Sometime in mid-August.

Sunny noon.

Xia Fan put away the counter and coffee machine on the first floor, and planned to go upstairs to take down the lunch box that had been prepared long ago and serve it as lunch.

And it just so happened that the two girls also walked down from the second floor.

"Hey, are you two going out?"

"Well, it's nice to have a new Japanese restaurant nearby...... Xiaofan wants to be together? ”

"No, I've already prepared a bento ......"

Xia Fan shook his head.

Moreover, at noon, how can you do it without leaving someone in the store to watch the store? Although the passenger flow is always bleak to the point of outrageousness, it is still not passive.

"Okay, sisters go first~"

The second daughter said so, then turned her back to him, stepped on high heels, and left with a smile.

As the sound of da-da-da-da gradually faded away, and finally the old-fashioned door opening bell rang, Xia Fan knew that the two had gone out.

He went to the bathroom, washed his hands, went to the second floor, and pulled out a prepared bento from his locker—a platter-like dish of meatballs, egg rolls, tempura, ham, and more.

When you are accustomed to eating sweets in the store, it is inevitable that you will have a special desire for salty food.

INTERVIEWER That's probably the sentiment of every employee who works at the pastry shop.

Humming a little song, he took out the bento box, then pulled out a weekly magazine that was placed behind the door of the studio, intending to go downstairs and make himself another cup of peach oolong milk tea to enjoy with lunch.

Ah, even though this scene has been repeated many times, there is always a subtle sense of happiness.

He thought to himself.

Then, I pulled out a weekly magazine and was about to go downstairs......

Xia Fan suddenly showed a confused expression.

He was behind the door of his studio, where the magazine column was kept, when he spotted something strange.

Something fell into the crack in the doorway, and it was a rectangular, thin book wrapped in a pure white book cover.

Subconsciously picked up the book, and the moment I saw the cover......

"This, this is ......"

Xia Fan's tone was surprised.

He held the book in one hand and studied it carefully.

This is it...... How to describe it.

First of all.

Two men are depicted on the cover.

The two-dimensional aesthetic painting style, the two men are almost in their twenties, very handsome, handsome to excessive, handsome to the point of numbness, handsome to reveal a Mary Sue flavor.

But none of that matters.

Because, the two men on the cover are untidy, and their eyes are blurred in the posture of being knocked on the wall, and their movements are quite ambiguous......

Attack and receive clearly. (crossed out)

Of course, in the eyes of Xia Fan, who is also a man, ambiguous yarn, this action has caused him all kinds of discomfort.

This is supposed to be a doujinshi.

And it's a mysterious work without a signed author.

Xia Fan judged.

And then.

On the book cover, the text written in a flowing font should be the title of doujinshi.

"I'll take a look at ...... "Boss I Want"...... The story of the gentle big boy protagonist and the young president...... Tags:Loyal dog attack x high cold ......"

“…… What the hell is this! ”

Xia Fan was dumbfounded.

The whole looks like it's selling meat.,Anyway,It should be the Tanmei in the same people......

Because he is a man, he has never seen these things, and can only guess from the layman's point of view.

"Why is this thing here?"

Xia Fan was confused.

He took the doujinshi in his hand and observed the meeting, and was about to return to its original place, when it was none of his business, when suddenly, the door of the studio was pushed open.

"Ahhhh

As if he had done something wrong and was discovered, Xia Fan let out a series of exclamations.

And at the last moment, he used the fastest speed to stuff the red-faced fandom into his clothes and hide it.

"Little Sail? So you're on the second floor. ”

"Huh? What happened to you? Why are you the same as the little junior brother who just finished stealing the little yellow book? ”

Su Chen and Su Xiaoxiao walked into the studio together.

This happens from time to time — if Bilibili isn't busy, the two of them occasionally come to the store during their lunch break.

"Haha no, the teacher doesn't have to worry about it, I just want to get a bento, and then go downstairs to eat while watching the store."

Xia Fan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead that was not too obvious, and said with a smile.

- Hey, it's too dangerous.

If you were to be seen holding something like that...... I'm afraid that it won't directly let him die socially.

Especially the people who came were Su Chen and Su Xiaoxiao, the two teachers he respected the most.

Fortunately, under the stimulation of the desire to survive, he hid it with the speed of electric light and flint, otherwise it would really crack.

is like a stiff robot, after Xia Fan said hello to the two, he hid "Boss I Want" in his clothes and fled the scene.

As a result, Su Chen, who passed by him, suddenly smiled elusively, as if he had seen everything, and said to him in a low voice behind him:

"Xiaofan, I won't mind, I understand when the boy reaches his age...... However, don't be so blatant, just read the little yellow book at the door of the studio. ”

“……”

Because Su Xiaoxiao was still present, Xia Fan, who was difficult to argue, could only nod without tears, and silently carried a cauldron.

Now, I can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River......

"Phew, let's put this thing back when we get the chance."

When he arrived on the first floor, Xia Fan carefully took the book out of his arms, and without looking at it, he directly stuffed it into the drawer under the computer.

As the saying goes.

The most dangerous place is the safest.

It seems to be a very obvious office drawer, but in fact, no one else uses it except for him, who checks out the store every day.

After completing this series of smooth operations and confirming that no one had found out, Xia Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He planned to finish eating and wait until Su Chen and Su Xiaoxiao left the store, and then go upstairs to put the things back.

pondering the plan of "returning things to their original places", when the panic gradually subsided, Xia Fan also began to think deeply.

recalled the cover of "Boss I Want" in his mind, and he was shocked just now and didn't react......

Now that I think about it, who is this weird fanshi?

It doesn't look like the people in the store would have it!

He arranged the faces of the store members in his mind in turn for analysis.

First of all, Xu Wenchang, who was the former store manager, then Su Chen, the current store manager, Su Xiaoxiao, Su Chen's sister, then the two teachers in the baking and decorating workshop, and finally the assistant Yinsha, Feng Yu, and himself.

Of course, not every one of these people is suspicious.

Uncle Xu Wenchang has not come back abroad, so he ruled it out.

The two backroom teachers never go in and out of the comic studio, and they are excluded.

And then there's yourself, well, excluding yourself, which you can't forget.

Su Chen's words, the other party is a man anyway, and he is also the current boss of Bilibili, so he has no motive at all, so he went to buy Tanmei Doujinzhi, right?

…… Naturally, it is also necessary to exclude.

Therefore, the three people who have a motive should be Su Xiaoxiao, Yin Sha, and Feng Yu.

He was convinced.

Generally speaking, only girls will watch the doujinshi of the Tanmei class.,So the prisoner is definitely among these three motivated women.,It's a classic three-choice bridge.。

Detective Jun Xia Fan opened the bento while thinking.

The smell of the fragrance lifted his spirits.

All in all, solving a crime is not something that an ordinary clerk should do, let alone what a painter should think.

What Xia Fan is looking forward to now is that Su Chen and Su Xiaoxiao will go back quickly, so that the studio can be vacated and he will have a chance to quietly return his things to their original places.

Otherwise, if Yin Sha and Feng Yu come back after eating, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to return the book in the next afternoon.

And, then again......

It is said to be Tanmei.

Actually, that thing can't be some kind of forbidden ○○ product, right?

After a long time.

Xia Fan, who had finished eating, suddenly thought curiously.

Curiosity made his heart itch, looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one around, he gently opened the corner of the drawer, took out "Boss I Want", and carefully flipped through it.

"Be calm ......"

Looking at the two "affectionate" men on the cover, cold sweat broke out on his forehead and he was short of breath.

At the same time, he repeatedly silently said in his heart, "It's just to confirm whether the content is healthy, not really want to watch it" Yunyun.

The content inside is no different from ordinary comics from the beginning.

It's just that, after a period of "foreplay" plot, starting from a certain page of the fandom, the two big men began to lie on the bed indescribably.

？？？

Ah, ...... this?

What's going on with this picture that's not right?!

Xia Fan was shocked.

It turns out that the theme of Tanmei is ...... Do you have a carnivorous one......

Strange knowledge has increased!

It's not good, it's not good.

It's really bad now.

Such a black-smelling reading material actually existed in the store or something, which made his mind a mess.

When it is messy......

"Xia Fan! Do you have a good look at the store? ”

"Babble, ah, ah——!"

The sudden sound of greeting startled him, and he almost didn't bounce.

That lovely face was full of panic, and let out a scream like that of a dying man.

Xia Fan glanced in the direction of the door.

It turned out that Yin Yarn and Feng Yu, who had come back from eating, pushed the door and walked in and were greeting him.

"Sorry, it doesn't seem like the time for us to come back?"

History is always strikingly similar.

The keen Yinsha noticed Xia Fan's unusual reaction, and Yinsha teased with a very knowing smirk on her face.

Put away "Boss I Want" skillfully.

Xia Fan felt unlucky.

"Sister Yinsha, don't worry, I'm just doing vocal exercises - then again, you came at the right time, and the teacher and Xiaoxiao are also upstairs."

"Oh! Are you sure? ”

After hearing this, the two of them quickly went upstairs.

Seeing the figures of the two girls going upstairs away, Xia Fan was a little uncomfortable.

They came back early.

It was beyond his expectations.

In this way, won't I have a chance to return "Boss I Want" back today?

"Damn...... Whose reading is this? ”

Xia Fan began to get irritable.

If you want to say that among the three suspects, the person with the most otaku atmosphere is naturally Su Xiaoxiao......

But the other party has never even chatted about works on this theme.

She is an otaku girl but not a rotten girl, so the suspicion is very small.

Not to mention the words of the sound yarn.,Usually a warm and generous look.,It's not like a person who would do such an act as hiding rotten books.。

As for Feng Yu's words, the other party seems to be only interested in reading books on the theme of secondary two.

No matter how he said it, he couldn't imagine that Feng Yu used that serious expression to look at Tanmei ○○ doujinshi.

Recently, the other party has only watched "Sin Crown" and "Accelerated World"!

"No, I'm pulling the brakes."

Burning a lot of brain cells, reasoning completely entered a dead end, and Xia Fan collapsed on the table with a headache.

In this case, the last resort is to hide the books here first, and then fold them back after the store closes in the evening, and return the "Boss I Want" to its original place.

As for the prisoner or something, it is better not to think about it than to see it, and after the thing is returned to its original place, it is better not to think about it.

Having made up his mind about the battle plan, Xia Fan was mentally prepared to "sneak in after the store was closed".

Well......

About half an hour later, Su Chen and Su Xiaoxiao left the store and returned to the company.

Xia Fan went upstairs to take a look, the two women sat on the seats and did not move, and the studio had no visual blind spots at all, so they could only wait until the store closed and came back to implement the battle plan.

A frustrating afternoon passed.

Since it is August, the days are long and the nights are short.

It wasn't until six o'clock that Tone Yarn and Wind Feather had the intention of finishing their work.

And Xia Fan, who saw this scene, couldn't ask for it, and just came up at six o'clock, he completed a series of processes of closing the door and closing the store.

"Then, Sister Yinsha, Sister Fengyu, I'll see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow."

The three of them separated at the door of the store and returned to their residences.

Xia Fan deliberately pretended to have an attitude that was no different from usual, returned to his residence normally, took a slow shower, changed into a set of inconspicuous clothes, and then turned back to the store.

This is also his intentional, deliberately controlling time.

Otherwise, if you turn back too quickly, what will you do if you meet someone who forgets to take something?

But.

He walked around to the back door of the store and was about to open the door and sneak in, he was dumbfounded.

"No, it won't, right?"

Looking at the unlocked back door of the store, he muttered to himself.

- Before leaving, he confirmed that the door was locked, and now someone opened it, indicating that there must be someone in the store who turned back to the store.

And I chose to go through the back door......

What does this mean?

It shows that the people in the store are most likely prisoners!

After the prisoner found that the important reading materials were lost during the day, he remained silent on the surface, but in fact he was panicked to death, so he decided to come to the store at night to find the copy of "The Boss I Want" after no one was closed.

Thinking from the perspective of the prisoner, Xia Fan felt that he was gradually peeking into the truth of the matter.

The options now in front of him are nothing more than two.

One is to be more secure and quiet, wait and see what happens, and wait until the people inside are gone, and then go in to return the book.

The second is to satisfy your curiosity, go directly to the hard solo, and by the way, find out who the prisoner is......

So, do you still need to think about this special meow?

It's a pure man, decisively choose the second one!

Xia Fan lightly pushed open the door, like a secret spy lurking in the enemy's base camp, and cautiously began to search for the prisoners in the store.

According to him.

The prisoner will definitely be very anxious at this time, and will be in a panic to find the place where the books and periodicals were lost, that is, in the studio on the second floor.

If you go directly to the second floor, you can get a glimpse of the true face of this prisoner.

Reasoning like this in his heart, Xia Fan cautiously did not make footsteps and went upstairs.

……
