(9) After several days of careful preparation, I specially published a paragraph of [Author's Note] at the end of the latest serialization of the novel: "Thanks to [Chang Lu Ming] for his wonderful message, which often enlightens me. [Chang Lu Ming] said before that he also settled in Hong Kong. What a coincidence! I hope to have the opportunity to chat face to face in the future and get more interesting suggestions to make "False Murder" more perfect~~" After the serialization was updated, I waited nervously for a response. A few hours later, [Chang Lu Ming] replied. I didn't expect that he really accepted my invitation. He also suggested that we meet at the coffee shop that was converted from the barber shop downstairs of Lin Wen's house. I immediately notified Li Chuang, and he decided to arrange Little Officer to dress up as a waiter in the coffee shop and cooperate with me. Li Chuang himself would also dress up as a customer and sit nearby to ensure that the DNA sample of Zhao Luming could be successfully obtained. The agreed time was 3:00 p.m. three days later. I arrived at the coffee shop early, and Li Chuang and Little Officer were already in place. I chose a seat by the window, ordered a cup of Americano, and quietly waited for Zhao Luming to arrive. At 14:55 in the afternoon, the door was pushed open and a man walked in. I immediately matched this man with Zhao Luming's photo in my mind. It was him! Zhao Luming was tall and slender, wearing a dark gray wool coat, with shoulder-length hair combed meticulously, revealing a smooth forehead. At first glance, he looked gentle, but I could feel that he exuded a neurotic temperament. After scanning the store, his eyes finally fell on me. Then he immediately showed a polite smile and walked straight towards me. "Teacher Qin Mo?" I stood up and shook his hand. "Mr. Chang Lu Ming? Nice to meet you." Zhao Luming ordered a latte and we exchanged a few pleasantries. I pretended that I knew about his identity as a violinist, Zhao Luming, for the first time and talked to him about music, literature and his feelings about life. Zhao Luming fell into a short silence. He gently stirred the coffee in front of him and raised his head after a moment. "Teacher Qin Mo, to be honest, the reason why I pay so much attention to your novel is because of a personal experience of mine, which coincidentally coincides with the plot of your novel." I was moved, but pretended to be surprised, "Oh? It's such a coincidence? Mr. Zhao, can you share your experience?" Zhao Luming did not answer immediately. After a moment, he smiled bitterly, "It was many years ago. A girl I once loved deeply, just like what you wrote in your novel, I lost her forever..." In the following conversation, I found that as long as the past 20 years ago was mentioned, Zhao Luming's eyes would flash with pain, and he always avoided talking about it. In addition, I found that getting his DNA was much more difficult than I expected.
Zhao Luming had not touched the coffee in front of him from the beginning, whether out of caution or simply because it did not suit his taste. He only stirred it occasionally.
I realized that I could not just sit back and wait; I had to take the initiative.
"Mr. Zhao, would you like to try some cake? Their signature Napoleon is quite good," I suggested. Without waiting for his response, I immediately ordered a slice.
Before long, the Little Officer waiter brought the cake over. I enthusiastically urged Zhao Luming to take a bite of this dessert. Although he seemed a bit hesitant, he could not refuse my warm invitation and took a small taste.
That was it!
I had obtained Zhao Luming's DNA sample!
