Chapter 60 4.16 The Mysterious Perfume Factory

As soon as Lin Xiaomei walked to the newspaper shelf, a new newspaper fell into the mailbox.

She simply hugged the new newspaper and the old newspaper in her arms.

The thin body is holding a stack of thick newspapers, just revealing two eyes.

Ye Man hurriedly cleared the table, Lin Xiaomei leaned over, and the table was piled up with newspapers.

They rearranged the newspaper according to time, and then began to read the information on it.

"The latest urban legend? Mysterious old man?" Lin Xiaomei opened the latest newspaper and read with a frown, "Recently, many people claim to have seen a mysterious old man with a walking stick as his attacking weapon. The noble child who came home... is elusive and powerful..."

Ye Man: "...Why don't you read another news..."

She respects the old and loves the young, how could she hit a child with a cane?

Lin Xiaomei acted as if she didn't hear it, and she read more and more vigorously: "It is said that the mysterious old man is afraid of water, so he never takes a bath, and he is also afraid of people who take a bath. So children must take a bath every day..."

Ye Man: "..."

She is such an elegant gentleman, why doesn't she take a bath?
"It must be your swimming style yesterday that left a deep impression on the audience." Lin Xiaomei slowly closed the newspaper, "I remember you can swim? How did you come up with that twitching swimming style?"

Ye Man sighed: "It's very simple. I can swim, but I can't dive..."

Lin Xiaomei, who can't swim at all, was full of question marks.

"So I can only try various postures, otherwise I will float automatically..." Ye Man spread his hands, "I can only say that I am not very good at water."

Lin Xiaomei who could never float in the swimming pool: "..."

The two continued to read the newspaper, and took out a pen and paper to draw circles and record.

Lin Xiaomei flicked through the newspaper, constantly sorting out the records.

Ye Man put down the newspaper and asked with great interest, "Is there anything worth noting?"

"The dispute between these two perfume factories is really strange."

"What kind of strange method?"

"Look at this report." Lin Xiaomei took out a newspaper and pointed to an article on it, "This article records in detail the analysis of the bizarre resumes of two perfume factories. It is said that Opfon & Co has been in business for ten years. And Opfon himself is also very talented. Their perfume was once rated by his fans as quite artistic, without a strong industrial atmosphere."

"But?" Ye Man always felt that there should be a "but".

"However, about a year ago, Grouse perfume suddenly rose rapidly. In less than a year, more than ten bottles of perfume were launched. Not only the fragrance is delicious, but also it can make people feel like they are in a fairyland."

"In a fairyland?" Ye Man thought, no matter what era the media is, it's exaggerated.

"I think, maybe I'm really in a fairyland." Lin Xiaomei took out another newspaper, "Here are some user reviews."

Ye Man took it, only to see that it was full of unbelievable comments.

"This 'Natural Spirit', the moment you smell it, you can hear the jingle of spring water, the music of the harp and the singing of fairies."

"I like 'Breath of Golden Autumn' the most. As soon as I spray it, there is a cold breath rushing towards my face, and it will feel cool even in midsummer."

"It's not as good as 'Snow Country Wonderland'. After I sprayed it on, I saw a snowy field, with heavy snow falling all over the sky. Sitting in the middle of the snowy field, I felt unprecedented loneliness and emptiness..."

……

"Great detective, college bully, you come to comment and comment?"

"Well..." Ye Man decided not to disgrace the title of "Scholar", "These comments, without exception, all use rhetorical techniques of synaesthesia..."

Obviously it's a smell, some heard it, some saw it, some felt it...

"Does this mean that the reporter has a high level of education?" Lin Xiaomei asked, "Have you edited all the comments?"

"According to the logic, it is so, but it is a pity that the neighbors of another newspaper office also commented in the same way." Ye Man took out another newspaper from her side.

Different newspapers and different editors all describe perfume in the same rhetorical way.

"Are people in this city so flamboyant?" Lin Xiaomei continued to speculate.

Ye Man shook his head: "Oupufang's perfume, the evaluation is much more normal. It smells good, or it doesn't smell good. At most, it looks like a work of art."

"Then why?"

Ye Man tilted his head and said, "What if they aren't using rhetoric?"

Lin Xiaomei opened her eyes wide: "You mean, all of this is..."

"Their true feelings." Ye Man smiled, "Don't forget, this is a world of people with superpowers."

After she finished speaking, she drew a wavy line on "less than a year" to express emphasis, and she already had a candidate for the suspect in her heart.
-
Dinner is held at the city's most prestigious restaurant.

Downstairs of the restaurant is the opera house, and the singing resounds throughout the building.

However, there are several built-in boxes upstairs for dining, which are very cleverly designed.

In the box, the sound of the opera does not overwhelm the guests, but appears just right as the background music. At the same time, the conversation during the period will be covered by the sound of the opera resounding outside, so that it cannot be eavesdropped from outside.

Therefore, even if the price is very high, it has become a dining place that the nobles like to order, which is both elegant and private.

In the dark green velvet box, when Mr. Yeager came with his beautiful and proud girlfriend, Mr. Opfon and Ms. Zwitter were already waiting inside.

While they were waiting, they couldn't help but find that this was the first time in the past year that they had rationally let go of their dizzy emotions.

In the past year, under the impact of the Gross Perfume Factory, the two of them had an outburst of emotion and competitiveness for a year, and they no longer remembered what their original intention was.

Two people, one was crazily jealous of Gross's talent and lost his original intention of creating perfume, and the other kept getting angry because Gross took away the market and drove away many employees.

After that, they deviated from the direction, and actually tried to win by quantity and regain the market.

Who knows that haste makes waste.

They became the laughing stock of the industry and the whole city when they created their nose-piercing perfume, and they paid the price.

At this time, they, after the catastrophe, finally recalled their original aspirations, and no longer wanted to compare and compete.

The two were willing to pay a high price in order to thank Mr. Yeager and Miss Linton.

"Today we invited you two to thank you for what happened last time." Mr. Opfon was full of emotion, "Thanks to you, we survived."

"If that's the case," the old man Yege cut straight to the point and was not polite, "then I'm sure you two won't refuse some of our curious questions."

"Well, I know everything." Mr. Opfon was very straightforward, and Ms. Zwitter nodded happily.
