Liu Chuhen
In fact, December in previous years was not as cold as it is now. At this time of year, pedestrians in S City have become rare and precious. Even in the cross streets with prosperous commerce, you can only occasionally see a tottering customer slowly walking under the eaves, patting the snow on his shoulders. At this time, a thinly dressed woman stood in front of the door of No. 71 Cross Street, biting her black and purple lips, looking into the door tremblingly. "Excuse me, is this a detective agency?" Zou Yuxian was reading the local news in the newspaper when he heard someone speaking: "No." The voice of the answer was not angry. It's no wonder, because reading the newspaper every morning is the time that Zou Yuxian enjoys the most, and he doesn't want to be disturbed.
