A century after retirement, a post-apocalyptic tycoon is forced to find new employment.

"Girl, how many people are there?"

The female owner of the hotel is wearing a blue cheongsam. Her hair is tied back and fixed with an exquisite light blue carved hairpin. The pendant on her earlobe is the same as the hairpin.

She has a slender figure and light makeup on her face. She looks gentle and dignified, which is incompatible with a seafood restaurant.

Ji Ning glanced at her twice and said with a smile, "One."

"It's 198 yuan per person. The pot base includes seafood, spicy, tomato, curry, and clear soup. You can choose any two."

"Just seafood."

The female boss immediately turned around and spoke in local dialect.

He turned around and continued to ask: "We have unlimited seafood. You need to order other seafood from me."

Ji Ning glanced at the menu on the table, raised her head, and said with a smile: "I want 5 sea fish, each fish weighs 8 pounds."

The soft face of the female boss froze at this moment, but she soon returned to normal. Her voice was still soft and weak, but her eyes were much sharper.

"Guest, there are no 8 pounds of marine fish in the store."

"You can buy it at the stall opposite." Ji Ning said calmly. The female boss looked at her for a while, then turned around and shouted in the local dialect towards the kitchen.

After a while, an inconspicuous man wearing an apron came out of the kitchen. He seemed to glance at her and then left the restaurant.

It's dinner time now, but the restaurant's business is not good. Plus Ji Ning, there are only three or four people eating.

The voice of the female boss was not as gentle as before, and even had a hint of coldness, "Our seafood porridge is free to drink."

Ji Ning smiled, took out her mobile phone, scanned the QR code on the corner of the table, and paid 198 directly.

The female boss looked at her again and asked, "Anything else?"

"Two more pounds of shrimps and crabs."

The female boss took notes with pen and paper. Seeing that Ji Ning stopped ordering, she turned around and went to the kitchen. After staying there for a few minutes, she came over with a pot.

The pot is still steaming.

The female boss put the pot on the induction cooker on the table, turned on the switch, and then brought prepared shrimps and crabs.

Ji Ning thanked her and put the shrimp into the boiling water.

The female boss sat behind the checkout counter and looked at her.

A scrutinizing gaze flashed across his eyes.

Although Ji Ning was leisurely eating seafood hot pot, her mental energy had already covered the entire restaurant.

She felt that someone had brought five pieces of sea fish from the kitchen. The master cut the fish into sections and added cooking wine and scallions to remove the fishy smell, but there was no note Huang Ying mentioned in the fish.

It seems that the other party is also very cautious.

Ji Ning slowly ate the seafood hotpot until she had finished all five sea fish. The female boss finally came over again.

At this time, her tone returned to gentleness, "Do you want anything else?"

Ji Ning raised her head and said, "Your sea fish is delicious."

"Thank you."

"Five more 8-pound sea fish..."

The smile on the female boss's face froze again, and she replied unnaturally: "Guest, our hotel can't waste anything."

"I've eaten." Ji Ning said with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

The female boss glanced at the guests eating next to her, and when she saw that no one was paying attention, her true emotions finally showed on her face.

A gaze full of wildness, aggression and calculation stared at Ji Ning's face for a while.

The cold voice whispered: "What are you doing here?"

"Look for Lame Liu."

"He's on the other side."

"No, it's you." The smile on Ji Ning's face did not change, but the female boss's eyes had murderous intent.

She was wondering who around her had betrayed her.

"Don't worry, no one betrayed you, I guessed it." Ji Ning pointed to the seat opposite, "Sit down and talk."

But the female boss pointed directly to the private room next to her, "Go there."

Ji Ning shrugged and said he had no objection. Then, under the sharp gaze of the female boss, Ji Ning scooped up the remaining fish meat in the pot into a bowl and followed her into the private room with the bowl in hand.

This private room was just a cover. Pushing open the wooden wall next to it, the two of them came to a hidden space.

This is still not the place for the female boss to talk.

Ji Ning held the bowl and followed the female boss, walking from room to room, and finally came to the kitchen.

Ji Ning looked at the seven or eight burly men in the kitchen, raised an eyebrow, and then followed the female boss through the back door of the kitchen to the alley outside.

The alley was only three feet wide, with blue brick walls on both sides. The two walked more than ten meters before they saw a closed security door.

The female boss took out the key and opened the security door and asked Ji Ning to come in.

Ji Ning's face changed slightly, and she walked into the room with a bowl in her hands.

The expression on the female boss's face suddenly became a little weird. She was about to push Ji Ning's back with both hands, but unexpectedly the push was in vain. Then her arm was pinched hard, and her neck felt cold.

"If you don't want to die, ask your people to put down their weapons."

The female boss's face changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

She glanced at the men in the room and suddenly laughed. The silver bell-like laughter seemed very strange in the silent courtyard.

There were many people standing in the courtyard, each with a machete in his hand and a fierce look on his face. At first glance, they were trying to scare Ji Ning.

"You are not timid. Tell me, what is the purpose of your coming?"

After the female boss smiled, she calmly pushed Ji Ning's hand.

Ji Ning put away the dagger and ignored the scrutinizing glances of the people around her.

"Let's talk about cooperation."

"Which line are you from?" The female boss walked to the chair brought by her men, turned around and sat down. Although her clothes had not changed, her aura was something that no one dared to underestimate.

Ji Ning thought for a moment and replied, "Yu Jian asked me to come."

The female boss' face was slightly startled, then she looked up and looked back. A subordinate behind her quickly stepped forward and answered, "It's the police officer from Pengcheng."

"Oh..." The female boss seemed to suddenly realize, and looked at Ji Ning again, "Are you a cop too?"

"No, freelance photographer."

"I don't see it." The female boss took the teacup handed over by the subordinate, lowered her head and blew on it.

"Been at the base."

The female boss paused slightly and looked up at her, "No wonder, she's very skilled."

"Excellent."

"What did he ask you to come over for?"

"Huang Liu's line is being targeted. He doesn't want to die, so he asked me to come to you."

The female boss was a little surprised in her eyes. She seemed not to have received the message. After taking a sip of tea, she directly returned the tea cup to the subordinate next to her and asked: "Who is targeting you?"

"Security Service."

Although the female boss controlled her expression very well, Ji Ning still saw from her face that she seemed relieved.

It seems that there is also a mole in the Security Bureau.

"That's really unfortunate."

Ji Ning continued: "Yu Jian said that the agents investigated by the Security Bureau this time are from the special department and have taken control of Huang Liu's ship."

When the female boss heard this, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

"stranger?"

Ji Ning nodded slightly.

"What superpower? How strong is it?"

Ji Ning observed her micro-expression and replied: "Three types of superpowers: healing, water and wind. They are very high-level and can cause tsunamis."

The female boss's expression suddenly turned ugly, as if she didn't expect that the Security Bureau would send such a person to investigate them.

After a while, the female boss put away her emotions and looked at Ji Ning again, this time with a more alert look in her eyes, "How do you want to cooperate?"
