"Yasen, two Blue Mountain coffees and one latte, pack them up for me when you're done."
Shangguan Lin approached the front desk and began to speak.
"OK, wait."
Chen Feng smiled and agreed, then looked at Lin Qingyao beside him.
Lin Qingyao immediately understood, rolled her eyes, and reluctantly got up to make coffee.
Chen Feng turned his gaze to Shangguan Lin again: "How is Sister Xi? Is she feeling better?"
"Thankfully, Xiaoxi is recovering quite quickly. Also, thank you for the medicine."
Shangguan Lin smiled and spoke.
Yesterday, after "just learning" that Shangguan Xi was sick, Yasen brought a lot of medicine that very day. Although they didn't use it, it still made the Shangguan sisters feel much more favorably toward this warm and handsome neighbor.
Seeing that Chen Feng and Shangguan Lin were having a good chat, Sun Yuqing also came over with a curious look on her face.
"Boss, it's been a few days, where have you found all these new customers?"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "What do you mean by lying? This is our new neighbor, Miss Shangguan from the dessert shop next door."
"The dessert shop next door?" Sun Yuqing said, "I was just thinking about dessert, so let's go next door and buy a small cake."
Just as Sun Yuqing was about to leave, Shangguan Meng spoke up behind her.
"Sorry, our store is temporarily closed and not open for business."
Sun Yuqing turned around and looked back, only to find Shangguan Meng meeting her gaze without the slightest fear.
Sun Yuqing was completely baffled, wondering what she had done to offend this complete stranger.
However, she wasn't petty and didn't hold it against Shangguan Meng. She simply nodded and left the coffee shop.
"This little girl is quite vengeful..."
Chen Feng shook his head with a smile to himself.
Shangguan Lin knew, of course, that Shangguan Meng had said that because of Sun Yuqing's earlier comment that "the other phantom thief was scared."
He glared at her immediately, but since they were still outside, he didn't say anything more.
Today, it seemed as if all the regular customers at the coffee shop had made a pact to come, one after another.
As soon as Sun Yuqing left, Su Luoxue rushed in through the door.
"Arsène! The usual, half-sweet mocha!"
Su Luoxue sat down in a seat in the store, her face still showing signs of anger.
Upon seeing Su Luoxue, the captain of the pursuit team, arrive, Shangguan Lin and Shangguan Meng were immediately taken aback.
However, they quickly realized that Su Luoxue was not there to arrest them, so they quickly adjusted their behavior, pretended that nothing was wrong, and chatted normally.
"Why are you so angry, ma'am?"
Chen Feng slowly walked to the seat opposite Su Luoxue and sat down, handing her a glass of ice water first.
Su Luoxue took the ice water and gulped down a large mouthful.
This barely managed to conceal some of his anger.
Do you know what happened yesterday?
"Is it about the thief succeeding?" Chen Feng asked.
"cough……"
Su Luoxue coughed slightly awkwardly, but quickly waved her hand.
"It's not that one, it's from the H City Museum, the one from the phantom thief who previously had his eye on [Desert Star] with Chen Feng."
They actually stole a treasure from the H City Museum while both of our pursuit teams were focused on the south side of the city! Absolutely despicable!
"what?"
Shangguan Meng, who had been pretending to be nonchalant, could no longer keep up the act after hearing these words and exclaimed in surprise.
Even the usually composed Shangguan Lin frowned slightly, pondering all the possibilities.
Her first thought was that Chen Feng had gone to the museum in H City and stolen something while he was away with Xiao Xi.
But upon further reflection, this conjecture was quickly overturned.
Not to mention that Xiaoxi had no reason to deceive him on such an important matter.
Just considering the distance, the private collection was located in the south of the city, while the H City Museum was located in the northern part of the city center. The round trip would take at least 6 hours!
The timing doesn't match at all!
"And this is...?"
Seeing Shangguan Meng suddenly speak up, Su Luoxue couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Shangguan Meng reacted quickly; upon seeing Su Luoxue's gaze, she didn't retreat but instead stepped forward with a smile.
"Hello Captain Su, my name is Shangguan Meng, a college student who likes phantom thieves, and also a fan of yours."
"Hello."
Without thinking much of it, Su Luoxue shook hands with Shangguan Meng, who was extending her hand.
Shangguan Lin also came up.
"Captain Su, you just mentioned another thief who took advantage of the situation while all your attention was focused on the south of the city and stole a treasure from the museum?"
"Yes."
Su Luoxue picked up her water glass again, took a sip of ice water, and nodded without denying it.
"How do you know it was that phantom thief who did it?" Shangguan Meng asked impatiently.
"This one?"
Su Luoxue finished the rest of the ice water, took out her phone from her pocket, opened the photo album, and handed it to the others.
"This item was found at the scene of the theft; you can take a look."
Chen Feng and the Shangguan sisters both looked at the phone screen.
The photo shows a scene in a side hall of the museum.
The rectangular glass cabinet was smashed, with shards of glass scattered all around, and the items stored inside had long since disappeared.
……
Chapter 103 Framing?
Most importantly, next to the broken glass display case, there was a black plastic card with a rose pattern printed on the back.
The design is exactly the same as the announcement letter that the Shangguan sisters previously sent out regarding the [Desert Stars] necklace!
"This……"
Shangguan Meng was stunned. She even glanced uncertainly at Shangguan Lin beside her, wondering if there were any other plans from last night that she hadn't told her.
Shangguan Meng turned her head and saw that Shangguan Lin was also frowning, seemingly pondering what was going on.
Su Luoxue put her phone away: "This matter will be announced today, and you can check the news then."
Upon hearing Su Luoxue's words, Shangguan Lin frowned even more deeply.
She is now almost 100% certain that someone is using their name to commit theft and then framing them.
Just then, the Shangguan sisters' coffee was ready.
Shangguan Lin took the coffee from Lin Qingyao at the front desk and then left the coffee shop with Shangguan Meng.
Watching the two women leave, Chen Feng didn't say anything more, but continued chatting with Su Luoxue as if nothing had happened.
Until Su Luoxue left.
……
It was around dusk.
A post suddenly appeared:
[The most shameless phantom thief has appeared? The promised time never arrived, but while the pursuit team's attention was focused on the south of the city, he stole a treasure from the museum—the Jade Lotus Robe!]
After this post appeared, its popularity soared, and it immediately climbed to second place on the trending topics list!
Subsequently, countless similar posts appeared, with content largely the same as the one above.
Such high popularity has naturally attracted the attention of many netizens.
Upon seeing the content of the post, they were immediately enraged and began to hurl insults.
In particular, Chen Feng's fans and some Phantom Thief enthusiasts were quick to criticize him, their mouths practically poisoned.
"Damn it! I've never seen such a shameless person in my life! I've certainly seen it for myself today!"
"It's one thing that you didn't dare to go after issuing the notice yourself, but you actually took advantage of the situation when Chen Feng was on the move and distracted the pursuit team, and went to the north to steal things from the museum!"
"How shameless! This is supposed to be a phantom thief? It's an insult to the name of a phantom thief!"
"He's not just shameless, he's downright despicable! He even has the nerve to call himself a phantom thief! Disgusting! Absolutely disgusting!"
"Support! This is utterly shameless!"
……
boom!
The dessert shop is on the second floor.
Looking at the reports and comments on her phone, Shangguan Meng slammed her hand on the table in anger, her face turning ashen.
Shangguan Lin's expression was also not good.
It was already disheartening to see the previous operation fail, but now to be slandered as a petty person who took advantage of the situation is even more infuriating.
If they really did this, that would be one thing, but the thing is... they know nothing about it!
"call……"
