Conan: The Self-cultivation of Fake Wine

With a bang, the glass bottle fell to the ground, and the white ointment inside flowed all over the floor.

Ah, this ointment is very expensive.

Forget it, everything doesn't matter anymore.

"Yoko? Yoko!"

……

"Yoko Okino is hospitalized?"

Lu Ren answered the phone with a strange expression.

Is this passage included in the original novel? Why is he not impressed? Could it be because of him?

No, no, he hasn't done anything yet.

The blame must not be placed on him.

"Is it serious? Was she hit by a car or stabbed? Well, that's it. She's just mentally exhausted, so just rest for two days. Let her not forget the meeting the day after tomorrow."

Lu Ren hung up the phone and continued to write the manuscript.

The call just now was from the newspaper office. Lu Ren hopes that Dongbao will provide him with some latest news in real time.

Naturally, the more information the better, it might be able to save his life one day.

Sato Kiyoshi did not refuse and directly appointed a person to be responsible for informing him of various news.

I also met that man, Lu Ren. He was in his mid-thirties, his name was Ichihara Sensai, he was a man, his voice was very magnetic, and he was very neat in doing things. Lu Ren was very satisfied with this.

As for what Yiyuan told him just now, Lu Ren didn't take it to heart.

Humans, there are always some days when we feel particularly tired, that’s normal.

Everyone is like this.

Just come and have a rest.

Intravenous drip, glucose infusion, etc.

There is always a way.

As long as it doesn't affect his main plot of solving crimes and earning lottery draws, that's all.

Now continue to work hard on writing manuscripts, and set a small goal first, to catch up with Kitajima Shino!

Lu Ren is full of energy.

……

"Yes, yes. Thank you for your hard work."

Yamagishi hung up the phone, his face still gloomy.

"That devil refused to let go and still wanted to see you by name."

"After all, it's him, so it's not surprising. I often read his articles."

"Yoko, I'm sorry." Looking at Okino Yoko lying on the hospital bed, Yamagishi could no longer say such nonsense as "opportunity" or "opportunity".

"No need to apologize, this is not your fault. You must have helped me fight for it, right?"

Okino Yoko now understands where the slap marks on Yamagishi's face came from.

Things have reached this point, so it's useless no matter how much you feel sorry for yourself.

It is better to think about whether there are any solutions.

If you can't think of a solution, just relax.

Tell yourself that since it's already so bad, how could it be any worse?

When there is nothing you can do, you can only try to live happily.

Time passed like this little by little, and in a blink of an eye it was already the third day.

The day we agreed to meet came.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the alarm clock rang.

Lu Ren put down his pen, pressed off the alarm clock, stood up and started to pack himself up to prepare for the next meeting.

In the past three days, except for necessary physiological activities, Lu Ren spent the rest of the time sitting at his desk.

Lu Ren can't even remember how many articles he wrote about practicing skills.

There are abandoned manuscripts everywhere on the table and on the floor.

One piece, one piece, even a group.

Although it is a bit tiring, the harvest is indeed not small.

Lu Ren could clearly feel that his writing level had improved again.

Although the appraisal shows that his current writing skill level is still advanced and has not become specialized.

But there is a big difference between entering the advanced level for the first time and advancing to the advanced level.

As long as you improve steadily in this way, it may be a bit difficult to become a master in two months, but it shouldn't be a problem to specialize in high-level skills.

Lu Ren packed himself up and went out to hail a taxi.

That’s pretty much it for the branch plot, now it’s time to move on to the main plot.

Solve crimes, rub corpses, earn lottery chances, and raid wineries!

ps: The author once read an interview and was deeply moved.

The reporter asked the worker with a bright smile on his face, "Master, how do you do it, earning only two to three thousand a month and still be so happy?"

The man suddenly stopped smiling and said calmly, "Because I have no choice."

Please recommend and collect. Tell good news. Signed. I originally thought there was no hope of signing this contract. I plan to update as the occasion arises hhh.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 26 A few things about prejudice (please recommend and collect)

"The coffee here is really good, but the food is just average. Otherwise, the business would be better."

After eating two black pepper fried steaks, one tomato pasta, and two bacon sandwiches, Lu Ren put down his tableware and commented elegantly.

Okino Yoko smiled back, what else could she say?

The large and small plates stacked on the table in front of him were all made by Lu Ren.

There was only one cup on the table for her, and she had only drank a cup of bitter coffee without sugar until now.

That's how she controls her weight. She's not the kind of person who can eat no matter how much she eats without getting fat.

The meals provided here are high in calories and are not even eaten. She didn't dare to eat it at all.

And Lu Ren could actually eat so much in one go. His appetite was so frightening.

"You have a great appetite."

"It's okay, that's it. It's just that I haven't eaten well these past few days."

Lu Ren ordered another fried steak. The pasta and sandwiches here are very average, but the steak is pretty good.

It tastes relatively fresh, not the kind of steak that has been frozen in the freezer for a long time.

While waiting for the food to be served, Lu Ren took the time to chat with Okino.

"I have always felt that being an actor is very hard. You can't eat this, you can't eat that. It is said that there are people who only eat a spoonful of rice a day, and the rest eats all kinds of vegetables and vitamin capsules. I always suspect that I will easily become depressed if I give up carbs like this. .”

"Actually, it's not bad. It was very painful at first."

Xu recalled that time, and the smile on Okino Yoko's face disappeared, and she slowly said, "It was indeed very greedy, even if it was just a bowl of ordinary white rice, it felt like it was supremely delicious. The whole person My spirit was also very bad, depressed and unhappy. But after surviving the most difficult period, things will be okay later on."

"You are very dedicated, Miss Yoko."

"You're honored. This is just basic common sense in the industry. If you don't do this, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry."

"That's true, your artists really work hard. And they don't make much."

"It's already very high. With the current economic downturn, life is not easy for everyone. Excluding daily expenses, I can still save my salary and buy two or three luxury goods throughout the year. I am very satisfied."

Yoko looked serious.

"Then you've never seen a traffic niche." Lu Ren shook his head, "Forget it, let's not mention this. It's too unlucky."

Just as the steak he had just ordered was served, Lu Ren moved the tableware again.

The atmosphere became silent again.

When eating with unfamiliar people, Lu Ren rarely takes the initiative to speak. At most, the other person was talking, and he nodded in agreement. Or when you ask him a question, give him a simple reply.

He was eating seriously the whole time.

Apart from company entertainment, that is work.

But now, it's not really work, it's just a simple meeting and chatting, and working on her case.

Whether we will continue to deal with each other in the future is hard to say.

It is now seven o'clock in the evening, and they met at half past five. The two have been in formal contact for an hour and a half.

Although the agreed time was six o'clock, they all arrived half an hour early.

During the time they were in contact, Lu Ren probably got to know Okino Yoko's personality.

Sunshine, vitality, optimism, gentleness. There is always a smile on his face, giving people a positive feeling. He is a pump, an energizer, and a blood replenishing pack. It is a handful of clear springs in a dry desert.

No wonder Mao Li likes her so much, even to the point of fanaticism.

It is indeed very lethal to middle-aged and elderly people.

She is a very good girl, but Lu Ren doesn't feel much about her.

I don’t reject or dislike it, but I don’t like it either.

There was always a smile on my face, it was very tiring.

This standard, perfect, business smile.

In Lu Ren's opinion, it was not as good as a blush on the girl's face.

Because it is fake, no matter how real it pretends to be, it is still fake.

At the beginning of this meeting, Lu Ren could clearly feel Okino Yoko's uneasiness and fear.

After all, he often discussed business with people in his previous life and didn't know how to read people's words, so he should change his career as soon as possible.

But even though he was so scared and uneasy, his smile still didn't change, as if it was fixed on his face with hairspray.

As for why she was afraid and uneasy, Lu Ren could probably guess it.

He stated that he had no such idea, but Sato Kiyoshi obviously still had the wrong idea. The TV station director is probably the same.

They are all masters, but they never finish.

As for why we didn't explain it right after we met.

Because Lu Ren was very hungry, and he went straight to the point and said that he had no ill intentions. He felt that Okino Yoko couldn't believe it, so he might as well eat before talking.

The reason why prejudice is prejudice is that people can only see what they want to see.

In psychology, this is called confirmation bias.

When people subjectively support a certain point of view, they tend to look for information that can support the point of view, and choose to ignore information that may overturn the point of view.

This thing makes sense when used to explain luck.

Similar are competing truths, mind-sets, and cognitive biases.

I won’t go into details here.

But now, the time should be almost there. If it's a little later, the body of Okino Yoko's ex-boyfriend will stink.

Lu Ren had just finished eating and didn't want it to affect his digestion.

"Yoko, you don't mind if I call you that."
