Chapter 621 Please Listen to the Questions

What is pork hock? As we all know, the common meats are chicken, duck, fish, pork, beef, and lamb, but the word "pork hock" usually refers to pork.

Because chickens and ducks are both called chicken legs and duck legs, fish don't have legs, sheep's legs are called sheep legs or sheep hooves, and cows are similar, only pigs' legs are described as elbows.

Before she came in, he gave her a thousand and one instructions outside the door, but Miss Yuan forgot about it as soon as she turned her head. This guy is really good at nothing but eating and can't do anything right.

Fortunately, she didn't say those two words directly, so there's still room for maneuver.

Seeing this, the three quickly stepped forward and pulled Miss Yuan back. Lin Mo hurriedly said, "Ahem, boss, do you have any roasted lamb leg?"

He hadn't even looked at the menu, so how would he know if they had it or not? But whether they did or not, he had to get through to them first.

The kitchen owner's eyes had started to look strange when he heard Miss Yuan's words, but he returned to normal after hearing this.

Although everyone knew that Miss Yuan's "elbow" might have referred to pork, since Lin Mo had already smoothed things over, most people wouldn't delve into it further.

Even if you accidentally mention the word "pork," as long as you sincerely apologize, the shopkeeper usually won't do anything. After all, the majority of people here are Han Chinese, and since they chose to open a shop in this place, they must have encountered this kind of thing before.

"We don't have roasted lamb leg, but we have lamb soup and lamb stew with bread," the owner, wearing a white hat, said with a smile as he came out.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief and quickly gestured for the group to sit down: "Boss, do you have a menu? Let's take a look!"

Soon, the owner brought over the menu. During this time, he noticed Miss Yuan's belly and was stunned for a moment: "Pregnant?"

"Oh right, I'm pregnant. Can I eat it?" Lin Mo asked.

Upon hearing this, the owner nodded: "It's edible, don't worry, all my ingredients are fresh. But if the pregnant woman has any dietary restrictions, please let me know in advance!"

"No, no, I can eat anything," Miss Yuan said excitedly.

Seeing this, the boss asked somewhat uncertainly, "You look quite young. How old are you this year?"

“I’m 25,” Miss Yuan said, raising her hand.

The boss immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, I thought you were fifteen. Are you sure you're really 25?"

"Really? What's wrong? Do you want me to show you my ID?" Miss Yuan said, somewhat unconvinced.

The boss waved his hand repeatedly, then looked at Lin Mo and the class monitor, saying, "No need, no need. Your husband doesn't seem like a bad person."

Lin Mo:
That's hurtful. Isn't that blatantly accusing him of abducting a minor?

Fortunately, although the boss had suspicions, he didn't call the police like the Chaoyang residents did.

The four of them then ordered four dishes and a soup, and each person got a bowl of mutton stew. The taste was okay, but not particularly amazing either; it was a bit bland. However, the cleanliness and hygiene were very satisfying.

Most importantly, the owner knew there was a pregnant woman among the food and still dared to feed her, so the ingredients must have been fine.

"No, what does this boss mean? Why is he looking at me like that?" Miss Yuan asked in a low voice while adding chili peppers to her bowl.

Lin Mo rolled his eyes at her, and He Xiaoyue laughed, "What else could it be? They think you look like a minor, and they suspect Lin Mo might be a criminal!"

"Huh? What's with his eyes? I already said I'm 25! Why doesn't he believe me? No, why doesn't he believe me?" Miss Yuan said indignantly.

Hearing this, the class monitor swallowed what was in his mouth and said, "Because of your performance just now, it's hard to believe you're 25. The three of us are college students, and we didn't even raise our hands when answering questions, with such clear yet foolish eyes. What do you think?"

“Prejudice, you’re being prejudiced. I may look young, but with my intelligence, how could I look like a child? This boss has no taste at all,” Miss Yuan muttered.

Lin Mo chuckled at this, "In that case, let me test your intelligence, Sister Yuan. Let's see if your IQ matches your appearance."

Miss Yuan glared at him: "Come on then, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo spread his palms out: "Please listen to the question."

Miss Yuan: "Please give me a question!"

Lin Mo: "If 1 equals 4, 2 equals 8, 3 equals 12, what does 4 equal?" Miss Yuan sneered and answered without hesitation: "4 equals 16. Do you really think I'm a primary school student?"

Lin Mo: "Wrong!"

"Wrong? Are you kidding me? Don't give me any riddles, I'm telling you," Miss Yuan said, glaring at him.

In response, the class monitor chimed in, "You're wrong, 4 equals 1."

“Yeah, Sister Yuan, your ceiling doesn’t seem very high either. Lin Mo already said that 1 equals 4, so 4 must equal 1. And this isn’t a riddle, it’s math, is it middle school or elementary school? I’ve kind of forgotten!” He Xiaoyue added from the side.

Miss Yuan:
Then she noticed the three of them looking at her with strange eyes, and soon Miss Yuan's face began to turn red at a speed visible to the three of them.

Yes, she was angry. She felt like she had been tricked, but she had no proof.

Not only that, this actually shows that her intelligence and appearance are a good match, which makes Miss Yuan feel even more uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Lin Mo quickly lowered his head and ate, not daring to speak, for fear that Miss Yuan would overturn the table.

But I'm already certain in my heart that although Miss Yuan is 25 years old in terms of physical age, her mental age is at most fifteen. After all, who in their 20s could do so many abstract things?

Moreover, if he asked Liu Ruyan this question, she would definitely be able to answer it. Even the class monitor and He Xiaoyue answered it, which already speaks volumes.

Meanwhile, at the police station where Zhao Yun was located, things were quite lively.

Because of what happened this morning, Li Dafu and his wife discussed it and felt that the police had clues about their daughter but were not telling them. Of course, they also had other concerns. In short, they didn't know which awful relative had suggested that they contact a reporter and come over.

Reporters, of course, are always quick to respond to news; they'd naturally come and see if there was any.

Inside the office, Director Liu was also having a major headache.

"Xiao Zhao, what exactly do they want?"

"What do you think? They want to know about Li Zhaodi, so we asked them to come in, but they refused. They even brought reporters. They're clearly trying to put pressure on us. Director Liu, what do you plan to do?" Zhao Yun said with a smile.

Seeing this, Director Liu glared at Zhao Yun: "You're still laughing? I told you to go and do a follow-up visit this morning, and this is what happened."

“Hey? You can’t say that, Director Liu. The body cameras were on at the time, and my tone was perfectly normal. The process was legal and compliant. They were just dodging the issue. And, to be honest, this family’s mental fortitude is really lacking. I had just raised a slight suspicion, and they exploded. I’m sure there’s something wrong with this family,” Zhao Yun said confidently.

There was no trace of worry on his face; in fact, he even seemed about to laugh.

An ordinary police officer would indeed be afraid of this kind of trouble, especially since even reporters came. But she wasn't afraid. First, she had strong connections, and second, all her procedures were legal and compliant, with no violations whatsoever. If the online public opinion escalated, she could simply release the body camera footage. In short, it was easy to resolve.

"Hopefully we can find some clues in Nanyang!" Director Liu said with a hint of helplessness.

Just then, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and police officer Xiao Wu rushed in anxiously: "Director Liu, I have news!"

"What news? Why are you in such a hurry? Tell me slowly," Director Liu said calmly, taking a sip of tea.

Upon hearing this, Officer Wu said, "News has come from Nanyang that on the day Li Zhaodi went missing, which was also the day Lin Wushuang was found, a human trafficking gang of four people was arrested in Nanyang."

One of the people testified that they had another child to pick up, but when the police went to the scene, they couldn't find the child.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun suddenly stood up, and Director Liu even spat out the tea he was drinking.

"Did the statement mention the other person's identity?" Director Liu asked hurriedly.

Police officer Xiao Wu shook his head: "No, they only said the other party is a couple who want to sell a girl! All the details are here, please take a look."

As he spoke, he handed over a stack of documents. Upon seeing this, Director Liu and Zhao Yun quickly stepped forward.

"Ha~ I knew these two were suspicious, well, they walked right into the trap!" Zhao Yun said angrily.

Director Liu: "Calm down!"
