Qin Huanyu rolled her eyes in annoyance, then grabbed Duanmu Ling's ankle and tickled the sole of her foot.

"Let's eat then... I asked you to look up that woman's information this afternoon, any results?"

"Of course, I'm a genius."

Duanmu Ling first shook her head smugly, then rubbed her stomach:

But I'm so hungry right now~~

"Okay, okay, let's go eat first, let's have a big meal."

Qin Huanyu pinched Duanmu Ling's cheek again and sat up from the bed.

She was indeed a little tired, but there are other ways to restore energy besides lying down and resting; a big meal can also replenish energy.

"Going to eat at Jim Kelly's buffet again?"

"do not want!"

For most working-class people, the mention of this buffet would make their mouths water, but Duanmu Ling showed a very disgusted expression:

“Every time you treat me to a fancy meal, it’s to Jin Kaili… The high-end food there is indeed delicious, but I’m already tired of it!”

"So you want to go eat there?"

Qin Huanyu stretched and began to put on her shoes:

"You can choose any restaurant you like, as long as it's in Baiguang City."

"I want to eat at this place!"

Duanmu Ling was clearly prepared; she immediately took out her phone, opened her photo album, and showed Qin Huanyu an advertisement image:

"This is also a buffet, and it's newly opened. Although the ingredients aren't as high-end as those at Golden Kelly, there are many interesting snacks, and the prices are much cheaper than at Golden Kelly!"

"【Three Little Sisters】? What a bizarre store name... 328 yen per person, that's actually much cheaper than Jim Kelly."

Qin Huanyu glanced at the advertisement twice and readily nodded:

"Okay, let's go eat at this newly opened restaurant."

After making their decision, the two left the apartment and hailed a ride-hailing car to go to the restaurant.

This new hotel is quite large, and unlike the Kin Kelly Hotel which mainly operates as an accommodation business, this hotel is purely a restaurant with three floors. After entering, you can sit anywhere, and each floor has thousands of dishes for guests to choose from.

After Qin Huanyu paid by card at the front desk, she entered the venue with Duanmu Ling.

"Wow, this is definitely more interesting food than what I've seen at Jim Carrey's!"

Duanmu Ling quickly grabbed a tray and started taking food from the food area. Before long, she found a table by the window with a full plate of snacks, sat down, and began to enjoy her meal.

Qin Huanyu also took some food and took the opportunity to observe the restaurant, comparing it with the one at Jin Kaili.

The differences are still quite obvious.

Jim Kelly is a traditional upscale restaurant with very high-quality ingredients, but the menu is not very extensive, consisting mainly of well-known dishes from various regions, though the taste is excellent.

The newly opened "Three Little Sisters" restaurant focuses on trendy snacks and niche dishes, bringing many delicacies that are usually only found at street stalls into the restaurant and replacing them with high-quality ingredients and beautiful plating.

Qin Huanyu found more than 20 kinds of plums in the dried fruit and snack area on the second floor of the restaurant, including bayberries, preserved plums, prunes, dried plums, love plums, and liuliu plums, which made her very happy.

Qin Huanyu loved eating all kinds of plums, and the taste of the nine-times-processed preserved plums helped her quickly regain her composure and exit the state of the Mathematical Demon Eye.

Seeing so many plums to eat as much as she wanted, Qin Huanyu didn't hesitate at all. She filled a plate with plums, returned to her seat, and began to eat facing Duanmu Ling.

"Here, the information you wanted about that woman is all in here."

Before they started eating, Duanmu Ling tossed Qin Huanyu a portable storage disk that could hold a mobile phone, and winked at her:

"So? Yu's mother, you really like her? That woman may not be as pretty as you, but her figure and temperament are amazing!"

"Eat yours!"

Qin Huanyu took the portable storage tray, and at the same time, scooped up a meatball with a spoon and flicked it, accurately sending the meatball into Duanmu Ling's mischievous mouth.

"Hmph, you really are feeling guilty, you must be... Ugh!"

Duanmu Ling quickly swallowed the meatball, wanting to tease Qin Huanyu a bit more, but then she saw that Qin Huanyu had already plugged the external storage drive into her phone and was looking at it, completely ignoring her.

She could only pout and make a face at Qin Huanyu before continuing to eat heartily.

While Qin Huanyu kept putting various plums from the tray into her mouth, she carefully looked at Yi Youyou's detailed information.

Although Duanmu Ling, that little brat, is often naughty and annoying, she does have some real skills. She not only found Yi Youyou's detailed resume from childhood to adulthood, but also found Yi Youyou's graduation photos from elementary school, middle school, and university.

Yi Youyou's air of a young lady from a wealthy family is not unfounded.

Although the Yi family is not particularly famous in the Holy Zhou Kingdom, it is an old noble family that has existed since the founding of the country by the first empress. Successive heads of the family have participated in the compilation and revision of historical records.

Chapter 77 Is that woman really that captivating?

Unlike traditional noble families who generally favored sons over daughters and encouraged having many children, the Yi family has always been a single-line family, where both men and women can inherit the family business.

The men would marry and have children as usual, not much different from other nobles, except that they would deliberately control the number of their children and never have more than one.

The woman then finds a husband to marry into her family, and the children retain the surname Yi, so the impact is minimal.

The current head of the Yi family, according to normal kinship, should be Yi Youyou's maternal grandmother, and also the president of Shendu University.

Yi Youyou's father was probably married into the Yi family, but he and Yi Youyou's mother must have encountered something shortly after Yi Youyou's birth, and their whereabouts are currently unknown. Moreover, the level of secrecy surrounding the incident must be extremely high, as even with Duanmu Ling's hacking skills and Qin Huanyu's access privileges, they could not find any information.

Yi Youyou was raised by her maternal grandmother from a young age. As the granddaughter of the president of Shendu University, she was definitely a standard genius.

Yi Youyou skipped grades in less than three years of elementary school, completing the six-year curriculum. She continued to skip grades in junior high, high school, and university. As a result, while people her age are just starting their master's studies, Yi Youyou has already graduated with a master's degree and has been working for almost three years.

Duanmu Ling also dug up many photos of Yi Youyou from the internet, including photos taken by the school when Yi Youyou participated in school activities when she was a child, as well as selfies she posted online after graduating and starting work.

Qin Huanyu only glanced at Yi Youyou's recent selfies, at most taking a closer look at her figure with a rigorous gaze.

Qin Huanyu focused her observations on the photos of Yi Youyou when she was a child.

There is a computer technology that can predict what a person will look like 10 years from now or 10 years ago based on a current photo. Qin Huanyu's brain computing power can also do this.

"This woman is definitely suspicious!"

After eating the various plums in the third large tray, Qin Huanyu finally made a discovery.

Based on a photo of Yi Youyou at age 4 participating in a poetry recitation at kindergarten, she deduced that Yi Youyou should be very good-looking when she grows up.

And that was indeed the case. From the age of 4 to 8, Yi Youyou's appearance in photos became increasingly beautiful, with bright eyes and white teeth, the kind of beauty that could bring ruin to a country.

But starting from some point when she was in her early teens, Yi Youyou changed.

It's not that Yi Youyou has become ugly, but rather that she no longer becomes more beautiful with age; her charm has been abruptly capped.

This is very biologically inaccurate. According to Qin Huanyu's calculations, if Yi Youyou had grown up normally, her appearance should be at least 95 points now, not just 80 points.

Therefore, Qin Huanyu strongly suspects that Yi Youyou's current appearance is fake, and that she has been living with a fake face since she was a teenager.

Of course, girls love beauty, and normally no one would worry about becoming more beautiful, so this behavior of hiding one's true appearance is very strange.

Qin Huanyu guessed that Yi Youyou must have encountered some kind of change when she was in her early teens, and her appearance changed significantly compared to before, becoming particularly eye-catching. She hid her true appearance to avoid various unnecessary troubles.

After all, they are a long-established noble family in the capital, so it's not surprising that they have some special methods.

After thinking about all this, Qin Huanyu's suspicion of Yi Youyou lessened considerably due to her professional habit, but she became even more curious about Yi Youyou's hidden true nature.

With that kind of figure and temperament, if you added at least a 95 out of 100 in looks, wouldn't that be...?

As Qin Huanyu fantasized, her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but bring her legs together and rub them against her black stockings.

This scene was witnessed by Duanmu Ling across the table, which surprised her greatly, and then she laughed out with schadenfreude:

"It's so rare to see you like this, Aunt Yu... Is that woman really that charming? That you could actually get so excited just by looking at her information... Ugh."

Qin Huanyu, seemingly a little embarrassed and annoyed, threw the meatball out again with her spoon, silencing Duanmu Ling before she could finish speaking.

"Two ladies."

The two were laughing and joking when a waiter from the restaurant suddenly came over, followed by a middle-aged man in casual clothes.

"what happened?"

Qin Huanyu and Duanmu Ling quickly straightened up and resumed their ladylike demeanor, offering elegant smiles and asking questions in return.

"Is such that."

The waiter first very respectfully presented a large gift bag:

"We noticed that this young lady seems to really like our dried plum snacks, so we've decided to give you a gift as a keepsake."

"Oh?"

Qin Huanyu glanced at the large gift bag and judged that the bag of snacks weighed at least 3 kilograms. Inside, there were more than a dozen small bags, each containing a type of plum, and the quantity was quite generous.

She didn't rush to take it, but instead looked at the middle-aged man behind the waiter:

“What a wonderful gift, anything else?”

There's no such thing as a free lunch. Qin Huanyu didn't believe she could get this gift for nothing; the restaurant must want something from her.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man spoke up:

"The young lady's intelligence is indeed as astonishing as her beauty."

"It's like this... Our store has only been open for a short time and we need a lot of promotion... Our store's security camera happened to capture you eating plums while pondering a question. We all think you look very charming and would like to use that in our store's promotion."

"If you agree to let us use your photo in our promotional materials, we will not only give you this great gift, but also make you our lifelong VIP, allowing you to bring up to three friends to dine in our restaurant for free once a week."

"Are you going to use the photo of me eating plums just now for advertising?"

Qin Huanyu agreed readily after considering it for less than two seconds:

"Sure, but you can't edit the photos however you want, and you absolutely can't use my photos for anything inappropriate, or don't blame me for not warning you in advance!"

After speaking, Qin Huanyu turned around slightly so that the waiter and the middle-aged man could clearly see the police pistol at her waist.

"Are you a police officer, miss?"

The middle-aged man was visibly startled, then suddenly seemed to remember something, his eyes lighting up:

"Could it be that you're Officer Qin, the one who released the case announcement a while ago? I was wondering when our Baiguang City got such a beautiful woman like you. Turns out you're the famous number one policewoman of the Holy Zhou Kingdom!"

"Haha, those are just empty names on the internet, you flatter me."

Qin Huanyu waved her hands modestly, but her eyes, which were already narrowed to slits, clearly showed that she was very happy with the praise.

After learning Qin Huanyu's true identity, the restaurant naturally stopped having any ulterior motives and even prepared a portrait rights authorization contract, handling everything very formally.

Chapter 78 Yet Another Woman

On the same evening, in the temporary resettlement area for residents of Hongmu Town.

After several days of treatment and observation, the residents of Hongmu Town have basically fully recovered and are able to resume their normal work and studies.

Lu Han, a mischievous child, is one of them; she will be going back to school tomorrow.

Unlike her usual gloomy face before school, Lu Han showed a hint of anticipation for school this time, but it was clearly different from the typical studious child.

She threw out all the textbooks from her schoolbag with a look of disgust, including her Chinese textbook, foreign language textbook, and art textbook, keeping only her math textbook, scratch paper for calculations, and calculator.

"what do you mean?"

Lu Han's mother pointed to the empty schoolbag and the textbooks scattered on the floor, her face full of doubt:

"Does your school only have math classes tomorrow?"

"No!"

Lu Han, with a very childish expression, put his hands on his hips and looked completely self-righteous:

"All I need to do is study math! These useless courses are utterly pointless! How am I supposed to become a superpowered being as cool as Officer Sister if I waste my time on them?"

"What? A superpowered person? I think you just want to get beaten up again!"

Lu Han's mother instantly flew into a rage. She was clearly not a good-tempered woman who could argue with the armed police. She grabbed the clothes rack, wanting to beat her daughter, but when she saw that Lu Han's leg was still in a cast, she could only pull her ear and scold her loudly instead.

. . . . .

The next morning, Qin Huanyu led a group to the Jin Kaili Hotel to pick up the archaeological team, only to discover that Yi Youyou was also going to the ancient tomb site that day.

Of course, Yi Youyou still didn't go into the ancient tomb herself, but only looked at it from the outside.

There was no problem with that; Qin Huanyu couldn't find a reason to refuse. She simply looked curiously at the new face beside Yi Youyou:

"Who is this?"

She was an unfamiliar woman not listed on the archaeological team's roster. She was dressed like an office lady in a shirt, pencil skirt, stockings, and high heels, with short, ear-length hair.
