Yan Yue explained.

Of course He Ao remembered Lin Chichi.

This girl solved the murder mystery with him on the Verora and the Verora. Although the tea was full of tea, she was able to completely entrust her life to He Ao's hands at the critical moment.

Of course, He Ao was using the identity of 'Hao Yi' at that time.

The only encounter between Lin Chichi and the 'He'ao body' was at the end of the Velora when the body participated in the rescue.

"She's a special correspondent now? What is she doing now?"

He Ao nodded and asked casually.

"Based on the schedule I got from my friend,"

Yan Yue opened the notebook in her hand and took a look, "Her schedule before coming here should be to 'interview' Hao Yi in Newland City State."

These things were not within the scope of work of the Ruodan Research Institute branch, but they were within the scope of what the 'He Department' might ask about, so she was prepared in advance.

"Well, I see,"

He Ao nodded, and he also remembered that the institute did tell him that he wanted to interview 'Hao Yi', but he just didn't know that Lin Chichi was also responsible for this matter.

At this moment, the two of them had reached the door of He Ao's office.

There was a layer of fine dust on the door wrench. He knew this office, but he had hardly ever been here.

He put his hand on the door handle and said casually, "Is this interview and investigation a publicity matter? Let her come over. Then the department here will try to cooperate with her and notify Moonlight and World Tree."

"OK."

Yan Yue nodded.

At this time, He Ao had already turned the door handle and pushed open the office door.

"What department."

Yan Yue on the side suddenly spoke and called out to He Ao.

"Anything else?"

He Ao looked back at her.

Yan Yue opened the notebook with her slender fingers, unfolded a three-inch postcard inside, and handed it to He Ao, "Can you sign it for me?"

He Ao:?

Looking at He Ao's eyes, Yan Yue's serious expression changed slightly. She slowly looked away and said in a weak voice, "I didn't make a completely impulsive decision."

Newland City State·Vinland Island

In a secluded small courtyard by the beach, the clone of He Ao's Hao Yi was sitting on a deck chair in the courtyard and taking a nap.

Due to the time difference, the morning in Jordan is exactly the afternoon in the city-state of Newland.

The twilight shines on the undulating sea, and the sound of waves lapping against the gravel slowly echoes.

The sea in the main world is much quieter and gentler than the dungeon world. Although there are still storms on the sea, they are not everywhere like the Storm Sea.

The slightly moist wind was like a gentle hand across He Ao's cheek.

This small beachside courtyard has become He Ao's 'residence' on Vinland Island.

The three major organizations had already 'given' Newland City State to 'Hao Yi' last time. In theory, the entire Newland City State is now under the management of 'Hao Yi'.

This kind of management is different from Ruodan's broad 'management'. He Ao can intervene in all the affairs of the entire city-state, and he has essentially built his own management team.

However, as the de facto ruler of this city, he still prefers to sit in the small courtyard by the sea and enjoy the breeze.

Bang bang bang—

There was a crisp knock on the door.

"Please come in."

He Ao spoke slowly.

The person outside opened the door carefully and peered into the courtyard until she saw He Ao sitting in the center of the courtyard looking at her and smiling.

"Dang-dang-rang-dang!"

The girl entered the courtyard, closed the door, walked quickly to He Ao, and turned around excitedly.

The light floral skirt fluttered in the wind, revealing the girl's delicate white calves, "Brother Hao Yi, it's me! Surprise or surprise!"

"There is a seat in front of you, reserved for you."

He Ao raised his hand and pointed to the chair opposite.

"Hey! Aren't you surprised to see me?"

The girl pouted, sat across from He Ao, and then took out a small and exquisite 13-inch laptop from her bag, "I tried so hard to hide it for a long time, and even begged the dean not to tell you it was me.

Coming."

He Ao looked at the girl's cunning little fox-like eyes, nodded slightly, and said without any fluctuation in his tone, "I'm very surprised."

"Wow, what an emotional surprise,"

Lin Chichi glanced at the teapot on the induction cooker on the table in front of him, opened the lid, and found that there was no tea.

Then she naturally picked up the tea leaves and poured them into the teapot with one hand. She picked up the kettle next to her with the other hand and poured water into the teapot.

"Brother Hao Yi, should your tea be lighter or stronger?"

"It will be all right."

He Ao said calmly.

"Then I'll cook it lighter?"

While she was talking, she poured tea leaves and glanced at He Ao's cheek. After making sure that He Ao's face did not change after hearing the word "light", she carefully stopped her movements, turned on the induction cooker and started making tea.

.

After making tea, she took out an insulated lunch box from her bag, placed it on the table, and looked at He Ao with a smile, "Brother Hao Yi, guess what this is."

He Ao glanced at the lunch box and said casually, "Xiaolongbao?"

The girl's eyes widened slightly for an instant, then she blinked quickly and opened the lid of the lunch box, revealing the steaming steamed dumplings inside.

"If my brother is so smart, there will be no surprises."

"Where did you get the xiaolongbao?"

He Ao raised his hand, and the girl naturally took out the chopsticks from her bag and handed them to him.

In the Verora, he only ordered three kinds of dishes, twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, and xiaolongbao. It was obvious that Lin Chichi remembered his preferences.

The first two were dinner dishes, and it was already past dinner time, and Lin Chichi was not sure whether He Ao had eaten or not.

Only xiaolongbao can barely be regarded as a hot snack, and Lin Chi Chi picked up the lunch box very lightly, and it was obviously not like he was bringing delicious mapo tofu and twice-cooked pork with rice, so He Ao directly guessed xiaolongbao.

.

"This is Chi Chi's little secret."

Lin Chichi watched He Ao pick up the steamed dumplings and smiled.

He Ao glanced at her, picked up the steamed dumplings and put them into his mouth without asking any questions.

The soft and thin dough is torn apart instantly in your mouth, bursting with rich and fragrant juice.

The dough is very light and soft. It is most likely freshly made and the buns are freshly made. The buns were cooked not long ago, so use an insulated lunch box to keep them fresh.

There are one or two small steamed dumplings from China in the city-state of Newland. He Ao has eaten them, but the taste is not very good. The steamed dumplings made by the Chinese Restaurant in the Tia Empire have basically been modified. They should be Chinese.

Made by a local chef.

He raised his head and glanced at Lin Chi Chi, "Did you bring a chef?"

"As expected, I can't hide it from my brother."

Lin Chi blinked his eyes and did not deny it.

He Ao glanced at her satchel and said, "You brought more than just a pair of chopsticks, right? Let's eat together."

"hey-hey."

The girl did not refuse. She took out a pair of chopsticks from her bag, picked up a small steamed bun, and put it into her mouth. She narrowed her eyes into crescent moons and said, "It's so delicious."

"You little girl,"

He Ao looked at her and said with a smile, "He is full of evil thoughts."

If she really wanted to offer a treasure, she would have taken out her insulated lunch box as soon as she came in, but she just held back, took out her computer, and even made tea before taking out her lunch box.

The idea is to draw He Ao's attention first, and then create a surprise to highlight one's 'intentions'.

"Chichi has no ability and is not strong,"

Lin Chi Chi blinked his eyes and picked up a small steamed bun, "I just have to work hard in other places."
