Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 234 - 334: Post-Event Rewards and Lifetime Free Access!
Upon hearing François' words, Luo An was momentarily startled before he recalled the identity of the speaker: one of the well-known leaders of Columbia Pictures.
Luo An didn't have many thoughts on the idea of adapting his experience into a movie, except...
"There are a lot of details in this case, Mr. François."
Mona left to retrieve her computer from the monitoring room. Luo An glanced at her retreating figure and said with a smile:
"Those aren't something that a deputy team leader like me can decide on."
"No problem!"
Mr. François let out a chuckle after hearing Luo An's words and carelessly waved a hand, indicating it was a trifle.
It just so happened that Levis and the Chief of the FBI's Los Angeles Branch came over, and François directly expressed his thoughts and the difficulties Luo An mentioned.
Five hours later, after treating the injury on his arm, Luo An successfully sold the rights to his few days of case-solving experience for a post-tax sum of 1.83 million US Dollars.
The highest bid for a real-life story adaption in Hollywood in 2005 was only 1 million dollars, but Luo An managed to break this rule.
Of course, both parties also signed a heap of agreements.
One of Luo An's primary conditions was that the leading male actor in the film Columbia Pictures would shoot absolutely could not have a significantly lower attractiveness than himself.
The lawyers of Columbia Pictures: "..."
According to the agreement, the 1.83 million dollars belonged exclusively to Luo An. At the same time, Mr. François took out an additional 570,000 dollars and paid it to the other investigators involved in the case.
Not only this, but François also included Luo An in Columbia Pictures' list of lifetime VIPs, allowing him to receive gifts on every federal holiday and free entry to any movie shot by Columbia Pictures.
That evening, Luo An, grinning from ear to ear with a smile on his face, holding a check for 1.83 million dollars, checked into the temporary apartment prepared for them by the FBI's Los Angeles Branch for their Number Five investigation team.
The reasons for Luo An's happiness weren't just the 1.83 million dollars and lifetime VIP status.
The owners of the two Lamborghinis he had wrecked, a father and his son, were among the major shareholders of the renowned Hilton Hotels.
When Luo An went to express his apologies, the father brushed his son, who wanted to speak, to the side with a wave of his hand—no need to apologize, the FBI needn't pay damages. Then he handed Luo An a gold card, declaring that Luo An's stays at any Hilton Hotel within the federal territory were free for life!
Other magnates and guests at the banquet also handed Luo An a bunch of cards that offered lifetime discounts, practically covering all aspects of Luo An's future lifestyle.
Moreover, Luo An obtained group photos and autographs with the Hollywood male and female celebrities attending the banquet, including Will Ferrell; Johnny Depp; Ray Romano; Will Smith; Toby Maguire; Tom Cruise; Denzel Washington; Matt Damon; Jennifer Aniston; Nicole Kidman; Cameron Diaz; Naomi Watts...
Luo An was not a star-chaser, but these celebrity autographs were quite valuable, so when he returned to the temporary apartment, he bought an album and organized them all inside.
With that, this case was brought to a close. When Vireness in New York heard about Luo An's report, she first praised him for the splendid job, reproached him for being too reckless, and in a soft murmur firmly ordered that he mustn't do such things again. Then she waved her hand and granted Luo An and his three colleagues a four-day vacation.
"Hooray!"
In the apartment, Luo An hung up the phone after announcing the vacation and Reesi looked at Luo An with grateful eyes, while Reesi instantly raised her hands and jumped up:
"Thank you so much, Luo An! I just adore you!"
Out of the 570,000 dollars François paid out, Mona received 120,000, while Levis and Reesi each received 70,000.
Seeing the gleam in Reesi's eye, Luo An raised an eyebrow and said with a smile:
"It seems like you're not planning on coming back tonight."
"Correct!"
Reesi ran back to her room and in a blink of an eye, she changed into a nightclub-style outfit, laughing loudly:
"I love California! The girls here are all so enthusiastic and open, it's literally Heaven!"
With that said, like a whirlwind, Reesi opened the apartment door and rushed out.
Mona closed her room door somewhat speechlessly, while Luo An turned his head to look at Levis and asked with a smile:
"How about you? Levis, what are your plans?"
"I'm planning to call Yvonne right away, to have her fly over here."
Led grinned and gave Luo An a big bear hug to express his gratitude, then said:
"I haven't taken Yvonne out for a trip in a long time. Now that I've got $70,000 and a four-day holiday, of course I want to have a good four days of fun with Yvonne."
Mona, sitting on the sofa next to them, heard this and picked up a grape, popped it into her mouth and nodded in agreement. Led was indeed a family man.
Luo An looked puzzled and tilted his head asking:
"What about your son?"
Led waved his hand dismissively:
"Yvonne's sister lives in New York too, she can help take care of him!"
Luo An: "…"

There are many flights from New York to Los Angeles. Four hours later, Yvonne was on the plane to here, and Led had also rushed out of the apartment to start planning and looking for destinations for the upcoming holiday.
By now, night had fallen, but the remaining two in the apartment, Luo An and Mona, had yet to eat dinner.
After thinking it over, Luo An picked a gold card from one of the thirty-odd cards in his wallet for a well-known chain restaurant and took Mona to Hemosa Beach Pier.
Hemosa Beach Pier, located on the coast of Los Angeles at Hemosa Beach, attracts a multitude of tourists with its soft fine sands and year-round spring-like warm climate.
The Hemosa Beach Pier is a date haven for couples. Many nearby restaurants afford beautiful ocean views, where many couples enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner while admiring scenic beauty such as the sunset afterglow and the ocean beach.
Ding—
Clinking glasses with Mona, Luo An took a sip of red wine and then started to seriously take on the charcoal-grilled oysters on the table.
Watching Luo An insert a short oyster knife into the shell head, flip off the top shell, then lift the bottom shell and flip the oyster meat over with the knife, skillfully separating the oyster meat from the shell completely, Mona raised an eyebrow:
"Luo An, it seems like you really enjoy oysters?"
Swallowing down the oyster meat, Luo An raised an eyebrow:
"You know, I need to replenish my body. There's a big meal waiting for me tonight."
"Hmph."
After swallowing the food in her mouth, Mona gave Luo An a sideways glance.
After a long silence, she picked up the wine next to her, drained it in one gulp, and said in a low voice:
"Luo An, promise me you won't do anything this dangerous again, okay?"
Luo An's expression paused, he put down the oyster and took Mona's hand, his face serious as he said:
"Trust me, Mona, I care about my own life far more than you can imagine."
Luo An, who had been revived, would've taken off early if he didn't have the system, no potions, no absolute certainty about today's events.
Hearing Luo An's words, Mona's face was still filled with worry:
"But..."
"Trust me, Mona."
Luo An stood up, moved next to Mona, and hugged her, saying:
"Today's situation was exceptional, after all, you were also included in the bomb blast radius."
"…"
The man delivered a fatal strike, and the woman collapsed into his arms.
But half an hour later, at the Hilton Hotel not far from Hemosa Shaha Beach, the man was pinned down by the woman and couldn't get up for a long time…
Thus, for the entire night, the Los Angeles Branch of the FBI had prepared an apartment for Investigation Team Five, but it was empty.
Early the next morning, after pressing the doorbell for a long time and finally coming to his senses, Levis, with a frown, pulled out his phone and gave Luo An a call:
"Luo An! You guys aren't in the apartment at all, where did you go? I have some really great news to tell you!"
