"I knew it! How did Bei Yutang get such good luck to have such a fun and well-behaved younger brother like Xiao Chunan? Turns out he was adopted from Turing Tower."

In the past, Chu Yinan wouldn't have corrected him, but now he reluctantly did so:

"It's foster care, not adoption..."

Foster care is just temporarily entrusting someone else to raise the child, although most of the children who go out never have the chance to return.

"Foster care would be even easier. Can we change it to Xiao Chunan's home?" Jiang Xuanya kissed Xiao Chunan's forehead.

“These things aren’t so easy to change.” Li Xuan’en didn’t want her daughter to so carelessly steer clear of the important matter. She carefully asked Xiao Chunan, “After you tell the AIs at Turing Tower, will they really protect you? This kind of thing can be a big deal or a small deal, and it can’t be ignored!”

"Well, I'll ask Sister Qilin and the others how they're going to handle this later. You don't need to worry about me." Chu Yinan thought of another suspicious point. He had been feeling a little guilty just now, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Aunt Xuan'en, how did your husband know I was at your house?"

Chu Yinan felt he should probably change his name sometime, perhaps to Wang Chu Nan...

Hearing Xiao Chunan's tone, Li Xuanen also felt something was off, and inexplicably felt a sense of immorality. She explained:

"He doesn't know. He just saw you when you came to our house last time, so he called to mention you... Xuan Ya, why isn't your progress bar moving? There's still 3% left. Let me try again. There should still be some left. I just want to help you fix this matching loophole as soon as possible."

Let's do the full set in Chapter 18?

The progress bar was still 3% away from being sucked up, and they didn't know what was going on. However, Chu Yinan didn't join the discussion. Instead, she went to the balcony and called the AI ​​sisters.

At this point, he started to miss home. The main reason was that he had all the projection equipment at home, so apart from secret communications, he didn't need to make many phone calls anymore. He could just call out and the AI ​​sisters could project into his home.

Aside from the inability to engage in close contact, everything else is convenient.

The call was answered instantly the moment it was dialed.

"Hey, hey, hey, Fu Xi is in trouble. Someone is trying to ambush me. It's Jiang Jinxiang, the one who was kicked out with Jin Genjun before."

Chu Yinan recounted the phone call to Fu Xi, and of course, he didn't forget to explain for Aunt Xuan En, saying that she was innocent.

"That's how it is. What do I do now? They said they'd take me to meet someone, so there must be a spy or mole on the island, right?"

[Fu Xi: Of course there are. Industries with a strong public and media focus, such as entertainment, fashion, and news, will never lack crooked people.]

If it were up to us, we'd prefer to take you fishing.

"A sting operation?" Chu Yinan thought it made a lot of sense; you can't find anyone without a reason.

As long as he stays on the island, Chu Yinan has nothing to worry about.

[Qilin: But it's hard to imagine that they would call so directly like that. Is this exactly what they wanted?]

[Fu Xi: That's not hard to imagine, is it? The document prohibiting AI from interfering with residents' communications was issued several years ago. I guess the other side felt that communication was very secure. And how could Jiang Jinxiang have imagined that the little boy they wanted to catch was currently on top of his wife?]

[Qilin: Should I change my name to 'Wang Chunan'?]

Chu Yinan never expected that Sister Qilin would think the same way he did!

"Then what should I do? Please tell me the specific steps so I can pass it on to Aunt Hyun-eun and ask her for help."

[Qilin: Just get her to agree, then follow her arrangements. It's all minor issues. You can also have Lee Hyun-eun add a bit more drama, and tomorrow you should find an opportunity to go to the prosecutor's office with Shibuya Gyou to let others know you're with her.]

"Huh? It's already quite difficult for us to act together, how can we add more scenes? How do we do that?" Chu Yinan asked curiously.

[Qilin: I'll send it to you in a bit. By the way, your Aunt Liu has found the Tower. Heinrich won't be able to hold things off for long either.]

My girlfriend's father even bought me some time? That probably means he knows what's going on and wants him to go out and relax.

"I know, just tell them I went to find the female monster. No outsiders can go in there casually, and Aunt Liu can't find it either."

After ending the call, Chu Yinan switched the communication interface to Aunt Liu's contact interface. He had been in do-not-disturb mode for the past two days, rejecting all messages, so he naturally couldn't see any messages or messages.

However, Chu Yinan ultimately did not send a message, but instead confirmed the contents of the file that Sister Qilin had just sent.

"Have Sister Xuanya pretend to know this news and directly seek protection from the prosecutor's office, so that the person behind it won't stay calm, and also get some information from the prosecutor's office..."

Is this an opportunity to purge the prosecutor's office as well? It just so happens that I live with Prosecutor Shibuya, which is quite convenient.

My phone received another message; it was from the prosecutor.

[Shibuya Giri: I'm coming to pick you up, get ready.]

[Chu Yinan: Okay.]

Chu Yinan mentally organized the information, figuring that he probably wouldn't be able to finish the last 3% of the progress in one go today. He returned to Xuan Ya's bedroom.

In the bedroom, Jiang Xuanya and her daughter Li Xuanen were still discussing how to complete the final progress, and the focus of their argument, besides the posture, was also on who should come.

"Xuanya, you've already fed her, right? It's obvious you've finished all the progress you could provide. I'll help you with the rest! 3% won't cost you anything."

"Mom, what are you arguing with me about? This is my date assignment. How dare you try to get involved? I've already been generously letting you have your way for over half an hour, even though you're in pain."

"You know this is part of your date assignment? Then why did you drag me into the plating incident last time? Now you know it has nothing to do with me?"

After all, old ginger is spicier, and ripe peaches are juicier. Jiang Xuanya was speechless, completely stumped. It was indeed her fault, but there was nothing she could do about it.

The plating task specified that Lee Hyun-eun had to participate, so what could she do? If it only required her and Xiao Chunan, she wouldn't have had to go through all that trouble acting in the first place, and she even felt wronged!

Taking advantage of her daughter's speechlessness, Lee Hyun-eun adopted a tone that conveyed "I won't take advantage of you," and said earnestly:

"It's not that I'm causing you trouble, but I think we can figure out how to get this to 100% complete. Even though it's just a loophole in the matchmaking system, it's all going to be fixed anyway, so wouldn't it be better to have a perfect ending? Let's think long-term instead of focusing on that 3%?"

The door wasn't closed tightly, just ajar, and Chu Yinan heard everything clearly from outside.

Isn't this topic moving a little too fast? It started with arguing about 3% progress, and then it turned into discussing how to achieve a perfect completion?

Chu Yinan is now very worried that Sister Xuan Ya might use the excuse of "wanting to see what other missions are coming up" to delay him again until a new mission is available.

That would be horrible!

Because the prosecutor was coming to pick him up, Chu Yinan couldn't continue to "have his ears over the wall," so he took the initiative to go in. He originally just wanted to stand by the bed and finish what he was saying, but as soon as he got there, Sister Xuan Ya picked him up.

"Sister Xuanya, Aunt Xuanen, I just told Fuxi and the others that they want your help with some details. They want to use me as bait to catch a fish. They will send you a message later."

Lee Hyun-eun was very worried about this, but with AI as a safeguard, she could feel a little more at ease. Moreover, she didn't want Xiao Chunan to be watched by secret eyes like this, so it was definitely better to get it over with as soon as possible!

"It's possible, but how do we do it?"

"After Mr. Jiang calls again, Aunt Hyun-eun, just do as he says, and add a few more details. Sister Xuan-ya, go to the prosecutor's office to report the case, and then Aunt Hyun-eun, tell Mr. Jiang that Sister Xuan-ya reported the case after learning about it. The AI ​​will send you more details."

Lee Hyun-eun understood from this that it meant she was going to put on an act...

"Alright, I never expected that after so many years, I would receive a script under these circumstances again."

"Well, let me say thank you for your hard work first. The prosecutor just said she's coming to pick me up, so I have to get ready to go!"

"Okay, then, are you coming to play again tomorrow? We're still a little behind on our date."

Chapter 19 Contact

Shibuya arrived quickly, and Chu Yinan, who was already prepared, said goodbye to Jiang Xuanya and Li Xuanen before getting into the car and going back.

This time, the return route doesn't seem to be going back to Shibuya Yi's temporary apartment; Chu Yinan guesses that it's probably going to her house.

The car was filled with a variety of music. Chu Yinan discerned that it seemed to be some old-fashioned game background music, with an occasional soothing and hypnotic tune followed by "The Song of the Chocobo".

"Have you done what you were supposed to do? That mysterious thing you were talking about?" the female prosecutor suddenly asked.

"It's almost done, just a little bit more, but it's practically finished."

Chu Yinan was actually quite worried about whether the matter could be resolved smoothly; her level of concern was extremely high.

He initially thought that if he tried all the different feeding methods listed, he would at least make 80 or 90% progress. But he ended up chewing everything he was supposed to, and still didn't even reach the passing grade.

"That's good. Is there anything you'd like to eat later? If you don't tell me, I really won't know what to make. I feel embarrassed that I always make the same few dishes for you."

"Miss Shibuya, you're too kind. I'm just a freeloader, how could I let you feel embarrassed?" Chu Yinan took out his phone, opened the notes app, and sent the recipe that the female demon had given him to Shibuya Yi: "I've sent you the recipe, so you won't feel embarrassed now."

Shibuya found his reaction quite amusing. Most people would reply, "I'll just eat whatever," but this little guy had prepared a whole menu for you.

It is evident that his family has gone to great lengths to cultivate his eating habits, whereas ordinary families usually eat whatever they feel like.

"Okay, I'll make it for you when we get back."

"By the way, Ms. Shibuya, how about I go with you to the prosecutor's office for the morning tomorrow? Just to see if I can be of any help."

"You can go have fun if you want, but you probably won't be involved in any cases anymore. I've been transferred to the Special Investigations Department, and I'm not directly handling frontline cases anymore."

Chu Yinan wasn't particularly familiar with the internal structure of the prosecutor's office, nor did he know what this special investigation department did, but he subconsciously felt that not being able to handle cases was tantamount to being demoted.

"Could it be because you offended your colleagues about something that happened before, and were reassigned to a smaller department?"

"In terms of salary increase, it's not small, is it? The Special Investigation Department is responsible for monitoring other departments. The authority written on paper is very large, but the scope of action is limited. It wouldn't be wrong to call it a demotion."

During a break in the chat, Chu Yinan used the AI ​​Sister search engine to ask Tong. Although Valentina complained, "Don't ask me for information that can be easily searched," he still gave her the answer.

Special Investigation Department, Anti-Corruption Department, impressive.

To be honest, Chu Yinan was quite happy with the prosecutor's situation. The pay was high and the workload was light, which was great. It was much better than before when she was in the big office, where she was constantly suspicious of her colleagues and they would try to sabotage her when she was on the scene.

Taking it easy is the true meaning of life!

However, I might have to trouble her again and keep her busy.

----------

Shibuya Giri's home isn't in a remote location, but it is indeed a bit far from her workplace!

Chu Yinan was initially quite curious about what her home looked like, but after going inside, she realized that the temporary apartment was decorated according to the layout of this home.

In comparison, the temporary apartment was just a bit cramped and had fewer rooms.

But the only constant was that underwear was indeed scattered everywhere. Her house had two living rooms. One was on the first floor, used for receiving guests. It was clean and tidy, but she probably didn't use it herself. It was just for show when friends came over. The other living room was on the second floor, which was where she usually used it. Chu Yinan could find a pair of stockings or underwear in any seemingly ordinary corner.

"Ms. Shibuya, don't you keep guest rooms here?"

"The living room on the second floor used to be the guest room, but it's no longer needed, so it's been converted into a living room. If any friends come over, they can sleep with me if it's convenient. If not, I'll rent a guesthouse. It won't make much of a difference... I'm going to cook now. You can play by yourself for a while."

The striking female prosecutor with long gray hair took off her coat and watch, put on a white apron, and then busied herself in the kitchen.

The kitchen was bigger this time, and Chu Yinan had room to help, but the female monster replied to his message, so Chu Yinan decided to wait a while before going into the kitchen.

[Minagawa Izumi: You're running away from home way too often... What's wrong this time?]

[Chu Yinan: We had a big fight, and I'm upset, so I ran away. Can you come to Glory Island in a few days? I'll probably be busy for the next two days.]

Chu Yinan was worried about how to explain the specific conflict to the female demon, because explaining it would make it seem like he was being pretentious and making a fuss. But the only thing Chu Yinan could say for sure was that he really couldn't make sense of this matter.

But the female monster, as if she could read his mind, skipped over this most suspicious point without asking any further questions.

[Minagawa Izumi: Can you still be busy even when you're running away from home?]
