"Alright." Yanqing sighed and conceded.

"Then in the next few days, I will take everyone to eat what they like, and the expenses will naturally be reimbursed by the Shence Prefecture."

"I just hope everyone doesn't overeat. If anyone gets sick while traveling in Luofu, Sister Qingzu will scold me."

"No way," March 7th scoffed.

"When I was rich, I ordered takeout every day and never got sick."

"Besides, in Pinocchio's dream world, you have no idea how much good food we can eat in a day."

"So it was just a dream," Yanqing advised.

"In dreams, you can eat anything and never get sick..."

"Besides, one should never become addicted to such a place of debauchery."

"Woo woo woo~~"

A bountiful creature pushed aside Yan Qing and ran off in another direction.

"?"

"What kind of wretch dares to act so arrogantly in the street?" Yanqing quickly drew his sword, intending to chase after the bountiful wolf and kill it.

"That's a dog," March 7th corrected.

Didn't you hear it barking?

"A cry?" Yanqing looked at March 7th with a puzzled expression.

"But the howl of a wolf-like, abundant, and wicked creature is probably like this too."

"No, why would Miss March think it's a dog?"

In response, March 7th recounted their experience to Yanqing.

Yanqing listened, seemingly lost in thought.

"You mean, just now a Cloud Cavalry officer let this dog, which even I think is a worthless creature, go free so easily?"

"That's strange. Logically speaking, even if it's a real pet dog, it should be reported to the Earth Balance Bureau if it has an unusual appearance."

"...Why not take him to the Earth Balance Bureau?"

"Do you remember what that Cloud Knight officer looked like?"

"Hilarious, they all look the same with helmets on," Yun Li said disdainfully.

"And you, why aren't you investigating? This matter could be serious or minor. If it really is a dog, that's fine, but if it isn't..."

"That means the Cloud Cavalry has been infiltrated too much."

Yanqing's expression was solemn, but more than that, it was filled with doubt.

"But if that sergeant really is an undercover agent, why would he risk taking action for such a tiny, wretched creature?"

"In most people's eyes, the life of a villain is far less valuable than that of an undercover agent."

"Is it possible that he actually has a crush on that old man?" Yan Huan analyzed seriously.

"Just think about it, this mature body, this forbidden age, and those incredibly alluring age spots...it's so captivating, isn't it?"

"?"

"Is this the XP that humans should have?" March 7th exclaimed in shock.

"You're lacking, you've seen too little." Yan Huan glanced at March 7 with a smug look.

"Haven't you heard of fetishism? Some people even enjoy picking up things from the toilet to eat during their dissertation defenses..."

"That's pica!" March 7th shouted.

"And how did you even get to know that kind of person?!"

Ignoring March 7's words, Yan Huan continued her analysis:

"The Cloud Riders, their lives are filled with boring battles and training. After accumulating pressure for a long time, it's understandable that they become a bit abnormal."

"Maybe they feel safer around older people, or they're just curious and seeking excitement?"

"Isn't it even a bit interesting?"

"So, he started keeping that stall owner as a mistress..."

“I think it’s probably, maybe, perhaps not like that,” Yun Li interrupted Yan Huan’s reasoned analysis.

"Since you've set your sights on that old man, then the possibilities between them are much greater."

"For example... that Cloud Knight officer is a relative of the old man, or they have some other connection."

"That's it!" March 7th thought of a breakthrough:

"Those Cloud Cavalry officers who were on duty nearby just now should know who that sergeant is, right?"

"They probably don't know," Yan Qing said calmly.

"There are actually no captains patrolling this area. The nearest captain is near Xuanye Avenue."

"Problems at the street stalls are usually judged by ordinary Cloud Cavalry, and serious ones will be escorted to the Earth Balance Division."

"?" March 7's eyes lit up:

"Doesn't that make it even more suspicious?"

"There's no work for that guy here, so what's he doing here?"

"But..."

She clenched the credits in her hand; the money felt warm from being held so tightly.

"Maybe he's a good person?"

"Regardless of the reason, this person definitely needs to be investigated," Yan Qing said helplessly.

"I will report this matter to the Shence Prefecture first. Before the results are in, let me take you all out for a meal."

Chapter 903 Say it again?

Food Ambassador Yanqing led the four of them on a leisurely stroll, queuing up to buy many snacks.

Yan Huan and March 7 chose junk food such as fried chicken, barbecue, hamburgers, and cola.

Dan Heng replied quietly, "I'll just eat what's served at the inn."

Yanqing felt a little embarrassed, so she bought some home-style dishes for Danheng in front of a restaurant.

Yun Li, on the other hand, did not choose anything.

"..."

What do you want to eat?

Yanqing turned around and frowned deeply at Yunli, who kept saying "I don't want to eat this" and "I don't want to eat that":

"Could it be that your taste is so discerning that it exceeds the standards of a normal person?"

"There really wasn't anything I wanted to eat along the way."

Yun Li waved her hand helplessly and said seriously:

Why isn't there a single candied hawthorn vendor on this street?

"Candied hawthorn?" Yanqing looked puzzled.

"Isn't that something for children to eat?"

"Besides, its main ingredient is hawthorn, so how can it fill people up?"

"It would be a real problem if you rotted your teeth."

"What's it to you?" Yun Li narrowed her eyes.

"In short, I just want to eat candied hawthorns. I don't want to eat anything until I see candied hawthorns."

"But we've walked around, and there's really nothing here that you want to eat."

Yanqing was speechless.

"Miss Yun Li, I remember Mr. Yan Huan mentioned earlier that you eat steamed buns for breakfast, right?"

"How about I go buy some more steamed buns? That will make do with what you have."

"No." Yun Li raised her chin and gave a soft snort.

"Breakfast is breakfast, and a happy meal is a happy meal."

“They all have their favorite foods, so I want to eat candied hawthorn too.”

"That's right, that's right," March 7th chimed in.

"I'm also craving candied hawthorns. Let's look for some more."

Helpless, Yanqing had no choice but to lead the group on a few more walks around the noisy streets.

With the martial arts ceremony approaching, there are many tourists, which has led to an increase in the number of people setting up stalls.

The variety of snacks has also increased.

The junk food that Yan Huan and March 7 love to eat can be bought almost anywhere on the street.

These candied hawthorns are actually quite rare.

Perhaps in recent years, fewer and fewer people enjoy this kind of classic cuisine, while more and more people love foods like milk tea and fried chicken.

Gradually, vendors selling candied hawthorns became increasingly rare in Luofu.

After searching for a long time, Yan Huan and San Yueqi had almost finished eating all the fried chicken and other food they were carrying, but Yan Qing still couldn't find any trace of the candied hawthorn.

"It shouldn't be."

Yanqing scratched his head and looked towards a secluded alley.

“In the past, there was always an old lady in that alley selling candied hawthorn, cotton candy and other local snacks.”
