Chapter 530 Visiting the Shenglan Family
Chapter 530 Visiting the Shenglan Family
After "Your Excellency" finished speaking, Zhu Rong also showed a look of shock.
"Commission C-77, the content of that commission is not..."
He seemed to be a little shy and didn't dare to say it directly.
Although the Public Security Bureau did not have the courage to install surveillance or eavesdropping equipment in the cells used to detain nobles, he was still a little worried that the walls had ears.
Your Excellency also nodded.
"Yes, it's the commission I used your identity to infiltrate," she said, picking up another piece of barbecue and shoveling it into her mouth, sitting on the sofa. "I originally wanted to see who was so audacious, but when I got in, I met the vice president of the 'Divine Power Group'... I don't know where that son of a bitch got the information from, but he actually infiltrated himself. I have no idea what he's going to do!"
"Not long after, a new expert I'd never seen before came in, wearing the same [Mind-Reading Goggles] as mine... Now that I think about it, he must have been planted by Forbolo..."
"Finally, even that damn Saint Lankui showed up... There are five people in one team, and four of them are planted with backgrounds. It's really interesting!"
Zhu Rong nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this. "After all, this is a matter of great importance—but since both the Vice President of Shenli Group and Sheng Lankui have come in, does that mean one of them must be behind this commission?"
"Not necessarily, or definitely not," the woman calling herself "Your Excellency" slowly shook her head. "If it was the collective will of the Divine Power Group... neither the Shuiyin family nor the Qiu family would have let that vice president personally monitor it—he's a well-known centrist."
"So I'm more inclined to believe that he got the information himself, but he doesn't have anyone he can trust, so he had to infiltrate the situation himself to get firsthand information that would give him an advantage in his subsequent team-building... For me, this is actually a good opportunity to win him over."
As she spoke, she took out a piece of paper and slowly wiped her hands clean.
"As for Sheng Lankui... he should know who did it. Since this matter is in the interests of the Sheng Lan family, he might as well get involved and join in the fun... If it succeeds, he can even claim it as his own achievement at the family meeting. Why not?"
“But he had absolutely no incentive to initiate this commission himself – it would have been too risky.”
Zhu Rong asked curiously, "Well, now that there's this additional variable of Forboluo, what are you going to do?"
"Since he seems to be planning something, then we should cooperate," the woman said calmly. "Killing the princes and nobles? That sounds scary enough. Let's see if he really dares to do it."
"Honestly, I actually have my doubts... This Forboluo and the people he planted are very likely to have some kind of cooperative relationship with the initiator of this commission."
"After all... there are very few people in the City That Never Sleeps who would dare to attack the princes and nobles. Rather than saying it's a coincidence that we ran into two groups at once, it's better to suspect that we encountered different people from the same group!"

In front of Shenglan's house, the car began to slow down slowly.
Lin Yu looked through the car window and found that compared with the courtyard of Buye Tian’s family, the Shenglan family had a different style.
The Shenglan family's residence is more like a Western-style palace, and the overall appearance of the building is luxurious and magnificent at first glance.
Just the outer wall, made of jade-like material, is carved with various exquisite reliefs - it seems that they are praising the great achievements and good deeds of the successive heads and celebrities of the Shenglan family.
Through the wall, you can see the dome-shaped white tower and the exquisite mansion. At the same time, the family emblem of the Shenglan family is hung everywhere: a magnificently blooming and vibrant three-leaf, seven-petal flower.
The driver of Buyetian's family seemed to be familiar with the place. He parked the car easily in the "VIP visitor" parking space and then opened the door for Lin Yu.
"Mr. Forboluo, I have already sent a visiting card to the Shenglan family on behalf of the Buyetian family."
"Their butler should be here to greet you soon. I can't go with you, so you can wait in the VIP room over there."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu nodded and got out of the car.
"The architectural styles of these princely and noble houses may be different, but the rules are still very much the same."
Lin Yu sighed.
Before I even reached the VIP room, I saw the magnificent wrought iron gate of Shenglan's house open wide.
A tall butler walked out from inside. He had gray hair and slightly wrinkled face. He looked older than Barry.
But this did not prevent the butler from standing upright and full of energy. He was wearing a very exquisite and fitting dress with a golden coat of arms of the Saint Lan family on his chest.
If butlers have ranks, then this old butler is obviously half a level higher than Barry.
After all, Barry is just the butler of Sheng Lankui, who may become the "boss" in the future, and the old butler in front of him may be the chief butler who commands the entire Shenglan family!
Behind him, two rows of servants lined up.
"Thank you for your visit, Mr. Forbolo, the distinguished guest from the Buyetian family."
He bowed slightly and said, "Why did you come to visit me today?"
Looking at this grand ceremony, Lin Yu has gradually begun to get used to the face that "Fu Luo" has in the inner city of the City That Never Sleeps.
He nodded slightly and said, "I'm here to visit Young Master Sheng Lankui."
"Master Kui?" the butler was slightly surprised. "Master Kui had an accident at Wanjin Tianzuo tonight and is recuperating. He may not be seeing guests, but I will arrange for someone to inform you. Please be prepared to be rejected."
"I know. I'm here with Wanjin Tianzuo tonight. Just tell me... He should meet me."
Lin Yu nodded, and the old butler then called a servant over and whispered a few words to him.
The servant quickly crossed the lawn and fountain garden behind the gate and left. The Shenglan family's land area was not small, but in one respect it was much more humane than the Buyetian family.
These servants had some kind of fast-moving means like a balance bike. Lin Yu saw the servant jump onto the bike and run away.
The old butler bowed to Lin Yu again.
"Dear Mr. Forbolo, please take the mobility scooter and move to the reception room to wait..."
"It's okay, I'll wait here."
Lin Yu waved his hand.
He estimated that after what happened tonight, Sheng Lankui wouldn't let him wait too long...
A few minutes later, Lin Yu heard a commotion coming from the direction of the main building of the Shenglan family.
All that could be heard was the servants' calls coming one after another along the garden path.
"Master, you can't do that!"
Sheng Lankui rushed out of the garden in the same balance bike as the servants, followed by several servants chasing after him.
He came to Lin Yu, jumped off the balance bike, and then spoke unexpectedly.
"You really came here alone..."
"Why, are you planning to switch from Nevernight Fire Music to me?"
