“New skill!” Chen Shu carefully evaluated it. To put it simply, this skill significantly enhanced his ear, nose, and eye functions. Then, a light interface appeared before Chen Shu.

Chen Shu shook his head slightly, and the interface vanished.
“Brother, come on, it’s your turn for the interview,” Su Xiaoxiao’s voice interrupted Chen Shu.
“Coming.”
The seventh episode ended here. That evening, after the staff had left, Wang Zheng took Su Xiaoxiao and Chen Shu to a small shop called “Honghuo Stinky Tofu” at the entrance of the western suburbs. This shop was located by the side of the road, with a two-story house behind it.
“Your performance in the program really impressed me. Now that it’s over, let me treat you both to a nice meal. I hope to win against you in the next episode,” Wang Zheng said with a smile.
Chen Shu rolled his eyes at him. “So, street-side stinky tofu, huh? Captain Wang, you’re so stingy. Our Xiaoxiao’s a big star, shouldn’t you treat her to something fancy?”
“Ah, you don’t get it,” Wang Zheng waved his hand. “As a big star, she’s probably tired of all that fancy food. Instead, it’s this kind of street food she rarely gets to try.”
Chen Shu was screaming inside, “I’ve never eaten this before!”
Su Xiaoxiao, “It’s fine, brother. I’m not picky, let’s just eat here.”
“Xiao Tang,” Wang Zheng raised his hand and called to a man sitting behind the counter. “Three orders of stinky tofu.”
Chen Shu was taken aback and asked, “Officer Wang, looks like you come here often for stinky tofu, you even know the owner.”
“It’s not like that,” Wang Zheng shook his head, then moved his chair a bit closer to Chen Shu and lowered his voice. “The shop owner’s name is Tang Bin. About three months ago, he came to the police station to report a case. Over time, we got familiar with each other.”
“Was his shop vandalized? Did someone cause trouble here?” Chen Shu asked.
“No,” Wang Zheng’s expression suddenly became serious. “His wife, Qi Dan, went missing three months ago. We still haven’t found her, no one knows where she went.”
Chen Shu asked, “Didn’t the surveillance cameras capture anything?”
Wang Zheng nodded. “Yeah, it’s strange. It’s like she just disappeared into thin air.”
At that moment, the shop owner, Tang Bin, brought over three plates of stinky tofu and placed them on the table. As he got closer, Chen Shu saw the man’s face clearly.
He looked about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing an oversized white T-shirt, stained with oil. He looked exhausted, with dark circles under his eyes, clearly worn out.
It was understandable, his wife had been missing for months, with no leads, which must have drained him emotionally.
“Enjoy,” Tang Bin forced a smile, then leaned next to Wang Zheng and asked, “Captain Wang, have you made any progress on my wife’s case?”
Wang Zheng said apologetically, “Our team is still investigating, don’t worry, Xiao Tang, we’ll definitely get to the bottom of it.”
“Okay, okay.” Tang Bin replied, then returned to his stand.
“Come on, eat a little.” Wang Zheng pushed the stinky tofu in front of Su Xiaoxiao and Chen Shu.
“Mm.” Chen Shu picked up his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of stinky tofu. But as soon as he brought it to his mouth, he stopped.
It stank, It was no ordinary stench!
The tofu had been deep-fried to a blackish hue, and inside the tofu, it seemed like there were strands of hair mixed in.
