Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Restoring Points

Although Chen Yu felt helpless, Zhou Shengtao had already spoken like that; he couldn't really refuse, especially since it involved the lives of over a dozen people, a matter of great importance!

"Alright, I can try, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to sketch it out."

Zhou Shengtao's face was filled with excitement, "Let's go right now!"

Just as he grabbed Chen Yu's arm, Zhou Shengtao saw Tang Xiaowei standing next to them.

"Little girl, you were the one who came with Chen last time, right? Come with me too!"

Tang Xiaowei was somewhat depressed, "I'm just here to eat!"

Zhou Shengtao didn't care about that, the case was urgent and he needed personnel.

When Chen Yu arrived at the relevant department, he realized that this was probably a typical serial murder case.

Each victim had been precisely slashed across the femoral artery, bleeding to death from the excessive blood loss.

From the photos of the victims laid on the table, the murderer appeared to be left-handed.

However, this person was extremely cautious, always wearing a mask during the crimes and deliberately avoiding all security cameras.

Given the existing conditions, Chen Yu could only rely on his intelligence and eyesight, which were at the human limit, to reluctantly sketch out a contour.

As for the specific features of the face, Chen Yu was powerless.

This guy had completely covered his entire face.

It was simply impossible to infer his appearance based on any facial feature.

Chen Yu and Tang Xiaowei discussed while they sketched, managing to draw a rough portrait of the suspect based on his physique.

For Zhou Shengtao, this was already a major breakthrough; at least it could narrow down their investigative scope.

As he was leaving, Zhou Shengtao held onto Chen Yu's hand tightly.

"Chen, there are many details about this case that I cannot tell you for now, but it has had a huge impact on Suzhou City and even the whole country. If the suspect isn't apprehended soon, more people will die."

Hearing this, Chen Yu understood the severity of the situation and knew that if he didn't intervene, Zhou Shengtao would come looking for him again.

"Don't worry, I'll be on call whenever you need me."

After a bit of small talk, Chen Yu and Tang Xiaowei went back to the shop.

Su Rui didn't go back today; instead, she helped out in the shop.

The first phase of their studio's work was complete; now they just needed to build on the foundation they had laid and continue producing animations, so they were relatively at ease.

When Chen Yu returned, he found that the convenience store across the street was dismantling its milk tea section.

The milk tea shop's franchisee sat in front of the store, smoking a cigarette with a look of helplessness on his face.

He never dreamed that what would defeat him wasn't a competitor, but the free soy milk offered by a marinade shop.

The staff who had been sent to cause trouble in Chen Yu's shop had been arrested, and naturally, he, as the boss, also had to be held accountable.

As a result, the milk tea shop couldn't continue operating.

"Husband, let me tell you some good news. This afternoon, all of the 'Fang Yuan Milk Tea' shops within an eight-kilometer radius centered on our shop—not just them, but all milk tea shops—have closed down!"

Chen Yu wasn't the least bit surprised, and there was no change in his facial expression.

This was business, and competition in the world of business was just like this, survival of the fittest!

Nevertheless, he still felt a bit uncomfortable because what he used to eliminate his competitors was something free. In a sense, it could be considered malicious competition.

"I'm afraid only in Suzhou City would you find such a pattern!" Su Rui said, resting her chin on one hand as she watched the animations, scrolling on the TV.

"This milk tea brand was set up by the up-and-coming star Fang Yuan in the entertainment circle! She must have tapped into some big capital backer with the idea of fishing for money using this channel. She even wanted to use my animation for advertising; I rejected her,"

It had been a long time since Chen Yu had heard the name Fang Yuan.

Hearing it again, there were no ripples in his heart.

To him, the Fang Yuan of now was like a stranger.

Tong Ya unconsciously glanced at Chen Yu and, seeing no trace of emotion on his face, felt a tinge of happiness.

Tang Xiaowei nudged Su Rui, "Alright! Let's talk about work back at the office."

Her intention was to prevent Su Rui from mentioning Fang Yuan's name here.

But unexpectedly, Su Rui became more agitated the more she spoke, "What kind of work is this? Most of the resources Fang Yuan has now were leftovers from my past!"

"I wasn't willing to submit myself to the Zhao Family, so I gave up those resources. But this woman was able to immediately take them over after I terminated the contract with the studio. Can her dealings with the Zhao Family be innocent?"

Tang Xiaowei coughed loudly, "That… We have some other things to deal with at the studio, so we're heading back first!"

With an awkward farewell, Tang Xiaowei hurriedly pulled Su Rui out of the shop.

Tong Ya fiddled with her fingers in front of her and slowly moved closer to Chen Yu.

"Do you really have no feelings for 'that person' anymore?"

Chen Yu naturally knew whom Tong Ya was referring to; he smiled gently and looked tenderly at her.

"Who might 'that person' be? Isn't there only one lady of the house here?"

Tong Ya giggled and, paying no mind to others cleaning the store, threw herself into Chen Yu's arms.

[Congratulations to the host for completing one day of business, today's net profit is 996,800 yuan, earning 996,800 points, bringing the current total accumulated points to 1,248,180.]

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected the 14 million points to even out so quickly.

And to reach over a million points all at once.

At this rate, it wouldn't be long before he racked up another ten million points.

Plus, there was already 34,570,000 yuan in his current account; starting from tomorrow, he would have to consider setting up his factory.

"Dinner is ready!"

Li Gang shouted and then brought out the staff meal together with Ning Kai and Wang Qingshan.

During this time, Wang Qingshan had learned a great deal from Li Gang and Ning Kai and had even become quite proficient in the entire Sichuan cuisine system.

Moreover, Wang Qingshan also taught his pickling experience to Li Gang and Ning Kai. Searᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It was fair to say that now there were three high-caliber chefs in the shop.

With the three of them, the shop could run entirely on its own.

Several employees were still working overtime inside Weirui Animation Studio.

Tang Xiaowei dragged Su Rui all the way to her office.

"Xiaowei, why did you drag me back here? I was planning to scrounge a meal there," Su Rui protested.

"Oh, my leader! Could you clear things up before you speak next time?" Tang Xiaowei said with a face full of reproach.

Stunned, Su Rui asked, "Did I say something wrong in the shop just now?"

Tang Xiaowei sighed softly, "Not exactly, but that Fang Yuan is Chen Yu's ex-wife. Try not to mention that name in the shop in the future."

Su Rui gaped, this was a bolt from the blue, an absolutely earth-shattering piece of news for her.
