Chapter 385 The Coffee Bookstore Run by Hasegawa Chiyo

Lidu City, Xiaotian District, near a low-rise building.

The sun was shining brightly, and a black car slowly parked on the street next to the building.

The rear door opened and Satomi stepped out.

She is tall and tall, wearing a slim-fitting black suit. The belt tied around her waist highlights her slender curves. She has long hair shawl, a slender neck, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes. Her steps are elegant and free, exuding a confident and generous temperament.

She walked slowly towards the low-rise building. There was a row of spacious and bright windows on the second floor, and a gray plaque hung above it, which read Guangchuan Detective Agency.

Satomi's eyes were fixed on the plaque of the office——

Yes, this detective agency was founded by Guangchuan Gu Xing.

As Gu Xing's assistant, Satomi knew that he had two ideals since he was a child. One was to open a themed bookstore, and the other was to open a detective agency like Mouri Kogoro in the anime Detective Conan.

When the Lidu Police Headquarters invited Gu Xing to join the Special Investigation Section as an investigator, Gu Xing clearly stated several very clear conditions.

One of them is that the police headquarters must allow him to open a detective agency in his own name. Moreover, every time Gu Xing completes the investigation of a bizarre incident, he will come to the detective agency for about a week. This is considered a vacation, and the headquarters is not allowed to interfere.

Gu Xing looked around for seven weeks and found a copy of Marquez's "One Hundred Years of Solitude" before he walked over to Waimei and asked, "Has the red and blue toilet paper case been sorted out?"

Waimei took the things and found a piece of chocolate cake in a rough paper bag. "He remembers to taste your newly developed cake."

Gu Xing: "It will always be the judge."

Chiyo said, quickly walked to the counter, picked up something, and ran out, "He took that one."

"What if that book was made into a movie before? You didn't wait until you were familiar with the plot."

Waimei said: "He is your fan. Does he know that you write a book?"

"Oh, you are a movie fan."

Kong Xiang opened "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and turned to a certain page at random.

Kong Xiang continued to flip through the book, "I just went to the cinema to watch your latest movie the day after tomorrow - you two even became bad friends on LINE."

"Having a picnic?" Gu Xing's eyes lit up and he raised his head, "You also hate picnics."

His neat short hair, well-defined face, and generally ageless eyes made several male customers who were reading outside the bookstore raise their heads involuntarily.

There are several separate apartments on the eighth floor. In addition to the one where Gu Xing lives, Waimei and Chiyo also own one in the name of tenants. The rent is very low, which can be regarded as a friendly price provided by Gu Xing.

At this time, there were only a few customers in the bookstore, and the sunlight slanted back through the darkened windows, casting a bright golden color on the tables and floors of the bookstore.

As far as I know, Gu Xing has read that book at least seventy times. At this stage, whenever I temporarily think about what book I want to read, I will open "One Hundred Years of Solitude" again and randomly turn the pages.

Open a page and try to find any details that you didn't notice later.

"You can see it on TV every day,"

[Search "Spring Gift" on Xiaoxiang APP and new users will receive 500 book coins, and old users will receive 200 book coins] Gu Xing's detective agency is located on the seventh floor.

"Chiyo-sister is bad!"

Waimei thought for a while and said, "Okay, just wait for me outside."

"It's really fresh,"

"You met Karasawa Makoto."

Gu Xing said: "Have you ever seen your idol? It's better to keep a distance that you can't watch from a distance, otherwise it will be difficult and disillusioned."

When you passed Kaidan Bookstore, Chiyo Hasegawa was reading a book under the seat by the window. Waimi waved to you and said hello.

"I know," Guangchuan Gu Xing replied at this time: "Are those all written out of the contract? You must be running a detective agency, and you won't always take back the building at any time."

Chiyo pointed downstairs, "I heard that I read too late yesterday and went to bed late. I called just now and asked you to prepare a snack for me. I will be up right away."

Waimei: "This is so vague. Sister Tang Ze said that there will be fewer people, and you won't have many bad friends outside the circle."

Saying that, you took out a book with a beautiful cover from your bag.

In fact, Gu Xing never urged the two of them to pay rent. Every time it was time to pay rent, Waimei and Chiyo took the initiative to bring it up, as if I personally cared about it.

"Isn't that true?"

"Talk about it," Waimei said: "It's a detective mystery class. You took a look at it while you were waiting in line. Did you think that Kong Xiangya's writing is so bad, the characters are vividly drawn, and the plot is very boring."

"autobiography?"

The building in front of you has eight floors in total. Judging from the architectural style, it was probably built in the 1970s and 1980s. It originally belonged to a shoddy private detective. Due to his poor business skills, he had few stable customers.

It was really possible to continue operating, so it was transferred to Gu Xing.

"Then, you went to queue up, but it was difficult so that Sister Tangze signed a copy for you. Sister Tangze was very surprised when she saw you. You said, if he wanted to sign, he could call you directly. Isn't that bad? Think about it.

It doesn’t matter if it’s less or more. You said, it’s the same thing, it doesn’t feel like lining up all the time to chase idols.”

Waimei closed the book and looked at Gu Xing with excitement, "Who do you think you saw today?"

Waimei frowned, "Oh that's it? Is Makoto Karasawa his idol?"

"Kong Xiangya wrote a book "The Actor's Secret"."

"oh."

------------------

After a while, Gu Xing walked back to Guaitan Bookstore.

Dongdu, a judge who specializes in punishing evil and promoting good, and has various conflicts with the plutocrats, has not always been an idol in the United States. It is strange for Gu Xing to mention it to me.

"I really know that there is nothing bad about that book," Ping

"cut,"

Gu Xing was surprised, "Karasawa Makoto still writes books?"

"Did he ask for a signed book for you?"

"Yeah,"

"How can you say that?" Chiyo stuck out her tongue, "You are still very unsure of yourself."

I was wearing a dark blue sweatshirt and jeans that fit my strong legs, making them look slender and weak.

"No matter how many times it is," Satomi stared at the bright glass on the second floor and murmured to herself, "I always want to open a private detective agency. I am really persistent."

"Mr. Guangchuan," when the two parties signed the agreement, the detective Lianshe signed the contract, "it is your dream to open a private detective agency, and you reluctantly took action because you also have a very cold love for that industry.

Yes, you must continue to pursue that dream on your behalf!”

"If you want to queue up by yourself, you only got it after waiting in line for two boys." Waimei shook the book in her hand, "By the way, Sister Tang Ze said that she was very happy to see you again that time and she wanted to invite you over the weekend.

Let’s have a picnic in the countryside and say hello to you first. It’s been a year since we last met, and I feel that Sister Tang Ze is even more beautiful.”

"You are a movie fan and a book fan."

Gu Xing often visits Weird Bookstore. I am sure there is something specific about the Detective Agency. I often order a glass of iced Americano and spend the whole day hanging out.

"I have reported it long ago,"

Waimei touched the cover of "The Actor's Secret" heavily, "Whenever I don't have a chance, I'll take you on a picnic too."

On the first floor is a coffee-themed bookstore called "Kaitan". The owner is also Gu Xing Guangchuan, but the specific business operations are handed over to a handsome man named Chiyo Hasegawa.

"Thank you Chiyo-san, he is the worst to you!" Waimei said with a smile.

"You are so busy that you don't have time to write a big story?"

Waimei called Chiyo over, "Sister Chiyo, does he want to go? You said you can't invite a bad friend to the picnic party organized by Karasawa Makoto."

Waimei deliberately showed a look of disdain, "Today you passed by the Tsutaya Bookstore far away and found this bad guy. After asking around, I found out that Karasawa Makoto was signing books here."

"Love is bad. All you true fans know that you have always hated watching Keigo Higashino's reasoning. He is really a fake fan."

"That's it,"

"She's beautiful outside. Wait a minute."

She continued walking back.

As of now, the first chapter has been subscribed 7,220 times, and the total subscriptions have reached 1,930. Thank you all book friends for your support. Book friends who are following the update should turn the page forward and give Gu Xing a thumbs up! "So I am using you as a guinea pig!"

Gu Xing tapped the table with his index finger, "They are going to have a picnic."

The moment I walked out of the bookstore, the sun was shining brightly on my face, which was clean and refreshing.

"By the way," Waimei looked outside the bookstore, "Has your little one come to the bookstore today?"

"How did you feel before eating it? Don't forget to give you feedback."

"Oh," Gu Xing picked up the book again, "Go ahead, eat a little more bitterly, don't hold on."

After leaving Kaidan Bookstore, Somi found a copy of "Snow Country" by Kawabata Yasunari from under the bookshelf and sat quietly outside the corner. Chiyo brought a copy of "Snow Country" to Somi, and you said thank you.

"Meeting in real life," Waimei said, "is it the same as watching movies and TV shows? Furthermore, before he added you as a bad friend, did he chat with you offline?"

"Right,"
