Chapter 42 - What are you interested in? (1/2)

'TING'

Suddenly an idea hit his mind.

Before going to the coffee house, Feng Jianyu went straight to a book shop and purchased a book on hacking.

After reaching the coffee house, he settled down and ordered his coffee. He opened his laptop and started typing something on it by following instructions from the book. Alice came there and put his coffee on the table as usual, ”Your coffee sir, please have it while it's still hot”. She smiled and left.

For almost 3 hours he sat there and worked on the laptop. From time to time he would curse silently, and tap on laptop keys roughly. Alice saw this and frowned, but did not approach him.

Feeling annoyed, he got up and left the place.

While cleaning the table, Alice found a book kept on the chair. Taking the book in his hands she frowned, ”Hackers hacking? I think that strange man left it behind. I will give him back tomorrow”.

Second day Feng Jianyu repeated the same thing and brought a different book with him. He again sat down and started doing something on his laptop while following instructions from the book. Alice came with his coffee, ”Sir, your coffee”.

”Hm!”, He made a sound.

She saw him concentrating on a new book and then typing something on the laptop. ”Sir, I believe this book belongs to you. Yesterday I found it here while cleaning”, she forwarded a book in front of him.

”This book is useless! Just throw it away. I don't want it”, He replied hastily.

”Sir, are you sure?”

He only nodded at her question without looking at her.

”Ok sir”, she gave him a perplexed look and left.

Second day also he did the same and left the book behind before leaving.

Third day he came again with a different book and opened his laptop to follow instructions from this new book. She put the coffee on the table, ”Sir, coffee!”

”Thank you”

”Sir, yesterday you left this book behind”, she put the book on the table.

”No no i don't need this book. It's not a good book, throw it away.”, Without lifting his eyes from the laptop he rejected the book.

”Ok sir”, she was bemused by what was happening.

After she left, Feng Jianyu looked towards her from the corner of his eyes and smiled mischievously.

'Don't worry little girl, it's been just three days. Soon you will fall for my trap and I will make sure that you come with me. '

While cleaning she found another book, ”Java Coding?”. She frowned and sighed, ”Again that strange man! It's the third book in the last three days”.

Now, this has become a daily routine of Feng Jianyu. Every day he will bring a new book with him and would pretend to do something on his laptop from that book.

Before leaving the coffee house he would leave the book behind. When next day Alice would try to return him the book, he would ask her to throw it away.

But on the 7th day, along with the book he left something else too. It was the application form to enter the International Informatics Talent Hunt Exam.

While cleaning the table, she found a book and a brochure with a form inside it. Keeping the book aside, she picked the brochure and murmured, 'International Informatics Talent Hunt Exam'.

'Hm? Informatics?'

'This is my field of interest'.

She opened the brochure and started reading it. But some customers arrived at the coffee house, so she kept it aside along with the book and returned to her work. Her first priority is her customers and she buried herself in her work.

Next day when Feng Jianyu came, as usual, she gave him his coffee, ”Sir, your coffee”.

He accepted the coffee, But today he was anticipating for something else.
