Chapter 029: Coffee Shop

The night in City A is mysterious and treacherous, like a bewitching woman in a green silk veil, the neon lights are her eyes, the flowing streets are her clothes, and the ancient buildings are her carcass, all of which make people full of endless longing and yearning for this messenger from the heavenly realm.

As an important transportation hub in the south of the Yangtze River, the prosperity and prosperity of City A are inseparable from its developed transportation economy, which has formed a series of chain effects and industrial chain structure, and the rapid development of the tertiary industry is beyond the reach of other cities, the most representative of which is the online game industry and peripheral services, the headquarters of the game giant Sky Company and the founding company are located here, so it can be seen that the status of City A and the role it plays are extraordinary.

However, people living in the city do not know that a showdown that symbolizes death and rebirth is about to begin in this prosperous land............

Nearly ten hours have passed since Zhen Shifeng finished the script of "Lucius", although the current network system stipulates that citizens should not play online for more than 500 minutes a day, but the time converted into "Strange Palace" is more than 80 hours, which can be described as quite sufficient. But then again, Zhen Shifeng is not the kind of networm who is addicted to games, even if it fits the scope of his work, he can't blindly fall into it, according to his 'philosophical concept', these people are: poor worms bound by their biological shells, ignorant and ignorant.

To sum up, Zhen Shifeng quit the game soon after completing the script, and then carried out some so-called 'casual' work, such as making himself a cup of sweet and delicious milk tea, feeding and changing water for the parrot to clean up the feathers, reading books and newspapers, writing some non-mainstream articles, and so on. In short, in his eyes, life has to be so casual that the soul will be liberated and free. However, this leisurely life was soon ruthlessly broken, and the reason was simple, four words: it's time to work.

"Uh......... Where does Daisy Coffee come from? Isn't it in the new district? Zhen Shifeng, who was wearing a jacket and a velvet hat, stood stupidly on the crowded street while holding a cup of strawberry milk tea, looking around at the shop signs, and taking two sips on the straw from time to time.

The name 'Daisy Coffee Shop' is both familiar and unfamiliar to Zhen Shifeng. Familiarly, when I was a child, my mother often took me to the opposite park to play, and when I was tired, I would order a cup of delicious milk coffee in the coffee shop, which could not only relieve fatigue but also calm down, and listen to classical music played on the gramophone by the way, which was quite intoxicating. But the strange thing is that I haven't been to this neighborhood since that huge accident, and my extreme aversion to coffee has also started since then, so it's no wonder that no one can bear the pain of touching the scene.

Time has passed, and the new district street has long since lost its original appearance after several large-scale renovations, the park has disappeared, the shops have moved away, and even the vines that crawl on the walls of the buildings have disappeared. 'Things are people, and everything is resting, and tears flow before words'. If it weren't for official needs, I'm afraid he would never have come to this place where his heartbreak and dreams broke again.

Fortunately, an enthusiastic aunt pointed out the location of the coffee shop for Zhen Shifeng in time, and after a short time, he arrived at the destination before the time agreed with the client, avoiding the embarrassing situation of being late.

"Yo, Mr. Zhen, you came on time." The bald man sitting in the corner sipping coffee recognized Zhen Shifeng at a glance, so he greeted him warmly. The latter, however, pointed at himself with a blank face, and suddenly made a sudden realization, and hurriedly leaned forward and whispered, "Uh......... You are the client, Mr. Chu? ”

"Haha, Mr. Zhen misunderstood, I am just the acting secretary of the master, and I am responsible for negotiating with you on the entrustment matters, you can call me Lao Xue directly." The bald man still looked polite, and at the same time stretched out his hand and made a 'please' gesture, motioning for Zhen Shifeng to sit down and taste the coffee.

"Oh, it turned out to be the bald head Xue, tsk, this title sounds vulgar and earthy, but I like it!"

"Poof~~" The bald man almost squirted out a sip of coffee, "It's Lao Xue, not the bald Xue, how can you give people random nicknames when you meet?" What's the trouble with adding a 'bald head' in front of the surname? Isn't there no human right to be bald? It's handsome and domineering, right? ”

Although Lao Xue really vomited a big groove in his heart, he still maintained his composure on the surface and smiled reluctantly, so he said politely: "Mr. Zhen, you are really humorous." ”

"Haha, thanks for the compliment, in fact, I don't tell you, I think so too." Saying that, Zhen Shifeng patted his chest shamelessly, without the slightest hint of fraud.

"............" Lao Xue was in a crash on the spot.

With a bang, Zhen Shifeng first poured the coffee in front of him into the flower pot on the side, and then poured all the milk tea in his hand into the cup containing the coffee, tasted a few sips and let out a long sigh with a muffled voice: "Hmm......... Tsk, the taste is really delicious, instead of drinking that water to brew coffee beans, I would rather have a lump of golden organic matter in this cup of milk tea! ”

"Huh...... Hehe......... Your tastes are truly unique. With a few actions and a few words, Lao Xue had a very objective evaluation of Zhen Shifeng, very simple, three words: unreliable!

After stabilizing his mood, the bald old Xue straightened his clothes, and his expression immediately became serious, and then he took out an envelope from his pocket and said solemnly: "Mr. Zhen, your wonderful performance in last year's gold robbery was very appreciated by my master, so the master will personally name you, I hope you can do your best to help without sparing your intelligence, here, on behalf of my master, I thank you in advance." ”

"Be polite, the gold robbery is trivial, but your master is still a ......... of vision" Zhen Shifeng wanted to take the opportunity to boast, but he suddenly noticed something unusual, and hurriedly asked: "Wait, how did your master know about the gold robbery?" I remember that the news about this incident was blocked by a very powerful figure from the top of the Chu Group, right? Unless it was someone who experienced it on the ground, the media, the police, the government, or even the general public would not have known about it. Well, your master is ............"

"Mr. Zhen is really keen, yes, my master is the buyer of the gold in the robbery, that is, the head of the Chu Group, Mr. Chu Wentian." When mentioning the name of his master, Lao Xue's eyes lit up, and his pride doubled, and it was definitely a supreme honor to serve the head of the Chu Group.
