Chapter 683

The first thing Duan Qingyao did after regaining her appearance was naturally to find a job as soon as possible.

She was already short of money, and after half a month, her wallet was even more depleted.

If we continue to sit back and make nothing happen, it will really be difficult to move forward.

While walking on the street, she was looking around for recruitment notices when she suddenly heard a noise.

"Hey, my stomach hurts! I was fine just now, but I ate your food, so my stomach hurts! You are trying to kill someone for money!"

The man in gray with his back to her pointed at the store and cursed.

"What nonsense are you talking about? My pub has been open on Changting Street for decades and nothing has happened. But when you show up, you complain of stomachache! I think you are deliberately blackmailing me!"

Why does this voice sound so familiar?

Duan Qingyao couldn't help but stop and take a closer look, and found that she had unknowingly walked to the restaurant where she was looking for a job last time.

But now, there are three scratches on the face of the person who is speaking, which are just like the marks left by Snowball.

"I'm blackmailing? It's obviously because the stuff in your store is dirty!"

Awesome website m.

xgeilwx.

Duan Qingyao, who originally had no intention of joining in the fun, was about to leave. When she glanced out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the speaker's face was blue and his lips were white, as if he was poisoned.

" He didn't lie, he was indeed poisoned!"

Duan Qingyao has something to say.

"Nonsense! The ingredients in our store are all fresh ingredients bought at the market in the morning. They have been washed many times. How could they be poisonous? I know, you two must be in the same group! You want to sing the oboe to lie to me.

I don’t have any money at all!”

The boss insists that there is absolutely nothing wrong with their food. What they fear most when opening their business is being splashed with dirty water!

"I don't believe it today. Is there no room for reasoning in this world? Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Since you said you were poisoned, let's go to the Yamen to reason!"

Seeing the customers in the store leaving one after another, the boss became anxious.

He just reached out and pushed the man in gray, and the man fell down lightly.

"Look at it, let's just say he is blackmailing me on purpose. He's afraid of being like this when he goes to see the official!"

The shop owner was so proud that in order to prove what he said, he squatted down and turned over the diners' bodies.

Originally, he was facing the loess, so no one could see the expression on his face. Now, when the store owner turned his body over, all he could see was that he was pale and foaming at the mouth.

Even if it's acting, it can't be so realistic, right?

"Dead people!"

I don't know who screamed in surprise, and the crowd suddenly seemed to explode, pointing at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper, who was originally confident, was dumbfounded when he saw this scene!

He didn't do anything!

"Give it, give it!"

With human life at stake, Duan Qingyao walked through the crowd without hesitation and knelt on one knee beside the poisoned person.

"What exactly did you do to him?"

Duan Qingyao didn't have a good impression of this shopkeeper at all.

Not to mention that the diners were actually poisoned after eating here, Duan Qingyao would believe anyone who said that the shopkeeper was an unscrupulous businessman.

"I, I didn't do anything!"

The shopkeeper felt that he was really unjust. He liked money and was greedy for small gains, but even if he had the guts to do such things as poisoning people and seeking money and killing, he wouldn't dare to do it!

"Human life is at stake, you'd better think clearly before answering!"

It would be much simpler if we knew what kind of poison was in the diners.

The key is, now that the medicine box is not around, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.

When such a big thing happened, the shopkeeper was already in a panic.

"Even if you ask me a hundred or a thousand times, it's still the same! I'm just a businessman. It's true that I like money, but I also know that killing people requires life. How could I do such a thing?"

The shopkeeper is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Why is it that no one wants to believe him when he tells the truth?

It was time to get ready, and Duan Qingyao could clearly feel that the diners' pulse was getting weaker and weaker.

But at this time, the shopkeeper couldn't give me any useful information.

"Has this guest's meal been collected?"

Since the shopkeeper couldn't give her the answer, she had to find the answer herself.

Time is life, Duan Qingyao said as she stood up.

"Not yet! Not yet! It's right there!"

The shopkeeper pointed to a table with several plates by the window.

Why did he forget to check if there was any poison in the food? Wouldn't he know what was going on?

Duan Qingyao's words suddenly lit up the shopkeeper. In order to prove his innocence, he ran towards the table and shouted to the waiter: "Hurry and get the silver needle from under the cabinet!"

There are all kinds of customers in the tavern. If you meet a noble and life-saving guest, you will ask to try the dishes one by one, so the Silver Needle shop always has them on hand.

Not only Duan Qingyao followed, but also a swarm of people watching the excitement followed.

There are five dishes and one soup on the table.

Steamed sea bass, boiled shrimps, stir-fried meat with spring bamboo shoots, stir-fried vegetables, scrambled eggs with green onions, and a chicken soup.

Everyone stretched their heads and stared at the shining silver needle.

I saw the shopkeeper put it into the soup first, waited for three seconds, and when he took it out, the silver needle was as clean as new!

The shopkeeper deliberately raised the silver needle high so that the onlookers could see it clearly!

"The silver needle has not changed color, which means there is no poison in the soup!"

"Who knows? Aren't there a few more dishes on the table? It doesn't mean anything if there's no poison in the soup!"

Hearing the discussion among the melon-eaters, the shopkeeper sweated silently in his heart!

But, in fact, he just doesn’t have it!

He is not afraid of slanting shadows. In the end, only facts can prove his innocence.

"Don't worry, everyone, I'll try the following dishes right now!"

How long has it been? The shopkeeper actually only cares about his innocence. Human life is at stake. Doesn’t he know?

Duan Qingyao's sharp eyes swept around the dining table, trying to find any clues on the table.

Suddenly, her sharp eyes saw a small black dot on the corner of the table.

"What's this?"

As if she had discovered a new world, Duan Qingyao stepped forward in surprise and picked up the little black dot.

"It's just watermelon seeds. What's so weird about that?"

The shopkeeper was startled and thought he had discovered some new world.

"You won't suspect that I poisoned this watermelon, right? He brought this watermelon himself! Our store is a tavern, but we don't sell fruit. Everyone knows that, right?"

The people watching nodded their heads. This shop has been open on this street for so many years. Everyone knows what they sell!

"I seem to know what poisoned him!"
