"But we don't need to complete the screening, right?"

Putting down the Coke in her hand, Lina said with a serious expression:

"From a probability perspective, the suspect is most likely to be exposed midway, and the actual number of people who need to be screened does not need to be covered."

"Maybe the spy will be found tomorrow?"

She blinked her big eyes and said expectantly.

Gu Qinghan smiled lightly, picked up an onion and chicken ring, and chuckled calmly:

"That's not the case, Miss Lina."

While talking, Gu Qinghan looked at Catalina specifically, and then explained:

"According to Richard, there may not be only one spy infiltrating the Beloved City. In the worst case, there will be two or even three."

"Only when all suspects are screened can we ensure that all spies are caught and the lives of the residents of Beloved City are ensured."

Catalina's eyes were solemn and she nodded slightly.

This was what she originally wanted to say, but Mr. Hohenheim added it first.

This was also her intention.

If Mr. Hohenheim deliberately remained silent, there would be greater suspicion that he was connected to the Pleasure Empire.

After all, avoiding the spy's discovery was his main purpose.

Now it seems that she was worrying too much.

Sure enough, his judgment was correct. Mr. Hohenheim had nothing to do with the Empire of Joy.

"Mr. Hohenheim is right."

Catalina nodded slightly in agreement, and then added:

"Not only that, the enemy may also have special means to conceal our screening."

"Therefore, completing the second round of census before the hot spring banquet is the most basic condition."

"We must complete the screening of all 130 seven people before next Monday."

Liana nodded secretly, agreeing with Miss Catalina's words.

Thinking like this, she looked in Gu Qinghan's direction again, with a nervous gleam in her eyes.

It's also bad news for Mr. Hohenheim.

He must find the Happy Empire spies as soon as possible in order to destroy the evidence in time and clear his suspicion.

If this continues, I'm afraid...

"Miss Catalina, I have thought of a method that can greatly speed up the review."

At this time, Gu Qinghan suddenly spoke, showing a calm smile.

"Oh?"

Catalina's eyes lit up, then she smiled lightly and said:

"By chance, I also thought of a way."

As she spoke, she showed a sly smile, and then smiled leisurely:

"Then let Mr. Hohenheim explain it to you?"

Gu Qinghan stared into Catalina's eyes, his eyes shimmering, and then he slowly tore off a chicken leg.

"In this investigation, we spent the most time not investigating, but rushing."

Calmly, he explained:

"Although Beloved City is not a bustling metropolis, it has strategic depth and covers a huge area."

"If we plan the action route well, we can significantly save action time and focus more on the review process."

"In this way, it is not impossible to end the investigation before the hot spring party."

"What do you think, Miss Caterina?"

Catalina nodded slightly, a smile on her lips.

"That's exactly what I wanted to say."

As she spoke, she took out a huge piece of kraft paper again and raised the corners of her lips slightly:

"So, I prepared a new overhead view of Beloved City."

Chapter 70 Complain to Big Sister!

Catalina took a deep breath and her expression became serious.

"On this map, our two teams' respective action routes have been marked."

"According to my experience, saving action time can probably double the efficiency."

"In other words, during the next six days of review, we may be able to investigate twenty red-named suspects every day."

Catalina stretched out a finger and said word by word:

"In this way, it is entirely possible to complete the second round of screening of all members before the hot spring banquet begins."

Gu Qinghan smiled faintly, nodded and continued:

"Miss Catalina is right."

Glancing at the map, you can see the dense red and blue lines running through the entire piece of vellum. It is obvious that Miss Caterina spent a lot of time on it.

Being able to eliminate the dangers of seven suspects in one day and also create this map...

He is truly a genius inspector of Beloved City, very efficient.

Much faster than him.

"It's just that there's something I don't quite understand. I beg Miss Catalina to enlighten me."

"Oh?"

Catalina smiled playfully and said slowly: "Mr. Hohenheim, please speak."

Gu Qinghan slowly raised his head, stared into Catalina's deep eyes, and said word by word:

"Why does Ms. Ombudsman have to let me talk about this matter?"

Catalina was startled for a moment, then smiled meaningfully.

"Your intuition is very keen."

As she spoke, she glanced at little Lina who was feasting, and her eyes gradually darkened.

"My relationship with little Lina is not very good. She doesn't trust me if I explain it alone."

"Would Mr. Hohenheim believe me if I said that?"

Faintly, the corners of Catalina's lips slightly raised, outlining a hidden smile.

"what?"

Little Lina swallowed a big mouthful of chicken nuggets and choked. She quickly drank the happy water and looked at Catalina with dull eyes.

How did it get involved in her?

Lina's face was filled with the word "confused".

Is her relationship with Miss Catalina really that bad?

As Mr. Hohenheim said?

Gu Qinghan squinted his eyes and scanned every microexpression on Catalina's face, not missing any detail.

However, for Katarina, who has mastered "Tracker", she is the one who knows best how to decipher lies.

Naturally, she is also the person best able to conceal lies.

"Okay, I'll trust you for now."

Spreading his hands, Gu Qinghan gave up on this issue.

"Haha, Mr. Hohenheim understands girls' thoughts very well~"

Licking the corners of her lips gently, Catalina smiled, picked up a cup of strawberry ice cream, and took a sip to enjoy the delicious taste.

"Well!"

Little Lina trembled, and her expression quickly dropped as she watched her favorite ice cream being taken over first.

I obviously ordered it first!

"I'm going to order another, bigger and more expensive ice cream!"

Little Lina pouted, grabbed the map with one hand, and started writing the name of the sundae in an inconspicuous corner with a pen.

"Hmph, Sister Catalina will order takeout directly to my house later. Don't forget to pay the bill!"

There was a wry smile on Catalina's lips, and she couldn't help but shake her head.

This little guy is still a foodie as always.

but……

Why did this guy suddenly think of ordering takeout?

A sense of violation made Catalina's expression suddenly freeze.

No, wait.

--Could it be that?

Catalina slowly raised her head first and looked at Little Lina who was writing furiously in the corner of the map, and even covered her sight with a small hand.

That look seemed more like he was trying to convey some kind of message to her than he was writing the name of the food out of anger.

"Lena, why don't you just order from the menu?"

Catalina frowned, her eyes twinkling.

"Hmph, I don't want you to see me!"

She bit her lip lightly with her silver teeth, her eyes flashed nervously, and she was writing quickly and seriously.

This time, Katarina's sense of disobedience was even stronger.

Suddenly, the small store was filled with an oppressive silence.

Catalina narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at Lina's little hand, vaguely feeling that the violation was becoming more and more intense.

At the same time, a rhythmic vibration sounded from the corner of the table——

clatter!clatter!clatter!

The index finger tapped lightly, Lianna was yawning boredly, and tapped the corner of the table lightly with her other hand.

Three knocks are the secret signal.

Gu Qinghan had no expression on his face, nodded slightly and imperceptibly, picked up a fried chicken leg, and glanced at Little Lina's position.

He naturally understood what Lina was going to do.

In fact, from the moment Xiao Lina picked up the pen to write, he understood the little thoughts in Xiao Lina's heart.

Since today, Lina has had only one purpose from beginning to end.

Expose his evil deeds and send him to an underground prison.

To achieve this, a third party's presence is required.

And now, with Catalina right in front of us, it was the best time.

However, all this was expected by Gu Qinghan.

"Miss Lina, have you finished writing?"

Calmly, Gu Qinghan took a sip of freshly squeezed juice and said unhurriedly.

"Well……"
