"It's nothing, it's just that there's a case that's a little tricky, and I need to find someone," Huixiang said, sighing.

"Find someone?" Yako looked at Huixiang with a puzzled expression. "This task should be very simple, right?"

In Yako's opinion, finding someone should be the simplest case for a detective, so how could it be tricky?

"Take a look for yourself," Huixiang said, taking a yellowed photograph out of her bag and placing it in front of Huixiang. "See the woman circled in the picture? That's the woman we're looking for."

"With photos, it'll be easy to find, right? What's the problem?" Yako still looked at Huixiang, puzzled.

"If only it were that simple." Huixiang took a sip of her drink, somewhat annoyed, and then said, "The photo you're looking at is from twenty-two years ago. All I know is that this woman's name is Gloria, and she used to be a nun in a convent."

That's not the most crucial thing. The most crucial thing is to find the child born to this woman named Gloria.

After saying that, Huixiang looked at Yazi with a distressed expression and said, "Now you should know how difficult it is."

"This, this is too difficult! It's like finding a needle in a haystack!" Ya Zi said, stunned and incredulous.

There's only one name, and the photo is from 22 years ago. Who knows where the person is now? Where they went? And who knows if they changed their name?

The key point is that they are looking for her child, which makes it even more difficult.

"You could have refused." Yako looked at Huixiang speechlessly. Such a difficult case could have been easily turned down.

"No way! Only challenging and difficult tasks are fun." Huixiang shook her head. Being a detective was her hobby. What was the point of simple tasks? Only challenging tasks were fun.

"I'm really impressed with you." Yako said helplessly, looking at Huixiang.

If it were her, she definitely wouldn't take this case.

"And you're talking about me? You're the same way. You know you can't find any clues, but you still stubbornly persist." Huixiang glanced at Yazi: "Now I'm starting to suspect that you've fallen for the other person and are using this as an excuse to get closer to them."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly like that bastard? I wish I could bite him to death!" Yako retorted immediately, like a cat with its fur standing on end.

“Look, you’re even stuttering, which means I’m right,” Huixiang said, giving Yazi a deep look.

"No, I didn't. I just choked on my drink," Yako denied.

"Is it?"

Huixiang looked at Yazi with a half-smile, making Yazi uneasy. Finally, she suddenly laughed and said, "Alright, I was just joking with you, don't take it so seriously."

"call"

Yako's tense nerves immediately relaxed, and then she gave Huixiang a reproachful look: "Don't make jokes like that again. Even if I, Yako, never date a man in my life, I will never like that bastard."

Unfortunately, Ya Zi didn't know that there's a phenomenon called the "true fragrance theorem" in this world. If she had known, she definitely wouldn't have spoken so confidently.

Meanwhile, outside Lan Kwai Fong, Situ Haonan appeared on a street corner with his henchmen.

"You guys go in later and proceed according to plan." Situ Haonan looked at his underlings with a serious expression.

This matter concerns the success or failure of my plan, and it all depends on how well these underlings act.

"Don't worry, big brother, this is a piece of cake for me," the blond-haired guy said casually.

Huang Mao was quite confident about this task. He was just a little ugly, otherwise he would definitely be an actor.

He believed that with his acting skills, he could definitely make a name for himself, but unfortunately his face and physique held him back.

"Okay, if you succeed, I'll promote you to boss." Situ Haonan patted the blond-haired guy on the shoulder, generously rewarding him.

This isn't just Situ Haonan talking big; as long as Huang Mao can really complete the mission, he wouldn't mind giving Huang Mao this opportunity.

"Thank you, boss. Don't worry."

Yellow Hair's eyes lit up, and he led a few of his underlings into Lan Kwai Fong.

According to the plan, they would wait until Lan Kwai Fong officially opened at 8 p.m. and the crowds reached their peak before causing trouble.

It's still daytime, so there's still time to wander around.

Although Lan Kwai Fong officially opens at 8 p.m., there are already some customers visiting.

After Huang Mao and his men went inside, Situ Haonan turned around and entered the Lan Kwai Fong Hotel. He booked a room on the 22nd floor, from which he could see the entire Lan Kwai Fong district.

Speaking of which, the Lan Kwai Fong Hotel is a three-star hotel and also owned by Chen Ziwen. It had already started operating the day before.

After entering the room, Situ Haonan opened the window and observed the activity in Lan Kwai Fong from time to time.

This operation is crucial to whether he can provoke a conflict between Hung Hing and Arctic. Tung Sing is under immense pressure right now, and dragging Arctic into the conflict would be extremely beneficial for them.

Ah Jie drove all the way to the entrance of Mengluo Bar before stopping.

After getting off the bus and entering the bar, Chen Ziwen suddenly saw Ya Zi and Hui Xiang, and on a whim, he walked over to them.

"Hey, Officer Yako, what a coincidence, you're here too." Chen Ziwen sat down next to Huixiang with a big smile, then looked at Yako across from him and said.

"It's you? You bastard." Ya Zi was stunned for a moment, and blurted out when she saw Chen Ziwen.

She called Chen Ziwen a bastard countless times in her heart, but this time she accidentally blurted it out.

"It seems Officer Ya Zi still has feelings for me." Chen Ziwen looked at Ya Zi with a slightly flippant expression.

For some reason, Chen Ziwen just liked watching Ya Zi's exasperated yet helpless expression.

Perhaps this is Chen Ziwen's own twisted sense of humor.

"Hmph, yes, I'll never forget you in my life, but don't get too cocky. When I say I'll never forget you, I mean I'll definitely find evidence against you." Yako said halfway through, then realized she had misspoke and quickly corrected herself.

That damned bastard, I almost fell into your trap again.

"What evidence did you find against me? Was it about helping you put on a bra?" Chen Ziwen leaned back in his chair, teasingly looking at Ya Zi.

“You…” Ya Zi gritted her teeth and looked at Chen Ziwen. She knew it was this bastard, and now he had admitted it himself.

However, she had no evidence to prove it, and could only watch Chen Ziwen make herself angry.

Seeing how Chen Ziwen had angered Ya Zi, Hui Xiang couldn't help but smile.

This was the first time she had ever seen anyone make Ya Zi so angry.

However, it must be said that the angrier Yako is, the more expressive her face becomes, and the cuter she looks.

After teasing Ya Zi for a while, Chen Ziwen turned around and left. Before leaving, he gently touched Hui Xiang under the table.

"Ya Zi, are you alright?" Hui Xiang asked Ya Zi, suppressing a laugh.

"I'm fine, but I, Ya Zi, swear I'll never forgive this bastard for the rest of my life." Ya Zi's expression was contorted with anger.

Thinking about how hateful that bastard looked just now, she really wanted to bite him to death without considering the consequences.

"You've said that so many times already." Huixiang looked at Yazi; she had heard this sentence countless times.

But every time, it's the same thing, and Ya Zi never takes any action.

"Okay, that's enough. I'm going to the restroom." Huixiang said, picking up her bag and walking towards the restroom.

After walking for a while, Huixiang glanced back at Yazi and found that she wasn't watching her. Then, Huixiang slipped into the private room next door.

As soon as Huixiang entered the private room, she was hugged by someone, who was none other than Chen Ziwen.

"You rascal, you scared me to death!" Huixiang turned around and scolded Chen Ziwen.

"Have you missed me lately?" Chen Ziwen lightly pecked Huixiang's lips before asking.

"I've been thinking about it," Huixiang murmured softly as she leaned against Chen Ziwen's chest.

"He thought about it but didn't tell me, he really deserves a beating," Chen Ziwen said.

Of course, Chen Ziwen couldn't have used force; he just patted her lightly.

"Hmph, but you didn't go looking for her either," Hui Xiang said with a slight snort, her tone slightly dissatisfied.

She didn't go to Chen Ziwen, but Chen Ziwen didn't go to her either. Men, once they have other women around them, forget that they have other women.

Chen Ziwen coughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "What have you been busy with lately?"

Huixiang didn't think much of it and said directly, "It's a case about finding someone."

As for the specific details, Huixiang didn't elaborate, and Chen Ziwen didn't ask further. In Chen Ziwen's view, the case of finding someone was simple and wouldn't involve any danger.

"Oh, right, I've prepared a few bodyguards for you. Remember to take them with you when you leave later," Chen Ziwen suddenly remembered and said.

Chen Ziwen knew that Hui Xiang would definitely appear when Lan Kwai Fong opened, so he had prepared bodyguards in advance.

Chen Ziwen always kept the safety of his women in mind. Since his other women all had bodyguards, he couldn't be biased towards one another, and Huixiang had one too.

“Bodyguards? It’s not really appropriate for a detective like me to have bodyguards.” Huixiang hesitated.

Who's ever heard of a detective carrying bodyguards all the time while solving cases? She certainly hadn't.

"Promise me, or I won't let you run any detective agency." Chen Ziwen looked at Huixiang with a serious expression.

He wouldn't stop Huixiang from doing what she liked, but she had to listen to him regarding safety.

"Okay, okay, I promise you, alright?" Huixiang reluctantly agreed, but her heart was filled with sweetness.

She tilted her head back and kissed Chen Ziwen directly.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and if it weren't for the unsuitable location, Chen Ziwen would never have let Huixiang go.

Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open, and Menglu walked in. Seeing Chen Ziwen and Huixiang's appearance, she laughed and said, "It seems I came in at the wrong time."

"Sister Mengluo." Huixiang was startled, but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it was Mengluo. However, upon hearing Mengluo's teasing words, she still stomped her foot shyly.
