Chu Ge was genuinely intrigued. He couldn't understand why everything was going so well, but suddenly, everything messed up.

Something strange, really strange, what exactly is going on?

However, no matter how curious Chu Ge was, he didn't ask any questions. Since Mu Lingshan had gotten to this point, he just needed to listen on.

In fact, Mu Lingshan did not disappoint him either. She shot him a complex look before revealing the most crucial part of the story.

"That Sister Yan was talking, rubbed her eyes, and her expression immediately turned off. She first hissed and then started screaming. It turned out that when I was eating the chili, my fingers were also dipped in chili water, and when Sister Yan happened to touch my hand, it got on hers too."

Hearing this, Chu Ge was initially surprised, and then he suddenly understood, bursting into uncontrollable laughter.

"Hahahaha! And then... and then she realized that the chili water came from your hand and kicked you out?"

Chu Ge could completely imagine how marvelous Sister Yan's expression was at the time and could also imagine how painful it must have been to rub that chili water into her eyes. It was those hot peppers, after all. Sister Yan's feeling at that time must have been burning intense. She must still be washing her hands and rinsing her eyes over and over by now, right?

Sister Yan, losing such face in front of a group of young ladies, would surely be infuriated.

Likewise, he could also completely imagine how embarrassed Mu Lingshan must have felt at the time. She had managed to sneak in with much effort, only to get no information and be kicked out.

This incident was truly bizarre.

Seeing Chu Ge laughing so brightly, Mu Lingshan's heart grew even more aggrieved. In annoyance, she kicked Chu Ge, "Laugh! You're still laughing! Isn't it all your fault? What kind of lousy idea was that?"

Chu Ge laughed for a while before finally catching his breath, "Alright, alright, let's say it was a bad idea on my part, okay? But, haha... I gave you the chili to deal with the men, who knew this would happen?"

"I don't care, anyway, it's your fault. Things messed up, and you have to think of a solution for me, a can-only-succeed-not-fail solution. Or maybe you should sneak in disguised as a male escort."

Mu Lingshan started acting unreasonably, blurting out a complaint, then suddenly paused, blinked, "Hey? Seems like my idea is not bad?"

Chu Ge rolled his eyes, "Not bad your head is not bad." Seeing Mu Lingshan's striking eyebrows about to raise again, he decided not to tease her further and calmly said, "No need to go to such trouble, there's nothing to spy on there. We can change our target."

Mu Lingshan was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"That place is not important at all."

"Not important? Why is it not important?"

"Because that's just a transit point. Those young ladies study there or are observed for a while, and once it's confirmed they have no issues, they're moved to a place called Jinkai."

Mu Lingshan instinctively continued, "Jinkai Villa?"

Chu Ge shrugged, "If there aren't any other places called Jinkai, then it should be."

Mu Lingshan blinked and said urgently, "How do you know? Is this information reliable?"

"It should be reliable. During the time you went into the room, I heard that Sister Yan saying it. She was on the phone with someone named Brother Yu, and I happened to overhear. Oh, and there's a casino inside Jinkai Villa."

By now, Chu Ge was a bit tired and didn't want to spend too much time, so he yawned and spoke quite directly.

Compared to Chu Ge's lazy indifference, Mu Lingshan was somewhat stunned at the time, repeating the word "casino" in a long drawl, staring at Chu Ge without blinking as if examining some kind of creature.

"Hey, I've given you the information. If you can root out the yellow and gambling activities in this villa, it would count as a great achievement. Now, you probably can go home and sleep, right? I'm really tired, so I won't see you off, is that okay?"

Saying this, Chu Ge attempted to rise from the sofa, but just as he began to stand, Mu Lingshan pressed his shoulders back down.

"Hey, are you serious? It's just two chilies, no need to act so bitter and resentful towards me, clinging to me like this? Also... you're about to have a wardrobe malfunction."

Feeling Mu Lingshan's extremely complicated gaze, Chu Ge was rendered speechless, shrugged, and sought a topic he thought could divert Mu Lingshan's attention, even though in reality, there wasn't such a thing.

Chu Ge initially thought Mu Lingshan would immediately rise in embarrassment, adjust her attire, but to his surprise... Mu Lingshan didn't pay any attention to it at all.

Because Mu Lingshan was too shocked at the moment, so shocked that even when she saw Chu Ge's mouth moving, she didn't hear what he said.

She really couldn't imagine how Chu Ge managed to eavesdrop on Sister Yan's call. This is such a secretive matter that even an idiot would know to observe their surroundings before speaking, ensuring everything was foolproof first.

What's more, when she and Chu Ge got out of the car, they were still over a hundred meters away from the target building. Sister Yan only took a few minutes to buy cigarettes; how did Chu Ge get close to her?

The terrain there seemed to contain only a few single-family, two-story houses with nothing particularly suitable for hiding, so how did Chu Ge manage to go unseen by Sister Yan and even her?

This... was too miraculous!

Chu Ge's face in her line of sight suddenly seemed to become inscrutable. Despite thinking that, given Chu Ge's usual habits, he probably wouldn't tell her the truth, after some hesitation, she couldn't resist asking.

"How... did you eavesdrop on Sister Yan's call?"

"I was on the rooftop of the building where she was making the call."

Chu Ge genuinely wanted to sleep now and didn't banter with Mu Lingshan but instead spoke honestly.

Unfortunately, these words sounded completely unbelievable to Mu Lingshan, who felt that Chu Ge was spouting nonsense and just perfunctory.

Those small two-story houses were as tall as a typical three-story building, with very smooth outer walls, and even with climbing equipment, it might not be possible to get up there. She knew very well that when Chu Ge and she went out, they were empty-handed.

Could it be, Chu Ge was like a gecko, with suction cups on his hands and feet? Or maybe, Spider-Man would be more fitting?

Okay, even if Chu Ge really managed to get up there, wasn't his speed a little too fast? This... was truly seamless and silent!

Although Mu Lingshan was really unwilling to accept it, looking at Chu Ge's demeanor, it was clear that any further questions from her would be in vain.

"Keep fabricating, bastard! I'm leaving!"

Mu Lingshan finally stood up from the sofa, her somewhat dazed cheeks once again showing frustration. She glared at Chu Ge and turned to walk out of his house.

However, when she pushed the door open, her steps paused slightly, and she softly muttered "Thanks," then added "Good night" in a voice so low that even Chu Ge didn't hear it.

Women are indeed strange creatures; if it were a man, with such underlying anger, he probably wouldn't say such things.

But when the word "thanks" reached Chu Ge's ears, it made the corner of his mouth lift slightly. This little police flower was indeed fierce, temperamental, but... still had a good heart.

Just for that word of thanks, the tiredness from half the night seemed worthwhile.

Eh? Actually, he hadn't done much; it wasn't really tiring at all.

With another glance at the door that Mu Lingshan had closed, Chu Ge removed the fake mole on his face, went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed his hair back to its original color, and then went to bed to sleep soundly.

At five in the morning the next day, Chu Ge was awakened by a knock on the door, a loud and rapid knocking of "bang, bang, bang" that made him suspect if some unwelcome person had come to his door to cause trouble.

With a yawn, Chu Ge got out of bed bare-chested, a bit grumpy from waking up, and opened the door to see Mu Lingshan's hand about to fall. If he hadn't reacted quickly, that fist might have landed on his face.

In his sight, despite Mu Lingshan's eyes showing some red from the whites and dark circles indicating she hadn't slept, her eyes were as bright as small bulbs. Her face showed no sign of fatigue but rather extreme excitement.

Seeing Chu Ge, Mu Lingshan's eyes immediately brightened further, and with a smile, she said, "Good morning."

Chu Ge rolled his eyes, "Sis, do you even know how early it is? What time is it now, and you're banging on the door like you're collecting protection money?"

Normally, Mu Lingshan might retort to Chu Ge at this moment. But considering how much Chu Ge helped her yesterday, and since she wanted further assistance, she held back.

Mu Lingshan once again adopted the demeanor she showed while "teasing" Chu Ge yesterday, slightly curling her lips into a smile, "Handsome, I'm already at the entrance, won't you invite me in to sit?"

"Let's talk when I wake up."

Leaving those words, Chu Ge closed the door immediately. The speed and decisiveness of his actions left Mu Lingshan stunned. Even as the door tightly shut, her face still showed that excited smile.

However, that smile gradually started to stiffen.

Mu Lingshan finally accepted this fact, her mouth twitching slightly, this guy, he actually slammed the door on me?
