Chapter 20: Poisoning Incident



Luo Tian felt hungry, probably because he had just used up too much energy and his body couldn't support him, so he asked, "Master, my father asked you to train and protect me, why don't you come to my residence in the Ice Palace, it will be more convenient."

Dugu Yun shook his head: "I don't like it there, it's too depressing. I'm used to freedom!"

Luo Tian continued to persuade him, "Someone is indeed trying to murder me, and this person is in the dark. You can't just stand by and watch him die! Besides, the Star Picking Competition is coming up soon, and I'm afraid I can't do it without you!"

Dugu Yun hesitated for a moment, and finally gave in: "Okay, but I have to make it clear in advance that I will only stay for a month, and I will leave the Ice Palace after the Star Picking Competition is over."

Luo Tian hugged Dugu Yun excitedly: "Thank you, Master, that's great. I'll send you my address and look forward to your visit!"

Dugu Yun did not answer and disappeared in an instant. Luo Tian smiled awkwardly. This old man really came and went without a trace!

Luo Tian backed up the data. At this time, the system prompted the message: [High-altitude ice breaking and ice slurry escape, experience value +100].

There was no improvement in my combat power and strength, and I didn't get any equipment, which was a bit regrettable. It would be great if I had a chance to test my own strength.

Luo Tian exited Kaiyuan, walked out of the immersion cabin, and returned to the bedroom.

Lan Yue had just finished cleaning and came over with a smile and asked, "Prince, do you want to prepare a meal?"

Luo Tian's stomach made a rumbling sound, and he said, "I'm really hungry, let's get ready. Oh, and call Lorraine and Sharp along, as I have something to ask them."

Lan Yue said, "Prince, you are a royal family member. According to the rules, they cannot dine with you."

Luo Tian found that although Lan Yue was young, she knew a lot about the rules. He was about to get angry, but then he thought that she meant well, so he said, "Remember, from today on, I am the rule. By the way, you eat with us. This is an order."

Lan Yue wanted to refuse, but when she heard the word "command", she had to nod: "Yes, sir. I'll go prepare the meal right away."

Half an hour later, Luo Tian followed Lan Yue to the restaurant, where Sharp and Lorraine were already waiting. There were dozens of dishes on the huge dining table, which reminded Luo Tian of the luxurious scene in ancient times when emperors would eat hundreds of dishes in one meal. He couldn't help but sigh: I didn't expect that one day I would be able to experience the feeling of an emperor's meal.

Luo Tian sat at the head seat at the dining table, looking at the sumptuous dishes and was about to feast on them, but he found that Sharp and Lorraine were still standing aside, with no intention of eating.

"Sharp, Lorraine, come and have dinner! There are so many dishes, I can't finish them all by myself!" Luo Tian said with a smile.

Lorraine stood aside and said solemnly, "Prince, according to the rules, we cannot sit and eat with the royal family. We should wait until you finish eating before we eat. This is in accordance with etiquette."

Sharp nodded in agreement: "Yes, Prince, we can't break the rules."

Luo Tian had no choice but to get up from the table, walk to Lorraine and Sharp, and pull them to the table: "You were sent by my father to help me, and eating together is also my intention. Besides, isn't obeying orders the greatest rule? Now I order you to eat with me."

Seeing that they couldn't refuse, Sharp and Lorraine finally sat down at the table, and Lan Yue also sat timidly aside.

Lorraine looked at Luo Tian and thought: Judging from his looks, Luo Tian is less like Robert than his two brothers, but judging from his temperament, he still has the demeanor of a king.

Sharp was even more moved. He had never seen a royal family member as approachable as the prince. Although today was the first time he had contact with the prince, he completely trusted him and had no airs. He couldn't help but have a better impression of Luo Tianduo.

Luo Tian looked at the dishes in front of him, mainly Western food such as steak, grilled sausage, pizza, etc. The tableware was all knives and forks, and it would have been nice to have a pair of chopsticks. But he was so hungry that he could only fill his stomach first. He cut a piece of steak and was about to put it in his mouth, but was stopped by Sharp.

"Prince, don't your tableware have safety detection functions?" Sharp asked.

Luo Tian put down his knife and fork: "What safety test? Do you suspect that this food is...toxic?"

Sharp said: "The tableware of the royal family all has a safety detection function. When the tableware touches the food, it will automatically scan the food ingredients and detect the safety of the ingredients through chemical sensors. If the food is safe, the tableware will emit green light. If the food is poisonous, it will issue a warning and display red light. But I saw that your tableware did not react after contacting the food, so it was a bit strange."

Luo Tian was shocked after hearing this. Could it be that someone deliberately replaced the tableware and then poisoned the food to kill him?

"Lan Yue, why don't you use safety testing tableware?" Luo Tian asked.

Lan Yue was so scared that she fell to her knees with a plop. She said tremblingly, "Prince, I didn't know there was such a thing as safety testing for tableware. Besides, the kitchen has always been responsible for preparing meals. I just conveyed your wishes to the kitchen. As for what tableware to use, it's up to them to decide."

Luo Tian said: "Then call the person in charge of the kitchen over here, immediately!"

Lan Yue quickly stood up and ran to the kitchen. Soon she led a tall and thin man who looked like a chef in and introduced him to Luo Tian: "Prince, this is the head chef Louis, who has been in charge of your meals."

Louis knelt in front of Luo Tian and said, "Prince, safety inspection tableware will ruin the taste of food, so I have never used it. Don't worry, these foods are definitely safe. Of course, if you need that kind of tableware, I will get it for you now."

Luo Tian noticed that Louis never looked up while he was talking, and his hands on the ground were shaking slightly. He must be hiding something.

Luo Tian said gently: "Don't be afraid, I'm just asking. Louis, have you eaten?"
