Chapter 489 Meeting with Paris and Negotiation
After entering the truth building, Lin Yu once again deeply felt how well Fu Luo was doing in the city that never sleeps.
As soon as the receptionist led him to the public elevator, she saw the special elevator next to him opened.
Inside, two managers of Truth Company, who seemed to have a high level of employment, hurriedly walked out. They had thin hair and were about forty years old.
Seeing Lin Yu standing at the door, the two of them hurried forward to greet him.
"Dear Lord Forpollo, please come this way!"
Lin Yu glanced at the nameplates on the chests of their suits.
A-3 and B-1 are already in the management level of department heads and project team directors, but in front of "Fu Luo", they appear so attentive and nervous, as if they are elementary school students meeting the school leaders. .
They even used the title "Your Excellency" - in the city that never sleeps, this is an honorific that is usually only used by commoners to address nobles and lower-ranking nobles to address higher-ranking nobles.
Although it is no longer so strict today, sometimes in order to express respect, the senior executives of the three major companies who do not have titles can also be used in this way...
However, being able to use this title still represents the high power and distinguished status of the person being addressed.
Lin Yu also maintained his reserve and nobility in Fu Luo's way, and nodded slightly.
He didn't know whether the two knew Fu Luo or how familiar they were with him, so Lin Yu didn't say hello to them at all.
Maybe it's not the same as Fu Luo's usual way of getting along with them...
Since he is now the "superior", he naturally does not need to explain to them what he does.
Lin Yu walked into the elevator under the leadership of the two people. As expected, the slightly indifferent attitude made the two truth company executives confused. After entering the elevator and helping Lin Yu press the floor button, they stood on their own. He stared at the wall of the elevator in the corner without saying a word.
Soon, the elevator reached the ninety-ninth floor and stopped slowly. The elevator door opened, revealing a spacious, carpeted and gorgeously decorated corridor.
This is more like the lobby of a luxury hotel than the corridor of an office building.
There is only one single office on the entire ninety-ninth floor, which belongs to the current actual helmsman of Truth Company and the man who stands at the apex of power among the kings and nobles of the Evernight City - Paris.
After the two executives entered this floor, the cautiousness on their faces became more and more obvious.
He led Lin Yu to the end of the corridor, where two uncles stood on the left and right in front of the heavy double wooden doors.
"Sir Forpolo, please wait a moment."
The A-3 on the left said, and then pressed the button on the side of the door.
"bite--"
The doorbell rang softly, and a moment later, a magnetic voice rang.
"Come in."
After hearing this, the two senior executives opened the heavy double wooden door for Lin Yu.
Lin Yu walked into it and saw the same office with extremely gorgeous furnishings.
Sofas, tea tables, curtains, carpets, everything is undoubtedly top-notch luxury goods.
In addition, there are many statues, paintings and other exquisite art collections displayed on the walls on both sides.
Lin Yu took a cursory glance and found that the style of many collectibles... was not very similar to what this world could possess.
After all, Stiller said that the world where the city that never sleeps is located has no sea.
But Lin Yu saw an oil painting of a sea monster.
Behind the huge desk facing the end of the door, a man wearing a bright orange casual suit sat behind, flipping through a... cookbook.
Lin Yu stepped inside, and the wooden door behind him slowly closed with a heavy muffled sound.
The man in the orange suit raised his head, and his gentle and elegant face, which looked like a handsome gentleman, showed an exaggerated and enthusiastic smile that was extremely inconsistent with his appearance.
"Ah haha, Mr. Forpollo—I've heard of you for a long time!"
"The greatest 'detective' in the city that never sleeps, a living legend, and the pinnacle of natural man's wisdom. When I meet him today, he truly deserves his reputation!"
Lin Yu looked at this man and smiled in return.
"President Paris, you are also a talented person."
Paris laughed again, showing eight white, hard and neat teeth.
This brightly dressed man stood up from behind his desk and walked to the sofa.
"Come and sit down, Mr. Forpollo!"
President Paris and Lin Yu sat on the sofa in the reception area. The two sat opposite each other across a terrazzo coffee table, and Paris waved.
Two maids dressed very conservatively and wearing full-face masks walked out of the small door hidden in the corner of the room and stood behind Paris.
"Water or tea?"
"Water will do."
Paris nodded: "Okay...but the water is orange water."
Lin Yu was a little surprised: "What... where is the tea?"
"The tea is orange tea."
Even if it was Lin Yu, he couldn't help but be stunned.
President Paris laughed again: "Ah haha, I never thought that the famous legendary 'detective' would show such an expression."
"Anyway, orange water would be nice."
Lin Yu said, Paris waved his hand.
"Did you hear that? Go get ready - be better, this is a very distinguished guest."
After Paris finished speaking, the two maids withdrew without saying a word.
He looked at Lin Yu, took out a fresh orange from the fruit plate on the coffee table, and then slowly peeled the orange peel.
"Okay, Mr. Forbolo, why did you suddenly come here?"
Lin Yu was not surprised to hear Paris get to the point.
Of course, he couldn't just say that he wanted to find the Nevernight Fire Music through Paris-that would be too suspicious.
However, Lin Yu had already prepared his words and very legitimate reasons.
He looked at Paris, knocked on the table with a smile, and said calmly: "Of course I came for compensation."
President Paris slowly peeled off an orange peel and tore off the connection, then stuffed the orange peel into his mouth and said with a smile.
"Compensation? I don't quite understand this, Mr. Forbolo."
Lin Yu looked at President Paris who was chewing the orange peel and crossed his legs.
"Don't play dumb, the fact that I contacted you first proves that I don't want to push the matter up, and I just want compensation, not revenge on you..."
Lin Yu leaned back and looked at President Paris-although the two were sitting on the same plane, at this moment Lin Yu seemed to be looking down at Paris.
"Paris, President Paris, Mr. Paris... When I went to the Despair Train before, the people you sent killed me on the train. How should this be handled?"
As he spoke, his tone became colder.
"Sending the leader of the Delta Group of the Security Department of Truth Company and the reorganized team, and even using the Wrathful Throne privately... Am I really a 'living legend' in your eyes? Did it take so much effort to kill me?"
"You are really, so brave!"
