The King of the City

"Hehe, it seems that Mr. Lin still remembers my voice." The woman over the phone said, "Mr. Lin, we recently saw you published a new book called "Breaking the Sky", we saw you I have a great intention to publish your work, when are you free, let’s sit down and talk about the publication of the second book?”

It is good to have money to make money, and then Lin Chen said that the publishing method of "Breaking the Sky" is still divided into royalties. The more you sell, the more you get.

Half an hour later, Lin Chen stepped into this publishing house for the second time, and authorized the physical publishing rights of "Breaking the Sky" to this publishing office.

The first money for publishing royalties for "Covering the Sky" has been credited to Lin Chen's account.

Leaving from the publishing house, and driving the car on the way to the company, Lin Chen calculated how much money he had left.

After careful calculation, the funds on hand are still (bhbh) enough for the operation of the entire company.

It is also that Lin Chen wants to maintain the user experience now. Penguin Chat does not have any advertisements. Otherwise, if advertisements are added to the software, with the current number of users, it will also be a good income.

In the next few days, Lin Chen lived a very leisurely life. He went to the company to sit and supervise the development of new software functions and the development and production of the mobile game "Honor of Kings".

On Saturday, Xia Miaoyan's little girl came from the school early, and now Xia Miaoyan also has a key to Lin Chen's residence.

Of course, she took Lin Chen's key and ran to get one by herself.

Arriving at Lin Chen's house, Xia Miaoyan first diligently cleaned up the house for Lin Chen, and then went to the vegetable market to buy a lot of Lin Chen's favorite dishes, and was busy in the kitchen.

At [-]:[-] noon, all the meals were cooked, and Xia Miaoyan shouted to the upstairs: "Master, come down quickly, you can eat."

Hearing the voice, Lin Chen came downstairs, Xia Miaoyan pointed at the dishes on a table, and asked proudly, "How is it, master, what you cook today is what you like."

Lin Chen glanced at the dishes on the table, nodded, and praised Xia Miaoyan. When the two were about to wash their hands and eat, suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"I'll open the door." Xia Miaoyan immediately walked towards the door, came to the door, opened the door, and found Zhang Tian'an standing outside.

Seeing each other, the two women had some surprises in their eyes.

"Sister Tianan, you're here." Xia Miaoyan called out and let Zhang Tianan into the room.

"Yes, I have something to say to Lin Chen." Zhang Tianni said.

Hearing that Zhang Tiannan had something to do with him, Lin Chen put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked, "What's the matter with me?"

Zhang Tian'an didn't answer Lin Chen, she smelled the fragrant dishes on the table, and her eyes showed surprise: "It's so fragrant, Miaoyan, did you make these?"

"Yes, Sister Tianan, have you eaten? If not, just eat together." Xia Miaoyan said with a smile.

Zhang Tianai said, "I just didn't eat, so I'm going to wash my hands."

At Lin Chen's place, Zhang Tian'an was not ashamed. After washing his hands, the three of them sat around the dining table.

Zhang Tiannan doesn't know how to cook, and the fried dishes are not delicious every time. After tasting Xia Miaoyan's craftsmanship, she is full of praise for Xia Miaoyan.

When it was almost time to eat, Zhang Tianan looked at Lin Chen and said, "I came here today, and I have two things to tell you."

"Say." Lin Chen took a sip of the drink and said lightly.

Xia Miaoyan looked at Zhang Tian'an curiously, and under Xia Miaoyan's gaze, Zhang Tian'an said, "I've been thinking about whether or not to move to your place recently, um... I've already thought about it now. Now, as soon as my rent expires, I'll move in."

"what!"

Lin Chen didn't say anything yet, but Xia Miaoyan's reaction was very big. She opened her beautiful eyes and said, "Sister Tian Nui, you... Are you going to move in and live with the master?"

Xia Miaoyan's reaction made Zhang Tiannan stunned for a moment, she thought that Xia Miaoyan felt that it was not good for her to live with Lin Chen alone, so she said, "Yes, the landlord of the house I rented before did not Let's rent it, and I can't find any suitable house around, it just happens that Lin Chen has a lot of vacant rooms here, so I'll move here and live here, it's also close to the Public Security Bureau."

Xia Miaoyan's originally happy face became a little cloudy, she forced a smile and said, "Oh, that's it..."

After saying this, Xia Miaoyan lowered her head and stopped talking.

Lin Chen didn't care about Xia Miaoyan's reaction, he looked at Zhang Tian'an and said, "What about the second thing?"

When talking about the second thing, Zhang Tianan put away the smile on his face and said, "The second thing is that I am going on a business trip with my colleagues from the serious crime team in the past two days. In Guangyu County, there are some The case needs assistance in the investigation."

"Guangyu County? Is there a case that needs to be investigated?" Lin Chen repeated.

"Yeah." Zhang Tianan said, "This is also the main purpose of my coming to you today. Deputy Bureau Sun asked me to ask you if you are interested in participating in the murder case involving humanoid patterns in Guangyu County."

Lin Chen stuffed a large piece of pork belly into his mouth, and said slowly, "Let's hear it.".

154 Introduction to the case 【Subscription】

Xia Miaoyan on the side was also aroused by the words 'humanoid pattern murder case'.

She asked, "Sister Tian Nui, what is the murder case with a humanoid pattern?"

Zhang Tianai said: "Some time ago, on the playground of Guangyu No. [-] Middle School in Guangyu County, a humanoid pattern appeared. The humanoid pattern was drawn with red chalk."

"When the pattern first appeared, no one cared. It was erased by students walking around. After the pattern disappeared, a few days later, the same chalk-drawn humanoid pattern appeared in the same place."

"No one cared this time. As a result, two days later, at the location where the humanoid pattern appeared, a murdered male student was found."

"The male student was attacked with a blunt weapon on the head, his skull was smashed, and cracks and blood holes appeared. On the cracked head, the forensic doctor found that the murderer had moved with his hands."

"Hey..." Hearing this, Xia Miaoyan frowned and made an "hey", saying, "The murderer smashed the human skull and wanted to break it apart with his hands. What is he doing this for? It's a human head, not a walnut."

Zhang Tian'an shook his head and said, "We don't know what the murderer's purpose was to break open the deceased's head. The first deceased, the place where he died, the posture in which he fell to the ground, and the humanoid pattern that appeared twice before, Exactly the same."

"The humanoid pattern that appeared twice on the ground seems to be a notice to the school people. As long as the humanoid pattern appears, someone will die in the place where the humanoid pattern is located."

Zhang Tianan said, opened the briefcase he was carrying, and handed some photos of the scene to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen put down his chopsticks, took these photos, and looked at them one by one.

The first photo is of a human figure that appeared on the concrete floor next to the basketball hoop in the playground. It was drawn with red chalk. The figure's hands were open, one foot was straight and the other was bent.
