It's almost 11 o'clock in the evening, and it's time to have a midnight snack.

Chen Le and Xia Shengbing were both hungry.

Xia Shengbing actually wanted to eat in a restaurant, private rooms and other places, but was worried that the restaurant would take off his mask and be recognized by the waiters. If he published a newspaper tomorrow, he would not be able to have a private room with the boy in the middle of the night.

I searched nearby, but I wanted to find a safer store, but I couldn't find anything suitable.

In the end, I could only follow Chen Le's advice, followed Chen Le to the small noodle restaurant at the roadside stall, and chose a corner to sit down.

The light here is dark and it is facing the shop, so no one will look at her especially.

Then Chen Le ordered a bowl of noodles and Xia Shengbing ordered a portion of seafood noodles.

As the noodles were served, Xia Shengbing frowned in displeasure, looked at the chopsticks inserted on the table, and complained, "Can you eat the things here? Are these chopsticks disinfected? Have you eaten them? Have you eaten them by others? Is it safe? Is it hygienic? I haven't seen disinfection tools here? Have you washed this bowl? Are there bacteria residues? Will there be infectious diseases?"

“…”

Chen Le looked at her silently, and kept eating his noodles, he was so hungry anyway.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xia Shengbing immediately glared at him, "What's your attitude? Why don't you talk?"

"I don't know if you ask me, I just know that things can be eaten without killing people."

“…”

One of the two was dust on the ground and the other was a proud daughter of heaven, so naturally they couldn't go together.

Xia Shengbing frowned, and barely took a bite and put the chopsticks on the bowl and stopped eating.

He murmured in a low voice, "It's so bad, I'd better go home and eat it."

He looks like he never wants to touch him again.

On the other hand, Chen Le had finished a bowl of it in just a few seconds and even finished the soup.

Then when he saw the whole bowl of seafood noodles in front of Xia Shengbing, he was moved and said, "You really don't eat it?"

Xia Shengbing replied firmly, "I won't eat it if I beat you to death."

"You're a waste, give it to me."

"Whatever you do! I won't eat it anyway."

Wasting food is shameful.

Chen Le stood up a little and served the seafood noodles in front of Xia Shengbing.

When Xia Shengbing saw Chen Le picking up the chopsticks on his face, he quickly said, "Hey, those chopsticks..."

Unfortunately, what she said was too late, and Chen Le had already started eating, looking like he was afraid that others would compete with him.

Hearing Xia Shengbing speak, Chen Le bit her face and raised her face and said, "What's wrong with the chopsticks?"

"...It's okay, you pig's head and die."

Xia Shengbing blushed a little.

After all, she is a girl and has a slender mind.

The chopsticks were something she had eaten and stuffed into her mouth. Now that Chen Le picked them up and ate them, she was always a little embarrassed.

Isn't this an indirect kiss?

Is this a pig? Does he have no chopsticks?

Chen Le didn't think too much about it. He had served the noodles and had chopsticks on the noodles bowl, so he naturally picked them up and ate them.

The boy couldn't understand the girl's meaning, so he was used to being scolded. In short, he would fill his stomach first.

This seafood noodles are precious, and it would be a waste to throw them away.

Xia Shengbing still cursed a little resentful, "Pig, no one robs you, why eat so quickly?"

By the way, because this is considered a "work meal", Xia Shengbing said that she was treating her and asked Chen Le to order whatever she wanted.

But Chen Le didn't order anything, so he just ordered the cheapest bowl of noodles that didn't add anything. He didn't want to deliberately take advantage of Xia Shengbing. He was so late.

"By the way, the fire has been investigated clearly?"

"It's clear."

Chen Le nodded while eating. "That's not a fire!"

"It's not a fire? What is that?" Xia Shengbing was puzzled.

Chen Le then raised his head, looked directly at Xia Shengbing, and said seriously, "That's a terrorist attack!"

"Terror attack?"

"Yes, 12 years ago, a bomb terrorist attack occurred at Yindu Department Store. A fire broke out at the scene, some people died, some were injured, some were crying, some were shouting, there were many people, and the fire was also very fierce, and many people were surrounded by the fire."

"If you think about it, you may have experienced that terrorist attack at Yindu Department Store, and then you lost that piece of jade when you ran away, or when your family took you away."

"And because you saw someone dead in that terrorist attack and saw some bloody and terrifying scenes, the body's self-protection function was turned on, and the memory was closed or broken, so you can't remember it very clearly."

"If you explain this, you can understand it clearly."

“…”

Xia Shengbing was stunned for a moment, and as Chen Le said, he gradually recalled it in his mind.

Then he suddenly widened his eyes and slapped the table excitedly and said, "Yes, you are right. At first, I always felt that something was missing. In my memory, there was actually a 'bang bang' sound during that fire. Now, when I think about it, it was the gunshots of terrorist attacks."

"Yes," Chen Le replied angrily, "so I asked you a long time ago if something was missing. If it was just a fire, we had found it. If you had said there was a gunshot earlier, I would definitely know that it was not a fire, but a terrorist attack."

“…”

Xia Shengbing immediately lowered her little face and stared at Chen Le with dissatisfaction.

How could she be wrong? It is Chen Le's fault if she is wrong.

He replied stubbornly, "That's because you didn't understand what I meant. It's all your fault!"

Chen Le was obviously too straightforward and was still defending Xia Shengbing, "Please, if you are not reasonable, I have asked you if there is something missing or if there is any omission. You said that we would not have wasted more than 3 hours."

Chen Le was obviously too young and actually tried to argue with Xia Shengbing, but the result was naturally.

Xia Shengbing stared fiercely with a calm little face, "Don't reason with me, I'm the reason. I said it's your fault, it's your fault!"

“…”

Chen Le decided not to get entangled with her.

A good man doesn't fight with a woman.

"Anyway, I'm sure for the time being. You should have experienced that terrorist attack, and Tomato Yu was probably dropped at that time, so there are only three possibilities left."

"First, the magma was dropped in a corner, and the sewer might be buried under the ground or washed into the sea, and no one has ever picked it up."

Xia Shengbing replied surely, "This is impossible. That magma must be in the hands of another person, and... it should be a boy of similar age as mine."

Chen Le was puzzled, "Why are you so sure?"

Xia Shengbing stared at him and said, "Don't worry about how I know, I have my own way. Black and white magma, mutual love, and will be passed down forever. As long as this black jade is in my hands, the other white jade must be in the hands of another person. There is a great chance that it is a boy of the same age as me."

“…Why, is there any scientific basis for this?”

"What I said is scientific basis!"

Xia Shengbing was confident and did not talk about any scientific principles at all.

Chen Le had no choice.

He said helplessly, "Okay, let's assume that what you said is true first."

"What assumptions, what I'm saying is true, do you understand?"

"Okay, okay, you're amazing, because what you said is true, then we only have two possibilities."

Chen Le really has no choice but to do anything to her.

"One of the things, that might have been taken away by the police who participated in the terrorist attack at the time, and kept it in the lost property in the police station, and was claimed by others."

"Second, that is, it was picked up by passers-by who were on the scene at that time, or like you, who had experienced terrorist attacks, or it was unknown whether it was sold or placed at home after taking it away."

Xia Shengbing replied with a calm face, "Do you don't understand what I mean? The other white jade must be in the hands of someone else, not in the lost property... Forget it, I'll investigate here. Anyway, it won't cost anything. So what if it's not there?"

"What else can I do? I can only look for and ask one by one from the people who have experienced terrorist attacks at that time."

“…and right!”

Xia Shengbing said that this was actually a bit happy because at least there were clues.

Looking at Chen Le, Yingying smiled and said, "Hmph, it's not bad. You're a little better than I thought. You really didn't disappoint me. It's not like those who boasted about the number one detectives and the number one detectives. In the end, I didn't even find out a clue, and I was so angry!"

"Is this a compliment to me?"

"That's right."

Xia Shengbing raised her eyebrows and said proudly, "You can take it with gratitude. After all, this may be the only chance to get my praise in your barren life."

Chen Le replied expressionlessly, "Yes, then I really thank you, Your Highness, Princess Han Ice."

"You're welcome, hurry up and leave after eating."
