Chapter 4: A laid-back special search system

"Tick ...... Tick ......"

A pot of hot water, heated to the right temperature by an electric heater, dripped evenly into the filter paper containing the ground coffee. The air was filled with the mesmerizing aroma of charcoal-fired coffee.

"Oh...... The taste is really ...... It's indescribably wonderful!"

"It's amazing, it's an authentic American black coffee, it feels completely different from the one in the store!"

In the office of the special search department, a group of people gathered around Lin Xiuyi to experience how to make an authentic American black coffee up close.

"The temperature of the water, the thickness of the beans after grinding, and the steeping time are the three key factors that determine a cup of coffee. If the water temperature is too high, it is best to grind the coffee particles coarsely, otherwise you can grind it finer, and the water temperature can be between 95 degrees Celsius ~ 75 degrees Celsius to reflect the value of a cup of coffee to the greatest extent. If the water temperature is too high, or if the beans are ground too finely, there is a high chance that the coffee will taste slightly sour, which of course requires a long time of practice to master......"

Lin Xiuyi patiently introduced the essentials of brewing a good cup of coffee to everyone, and the whole process took about half an hour to make three cups of fragrant American black coffee. Lin Xiuyi handed one of the cups to Miki and took one for himself, and the remaining cup was distributed by his colleagues in the third lesson of organized crime.

Naturally, this cup of coffee fell into the hands of Section Chief Matsuda without any suspense. Section Chief Matsuda picked up the cup, then took a sip of it to his lips under the gaze of his subordinates. Then a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

"It's delicious, it's completely different from the coffee you usually drink, and the taste is amazing...... "Mr. Matsuda praised him from the bottom of his heart.

"If you like it, I learned this hand from a friend who took care of me when I was recuperating in the United States! After returning to China, I always wanted to find a chance to try it, but I didn't buy all the things I needed until yesterday......" Lin Xiu raised the coffee cup in his hand, and then returned to his workstation to start his day's work.

Speaking of which, there is actually no work to be done in the special search department now. When the Special Investigation Department was first established, the Criminal Department's positioning of the Special Investigation Department was to break down the personnel barriers between departments and assist all departments in cracking down on various forms of criminal activities. However, when the personnel appointment of the special search department could not get an official reply from the Criminal Department, coupled with the kind reminder of the Shenmu Police Department, Lin Xiuyi gradually understood that he seemed to have been abandoned by the organization.

The definition of combating all forms of criminal activity is really interesting since the establishment of the Special Search Department. It is true that some cases have been transferred from various departments to the hands of the special search department. For example, last week, the Department of Sexual Crime Investigation 1 caught a lingerie thief wandering around the campus of Tokyo Women's University, and the task of identifying the victim was entrusted to the Department of Special Investigation. However, it is really embarrassing to talk about this work, and Shuichi Hayashi and Miki have to bring a variety of colorful and colorful underwear of different styles to the campus of Tokyo Women's University every day to find the owner of these underwear. This is really an awkward and difficult task, because basically no owner will come forward with his underwear.

But even so, Lin Xiuyi still calmly stayed in the special search department and completed his work seriously. There's nothing wrong with sitting on a cold bench, it's better than being an undercover agent. And the most important point is that Lin Xiuyi, who was promoted to the police department, now has an annual salary of up to 10 million yen. This salary level is almost on the same level as those who have sharpened their heads to find a job at a large trading company and full professors at national universities. But when it comes to the intensity of work, it's a very different story.

After tasting the American-style black coffee made by Lin Shuichi himself, Section Chief Matsuda also left with his subordinates. The huge office was suddenly a little empty. Miki put down the work at hand and walked towards Lin Xiuyi.

"Police, why haven't we decided on our personnel arrangements yet?" Miki asked with some concern.

"I don't know, but then we can enjoy a spacious office space, isn't it?" Lin Xiuyi asked indifferently.

"But the police department, isn't the goal of our special search department supposed to be the trump card of a lesson, but now it's all boring things. Miki angrily picked up a piece of lady's lace ** in the evidence bag and threw it into the box.

"Miki, as a police officer, I think it's actually a good thing if we can be like this every day, doesn't that mean that Tokyo is safe, what are you not satisfied with......" Lin Shuichi asked lightly.

"But, police department, we're dealing with these worn underwear all day now, it's so perverted! Miki still said angrily.

"Let's get started, Miki, it's better to steal underwear than rape......"

Lin Xiuyi put down the pen in his hand, and then looked at the current time, it seemed that it was already lunch time. It's just the right time to go out for a bite to eat and fill your stomach, and then stop by Tokyo Women's University in the afternoon to continue looking for the owners of these underwear. Thinking of this, Lin Xiuyi stood up and beckoned Miki to go to dinner together. After the two took their personal belongings, they left the office together.

Lin Xiuyi and Miki each took the elevator to the basement floor with a box of underwear. They then picked up an official car and put the underwear in the trunk at the back of the car. Then he drove away from the Metropolitan Police Department.

On the way to Tokyo Women's University in Suginami-ku, Hayashi turned on the radio in the car to pass the time.

"Now for the news that I just received, earlier this morning, a prisoner suddenly escaped from prison while on his way to medical treatment at Tokyo Central Hospital. According to an informed police officer who did not want to be named, the escaped prisoner was Shoji Kuroda, a key member of the Doomsday Trial, a religious radical organization that was famous in the 90s of the last century, who had single-handedly planned, participated in, and carried out several serious bombing cases......

"The police department, it sounds like a very dangerous person who ran away!" Miki said with some concern.

Lin Xiu subconsciously lowered the sound of the radio again, and then asked Miki, "What do you want to eat at noon?"

"Actually, what I want to eat most is my mother's home-cooked food!"

"That's not going to be easy!"

"That's still udon......"
