crime profiler in the dark

On this day, Bai Haolin made an appointment for dinner with a senior who is currently working in the Ministry of Justice, and he arrived at the humble house ahead of schedule.

The humble house is located in the busiest commercial center of TMX City. It has only three floors and it is incompatible with the towering steel forest around it. Spring is still the food, the layout of the restaurant is still the clothes and manners of the waiters, and the humble house strives for excellence.

Its operator is the descendant of Lu Yu, the tea saint of the Tang Dynasty. In order to promote the tea ceremony, a special tea room was set up in the backyard of the humble house. Every guest waiting for a meal will be led to the tea room, and professionally trained tea masters will show them the tea ceremony. The culture is extensive and profound, and Lu Yaming is the best tea master among them. According to the regulations of the Lu family, every guest who first arrives at the humble house will be received by Lu Yaming in person. This is how Bai Haolin knew her at first.

After reporting the name of the person making the reservation at the front desk, Bai Haolin pretended to be casual and asked, "Is Miss Lu Yaming in?"

"Second Miss? Yes, sir, is she looking for her?" The waiter at the front desk asked politely.

"It's okay, it's fine if she's not free." Bai Haolin didn't directly refuse, but replied ambiguously.

The tea room is equivalent to the waiting area, but the tea room in the humble house is different.

There is a courtyard behind the three-story dining hall of the humble house, but this courtyard is not an ordinary place for viewing flowers and fish, but for tea tasting.

The waiter at the front desk led Bai Haolin to the entrance of the courtyard, and a waitress in a tea room dressed in white with cascading black hair hanging down her waist led Bai Haolin the way.

The courtyard of the humble house was built in imitation of Qin Shihuang's Afang Palace, of course, the area and scale are not as exaggerated as the Afang Palace.A long corridor embraces the courtyard in the shape of "冂".The corridor is about one meter wide, and the tea room is on the left. Guests can see the pleasant scenery in the center of the courtyard in the tea room.

At this time, it was the beginning of the lights, and beige lanterns were hung on the side of the corridor. The distance between each lantern was about half a meter. The faint light reflected the spotless nanmu floor in the corridor, making people feel as if they were in peace. In the solemn temple.Although the sky has dimmed, there are firefly-like fluorescent lights flying in the courtyard, which brings out a kind of freshness and nature that cannot be experienced in the city.

The waiter led Bai Haolin to a tea room.

The tea room is about ten square meters. In the center is a tea table with a height of only [-] centimeters. The tea table is rectangular, and a set of porcelain tea sets have been placed on it. Behind the tea table, there is a locker next to the wall. There is an exquisitely shaped tea utensil on it, the tea utensil is only the size of an adult man's fist, and different kinds of tea are placed in tea utensils of different textures, just to achieve the best storage effect.

There is a flower stand on both sides of the locker, and a pot of asparagus bamboo is placed on it, which adds a bit of greenness to the tea room; three Chinese paintings are hung on the walls on both sides, and the paintings on the left wall are pine, bamboo, On the right wall are plums, peaches, plums and apricots.

Bai Haolin walked to the painting, but before he had time to look at it carefully, the door of the tea room was pushed open.A young woman with bright eyes, bright teeth and firm skin entered the tea room. She was Lu Yaming.
