Chapter 67: The Waiter
"Is this Cleaver still in Jiangcheng?"
"I don't know this yet, but in just one day, that's all I can hear." Liu Jinbao spread his hands and said that he was not a superman, and there was no way to do so many things in one day.
"Go ahead tomorrow and touch this Cleaver's situation in as much detail as possible." Luo Yao commanded.
"Okay."
"Yan Ming, how is the investigation of social relations in Hechuan over there?"
Yan Ming hesitated for a moment and said: "I haven't made much progress here, and the pseudonym 'Liu Ming' in Hechuan is almost the same time as Yoshida, and he took down this bookstore, because he can import some foreign language periodicals, and his business and reputation are not bad in the circle, no one would have thought that this Liu Ming is actually a Japanese or a Japanese spy, and now this bookstore has been closed, and no one dares to take over......
"Oh, hasn't the bookstore been taken over yet?"
"No, the landlord is in a hurry, but he doesn't dare to dispose of the books in that room casually, and the previous boss is a Japanese spy, so everyone is afraid of getting into trouble, so the bookstore has been closed now." Yan Ming said.
"Yan Ming, you go to this landlord, take over this bookstore, change the name, and continue to operate." Luo Yao thought for a moment and said.
"I, the bookstore, boss, I don't understand this?" Yan Ming was surprised.
"We need to make long-term preparations in Jiangcheng, if we don't finish this case, we will leave." Luo Yao explained, "Therefore, it is very necessary to arrange a few of our cover points or contact points, and you also need a normal identity to facilitate activities in Jiangcheng."
"What about me?" Liu Jinbao asked.
"Lao Liu, you used to work in the special service brigade of the Xiakou Police General Bureau, and I want you to return to the special service brigade." Luo Yao thought for a moment and said.
"Okay, if the mission requires it, I can go back, so that I can use this identity to help you do things." Liu Jinbao understands that now they are alone and need to borrow strength.
"But how do I get back?"
"This is easy to do, I'll arrange it, to ensure that you won't be suspicious at all when you go back, maybe you can be promoted to the next level." Luo Yao said with a smile.
"That's a good idea." Liu Jinbao grinned, this is back to work in a familiar place, it is naturally different.
"Mao'er, you follow Yan Ming, he needs a guy for the bookstore, after the two of you take down the bookstore, this can be regarded as having an official identity and a place to stay." Luo Yao pointed to Xiao Northeast and said.
"Yes."
"By the way, boss, this Katayama Xiaomei likes to drink coffee very much, and he often goes to a coffee house called 'Twilight'." Liu Jinbao suddenly remembered something and said.
"What?" Not only Luo Yao was surprised, but Gong Hui also showed surprise.
"I've also heard from people, but I don't know the specifics, but I've heard that the Twilight Coffee House is very famous in the French Concession, and many people like to drink coffee anywhere." Liu Jinbao continued.
It's Twilight Coffee House again!
Yoshida Shoushan made an appointment with "Lin Miao" and chose the location at the Twilight Coffee House.
The waiter who greeted Yoshida, an unusual conversation?
A wrapper about the sweets of the Twilight Cafe found at the Songtao Bookstore in Kagawa......
Now, with another Mimi, Katayama, he seems to have an unusual relationship with the Twilight Coffee House.
Is all this a coincidence?
It's not that Luo Yao doesn't believe in coincidences, but there are too few coincidences in this world, he studies mathematics and knows that this probability is too low, if one or two things are coincidental, it can still be said, but so many coincidences are superimposed.
That's not a coincidence, there must be an intrinsic connection.
Luo Yao decided in his heart that he and Gong Hui would go to this twilight coffee house again tomorrow, this place seemed to have too many mysteries waiting for him to solve.
……
"Why are you eyeing this Cliffor?" Tang Xin was very surprised when he heard the word "Cleaver" mentioned in Luo Yao's mouth.
"What, you're suspicious of this guy too?"
"This person is also well-known in Jiangcheng, he is an insurance broker on the surface, and he either goes in and out of a car or a car, and all the people who come and go are not officials and businessmen in Jiangcheng, but this person has another identity behind his back, that is, an intelligence broker." Tang Xin introduced.
"Intelligence broker, isn't this just the person we're looking for?" Luo Yao was not surprised, Cleaver was definitely not just an insurance broker.
"This guy is an Englishman with consular jurisdiction, even if we know what he does, we don't dare to touch him easily without conclusive evidence."
"Then the evidence of arresting him!" Luo Yaodao.
"Well, what are you going to do?" Tang Xin thought for a moment and agreed to Luo Yao's approach, as long as he could catch the evidence of Cleaver as a spy, then he could use this to coerce him to do something for me.
"Since this guy is a loner, the source of information should be the person he is dating or what he has seen and investigated, but how can he pass on information or trade with someone who needs it?" Luo Yao analyzed, "You just said that he is British, even if he has consular jurisdiction, but some crimes are not involved, right?" By the way, this kind of person is generally not checked when he mails letters abroad, right? ”
"Yes, if it is discovered, it will cause a diplomatic dispute." Tang Xin said, "Unless evidence of suspected espionage is found in the letter." ”
"Extraordinary times, extraordinary means, at this time, can you still take care of this?" Luo Yaodao, Lao Tzu is going to die in the country, and you still care about the so-called extrajudicial jurisdiction of your foreigners?
Tang Xin nodded: "I will send someone to follow him twenty-four hours a day, and I will notify you as soon as there is a situation." ”
"Okay."
……
"Boss Mu, we're here again."
"Mr. Qin, Miss Hui, welcome." Lao Mu greeted him warmly and welcomed the two to their old positions and sat down.
"As long as Boss Mu doesn't bother us, we can come every day."
"Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed, we open the door to do business, how can there be any reason to dislike guests." Lao Mu's face was full of smiles, "Are you two still the same today?" ”
"Well, as usual."
"Boss Mu, I won't eat dessert today, and I have a dinner party to attend in a while." Gong Hui added.
"Okay." Lao Mu agreed, turned around and went to tell the barista to brew coffee.
About ten minutes passed.
Lao Mu came over with coffee in person.
"Every time I come, it is Boss Mu who personally serves him, and Qin is really flattered." Luo Yao stood up, reached out and took his coffee and said.
"Our boss Mu, as long as it is a guest who fits his eyes, he will entertain him personally." On the side, the waiter with the fruit bowl explained.
Luo Yao smiled: "So that's the case." ”
"Don't listen to him, I like to chat with guests, and when I can talk to him, I'm naturally willing to chat more." Lao Mu bowed slightly, "The two of you use it slowly, I'll go and get busy first." ”
"Please." Luo Yao also nodded slightly.
"This Boss Mu is really interesting." Gong Hui added a piece of sugar cube, and while gently stirring the coffee in the cup with a spoon, she whispered to Luo Yao, clearly meaning something.
"In a moment, you find an excuse to go to the bathroom and feel the layout inside." Luo Yao lowered his head, took a sip of coffee, and commanded.
"Okay, what about you?"
"I want to hear what they have to say." Luo Yao explained.
……
"Boss, why do you pay so much attention to that person surnamed Qin?" The barista asked Lao Mu in a low voice.
"The seat he sits in is not suitable for two men and women who are in love, or have an intimate relationship." Lao Mu said softly.
The barista glanced over and asked, "Why?" ”
"Didn't you notice, that location is closer to the door, you can see the movement on the street outside through the window, and if something happens, you can leave the gate as soon as possible, don't look at them drinking coffee over there very leisurely, in fact, they are ready to leave at any time." Lao Mu explained.
"Boss, how do you understand this?"
"Hehe, just observe more, these two people are armed with guns, so naturally they can't be offended." Lao Mu smiled and said.
The barista let out an "ah" and almost spilled the hot coffee in the coffee pot on his hand, which was a cold sweat.
Hearing this, Luo Yao hurriedly picked up the coffee and took a sip to hide the inner embarrassment of being "seen through" at the moment, this Lao Mu is really very human, and the agents with improper eyesight and analytical judgment are blind.
Lao Mu didn't speak loudly, and his location was still some distance from the console, so ordinary people couldn't hear them from this distance, and it was certain that Lao Mu didn't say these words to him deliberately.
"Qin Ming, I'll go to the bathroom." Gong Hui saw that Luo Yao's face was different, thinking that it was a hint that she should go to the bathroom, so she stood up and said.
Luo Yao nodded: "Go ahead." ”
……
"Boss, Dachuan is back......" Luo Yao was really about to withdraw his mind from Lao Mu, and suddenly, a person ran from the direction of the back kitchen, came to Lao Mu, leaned close to his ear and said.
"What, who asked him to come back?" Lao Mu immediately said in a displeased tone.
"I don't know, he wants to see you right away."
"Let him wait and talk about it in the evening." Lao Mu's tone was quite cold, which was completely different from the warm voice that Luo Yao heard just now.
There's really something wrong with this old Mu!
"Who just went into the bathroom?"
"It's Miss Hui."
"Is that her?" Lao Mu frowned slightly, but did not continue to speak, waved his hand, and let his subordinates continue to be busy.
Gong Hui came out and passed by Lao Mu head-on.
"Lao Mu has a problem." Gong Hui came back, sat down, and said to Luo Yao in a low voice.
Luo Yao nodded: "I know, there is a person named Da Chuan who is back and wants to see him, and this person may also be the person we are looking for." ”
"The waiter?" Gong Hui said, Luo Yao told her
"Hmm."
