A few people followed Yilu to a shop near the sea. It was indeed very corner, almost bordering the residential area of ​​the Seventh Ring Road. Almost no one would notice that there was a coffee shop here.

"Ring Ling Ling ~"

When the wooden door was pushed open, there was a pleasant wind chime, and what came into view was a wooden shelf filled with blooming flowers.

After entering the coffee shop, the colors become bright and cheerful, and you can feel the coffee shop owner's love for life.

"Hey, welcome."

Linette, who was lazily leaning on the recliner and reading the novel, seemed a little surprised. After all, there were very few guests at noon, and the place was so remote that no one would come for a few days.

"Eh--?!"

Yilu opened her eyes wide, as if she couldn't believe it, "Miss Linette? Is that Miss Linette!"

Linnet shrank her head in shock from Ilu's exaggerated enthusiasm, and muttered, "I'm not a monster, so I shouldn't make such a fuss."

Immediately, she saw Han Chen again, the corners of her eyes twitched slightly. Isn't this the boy she met in the store this morning?

At this time, Han Chen's inner thoughts were very simple, that is, Fontaine Court is really small... For some reason, he had a hunch that the strange thief was also related to these two people.

Well, don't ask, it's the protagonist's intuition.

"Guys, would you like something to drink?"

Linney, dressed in a smart little dress, walked from the back room to the counter.

Yilu is like a little girl who has been slapped in the face by an idol, she is about to pass out from happiness, probably Yicheng has already guessed the embarrassment of her old sister, so she didn't say it.

"Hey, it's Yicheng's sister, we often hear him mention you."

Lin Ni smiled slightly. In fact, he not only listened to it often, but also said it every time. Sister-in-law is really scary. Fortunately, he is not.

The main reason is that my old sister is so lazy that she loses her idol filter every day, which is amazing.

Lin Ni insisted on living like his father, and it was hard not to cry.

Yilu blinked her eyes, a little surprised, can her brother with facial paralysis still chat?

"In this case, let's put on the four cups of signs."

Yilu said with a smile, after all, she doesn't understand coffee at all, and she just uses the coffee beans Yicheng brought back every time.

Linney nodded to show that he understood, and immediately began to grind beans on the counter.

Keqing stood aside and watched curiously. After all, there are still very few people drinking coffee in Liyue, and most of them drink tea.

"Look at your attire, you're not a local, have you ever seen an opera at the Esdell Theater?"

Lin Ni chatted very familiarly, without social fear at all.

"Liyue people, I just went to see your opera this morning, it was very good."

Ke Qing said appreciatively, she would probably go back and watch it a few times if she had the chance.

Linney looked very happy. After all, it is something to be happy to bring smiles to others. "We hope to bring more vitality to Fontaine."

Now the Fontaine Court is a little lifeless, everything is in order, and even surprises are rare in life.

On the other side, Linette was holding the book "I and the Emperor of the Rock Slashed the Eight Wilds Together in the Era of the Demon God". Han Chen discovered this book in the store because he saw the familiar cover.

However, this batch of light novels just arrived these days, and they have been released for almost two years. The reason why they can be exported to Fontaine is because the commercial trade with Liyue has become more intensive recently.

Chapter 216 You Haven't Read Teacher Ling Xiao's Works at All, You Don't Know Light Novels

Linette felt Han Chen's gaze, and then she came to her senses. She put her face in front of him and asked word by word, "Don't you know me?"

Han Chen: "?"

I didn't know it before, but I do now.

Speaking of which... Han Chen coughed lightly, and asked calmly, "Don't you know me?"

"Clam?"

Linette blinked her eyes, and she was stupefied in capital letters. What is this person talking about? Does Linette need to meet someone specially?

Paimeng on the side silently covered his face, thinking that this is too shameful, how did Han Chen keep his face and pretend to be aggressive!

Is this the necessary element to become the protagonist of a novel!

Han Chen pointed to the light novel in Linette's hand, coughed lightly, and read: "Thousands of years ago, Liyue was in chaos, and I and the immortals swept all directions."

"Leaving Tianheng in the south, entering Yaoguang in the east, ascending Juyun in the west, and visiting the light policy in the north; the land is depressed, the people are dying, and the glass moon is so vast that it is difficult to accommodate a single place of peace."

Linette: "???"

She was still very confused at first, but the more she listened to it, the more strange it became. Why is this style of writing so familiar.

Linette picked up the light novel in her hands, and flipped through the entire book but couldn't find the same sentence.

"Of course you can't find it. That's the content of the second volume."

Han Chen said in a serious manner, this wave of people has done a great job.

Linette looked at the first volume in her hand with some grievances, where?What should I do if I was dumped by the spoiler after reading half of the first volume?

"You, how do you remember so clearly?"

Linette raised her face, her cat ears twitched, "Are you also a loyal fan of Teacher Ling Xiao?"

She suddenly had the illusion that she had found someone with whom she was interested. After all, her younger brother was not good at anything. He was either coding or making coffee every day. When watching exciting plots, he didn't even have anyone to share his feelings with.

Is there anything more painful than this?

Linette wanted to strangle Linney by the neck to preach to him, but in the end she had to let him go every time because of breakfast...

The corners of Han Chen's mouth twitched slightly, wanting to laugh.

"I can only say that I have never read Teacher Ling Xiao's book, and the writing is not very good."

Ke Qing, who was chatting with Lin Ni at the counter, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. Han Chen was teasing people again, he was so dark-hearted, and he liked it very much.

Lin Ni blinked, always felt that Yu Hengxing in front of him looked like a girl who fell in love in a romance novel, this is really interesting material.

Go back and write it in the novel.

On the other side, Linette's eyebrows were raised upright, and the eyes of the ice element god on her chest flickered slightly. In her ears, what Han Chen said was almost equivalent to: Dogs don't even read Ling Xiao's light novels.

The cat-eared girl stood up abruptly, and glared at Han Chen fiercely, "Who do you think you are? You have never read Teacher Ling Xiao's works, you know nothing about light novels!"

The air suddenly became quiet, and in the end, Paimon couldn't hold back his laughter, and sniggered.

Ke Qing smiled helplessly: "Han Chen, stop bullying others like this."

Yilu was a little out of state, saying that she didn't figure out what happened.

"Well, let me introduce, he is Han Chen, and his pen name is Ling Xiao," Ke Qing calmly said the words that shocked Linette for 1 years.

Han Chen waved his hand kindly, "Hello, hello, I'm Xia Lingxiao."

If it was in the anime, Linette would probably have petrified special effects at this time. In reality, she just covered her face silently, and then ran into the back room without looking back, and she could faintly hear the sound of shameful whimpering .

"Uh, I just wanted to make a joke."

Han Chen looked at Lin Ni apologetically, but in the end he didn't care at all, and even smiled gloatingly, "It's okay, my old lady is still very strong in self-healing, I guess it's time to come out and ask for an autograph after the coffee is ready. .”

I have to admit that, as expected of being a real sibling, Lin Ni's estimate cannot be said to be wrong, it can only be said to be exactly the same.

When four cups of steaming coffee were brought to the table, Linette had already walked out with a blushing face.

"Are you really, Teacher Ling Xiao?"

Her eyes were wide open, nervously expecting.

Han Chen nodded, and took out a copy of "I want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus with wine" from his backpack. "This is the second part. I'm giving it to you."

"what--!"

The decibel of Linette's voice suddenly increased by three points, but as expected of an opera singer, even screaming is very pleasant, "Teacher Ling Xiao? Are you that Teacher Ling Xiao!"

The corners of Han Chen's eyes twitched slightly, a little afraid that Linette would rush over and smash him, "I'm not a monster, so I shouldn't make such a fuss."

"Ok?"

Ms. Yilu, who was sipping coffee silently, had a subtle sense of déjà vu, and always felt that a similar conversation happened not long ago.

My idol's idol is my friend?

Yilu is a little dizzy, it's a strange setting, but it feels so cool for no reason.

Lin Ni shrank his head, a little helpless, can't my old lady be reserved?

Linette tightly hugged the light novel in her arms, completely forgetting the previous shame, and sat on the reclining chair bouncing around.

The expression seemed to be on a pilgrimage, so sacred that one couldn't bear to be disturbed.

Han Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and took a sip of the coffee. The rich taste made people a little intoxicated, and Liyue didn't seem to have this kind of coffee beans.

Ke Qing quietly peeked at Linette's cat ears, a little curious, could this be the real cat's head?so cute!

The coffee shop fell into a comfortable silence, only the sound of Linette turning the pages of the book could be heard occasionally.

I have to say that if someone can take this scene, it must be a beautiful scene.

"Miss Keqing, is there any place you want to go next?"

Yilu drank the coffee in her hand, and did not forget her duty. At this time, Tina was not around, so she was the only one who could act as a guide.

"Well, let's go back to the hotel first, there is still a lot of time."

Ke Qing smiled slightly, the most important thing now is to sort out the information before deciding where to go to collect clues, it is definitely a bad idea to search for clues alone.

"Then let's go first, the coffee is delicious."

Yilu said goodbye to Linnilinette with a smile, opened the wooden door, and immediately saw Tina who was not looking well outside the door.

"Tina?"

Yilu blinked, she rarely saw Tina with such an expression.

"Your Highness has an order to find the strange thief within seven days."

Tina let out a little breath, feeling a little irritated. After all, the strange thief has been showing up for more than a month, let alone clues, not even a clue.

Where did she find it?

"Phantom thief?"

Han Chen pondered for a while and asked, "Have they not acted recently?"

Tina shook her head and said, "Since the Bi'anhai case, the patrols in Fontaine Court have increased a lot."

Chapter 217 Do Puppets Have Hearts?

Linette glanced at Linney and raised her beautiful eyebrows.

The corners of Lin Ni's eyes twitched slightly, thinking that you want to surrender yourself, why?

The figures of Tina and Yilu gradually faded away outside the door, Han Chen and Ke Qing also left the coffee shop after saying goodbye, and the small shop became quiet again.

Lin Ni calmly took a sip of his coffee, and then sighed, "You can see that, even our Highness can't stand it, so he wants to clean us up."

That is the god of Fontaine, and in a sense it is considered an honor, after all, not everyone is eligible to be wanted by the gods.

It can only be said that it is hard work.

"So what, we have reached this point, do you want to give up?"

Linette looked at the fluorescent bottle hanging by the wall, which was filled with glowing blue sea water, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"give up......"

Lin Ni smiled slightly, and said softly, "Sister, there is no turning back for us a long time ago."

"Yes."

Linette showed a bit of a bitter smile, there are only ten days left, what will Fontaine look like by then?

"At least, we can continue to complete our performance."

outside the store.

"Han Chen, why don't you leave?"
