The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1504: Chapter 595: Scripted Murder Mystery_2

”Mr. Zhou, I never question any of your decisions, but I believe, if you really want to acquire Galaxy Group, the approach and methods need careful consideration. Some tactics may achieve quick results, but they carry endless risks...”

Listening to Wang Ruixi’s subtle reminder, Zhou Wang remembered the command he had just given to Wang Ruixi, which was something like ”destroy the Li Family by any means necessary.”

Zhou Wang’s head felt somewhat swollen with pain.

In fact, at the current stage, he couldn’t directly get help from Wang Ruixi, making the previous phone call entirely a bluff. However, Wang Ruixi still seriously analyzed the feasibility of the whole matter, no matter how absurd Zhou Wang’s request seemed.

What made Zhou Wang grit his teeth was that acquiring a giant like Galaxy Group was nothing short of a pipe dream, but in Wang Ruixi’s words, it didn’t seem entirely impossible...

Indeed, compared to Cloud Group, which also dominates internationally, Galaxy Group seemed somewhat lacking.

At this moment, because the pain temporarily brought back some self-awareness, Zhou Wang could only be thankful that he hadn’t truly gained control of Cloud Group. Otherwise, due to a momentary loss of control, if he actually took down Galaxy Group, it would cause quite a stir.

Primarily because the Li family brothers were so proper that Zhou Wang would feel a bit guilty on his conscience.

Taking advantage of this rare clarity, Zhou Wang quickly interrupted Wang Ruixi, who was still analyzing how to gather funds.

”Old Wang, let’s not discuss this for now. I need your other advice...”

”Uh... Mr. Zhou, please go ahead.”

Wang Ruixi was a bit confused, as they were discussing such a serious and major matter as the ”acquisition of Galaxy Group,” yet suddenly Zhou Wang stopped talking about it.

However, long-standing habits allowed Wang Ruixi to quickly adjust.

”I’m currently in a bit of a mess... I can’t explain the reason, but I’m now in an uncontrollable state with many chaotic thoughts in my mind... But if I vent recklessly, I might hurt others... Hmm, I wonder if you understand?”

Zhou Wang tried his best to explain.

To people like Qiu Zeyu, Zhou Wang couldn’t speak, as his loss of composure appeared sudden. Yet, because of his relationship with Wang Ruixi, he didn’t have to worry about anything.

”Mr. Zhou, is it that your old ailment has flared up again?”

Wang Ruixi asked with a slightly nervous voice.

Zhou Wang recalled that, in Wang Ruixi’s eyes, he was someone who had experienced ”trauma,” which was also the main reason he concealed his identity after returning to the country.

At the moment, he went along with it and replied, ”It should be; my head does indeed ache a bit, but I’ve already taken medicine. Now, it’s just my emotions that are uncontrollable...”

”If that’s the case, Mr. Zhou, perhaps you could try venting your emotions in some reasonable ways... This way, you might manage not to harm others while calming your emotions.”

”Reasonable ways?”

Zhou Wang pondered.

”Yes, you mentioned you are on Ao Island, which might make things easier.”

Wang Ruixi calmly said, ”If you’re craving violence, you can go to a boxing gym. If you’re seeking entertainment, there are venues for low-cost but stimulating entertainments. If you’re longing for female companionship, as far as I know, Ao Island has many large spa centers...”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wang suddenly had an epiphany.

What Wang Ruixi said made sense!

If desires from the dark side can’t be suppressed, why not vent them in a way that causes the least harm?

Though he lost composure at the card table earlier, it was because he was around people he was close to and made the foolish choice of choosing a high-stakes table. If he went to play arcade games instead, even staying there all day and night, he wouldn’t actually lose much money.

Besides, as a shareholder, he would even receive some profit...

If he endured 24 hours like this, Zhou Wang felt his mental state would probably deteriorate, so Wang Ruixi’s suggestion was very reasonable. He couldn’t passively allow his evil thoughts to ferment; he should vent them under controlled circumstances.

”Alright then, Old Wang, talk later. Damn it, hanging up.”

Zhou Wang cursed as he hung up the phone, rose abruptly, and then waved without turning back.

It seemed there was no one around Zhou Wang, but just a few seconds later, Xiao Wang silently appeared behind him.

”Mr. Zhou?”

Xiao Wang asked, seeking instructions.

”Go make arrangements. I want to visit the best spa center on Ao Island and try their murder mystery role-play!”

Hearing Zhou Wang’s instructions, in fact, Xiao Wang was a bit perplexed.

Playing murder mystery at a spa center?

What’s the catch here...

This kind of thing had never been arranged by him, and it seemed to be the first time Zhou Wang had proactively made such a request, so Xiao Wang was understandably a bit at a loss.

But Xiao Wang still complied, immediately turning to call the contact of Li Youlong’s assistant he had just added.

Xiao Wang’s thinking was quite simple. He couldn’t tell directions on Ao Island, but as the local leader Li Youlong’s assistant, surely they were well-versed in such things, right?

...

”Is this it, the Eastern Imperial Castle?”

A dozen minutes later, Zhou Wang, now wearing sunglasses, stood beneath a hotel adorned with lavish decorations, including a statue of a Venus fountain at its entrance. He tilted his head and asked.

”Mr. Zhou, as per your request, if you want to experience a murder mystery play, the spa center of this Imperial Castle Hotel should be the best among the high-end spas...”

Beside him, a woman dressed in a high-end OL outfit, exuding mature charm and elegance, smiled and said.

She was one of Li Youlong’s assistants, who had followed along from the rooftop helipad to welcome Zhou Wang.

After Xiao Wang called, she hurried over as quickly as possible and brought Zhou Wang here.

Li Youlong didn’t show up and didn’t call Zhou Wang, perhaps trying to maintain some sort of tacit understanding to save Zhou Wang from embarrassment, a rather considerate gesture.

Even though she was a woman, Li Youlong’s female assistant was not the least bit embarrassed talking about such matters; instead, there was an air of being well-acquainted with it.

Understandably, she didn’t know how many clients she had to entertain each year on behalf of Li Youlong. Some clients liked the sophisticated, so they’d find young models or small celebrities as companions, or directly choose from the casino’s female public relations, but there were always those who preferred the vulgar...

Like Zhou Wang at this moment.

On this note, there was a sliver of regret in the female assistant’s eyes. This Mr. Zhou, young, wealthy, and handsome, why would he come to a place like this to find women? In her opinion, all Mr. Zhou had to do was beckon, and she’d be willing.

But she didn’t know that Zhou Wang wasn’t unable to find women; he was afraid that in his current unstable state, he might ruin someone...

However, if he came to these legitimate establishments, then Zhou Wang had no reservations.

Another advantage of being on Ao Island was that pure transactions of this nature weren’t illegal, similar to Hong Kong Island.

Of course, organized profiteering is certainly illegal, but on the surface, no operator would be foolish enough to tell others it was a setup by themselves.

Generally, it was tacitly acknowledged that this was a voluntary act between oneself and the practitioner, and nobody could do anything about it.

It was this ”gray area” that led to the development of different features unique to Hong Kong Island and Ao Island.

If it were dark tourism, it was generally assumed that on Hong Kong Island, one would experience the ”Phoenix in the Building,” while in Ao Island, it naturally involved interactive scenarios and role-playing in murder mystery plays.

Zhou Wang had also heard during casual conversations from Tang Yiming and others that his nephews, who were both wealthy and idle, had played in these aspects more than anyone. Not just domestically, they had even formed groups to visit Japan and Korea.

”Let’s go up.”

Perhaps sensing that his uncontrollable dark thoughts were about to be vented, Zhou Wang was instead surprisingly calm at this moment. After the assistant’s introduction, he gave a light command.

In his mind, he was also quite curious. What feature did the spa centers on Ao Island have that made them a gathering spot for countless seasoned players?
