Chapter 17 Don’t you think this is a bit too coincidental?

Today was a bit bad for the entire Roche Group.

As a large-scale supernatural company ranked among the best in the world, it has been entrenched in Longcheng for decades and no one dares to mess with it.

But the company's recently popular psychic, the invisible man Luo Chen, died in the company's nursing room after a car accident and poisoning.

Then the secretary general of the secretarial team, Wu Lan, also met with an unexpected accident in the company.

The Roche Group then realized that there might be some unknown connection between the two accidents.

It doesn't seem like an accident, but more like someone is declaring war on the Roche Group!

Roche Group, in the top floor conference room.

Almost all the security team members stood in a row and looked respectfully at the figure in front of them.

Even Chen Mo, who was a manager, didn't dare to breathe loudly.

He was reporting carefully:

"At the time of the incident, two-thirds of the security team members were guarding outside the meeting room."

"Until the glass was broken, there was nothing else unusual."

"Because the only flying ability user in the team was ordered by Wu Lan to perform another mission, the security team was powerless when she fell from the building..."

"As for Wu Lan... he fell from a height of 100 meters and broke into three pieces. He died on the spot."

Listening to Chen Mo's report, the figure was unprecedentedly silent.

The Luo family, which founded the Luo Group, is divided into the main family and branches, and attaches great importance to legitimate and illegitimate children.

Born into a branch family, Luo Ling has shown extraordinary wisdom since he was a child and has made many important suggestions for the development and operation of the company.

But the only flaw... is that he has no special powers, which means that although he has the ability, he has never been able to enter the real power circle of the company.

Of course, that was the case in the past when there were no superpowers.

"Since I got the girl's special ability, I have the opportunity to join the top of the group."

"He is also in charge of the extremely important investigation team."

"I was about to be promoted, and it happened to be my probation period within the family, but so many problems occurred!"

Luo Ling frowned, his eyes fixed on the entire conference room.

All I saw was a mess.

The broken coffee table, with marks left by the dried wine.

The floor tiles were full of scratches and cracks, and there were broken glass scattered all over the floor.

There was also the empty window, with wind blowing in from a hundred meters above.

"I remember that before the incident, Wu Lan met someone in the conference room?"

As if he had thought of something, Luo Ling asked coldly.

Hearing this, Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat and he quickly replied:

"It is true. We retrieved all the surveillance cameras in the group and found that before Wu Lan fell from the building, she did meet with a middle-aged man in the conference room."

"According to the information provided by the front desk on the first floor, it was a man named Feng. It seems that Wu Lan called the front desk directly and asked them to let him pass."

"Besides this, there is no other information about this man named Feng, but I have already started investigating and I believe I will find it soon."

Luo Ling, this young man with a particularly gloomy face, narrowed his eyes at this moment, as if thinking about something.

Listening to Chen Mo's simple summary of the information, I couldn't help but be full of doubts.

"A private meeting...interesting."

"How long has this Feng been alone with Wu Lan?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo quickly flipped open the investigation record in his hand and read line by line:

"From the time shown in the surveillance video."

"This Feng entered the building at 5:53 p.m. yesterday and took the VIP elevator to the top floor at around 5:58 p.m."

"But he left the meeting room at 6:13 p.m."

"I was alone with Wu Lan for about ten minutes, which wasn't a long time."

"A few minutes after he left, the crane operator suffered a heart attack and the crane arm lost control. The platform support where two maintenance workers were standing crashed into the conference room glass." "The hook on it accidentally hooked Wu Lan, causing her to fall from a height of 100 meters."

"As for the man surnamed Feng, according to common sense, he doesn't seem to be a direct suspect."

Chen Mo closed the folder in his hand and looked at Luo Ling who was standing in front of him.

In his description, "Mr. Feng" has an absolute alibi.

The evidence comes from the surveillance footage of the Roche Group.

"An accident...another accident..."

"The car accident of Luo Chen, who is highly praised by the company, was an accident. Was Secretary-General Wu Lan's fall from the building also an accident?"

"Two accidents happened in about a week. This has never happened in the decades since the Roche Group was founded!"

Luo Ling laughed in anger.

He walked to the broken window.

Staring at the ground a hundred meters below.

"If there is no suspicion, then why did that Feng deliberately draw a skull smiley face on the side of the road before Wu Lan fell from the building?"

"And Wu Lan hit Smiley's face accurately?"

"Just after he left, Wu Lan died?"

"Coincidence? Accident? There is no such coincidence in the world!"

"Call here everyone who has had contact with this Feng."

"Also, call the two surviving maintenance workers from the logistics team over here."

Luo Ling gave the order.

Soon, all the people who were mentioned stood in a row in the conference room.

Everyone was trembling and didn't dare to look Luo Ling in the eye.

Each of them can be considered a witness to yesterday's accident.

"I called Secretary-General Wu to confirm. She personally let the man surnamed Feng pass. I also took him to the VIP elevator. But there was one thing that was very strange."

"Even when the elevator had clearly arrived, he stood at the elevator entrance and waited for about a minute before going up."

The female receptionist who received Ning Feng recalled.

"I remember it was around 5:53 p.m., but I was late because of the traffic jam because I had to work the night shift. I kept checking the time, so I remember it clearly."

"After I passed the gate, I accidentally bumped into a man. I bumped into his shoulder and it felt like I hit a piece of iron."

“When I went back to check, I found that the place where I hit was already bruised.”

The person who spoke was the young girl who bumped into Ning Feng yesterday afternoon and whose documents were scattered all over the floor.

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves to show the bruises on his shoulders.

Hearing this, Luo Ling seemed to be thinking about something.

"You should be a formal employee of the group. According to company records, you are a Delta δ-level mutant."

"The physical strength is about five times that of an ordinary person."

"Just a single collision can cause a large bruise..."

"It seems that this Feng guy's ability level is gamma gamma, or above."

"Moreover, in all likelihood, it is a body-hardening ability similar to yours, Chen Mo."

Luo Ling's eyes lit up and he thought he had found the key.

Then he looked at Chen Mo who was standing there in a daze.
"Chen Mo, I'll loan you the members of the investigation team. Go investigate all the people with hardened abilities who have not registered with the ability company in Longcheng."

"Age is around 40, and ability level is around high gamma level."

Luo Ling pointed at Chen Mo, as if he had thought of something, and added a few more words:

"Also, go check the surveillance cameras of the five streets near where Luo Chen had the car accident. Find someone with connections to check and see if there are any suspicious targets with a body type similar to that of this Feng guy."
