Chapter 236 Pulling Out the Hidden Lines

"Are you watering the plants upstairs? Okay, we got it."

Just as Yue Jiuling left Ya Zi, Ye Dongfeng, and a few others downstairs to reserve spots, and took Bai Xinyu and Mu Xiaoyi upstairs to find Xiao Baicai, Xiao Hui suddenly called out to Yue Jiuling and the others again, saying, "Hey~ wait, Miss Yue, right, there's something I almost forgot to tell you."

"What is it?"

Yue Jiuling was about to go upstairs when Xiao Hui suddenly called out to her, and she was a little curious as to what he wanted to tell them.

"Hey, could you please take that toilet ghost that your department left behind with you? He comes out every day now and has scared so many of our customers. If you can, please take him away as soon as possible."

"A toilet ghost? What kind of toilet ghost is that?"

Bai Xinyu was a little confused by Xiao Hui's words. What did the fact that there was a toilet ghost in their restaurant have to do with their department? Why did they need to come and take it away?

Yue Jiuling was also a little confused by these words, because none of the people in this restaurant were ordinary people. Couldn't they catch even a toilet ghost? Why did it have to be their department that had to handle it?

Just when they were all puzzled, Yue Jiuling suddenly remembered something. When they came here with their colleagues from the A3 department that day, Captain Xia said that they had planted a mole in the restaurant. Could it be that the mole was the toilet ghost?

Thinking of this, Yue Jiuling immediately took out her phone and said, "Xiao Hui, wait a minute, I need to ask someone about this first."

Mu Xiaoyi watched Yue Jiuling make a phone call and seemed to understand something. She tugged at Bai Xinyu, who was still confused, and said, "Why don't you let Jiuling make a call and ask first?"

Yue Jiuling quickly got through to Captain Xia on the phone. Xia seemed to have just gotten off work as well. He asked, "Hello~ is this Jiuling? What's up? Why are you calling me all of a sudden?"

"Xia, um, there's a toilet ghost in that Shi Ren restaurant, is it one of yours?"

Yue Jiuling actually guessed that the toilet ghost was Xia's mole, but she still wanted to find out more.

Sure enough, after Yue Jiuling asked that question, Xia seemed to only now remember that they had left a hidden informant in the restaurant. He hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, that's one of our people. What happened? Was he arrested or what? If he was arrested, Jiuling, please help rescue him first."

Xia Xia still sounded a little nervous about the toilet ghost. When Yue Jiuling heard Xia Xia say this, she quickly said, "Well, the toilet ghost is fine and hasn't been caught. However, we've already reached a settlement with the restaurant, so let's take back your undercover agents."

"You weren't caught, right? That's good. Are you still at the restaurant? Wait a minute, I'll come over right now and 'pull out' this hidden thread."

When Yue Jiuling heard that Xia was coming to take the toilet ghost away, she said to Xiao Hui, "Well, someone will be coming to take the toilet ghost away soon, so you don't need to worry."

"Wait a minute? That's great, thank you so much."

Little Grey was also very happy to hear that the toilet ghost would be taken away soon.

Seeing that everything was alright for the time being, Yue Jiuling continued up the stairs. As she went up, she told Bai Xinyu and Mu Xiaoyi, "Xia told me before that they left a mole in the restaurant, but I didn't expect that the mole would be a toilet ghost. Remember, before Xia comes, it's best not to go to the toilet."

"Phew~ Luckily, none of us went to the bathroom just now."

Mu Xiaoyi patted her chest and said thankfully.

Xiao Baicai spotted Yue Jiuling as she went upstairs. He put down the watering can and wanted to greet her, but he bumped into Qiongqi as soon as he stepped off the platform. Because Xiao Baicai was a bit small, he bumped into Qiongqi and ended up in his arms.

"Ouch~"

"Hey~ Xiaobai, where are you in such a hurry to go?"

Little Cabbage bumped into Qiongqi's arms, which was a pleasant surprise for Qiongqi. So he simply hugged Little Cabbage, rubbed his little head, and asked him questions softly.
