The theater was dimly lit, as it was still early before the show, and the stage was pitch black.

In the center of the ground floor lobby, Xu Xian and Sica had already taken their seats.

"Unnie, are you angry?" Xu Xian lightly covered her mouth and asked in a low voice.

"No." Sica replied.

"Then why did you leave by yourself?"

"I didn't feel like talking to that kind of person. Now, stop asking so many questions and treat me like a wooden dummy. Got it?"

"Oh, okay then."

"Unnie, I..."

"Shh, no talking."

"It's not that. I just realized a serious problem—I forgot to give the ticket to Prosecutor Jin Yunho."

"..." Sica was speechless.

"Unnie, I'll go give him the ticket. You stay here and don't run around, okay?" Xu Xian said with concern.

"..." Sica was still speechless: "Please, I'm not a child."

Xu Xian nodded in satisfaction and was about to stand up, but her movement froze.

She clamped her hand over her mouth and whispered in surprise: "Oh my!"

Sica looked in the direction of the sound and saw Jin Yunho, dressed in a suit, standing beside Xu Xian with a plastic bag in hand, smiling at them, or more specifically, at Xu Xian.

"Please show the ticket to the staff behind me. I was allowed in because I asked for a favor," Jin Yunho said to the surprised and dazed Xu Xian.

"Oh... okay." After resolving the ticket issue, Xu Xian hurriedly apologized to Jin Yunho: "I'm sorry, I was negligent and forgot to give you the ticket."

"It's fine, it was easily resolved, wasn't it?" Jin Yunho waved his hand and invited Xu Xian to sit down.

"Oh." Xu Xian responded, then stared at him with her big, watery eyes and asked curiously:

"You didn't leave for long, how did you find us so quickly? There are two levels of seating and over a thousand seats, it's quite amazing that you found us so fast."

Jin Yunho thought for a moment and then realized: "Oh, you mean this! It's simple.

First, as the invitee for tonight, you were wearing a dress. This kind of attire is not suitable for the second level seating, as there's a risk of exposure.

Additionally, when I came in, I noticed the floor plan. The entrances for the first and second levels are separate. You were heading towards the entrance for the first level."

Xu Xian thought about it and agreed that it was simple, but she still had a question: "Even if you knew we were on the first level, there are dozens of rows of seats. How did you find us?

The lighting is dim and there are many people. You couldn't have found us just by sight, right?"

Jin Yunho shook his head and said: "That's not hard to guess. You are public figures and would likely avoid being surrounded and disturbed. The fact that you both wore sunglasses in the evening also suggests this.

Based on this, you would choose a seat that is hidden and less likely to be noticed.

On the first level, those in the front rows enter from the front entrance, and those in the back rows enter from the back entrance. This makes the middle seats the least likely to be disturbed or noticed.

Following this logic, it was easy to find you here."

After hearing Jin Yunho's analysis, Xu Xian clapped her hands, clearly impressed.

On the other side, Sica was unimpressed.

She didn't think Jin Yunho's reasoning was particularly impressive, considering it was basic. Although she might not have this ability, she believed it was something all prosecutors should possess.

Therefore, she thought Jin Yunho was just showing off to Xu Xian.

As the oldest member of the group, she felt responsible for taking care of the younger members, a role she had always played.

"I can't let the innocent maknae be deceived. I need to find other questions to test him and expose his fake reasoning."

Sica began to think of ways to challenge Jin Yunho.

Before long, an opportunity presented itself.

Jin Yunho had gone to buy drinks and returned with yam juice for Xu Xian.

Xu Xian usually drank yam juice, and seeing that Jin Yunho had brought her yam juice, she was very surprised: "How did you know I usually drink this?"

Jin Yunho smiled and said: "I guessed. I hope it suits your taste." Then, he handed a bottle of orange juice to Sica.

Seeing that it was the drink she rarely consumed, Sica finally found an opportunity to challenge Jin Yunho.

"Thank you, but I don't usually drink orange juice!"

Sica's eyes clearly warned Xu Xian, conveying: "See, he's just guessing. Don't be so easily impressed."

Xu Xian, however, was not bothered by this. This wasn't a detective novel, and she didn't care whether Jin Yunho was guessing or not.

Jin Yunho, unaware of their silent exchange, didn't force the issue when Sica didn't take the orange juice. He then offered her a cup of red date juice.

This time, Sica took the red date juice but set it aside, lightly flicking her long hair and said: "I'm not used to drinking red date juice either, but thank you."

Seeing the awkwardness, Xu Xian was about to tug at Sica's sleeve to give Jin Yunho some face.

But then, Jin Yunho's rich, resonant voice rang out: "I have one last drink, mineral water. However, I personally recommend you drink orange juice or red date juice.

Because your ears have been a bit uncomfortable lately, and these two juices are good for your ears."

Jin Yunho spoke quickly but clearly, with a persuasive tone.

However, neither Sica nor Xu Xian paid attention to this; they were more shocked by the content of his words.

"Oh my, how did you know Sica's ears were uncomfortable? Sometimes Sica does say her ears feel itchy," Xu Xian covered her mouth in surprise.

Although Sica didn't speak, she was now interested in hearing Jin Yunho's analysis, wanting to see if he was just making it up.

But the result was bound to disappoint Sica.

Jin Yunho explained logically: "When we met, she was wearing headphones. She was still listening to music while waiting, which suggests she often wears headphones.

Additionally, one of her actions caught my attention—flicking her hair.

Many girls do this, but when she flicked her hair, she also touched her ear.

I guessed that she might have been wearing headphones for a long time, which could make her ears uncomfortable, leading her to subconsciously touch her ear when flicking her hair. That's why I bought these two drinks that are good for the ears."

"Wow, that's amazing!" Xu Xian was clearly impressed.

Seeing that she had not only failed to expose Jin Yunho but had also made Xu Xian even more impressed, Sica was frustrated and asked:

"You got that right. But what about Xu Xian's yam juice? Was that also based on your observation and analysis? If so, I'd like to hear the process."

Jin Yunho smiled and unscrewed the cap of the mineral water, taking a sip to clear his throat, then continued: "Similarly, it's very simple..."
