Updated 10/08/2026 10 min read

When I was five years old, I told my mother while munching on a cucumber. I heard the cucumber say, the old neighbor and his beautiful daughter-in-law took off their clothes and slept together. Mom was so scared that she quickly covered my mouth and told me not to say nonsense. Not long after, news spread that the old neighbor had been slashed by his son and was admitted to the hospital. From then on, I didn't tell anyone that I could hear food talking. Until the richest family offered a reward of one hundred million, frantically searching for the whereabouts of the youngest and most pampered daughter in the family. The meat bun I conveniently bought suddenly said that it was the eldest lady of the Phong family. I took the meat bun I just bought and knocked on the Phong family's door: "Stop looking, call the police, he's dead."... My voice wasn't loud, but it made the whole scene immediately quiet. Everyone's eyes were on me, everyone's faces were different. The world's top detective just glanced at me and then looked away. "When he spoke, his tone was very calm, but his eyes moved." "She's definitely lying!" The famous rescue team captain snorted coldly. "At such a young age, he already likes to attract attention." "Because he wanted to swindle the reward money, he deliberately baited everyone's eyes!" I hadn't even opened my mouth yet. The meat bun in my hand let out a sob: "I'm in so much pain...!" "If you guys knew the truth, it would definitely be heartbreaking, hu hu hu..." The eldest brother directly pushed me in front of the great masters across the country. "If you are already masters of all worlds, then quickly check to see if she is lying!" Right after that, a great Tarot card master walked out of the crowd. She pulled out a deck of cards right in front of me. "The universe told me, your name is Co Thanh Thanh, your parents are low-level employees under Phong Thi Group, and there is a grandmother in the house who is seriously ill." My face darkened slightly. It's really not wrong at all. Behind him, the rescue team captain's voice rang out: "Co Thanh Thanh is 22 years old this year, a recent graduate of Kinh University." "Currently unemployed at home, only going back and forth between two places every day. You are talking nonsense!" Immediately after that, the old leader clicked his hands and calculated very quickly. In just a blink of an eye, he slowly opened his mouth: "You and the little princess don't have any contact." "Furthermore, today you just learned about the Phong family offering a reward, so you suddenly had the idea to go to the Phong family. Am I right?" I nodded. The Phong family silently exchanged glances with each other. The secretary immediately handed over a stack of documents. Everyone had different expressions, occasionally raising their heads to look at me. Look, I know they are investigating my background. The third brother raised his eyebrows and reluctantly said: "It's true that they are all exactly the same documents." The second brother's frowning eyebrows gradually relaxed, the corners of his lips also hung with a hint of ridicule. "It's just that she's just an ordinary girl who couldn't be more normal, and yet she dares to speak extravagantly in front of experts all over the country?" The Phong family was arrogant, and didn't think of asking me another question at all. These people are truly very good-natured. Only one point was missed. Since childhood, I have been able to hear and understand different types of food. When he was five years old, the banana said that uncle Vuong next door abused his wife. After I called the police, I was able to save her when she only had one breath left. When I was eight years old, my bowl of beef noodles said the beef in it was made from mice. I immediately put down my chopsticks and went to complain. The next day, the noodle shop was indeed on the 315 news. I grew up surrounded by the sound of food. From vegetables and fruits, to delicious dishes brought to the table. Even... humans were turned into cooking ingredients. At this moment, the meat bun in my hand sobbed loudly: "Please, you must help me clear my injustice."

hidden. My family will definitely give you a lot of money to thank you! "Huhuhu, I'm still so young and already have no future." Hearing the crying in my ears, I mustered up the courage to say: "The little princess disappeared in the Phong family villa, it was not after she went out that she disappeared. Am I right?" As soon as these words finished, the faces of the seven brothers of the Phong family changed drastically! After all, they never really revealed this detail to the outside. So right now the most speculation is that the little princess was kidnapped by a rival in the industry. The masters who just looked at me with disdain began to whisper. Some even started divining again. The eldest brother's face immediately turned pale, he grabbed my wrist tightly. me, threatening in a low voice: "What do you know?" "Is Nhu Nhu's disappearance related to you? If not, how could you know so well?" The eldest brother's nickname is "Phong Diem La", the leader of the Phong Thi group, with cruel tactics. I'm just a poor student who just graduated, and I can't provoke him at all. Severe pain came from my wrist. At this time, the meat bun opened his mouth again: "Quickly tell my eldest brother that I'm dead, and even dismembered, it hurts so much, it hurts." "My eldest brother loves me so much, he will definitely help me get revenge." "His tricks are too clever, if you don't help me, no one in this life will know I'm dead, hu hu hu." My heart tightened. The little princess and I were about the same age, still an innocent and pure college student. What she had to endure made me feel that pain. Right now, to gain the trust of the Phong family. I followed the meat bun's instructions, demonstrating one after another. "On the little princess's left shoulder there is a blue birthmark, and on her right leg there is a black mole." "She was afraid of pain, but she had the initials of her seven brothers tattooed on the back of her neck." "After you found out, I was both happy and heartbroken. Am I right?" With each sentence I said, the Phong family's face became a little whiter. Third brother muttered and opened his mouth: "It all matches..." "It was Nhu Nhu who told you, right?" Second brother's eyes immediately turned red, he grabbed my shoulder, trembling and said: "You must know where Nhu Nhu is. Now let's go pick her up right away!" I hesitated for a moment, then read out a few addresses. "Anh Lan Villa is in the west of the city, Cam Tu Son Trang is in the north of the city, Tinh Ha Loan is in the south of the city, Ban Son Trang Vien is in the east of the city..." A sneer suddenly rang out in the crowd. Brother Seven laughed coldly: "What you said before and after is completely contradictory. At first, they said the person had died, then read out so many addresses." The fifth brother also continuously chimed in: "If he really died, how could he go to so many places?" "Do the dead still know how to run around?" I quietly looked at them, without saying a word. For a moment, it seemed like everyone was thinking of something. His face immediately became ugly. The old Taoist immediately reacted. uncle: “No way! I cast another hexagram, the hexagram shows that she is basically not dead, she is still alive! The Tarot blogger also pulled out a deck of cards and analyzed: "The trajectory is not wrong, but you have no evidence to say that she is dead." "The universe clearly told me, the little princess is still alive very well!" I quietly listened to them argue, without giving an opinion. During the constant dispute, the main door of the villa was opened. The police officer led the team and looked around and asked: "Who called the police?" The eldest brother stepped up to greet the police and said in a deep voice: "I called the police." "This person said something happened to my sister, please help me check." The police knew the situation and immediately

Implement investigation. At the same time, the great ministers of all worlds also began to act. The Tarot master held up a card and urged: "The card shows that the little princess is in the third room on the second floor of the Phong family's house. You can find her now!" The old Taoist teacher and his disciples clicked their hands to calculate, then clasped their hands with the Phong family's ancestors. "The card shows that the little princess is safe and sound, in a manor house in the southeast of city A." Detective blogger T. took a magnifying glass to analyze the footprints on the ground. "The footprints were mixed up. messy, uneven depth. This shows that there are two people leaving at the same time! The Phong family looked at each other, completely bewildered. The police not only began examining the scene of the Phong family's house, but also investigated the information of all those present today. The seventh brother held his head and muttered: "Why is what everyone says different? Who should we believe?" The fourth brother looked at the polygraph report on the computer, his eyebrows furrowed. "Each person said it was true, so what is the truth?" The police also began to hesitate. "The police couldn't find any valuable clues in the places they talked about." The eldest brother suddenly lost his mind. "Could it be that Nhu Nhu has disappeared from the world?" Why?” Right when everyone was at a loss. I took two steps forward and took out the meat bun. "The evidence is here. Just check this meat bun, everything will be clear." In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on me. The Tarot blogger rolled his eyes. "Pretend to be a ghost!" The person next to him also chimed in: "The person you're looking for is human, what's the use of checking this dumpling? Could it be that there's the little princess's fingerprint on it, is it the little princess wrapping it?" "Or do you mean the little princess was made into a dumpling?" As soon as these words were spoken, the whole scene was silent. But at this time, the detective, who had always been silent, raised a question. "If this dumpling really has a problem, then how do you know?" I pursed my lips and looked towards the meat dumpling. I only heard the meat buns cry with thanks: "Thank you, once the police have finished checking, the truth will be clear." "By then the police will follow the trail, my family will no longer misunderstand you." But I didn't answer, just watched the police take the meat buns away. The atmosphere at the whole scene became tense. Everyone whispered and speculated about countless possibilities. As for the Phong family, they surrounded me tightly. The old ancestor used his cane to knock on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Little girl, from the moment you entered the door, I saw you always holding that bun. How did you know there was a problem with this meat bun?" I took a deep breath, but had difficulty opening my mouth. In return, anyone who knew I could hear food talking would think I was crazy. The eldest brother narrowed his eyes dangerously, coldly asking: "The murderer... is you?" At this moment, I felt that the Phong family's eyes looking at me were filled with bone-chilling murderous intent. Someone once said that he would rather spend ten years in prison than offend the Phong family. Just because the Phong family has immense power and ruthless tactics. Anyone who dares to offend the Phong family will not have a good outcome. I straightened my back, facing them fearlessly. "The murderer is not me." "But the murderer is right at the scene!" Very quickly, the inspection staff rushed to the villa. "The test results are in!" Hearing this, everyone was highly concentrated. My heart was beating wildly, my palms were covered in cold sweat. “The report shows that the ingredients of the dumplings are normal flour and pork, and also some green onions and shiitake mushrooms.”
