Chapter 556 Holy Sh*t and Rain of Gold

“Also, inform the officers outside to directly stop any group that has dozens of people like this and refuse them entry.” Selina directed this last instruction to her colleagues from the Eastside police department.

Nobody had any objections.

Just now, the female detective whose face was half-hidden by her hat and sunglasses hadn’t backed down at all in the face of dozens of criminals. She returned fire as soon as she found an opportunity, and had made it impossible for the other party to surround the security guards and the police officers.

In the end, she even killed multiple criminals in a row. She was definitely brave and tough.

Now that she had given out the instructions, Stark Industries’ security team listened to her obediently too.

They didn’t have a choice. The head of the security team had been wounded in the first wave, and was now on his way to the hospital – with luck, he would survive.

Two squad leaders had also been shot one after another. They weren’t in critical condition, but had to go to the hospital too.

Without a leader for now, Stark’s security team could only listen to the orders of the brave female detective.

In comparison, the seasoned officers from the Eastside police department were much smarter. They instantly took cover the moment gunshots rang out, and didn’t reveal themselves easily.

They also stretched out their guns every now and then to fire at the criminals at unpredictable moments, which made them a bigger threat than the security guards.

Therefore, none of the officers at the security checkpoint were injured.

While Selina was giving out instructions, Luke was running like crazy. Maintaining the speed of a regular person in a 100-meter sprint, he was steady as he carried the two big bags and shattered a window with one shot from his gun before he ran out of the building

This was the back of the building which had relatively fewer people.

Even then, there were still a lot of visitors. Looking around, Luke sighed.

The countdown in his heart was coming to an end. He couldn’t waste any more time.

Luke sped up and rushed to a manhole. Kicking away the heavy lid, he wrapped his special rope darts around the two bags and quickly and steadily lowered them down the manhole.

He raised his hand, and the rope darts were quickly recalled.

Moving a long distance away, Luke said in his earpiece, “Selina, tell them to be prepared for the upcoming explosion. They need to maintain order and make sure that no greater riots take place.”

Selina simply said “Copy that, ” before she started yelling, “Move it! Everybody, move it! There’s going to be an explosion…”

Luke was amused.

It had been a long time since Selina shouted so loudly. He kind of missed it.

Looking at the wide open manhole not far away, he couldn’t help but mumble to himself, “Stark Industries won’t be so petty as to demand compensation from me, right?”

As he was thinking that, there was a deafening explosion in the sewer. In the blink of an eye, multiple manholes nearby soared into the air.

Thankfully, not many people were here, and none of them were near the manhole. Though they were quite shocked, and some even fell to the ground, nobody was hurt. Luke was relieved. “Looks like it isn’t a big problem.”

Then, he sniffed the air. “Is this… the sewage system? It stinks!” He hastily reduced the sensitivity of Sharp Nose.

A moment earlier, in the toilet of a particular reception room on the first floor, a slightly pale white old man was standing in front of the toilet.

The tinkling didn’t stop until quite a while later. He heaved a sigh. “Why doesn’t even pissing make me feel a little better?” Gloomy and frustrated, he even forgot to flush the toilet.

Right at that moment, there was a deafening noise from outside the building, which gave him quite a shock.

Before he realized what was going on, the toilet suddenly soared straight up to the ceiling.

It was followed by a magnificent fountain of yellow and brown fluid which sprayed the bathroom like a rain of gold. The old man, who had turned from white to “yellow,” was stupefied. It wasn’t until a long while later that he cursed out loud. “Holy sh*t!!!”

Outside the door, an old man asked, “Mr. Weyland, are you alright?”

The white old man had already started to retch when he opened the door of the bathroom. “Mr. Takagi, please call… Ergh!”

The moment he spoke, he felt the rain of gold on his face drip into his mouth. He instantly threw up.

In the living room, Takagi had just taken a few steps from the window to the bathroom.

But when the bathroom door opened, a horrible stench drifted out, followed by a man who was drenched in wet excrement.

Using the iron will that he had cultivated after all these years, Mr. Takagi restrained himself, and after listening to what the man had to say, he moved quickly to the door and did his very best to maintain his customary solemn tone. “Very well, Mr. Weyland, please wait a moment. I’ll summon your assistant.”

He opened the door and walked out after he said that.

After he fetched the man’s bodyguards and assistant, he finally gagged and murmured, “Damn it! Why does he smell so bad? Did he fall into the toilet?”

As he gagged, he suddenly saw someone passing by.

Stunned, Takagi subconsciously called out to the person. “Detective Luke?”

The person who had just passed by suddenly paused and took two steps back before he turned his head.

Seeing Takagi, he took off his sunglasses and his mask and put on his peaked cap. “Mr. Takagi, why are you here?”

Looking at Luke’s movements, Takagi felt that something was off. “I’m here with a client. Excuse me, but could you tell me what’s going on out there?”

Without much hesitation, Luke briefly told Takagi about the explosions just now and the possibility of an extremist attack.

Why was Takagi so nice to him, and why did he send gifts to Luke at every holiday? Precisely for moments like this.

After informing him of the situation in a few sentences, Luke said in a low voice, “Mr. Takagi, no clients are as important as your own safety. I’m not sure if those people have accomplices. If possible, you should go to the underground parking lot with your bodyguards and leave immediately… Forget it, I’ll walk you out, or you may be interrogated by the police officers for a long time.”

Solemnly, Takagi bowed and thanked him. “Thank you for the warning, Detective Luke. I’ll ask Mr. Weyland to leave with me.”

Luke was stunned. “Mr. Weyland? From that telecommunications and robotics company?” Takagi said, “Yes, Mr. Charles Weyland is Weyland Corporation’s chairman of the board. He’s the client with me today.”

Luke gestured to Takagi, who was smart enough to quickly get it. He instantly drew closer to Luke.

Then, Luke said to him in an extremely low voice, “The extremists who launched an attack just now took Weyland Corporation’s bus here, and they entered the building as employees of the company. Mr. Takagi, are you sure you want to wait for this chairman of the board?”
