the departments along the way, causing direct and indirect economic losses to be uncountable.
"You must know that the Sha Family has its own security company and professional team. We even have various connections with the military. I was careless this time, but that doesn't mean that the Sha Family is weak, "Sharona said with a calm expression.
Lu Sheng stepped into the symbolic dividing line of the cherry district alone. There was a huge sign by the side of the road. A bunch of huge bright red cherries was painted on it. Underneath it was a bunch of filthy curses. There were also all sorts of obscene hand gestures and emojis.
However, Lu Sheng did not care about his expression. He only needed efficiency.
"What? You're not willing? "Lu Sheng sat on a stool by the bar counter and spun around. "Actually, you don't have a choice, do you? I've brought you around for so long. I even let Cohen show himself everywhere. Is the Iron Screen's intelligence network idiots? "
"That's why the country won't implicate you. However, the Iron Screen is different," Lu Sheng said with a smile.
"Oh?" Sharona's gaze sharpened.
Platinum City was the second largest city in the entire federation. Almost everyone had forgotten its original name. It mainly used the world-renowned Platinum Academy as its symbol. It was shortened to Platinum City.
There was no one sitting on the leather chair before the office table. However, a white-haired, stern old man sat on a circular sofa at the side.
The corridor was covered with a thick black and white checkered carpet. The sound of footsteps was almost inaudible.
It was easy to locate the members of the Iron Fist. Almost all of their main members were muscular. They had a tattoo of a clenched fist on their arms.
"It has to be legal!"
"You can call me Sheng." Lu Sheng gave him a random name.
He did not expect that he would be defeated before Jorin could even react.
"He values my big brother more. I'm just dispensable." Shajay wore a faint sneer on his face.
The Iron Fist's influence was not limited to Platinum City. Even the dozen or so cities around it were their territories. The other gangs could only struggle to survive under their might.
The two of them conversed for a long time in the office. An hour later, Shajay was appointed as the messenger between Lu Sheng and the Sha Group. The formal cooperation was reached verbally by Lu Sheng and Sharona.
Lu Sheng changed into casual attire that was more mature. He wore a plain patterned T-shirt and grayish-white trousers. It was completely different from Shajay's formal attire.
There were three buildings in the white villa. There was a main building and two secondary buildings. It was decorated like a palace or a pavilion.
"What can you offer me?" Sharona lived up to his reputation as a formidable character. Even in such a difficult situation, he did not back down and asked for his own benefits.
"Young Master, you're back? You must be hungry. Why don't we order some food now? " After entering, a middle-aged lady with long hair tied up in a bun and dressed in a servant's attire walked up to him. She bowed slightly as she asked.
After a long while, he spoke softly.
"Let me meet your father," Lu Sheng continued.
It was located on the fifteenth floor of the Golden Elephant Center, the largest skyscraper in Platinum City.
"Alright. I'll take care of things at the academy. What do you want to do next? " He had no doubt that if he refused, he might not even be able to walk out of this house the next morning.
Shajay did not reply. Instead, he looked at Lu Sheng.
"Do you want to work for me?" Lu Sheng suddenly asked. "You're rich, and I'm capable. If we work together, it'll be a piece of cake with the Sha Group's connections."
"Impossible!"
"Alright, I'll go in first. I'll be out soon." Shajay nodded. He pushed the door open.
"Who knows?" Lu Sheng smiled. "You look like you're rich. "You look rich, Shajay."
Initially, Sharona was reluctant to give in to his own benefits. However, after Lu Sheng gave him an offer that he could not refuse, he finally could not resist the temptation and decided to work together.
"Can you guarantee my safety?" Shajay's heart was pounding.
"Do you see that?" Lu Sheng raised his hand to block the light. Many cars from the police station were already on their way. There were also a dozen searchlights sweeping around. It was a little dazzling.
"He won't come either. If I don't have the potential to be a top student in the Platinum Academy, he won't even give me this house," Shajay said coldly.
"Pfft."
"Ding."
The entire city was divided into five districts. The district where the Platinum Academy was located was the most prosperous. The other district, the Cherry District, was the most chaotic district in Platinum City. Gangs ran amok, and prostitution and drugs were common.
Lu Sheng looked straight ahead. According to Jorin's memories, the largest gang in Platinum City was called the Iron Fist.
"Oh, it's Little Jie. Your dad just finished a meeting. He's a little tired. Watch your tone. Also, your friend can't go in. "The middle-aged man glanced at Lu Sheng who was at the side.
It was not just Sharona. Even Shajay could not help but be tempted after learning about Lu Sheng's offer.
However, he turned his head to look at Lu Sheng who was behind him. Lu Sheng was talking to Esha softly. He seemed to have noticed Shajay's gaze.
After a long while, Shajay mixed a glass of light green wine for each of them.
"That's my father's money, not mine," Shajay argued.
