When Feng Yi saw this face, a strange sense of familiarity welled up inside him, but he couldn't remember who it was. In the end, he could only fold the drawings neatly and carefully put them into his pocket.

"Yiyi, I'll take this blueprint first. Maybe we can find more clues in it!" Feng Yi said earnestly.

“I drew this for you in the first place, so don’t treasure it so much. If you lose it, I can draw another one. But now that Ning Zheng is dead and Poison Scorpion has escaped, is this all there is to it?” Yi Yi asked, frowning.

"Of course not. This enemy intelligence organization won't give up their plans easily. They'll definitely take action next. Let's just wait and see!"

Feng Yi's tone was filled with affirmation and expectation.

"Oh, by the way, who is that uncle next door? Judging from his demeanor, he's not an ordinary person!" Xin Yi asked casually.

Feng Yi was about to blurt it out when he suddenly remembered that Xin Yi might be an enemy agent, so he changed his words: "I'm not really sure either. It seems to be a big shot from the capital, but he didn't come specifically for this matter. He's just passing by. So, do you have any thoughts on this?"

"Given this man's high status, do you think enemy agents might try to assassinate him?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Yi was startled. Could it be that Xin Yi was planning to assassinate him?

"Probably not. He brought quite a few bodyguards with him; enemy agents certainly wouldn't dare to act rashly!"

Feng Yi feigned composure, but inwardly he wondered, if Xin Yi really was an enemy agent, why would she ask these questions? Did she want to get more information from him? Or did she want to use him to complete her mission? Feng Yi decided to continue observing Xin Yi to see if she was indeed an enemy agent.

Xin Yi was completely unaware that she had dug a huge pit for herself, and continued to analyze the situation seriously: "I think the enemy agents are very likely to take action, because they have suffered such heavy losses, they will definitely plan something big to boost morale and retaliate against us."

Seeing her serious expression, Feng Yi couldn't help but remind her, "Alright, these things are naturally handled by professionals. You're just an ordinary citizen, so don't try to be a hero."

Xin Yi understood that Feng Yi was worried about her safety, but she still couldn't help but explain, "I understand, but I want to do something."

Looking at Xin Yi's serious expression, Feng Yi couldn't help but wonder if he had misunderstood her, but he still said solemnly, "I know you care about the safety of the country and the people, but as a soldier, protecting the lives and property of the people is our bounden duty, not something for you to take risks for."

Feeling a little embarrassed by Feng Yi's words, Xin Yi got up to say goodbye: "Alright, since that's the case, I won't disturb your work any longer. I'll be going now."

After saying that, Xin Yi turned to leave the office, but suddenly remembered something and turned back to Feng Yi and said, "Oh, right, Sister Guihua just gave birth to a son. I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some gifts and also visit my goddaughter."

As she spoke, Xin Yi took out a set of car keys from her bag, handed them to Feng Yi, and said with a smile, "These are the car keys. The car is right in front of the police station. Now it's back in its rightful place."

Feng Yi took the keys, thought about it, and still felt uneasy, so he advised, "Why don't you drive there? It'll be more convenient that way."

Upon hearing this, Xin Yi immediately perked up: "Really? That's great! It's so much more convenient to drive myself!"

With that, Xin Yi excitedly picked up the keys, waved to Feng Yi, and said happily, "Thank you so much! I'm off now!"

Watching Xin Yi's departing figure, Feng Yi shook his head helplessly, wondering if this woman was pretending, yet she seemed very sincere.

Xin Yi drove to the supply and marketing cooperative. Since many items required receipts, she only bought a few packs of pastries after browsing around for a while.

Back in the car, Xin Yi sighed, "Sigh, these things are fine as gifts, but they're not really suitable for visiting children. If only my space could be opened up."

"That's right!" Xin Yi suddenly realized that she remembered feeling a warm current surge up her heart in the middle of the night while she was sleeping last night. Could this be because her spatial ability had awakened? Now that she thought about it, it was very likely. She just didn't know if the space could be opened.

Xin Yi closed her eyes, concentrated, and carefully sensed it. Sure enough, the space had indeed opened! However, the space was still in the awakening stage, and the unlocked space was not large.

She looked again and found that although there weren't many unlocked areas, they were filled with all sorts of food and daily necessities.

She secretly rejoiced, "Luckily, I was smart enough to pile up everyday items in the center of the space. That way, once the space awakens, everything will appear. But... without the core bead, how am I supposed to upgrade my abilities?! I'll have to keep getting struck by lightning!"

Xin Yi sat in the car, her mind constantly searching for items in her spatial dimension, thinking about what to bring to see the child.

Finally, she chose two cans of brown sugar, six cans of milk powder, four sets of clothes for the newborn baby, a large piece of cured meat, and a bag of apples.

This should be enough. Any more would arouse suspicion. It's just a shame I didn't stock up on some toys; otherwise, I could have given some away.

As Xin Yi thought about it, she tore off all the wrappings and tags from the gifts, carefully checked them to make sure nothing was missing, and then nodded in satisfaction.

Then, she started the car and drove towards Happiness Lane.

Upon arriving at their destination, Xin Yi parked the car at the entrance of the alley and got out with the gifts in her hands.

It was lunchtime, and the alley was deserted. She walked straight to the Tong family's door and gently knocked.

After a while, the door opened, and it was Aunt Qin who opened it. Aunt Qin recognized Xin Yi at a glance, and a happy smile appeared on her face. She hurriedly reached out and took the things from Xin Yi's hands.

"Yiyi, it's good that you're here. Why did you bring so much stuff? Come in and sit down. We're about to have lunch. Your brother Tong is home too!" Aunt Qin greeted her warmly.

Xin Yi smiled and nodded, then followed Aunt Qin into the house. As soon as she entered the living room, she saw Tong Yang sitting at the dining table, holding an adorable baby in his arms, happily playing with him.

When Tong Yang saw Xin Yi arrive, he greeted her with a smile, "Yi Yi, you're here! Perfect timing, let's have dinner together!"

Xin Yi walked to the dining table and sat down. Looking at the heartwarming scene before her, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

"Okay, Brother Tong, we're coming right away!"

Aunt Qin led Xin Yi into the inner room, gently placed the gifts she had brought on the table, and then came out of the room again.

Aunt Qin smiled and said to Xin Yi, "Yi Yi, please sit down first. I'll go to the kitchen and get you a set of bowls and chopsticks."

Xin Yi smiled and nodded, replying, "Mm!"
