Infinity: 198 Threatened Cooperation
Added 2025-09-04 02:44:52 +0000 UTCA day later, in the mayor's office. Warren sat in his seat, puffing on his cigar and exhaling cigarettes. "Do me a favor."
Chen Luo sat in front of him, also smoking a cigarette. The two of them worked together happily. Due to the rapid drop in crime rates during this period, coupled with the influx of investment, his political achievements were remarkable. He only needed to raise some money to get a seat in the Senate. The situation was promising. This was the perfect example of collusion. "What's it?"
"There's a reckless reporter approaching my daughter, trying to investigate us. Get rid of him!" Warren's eyes were filled with hostility. If such negative information were exposed, it would do him no good.
"Your daughter is quite beautiful, and she's certainly a magnet for attention." Chen Luo's eyes lit up. "Aren't you afraid I might target your daughter?"
Warren laughed at this. "I believe you're a smart man. As for my daughter, you can pursue her if you want, but if you're just trying to play with her, then stop your foolish thoughts."
"I'll get rid of that guy. What's the reward?" Chen Luo blew out a smoke ring. "You know my rules. I never do things for free."
"Do you want to develop the European market?" Warren asked, unfazed by the other party's attitude. On the contrary, it reassured him. There's no such thing as a teammate who has no regrets. It's more about equal exchange, and such business exchanges are more reassuring. Pieces don't fall from the sky, and any reasonable person knows that.
"Just tell me, what's the benefit?" Chen Luo didn't want to play tricks; it was unnecessary and meaningless.
"Sanlian Pharmaceuticals has arranged an investment inspection. This time, I'm giving you the task. You'll receive them. Whether you can establish a relationship with the Travis family depends on you," Warren said. He wasn't sure about it himself, but he was confident in encouraging others to do it.
"Haha, that's not a good thing. I'll help you solve the problem. You can find someone else for this. I'm not interested. Remember, you owe me a favor." Chen Luo said, and then he left the office. Is that a good thing? Ha, he wouldn't let anyone lead him around.
Warren's eyes darkened. At least Chen Luo was a qualified partner, but not a good subordinate. He was difficult to control. But it didn't matter. As long as he could achieve political success and help him advance, he would give anything, even his daughter.
Catherine was a teacher at Raccoon City Elementary School. Her job was easy, and she was sweet-looking and had a great figure. Perhaps she inherited her model mother's genes, so she had a great figure. However, she had a bit of a high opinion of herself and looked down on ordinary people. She only admired talented people.
Recently, Catherine had chatted with a pen pal online. He was said to be a reporter from Bibisi, an intern reporter, and a reporter who had reported on the battlefield. Such a man immediately piqued her interest, and they soon started chatting. Recently, he came to Raccoon City to find her. They met and felt good about each other, and there were signs of a growing relationship.
However, although Catherine was interested, she was no fool and would not sleep with anyone so easily. She was interested in strange stories, not the identity of a reporter.
With the help of his subordinates, Chen Luo quickly found reporter Ben in the restaurant.
Pulling out a chair and sitting down, the underlings quickly chased everyone out of the restaurant, offering them money to eat elsewhere. The place was immediately cleared.
A underling arrived with a serving of French fries, grilled chicken, and a bottle of Coke.
Chen Luo took a sip of the Coke, then picked up the fried chicken wings and began to eat. "Your name is Ben, right? I need your help with something. After I'm done, I can give you some inside information about the mafia's collusion with the senator. I just don't know if you have the guts."
"What do you need me to do for you?" Ben surveyed the restaurant, knowing he couldn't afford to offend the man before him. This reckless thug could easily take his life.
"Very good. For those who don't cooperate, the end result is often being poured into cement and dying a painful death. Do you want to be a hero, or just another wealthy, ordinary person?" Chen Luo quickly finished his fried chicken and lit a cigarette. Cigarettes with Coke? It felt a bit strange.
"What do you mean?" Ben snapped in a stern voice, a little flustered.
Chen Luo held out a piece of paper. "You cheated and replaced your best friend as Bibisi's intern reporter. I'm sure you haven't forgotten. Okay, enough rambling. I have tons of dirt on you. If it gets out, your enemies will kill you in a heartbeat. Now, just do me a favor and disguise yourself. Unmask your scumbag self. I'm going after Katherine, and then you can get out. Afterward, I'll give you the bribery information on the New York City congressman. You can do whatever you want with us. No one will know about our deal. Do you understand?"
Reporter Ben broke into a cold sweat. Looking at the paper before him, he knew he'd met a tough opponent. The best, most sensible solution was cooperation! "Will you keep your promise?"
"You and Katherine were working together just to get the information on Warren, weren't you? You want fame, and getting a congressman would be even better. Okay, here's what you're going to do next. Do you understand?" Chen Luo handed him another piece of paper and asked him to read it.
"Do I have a choice?" Reporter Ben took out a cigarette, lit it, smiled wryly, and began to read.
Soon, the two sides reached a cooperation, which was a mutually beneficial cooperation. One thing to know is that they are not good people. This can only be said to be a collusion at best. There is no good person. Good people can't survive in the capitalist world. Good people don't live long, and the evil will last for thousands of years!
