The official starting time for work is eight o'clock.
They arrived too early, it was only a little after half past seven.
There is no one in the small shop yet. The wallpaper of this coffee shop is dark gray. There is a row of single seats in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. They are probably prepared for singles. At this time, the fat man is sitting on one of the seats.
.
Next to other tables are dark gray leather sofas, which look very heavy.
All in all, this is a store that looks quite high-end.
Coupled with his own face, the whole store's style would be even higher - Gu Mian thought.
He tugged on the tie that made his neck feel uncomfortable, and turned to look at Liu Ruyan next to him. Due to force majeure, he had to go through the dungeon again with the landlady who had caused him to lose a bicycle.
Although the relationship is not great, you still need to ask the things that should be asked.
Gu Mian casually sat at the table closest to the counter: "So we already have three of the nine players here."
As he spoke, he stretched out his index finger and tapped the table: "Liu Ruyan, have you seen other players?"
I saw her sitting in front of the wooden counter, holding her chin and shaking her head: "I live alone in a nearby community. I checked the house and mobile phone in the copy that arrived at 0:20 last night before I found out about this place."
"Mobile phone?" The fat man was a little confused, "Doctor, do we not have mobile phones?"
"Probably not." Gu Mian pinched her forehead with a headache.
The mobile phone has not been used in dungeons for a long time, so I subconsciously ignored it.
Gu Mian specifically searched for it, but couldn't find it, so she had to rush over in order not to be late.
Of course, he didn't want to play the role of a diligent and good employee. When Gu Mian came here, he thought that he might meet other players here. Now it seems that he was right, even though he met the one he least expected to see.
this.
At this time, Liu Ruyan was turning over a piece of paper on the counter and said with a smile: "By the way, you have no experience in this area, so I want to remind you first, when a guest comes in, you have to say - Miss
,Welcome home."
Gu Mian pursed her lips slightly and suppressed her smile.
I'm afraid he will laugh out loud and spray spittle all over the guests.
The fat man sat in the single VIP seat and asked thoughtfully: "Then do I need to say that too?"
Liu Ruyan glanced at the fat man: "I don't think you have a chance to show your face."
Fatty: "..."
"The remaining players may also come to this place." Gu Mian calmed down and held his chin with his index finger and thumb.
But it’s not necessarily in what way.
Maybe a customer...
Thinking of this, Gu Mian frowned. Forget about the female player, would Chu Changge come to a place like this?
Seemingly sensing Gu Mian's thoughts, the fat man stretched out his index finger and shook it in front of his face: "Maybe Mr. Chu is working as a waiter at the Dou S milk tea shop next door? For example, when a girl goes to drink milk tea,
Brother Chu would push up his glasses and say, 'You can't drink any more, you're already fat' or something like that."
Following Fatty's description, Gu Mian strangely imagined this scene.
Gu Mian quickly shook her head to get rid of Chu Changge, who was expressionlessly saying "fat", out of her mind.
He asked Liu Ruyan with some uncertainty: "Is there no other cafe nearby?"
Liu Ruyan seemed to think for a moment: "As far as I know, there is none."
Hearing this, the fat man looked a little disappointed: "I thought Miss Xiao Qiao would be in a maid cafe, and when she saw us, she would say 'Master, welcome home' or something like that..."
"Put away your dangerous thoughts." Gu Mian glanced at the fat man.
"This city is very big. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find the person you are looking for, so you'd better stay here." Liu Ruyan glanced at the time. It was almost eight o'clock. "Since the three of us can
If we gather here, other people may come, and we may hear some useful information from the guests."
"By the way, do you want to check my phone?" She said as she took out a phone and pushed it towards Gu Mian, "I get most of the information from this phone."
Gu Mian reached out and touched Liu Ruyan's cell phone.
Probably for the convenience of players, there is no screen lock password.
Gu Mian first checked the messages on her phone, but there was nothing useful in the messages. Most of them were balance warnings and spam advertisements for Yangkun games.
He turned off his phone and looked at his address book.
I saw several pages of phone numbers recorded in the address book, most of which were guests, including those of Fatty Gu Mian, Liu Jie and Yang Ziwen.
Gu Mian closed the address book again and clicked on the green social software on the screen.
Nowadays, most people communicate through convenient social software, and as expected, he saw a lot of information as soon as he opened it.
Most of this information is business dealings.
Gu Mian habitually turned to the bottom and looked up from the bottom.
I saw that Liu Ruyan was indeed a profiteer and bought low-quality raw materials, but the consumption level of this store was not considered low.
What's even more outrageous is that the latest message is about perfume. Gu Mian never thought that she would have to wear perfume while working in this store.
[Liu Jie: The boss’s perfume backstage is almost gone! 】
At this time, Liu Ruyan on the side took out a newly bought bottle of perfume from the drawer: "I bought it on the way, do you want to use it?"
Gu Mian took a few steps back to stay away from the persecution.
"Okay, the time is almost up," Liu Ruyan glanced at the clock on the wall, "I'm going backstage."
The fat man said with some confusion: "Why don't you stay and sit outside?"
Liu Ruyan smiled slightly: "The ladies don't want the face they like to have a boss lady."
"Indeed," the fat man nodded solemnly and looked at Gu Mian, "I think they don't want to see a man more handsome than you. This will make them feel a sense of crisis."
As he spoke, the fat man came over and patted Gu Mian on the shoulder: "Our boss lady is one of our own anyway, so I skipped work and went outside to see if I could meet anyone else. I was quite afraid that Brother Chu wouldn't be able to find us.
"
So Gu Mian watched this man who was more handsome than herself walk out of the door.
He was the only one left in the small cafe. Gu Mian had already stood up from his seat. It was not good for customers to see the waiter slumped on his seat.
He just stood there in a daze.
Gu Mian has not worked as a waiter in more than 20 years, mainly because she was afraid that customers would suddenly die from poison while eating.
Fortunately, not many people came here to have fun on Friday morning. Gu Mian stood there until nearly ten o'clock before welcoming the first batch of desperate customers.
This is a girl with a slightly round face, who looks like she is still in school; she has two ponytails, and the little cherries on the rubber band sway with her movements, making her look a little shy.
Next to her was a girl of about the same age with hair, smiling at Gu Mian.
Gu Mian immediately walked to the door and said her line dutifully - "Miss... welcome home"
The two of them sat down near the door, and Gu Mian then heard the girl with the hair talking to her friend: "Let me tell you, the one this morning was the best..."
While they were ordering, Gu Mian heard the door behind her being pushed open again.
He turned back dutifully: "Miss, Huan..."
But he swallowed it back mid-sentence.
I saw the glass door behind me being pushed open, and a person walked in. The sunlight slanted into the store through the glass, illuminating the person's face.
Chu Changge looked at Gu Mian and pushed up his glasses expressionlessly: "Why don't you continue talking."
"..."
How did you find him here? Gu Mian really wanted to ask this.
However, there were two girls sitting at the table next to him. Gu Mian had no choice but to swallow everything he said. She took Chu Changge to the most remote corner and sat down before whispering: "How did you find them?"
Chu Changge looked at the menu in his hand carefully: "I am a student. Wang Xin, Qiao Chu and Xiao Wan, who are in the same class as me, did not come to the first class today. I found out that the three of them rented a house together outside...
Caramel macchiato, add more sugar.”
Gu Mian paused slightly: "Okay, I understand, continue."
"I found where they lived and went in."
"I have the numbers of these three people on my phone. I called to confirm before I went there. Xiao Wan is a player, and her nickname is Magical Girl Usagi Maru. There is no need to mention Qiao Chu."
Gu Mian knew that Xiao Qiao's real name was Qiao Chu.
"They told me their situation on the phone. Wang Xin died last night. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xiao Qiao hid the body directly under the bed, and the two of them are now studying the place where Wang Xin went a few days ago.
This place, it would be a waste of time to come back and open the door for me."
"I directly used the special item 'Car No. 1 Warehouse Access Card' to enter their house. That card was given to me by you."
Gu Mian didn't have an inventory and couldn't hold many special items, so most of them were given to Chu Changge and Fatty.
He remembered that the thing Chu Changge was talking about was obtained in the Strange Train Escape copy. It was a one-time access card that could open any door that was swiped.
Now that Chu Changge has entered, according to his character...
Gu Mian suddenly lowered her voice and looked at Chu Changge seriously: "Did you remove the body?"
Chu Changge's fingers holding the menu moved slightly. After a few seconds, he raised his eyes and looked at Gu Mian: "The body is gone."
"Then I ransacked Wang Xin's house."
Gu Mian knew that Chu Changge's so-called "turning over" must be a real turning over, and the floor would be lifted by him even if he said it.
"I found this in a coat pocket."
As Chu Changge spoke, he took out a business card and walked back to Gu Mian: "Of course there are other business cards in her room, but this one is the most pointed."
Because the two characters "Gu Mian" are written in the middle of this business card.
Gu Mian looked down and saw that in addition to her name in the middle, there was also his phone number at the bottom of the business card, which was his workplace - "Weaver Girl Cafe"
Chu Changge put down the menu, folded his hands and supported his chin: "That's why I came here."
