Chapter 112 "Encounter"

Although the temperature in winter is not as cold as other places in Huaguo, the unique subtropical climate always makes it rain continuously.

In recent days, the sky in Tiandu City has not been very clear. It is either rainy or gloomy, which makes the already panic-stricken citizens of Tiandu City even more irritable.

As the saying goes, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings.

But there is another saying that is also very good, people cannot always be unlucky, and the sky cannot always thunder.

No, the sun rarely appears in the sky of Tianshui City today. The sky is clear and cloudless, and the sun is shining. Citizens who have been cooped up at home for many days appear in the streets and alleys. back.

In a cafe facing the street about three blocks away from Tianshui Street, Shen Xiu was sitting lazily at a table by the window, bathed in the sunlight, looking aimlessly at the pedestrians coming and going on the street.

Shen Xiu picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip.

"Tsk, I'm really not suitable for drinking this stuff."

As he entered the bitter coffee, he frowned slightly, if it wasn't for the people sitting around him, he would have spit it out secretly.

"I don't know what those people who like this thing think."

Shen Xiu swallowed forcefully, muttered something softly, and no longer had the desire to take a cup, and continued to look out the window, as if the scenery outside attracted him more than this cup of bitter coffee.

A few days ago, after seeing off Sun Lei and Fang Hang, he returned to the rental house and waited for "certain people" to arrive.

However, the situation seemed to be different from what he had imagined.

Waiting and waiting, whether it is the Visionary Society who regards the God of Vision as everything and longs for that eyeball, the Eternal Life Society who is the original owner of the eyeball, or the Tiandu City who knows that the thing is here No one from the Foreign Affairs Bureau sent anyone to look for him.

The news had obviously spread, but there was no response from his side, which made Shen Xiu even wonder if the eyeball in his hand was actually a fake.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Sophie to hear the news that Zhou Cheng asked her to tell him that the Bureau of Foreign Affairs has been very busy recently because of several restricted areas that popped up out of thin air, and neither Xue Qian nor Han Mingsheng had time to trouble him.

But people from the Foresight Society and the Eternal Life Society are about to arrive in Tiandu, so let him be careful.

As for those forbidden areas that suddenly appeared, they were naturally written by him.

He found that he could transform into a phantom in his head with the help of "Alien Body", and he was not limited by time and space, how could he bear it.

Reporting that the fish hadn't taken the bait anyway, it was better to strengthen his strength first, and found a few horror movies to watch.

It's just that after watching the movie, although his strength has barely increased a little, it is not what he thought, and he can immediately transform into another phantom.

Everything went back to the time when he tried to become Clenin before, and was trapped by an invisible and intangible membrane.

When the same situation happened, Shen Xiu originally thought that as long as the same steps were followed, the film would disappear naturally.

But this time the situation is different from before.

In the past few days at home, except for watching a few movies on the first day, he has been trying to pierce the "membrane" in the next few days, but until today, he has not succeeded.

Counting the days, the days of the Foresight Society and the Eternal Life Society were estimated to end in these two days, so he gave up trying and went outside, wondering if he could meet them on the street.

Walking all the way to this cafe, Shen Xiu suddenly changed her mind.

Instead of waiting passively in the rental house, it is better to go to Tianshui Street with great fanfare and attract those people.

This way, on the one hand, it avoids involving other innocent people, and on the other hand, if someone sees "Kleining", they can use Tianshui Street as a cover.

Kill two birds with one stone!
Ding Dong!

Just as Shen Xiu was staring out the window blankly, a woman with extremely outstanding temperament and appearance walked into the cafe.

The woman stood at the door, took off the brown sunglasses on the bridge of her nose, looked left and right, and walked towards Shen Xiu who was sitting by the window in a graceful manner amidst the strange eyes of all the customers.

"Excuse me, is there anyone here?" The woman's soft and extremely charming voice sounded.

Shen Xiu turned her head to look at her, her amazed eyes flashed past, and she said a word lightly:

"Have."

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, as if the question just now was just out of politeness, and she didn't really care. She slid her left hand along her slender waist, straightened her dress, and sat gracefully across from Shen Xiu.

Shen Xiu raised her eyebrows and glanced at the woman again, but she didn't chase her away.

It's not that he was attracted by this woman's beauty. If so, he wouldn't have said the word "yes" just now, but he had sat here long enough, and it was time to leave.

Shen Xiu stood up lazily, without looking sideways, and was about to leave when the woman who had just ordered coffee suddenly said softly:
“Every angler thinks that as long as their bait is heavy enough, there is no fish that they can’t catch, but they forget one thing. Just having enough bait is not enough to catch the fish. The fisherman himself has enough strength to pull the fish."

Shen Xiu paused, and simply sat down, looked carefully at this woman who was impeccable both in appearance and temperament, and said with a half-smile:
"Since they dare to put bait, fishermen will naturally have the confidence to pull the fish out of the water. They don't need to worry about other people who want to fish but don't have bait."

"Confidence is certainly a good thing, but blind self-confidence is conceited." Thank you.

The woman took a cup of latte art coffee brought by the waiter, but she didn't drink it, she just turned the cup and stared at the latte art in the cup.

"Just like this cup of coffee, the barista who made this latte art coffee must be very satisfied with his technique, confident enough to think that he can win the favor of all customers, but he doesn't know how ridiculous this thing is in the eyes of some people .”

After finishing speaking, the woman blew heavily on the latte art, and the latte art floating on the surface of the coffee was blown away, floated out of the cup, sprinkled on the table, and finally turned into a little water.

As if she never expected such a dignified and elegant woman to do such a thing, a strange look flashed in Shen Xiu's eyes, and she smiled and said:
"But have some people ever thought that since the barista dares to make a living in this industry, he may have the ability to suppress the bottom of the box, and the cup of coffee that makes people laugh is just a product of a random production."

The woman's lips curled up slightly, she gently put down the coffee cup, looked at Shen Xiu who was also smiling across the way, and said:
"Whether it is hand-made or dedicated, in the eyes of professionals, this is a sign of insufficient strength. Even if the barista really has the so-called 'unique skill at the bottom of the box', for the top barista in this line To the small group of people, it is still just a joke."

"A joke?" Shen Xiu smiled and shook her head, "Is it a joke? The so-called professionals don't count, and the barista doesn't count. You have to compare yourself to know."

At this moment, a heavy bell rang outside the cafe.

clang!
It came from a nearby bell tower.

"The time is almost up. If there is a chance to meet next time, let's discuss this 'professional issue'."

Without giving the woman another chance to speak, Shen Xiu got up and left the seat quickly after saying this sentence.

However, just a second before Shen Xiu pushed open the door of the cafe, the woman's voice, which was enough to make all the men in the cafe commotion, came into his ears clearly:

"Remember, my name is Tie Rong."
