Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening. At this moment, in the security department, Lu Yu stretched massively, leaving from in front of his desk, looking incredibly relaxed.

After battling in the game all day, Lu Yu felt a sense of laziness throughout his body.

He lifted his gaze and looked ahead, only to see that the once bustling and noisy Victory Group had now become quite silent. After glancing at the time on the wall, Lu Yu realized it was already eight in the evening, a full hour and a half past standard quitting time!

"Looks like games are really a time-killing artifact, can't believe it's this late already."

After glancing at the time on the wall, Lu Yu shook his head helplessly and said calmly, while picking up his car keys, heading directly into the elevator, heading towards the underground parking lot of Victory Group.

As the largest company in LA City, Victory Group's work efficiency was absolutely top-notch, so it was rare for anyone to work overtime so late. Thus, at just around eight o'clock, the Victory Group was already empty and engulfed in silence.

Taking the elevator down to the underground garage of Victory Group, the once densely packed parking lot now appeared empty. Coupled with the dim environment of the parking lot, at first glance, it strangely gave a sense of constriction.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yu didn't have much of a reaction. At this moment, he slowly took out his car keys and pressed the unlock button.

Beep!

At the instant he pressed the unlock button, in the distance, the headlights of Lu Yu's Bentley flashed instantly.

Watching the headlights flash, Lu Yu smiled slightly and stepped towards his Bentley.

Step!

And at that moment, a soft sound instantly spread from the empty, dark underground parking lot, sounding quite abrupt, as if it were the sound of footsteps.

Hearing this sound, the smile on Lu Yu's face suddenly vanished. He stopped his footsteps, revealing a hint of alertness.

Because from that single soft sound, Lu Yu sensed a trace of murderous intent!

"Lu Yu?"

Just after Lu Yu felt this murderous air, a muffled voice came from behind him, echoing in the empty underground garage, sounding quite abrupt!

"It's me!"

Hearing this, Lu Yu replied in a steady voice without turning around, just facing away from the owner of the voice behind, appearing very calm.

Even without turning back, Lu Yu could be sure that the man behind him was undoubtedly Zhou Huchen!

Zhou Huchen kidnapped Li Moxuan in the morning, just to find out who the seller of the Rope-Curled Sword was.

Though Li Moxuan was the leading figure in the antiquities auction business in LA City, after all, he was just an ordinary person and couldn't withstand Zhou Huchen's severe interrogation. To confess was very normal.

So, Zhou Huchen suddenly appearing here to find him didn't surprise Lu Yu in the slightest!

"You don't seem surprised by my appearance!"

At this moment, Zhou Huchen stood behind Lu Yu, clenching his fists, speaking coldly, as if a fierce tiger eyeing its prey, exuding a chilling murderous air!

"Li Moxuan's disappearance this morning, was that your doing?"

In his speech, Lu Yu spoke calmly: "From the moment Li Moxuan disappeared, I knew you would come looking for me sooner or later!"

The calmness in Lu Yu's voice gave an extraordinary sense of poise!

"You are very smart!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huchen said: "Now I give you a chance, just tell me who handed you the Rope-Curled Sword, and I might spare your life!"

In Zhou Huchen's view, the Rope-Curled Sword was entirely handed to Lu Yu by someone else, for him to auction at the Ink Pavilion!

In Zhou Huchen's eyes, Lu Yu was merely a security department manager at Victory Group, incapable of killing Gu Yanzhou.

Therefore, behind Lu Yu, there must be another mastermind!

"Who handed me the Rope-Curled Sword?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's voice carried a hint of laughter, and at this moment, the corners of his mouth curled up as though he had heard a joke, with a tone revealing uncontainable amusement.

"That's right!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Zhou Huchen's voice was low as he said: "Now reveal your mastermind, and I will spare your life!"

Upon saying this, Lu Yu smiled slightly and immediately said: "If I say, I have no mastermind, Gu Yanzhou was killed by me, would you believe it?"

"What arrogance!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Zhou Huchen's impatient temper exploded instantly, his fists tightly clenched, his eyes revealing a hint of killing intent: "Since you are unwilling to speak, I will use my way to make you talk!"

As he spoke, Zhou Huchen stomped hard on the ground with his right foot, his body rushing towards Lu Yu like a cannonball, delivering a vicious punch towards Lu Yu's back!

"Resorting to action at the slightest disagreement"

Standing still, Lu Yu felt the surging wind on his back, laughing coldly as he said: "You really do live up to your name, as reckless as a tiger!"

Saying this, in an instant, Lu Yu twisted his hips, utilizing the power from his twist, delivering a powerful punch abruptly backwards!

Bang!

The collision of the two punches instantly echoed throughout the underground parking garage, its sound reverberating, making the already constricted parking lot feel all the more eerie!

At the moment of the punch collision, Zhou Huchen only felt a surging force coming through his arm, so strong that his body was forced to step back two steps, his eyes showing a hint of disbelief!

Now he couldn't believe that a mere security department manager would actually possess such fearsome strength!

"Do you believe now?"

After delivering the punch, Lu Yu stood motionless, his face showing a playful smile, looking at Zhou Huchen before him as he said: "Mr. Zhou Huchen!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huchen suddenly raised his head to look at Lu Yu, and at the moment of raising his head, he froze!

The young man before him was the one who led the clamor at last night's auction, leaving him in an awkward position!

"It's you!?"

Seeing Lu Yu before him, Zhou Huchen's eyes flared with anger, looking at Lu Yu with his speech already imbued with a trace of killing intent: "Was Gu Yanzhou killed by you?"

"Is it surprising?"

Upon hearing Zhou Huchen's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly, the corners of his mouth lifting, his face revealing a trace of a smile, as he said: "If Gu Yanzhou wasn't killed by me, how could the Rope-Curled Sword appear at the auction? President Zhou?"
