The guests in the café were cleared out one after another, and Miss Lianwu skillfully locked the door and hung up a sign to take a break.

"Welcome to Nianchuan Cafe, please." The store manager made a gesture of please.

Gu Ci walked into the store, looked around with his eyes, and then asked, "Presumably, the store manager is not an ordinary person, right?" ”

"And the lady next to me." He set his eyes on Miss Lianwu.

After hearing this, the two of them chuckled in their hearts, their eyes met each other, you look at me, I look at you, I didn't know what to say for a while, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

"Sir, how do you know that we are encroachers?" Miss Lianwu asked first.

"But I didn't say you were a cannibal species..."Gu Ci shook her head, and she realized that she had said something and quickly covered her mouth.

"Miss Lianwu, the wooden floor in the back room is a little dirty, please go and help deal with it." The store manager knows Miss Lianwu's urgency, and this kind of urgency often doesn't admit herself, and she often can't get off the stage and is embarrassed in place.

"Oh yes, leave it to me." Miss Lianwu nodded, turned around and walked to the back room.

After the door of the back room was closed, the store manager subconsciously turned his head to look at the place where he turned into the back room, and after making sure that there was no one, he said, "Now, we are the only ones left." ”

"Indeed, there are some things that only you and I can know."

"Need to borrow a step to speak?" In the next second, the store manager said affectionately, "Our 'king'." ”

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet again, and this time it was Gu Qi's turn to be silent, but it didn't take long for him to shake his head and say, "It's good here, because I don't have secrets." ”

"'The King'... I don't dare to be... It's just that the 'king' in strength is not the 'king' that I recognize in my heart, and many times it is a nickname for me. ”

The store manager handed over a cup of coffee, but Gu Ci didn't answer, but found a nearby chair to sit down, and looked around at the newly established store in front of him.

"Ninkawa Cafe... Shouldn't Ninkawa be an organization? After a pause, he asked.

"To tell you the truth, in this era where everything is faster than the marquee, I just want to slow down my life..."

"But the rhythm of Nianchuan doesn't make you completely relaxed." The store manager interrupted the words.

The store manager didn't get angry, but smiled, and continued, "Presumably, you can see it too." ”

"I've been secretly observing..."Gu Ci stood up from his position and picked up a cup of coffee that the store manager had placed in front of the counter, and he hesitated as he looked at the hot air on the coffee.

"Nianchuan's growth is your life's work, and I have also witnessed Nianchuan step by step to today." Gu Ci put down the coffee in his hand and asked, "How many years is it?" Count in your time. ”

"It's 2022."

"Unexpectedly, I've been in this world for almost two years...", Gu Ci couldn't help but mutter.

"It's been almost two years, are you still familiar with the pace of life here?" The store manager asked.

But after hearing this, the other party lowered his head and smiled and said, "You are human beings, I am not, because I do not belong to your society, nor do I belong to your world, in your words, I am an unknown lifeform, but I look like you, you think about it, it is not a thing that belongs here, no matter how much you adapt to it, it will not be accommodated." ”

"Looks like I asked too much."

"In this era when even the government and the country are unreliable, there are political sensitivities everywhere, people are panicked, and it is not systematic corruption, but it is also on the verge of collapse, and it is indeed not easy for Nianchuan to be established." "I want to ask a question, is that okay?" ”

"Say it." The store manager seemed to know what he was going to ask, and said without thinking.

"In this fast-paced era, has Nianchuan Forgotten Stream ever let you rest?"

The store manager didn't answer this question for the first time, and chose to turn his back to the past, "You have the ability to read everyone's heart, why do you still ask me?" ”

"Nian Chuan forgets to flow... Not only did it drain my energy, but it also took a lot of people's time..."

The manager said affectionately.

"I have no fixed place, from the first step in this world, I am destined to be a 'stranger' around human beings, whether it is the joys and sorrows of others, or their joys and sorrows, it has nothing to do with me."

"But the kid." The store manager mentioned Zhang Yitong.

"Give her a home, when she grows up, stay with you, and you give her another job"
