Chapter 387 Finding the Murderer
"Hmm, it smells really good. Let me try it and see if it tastes good?" Xixi was just about to drink the soup.
At this time, Jiang Nuan just came back from the bathroom.
As soon as she pushed the door open, her sensitive nose moved slightly, and the strange smell in the air instantly made her face change.
And the source of the strange smell...
When she saw the soup spoon in her daughter's hand, her hair almost exploded.
"Xixi, you can't drink it!" Jiang Nuan ran to her daughter in fear and snatched the spoon from her hand.
"Xixi, tell mom quickly, how much have you drunk?" Jiang Nuan stared at her daughter in panic.
Her panicked voice startled the three people in the box.
Xixi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "My mom came back before I could finish my drink."
"Mom, why can't I have soup?"
Huo Qiming and Lu Ting saw Jiang Nuan's serious expression and had a bad feeling in their hearts.
"What's wrong, Nuannuan? Is there something wrong with the soup?"
Jiang Nuan felt relieved when she heard that her daughter hadn't finished drinking it yet.
"This soup is poisonous!" Jiang Nuan's face looked very ugly.
"What! It's poisonous!" Huo Qiming and Lu Ting stood up in shock.
"how come?"
"Who is so vicious as to poison the soup? I'm going to find the owner of the store. Tingting, you report it to the police immediately."
Lu Ting nodded, "Go quickly and find out who poisoned the soup."
Jiang Nuan hugged her daughter in fear. Fortunately, she came back in time. If she had been a step later...
……
In another private room, Rosen and Annie were having a disagreement. Just as they were feeling irritated, they heard hurried footsteps in the corridor outside...
Then, a familiar voice came into my ears.
"Boss, the soup we ordered from your restaurant was poisoned. I hope you can get to the bottom of this matter and give me a satisfactory answer.
My niece almost drank the soup just now. If my sister hadn't found it in time after going to the bathroom, something terrible would have happened now." Huo Qiming's voice was filled with uncontrollable anger.
The restaurant owner apologized repeatedly, "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry!
I don't know why the soup you ordered was poisoned?
But I promise that the employees in my store would never do such a thing.
The employees I recruit have all undergone rigorous training, so there may be some misunderstanding.
Don't worry, I will never shirk my responsibilities if something happens in my store, but please give me some time to investigate."
Rosen was startled when he heard Huo Qiming's voice.
His niece!
The soup was poisoned!
He thought of the child who called Huo Qiming "uncle" in the bridal shop during the day.
"is her!"
When Rosen heard that the child was almost poisoned, for some reason, panic surged in his heart. He stood up and walked out of the box without thinking.
"Rosen, what are you doing?" Annie hurriedly grabbed his clothes. "I haven't even finished my meal yet. You promised to accompany me."
Thinking of that lovely little girl, Rosen's eyes flashed with anxiety. He brushed away Annie's hand and said, "Something happened outside. I'll go check it out."
"No, I don't want to be alone." Anne grabbed Rosen's clothes again, putting on a willful look on her face, but feeling a little anxious in her heart.
That was Huo Qiming's voice just now.
Poison!
She knew without a second's hesitation that the man had taken action.
But how could he be so stupid to be discovered so quickly?
Rosen ignored Annie's willfulness and brushed her hand away again. "Didn't you hear what happened? Are you still in the mood to eat?"
Anne's hand was brushed away again. She stood up unwillingly to stop Rosen, but he pulled her away again.
"Annie, there's a limit to being unreasonable."
"Don't test my patience." His voice was cold and hard, and his dark and cold eyes made Annie dare not do it again.
……
In Jiang Nuan's box.
The restaurant owner didn't know if the soup was really poisonous. "Mr. Huo, I'm not a doctor, so I can't confirm whether the soup is really poisonous, but since you say it is poisonous, I will take the soup for testing.
I will also question everyone who has come into contact with this dish.
As long as the soup is found to be poisonous, no matter who made it, I will not tolerate it and will cooperate with the police investigation."
Jiang Nuan hugged her daughter and snorted coldly, "It will take forever for you to get it tested.
I can show you right now whether there is poison in the soup or not."
Jiang Nuan's face was very cold. Thinking that her daughter almost met with an accident, she was eager to find out the murderer.
In front of the boss, she took out a silver needle and put it into the soup. When she took the needle out, it had turned completely black.
"This...how is this possible?"
The boss shook his head in panic, "Boss Huo, Boss Jiang.
There must be a misunderstanding here. No one in my shop would poison the soup."
When Rosen came in, he saw Jiang Nuan holding the child. The little girl was biting her fingers, blinking her big eyes, and staying obediently in Jiang Nuan's arms, without any fear on her face.
Lu Ting called the police, and the police arrived quickly and surrounded the entire restaurant.
The incident became a big deal and the restaurant was forced to close.
Afterwards, all employees in the store who had come into contact with the pigeon soup today were detained and interrogated.
When everyone heard that the guest's soup was poisoned, they all shook their heads and denied any involvement, saying that they had not done anything wrong.
The waiter who served Jiang Nuan and the others was the most frightened.
He was the one who served the soup, so regardless of whether he poisoned it or not, he is the most suspicious.
In order to shirk responsibility, other employees in the store pointed the finger at him.
He panicked and assured me that he really hadn't poisoned anyone.
"Boss, I really didn't poison you.
I have no grudge against the guests, so why should I poison them?
It really wasn't me who did it. I've been working in this shop for a few years and have always been dedicated to my work. You have to believe me."
The boss was in a dilemma. "Xiao Lin, it's not that I don't trust you. The problem is that the soup is really poisonous, and you are the last one to handle the pigeon soup.
The chef always tastes the pigeon soup before serving it.
If the chef poisoned him, he would die too.
Besides, there are surveillance cameras in the kitchen, so no one dares to do anything.
But the soup left the kitchen because you were the one who took it. There's no surveillance in the stairwell. Even if I know you're innocent, I don't have any evidence to prove your innocence."
The waiter was so scared that he almost cried, "But I really didn't poison it! I was wrongly accused.
Boss, you must save me, I didn't poison the guests!"
Seeing that the waiter didn't seem to be lying, Jiang Nuan asked, "Think carefully, when you were serving the dish, was the soup touched by anyone?"
If the waiter dared to lie, she could directly use her soul-stealing skills to manipulate him and get the truth out of him, but things hadn't reached that point yet and she didn't want to reveal that she knew soul-stealing skills.
In these three years, she has learned all of the old man's skills.
When Jiang Nuan reminded him, the waiter seemed to have thought of something.
He excitedly said, "I know what the problem is."
Public Security, "Tell me, what did you think of?"
Waiter, "I suddenly remembered that I was serving pigeon soup to a customer and was bumped into by someone just as I was going up the stairs..."
The waiter anxiously told the story, "I was really bumped by a customer.
I was so scared at the time that I was glad the soup didn't spill.
I was in a hurry to serve the guests and didn't pay any attention to that little incident.
If anything was done to Tang Zhen, it was definitely at that time."
Huo Qiming asked hurriedly, "Do you still remember what that person looked like?"
