As he spoke, Luo Tian rotated the screen and filmed Ran Mouri in as well.
"Yuanzi? Xiao Luo, you wouldn't be thinking of..."
Upon seeing her best friend appear on the screen, the girl was momentarily stunned, and then a guess popped into her head.
"Hmm! Sonoko-neechan is so rich, why don't we just ask her to buy this art museum!"
Confirming the girl's guess, Luo Tian deliberately raised his voice a few decibels so that Director Ochiai, who was not far away, could also hear it.
"Isn't this a bit..."
"Buy, buy, buy! Xiao Luo, I'll buy you anything you want!"
Sonoko Suzuki's straightforward answer interrupted Ran Mouri's hesitation, and the latter gave the former a wry look.
You really are still lusting after Xiao Luo's body! You're despicable!
"Really? Miss, are you really willing to buy this art museum?"
Upon hearing this, Director Ochiai, who had just looked utterly dejected, immediately scrambled over.
The sight of an old face crowding onto the screen startled Miss Suzuki.
However, after hearing the whole story, she also felt a bit of sympathy for the poor old man.
"No problem! Leave it to me!"
I was just worried about not having a chance to spend money on Xiao Luo lately, and now I have the chance!
She had already had the skincare cream formula she received as a reward reviewed by professionals at her own company. Just considering the fact that it had no side effects, it absolutely surpassed all similar products on the market.
This is just the initial stage; she can't believe what the effects will be if she goes any further.
Although it was inconvenient to tell her family about her background, her mother, Tomoko, the head of the Suzuki Foundation, did not delve into it out of trust in her daughter.
This gave Sonoko Suzuki even more motivation!
They weren't just lusting after Luo Tian's body, but also after those amazing rewards.
As we all know, when everyone is having a harmonious and pleasant discussion, there are always some people who like to make a discordant noise.
"Hmph! Have you all forgotten that I have a contract here? Want to buy the art museum? In your next life!"
President Manaka, who had already finished calling for people, eavesdropped for a while. After all, he had put a lot of effort into the plan to convert the art museum into a hotel.
If the deal falls through, he'll probably have to declare bankruptcy.
He immediately jumped out to mock them, trying to shatter their illusions.
"I don't like hearing that! There aren't many things the Suzuki family can't buy!"
These words greatly displeased Miss Suzuki on the other side of the screen.
When has she ever been treated like this?!
"The Suzuki family? You're from the Suzuki Group?"
Now it was President Manaka's turn to be unsettled.
He's just a small-time president, how could he compare to the renowned Suzuki Group?
He was very knowledgeable about business matters. Even with a contract, if the other party really wanted to buy the art museum, they could come up with at least ten ways to do so.
Either way, it's an outcome he can't bear.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were from the Suzuki Group! I'm truly sorry!"
President Manaka was filled with remorse. He ran over with his chubby face and apologized in a humble voice.
"Um, about the art museum, could you...?"
"Uncle, you have a contract, what are you afraid of?"
Luo Tian revealed an innocent smile, but in President Zhenzhong's eyes, he was no different from a demon.
"Young Master, don't joke around. How could I dare to compare myself to the Suzuki Group?"
"Then tell me about the curator grandfather's attempt to murder you..."
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, I'm perfectly fine now!"
"Oh, Inspector Megure, you heard that too, didn't you?"
With a chuckle, Luo Tian looked at Inspector Megure and the other police officers beside him.
This is what he was waiting for!
"Um, President Manaka, are you sure you don't want to sue this curator for attempted murder?"
Although they are on Luo Tian's side, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.
He also knew that once the procedures were completed, the team could leave immediately!
Great, another day of leaving get off work early!
"Oh, right, it was all a misunderstanding. Thank you for your help!"
President Manaka's expression at this moment was completely different from his previous arrogant demeanor; it could only be described as humble.
This humility is clearly unlikely to yield any good results.
After all, that's what businessmen are for!
Chapter 25 Speedrun Maple Leaf Coins
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for bankrupting a company president! Reward: 10 of the world's most delicious chocolates, and the antidote for Drug A (one-hour version)!]
[The world's most delicious chocolate: It's simply the most delicious chocolate in the world!]
What are you doing here?!
He made a quick, impulsive comment, but then Luo Tian suddenly realized that something seemed off.
Wait a minute! I just saved him! Is this considered a scam? A bankrupt scam? That's ridiculous!
The system's settlement voice startled Luo Tian.
He was clearly doing a good deed, and this actually worked?! On the contrary, the person he reported for stealing, Kubota, didn't even get a reward?
For some, losing money is worse than death! And for others, even without host intervention, they will still be arrested!
The system's answer was as concise and clear as ever, but Luo Tian also showed a knowing expression.
Running out of money while alive, and dying with money unspent – these have always been two major problems that torment people throughout their lives.
Given President Manaka's personality, it's understandable that he would think this way.
However, just robbing him of an art museum led to his bankruptcy. How much money did this guy actually spend on this project?
Luo Tian didn't know, and he didn't want to know.
In any case, the museum is now owned by the Suzuki Foundation, and the director is still Director Ochiai.
It's currently undergoing renovations, but I believe it will be even more popular when it reopens.
At most, they could have the Suzuki family take some items out of their safe to display and attract attention.
To be honest, Luo Tian never imagined that Miss Suzuki would trust him so much and be so accommodating to him.
Buying the art museum would cost at least tens of millions of Sakura yen, and that girl didn't even blink when she transferred the money.
Is this what it means for the rich to live a life of luxury?
Luo Tian had the idea of finding a rich young woman to support him again, but after looking at his thin arms and legs, he quickly gave up the idea.
Let's think about this kind of thing again when we get the permanent cure!
Meanwhile, Sonoko Suzuki, who had just received a game plan as a system reward, was busy having her company's professionals evaluate it.
……
Another week passed in the blink of an eye, and Luo Tian's leisurely life underwent a significant turning point.
Ran Mouri has started school!
This means that at home there will be no one to play with him, no one to cook for him, and no one to please him!
Despite Kogoro Mouri's best efforts to fulfill his responsibilities as a guardian, his abilities are limited, and he can't even cook a decent meal.
Moreover, one is a beautiful and charming young girl, and the other is a burly and useless middle-aged man. How can they be compared?
There's absolutely no comparison between them!
So these past few days, while the girl was at school, Luo Tian was basically out having fun.
With the strength pills and speed potions to enhance his physique, and the life-saving skill of the Spirit Pill, he has some ability to protect himself in Beika Town.
And thanks to his lucky (death) aura, he managed to make a big splash!
……
"Hey! Inspector Megure? Come quick to the building over the Toto Bridge, I've surrounded a bunch of bad guys!"
Receiving such a naive phone call, most people would probably take it as a joke.
But Megure wouldn't do that. Although he always closes cases as accidental suicides and longs to leave work early, he is a conscientious and responsible detective!
Moreover, based on their previous two encounters, he had a pretty good impression of Luo Tian, the cute little boy, and believed that he wouldn't play such a prank.
But... are you sure you didn't slip up? Or are you surrounded by a bunch of bad guys?
Fearing that something might happen to Luo Tian, Inspector Megure immediately led a team to the abandoned building, following the location sent by Luo Tian.
Upon entering the room, one sees a large pile of glittering gold coins, and three foreign men buried in the pile of coins.
"Something supernatural has happened?!"
Even having witnessed many major cases, Inspector Megure was momentarily speechless, his mind blanking out.
With a somewhat dazed look in his eyes, he glanced at the little boy eating a strawberry sundae beside him.
"...That's right...I defeated those bad guys and found the treasure!"
Luo Tian licked his spoon and summarized succinctly.
"What the hell!"
Unsurprisingly, this remark drew a collective chorus of complaints from the police officers.
Do you think this is an adventure game? You think you can get treasure by defeating a dragon?!
We've defeated so many prisoners, how come we've never seen so many gold coins before?!
"This is really..."
Megure scratched his head through his hat, feeling a bit confused and unsure of what to say.
Considering that the person in front of him was a child with limited language skills and was unlikely to lie, he decided to believe what the child said.
Then, the cleanup work began.
The handcuffed the bad guys, collected the gold coins, and even thoughtfully called an ambulance for the three guys who had been knocked unconscious.
"Hey, Inspector Megure!"
After quickly licking the last bit of strawberry jam clean, Luo Tian casually handed the empty cup to a police officer to throw away before approaching Inspector Megure.
"I found these gold coins, you're not going to steal them, are you?"
That was his ultimate purpose in calling the police!
Given his current childlike appearance, hiding or dealing with so many gold coins would be a troublesome matter.
If you hire gangsters to sell it, given the local customs and traditions in Mika, you might get double-crossed and your life could be in danger.
Why not just hand it over to the Metropolitan Police Department, then throw a tantrum like a child? Even if you can't get it all, you could at least get a few hundred million or tens of millions, right?
"what?"
This problem caused Megure's CPU to start smoking.
Is this something I can keep to myself?!
He had just received intelligence that these gold coins were stolen goods, taken from an Italian bank by a group of robbers, and that even if they were recovered, they would have to be returned to their rightful owner.
However, looking into the little boy's innocent, expectant eyes, he just couldn't bring himself to say those words.
What if it casts a shadow on a child's young mind?!
