Chapter 48: The Ghost Within

"Are you sure this new batch of perfume is non-toxic?"

In the inner hall of the Yilin Inn, Lin Fan and Chen Laosan were sitting in front of the coffee table, and the two bigwigs of the perfume shop were discussing the sudden incident of perfume poisoning.

Chen Laosan patted his chest and said, "I've tried them all, and they're all normal."

Lin Fan took a sip of tea lightly, and was silent for a long time before saying, "It seems that there is no problem with the raw materials, this poison was put in before bottling...... But who would be so vicious as to put us to death? ”

Lin Fan played with the teacup and fell into contemplation again, Chen Laosan also frowned and meditated, and thought for a while and said: "Could it be that a peer is going to come to us together, before the perfume came out, it has always been a spice as incense, will it be ......?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I used to suspect this, thinking that those women were sent by their peers to make trouble, but now it seems that they are not ......."

Chen Laosan interrupted: "I think it is also possible that my peers called those women here, spent some money, put poison into the perfume, and then went to the perfume shop in batches to make trouble."

Lin Fan rubbed his eyebrows and asked Chen Laosan lightly: "Then do you think that black dog was also deliberately sent by his peers to be an experiment?"

Chen Laosan thought about it for a while, and said very sonorously, Lin Fan was silent disapprovingly, leaning lazily on the cushion, closing his eyes and pondering, and rehashing the recent things in his mind.

After a while, he opened his eyes and asked Chen Laosan, "Do you still have this batch of perfume left over from your pharmacy?"

Chen Laosan suddenly understood something, his eyes showed surprise, he patted his thigh and immediately got up and rushed out, it didn't take long for him to come back, and as soon as he came in, he said happily to Lin Fan: "Those perfumes are also poisonous, it seems that they were really poisoned before bottling, not by peers."

Lin Fan frowned and said, "It's impossible for my peers to poison us before bottling, could it be ......?"

"There's an inner ghost!"

Lin Fan and Chen Laosan almost thought of this problem, the two of them spoke at the same time, Chen Laosan thought for a while and said: "Could it be Huolin'er and them, I feel that they are always unreliable, will they be bought by their peers for profit, do you know that they used to be beggars and were poor."

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Impossible, I don't think Huo Lin'er would do such a thing, I think it's ...... The five new recruits have been suspicious recently. ”

Chen Laosan was puzzled: "They are all honest and honest people in the neighborhood, how can they dare to do such a thing?"

Lin Fan didn't answer, but asked, "Who is on night duty lately?"

"The five newly recruited people take turns to be on duty for the night."

"They don't dare to do it during the day, presumably at night...... Detain these people first, don't let them get close to the perfume shop anymore, and ask them one by one, be sure to ask who wants to do this, this evil breath can't just be swallowed. ”

In fact, Lin Fan knows better in his heart that he has not made any enemies in this world, if there are really enemies, one is the relatives of the Wang family, they want to destroy their jobs if they can't track and kill them, and the other is that they are peers, and their business was robbed by themselves, so they secretly sent someone to frame them...... Lin Fan prefers the latter possibility, because he still has a chance to retaliate against the latter, as for the former, he really doesn't know what to use to confront others.

Big Ear didn't know if he was secretly protecting himself, Lin Fan didn't care, and he and Chen Laosan took a carriage to Yongyang Fang, and before they stepped into Yongyang Fang, they saw green smoke rising from the sky above Yongyang Fang.

The two of them accelerated their progress in fright, and when they arrived at the perfume shop, a sultry wind came to their faces, and the side of the perfume shop was already scorched, and green smoke was coming out of here, and there was still a little ember fire burning, Huo Lin'er and others were still desperately fetching water to put out the fire.

Lin Fan and Chen Laosan jumped out of the carriage in shock and joined in the firefight, and did not stop until the last bit of flame was extinguished.

Looking at the corner that was burned, Lin Fan was secretly glad that he had not burned the entire perfume shop, and only then did he turn around and glance at the gray-faced handymen, but found that there were two missing.

I called Huo Lin'er over to inquire and found out that the perfume shop really had an inner ghost, and this fire was put by the two escaped miscellaneous servants, these two people had dark skin and strong bodies, Lin Fan used to value them very much, thinking that they would be important people in the perfume shop in the future, but I didn't expect these two to impress him more deeply, but the two who were more optimistic were internal ghosts, if it wasn't for Huo Lin'er to find out in time, this perfume shop might have to be put into fire.

After Chen Laosan knew that the people he recruited turned out to be two evil wolves, he scolded and scolded the two of them, and at the same time blamed himself.

When Lin Fan was silently thinking about how to catch the two people who escaped, maybe God had mercy on him, he thought about those two people in his heart, and the two inner ghosts staggered out of the alley next to the door of the perfume shop.

After Da Er followed from behind, Lin Fan knew that it was not God who had mercy on him, it was the credit of Da Er.

These two people seem to be an antidote, as soon as they see them, Chen Laosan's scolding and scolding will be fine, and when he calms down, he turns into a wave of resentment and pounces on the two of them......

Lin Fan was still thinking about which enemy sent these two people, and still thinking about which possibility was more likely, when suddenly a figure flew out, Lin Fan wondered, when did Chen Laosan have so much strength to actually throw out the tall inner ghost.

It wasn't until he saw the black shadow clearly that Lin Fan knew that he was thinking too much, the black shadow was none other than Chen Laosan himself, but fortunately, Da Er caught it in time, so he didn't suffer any harm.

Chen Laosan looked at the two people not far away in astonishment, he really didn't expect that the two people he recruited would have such skills, he was scared and sweaty, and he was silent in an instant, and he didn't dare to take out a dirty word again.

Also stunned were Lin Fan, Huo Lin'er and others, but in addition to being stunned, Lin Fan could be sure of one thing, that is, these two people were not sent by their peers to frame him, they should be relatives of the Wang family, they couldn't kill themselves, so they wanted to smash their jobs.

He still wanted further confirmation, so he walked up to Big Ear and asked softly, "Can you find out the origin of these two people?"

"They don't want to say it yet, but I always have a way to get them to speak, and I vaguely feel that these two people are not simple, and they should be related to the person who wants to harm you."

"Where do you want to take them?"

"Dali Temple."

"And when are you coming back?"

The big-eared fox glanced up and down at Lin Fan suspiciously, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm worried that someone else is trying to harm me."

"If you're so afraid of death, you shouldn't have done that in the first place." Big Ear glanced at it with disdain, and walked away with the two inner ghosts, and when he walked to the intersection of the alley, he didn't reply: "Go and go back."

Lin Fan asked again how long it would take to go back, but Da Er no longer cared about him, he still had a lot of things to do, and he had to report the matter to the emperor before sending the two to Dali Temple for interrogation.

It was late at night, there were still fireworks in Taiji Palace, in the corridor outside the Ganlu Hall of Taiji Palace, a little eunuch hurriedly came to the door of the palace with a small box, knocked on the door gently, and soon, the figure of the pillar appeared at the door, after listening to the little eunuch's report, he did not enter it, and the little eunuch gently closed the door.

In the Ganlu Palace, the pillar took out a gorgeous silk cloth in the box, held it in front of Boss Li, who was immersed in reading, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the results have come out."

"Read."

The pillar glanced at the words on the cloth knowingly and put it away, and then reported to Boss Li: "Back to Your Majesty, there are five people on trial in Dali Temple, two people at the water source of the well in Yeting Palace, two people were arrested in the perfume shop by Da Er, and one person was subdued by Da Er and sent to Dali Temple together."

Only four of the five people told the truth, the case of the poisoning of the well water in the Yeting Palace was indeed committed by the sneaky two people who were captured in the barren mountain range, and the poisoning of Lin Fan's perfume was indeed the two people who were arrested, and they both confessed to what they had done.

Only one person strongly resisted, just arrived at the door of Dali Temple to bite his tongue and commit suicide, from the mouth of the four to know, they benefited from Xiangzhou a person, their description and Wang Renshou's eldest son Wang De is similar, Dali Temple sent people to draw the portraits of Wang Renshou's three sons, all four of them believe that it is indeed Wang Deqi.

As for where Wang De is in Xiangzhou now, they don't know. ”

Boss Li nodded with satisfaction, put down the scroll in his hand, rubbed his somewhat sleepy eyebrows, and then lazily leaned back on the soft chair and closed his eyes, and was silent for a while before he said slowly: "This son is ruthless, he can't kill Lin Fan, and he knows what to do to me, so he wants to poison me?" Hum! It's a little too simple.

If this son is not removed, it will be difficult to vent my anger, and it will be ...... at this moment Dali Temple should be on the way to chase and kill, and there is no way to live...... Do you have to make a decree before you act? ”

The pillar bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the people of Dali Temple are already on the way, and the four people captured have also been killed."

"Good, sleep."
