Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 110 Detective Zhuge Dali

Wanyu, pulling Curry Sauce along, tiptoed to her seat.

Fortunately, their seats were not far from Zhanbo and the others, and Wanyu and Curry Sauce could even hear Zhanbo and the little girl whispering to each other.

Unfortunately, their seats were right in front of Zhanbo and the little girl.

"How can we sit in front of them..." Curry Sauce muttered softly, but Wan Yu quickly covered her mouth.

When Zhanbo heard a familiar voice, he looked up and looked around. He found that the entire theater was filled with elementary school students, with only a few parents who were willing to accompany their children to watch educational films.

The most unusual pair was the high school student and her stepmother dressed in the front seat. It was unclear whether they were sisters or mother and daughter.

But it doesn't matter, it's none of my business anyway.

"What's wrong?" Dali asked, looking at Zhanbo who was in a daze.

Zhanbo shook his head: "It's nothing, I thought I ran into someone I knew."

[That was close...]

Wan Yu held up her index finger, indicating that Curry Sauce should not speak. She quickly took out a mask from her bag and handed it to Curry Sauce.

The two silently put on their masks. Now, as long as they didn't make a sound, even if they walked openly in front of Zhanbo, he probably wouldn't recognize them.

Even so, the two, feeling guilty, still tried their best to shrink back and keep their heads down, afraid of being discovered by Zhanbo.

This unusual behavior caused Dali, who was directly behind him, to tilt his head thoughtfully.

Curry Sauce glanced back slightly, took out her phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Wanyu.

[Delicious Curry Sauce]: Why are there only Zhanbo and this little girl? Where is the older sister?

[The Little Princess Who Ran Away from Home]: Maybe she went to the toilet. There's still an empty seat next to Zhanbo.

Curry Sauce glanced at the theater and saw that it was only two-thirds full, feeling relieved.

[Delicious curry sauce]: And this is considered hard to get a ticket... Could Zhanbo have been fooled by scalpers?

Luckily, I only spent twenty yuan on the ticket; I'm really thrifty.

Curry Sauce, holding over two hundred yuan worth of snacks, thought happily.

Wan Yu looked up and glanced at Zhan Bo, who was still whispering to the little girl next to him, completely unaware that she was being taken advantage of by scalpers. She sighed and typed.

【The runaway princess】: That must be it, poor Zhanbo.

Wanyu and Curry Sauce had been trying to eavesdrop on what Zhanbo and the little girl were talking about, but what they heard was something they had never heard of before: formulas and content.

Wanyu had a basic understanding of terms like "gravitational slingshot," "gravitational waves," and "Kerr black hole model," but when it came to all sorts of nonsensical things like "anti-de Sitter space," "probability waves," "Einstein-Rosen bridge," and "Tipler cylinder," she was completely bewildered.

She really wanted to stand up and ask Zhanbo and the little girl: With your level of knowledge, is it really necessary for you to watch this kind of educational film for teenagers?

If Wan Yu, who is already considered well-educated, is so devastated, then Curry Sauce, whose grades have never been passing, must be even more so.

Curry Sauce desperately covered her ears, trying to prevent this filthy knowledge from entering her empty but childlike mind.

Please don't let this knowledge, which is useless to me, pollute my brain.

"Ugh..." Curry Sauce let out a low, disgusted groan.

She couldn't take it anymore, so she pulled out her phone and started typing wildly.

[Delicious Curry Sauce]: I've already graduated, why do I have to be tortured by these geography facts again?

[The runaway little princess]: ...Although I don't understand either, they must be talking about physics and math.

[Delicious Curry Sauce]: No matter what it is, these two are simply freaks!

The curry sauce roared silently.

[Delicious Curry Sauce]: I know Zhanbo is a genius, but what's with that little girl? Are all elementary school students these days so amazing?

【Delicious curry sauce】: The way they chat makes me feel like an NPC who came to Earth just to make up the numbers.

[The Runaway Princess]: Maybe this little girl is a genius too... I'm starting to suspect that this little girl is the person Zhanbo most wanted to invite to watch this educational film tonight, and that Xiong Nini is probably just a parent and guardian.

[Delicious Curry Sauce]: I don't know, I can't figure it out. Right now, all I can think about is the six types of strings they just mentioned. Why is the entire universe made up of strings?

【The Runaway Princess】: It's not six kinds of strings, it's six kinds of string theory.

[The Runaway Princess]: Please don't ask me what these six types of string theory are. I already don't understand them from the "gravity slingshot" part.

Wan Yu and Curry Sauce exchanged a glance. Although one of them wore black-rimmed glasses with lenses thicker than wine bottles, and the other wore sunglasses so their eyes were obscured, they both seemed to see the helplessness of being violated by knowledge in each other's eyes.

However, this sense of powerlessness did not last long, because the educational film that everyone had been waiting for finally began.

Zhanbo and the little girl stopped their discussion and began to watch the movie quietly as it started.

When this extremely dry and boring educational film was played, Wan Yu and Curry Sauce, who should have hated it, absurdly felt happy and satisfied at the same time.

Even if the educational film is just as dry and boring as they imagined, at least they can understand it.

Finally, I no longer have to feel powerless, like a good-for-nothing who knows nothing.

However, this sense of happiness and satisfaction quickly faded away over time, replaced by endless loneliness and emptiness.

Wan Yu's eyes were slightly closed, and her head, tied in a high ponytail, bobbed in mid-air, looking just like someone who was dozing off in high school.

Curry Sauce carefully took off her mask to reveal her mouth, secretly chewing popcorn like a mouse stealing food in the middle of the night, and occasionally taking a big sip of milk tea.

This is what happiness is all about!

Several tens of minutes passed, and there were still more than two hours left until the end of the educational film.

Why are there such long educational videos?!

She ate and drank curry sauce for several tens of minutes, but her seemingly bottomless stomach and her belly that hadn't moved an inch in ages finally succumbed to her useless bladder.

She glanced at Wanyu, who was half asleep, hurriedly typed a message to Wanyu explaining where she was going, and then rushed to the toilet, clutching her stomach.

When Curry Sauce came out of the toilet, she saw Xiong Nini rush up and tightly hug a man whose back she could only see.

Is this Zhanbo?

Isn't he watching an educational film with great interest right now?

No, Zhanbo is clearly half a head taller than this man. And this man looks weak and limp from behind, like he can't handle any nourishment. How could he possibly be the energetic Zhanbo?

Something's up!!!

Curry Sauce took the opportunity to hide around the corner and peek out to watch the passionate couple having an affair not far away.

"Darling, you're finally back." Xiong Nini hugged Ziqiao, half complaining and half feeling sorry for him.

Who goes to the bathroom for tens of minutes before the movie starts?

"Nini, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Ziqiao said weakly, her face pale.

[In his inner world, Ziqiao leaned against the wall with one hand, holding toilet paper in the other, his legs trembling as if he were about to fall flat on his face at any moment.]

[Ziqiao, clutching his stomach with toilet paper in his hand, looked utterly miserable and nearly collapsed: What on earth is going on?]

【I didn't eat anything random outside. Today, to stay in shape, I even ate a honey-dressed vegetable salad. How did I end up with this kind of diarrhea?】

[Several tens of minutes! I spent a whole several tens of minutes in the toilet!]

Several times I almost fell on my backside.

"...Could Mika have drugged me?"

Zi Qiao's voice was trembling and weak, so soft that it took Nini next to her a long time to understand what he was saying.

Looking at Ziqiao's weak and powerless legs, Nini asked with concern, "It's no problem for me to wait a little longer, but are you really okay in this state?"

"If you can't manage, let's skip the movie and go to the hospital first."

"Okay, I can do it." Ziqiao couldn't stand hearing others say he couldn't do it, so he stubbornly patted his chest to show that he had no problem at all.

Just kidding. I've been preparing for so long, all for home run tonight. If I end up in the hospital, all my preparations will be for nothing.

No, absolutely not!

"Yes, yes, you're the best." Nini smiled and said with doting eyes.

"Where are Zhanbo and Dali? Have they gone in to watch the educational film yet?"

Nini teased, "I've been thinking about you the whole time, I don't have time to think about anyone else. Zhanbo and Dali are already in the science and education theater, I'm the only one waiting for you, my nemesis."

Nini's tone was extremely alluring, especially when she said the word "enemy," which made Ziqiao's soul flutter.

Although I don't particularly like women much older than myself, this mature and beautiful woman is definitely more attractive than a little girl.

That's why so many people like stepmother literature.

……

Curry Sauce tilted her head and listened for a long time. Although she didn't know why the man was speaking so softly, she managed to hear about 70-80% of what Nini was saying.

Let alone Ziqiao, even a proper sixteen-year-old girl like Curry Sauce couldn't help but feel weak in the knees when she heard Nini say sweet words like "I miss you," "my nemesis," "I love you," and "you're the best."

The same sweet words sound like a sweet and sour passion fruit when spoken by a teenage girl in her twenties, but like a ripe peach when spoken by a woman in her thirties.

It was so sweet!

If someone were to take off Curry Sauce's sunglasses right now, they would see that her eyes are sparkling.

Curry Sauce watched with a learning mindset as Nini abandoned her daughter and Zhanbo to flirt with a strange man. The explosive nature of their words and the excessive sweetness made Curry Sauce feel like she had discovered a new world.

Even at the very end, Nini tiptoed and gently kissed the man's cheek.

"What's going on here?" Curry Sauce muttered under her breath. "Could this older sister have been watching an educational film with Zhanbo and his daughter one minute, and then using the excuse of going to the bathroom to come out and spend time with another man the next?"

Curry Sauce was shocked by her own thoughts. Now she understood how other people managed to date so many boyfriends and girlfriends in a year.

She now finally understood why the teacher, after assigning so many worksheets, simply said to the groans of most of the class, "Time can be made."

Look at this older sister, watching two movies in such a short time, spending time with two men, and even bringing her daughter to watch an educational film. This not only strengthens the mother-daughter relationship but also cultivates the little girl's interest in learning... although that prodigious little girl probably doesn't need any learning interest cultivated.

This time planning and arrangement is simply an art!

Otherwise, how could that older sister become an outstanding graduate of Zhanbo University?

Given her time management skills, if she's not a top student, who is?

Seeing Nini help the strange man into another theater, Curry Sauce became even more convinced of her judgment.

She silently noted down the theater number and jogged back to the science and education film theater.

At this moment, Wanyu was still in a state of half-sleep, peaceful and serene. However, Curry Sauce could no longer let Wanyu sleep like that, so she quickly and silently shook Wanyu.

"What's wrong, curry sauce... mmm..." Wan Yu was half asleep when she was shaken awake and unconsciously opened her mouth to speak, but her mouth was tightly covered by curry sauce-soaked hands.

Wan Yu woke up instantly and looked at the woman in sunglasses dressed as a sophisticated urban woman. She instinctively resisted, but after pushing her away, she realized that this seemed to be Curry Sauce in disguise.

"Bang." A low thud sounded as flesh collided with a chair, and the nearby children all turned their heads to look curiously, not to mention Zhanbo and Dali, who were right behind them.

"What's going on?" Zhanbo looked at the scene before him, scratching his head in confusion.

And that voice just now, how come it sounds so much like Wanyu?

Zhanbo's thoughts flashed by like lightning, and indeed they were like lightning.

[Wanyu hates watching educational films, how could she possibly be here?]

So he quickly ignored the commotion caused by Wan Yu and Curry in the front row and focused on watching the educational film again.

How could these things be more interesting than UFOs and aliens?

Curry Sauce clutched her lower back, which had hit the chair after being pushed away by Wan Yu. She wanted to cry out in pain, but her gaze fell on Zhan Bo's curious eyes, so she swallowed the groan that was already rising in her throat.

Curry Sauce looked at Wan Yu, who was full of apologies, and didn't care to say anything more. She just gestured for Wan Yu to follow her out.

Wanyu quickly understood what Curry Sauce meant. She nodded silently, put her hands together in apology to everyone, and then quietly followed Curry Sauce away.

Dali looked at the urban beauty who was forcibly suppressing her screams of pain, and then thought about how she had subconsciously looked in his and Zhanbo's direction when she desperately covered the high school girl's mouth.

Dali slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, a virtual video interface appeared before her, playing her memories.

As Dali's gaze wandered, the video began to fast-forward and jump around at an unknown speed, finally pausing each time on the strange behavior of the two girls who had just left.

[Behaving suspiciously, sneaking around, typical of a guilty conscience – 14.8%]

[They only put on masks after entering the movie theater, and seemed hesitant to speak, opting to chat on their phones the entire time—29.7%]

[While Zhanbo and I were chatting, he looked back in our direction several times, as if he was listening to our discussion – 53.5%]

[While watching educational films, one person slept and the other only ate. As adults and older children, they clearly had no interest in educational films. So why did they choose to buy tickets for them? — 72.8%]

[The first reaction after waking up a companion is to look in their direction, and then tightly cover the companion's mouth to prevent them from making a sound - 84.3%]

Based on the sound just now and the speed at which the person was pushed backward, combined with the material of the movie chair and the human body itself, the impact force can be roughly calculated.

By roughly calculating the pain felt by the other party at that instant through the area of force application, the pain can be briefly classified into levels.

Judging from the other person's micro-expressions, she couldn't possibly have endured this level of pain without any reaction; she must have been forcing herself to remain silent—95.1%

[Whether it's an apology or leaving, remaining silent is the norm – 98.6%]

Dali suddenly looked at Zhanbo and asked, "Did you think you ran into someone you knew just now?"

Zhanbo was taken aback by Dali's question, but he still honestly answered, "Yes."

"Is it because you heard a familiar voice?" Dali continued to ask.

Zhanbo stared wide-eyed with curiosity: "How did you know?"

Dali shook his head vigorously: "No, I was just guessing, just asking."

"oh."

[Zhanbo thought he had met an acquaintance because of the voice - 99.9%]

These two girls were disguised and came for Zhanbo.

Here it comes, a long chapter of 4,600 words.

This is a way of slowly making up for the previous update. If you borrow and return, it's not hard to borrow again.

Otherwise, if Pigeon's severe cold keeps recurring and he doesn't get better, he'll be too embarrassed to ask for leave from everyone in the future.
