Tianhai City, Qihang Building, 20th floor.
A month has passed since Mayor Wu reported the escape of the psychic.
But the two psychics who broke into the city seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and neither the law enforcement agency nor the security forces could find any clues.
Mayor Wu was fidgeting in his office. His hair was messy again and he looked extremely haggard. He hadn't slept well for a month.
He felt very uneasy when he thought about the two time bombs in his jurisdiction.
It took him more than ten years to climb to this position. He started as an ordinary employee of Yali Company and finally got what he wanted at the age of forty.
After becoming the mayor, he did not just sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor, but worked diligently to accomplish many practical tasks, and the city has been steadily improving.
Moreover, it was the promotion season for Yali Company recently, and he was thinking of taking a step forward with his performance...but such a big thing happened at this critical juncture.
Blame it on those people in the Colonial Office! What the hell is going on?
He reported the matter to his superiors, but all he got in return was buck-passing between departments.
In fact, to some extent, it is not the fault of Yari Company.
According to Alliance law, all psychics captured by colonial companies must be strictly refined and processed according to regulations, that is, the psychics' superhuman abilities must be restricted and destroyed. This treatment method was unanimously approved by the Grand Senate, and every link has undergone meticulous inspection and lengthy iterations.
This process has stood the test of time. Although there have been a few mistakes over the past few hundred years, they have been extremely rare and all within the controllable range. They have not caused any major hidden dangers, and there has never been a precedent of escape.
Then the precedent suddenly struck.
Who could have thought that a freak like Chu Yao would suddenly appear and create a technique that could restore one's cultivation?
Fortunately, this incident has attracted the attention of higher authorities and support is on the way.
The cell phone suddenly rang. Mayor Wu glanced at the screen and quickly picked up the call.
"Mayor Wu, we've received a special envoy from the Arbitration Bureau. We'll be back in ten minutes."
"good!"
Mayor Wu felt relieved. Not long after, his assistant walked into the office with a man and a woman.
The man was tall and straight, and his navy blue uniform was meticulously kept, looking as clean as new.
He has fair skin, deep and calm eyes, and slightly raised eyebrows that give him a hint of playfulness.
"I'm Chen Yu, a special commissioner from the Criminal Investigation Division of the Longdi Adjudication Bureau. This is my deputy, Xu Xinxin." The man introduced himself and extended his hand, politely and gracefully.
"Oh, that's great! You're finally here!" Mayor Wu stretched out his hands and shook them vigorously.
"You don't know, we've been searching for a long time. We've turned Tianhai City upside down..."
"Don't worry, Mr. Mayor. We are professionals." Shen Yu responded with a smile.
"Okay, okay. Come, serve the tea to the distinguished guest..."
"No need for tea. I want to get to work as soon as possible. Mr. Mayor, could you please bring me the criminal's information?"
"No problem! I will fully cooperate!"
——
"Table three, please add another serving of seafood fried rice!"
“Seafood fried rice, yummy!”
Chu Yao poured the chopped side dishes from the plate into the pot, and the boiling hot oil filled the room with a delicious aroma.
Not long after, a plate of steaming hot fried rice was served to the table.
"Sister, your old Hou's cooking skills have improved recently. Where did he learn this secretly?"
"Him? Come on, this is our new chef!"
"You may not know this, but I've seen her before. She's a very pretty girl! She looks like a student, but she's very efficient at her work!"
The proprietress sat behind the counter counting money with a rosy face, her upturned lips unable to hide her smile.
In the past month, their shop's business has been booming.
And this is all thanks to Chu Yao.
This small shop has always been run by a couple. They hired workers because Mr. Hou is old and his hands and feet are not very flexible, so they are looking for an assistant.
Who would have thought that when recruiting a kitchen helper, they would end up hiring a chef!
It was clearly the same dish, but in Chu Yao's hands it suddenly seemed to change. Everyone who had tasted it said it tasted great!
Then it became Chu Yao who cooked and Uncle Hou helped.
Business was initially tepid, and the couple was just trying to make ends meet. But after they changed the chef, they had more and more repeat customers.
When some people saw Chu Yao, they were surprised that the new chef was so young. Word of mouth spread and customers came in droves.
Someone even uploaded a video of her cooking to Feiyu, with the title "Exploring a restaurant on a dark street! The beautiful chef in a small restaurant!"
Although it only had a few hundred views, it was considered a minor hit in the dark streets of Tianhai City.
As a result, more people came to eat. Some came to taste the cooking skills, and some came to see the beautiful girls...
Of course, Chu Yao's first reaction after learning about this was not happiness, nor fear, but anger.
Why can’t I make any money even though others are filming me?
The couple naturally wouldn't let Chu Yao work for nothing, so they doubled her salary. Chu Yao, with tears streaming down her face, received her first month's salary. The first thing she did was spend two thousand on a used smartphone and register a Feiyu account...
"Okay, this is the last order. Xiaoye, you must be tired. Take a break. Just put the plates and other things aside."
"It's okay, Aunt Li, I'll help you clean up."
The old couple looked at Chu Yao with a smile, and they liked her more and more. If they could find their son, they would probably have raised her as their daughter-in-law.
