Chapter 52: A Chance Encounter

Inside the Time Café, by the window.

Lin Ze held a cup of black tea in his hand, and through the clear window, he quietly watched the yellow locust trees on the road outside the window, as well as the flow of people walking in a hurry.

The last time he was like this, sitting in a café drinking alone, was before he got the cultivation series of games, and the long-lost tranquility made Lin Ze feel a little satisfied from the bottom of his heart.

I remember that there is a loneliness rating table on the Internet, which ranks the things that you do alone according to the level of loneliness, such as watching a movie alone, eating alone, shopping alone, and so on.

If these represent loneliness, then Lin Ze feels that he may enjoy this loneliness very much, and when he is alone, it will make him more relaxed, and there is a kind of tranquility and pleasure immersed in his own world.

Especially after the appearance of the cultivation series of games, he spent most of his time on adventure and cultivation, so he cherished the quiet time of a person more and more.

It's a pity that life often can't go as you want many times, and after sitting for long, a fashionably dressed girl came over and asked a little shyly, "Hello, are you alone?"

Not far away, two girls were gathered together, looking at this side with a slightly excited expression.

Seeing this, Lin Ze's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of helplessness.

From five minutes ago, the three girls had been watching this way, burying their heads in the fact that they were not knowing what they were discussing, and from time to time they let out chuckles, and it was difficult not to be noticed.

"No, I'm waiting for my girlfriend. ”

“...... I'm sorry. The girl looked disappointed and retreated.

The other two girls quickly learned about the situation from their friends, and they also let out a sigh of disappointment, but the next second they saw Lin Ze get up and go to the cashier to settle the bill, and quickly left the coffee shop.

“......”

Walking on the crowded street, Lin Ze unconsciously came to the zelkova square where he met Luo Luo for the first time, and after shopping for a while, he planned to return to school, but before he reached the bus stop, he saw Yang Xiaomeng walking towards her, she was holding two heavy bags in both hands, and her steps were difficult.

Seeing Lin Ze, Yang Xiaomeng was slightly stunned, and almost stumbled and fell down without paying attention to her feet, but fortunately, at the critical moment, Lin Ze stepped forward with an arrow and grabbed her arm.

"Thank you!"

After stabilizing her body, Yang Xiaomeng smiled gratefully at Lin Ze, but found that the latter's eyes were on the two large bags of snacks in her hand, and her pretty face couldn't help but blush, and she hurriedly explained: "This is what I bought for someone else." ”

Lin Ze was noncommittal and asked, "Do you need help?"

Yang Xiaomeng looked at his slender arms, and finally nodded: "I'm sorry for you." ”

"Where to go?"

"It's right in front of the neighborhood!"

The two quickly arrived at an upscale community, walked into the elevator of one of the buildings, and Yang Xiaomeng then pressed the button on the 19th floor.

"You live here?" Lin Ze was a little surprised, he really didn't know that Yang Xiaomeng was a local.

"No, it's my cousin who lives here. ”

As he spoke, the elevator had reached the 19th floor and opened with a clang.

Under the leadership of Yang Xiaomeng, the two came to the front of the 1905 gate.

"Thank you for your hard work, just put it at the door. Yang Xiaomeng pointed to the side of the door.

"Don't you need to help bring it in?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaomeng couldn't help but look a little weird, shook his head and said, "No need, she will open the door and get it herself later." ”

Lin Ze nodded and put the bag on the side of the door, while Yang Xiaomeng knocked on the door and shouted loudly:

"Xiao Ning, I put things at the door, you remember to take them in later. ”

There was no response, and there was a dead silence in the room.

Yang Xiaomeng seemed to be accustomed to it, and he was not surprised, so he turned his head to Lin Ze and said, "Let's go." ”

So the two went downstairs and left the community.

When passing by the square, Yang Xiaomeng suddenly pointed to a mobile stall selling snacks in the distance: "I'll invite you to drink milk tea as a thank you gift!"

After that, without waiting for Lin Ze to answer, he walked towards the stall car.

Lin Ze had no choice but to follow and come to the stall car with her.

"Welcome, what would you like to eat...... It's you!"

Sensing that someone was approaching, the clerk who was cooking food in the car looked up with a smiling face, waiting for the usual question, but when he saw Lin Ze's face clearly, he couldn't help but exclaim.

Lin Ze also frowned at the same time, just because the clerk in front of him was the girl in the cap who tried to rob the monster that night.

"Your friend?" Yang Xiaomeng asked Lin Ze, his gaze rolling back and forth on the two of them, thoughtful.

"It's not. Lin Ze shook his head and denied it.

The girl in the cap looked like she was itching with anger, staring at Lin Ze with wide eyes, and after a while, she glanced at Yang Xiaomeng, rolled her eyes, and said with a smile: "It's just that I've met once, he brought a beautiful woman to the noodle restaurant for dinner last time, and I happened to work there." ”

"Beauty?" Yang Xiaomeng was slightly surprised, pursed her lips and said, "Chen Yuxuan?"

...... Can you guess that?

Lin Ze couldn't help but sigh at the woman's intuition and nodded calmly.

The girl in the cap saw the expressions of the two in her eyes, and immediately understood that they were not boyfriend and girlfriend, so she couldn't help but be very discouraged and glared at Lin Ze fiercely.

No matter how dull Yang Xiaomeng was, he also reacted at this time that the relationship between Lin Ze and the clerk in front of him did not seem to be very good, so he gently pulled Lin Ze's sleeve.

"Why don't we go to another one?"

Lin Ze nodded, the girl in the cap obviously still held a grudge against the events of that night, and he didn't want to be added to the milk tea he would drink later.

After leaving the square, Lin Ze seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head to Yang Xiaomeng and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that there was something to do, so I left first." ”

Yang Xiaomeng was stunned: "Okay...... Then I'll have you next time!"

Lin Ze nodded: "Goodbye." ”

"Goodbye. ”

After saying goodbye to Yang Xiaomeng, Lin Ze kept walking in the direction of the bus stop, until it was estimated that Yang Xiaomeng could no longer see him, so he went around in a circle, entered from the other direction of the square, and bought a peaked cap to wear at a jewelry store by the way.

A moment later, Lin Ze was already sitting by the window of a beverage shop, with a glass of juice in front of him, and he sat quietly, looking out of the window at the square.

From his position, he could see the mobile stall carts in the square, and the girl in the cap was smiling and greeting customers, completely unaware that she was being watched.

Picking up the juice and taking a sip, Lin Ze had a thoughtful look on his face.

"Are you really working part-time, or are you investigating monsters?"

On the day of the flesh monster incident, the girl in the cap happened to be working as a waitress in the noodle restaurant, and judging from the fact that she sneaked into the noodle shop that night, she was mostly investigating the monster during the day.

So, is that true now?

After thinking for a moment, Lin Ze took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet for Beech Square, and the result was that everything was normal, and there had been no abnormal events here recently.

"Either way, you'll find out if you keep watching. ”

Looking at the busy peaked cap girl in the stall car, Lin Ze murmured softly.

"Etiquette is still exchanged, if there are really monsters infested, this time I will be replaced to rob the monster!"
