Sitting in the old place at the corner of Gaoxin Road, Lin Fan was stirring the cinnale floating on the coffee with the spoon in his hand, overlapping layer by layer, like a painter in the 20th century thinking about how to break away from the painting style of imitating nature.

The metal and the porcelain rim of the mug play a non-disciplined percussion sound, tinkling and clanging.

The sound was accompanied by the clock on the wall beating regularly, as if Lin Fan's mood at the moment had a fixed rhythm, but it was difficult to grasp the order of the content he wanted to express.

The handsome coffee shop owner with long hair stared at Xin Chen and hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind to go up to the window on the second floor, and brought a cup of coffee that he personally prepared for Xin Chen, "Miss, you have come to our store several times, I have always wanted to find a chance to get to know you, this cup of coffee is a little heart, if it happens to meet your appetite, how about exchanging contact information with me?" ”

Xin Chen slept with her mouth, Lin Fan's anxiety on the other side made her heart unable to calm down, the strange atmosphere was mixed in the air, she took a deep breath, picked up the coffee on the side and took a sip slightly, as if she was supplementing oxygen, courage, and the mellow aroma of coffee.

The rich chocolate aroma and the heaviness of the coffee calmed Xin Chen's nerves.

Seeing the slightly stretched brow of the beautiful woman in front of him, the coffee shop owner smiled, "This is cat poop coffee, produced in Indonesia, one of the most expensive coffees in the world, with a price of up to a few hundred dollars per pound, it is baked from the feces of a cat called "civet" after eating a special coffee bean.

Because the glandular secretions in this cat have a special aroma, the baked feces have a rich chocolate aroma.

But civets are getting rarer, so their droppings are a rare item that is produced in the world for less than a hundred pounds a year, and it's the only place in Ningxi where you can drink it, and I'm only for special guests. ”

"Oh, it's all feces, it's disgusting, I won't drink it, Xiao Fanzi, you are responsible for solving it, don't waste the boss's heart." Xin Chen pretended to be unbearable and quickly brought the coffee to Lin Fan, and gently touched Lin Fan with the instep under the table.

Lin Fan looked at the cappuccino in front of him, looking at another cup of loving civet coffee, and the resentful eyes from the owner of the coffee shop next to him, some emotions in his heart could not be resolved, and he understood Xin Chen's meaning, he got up, picked up the cup of cat coffee and drank it all in one go.

The bitterness and mellow aroma stimulate the taste buds along the esophagus, like the tip of the tongue connecting to the brain, or the coffee has a calming effect, Lin Fan smoothed out his mood.

"Her number, I'll give it to you later, but I'll get free of charge when I come here for coffee in the future." Lin Fan smiled at Xin Chen's scoundrel, with an expression of "you hit me".

The coffee shop owner's face was about to turn blue at this moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Little meaning, you and your sister will be free of charge in the future." ”

Immediately afterwards, the boss took out two black cards from the left pocket of his suit, "This is the VIP card of our store, you two put it away." ”

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Xin Chen, and his heart beat rapidly unconsciously.

When the coffee shop owner left, Xin Chen immediately turned into a violent young woman, how could she have the gentle and virtuous lady just now.

"Sister Chen, I was wrong, I just wanted to drink a few more cups of free coffee, you can let me go for the sake of my deep dark circles, and this boss is actually not bad, it doesn't hurt to make friends, but only for friends, if I go too deep, I will definitely be jealous."

I don't know which point just touched Xin Chen's vein, she rarely didn't crit on Lin Fan's calf again, the conversion of a violent woman and a lady was perfect, and the atmosphere suddenly returned to the idol drama where a beautiful goddess meets a sloppy little brother.

It's just that the dialogue of this play is dark and heavy.

The coffee was still steaming.

On one side of the table was the kidnapping case file that Lin Fan took out of his backpack, which was densely filled with his analysis.

On the other hand, there is the just-published "The Devotion of Suspect X" brought by Xin Chen, and the gimmick of the beautiful mystery writer on it is very eye-catching.

The waist cover of the book is written in bold type: The purest love, the most perfect trickery, seems to be a geometric problem, but in fact it is a function problem.

Lin Fan flipped through the notebook on the side, and the bits and pieces that had been in his mind for a long time gradually weaved into a net-like connection.

It's like a jigsaw puzzle game over the years, no matter how many pieces are scattered on the ground, perseverance, you can always pick them up one by one and build them into their original and complete appearance.

There will always be a moment.

"Sister Chen, we were all wrong."

Lin Fan raised his head and looked at Xin Chen with rare serious eyes, he pointed vigorously at the words on the waist seal, "Anyone who has played puzzles knows that complex graphics are easy to master, because each piece is so special, and you can quickly know the coordinates where it should be placed."

But the simpler the shapes, such as blue skies and lush greens, are often the most difficult to put together.

The kidnapping case is actually the same, what seems to be a geometry problem is actually a Taoist problem. ”

Countless questions flashed in Xin Chen's eyes, "What do you mean?" ”

"The kidnapping case is not a real kidnapping case, it is ostensibly an ordinary kidnapping operation against Xu Man, the daughter of Tiancheng Group, but in fact, the real target is Gu Yanran, the daughter of Gu Shunping!"

Simple tricks, unembellished, straightforward, but hard to see.

Xin Chen covered his mouth with a disbelieving expression, "How is it possible." ”

Lin Fan shook his head, his face was extremely annoyed, "It's all my fault, there were so many unnatural and weird places at that time, I was in them, but I didn't notice it at all, now I think that the ransom that Xu Man asked for by kidnapping Xu Man may just be a matter of taking the sheep by hand, and hiding their true criminal purpose is the most important thing." ”

Lin Fan scratched his head, there were many key clues in tandem, and he didn't know how to explain it to Xin Chen for a while, because he could see through many of the keys because of his reborn prophetic preconception.

For example, if he hadn't intervened in this case, what kind of tragic experience would Gu Yanran have encountered; how the black hand in the public security system dominated the direction of solving the case; how did Brother Kun deceive Gu Shunping's trust; And then how did he and those people behind the scenes set up a situation and easily pull Gu Shunping off the horse.

His rebirth ruined this demonic feast, but they regrouped and roared again, and the fog filled again, and Lin Fanzhi didn't have much time to give him, and he was not qualified to stand on this chess game head-to-head.

At this moment, he is in a dilemma, where to break the situation is very important, and more importantly, he is walking alone, or pulling the beautiful figure on the opposite side to move forward together.

He can lose and face danger alone, but with her, he will have more concerns.

Xin Chen waited quietly for Lin Fan to speak again, she didn't urge, although she didn't know what Lin Fan was struggling with, but she was willing to wait, just like the cup of coffee that was already cold.
