Task One
That day, Lu Quezhi approached Shi Youchen and asked him, "Um...do you want to continue investigating He Guansheng's case?"
Shi Youchen glanced at his clenched fingers and said nonchalantly, "Do you want to check?"
"I... I think that the Public Security Bureau suspected that the bar was involved with people with superpowers, so they arrested He Guansheng and then let the matter go. But we can't just turn a blind eye!" Lu Quezhi thought of the mission instructions and tried hard to word it, for fear that Shi Youchen would say he would not investigate.
Shi Youchen heard the unconcealed anxiety in his tone and suddenly realized, "Ying Yungui and I mean to start with He Guansheng's secretary, Mo. The bar-related information disappeared without a trace, and there are still many doubts behind this matter."
When Lu Quezhi heard him say this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll go with you! I'll definitely be of use to you!" he volunteered.
"Of course we have to take you with us. We can't do without your help." Shi Youchen said meaningfully.
"So when do we start?"
Shi Youchen finished reading the information, staring at the last two words, and looked up after a long time.
The rain that had been falling for several days finally stopped, but the clouds were still covering the sky. A ray of light broke through the dense clouds and shone down, as if the gods in the sky opened their eyes and looked at the world.
"Wait until Ying Yungui returns from this mission." Shi Youchen put away the screen and said calmly.
——
"Lu Quezhi recommended himself to me. Please come and see me when you come back." - Fear of the Foolish Beauty
Ying Yungui licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at the words "Wait for you to come back" and smiled, then accidentally pulled the wound on his waist, made a "hiss" sound, then stepped over the corpses crisscrossing in front of him and walked out alone.
"You have left 'Copy No. 172BC003'. Mission completed."
"Copy number 172BC003, recovered successfully." A prompt came from the bracelet.

Mo Ling was sorting through the documents in the chairman's office. As she was taking out the last stack of documents from the cabinet, the door creaked open.
"This is from the year 153 in the new calendar. Put it on the second layer of the innermost row in the archive room." She thought it was her assistant, but when she turned around with the document in her arms, she saw an unforgettable face.
In the secretary's office, Mo Ling looked at the three men one by one.
The black-haired beauty who had caught her glimpse earlier was standing by the window, with a cold feeling; the boy with a sallow face was sitting timidly on the sofa, glancing at her from time to time; and the man facing her had trendy hair color, strange clothes, and exuded the temperament of a cynical second-generation rich man.
"What important matters are you all talking about?" Mo Ling tucked her hair behind her ears, adjusted the edge of the mirror, and asked.
The person at the window turned around and spoke first: "Secretary Mo, someone is worried that you will be implicated in Boss He's matter, so they sent us here." He looked directly at Mo Ling, and it didn't seem like he was lying.
But Mo Ling was already used to being tested, so he subconsciously said, "I don't understand what you mean."
The man suddenly laughed. His laughter was very light, and it sounded like the melting snow on the top of the mountain all year round, or like a clear spring flowing over the rocks in the mountains.
Mo Ling was distracted by the chuckle.
"He Guansheng has been arrested. Although the case has been declared closed, this company cannot be saved. You certainly cannot stay here." The beauty slowly walked towards the table.
"So they have other arrangements for you, and asked us to come here today to explain the work." He emphasized the word "arrangement".
Mo Ling was in great confusion because these words contained too much information.
"I'm just a secretary. If the company goes bankrupt, I'll naturally find another way to make a living. I don't know what you're talking about."
The second-generation rich guy suddenly got angry, slamming his hand on the table and saying in an unhappy tone, "Stop wasting your time and dithering. You're being transferred to another place to continue your work starting today! If you understand, pack up your things and go with him. If you delay things over there, you'll be waiting for me!"
His eyes flashed fiercely, and he tapped the table impatiently with his knuckles twice, then pointed at the boy on the sofa.
Mo Ling was now completely convinced that these people were the ones sent this time, so she immediately said respectfully, "Yes, as you command."
The boy on the sofa, still a bit childish, walked towards her, timidly glancing at the second-generation rich kid's face. Then he extended his hand to her and said softly, "Hello, I'll take you to the new location, and then... I'll also hand over the specific work content to you."
Mo Ling thought to herself, "Looks like he's the same as me," and reached out to shake her hand. "Okay, thank you for your help. I'll pack my things, please wait a moment."
The boy pursed his lips nervously: "Okay."
......
Lu Quezhi was sitting in the back seat of the car, with a woman sleeping next to him.
"This isn't a good idea. Can we just take her away?" he asked the two people in front of him in panic.
The unconscious woman was Mo Ling. She was tied to a car by three men and taken away.
Shi Youchen looked out the window and answered him, "This is the only way. First, we don't have a real new workplace to take her to. Second, we don't have enough time to gather more information. Also, our hypothesis has been verified. If we don't take her away, we'll lose our only clue."
In the driver's seat, Ying Yungui whistled and hummed a song, agreeing with the beauty's words: "You're right, and we gave her the best hypnotic drug in the association. Isn't that unfair to her?"
After hearing what the two said, Lu Quezhi had no choice but to accept it. However, he immediately said excitedly, "I didn't expect our plan to succeed so smoothly. Shi Youchen, you are really amazing. How did you come up with that?"
Ying Yungui glanced at the person who was sleeping lightly with his eyes closed in the passenger seat, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and turned the steering wheel half a turn to the right.
"It's just working backwards based on a given assumption." Shi Youchen said with his eyes closed.
Lu Quezhi began to analyze seriously: "Assuming that she is from the Mo family, but Ying Yungui also said that there is only one female in the Mo family in this generation, Molier, so she must not be from the family."
"And once He Guansheng was arrested, there was no longer any need for supervision of this company. They would definitely assign her other work, so you asked us to play different roles and trick her with lies!"
He pounded his palm, as if he finally understood Shi Youchen's "script".
"I was just gambling. Fortunately, the result is not bad." Shi Youchen opened his eyes, staring at the scene in front of the car, as if thinking about something.
"Oh! Then you are really amazing, you are so smart!" Lu Quezhi thought that he had worked with such a person for so long, and suddenly felt a little fortunate, but then felt scared.
Ying Yungui interrupted his flattery: "You should first think about how to perceive more useful information."
Lu Quezhi's face immediately became filled with worry: "Seeing how cautious she was when talking to us today, I think it may not be that easy." The stronger a person's psychological defenses are, the more difficult it is for him to perceive them.
"You just need to get information about her family." Shi Youchen suddenly spoke.
"?" Lu Quezhi didn't understand what he meant.
"She's just an ordinary person without any special abilities, but her last name happens to be Mo. If she's really from the Mo family, then it's very likely..."
Ying Yungui continued, "The Mo family adopted a child from society." He was secretly delighted when he received Shi Youchen's admiring look.
"Ah?" Lu Quezhi couldn't keep up with the two people's thinking and could only believe whatever they said.
The car drove into the underground garage, which was a suburban villa in City Z, one of Ying Yungui's properties.
Originally, Shi Youchen proposed to go to his former residence, but was opposed by Ying Yungui. Of course, he didn't know what Ying Yungui was thinking about this - Lu Quezhi was probably not a good person, and he must not be allowed to enter Shi Youchen's home, even if it was his former home.
Besides, the steering wheel is in Ying Yungui's hands, so we can go wherever he says.
It was already extremely immoral for three men to forcibly take a woman away, so they at least followed the most basic principle - no physical contact between men and women. So the task of moving the unconscious Mo Ling into the room fell to Ying Yungui.
Young Master Ying gritted his teeth and, for Shi Youchen's sake, forced himself to endure the extreme displeasure of having to use his supernatural powers to do hard labor after being exhausted all the way.
...
In the living room, on the expensive leather sofa, Ying Yungui was lying in a "spread" position, with one arm and leg hanging on the backrest, and the extended part swaying gently in and out.
The door of the guest bedroom opened, and Shi Youchen and Lu Quezhi walked out.
Ying Yungui sat up suddenly and moved his butt to the left, leaving space on both sides of the sofa.
Lu Quezhi sat down on his left, but Shi Youchen walked straight past them and sat on a single seat beside them.
"......" Ying Yungui felt that he did it on purpose, "How is it?"
Lu Quezhi shared the information he had sensed: "Mo Ling is an orphan. She grew up in the 'Good Deeds Orphanage' in Z City until she was six years old. She was then adopted by the Mo family under the pretext of 'benefiting society and caring for orphans.' Because the Mo family adopts a large number of orphans every year, there's no specific adopter or information."
"The so-called institutional adoption?" Ying Yungui asked. Although he was not close to the Mo family, he really knew nothing about this matter.
Shi Youchen saw that he was not aware of this matter and teased him, "It's normal that you don't know. After all, this is the life of ordinary people." It would be strange for a young man from a noble family like Ying Yungui, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, to care about orphans in society.
Shi Youchen said this casually, but Ying Yungui's face turned a little ugly.
Is this how a beauty looks at him...
The eldest young master was a little depressed.
"I sensed that the orphanage was accustomed to the Mo family adopting, and the procedures went smoothly. However, I have no idea when, where, or how many people the Mo family adopted."
"Maybe we should go to the orphanage?" Lu Quezhi asked.
Shi Youchen asked, "Any other information?"
"As for her family, she was adopted by the Mo family and had no other relatives. But there were seven other children adopted in the same batch as her, all of whom were six years old at the time."
"An orphanage only adopted seven children, and they specifically chose children of the same age."
"'Benefiting society and caring for orphans'?" Shi Youchen felt puzzled.
Ying Yungui made the decision: "Let's go and take a look at the 'Good Deeds Orphanage'."
