Chapter 91 Dinner before the game
Everyone felt a little sympathy for Shi Yi. Gu Hansheng looked at Lei Haoran and retorted unconvincedly.
"What do you know? This is imported camel milk, a can costs thousands. Just this one cup is worth half a month's salary!"
Lei Haoran touched his crew cut hair, showing a puzzled look, then suddenly widened his eyes and pointed at the small mini cup of milk in front of Shi Yi.
"This stuff is like expired milk, it's so expensive!"
In an instant, the three of them looked at Shi Yi with sympathy.
"Big sister, just wish you good luck. It's not a good thing to be favored by this old pervert."
As he spoke, Lei Haoran twisted his mouth and returned to his seat, covering his nose.
At this moment, in Lei Haoran's mind, his old friend Gu Hansheng had already been labeled as an old pervert.
Don’t think he can’t see it. Isn’t Gu Hansheng jealous just because his member smiled at Shi Yi?
If you have the guts, declare your sovereignty in front of everyone.
Under the gaze of everyone, a few drops of cold sweat dripped from Shi Yi's forehead. He quickly drank the cup of milk and handed the cup to Gu Hansheng, wishing he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"Dear colleagues and friends, welcome to the Lu Family Manor. This year, our supernatural power competition is held at the Haicheng branch. As the host, our Haicheng branch will warmly welcome you all."
A young man walked slowly onto the stage, looking excited and neat.
"This guy is the captain of the Maritime Bureau branch. He's a young and promising talent. I heard his whole family are coal bosses, so he's very wealthy. When he first started working at the police station, his parents and family didn't agree. But later, he refused to give in and knelt in front of the Mazu Temple, creating nine holy grails in a row. Only then did his family agree to let him work at the police station."
Tang Yu adjusted his glasses and explained.
Shi Yi was a little shocked for a moment.
"Mazu? The Holy Grail?"
Tang Yu nodded.
"This has been a long-standing custom in Haicheng. They believe in Mazu. If Mazu agrees, then no one else has any reason to object."
Mi Chen's expression was extremely exaggerated.
"He was the only child in his family at the time. How could they possibly agree to let him work in such a dangerous place as the police station? His family had a fortune worth hundreds of billions waiting for him to inherit. But he was aware of the situation. After his superpowers erupted, he went straight to the police station, saying he wanted to serve the country. Needless to say, the value of these nine Holy Grails in Haicheng caused quite a stir back then."
Shi Yi suddenly understood. He had heard about this kind of custom before, but he didn't expect that the people in Haicheng were so pious.
"Next, please invite Mr. Zhang to host our competition."
After saying that, he walked down, and a white-haired old man slowly walked up.
Mr. Zhang held a laser pointer in his hand, and behind him a huge screen was shaking from top to bottom.
Suddenly, a few lights came on the shaking screen, and it was a PPT about the case.
Shi Yi touched his hair in confusion.
"So we're in a meeting now?"
Mi Chen nodded.
"Yes, but we didn't expect that this meeting would be held in such an environment."
In the past, they held meetings in a conference room or some large guesthouse.
But this year, because the Haicheng branch was wealthy and had Lu Li, the God of Wealth, he simply waved his hand and came to the manor.
This was the first time for them to present the PPT of the case on the dance floor of the manor.
The elderly man walked straight forward, stroked his beard, and began to explain the case in a deep voice.
The information is probably not much different from what Shi Yi and the others got. After all, this case is a competition.
The people here are all competitors. If they have any clues, they will definitely not share them.
"This guy, we all call him Old Zhang, is a veteran in the management of the Special Bureau. He's one of the veterans of several Special Bureaus, and his words carry a lot of weight. I didn't expect him to preside over the meeting this year?"
Gu Hansheng said softly from the side, and Shi Yi was a little surprised when he heard it.
"I'm sure everyone knows what the prize for this year's champion is. Everyone, work hard and strive to solve the case as soon as possible. Each of your branches will have one opportunity to ask the judges for help."
"However, once you use this opportunity, it means you will give up this competition and will not be able to get the final reward."
"Wait a moment, we will give each of you a locator. Wearing this locator properly on your body will allow us to locate your position at any time."
"If this locator fails or disappears, we will immediately send out a search team, but it also means that you are out of this competition."
"I hope everyone keeps this locator safe. I remind you again, while the rewards are great, they are not as important as your life. If you are in trouble or imminent danger, you must seek help immediately!"
As he spoke, Mr. Zhang walked down and walked to the side with the help of a group of people.
Then a few people came forward with a few boxes. They were small miniature instruments, very light.
Shi Yi put it in his trouser pocket. When Mi Chen saw it in his trouser pocket, he couldn't help but reach out and take out the micro locator directly.
"Don't put it here. It's easy to fall when you run."
Shi Yi was a little stunned.
"Where should I put it?"
Feng Ming immediately placed the detector in Shi Yi's palm.
"Let's go back to the hotel later and I'll teach you."
Shi Yi nodded blankly.
"Well, welcome everyone to our Haicheng branch and to the Lu family. We apologize for the poor hospitality, so please forgive us!"
As he spoke, the man clapped his hands twice, and then different waiters came forward with trays and food carts in their hands and started serving the dishes to each table one by one.
What kind of approach is this?
We'll have dinner straight after the meeting, right?
Seeing the food above, Mi Chen's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wow, the Lu family is indeed a wealthy family. Australian lobsters costing hundreds of dollars per pound. Are they allowed to eat as much as they want?"
Not far away, a food cart carrying Australian lobsters was seen, presenting plate after plate to the crowd. The tables were almost full.
Mi Chen rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the Australian lobster and started eating.
"We don't have much else in Haicheng, but we have a lot of seafood. We will make sure you are served three meals a day."
At the Northeast Branch, Lei Haoran muttered.
"Is he afraid we'll find evidence, so he wants to tempt us with delicious food?"
As he spoke, Lei Haoran flipped through the dish.
"Isn't this some kind of laxative?"
Hearing this, Mi Chen, who was eating happily, stopped eating for a moment.
