Secret War Silent

"Kappa" is actually a water ghost. In Japan, it is a monster with the beak of a bird, the limbs of a frog, the body of a monkey and the shell of a turtle.

The spy team chose such a name, which obviously has a certain meaning. The beak of the bird is very sharp, which shows that it is very aggressive. Frogs and monkeys are very flexible animals. Frogs can swim in water, and monkeys can swim in the mountains Among them, it shows that it has a strong ability to survive. As for the tortoise, it is better explained.

The water ghost is a frightening creature in legends. With such a name, it also gives itself a layer of mystery and frightening color.

These materials have passed into Luo Yao's hands, and they have already passed through several departments in the military system. If this "Kappa" team can be found out, then there is no need for Luo Yao, a newly formed rookie team, to take over.

Said to be reused.

In fact, it was a dead horse acting as a living horse doctor. After all, Luo Yao almost caught the other party, but because the other party was too cautious, he didn't go out personally, and the result fell short.

Before returning to Jiangcheng.

Luo Yao also went to meet Yoshida Shoushan in secret, but Dai Yunong was a person who kept his promise, announced his death to the public, gave him a new identity, and arranged for him to work in the military command.

If he and Yoshida Shoushan have been alone for nearly two hours, the content is naturally everything about the "Kappa" group. Yoshida is going to Yamashiro soon, so I don't know when we will meet again next time.

Gather all the leads.

Use the method of elimination to make deletions.

Luo Yao discovered a point that he had never thought of.

Twilight Cafe.

This place was the place where Luo Yao planned to use Yoshida Shoushan as a bait to meet "Lin Miao" and make an appointment to scare the snake away.

Later, "Lin Miao" didn't go, or he went and found out that it was a trap, so he didn't show up.

But Luo Yao's goal was achieved.

Otherwise, at the Songtao Bookstore, Tang Xin led people to ambush, Zhang Wang had already waited, and there would be no gains.

"Lin Miao" woke up in a start, and instead of going there in person, he sent his own men down. Pianshan Xiaomi was dead, and this mystery could only be known when he was caught.

But what is certain is that "Lin Miao" knew that Twilight Coffee House was a trap, and that Yoshida must have betrayed after being caught, but he still sent someone there.

The radio is so precious, I believe that any spy lurking behind the enemy's rear will not let it go, even if it is a risk, he will try it, if it were him, he might make the same choice.

Or, he has reason to believe that Yoshida did not really rebel. In fact, Yoshida did not really rebel at the time, and the reason for his false rebellion was to use this opportunity to warn his "own people".

At that time, Yoshida didn't know that Songtao Bookstore had been exposed. Luo Yao took advantage of this and designed to lure his opponent to inform Songtao Bookstore's Oikawa and the radio station to transfer, so that one person could get the stolen goods.

This plan seems to be successful, but the result is not satisfactory. The biggest leader of the spy organization is still at large.

In addition to Yoshida Shoushan's appointment with "Lin Miao" to meet at Twilight Cafe, during the search of Songtao Bookstore's evidence, it was also found that Twilight Coffee's homemade dessert packaging bags, Oi Chuan is a frequent customer of Twilight Cafe.

Twilight Cafe is indeed the hottest cafe in the French Concession, with many customers. There is no doubt about it. Both Yoshida and Oikawa have been to Twilight Cafe for consumption, which is not difficult to understand.

One is a bank clerk with a high income, so he can afford coffee, and the other is a bookstore owner, a cultural person. Drinking coffee is a petty bourgeois sentiment and fashion, and there is nothing doubtful about it.

However, one detail made Luo Yao feel that Twilight Cafe might not be that simple.

He remembered that Yoshida entered behind him and Gong Hui, and it was a young waiter who greeted Yoshida. At that time, he asked Yoshida what he wanted to drink.

Yoshida replied: "A cup of coffee, thank you."

A general coffee shop will never provide only one kind of coffee. Even for regular customers, the waiter will ask more questions. After all, if the customer wants to change the taste?

Even if Yoshida was a regular customer, the waiter shouldn't have turned around and left without even asking, but he could see clearly that Yoshida had no other communication with the waiter.

Later, he recalled that another waiter should have brought the coffee to Yoshida, which did not conform to the rules of cafe service.

Generally, whoever receives the reception will serve until the end. If there is a change in the middle, it is not clear who should get the tip of the guest.

Was there something wrong with the waiter, or was Yoshida hiding some crucial information from him?

Yoshida has already rebelled. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have concealed something. Is it because he is overthinking, or does it have nothing to do with it?

Those clues are all broken, people who should be arrested and killed should be killed. We can only find one or two from the confession, but this is not an ordinary difficulty.

"Xiaohui, you've been bored at home for two days, come out for a walk with me?" Luo Yao walked down the stairs while twisting his sore arms.

"Are you willing to come down?" Gong Hui was sitting in the living room downstairs, eating iced watermelon, very comfortable.

"Who bought the watermelon?"

"Old Liu bought it, iced it with well water, eat a piece?" Gong Hui said.

"Don't eat, you change your clothes and go out with me." Luo Yao ordered, since he doubted Twilight Cafe, he would naturally go to have a look.

However, before confirming the suspicion in his heart, he would not easily tell Gong Hui and others, so as not to affect their judgment.

"where to?"

"Drink coffee." Luo Yao said.

"Oh." Gong Hui quickly threw away the watermelon rind in her hand, and ran into her room. After a while, she came out wearing a water lake blue brocade cheongsam.

"How is it? Are you okay?" Gong Hui asked Luo Yao, turning around in front of him.

"The hairstyle is too mature, it doesn't suit you, change it."

"Then wait for me for a while." Gong Hui rolled her eyes at Luo Yao, lifted up a corner of her cheongsam, and ran back quickly, only coming out after 10 minutes.

Her hair was shoulder length, gathered behind her head, and simply tied into a bow.

"This is very good. Without makeup, nature is the most beautiful." Luo Yao nodded. He didn't like heavy makeup. Although Han Yun was considered a beauty, he couldn't appreciate her taste.

"Then let's go." Gong Hui picked up the pink calfskin bag on the table, her eyes filled with joyful smiles.

Chapter 0061

It's already autumn.

By the time the sun reaches three or four in the afternoon, it is no longer so vicious. Although it is still very hot, it does not feel stuffy and sticky after a little sweat.

The Japanese military planes that bombed Jiangcheng still came here from time to time, but most of the time it was in the morning and noon, and basically they would not come in the afternoon.

If it gets dark right now, the little Japanese plane won't be able to see the way home. It's easy to get lost in the mountains. (Japanese fighter planes are not good at night combat, this should not be what I said)

As the Japanese army was about to approach the city, the atmosphere in Xiakou gradually became tense, and the people did not have much confidence in the authorities. Therefore, many people had already left their homes and businesses and were ready to leave.

The bustling and bustling concession area gradually became deserted.

The number of pedestrians on the street has dropped by [-]% to [-]% compared to two months ago. By the way, the business of the shops along the street has also dropped a lot, and many of them have closed.

The popular catering service industry such as cafes has naturally been greatly affected. The war is imminent, and there are fewer people who are still willing to drink a cup of coffee.

"Mr. Qin, Miss Hui, long time no see." As soon as Luo Yao and Gong Hui took their seats, Lao Mu walked over with a smile, bowed slightly, and greeted them.

Luo Yao chuckled, "Boss Mu still remembers us?"

Luo Yao used the pseudonym "Qin Ming", so Lao Mu called him "Mr. Qin".

"Of course I remember. You and Ms. Hui have come to my place to drink coffee twice, but they have never used the benefits of free order for new customers. I am very impressed." Lao Mu explained naturally.

"So it's like this, it's our fault that we didn't use the benefits." Luo Yao laughed, "Then can we still use this benefits?"

"of course can."

"Forget it, I want to keep this benefit for later use, so there is a reason for me to come to you again, isn't it?" Luo Yao smiled.

"You are a very interesting person."

"Boss Mu, you are also a very thoughtful and well-run boss." Luo Yao praised.

"Thank you Mr. Qin for your appreciation." Lao Mu asked, "You two, are you still the same as before?"

Luo Yao nodded.

Lao Mu smiled and said, "Wait a minute, I'll be here soon."

The taste of the coffee did not change, Luo Yao took a small sip and began to enter the state of "listening to the wind", since he had doubts about Twilight Coffee House.

Then of course he will come to listen.

Calm down, ignore the sound of music and the voices of guests talking, only the busy voices of waiters and kitchens in the coffee house, and the boss Lao Mu remain.

There are four waiters in the coffee house, three people in the back kitchen, a barista, a pastry chef, and a handyman.

Including the boss, there are eight people in total.

All are men.

The Twilight Cafe opened in the morning until it closed at around [-]:[-] pm, which lasted eleven hours. During such a long period of time, there should be shift changes and shift breaks.

Luo Yao didn't pay attention to the appearance of the waiter who greeted Yoshida, after all he didn't suspect the waiter at that time, but he still remembered the voice of the waiter.

As long as the voice appeared, he could find the waiter.

It's a pity that he didn't find the waiter he was looking for. If he hadn't left the job, he might have been laid off.

Drinking coffee, listening to soothing music, the mood is rare to relax.

I have to say that this place is indeed a comfortable place. If you sit here every day, your depressed mood will be swept away.

"Mr. Qin, Ms. Hui, would you like to try our new product, the Black Forest Cake." A waiter came over, bent down and asked, "Our boss made it himself."

"Ok."

Luo Yao nodded, Black Forest Cake is a kind of dessert from Germany, it is not popular in China right now, and there are not many pastry chefs who know how to do it.

Lao Mu actually knows how to make this kind of dessert. This is because he has stayed in Germany.

The workmanship of Black Forest Cake is extremely exquisite, and the process is quite complicated. It is even a protected dessert in Germany. If it is not made according to the technical requirements, if it is discovered, the cake shop will even be closed, and the pastry chef will also be thrown into prison. stay for a while.

After a while, two Black Forest cakes arrived.

Black chocolate chips, after biting open, you can see the rich black cherry pulp inside, sweet, mellow, and there is a hint of sweet and sour in the mouth.

The stimulating taste buds burst into joy in an instant.

Very authentic.

This is Luo Yao's life, no, it should be said that he has eaten the most delicious Black Forest cake in his memory, it is simply perfect.

"Delicious." Gong Hui didn't know the origin of the Black Forest Cake. She took a bite, and the chocolate and cream melted in her mouth. The milky fragrance mixed with the aroma of cherry brandy, and the taste buds on her stimulating tongue bloomed like flowers. Happy The taste fills the whole mouth at once.

"Can I have another piece?" Gong Hui asked after eating her own small piece.

"The calories in this piece of Black Forest cake are equivalent to three bowls of rice you eat, are you sure you want to come again?" Luo Yao asked with a smile.

"How can I miss such a delicious thing? It's a big deal. I'll skip dinner today." Gong Hui said, desserts are very attractive to women.

"Miss Hui likes the Black Forest cake I made. It's my honor. Today, Miss Hui can eat as much as she wants. I'll treat you." Lao Mu untied his apron and walked over with a piece of Black Forest cake. One piece was obviously much bigger than the one they had just now.

"It's still Boss Mu who is straightforward and generous." Gong Hui said with a smile.

"Boss Mu has been to Germany?"

"I once traveled and studied in Europe for a while, in Germany, and stayed in Berlin for about two months." Lao Mu recalled.

"No wonder." Luo Yao nodded, "Boss Mu, how many years has your coffee shop been open?"

"It's been four or five years. I bought it from a Frenchman. He didn't manage well. I just arrived at the market and wanted to make a living. Seeing that the location is good, I made it." Lao Mu explained.

"This location is facing the busiest street in the French Concession. As long as you open the door, you can make money while lying down, but it's not doing well?"

"That Frenchman likes to gamble, and the money he makes is not enough for him to lose in the casino." Lao Mu smiled.

Luo Yao nodded: "This gambling is really harmful, and Boss Mu also got a big deal."

"The transfer fee is not cheap. At that time, there were several people who valued this place. The Frenchman agreed to transfer it to me because of the French dishes I cooked first-hand."

"I see, will our chatting like this affect your business, Boss Mu?" Luo Yao asked thoughtfully.

"No, there aren't many guests at the moment. They are busy and don't need my help." Lao Mu smiled slightly, shook his head and said.

"That's good. I see Boss Mu's conversation is very elegant, so he must come from an unusual background." Luo Yao smiled slightly and asked tentatively.

"As for me, my ancestors are the children of the Eight Banners. With the Qing Dynasty gone, we people don't have the privileges of the past. I went to study abroad in the early years, and I have seen some things in the world." Old Mu talked eloquently.

It can be seen that this old Mu still has a trace of the arrogance of the old aristocrat, but this arrogance is restrained, and ordinary people can't see it.

"It turns out that you are still a nobleman, and you are disrespectful."

"It's all old and old, so I don't want to mention it. Now it's the Republic of China, everyone is equal, and the Eight Banners nobles are a thing of the past." Lao Mu chuckled.

Boss Mu is a very talkative person. He can chat with you about astronomy, geography, history and humanities anecdotes, and he is humorous. He is a rare chat partner.

Before I knew it, half an hour passed.

"Boss Mu, I've bothered you for too long, we should go too." Seeing the twilight fall outside the window, Luo Yao got up and said.

"Mr. Qin, Ms. Hui, you two are free, you can come and have a seat at any time." Lao Mu said.
