Round 27, Day 1. 9:00 AM.
Mike, ranked tenth on Arica’s detective leaderboard, was on the rooftop of Alice Apartnt, holding a black telescope tightly with both hands, staring at so unknown direction.
After observing for several minutes, he put down the telescope.
He muttered in confusion,
“Strange, do the people living here never go out?”
Since then, Shen Xing was forced to give him access to apartnt 404.
Mike had been staying here for four days.
During these four days, he thoroughly observed Alice Apartnt from inside and out.
He found nothing special or particularly strange about Alice Apartnt.
It was just a very ordinary high-end apartnt complex.
The only odd thing was that there were very few parked cars or other vehicles around.
Besides that, he couldn’t see any residents of Alice Apartnt going outside.
No one going to work, doing business, or going out for fun?
Especially now, it was already 9 o’clock in the morning.
Not a single person had been seen leaving.
Even the security guards at the entrance were bored and dozing off.
This was the one thing Mike couldn’t understand.
Maybe it was because there weren’t many residents in Alice Apartnt!
He decided to observe for a few more days.
Just at that mont, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him—the sharp clicking of high heels.
He put down the telescope and turned around, genuinely surprised.
He hadn’t expected the owner of those footsteps to be a stunningly beautiful Chinese woman with a great figure.
This Chinese beauty had long black wavy hair and was wearing a white camisole dress today.
Her fair and delicate collarbones and the fullness at her chest made it impossible to look away.
“Hello, do you speak Chinese?”
The Chinese beauty walked toward Mike, greeting him warmly and kindly.
“I do. What’s up, miss?”
“Oh, nothing. You just look unfamiliar. Are you a new resident here recently?”
The Chinese beauty asked.
Mike shrugged, “Not a resident. Just staying here temporarily.”
“Is that so?”
“Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My na is Qin Yi. What’s yours?”
“My na is Mike.”
Indeed, this Chinese beauty was none other than Qin Yi!
“Oh, Mike, where are you from?”
“Arica.”
“Oh, Arica? It must be a fun place, right?”
Mike thought for a mont and said, “According to your saying, the land of the free, gunfights every day.”
Qin Yi let out a soft laugh, fully embodying a gentle lady.
At this mont, she pointed to a huge object beside Mike that looked like a monocular telescope and asked,
“What’s that?”
Mike answered, “It’s an astronomical telescope. I like stargazing, and the rooftop here is a great place for that.”
Indeed, besides the handheld telescope, Mike also had a decorative astronomical telescope by his side.
The purpose of the astronomical telescope was just an excuse.
Without this thing, how could he explain why a foreigner standing on the rooftop would often use a telescope to look at distant things?
He could easily be mistaken for a spy!
It might sound fantastical, but Mike knew a fellow detective.
That detective once accepted a case commissioned by Chinese nationals and investigated an incident here in China.
He was seen by enthusiastic locals holding a telescope and constantly watching unknown things.
People feared he was a spy and reported him to the police.
So Mike learned from that colleague’s lesson.
“Stars, huh? I like them too, but I’ve never used such professional equipnt.”
“By the way, do you want so water?”
Qin Yi ca over not empty-handed but carrying a supermarket plastic bag with several bottles of mineral water and drinks inside.
“No thanks, I’m not thirsty.”
Faced with such a beautiful woman offering water, Mike behaved unlike a man and actually refused.
Mike had a rule: he would never eat or drink anything given by strangers.
Why?
Because of the bloody lessons from other senior colleagues.
Of course, the current situation was different because the water was offered by a stunningly beautiful woman.
Although Mike was a foreigner and had different aesthetics from Chinese people, in his eyes, Qin Yi was definitely a super beauty.
Especially since Qin Yi’s figure was amazing, unlike many Chinese won who, despite having delicate faces, were stick-thin.
Mike did not like that stick-thin body type.
At this mont, Mike suddenly thought of his teacher.
His teacher was also a detective.
Even today, Mike felt that his teacher’s overall abilities far surpassed his own.
However, his teacher had a fatal flaw.
He was lustful.
Very much so!
n being lustful was normal. It was common.
But his teacher’s obsession with won had reached a hopeless state.
To put it simply, if his teacher’s IQ was 200, when he encountered a beautiful woman, his IQ would instantly drop.
The more beautiful the woman, the more his IQ would fall.
No exaggeration, just speaking of the present mont, if his teacher t Qin Yi, his IQ would probably drop from 200 to 50.
Not an exaggeration.
For example, if Qin Yi offered water, his teacher would definitely accept it and drink it with a smiling face.
His teacher had more than one student. All of them used to tell their teacher not to beco like an idiot when seeing won.
But it was useless.
In the end, their teacher’s detective career was ruined by a woman.
Therefore, Mike would never make the sa lustful mistake.
“Don’t want water? How about a drink? This one tastes pretty good.”
Qin Yi saw Mike refuse her water and offered him a bottle of drink instead.
Mike still shook his head, “No thanks, I’m not thirsty. You drink it yourself.”
Qin Yi nodded and took back the drink.
After chatting a while longer with Mike, Qin Yi left the rooftop.
Mike didn’t suspect or pay too much attention to Qin Yi’s approach.
Because in China, he was often approached by enthusiastic local girls, so passionate it was scary. He rembered being stunned the first ti it happened. After all, he looked very ordinary, not a handso guy. Why would girls be so warm to him?
Of course, this ti’s approach was different—this ti it was a super beauty.
Nothing else.
Qin Yi returned to room 303.
After returning to 303, Qin Kelian saw her sister frowning and asked, “Sis, is that foreigner still on the rooftop?”
Qin Yi shook her head, “He is.”
Qin Kelian was indifferent, “If he’s there, then why do you look so lost?”
Qin Yi sighed, “Because... I failed. It didn’t work.”
A flash of surprise appeared in Qin Kelian’s pretty eyes. She was originally lying on the sofa but suddenly sat up straight.
“Sis, don’t tell that this new foreigner, like Jiang Ran, is immune to sedatives?”
Qin Yi shook her head, “No. It’s just that this guy didn’t accept my water or drink at all!”
Mike had been noticed by Qin Yi and Qin Kelian shortly after entering the apartnt.
So this rooftop visit was a hunt.
There were sedatives in the water and drinks.
But unfortunately, the other party didn’t take the bait at all.
“What? Didn’t accept? Oh my god, sis, with your beauty, there actually exists a man who can resist?!”
Qin Kelian was utterly shocked!
Because this had never happened before.
No one had ever been able to resist her sister’s beauty and refuse water or drinks offered by such a super beauty!!!
