"Thirty cups?" The boss was surprised. He felt that Tao Lin was deliberately helping the store overcome the business difficulties ahead.

"This case is very complicated. Everyone in the team stayed up late and needs coffee to refresh themselves. Just do it." Tao Lin smiled, implying that he wanted the coffee shop owner to relax.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The boss immediately placed the order quickly, and then she shouted, and the backstage started to get busy.

After paying, Tao Lin looked down at his leather shoes and was silent for a while.

"Hey, how do I remember that someone was invited to play the piano in the coffee shop before?" Then he transitioned to a new question in a logical manner.

This is the real purpose of Tao Lin coming to the coffee shop today.

"Yes, the piano player who used to play the piano will come in the evening." The boss immediately answered Tao Lin's question.

"The musicians haven't been here recently, right?" Tao Lin took over his words.

"Hey, I haven't been here a few weeks ago, and the store has never found a suitable musician, so the piano has been idle." The boss waved his hand.

"Teacher Tao asked about this, do you like listening to piano in the store? Then I will find a new musician another day." He looked up at Tao Lin again and said in a different tone.

The owner of the coffee shop has heard about Tao Lin's deeds in solving unsolved cases, so he really respects him and really wants to make friends with him.

"No, no, no, even if there are new musicians, the taste of the music will be different." Tao Lin immediately raised his hand to interrupt the boss, and immediately found an excuse to excuse himself.

"It seems that someone came to your coffee shop and caused trouble once. Is this the case?" Tao Lin asked next.

"Yes, but that was all a long time ago." The boss answered.

Tao Lin's memory was never wrong. On the day the cafe was rioted, he was sitting in the cafe, drinking coffee and correcting course materials. The fierce noise gave him a headache, but the group of people who came to make trouble had clear goals and

I didn't want to embarrass the store owner, so I made a lot of noise and dragged someone along, and left quickly.

"I remember that the piano player never came after someone made trouble," Tao Lin continued.

This was a detail that he still remembered vividly. The gangsters who caused trouble took people away from the store, and the sound of the piano suddenly stopped. No one has played the piano since then.

"Yes, yes..." The boss nodded immediately.

"Do you know why those people came to make trouble?" Tao Lin asked.

"They came for the piano player, and I didn't get involved that much after that. I tried to care about it, but the musician didn't say much to me, and then... I ignored it.

." The boss replied.

Nowadays, everything in the coffee shop is stable and orderly, no one comes to cause trouble anymore, and most people don't pursue it so much anymore.

"Do you still have the musician's contact information?" Tao Lin asked a question that seemed a bit strange.

"I'll look for it for you." The coffee shop owner immediately took his phone and started looking through WeChat and his phone's address book.

"We have actually lost contact, and I don't know if there is anything left in the phone..." He muttered to himself and searched again and again.

But after he turned over it for a while, Tao Lin only got a shake of his head.

"What about the surveillance video? Do you still have the video of the gangster arguing with the musician in the store?" Tao Lin continued to ask.

"The surveillance video in the store is covered every fifteen days. I think this matter has been settled, so I didn't save it carefully. It should be impossible to find it..." The boss shook his head helplessly.

Tao Linxiao sighed. The clues ended here, so he could only give up.

"I'm really sorry, I can't help you at all." The boss scratched his head, as if he felt a little sorry.

"It's okay, it's not a big problem." Tao Lin quickly waved his hand, pretending to be indifferent.

The back kitchen has been busy non-stop, the aroma of coffee is overflowing more and more, and the sealing machine makes mechanical muffled sounds one after another.

Tao Lin couldn't leave this store for a while.

"You don't mind if I ask you some questions directly about yesterday's case?" Tao Lin coughed lightly and spoke again.

"You ask, you ask." The boss nodded immediately and replied.

"Why are the steel wire racks on the second floor of your store always exposed?" Tao Lin's question was indeed very direct.

"It's snowing in R City these days. It's too dangerous for decoration masters to work outdoors in the snow. In this kind of weather conditions, masters usually don't work, so the decoration work on the signboard will be stopped for a few days. Anyway, we

The store's anniversary is at the end of November, and it's only November 7th now, so there's no rush..." the cafe owner explained.

"Did you know that your thin steel wires were replaced with piano wires?" Tao Lin continued to ask.

His eyes seemed to emit a sharp light all the time. Just glancing over like this was so suffocating that it made the boss's heart beat in confusion.

"What? Piano wire?" He was immediately surprised, and then quickly shook his head.

"I don't know, I didn't even go outside to see those steel wire racks during the snowy day."

This topic suddenly made the young man nervous. He kept stammering in his explanation, as if he was afraid that he would be misunderstood by Tao Lin, and just wanted to quickly distance himself from this terrible murder.

The steel wire frame on which Zheng Xuan's body was dismembered was indeed installed by the cafe to celebrate its anniversary, but who would have thought that the thin steel wire was replaced with more lethal piano wire, creating such a horrific crime scene.

At this time, one cup after another of hot lattes was being made, and the clerks began to put the coffee neatly into cartons.

"Hey! Teacher Tao, your thirty cups of hot latte are ready. Where is your car? Can I bring it to your car?" When the young man saw that all the coffee was put into the box, he wiped it away.

With sweat on his head, he picked up the carton and wanted to send Tao Lin out enthusiastically.

He finally found an excuse to end the topic and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, I'm just asking about the situation. You don't have to be too nervous." Tao Lin saw that he was frightened by his question, so he smiled relaxedly and patted the man on the shoulder to express comfort.

"My car is parked on the side of the road, please excuse me." Tao Lin said, turned and left the cafe.

He walked to the car parked on the roadside, opened the back seat, asked his boss to help him put the box on the back seat, then said goodbye to him, got into the driver's seat, and left.

Just after half past eight, Tao Lin's car appeared at the gate of R City Police Station——

He was an old friend with the people from the R City Police Department, so his car drove into the police station parking lot smoothly. He wrapped himself in his coat, picked up a box of coffee from the back seat, and got into the cold wind to face the police.

Walk to the bureau hall.
