Chapter 604: Chapter 604: Equivalent to Eating Cockroaches
Gu Lanxin teased, “My sister, although you’re now a person with disabilities, weren’t you once a special agent? Has the injury really deprived you of your investigative abilities?”
“Humph! Provocation won’t work on ! I’ll figure it out!”
After hanging up the phone, Gu Lanxin laughed softly to herself, “So stubborn, isn’t that useful~”
…
Back at the Ancient Castle, Shen Cang placed Little Taotie flat on the surface of the Black Chicken Jade.
The table was large, and the little figure lay in the center, her sleeping face peaceful.
Since the Seventh Team Captain had no assignnts that day, he was playing on his phone on the first-floor sofa. Seeing Little Taotie being carried back, he was the first to rush over, asking eagerly, “What happened, what’s wrong with Zaizai?”
“It’s nothing serious, she’ll be fine once she wakes up,” Shen Cang dropped the comnt and went upstairs alone.
Cheng Guodong and Qin Xin were entering the Ancient Castle for the first ti and couldn’t help but look around curiously.
The girl with the round face was holding a bag of potato chips. She stuffed so into her mouth and asked while eating, “Who are you guys?”
Qin Xin smiled and answered, “We’re Little Taotie’s brothers.”
“Relatives, huh?” The round-faced girl offered them the potato chips, “Want so?”
Not feeling much appetite, Qin Xin shook his head and asked, “Is there any coffee?”
The round-faced girl found a pack of instant coffee.
Qin Xin said, “I don’t feel like eating cockroaches.”
“Cockroaches?”
Qin Xin glanced at the instant coffee in her hand, “Drinking instant coffee is like eating cockroaches.”
“Are you joking?” the round-faced girl shook her head, “That joke isn’t funny at all.”
Seeing her naive, round face, Qin Xin was tempted to tease her. He smiled and said, “As for coffee, it’s an industry open secret that drinking coffee is like eating cockroaches!”
The round-faced girl’s eyes widened like saucers, panic stirring within as she desperately tried to recall just how much instant coffee she had drunk, or rather, how many cockroaches she had eaten.
She heard the man’s voice beside her, gentle and smiling, “Pre-ground coffee, like the kind you buy in most stores, contains ground-up cockroaches.”
“A certain percentage of coffee beans attract cockroaches and other insects, and typically they can’t be completely processed out, so they end up being roasted and ground up with the coffee.”
“Most food regulatory agencies allow a certain portion of insect parts in our food, and the Food Defect Levels Handbook by the M country’s Food and Drug Administration indicates that insects are a common trace elent in coffee, with an average of about 10% of green coffee beans being infested with insects!”
“In Y country, most food regulatory agencies also permit a certain percentage of insects in food, and they are high in protein, which can enhance the flavor!”
“If you’re allergic to cockroaches, it’s best to stay away from coffee~”
“Cockroaches don’t have a particular fondness for any type of coffee bean. In fact, no matter what, they will find their way to the beans they prefer, whether they are dark or dium roast.”
“Cockroaches eat almost anything to get the energy and nutrients they need to survive. You could try using coffee to make a temporary homade cockroach trap; the results might surprise you!”
The round-faced girl’s ears were buzzing, and the smiling handso man in front of her seed to transform into a devil with a green face and sharp teeth.
She covered her ears, begging humbly, “Please stop, I don’t want to know… This truth is too cruel…”
Qin Xin smiled warmly, like a helpful big brother from next door, his voice gentle, “If all this makes you feel sick, perhaps the only solution is to buy coffee beans and grind them yourself at ho. That way, you can enjoy a mixture without cockroaches.”
“When you wake up, your cortisol levels are at their highest. Your body is actually already consuming caffeine. If you drink caffeine when your cortisol levels are already high, you won’t be able to enjoy all the benefits of coffee!”
“It will disrupt your biological clock, affecting your sleep, energy, and mood!”
Qin Xin leaned in close to her ear and whispered with a laugh, “Want to know the best ti to drink coffee?”
The round-faced girl was on the verge of tears but filled with a small animal’s curiosity, she asked, “When?”
