"She leaked the news of the Governor's Office's Mansion development, and then had those companies send gangsters to seize ordinary citizens' houses ahead of time."

"Let's not talk about that for now..." Luo Chen interrupted Jiu, who was rambling on about the other party's crimes.

This isn't the time to talk about now, before those representatives realize what's happening.

The most important thing is to disguise this guy as Talulah.

Luo Chen used Group Disguise on the unconscious woman, turning her into an unconscious Talulah.

Then he smeared some red ink on her thumb and pressed it onto the agreement that had just been written.

After doing all this, Luo Chen and Jiu carried her to the edge of the balcony, head down, and threw her off heavily.

Boom--

At the same time.

The company representatives still sitting in the conference room were getting a little anxious.

After all, this agreement involves too many projects and has huge profits; signing it as soon as possible will put everyone at ease.

Talulah's delay in signing the agreement only made them feel like they were being roasted on a fire.

"Why isn't she back yet? Could she have changed her mind?" the pregnant woman said uncertainly.

"Probably not, wasn't she just getting some fresh air?"

"What if they change their minds?"

"You mean she spent hours in meetings with us, and it was all just a joke?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"Why hasn't she come back yet?"

"Shall we go take a look?"

The representatives exchanged glances and then stood up.

Whether Talulah changes her mind or not, they should be given a definite answer.

The representatives went to the balcony, knocked on the balcony door, and then pushed it open.

Meanwhile, Talulah, disguised as Nine, was leaning against the balcony railing, watching them with eyes devoid of any emotion.

It was like looking at a group of enemies.

"Chief Talulah?"

Everyone felt a little uneasy under Talulah's gaze and couldn't help but speak up.

At that moment, Talulah tossed the documents in her hand in front of them.

The documents scattered all over the floor with a clatter.

Immediately afterwards, Jiu Bang read aloud the lines that Luo Chen had given him:

"Your heads won't last long, so hurry up and eat and drink well."

"The Lungmen Guard Department won't protect you, and neither can the Governor's Office. I hope you like the script I've arranged."

"You are the culprits who Talulah to her death."

After saying that, Jiu sighed and complained to herself, "Why am I always the one acting?"

She lightly jumped onto the balcony railing, spread her arms, and jumped off the building.

Chapter 244 Chen Huijie has completely calmed down.

???

Everyone stared in disbelief as Talulah jumped off the balcony.

No, sisters?

We were just having a nice chat, how could someone jump off a building like that?

All the representatives rushed to the edge of the balcony railing and looked down, only to see Talulah lying in a pool of blood.

Because it was dark, no one could see Talulah's condition clearly.

However, this conference room is only five stories high, so unless someone falls headfirst, an average Terra person shouldn't die from the fall.

Although Talulah didn't die from the fall, they were beginning to find Talulah injuries troublesome:

"Someone come quickly and check the situation!"

"Pick up the contract first. No matter what injury she sustained, the contract must be honored."

"Everyone can testify that she jumped down on her own; it has nothing to do with us."

"That's right, that's right."

Disguised as a staff member, Luo Chen looked at them and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Whether they did it or not is unimportant.

The important question is whether Chen Huijie will believe that they did it.

"Gentlemen, what has happened?"

Luo Chen pretended to hear their call to the staff and emerged from the corner where he had been hiding.

With the Governor's Office's Office staff present, the chaotic group of representatives immediately felt as if they had found a pillar of support:

Listen to me.

"She jumped herself, you have to prove it to us."

At the same time.

Thunder rumbled overhead as torrential rain poured down over Lungmen.

The thunderous roar made the Lungmen Guard Department building tremble slightly. Chen Huijie, who was handling official business, was startled and turned to look in the direction of the Governor's Office.

What happened?

Chen Huijie could not see the lights of the Governor's Office because the view outside the window was a hazy, misty rain.

The torrential rain enveloped the entire Lungmen, just like decades ago when Koschei kidnapped Talulah.

The same scene stirred an involuntary panic within Chen Huijie.

That day, she lost her sister.

Will she lose something again on this day?

Just then, the thunder stopped, and Chen Huijie's heart calmed down.

Now that Talulah is back by his side, what is there to fear?

Chen Huijie took a deep breath and prepared to continue her work.

Only by quickly resolving the crisis brought about by Luo Chen can she and Talulah have a future.

Suddenly, the terminal on Chen Huijie's desk rang.

"What is it?" Chen Huijie picked up the phone and asked calmly.

The caller was a staff member from the Governor's Office.

Due to the sensitivity of Talulah's political identity.

Although Talulah was someone Chen Huijie personally brought back.

However, outsiders are unaware of the relationship between Talulah, Chen Huijie, and Wei Yenwu.

At most, I only know that Talulah and Chen Huijie are very good friends.

Therefore, the staff's address to Talulah is still simply that of the new leader of the Reunion Movement.

"Superintendent Chen, something terrible has happened! The new Chief of the Reunion Movement just fell from the Governor's Office and is in critical condition; they are currently treating him."

"What!"

Boom!

A thunderclap boomed outside the window, and the words of the Governor's Office's staff made Chen Huijie's heart skip a beat.

It was as if the scene from before was repeating itself; the hatred, pain, and helplessness of that time surged up all at once.

When Chen Huijie arrived at the hospital, Talulah was still in the emergency room undergoing resuscitation.

Chen Huijie looked somewhat pale, but she calmly inquired about the situation from the medical staff:

How is Talulah doing?

"The patient's condition is very bad. She suffered a severe impact to the brain, resulting in a fractured skull, and there are also signs of poisoning on her body."

"The toxins damaged her major organs, further aggravating her symptoms."

"What kind of poison is it?!" Chen Huijie asked anxiously.

"It might be a nerve agent... We'll have to wait for the test results to be sure. However, the situation is not optimistic, so please be prepared."

Have we reached the point where we need to prepare ourselves mentally?

Is Talulah about to die at any moment?

Chen Huijie was as white as paper, and her hands trembled slightly.

The company representatives who had arrived early saw that Superintendent Chen of the Lungmen Guard Department had an expression even uglier than a dead horse.

They all sensed that a huge problem was about to befall them.

They used to think that Chen Huijie and Talulah being together was all arranged by the Governor's Office.

However, it seems that Chen Huijie and Talulah have a good personal relationship.

Although they didn't kill Talulah, who can guarantee that the Lungmen Guard Department won't cause them trouble in the future?

"Superintendent Chan, we understand your feelings for your friend, please calm down."

The pregnant representative wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and advised Chen Huijie to calm down.

Chen Huijie turned around in shock and anger, grabbed the other person by the neck, and slammed him against the hospital wall.

Chen Huijie gritted her teeth and looked at him, her expression filled with sorrow and resentment:

"What did you do to Talulah?"

The man being choked struggled violently, his eyes filled with fear and panic. The police officers who came with Chen Huijie saw this and rushed forward to pull Chen Huijie away.

"Commander Chen! Calm down!"

However, Chen Huijie used brute force to grab the other person's neck tightly, and even dozens of people couldn't pull them apart.

They kept choking the heavily pregnant company representative until she fainted.

After doing all this, Chen Huijie turned to look at the other company representatives with a menacing expression, as if she wanted to devour them:

"Tell me, what did you do?"

However, just as Chen Huijie was about to target the other representatives, Wei Yenwu, who had just arrived, stopped her:

"Chen Huijie, calm down. Things are probably not as simple as you think."

"Talulah's fall was not caused by them."

Upon receiving news of Talulah's fall, Wei Yenwu, like Chen Huijie, panicked.

But Wei Yenwu is, after all, quite old, and has weathered many storms.

While Chen Huijie was still flustered and rushing to the hospital, he had already begun investigating the matter.

Although the consultation meeting room is not equipped with listening devices in principle.

But whether or not Wei Yenwu's Governor's Office had listening devices, wasn't it ultimately up to him to decide?
