The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 581 The Day of the Cycle (9)

Chapter 581 The Day of Reincarnation ([-])
In the booth of the street cafe, a middle-aged woman in a dark green coat is sitting here alone.

In front of her, there were two clean white porcelain plates. On one plate was a small coffee cup, and on the other plate were two small and exquisite cakes.

In the coffee cup, the deep-colored, hot freshly ground coffee is exuding a strong aroma of coffee beans.

Lin Shu tried to use the thumb and index finger of her right hand to pinch the handle of the coffee cup, which was too small, and then took it to her mouth and took a small sip.

This sip has to be a sip.

Because she was afraid that if she applied a little more force, she would accidentally drink the entire cup of coffee.

After taking a sip of the coffee, a mellow and bitter cocoa flavor suddenly filled her mouth.

In order to alleviate the taste of coffee in her mouth, Lin Shu picked up the dessert fork on the table and poked a small piece of cherry blossom-shaped crystal clear Maca cake into her mouth.

At the moment when the cake melted in the mouth, Lin Shu felt what a real dessert is.

That kind of sweetness is not the daily sweetness that ordinary people usually eat, but the kind of super sweetness that is so sweet and so sweet, the kind of unparalleled sweetness that can rush all the way from the taste buds to the sky.

Lin Shu, who finished eating this dessert, silently put down the dessert fork in her hand.

She felt that someone had just dropped a spoonful of white sugar that had been condensed by an unknown number of times on her tongue.

Under the impact of the sweet aftertaste, she picked up the small coffee cup and took a small sip of coffee.

Interestingly, when she eats coffee and desserts together, the flavors between the two ingredients achieve a taste complementarity, which gives her an unprecedented new flavor in the interweaving of bitter and sweet flavors. experience.

Even so, this afternoon tea lasted for her for more than half an hour.

But Lin Shu didn't know that her eating speed already belonged to the fast group of guests.

Many elderly people in Ba City will come to the booth outside the coffee shop in the afternoon, order a cup of coffee and a few desserts, and then sit there all afternoon.

But that will have to wait until the weather is nice.

Whenever the sun is shining, the terrace seats of various cafes along the street will be full of customers.

It's raining this morning, so it's obviously not suitable for dining on the terrace.

Thinking that the two stalkers not far away should still be there, Lin Shu, who was not in a hurry to go back to the hotel, picked up a free newspaper on the dining table and read it.

This newspaper was just printed at noon, and on the front page was a vicious case of murder and robbery by a masked woman.

This headline immediately attracted Lin Shu's attention.

So she began to stare carefully at the face of the woman wearing a headscarf printed on the cover of the newspaper.

Although this newspaper is black and white, it still clearly shows the face of the person under the camera who committed the crime and was arrested due to the sufficient amount of ink printed.

Through the other person's exposed eyes, Lin Shu recognized this woman.

The other party was the strange woman who tried to stab her with a knife when she went out on the first day.

According to newspaper reports, this woman from an ethnic minority seemed to have taken to the streets with a knife to commit murder under the instructions of her husband.

The perpetrator's original intention was probably to beg for help from wealthy people passing by.

But the victim she blocked refused her request.

This approach may have angered the perpetrator, and she impulsively took out the knife on her body and stabbed the victim in the stomach.

Fortunately, the owner and fellows of a bakery on the street witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

They stepped forward in time to stop the perpetrator from further committing crimes and immediately sent the victim to the hospital for treatment, thus preventing more serious consequences.

At present, the perpetrator and her husband, who is also a minority, have been taken away by police officers for investigation.

At the end of the report, the reporter of this report sharply pointed out that there are many criminal activities caused by ethnic minorities in the city in a seemingly fair and objective language, and the city government should investigate these social incidents. Responsible and so on.

After reading the report, Lin Shu briefly flipped through several pages of other pages of the newspaper.

The sports, culture, and gossip news didn't attract her interest.

Lin Shu immediately put down the newspaper in her hand, and at this moment, she realized that at a table directly opposite her, a white mother and daughter were peeping at her and discussing something in a low voice.

When the two people saw Lin Shu looking up at them, they immediately turned their heads back pretending to be nonchalant.

However, Lin Shu could still clearly hear the two people whispering about "foreigners" and the like.

Yes, in this city of millions of people, in addition to the local white people born and raised, there are also many people like her who are foreigners with yellow skin and dark eyes, or who belong to the perpetrators like the one published in the newspaper just now. of ethnic minorities.

The complexion of the latter is closer to khaki, or pure black.

In this big city, people can roughly judge a person's place of birth only by the skin color, the color of the pupils, and the appearance composed of five sense organs.

Although the laws and regulations of Baba City stipulate that all races of different skin colors are equal, all citizens enjoy the same equal treatment.

But in Lin Shu's view, it is precisely because of the unequal treatment in reality that there are laws to protect the equal rights of foreigners and ethnic minorities in the form of clear provisions.

It's like any of those gender-unequal mission worlds she's been in.

It is precisely because of unequal oppression in reality that some people choose to stand up and shout out to defend their rights and interests.

It has been said since ancient times that one does not suffer from scarcity but inequality, and one does not suffer from poverty but anxiety.

The "average" here does not mean average, because judging from the many worlds she has experienced, in any world where people have desires, there will never be absolute average, especially average wealth.

If in a human society, everyone has the same income, same expenses, same behavior pattern, and same cognitive concept... Such a society may be as calm as a pool of stagnant water, and lose its vitality from then on.

Therefore, in her opinion, the "equal" here should refer to equal rights and interests, or various social systems that can protect the rights and interests of everyone should be reasonable.

In this way, Lin Shu felt that she had further understood why fur sweater, who was a foreigner in this world, had to be so proactive in serving the real elite even though she was notorious from the common people.

Perhaps, deep in the other person's heart, there is a great ambition that even she has never thought of.

Perhaps, if you want to change some status quo, you must first enter certain circles, but behind this choice, there must be hidden hardships and perseverance that ordinary people can't imagine.

At this time, the white mother and daughter at the next table were still chattering about foreigners.

Lin Shu, who chose to ignore the two, took out the wallet in her bag and put the meal fee and tip on a clean white porcelain plate.

Then she stood up and left the coffee shop.

The voices of the two white men who saw Lin Shu walking away also raised their voices.

The middle-aged woman who was the mother grumbled rather unhappily, "These foreigners are all wearing expensive clothes and carrying expensive luxury leather bags. I really don't know where they earned so much money...that's terrible. It's all paid by us taxpayers!"

The younger daughter also echoed her mother's words and replied, "When these people get older, they will increase the burden on our country's medical insurance system. Especially the ethnic minorities in my school, just think about this." If people come to compete with me for my job in the future, I will be annoyed to death..."

"There are also those preferential policies issued by the government to ethnic minorities. That is not promoting equality at all, but oppressing us native-born people. This is a new kind of inequality!"

Hearing the mother here, she quickly reached out and patted the back of her daughter's hand, comforting the latter and saying, "My dear daughter, you must study hard at school, so that you can squeeze out these foreigners in the future!"

The young girl smiled confidently and disdainfully, "Don't worry, there are not many people in school who are willing to cooperate with those foreigners and ethnic minorities who like to cheat..."

Lin Shu, who walked into the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, could no longer hear the mother and daughter's discussion.

When she passed the front desk, she managed to see the two men in black who were crossing the road towards the hotel by using the angle of reflection on the smooth mirror surface of the counter.

It seemed that they were planning to follow her into the hotel.

Lin Shu became suspicious. If the two of them had some means to enter this hotel, or even know her room number, wouldn't they also know about her activities and the privacy of her life these days?

What's more, it's not the first time these two people have followed her today.

So is the hotel where she lives now safe?
At this time, a male receptionist standing behind the service desk saw Lin Shu come and stand in front of him, he smiled and said, "Ms. Qiu, welcome back to our shop, what do you need?"

"Hello, I would like to meet the owner of your hotel. I wonder if he is free now?"

The young receptionist was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Shu's words.

He came to this hotel to work as the front desk for two or three years, but it was the first time he met a resident who asked for an appointment with the boss.

"Madam, are you dissatisfied with our rooms or services? If you have any questions in these areas, you can give us feedback directly..."

"No, I'm looking for your boss to ask about some personal matters."

Lin Shu's concise answer interrupted the male receptionist's next words.

After hearing this, the latter looked confused for a while, then picked up the phone at his hand and made an internal call.

After he hung up the call, he looked at Lin Shu and replied, "Ms. Qiu, our boss said that he is free now and can meet you in the public reception room in the lobby. Please come with me."

Lin Shu nodded, "Okay, then I will trouble you to lead the way."
