I'm just a trainee police officer. I don't really want to solve the case.

Professor Yin felt that his mind was in a mess, like a tangled ball of thread. He couldn't make sense of it for a while, so he decided to go eat something first.

"Come on, I'll take you to eat something." Professor Yin suggested.

"Okay, where to go?"

At the mention of food, Su Xiaoxiao immediately perked up. She had only eaten a few bites in the bureau that morning and was already hungry.

Her principle has always been that only when you are full can you have the energy to work, and she feels that delicious food can sometimes inspire her and open her mind.

The place Professor Yin took her to was not far from the Bar Association, only a ten-minute walk away.

It is a pedestrian snack street.

The pedestrian street is very wide. As it is close to the New Year, a long row of simple sheds have been set up in the middle. The red sheds look very festive, and the sign reads "Spring Flower Market".

Su Xiaoxiao then remembered that this year's New Year's Day and Spring Festival were very close, with a difference of less than twenty days.

She saw that many stall owners had already started displaying New Year flowers on their stalls. Not only that, there were also many stall owners selling snacks.

"It's so lively!" Su Xiaoxiao walked over to the stall and reached out to pick up a string of candied haws.

Nowadays, the candied haws have mutated. Many fruits can be made into the shape of candied haws. The one she picked up is actually a mixture of candied grapes and candied strawberries. It is red and green, and looks very pleasing to the eye.

"It's not very lively today. The flower market will officially start tomorrow." Professor Yin smiled and shook his head. This little policewoman still has a bit of a childish mentality.

Professor Yin took her to a snack bar located in the middle of the pedestrian street. The storefront was not big, and there were only seven or eight tables inside. It sold braised food, and it was said that the braised noodles here were the best.

"Professor Yin also likes to come to a small restaurant like this?"

Su Xiaoxiao asked with a smile. This store reminded her of her own fried noodle shop. It gave her a very familiar feeling.

"Actually, if you want to eat delicious food, it has to be a small restaurant like this. The food in those big restaurants is indeed exquisite, but it lacks a bit of the flavor of life after all."

Su Xiaoxiao agreed with this point. The snack bar also has a second floor, which is a partition.

The shop owner led them upstairs and seemed to be very familiar with Professor Yin. He asked, "Still the same as before?"

Professor Yin nodded and pointed at Su Xiaoxiao, "Give her the same one."

The shop owner nodded and went downstairs. It was still early, past ten o'clock, and many shops were not open yet. They were the first batch of customers.

Su Xiaoxiao looked down through the glass and saw that there were not many pedestrians on the pedestrian street at this time.

Looking at the long row of bustling sheds, imagine how lively the scene would be in the afternoon or evening with the lights on.

The braised rice noodles were served quickly. It was white rice noodles with a layer of braised flavor, mainly beef, such as beef brisket, beef tripe and beef balls, with green leaves underneath and a spoonful of red chili oil poured on it.

It smells so good, it makes me salivate just by looking at it.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate to pick up the chopsticks and started eating, chatting with Professor Yin while eating.

"Professor Yin, how did you know this place?"

"I also found out about it by accident." Professor Yin ate very quickly and finished the bowl of noodles in no time.

He put down his chopsticks and slowly introduced himself to Su Xiaoxiao.

“Although this place is now the center of Xicheng District, it was a very remote place many years ago. It was only in recent years that the real estate industry has taken off and the city has developed rapidly. The previously remote places have now become prosperous areas.

Several years ago, Jiang City was still a small city with two districts, East and West. Later, some surrounding counties were also incorporated into it, and it was redivided into three districts.

Do you know why I come here sometimes?"

"I don't know." Su Xiaoxiao shook her head.

“The orphanage where I stayed as a child was right down this street.”

That's not right. Su Xiaoxiao remembered that she had checked the address of the original welfare home, and it was not on this street, but in a more remote location.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's puzzled look, Professor Yin explained, "The address you see is where we moved to later. In fact, the welfare home has moved three times.

When I was a child, the welfare home was on this street. Later, someone took a fancy to this piece of land, bought it and paid compensation to the welfare home.

Dean Zhou was on the verge of bankruptcy at that time, so with the money, he rented a new house in a more remote location.

If it weren’t for this, the welfare home would have closed down long ago and wouldn’t have been able to operate for so many years.”

So that’s how it is, Su Xiaoxiao nodded.

This location is now the center of Xicheng District. The planners were very visionary. This pedestrian street connects several commercial buildings and business is very prosperous.

Whether you are shopping or working nearby, you can find your favorite food here.

Looking at the increasing number of pedestrians outside, Su Xiaoxiao felt something in her heart.

"Professor Yin, do you think there is a possibility that if Saturday's final target is you, then is it possible that he would choose this place?"

Su Xiaoxiao pointed to the pedestrian street. The death notice was tomorrow, and the Spring Flower Market would open tomorrow. It was also the weekend, so there would be a lot of people here. If some chaos happened here, the consequences would be disastrous.

Moreover, the pedestrian street was sunken one floor, and although it was open-air, it could only be accessed by walking down the stairs on both sides. In other words, there was no other escape route, only one entrance on each side.

If chaos occurs and a stampede occurs, it will be a big trouble.

After hearing what Su Xiaoxiao said, Professor Yin's expression suddenly became serious. "Why do you think so?"

"Look, I've always felt that this matter was a little odd. This death notice is different from the previous ones. Saturday already knew that we were investigating him. This might be his only chance to deal with you. He gave me the feeling that he wanted to go all out.

The warm-up last night was clearly for you to see, unlike before when he was hiding it. So, I think that he can't just encourage the criminals' families to deal with the two judges later, he should still deal with you.

The welfare home is the place where you first had a grudge against each other. If he had not snatched your opportunity, perhaps he would not have suffered so much.

Since he blames all of this on you, if he only has one chance left, is it possible that he would think that your feud should end where it began?"

"What you said makes sense. Let me think about it." Professor Yin rubbed his eyebrows.

He waved his hand and asked the store to bring two drinks, which were also homemade.

Professor Yin said that this drink is very delicious and can refresh the mind, so he asked Su Xiaoxiao to try it.

He picked up the cup and clinked it with Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao took a sip. It had a sweet and sour taste with a hint of mint. It tasted really good.
