Chapter 61: The Chamber of Secrets
"Brother Wen, did you say something just now?" Out the door, Ali asked, "Do you know that policeman?" ”
"I've taken credit a few times before, he gave me something and I'll give it back when I have the chance. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xiao Wen put away the gloom in his eyes, and his expression returned to calm.
Sooner or later, I will return what you gave me, Xiao Wen thought secretly.
"I don't know what they're here for, I guess it has something to do with yesterday's case, are we staying nearby and waiting for them to leave, or do you have other plans?" Ju Fan knew that there must be something inside, but Xiao Wen didn't say it, and he didn't want to ask: "We now have another choice, which is to visit Wang Jiaying directly in the hospital." ”
"It's not appropriate, I'm going to ask her tomorrow, no, I should ask her again yesterday, and save her again by the way." Xiao Wen said.
"At least she can suffer one less time." Ali sighed and said helplessly.
"Let's wait for a while, I've been in contact with this policeman a few times, he must not be here to investigate the case, and he won't stay for too long."
The three of them trotted all the way against the torrential rain, hid in the Time Cafe, and found a place to sit.
"Three glasses of sand of time, I please." Xiao Wen took out his wallet.
"Isn't this coffee cheap?" Ali stuck out his tongue, he didn't expect an ordinary café to have such a high-priced item.
"Sir, our coffee here is made from imported coffee beans, and the taste will definitely bring you the enjoyment of a top café." The waiter bent down slightly and smiled politely.
Xiao Wen remembered this waiter, the one who appeared in his dream and chased him with a submachine gun, and when he saw him again, he felt weird.
After briefly describing his dream and the two of them, Xiao Wen looked at Ju Fan's face, and suddenly thought of the strange dream he had after the first crossing, the Crossing Guest Alliance.
"The things in dreams are usually related to the things we usually see. Maybe you don't have an impression of seeing this waiter in reality, but you have been here many times, and in your subconscious, you have remembered what he looked like. I believe that in your dreams, all the people sitting here are the people you have seen in the past. This is called reality shining into dreams. Ju Fan said.
Xiao Wen smiled after hearing this, this is consistent with his thoughts, this is already a very popular scientific theory.
"I'm going to put some water." Ali just sat down and stood up again.
The waiter brought three cups of coffee to the table, Ju Fan pursed his lips and smiled self-deprecatingly: "It's so astringent, I still prefer tea." When we do research, we all like to use a big tea jar to make a cup of green tea, and drink it from morning to night, without changing the tea leaves. ”
"Haha, the times are different now, it's not that drinking tea is lower than drinking coffee, it's just that a brew of tea can't be drunk for a day, you should always know this." Xiao Wen listened to the music, but he didn't expect Ju Fan to be so young, but his habit of drinking tea was similar to that of an old pedant.
"That's true, it's just that it's hard to break this habit." As soon as Ju Fan looked up, he happened to see the world-famous painting - "The Eternity of Memory".
"I'm afraid this café is more than just a café." Ali came back from going to the bathroom, and his whole body was wet.
"Why are you covered in water and urinating?" Xiao Wen looked at Ali in surprise, very strange.
"When I went to release the water just now, I paid attention to the area here, and it seemed to be smaller than it looked, so I went around outside, and I felt that there was definitely no room open to the outside world, and there was probably a secret room." Ali said with certainty.
"Maybe it's someone's office or warehouse." Ju Fan picked up the cup, thought about it, took another sip, and looked at his expression, this time it seemed that he felt a little better than before.
"The office and storage room are in the back, and there is a door number. The area of this obviously does not match the length and width of the exterior wall, and I have searched for them all, and there is no other door. Ali couldn't help pinching his chin with two fingers and said to himself, "Why does an ordinary café have a secret room?" ”
"Maybe it's the owner here who wants to have some personal space. After all, the house is rented by others, and it is not illegal to build a secret room. Xiao Wen couldn't figure it out, so it could only be attributed to the boss's personal hobbies.
"Looks like we have to find a way to get in touch with the boss, maybe the manager here knows something. Working here every day, the area is dozens of square meters smaller for no reason, and it is impossible not to find it. Ali said, taking a sip of coffee: "The taste is really authentic." ”
Xiao Wen nodded: "I drank it twice, and I thought it was good, very authentic taste." ”
Ali suddenly stretched out his hand and made an angry expression: "Waiter, waiter!" ”
"What's wrong, sir?"
"What kind of coffee are you, a copycat, right? It's so hard to drink, call your boss! ”
The sky avoided a flash of lightning, and the slightly dark sky was instantly illuminated, followed by a shocking thunder, and a pedestrian outside the café who was in a hurry to avoid the rain was startled, and his legs were weak and almost sat on the ground.
"Sir, do you have any questions?" The store manager wearing a professional skirt walked over and bowed slightly: "Every cup of coffee we have here ensures authenticity, and it is carefully blended by our baristas, if it doesn't suit your taste, I can help you change to other varieties, just please don't affect other customers." ”
Ali coughed lightly, looking calm: "I don't know if the other coffees are authentic, my cup is indeed too different from the taste of the drip coffee I drank in the Netherlands, I don't believe you drink it." ”
The manager frowned imperceptibly, and the smile on his face did not decrease: "It seems that you have a deep understanding of coffee, can you see that I can help you change a cup?" ”
"Of course, I'm a professional barista, and when I take a sip of a cup of coffee, I know how skilled the barista is and whether the coffee beans are authentic." Ali looked proud: "I just returned to China, and I'm planning to open my own café, I think it's good for you guys, the rent here is very expensive, how big is it?" ”
"The rent is paid by the boss, I don't know how much, but if the area here is a single floor, it is about 350 square meters."
“350?! Are you kidding? I think it's only 280 square meters at most, don't slaughter the landlord as your boss, you have to tell him when you go back, it's a big loss! ”
The manager's expression flashed with a hint of unnaturalness: "I don't know about this, I'll go and help you change a cup of coffee." ”
After the female manager left, Ali smiled mysteriously: "Look, this manager really knows something." ”
"I think you're addicted to being a detective again." Ju Fan sneered and took another sip of coffee: "I feel more and more that the taste is not bad, it seems that I will drink a little more in the future." ”
"It's strange, why did An Kai and his two goods go in for so long and not come out, did they really find something?" Xiao Wen's attention has been on the clothing store a hundred meters away, with what he knows about An Kai, he doesn't look like the kind of person who will concentrate on work, there is only one explanation, there is something in it that attracts them.
"Why don't you go and have a look?" Ali also felt strange that such a small storefront could still turn out flowers in it: "Is there also a secret room there?" ”
"Poof." Xiao Wen looked at Ali helplessly: "You are entangled in a secret room, and it is a secret room when you open and close your mouth." ”
"Ahh ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" A scream pierced the sky, and a woman fell to the door of the clothing store in the alley, retreating to the side of the road with her hands and feet, looking extremely frightened.
Something happened! Xiao Wen's heart crossed a strong sense of foreboding, and he rushed out of the café with an arrow step.
Xiao Wen ran closer and closer, and he saw that the water on the road in the alley began to slowly dye red, and the color became darker and darker, which was shocking.
"Oh yes, what's going on?" Xiao Wen scolded secretly, flashed to the door and just glanced at it, his feet suddenly seemed to be petrified, and he couldn't move half a step.
"Kill, kill... It's broken, it's all broken... "Originally, he was just a hurried passerby, but if he could still have memories after today, this terrifying picture would probably accompany this woman for the rest of her life.
The original exquisite and elegant cheongsam shop has now become a cruel Shura purgatory, with a pile of broken corpses scattered all over the ground, dark red blood crawling all over the room, and constantly seeping out.
The colorful cheongsam worn by the plastic model shines with a bewitching glow against the background of blood.
Xiao Wen suddenly felt a tumult in his stomach, nauseous and even a little dizzy. Pedestrians joined in the fun, and people kept running to the side of the road, spitting gastric juice in large gulps.
The only ones who can be considered calm are Ali and Jufan.
Ali slowly approached the scene, and with a half-broken face, he said with a pale face: "It's the policeman just now." ”
Ju Fan's face was not good-looking, but he would still endure his nausea and carefully observe the situation in the store: "Strange, all the decorations are intact, why is it just that the people are broken?" ”
