Spy Family

Chapter 39 An unexpected smile

The restaurant chosen by Mei Qianzhong is not far from the Destiny Street. It is neither luxurious nor simple. There are high wooden boards between the dining tables, which provides better privacy. The dishes are also more popular, so it is suitable for young lovers. Quite attractive.

He also wanted to dress up Lu Linbei, but after being rejected, he felt regretful, A spy requires a variety of skills. Not only are you lame, but you are severely lame, which will affect your future.

I will only carry out such a mission once. Lu Linbei already felt something was wrong before he even set off.

It's up to you, but you must find out the details of this woman.

Why not just go to Future Whip? Even if she is really a spy - I don't think so - getting rid of her will be of no use.

Because I'm not in the Emergency Department, and there are only three of us at our disposal, and we don't even have a gun. Wouldn't it be like throwing yourself into a trap by looking for the Future Whip? This is just a beating. It's best to lead out the mastermind behind the scenes and bring him into the trap. Get rid of it. Without a leader, Future Whip is a simple extremist organization that poses no fatal threat to me or us.

Okay, but when you have a detailed plan...

We will definitely discuss it with you. The three of us will discuss it together. Now it seems that the response to the emergency department is far away. We have to find our own way and seek our own protection. And - Mei Qianzhong showed his iconic smile, You I need a love, really, I hope there is nothing wrong with that female fortune teller, you two are a perfect match.

Lu Linbei couldn't think of any good match between him and the female fortune teller. To me, this is a mission and I am doing you a favor.

Of course, you did me a big favor. Mei Qianzhong showed no intention of putting away his smile.

I really need a love, please give me an idea. Lu Yezhou interjected.

Your problem is easy to solve. Just go out and run a few kilometers.

It was five minutes before seven o'clock, and Lu Linbei arrived at Chen Manchi's shop. The lights were on, but there was no one there. He pushed the door open and waited silently, thinking: When the guests enter the house, the fortune teller will leave from the inner room. Come out, this is probably one of the tricks to create mystery.

At seven o'clock sharp, Chen Manchi showed up and changed into a long skirt. The color and pattern were slightly different, but the style was still the same. It was slightly looser and longer than the ankle, with only a small upper part of the shoe exposed. She was taller and wore It's flat shoes.

Her biggest change was that she tied her fluffy long hair behind her back. It turned out that her head was not that big, just normal. However, this way, it did lose a bit of mystery.

You are very punctual. Chen Manchi's tone of voice has not changed, it is still slow and a little distant, as if he is talking to someone only she can see.

Please. Lu Linbei regretted not listening to Mei Qianzhong's arrangement. He should indeed bring a bouquet of flowers, not to please the other party, but because he had something to say, such as I hope you like it, I don't know. It's not your color type, it won't be like now where I don't even know what to say in the second word.

The two of them went out and merged into the pedestrians on the street. They were not far or close to each other. Lu Linbei finally came up with a sentence, Don't you lock the door?

Someone is looking after the store for me. Chen slowly took two steps before answering.

Oh. Business will be better at night. There will be more people shopping after dark.

Not much has changed. People who come here to tell fortunes usually don't like to get together.

Right.

The two of them had nothing to say again.

A seat has been reserved in the store, and the two of them can sit directly and avoid the queue. Lu Linbei has to admit that Mei Qianzhong's experience is indeed useful. It is a very honorable thing to bypass the crowd and go straight into the restaurant. .

Even if Chen Manchi had a good impression, he didn't show it.

The two of them ordered their meals separately and waited for the automatic system to serve them. They looked at each other without saying anything.

Lu Linbei couldn't help but laugh.

Why are you laughing? Chen Manchi waited for the other person's smile to disappear before asking.

The whole thing is ridiculous. Lu Linbei couldn't stand it anymore.

I accepted the invitation before you asked, so that's ridiculous?

There was a misunderstanding on the other side, and Lu Linbei said hurriedly: No, no, I didn't mean that, I meant... why did you... choose me when the three of us went there for the first time?

Chen Manchi seemed to not want to answer, but in fact it was just her usual thinking - if she was really thinking about something, Because you look the most honest and have little experience, unlike the other two, my words are likely to be used by them. Come to make fun of me, and you take it seriously, just more seriously than I expected, so why are you running away?”

I...have other reasons, it's not your fault.

Another woman? Can't love her?

Are you a fortune teller or a psychiatrist?

Are there any strict differences between the two professions?

Lu Linbei wanted to say yes, but he held it back in time, because next he would probably explain the obvious differences between the two seriously from a disciplinary perspective, which would make the topic boring again.

It's about another woman, but it has nothing to do with love. Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble by talking like this?

What trouble?

I believe this is not the first time you have said that to a guest. What if someone takes it seriously and stalks you?

Chen Manchi thought for a longer time this time, as if she was wondering whether to admit that she had used the same trick on others. Finally, she said: Like you? Three times?

That's not a stalker, it's more extreme.

Well... it happens occasionally, but I have a way. I will say: fate makes you fall in love with me, but fate does not let us be together. You have a broader future, but I am destined to be trapped in the present.

The bifurcation of fate. Lu Linbei thought of this sentence.

Suddenly, Chen Manchi raised his hand to cover his mouth, smiled, and immediately put his hand down. There was no trace of a smile on his face. He was still as lazy as usual when he spoke, Yes, if you follow me, you will be mediocre, and if you leave me, you will be extraordinary. So far, everything has Everyone chose the latter path, so they never got into trouble.”

If it doesn't work, you can call the police.

Chen Manchi tilted his head and refused to judge.

Lu Linbei looked at her carefully and felt that the smile just now seemed to reveal some secret.

The food arrived without his gaze becoming too impolite.

The meat dishes are real ingredients, but the taste is very ordinary, not worthy of the price and the crowd queuing outside.

Chen Manchi also eats very slowly. He only takes a small mouthful at a time and chews many times before swallowing. He also doesn't speak. He only answers a few words when there is no food in his mouth.

The silence was no longer awkward, and Lu Linbei didn't have to look for words. He concentrated on eating the food on the plate, thinking about how to say goodbye later without being rude.

Chen slowly finished eating, wiped his mouth carefully with a tissue, and said, Thank you for the invitation.

Thank you even more for agreeing.

The atmosphere became a little strange again, as both of them seemed to be expecting the other to speak first and end this dead-end date.

Can you afford the food prices here? Chen Chichi asked a pointed question.

Lu Linbei smiled and shook his head, My friend chose this store for me, and he also paid for it.

The tallest one.

Yes. Lu Linbei waited, thinking that she would use this conversation to continue the conversation and inquire about Mei Qianzhong's situation. In that case, she might be a spy of Future Whip.

But she didn't, but said, Would you like to go for a walk? Take a breather.

good.

It was the busiest time of the day, and the streets were more crowded than the shops. Chen Manchi was familiar with the neighborhood, so he took Lu Linbei to the river and walked along the embankment.

Where are you from? Are you Zhao Wangxing? Lu Linbei always had to ask for something so he could go back and do business.

I was born in King Zhao. I have traveled to many places over the years. I stayed in King Zhao for a year and learned fortune-telling.

The situation is basically consistent with what Lu Yezhou found out.

Are you good at cards?

I can read palms, talk about astrology, and communicate with divination, but I can't do anything else.

Is business easy?

It's not bad. Occasionally, if I meet a particularly generous customer, I can make a lot of money and go to another planet.

Do you like traveling?

I don't like it. The scenery is often in vain. Seeing it in person is not as good as the video. I just like to leave one place and go to another place.

What does this feel like?

“If you don’t feel like you belong anywhere, staying on the road is a good option.”

Lu Linbei was suddenly moved by these words, and after a while he said, So you are also an interstellar orphan?

uh-huh.

How many planets have you visited?

Six, there is still one planet left, but there will be an eighth planet for me to go to soon.

Eight planets don't seem to be enough for you to travel.

Maybe more new planets will appear. Moreover, the guests on King Zhai are not generous enough. It will be difficult for me to save enough money to leave here.

Fate has other plans for you.

Chen slowly covered her mouth and smiled again. This was obviously a subconscious action, but she immediately turned her head to cover it up, Maybe, my own destiny is the hardest to see through.

Lu Linbei suddenly had an idea, Are you a newbie?

Huh? Chen slowly looked over.

You have been a fortune teller for only a short time. Your dress and the way you speak are all disguises. In fact, you have never told fortunes for a few people, nor have you met any customers who are stalking you, nor are you generous enough to provide boat tickets. guests.

A flash of anger flashed in Chen Manchi's eyes, which destroyed the indifference and mystery she deliberately created, but instead made her look much younger.

Lu Linbei guessed that she was probably only in her early twenties, so she became even more confident in his judgment.

You, how could you do this? Chen Manchi even changed his tone of voice.

So I'm right. Lu Linbei took a step back. After a moment of pride, he realized a problem. If Mei Qianzhong's guess was correct, then he needed to deal with the female spy as soon as possible.

There was a river next to it, and the thought made him extremely uncomfortable.

I wanted to give you another chance.

No need. Lu Linbei's voice was cold, Future Whip looks down on Mei's family too much, or it just doesn't take you seriously and doesn't care about your life or death.

After being exposed, the expression on Chen Manchi's face became much more vivid, and doubts immediately flashed across his face, Future Whip? Who do you think I am?

You know it yourself. Lu Linbei looked around. It was very quiet here, and there were only pedestrians walking in the distance. So he took another step forward and reached out to grab Chen Manchi's arm. He didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to give her a little threaten.

Chen slowly shook his arm, but without shaking it off, his expression turned cold again, It seems you have to make it clear.

Yes, you'd better cooperate.

Your name is Lu Linbei, a son of Yuanfa Farm. You work as an investigator in the Emergency Department of the General Meteorological Administration. You are actually a spy, right?

Lu Linbei's heart tightened and he held his hands tighter.

I am an investigator from First Light Industry Group. Team Leader Guan sent me to contact you.

Guan Zhuqian? Lu Linbei suddenly remembered the woman who interrogated him on the spaceship, and his doubts only increased.
