Chapter 44: Evidence
Qin Susu came back and slammed the chef's beard through the door. 【 】
"Beard!" When the proprietress saw the beard lying on the ground, she cried out. "It's you? Why would you poison and murder guests! As she spoke, the proprietress ran forward excitedly, grabbed him by the collar, and punched him hard, "You say, you say!" Where is our Yuelai Restaurant, are you sorry for you? Why do you want to harm us? Why ......"
The proprietress was already crying, and the whole person collapsed on the ground, hiding her face and crying.
Beard saw that the proprietress who was always high on weekdays was now so embarrassed, and his eyes were full of panic. "Hostess, believe me, it's really not me...... I...... I just took some laxatives, and I never thought about harming anyone......"
As soon as he heard the beard say laxatives, everyone's eyes looked at him.
The officials were the same, and walked forward directly, "Follow me, since you have the courage to kill, you must have the courage to admit your guilt!" ”
"No, I didn't, I really just took laxatives." The beard was still growling.
The guards ignored him.
Where is Qin Susu willing to follow him?
She captured this person, how could they arrest him again?
"Wait!" Qin Susu snorted coldly.
The group of guards stopped and turned their heads to look at Qin Susu, "What's the matter, is there something wrong with this son?" ”
"Knowing what I brought, why is it your turn to take it away?"
The guard who brought them in just now hadn't come back because he had just gone out in a hurry, so the rest of the guards didn't know their identities.
"Obstruct the government's affairs, come and arrest them together." The guard holding the chef's beard said coldly.
"Who dare?" Baili Cangming stepped forward, protected Qin Susu, and said.
Na Mingyue followed behind, and she was also a little anxious, she didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"Come on, this group of outsiders and Yuelai Restaurant poisoned and murdered the guests, and brought them all to the restaurant, waiting for the fate!"
After the order was issued, several officials rushed up in an instant, trying to take them away.
Baili Cangming's temper was relatively hot, and when he saw them attacking, he just fought back, and did not mean to show his identity.
"Okay, come here, get them up! It is really bold to obstruct the affairs of the government! A sharp voice rang out, and then several people rushed forward.
"No need to tie up, we'll go by ourselves." Baili Canglian said this sentence lightly, and as soon as this remark came out, several people were surprised.
"Master-" Qin Susu raised her head to look at Baili Canglian, but saw that Baili Canglian nodded at her.
Qin Susu secretly thought in his heart, Baili Canglian must have his own plans.
Turning his head, he looked at the Mingyue girl, "Mingyue girl, you stay here first." ”
Mingyue hesitantly glanced at them a few more times, and then nodded.
"Alright, follow me," the guard stepped forward and gave orders.
When the few people left, the little guard who had brought them in looked at everything in front of them in surprise.
"Girl, what about them?"
"They were all taken away by the officials." Mingyue sighed.
"What?" The little officer was slightly startled.
"What's wrong? Big brother, what's going on? ”
The little officer's face gradually turned a little pale, but he shook his head, "It's okay." Then he hurried away.
He had a hunch that something big was going to happen here.
Qinghe Town, in the government office, the county ordered Lord Wu to sit on the high platform.
"My lord, the prisoners have been brought." The head of the official said, and said what was going on in the restaurant just now.
Wu's big eyes swept below, but he saw that the three men were all standing, standing straight.
"Presumptuous, don't you kneel when you see this mansion? Come on, drag it out first, and hit fifty boards! ”
”
As soon as Lord Wu Liu's order came out, an official stepped forward in an instant.
The group of guards was about to touch them when Qin Susu raised his head, "You are such a big dog! "Her mission is to protect the safety of Baili Canglian!
Hearing someone talk about himself like this, Wu Mao was even more angry. "Boldly Diao Min, he is rude to this house! Go, hit the eighty board! ”
"Really? Are you sure you want to fight? Baili Cangming on the side suddenly raised his head and laughed. He smiled like a spring breeze, but there was a bit of coldness in his eyes. A pair of eyes looked at him with a smile like this.
Wu Mao was stunned for a while, why is he so familiar?
But for a moment, his eyes widened in shock. If memory serves, this ...... This should be Lord Ming!
On the other side, Baili Canglian also raised his head and looked at Wu Mao.
When he said goodbye to the other person, Wu Mao completely collapsed in his seat, and then crawled down with a roll.
"The Emperor...... The Emperor ......"
But seeing Wu Mao kneeling in front of them, he stretched out his hand and slapped him directly. "The minister is guilty, the emperor, you spare your life-"
The officials were completely dumbfounded, dare to love that it was the emperor who they captured today?!
One by one, they fell to their knees.
Baili Canglian stood with his hands in his hands, looked at everything in front of him lightly, and then said slowly, "Those who don't know are not guilty, that's it." ”
Hearing this, Wu Mao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, it's been delayed long enough, it's time to try this case?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Wu Mao responded vigorously.
Sitting back in his seat, Wu Mao took great pains to try the case.
"Tell me, what's going on." Wu Mao asked the people below seriously.
The proprietress told the story from beginning to end, and the chef just lowered his head and shook his head vigorously.
"I really just took laxatives, and it really didn't hurt anyone."
The proprietress just waited resentfully for the beard, her eyes full of disappointment.
"Your Majesty, look at this-since this beard has admitted that he has taken the medicine, then, this crime is condemned, right?" Wu Mao turned his head and looked at Baili Canglian as if flattering.
Qin Susu frowned.
"Didn't Lord Wu hear clearly? He said that he was given laxatives, and laxatives were just laxatives, so how could he kill people? ”
This beard looks like an honest man, and there's no reason to do that!
Qin Susu raised his head, but he could see that Wu Mao's eyes couldn't stop flickering, and in an instant, he seemed to understand something.
"So be it. Lord Wu, today, we are also tired, after this series of turmoil, the emperor and the prince are not small frightened, otherwise, we will continue to interrogate tomorrow, right? ”
When Wu Mao heard this, he immediately nodded in agreement.
He was worried about what would go wrong with the interrogation!
Baili Canglian and Baili Cangming are noncommittal. Since she let go and handed it over to Qin Susu, then she will handle all this!
Late at night, silent.
In the cell inside the yamen of Qinghe Town, there was a bit of turmoil.
"Eat." The yacha brought the food to the beard.
At this moment, his beard has become a little haggard, and he has not eaten for a whole day, so he wants to move his chopsticks as soon as he receives the meal.
But at this time, the guards guarding the door suddenly fell to the ground, and the chopsticks in the beard's hand were also knocked to the ground.
"You're not afraid of being poisonous?"
The beard raised his head, but he saw that there was another person standing in front of him who was following the emperor and the prince today.
Beard sighed, "Even if it's dead, I don't care." Although I don't really want to hurt people, but all this is really because of me, I'm sorry for the proprietress of the house, I'm sorry for the family, I'm sorry for Yuelai Restaurant-"
"Really? You don't care, but what about your boss? Do you really want her to carry the black pot for you? Qin Susu sneered. I can see that your boss lady is very good to you, but why are you doing this? ”
When Hu Zi heard this, he raised his head, and there was a little anxiety in his eyes.
"Really, I didn't really know it was poison, I just thought it was a laxative."
"You are the chef of Yuelai Restaurant, why do you take laxatives in your own restaurant?"
The beard laughed dryly, as if he had some kind of trouble.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, don't think about anything."
"Okay, I said." Hu Zi sighed and said, "Do you know the Fu Ji Restaurant opposite Yuelai Restaurant?" ”
Qin Susu nodded, had she seen it before, but at that time she was still wondering, these two restaurants are set up opposite the door, isn't this an obvious robbery of business?
Qin Susu suddenly understood something, raised his head suddenly, and asked, "You mean, this is the order of Fu Ji Restaurant?" ”
"Yes." The beard hung his head, and there was a look of remorse in his eyes. "My eighty-year-old mother was seriously ill and in dire need of money, and the owner of Fu Ji Restaurant came to me and said that if I put laxatives in my meals and ruin the reputation of Yue Lai Restaurant, then he would give me a lot of silver——"
The corners of Qin Susu's mouth lightly pulled out a mocking arc.
At this time, she knew that it was because of business competition!
Indeed, shopping malls are like battlefields, not only in previous lives, but also in this life.
"So, you really did something like that?"
The beard squatted down, holding his head tightly with his hands, his face full of remorse, "I'm confused, I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen to Yuelai Restaurant." ”
"It can be seen that you don't know either, in this way, you cooperate with me, if I am satisfied, when the time comes, I will have a way to exempt you from the most."
"Really?" Beard looked up in surprise, but for a moment, the light on his face dimmed, and he muttered softly, "It's impossible—I've killed someone—I've killed someone—"
Qin Susu smiled lightly.
"I know you didn't mean it, don't worry, when the time comes, at least your crime will be mitigated, as long as you can provide us with strong evidence."
"Okay, I have." Hu Zi thought for a moment, then took out a piece of paper that had been crumpled from his arms and handed it to Qin Susu.
Qin Susu took the paper, just glanced at it, and then narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You'll help me, won't you?" Beard asked uneasily.
Qin Susu nodded and said with a smile, "It's okay, tomorrow, all this will come to light." ”
