Marunouchi, Cafe 1894 in the Mitsubishi No. 1 Museum of Art, Hayashi Shuichi was led by the service staff to a seat in the corner.

"Sorry to keep you waiting!"

"It's okay, I've just arrived, how about it, is it still the same today!"

"Hey, I knew I was going to meet you here, I didn't drink coffee today!"

Lin Xiuyi put aside the briefcase in his hand, and then said to the service staff waiting beside him:

"Please give me an espresso (espresso)"

"Yes sir, please wait a moment!"

After the waiter heard Lin Xiuyi's explanation, he immediately retired. Now Lin Xiuyi can finally ask Yuan Zhizhu what is the reason why he suddenly invited himself here to drink coffee!

"So, Inspector, may I ask if there is any topic that is inconvenient for you to discuss at the Metropolitan Police Department when you suddenly invited me here today?"

Yuan Zhizhu heard Lin Xiuyi's question, and immediately put down the coffee cup in his hand. Then he lowered his voice and asked Lin Xiuyi in a low voice:

"I heard that Shuichi-kun and the current Minister of Justice Nobuko Ando have a good personal relationship, right?"

"Oh...... Where did the Overseer hear about this rumor?"

Lin Xiuyi didn't expect Yuan Zhizhu to actually talk about this topic. This made Lin Xiuyi feel very strange, he didn't understand why Gen Zhizhu suddenly asked about Nobuko Ando.

"To tell you the truth, in fact, the person who really wants to ask Xiu Yijun is not me, and I am just entrusted by others! However, have you heard about the sudden resignation of Congressman Hamada Daichi a while ago?

"Hey?"

Before his resignation, rumors spread that he had been appointed as the new member of the Public Security Committee, replacing the outgoing member of the current commissioner, Keiji Kimura. So the National Police Agency had spent a lot of effort on public relations with him before. But now he suddenly resigned for no reason. Then Keiji Kimura's successor is once again uncertain......"

"So...... Can I understand that your client actually wants me to find out who will be Keiji Kimura's successor?"

Just before Yuan Zhizhu could answer Lin Xiuyi's question, the waiter had already walked over with Lin Xiuyi's Espresso. I saw a small crystal clear glass, filled with fragrant coffee. Through the walls of the glass, you can clearly see the mixture of foam and grease floating on top of the coffee. The lower layer is a dark liquid that is opaque. However, when this cup of coffee was served, its aroma attracted many customers sitting around.

Espresso and Lin Xiuyi's favorite pour-over coffee are not the same. This is because it is a coffee that needs to be made through a coffee press. Because the coffee is made at 9 atmospheres and 90 degrees Celsius, it takes a very short time, but it takes only 30 seconds to extract the full essence of the coffee powder. The by-product of this is the layer of coffee grease Crema that floats on top of the coffee. It is this layer of Crema that completely distinguishes Espresso from other coffees.

"It does smell different, but not everyone likes it!"

Yuan Zhizhu looked at the cup of Espresso in front of Lin Xiuyi slightly. Previously, under the recommendation of Lin Xiuyi, Genzhizhu also tried Espresso. Still, he was beaten by the intense taste of the espresso.

Lin Xiu picked up the cup, first put it under his nose and took a deep breath. This taste can be said to be the soul of coffee. Especially on the top layer of Crema, Lin Xiuyi usually drinks it first in the first sip, and then slowly tastes the coffee liquid under Crema......

Yuan Zhizhu did not interrupt Lin Xiuyi's Yaxing tasting coffee. Because he's just a messenger. Lin Xiuyi's answer or not had no effect on him. However, just after Lin Xiuyi put down the coffee cup. He took the initiative to reply to Yuan Zhizhu:

"So. I'd better agree to come down, though I don't think I'll be able to get any useful news from Nobuko Ando!"

Lin Xiu replied to Yuan Zhizhu with a smile.

"That's great, I, the middleman, can finally give the other party an explanation!"

Yuan Zhizhu also replied happily, he didn't expect Lin Xiuyi to agree so happily.

"Before that, though, I still have a little doubt. I wonder why the supervisor agreed to Sato's request to visit Nobuko Ando?"

"So, you've already guessed it! Forget it, I knew it was going so well, I didn't want you to hide anything!"

"Well, then, I'd like to thank the Overseer for his kindness!"

Lin Xiuyi silently felt grateful to the cold-hearted Yuan Zhizhu in his heart. In fact, when Gen Zhizhu mentioned his personal relationship with Nobuko Ando. Lin Xiuyi vaguely guessed that this commission should be related to the high-level of the Criminal Department. Because during the time he was in charge of the Tokyo subway bombing, he once went to the Metropolitan Police Department with Nobuko Ando. At that time, the person who opened the door for himself was his immediate boss, the counselor of the Criminal Department.

According to Lin Xiuyi's understanding of Yuan Zhizhu, under normal circumstances, he would never stand out for this matter. But maybe it's because I'm worried that I will directly refuse Minister Sato's commission and affect my future in the criminal department. Yuan Zhizhu used his personal relationship to ask himself in advance. This is the root cause of the always cold Yuan Zhizhu suddenly becoming enthusiastic!

After Lin Xiuyi and Yuan Zhizhu finished talking about business, the two casually chatted about some recent situations in Yuanneng Temple.

"So, has the Overseer been in contact with Miss Akemi lately?"

"Hmm...... After returning from Iwate Prefecture, we seem to have become very good friends, so I guess I'm the luckiest of all her fans!"

"So, have you ever met with Ms. Akemi? Actually, I've met Ms. Akemi a few times recently because of Reina. She seems to have been asking the Overseer about some of your latest news, so if it's convenient for you, why don't you find a time together. ”

"That's the best, of course, but I still have a lot of work on my hands!

But in the Metropolitan Police Department, perhaps the last department you want to be busy is the Supervision Division of the Police Department, where you work!"
