Xiao Feng and Nie Longjiao exchanged glances upon seeing this scene, both noticing the surprise in each other's eyes.
Zhao Ce handed one bottle after another of milk tea to the wealthy people in the courtyard. So refused, but his enthusiasm was hard to resist, forcing them to accept.
Nie Longjiao walked over and asked, "Did you go buy milk tea?"
"Yeah, they gave us money and things, so we have to give sothing in return, right?" Zhao Ce replied, then took a bottle of milk tea from a thermos box, handed it to Nie Longjiao, and pointed at Xiao Feng, indicating who the milk tea was for.
A strange look crossed Nie Longjiao's eyes, but she still took the milk tea and walked to Xiao Feng, handing it over, muttering to herself, "He's like a different person."
Xiao Feng didn't respond to her muttering, took the milk tea in hand, shook it up, opened the cap, observed the color, and then held it to his nose to sll it.
The sll of milk was strong, but it seed a bit pungent.
Just then, a woman in the crowd suddenly staggered, clutching her forehead, nearly collapsing to the ground, fortunately caught by soone nearby.
"Bang!"
The milk tea fell to the ground, spilling over a large area.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, just feeling dizzy, ugh..."
The woman being held up suddenly began to vomit, and after finishing, she didn't even have ti to catch her breath before she started convulsing, rolling her eyes, with foam spewing from her mouth.
The crowd was like a boiling pot, everyone surrounded the woman but then stepped back, all a little at a loss.
Xiao Feng reacted quickly, stood on a stone table and asked, "Who else drank the milk tea?"
"I... I drank it," Yao Qianxue weakly raised her hand.
Just after raising her hand, she suddenly felt like she was drunk, swaying in place, feeling the world spinning and her stomach churning.
Xiao Feng jumped to her side, caught her around the waist, and then took out a small porcelain bottle with one hand, bit open the stopper, poured out a white pill, and stuffed it into Yao Qianxue's mouth.
"Swallow it, don't vomit!" Xiao Feng ordered in a commanding tone.
Yao Qianxue's expression was pained, but she managed to swallow the pill, and gradually her dizziness faded, and she no longer felt the uncontrollable urge to vomit.
"Soone else fainted over here!"
"There's another one over here!"
"Co on, don't scare !"
Cries echoed throughout the courtyard.
Everyone holding milk tea hurriedly threw it away, their eyes filled with fear and regret.
Thank goodness I didn't drink!
Through the gaps in the crowd, Xiao Feng saw a hint of ruthlessness and a touch of vengeful satisfaction in Zhao Ce's eyes.
He imdiately understood, this poison could be fatal, and action was needed promptly.
Faced with this widespread outbreak, Xiao Feng didn't rush around like a firefighter, but instead raised his hand above his head and decisively shouted, "Don't panic, pass the pills in my hand to feed the poisoned people."
Having said that, he poured all the pills from the porcelain bottle into his hand, distributed them to the people around him, who then passed them on one by one to the poisoned ones.
anwhile, he rushed directly to the woman who first showed poisoning symptoms, stuffing a pill into her mouth while she still had a shred of consciousness.
The pills, naturally, ca from Sun Shijie, prepared long before when they were in Jiuyou Town.
Xiao Feng always carried them to prevent any unexpected situations, and didn't expect they would co in handy!
"Where did you buy this milk tea?"
By now, soone had already confronted Zhao Ce, yet no one suspected he had tampered with the milk tea.
Zhao Ce put on a panicked expression: "Just from the milk tea shop at the entrance of the farrs' market."
Xiao Feng slowly stood up, his eyes on Zhao Ce filled with coldness.
He could almost guess by intuition, though Zhao Ce appeared flustered on the surface, he was inwardly quite composed.
Go buy milk tea at the shop, and even if the drinkers die, the police would first investigate the shop.
If guessed correctly, it wasn't Zhao Ce tampering each cup, but rather adding sothing directly at the source of the raw materials at the shop.
In doing so, it results in misfortune for the milk tea shop and the poisoned victims, while Zhao Ce can escape scot-free.
Even taking it as unforeseeable negligent cri, the penalty wouldn't be severe.
"Let's go find that shop!" soone took the lead in shouting.
The other people joined in vigorously, shouting to tag along.
Xiao Feng raised his hand to stop them: "Cracking the case is a police matter. There's a police station just a street away, let them investigate."
"So... we just let ourselves be poisoned?" one person who drank the milk tea said, sounding unsatisfied.
This dissatisfaction was not only because of being poisoned but mainly due to the public humiliation, unable to regain lost face.
Xiao Feng pointed to the milk tea on the ground: "Do you know what's in this?
Even if you manage to get a professional institution to test it, how do you know who added it?
Even if you find out who did it, can you kill them?"
These three questions left the person speechless.
Xiao Feng took a deep breath and said: "So, it all circles back to the police. It's better to hand it over to them from the start."
Saying this, he started calling the police.
While Xiao Feng made the call, Nie Longjiao pulled Zhao Ce aside.
Not only Xiao Feng noticed Zhao Ce's change in expression; she also observed his unusual deanor.
"Did you tamper with it?" Nie Longjiao asked.
"Longjiao, why would you think that?" Zhao Ce's face changed, saying: "We've been together so long, don't you know what kind of person I am?
I don't even dare kill a chicken, let alone poison soone."
Nie Longjiao said sternly, "Considering how long we've worked together, I'm warning you one last ti.
If it's you, then admit it!
Once the police investigation concludes, jail awaits you."
"It truly isn't !" Zhao Ce said urgently.
Nie Longjiao's eyes were filled with disappointnt, shaking her head: "Whether it's you or not, I must tell you, you should leave."
"Leave?" Zhao Ce said, puzzled: "Where should I go?"
"Leave the welfare center."
"Why?!" Zhao Ce grabbed Nie Longjiao's shoulder angrily: "Give a reason!"
"Because... I'm the director of the welfare center, everything here is decided by ," Nie Longjiao said emotionlessly.
Zhao Ce said excitedly: "That's nonsense. The real reason you're driving away is because of that pretty boy, isn't it?"
Finishing his sentence, he glared at Xiao Feng with hatred, wishing he could eat him alive.
"It's got nothing to do with him. It's just that I find you're no longer suitable to stay at the welfare center," Nie Longjiao calmly said: "Leave here, you can find a better job, higher salary, and enjoy better benefits."
"I don't want those, I don't want any of it. I just want you!" Zhao Ce shouted angrily: "I just want you!"
Nie Longjiao took a step back and said: "Pack your things and leave." Then she turned around.
But she didn't notice Zhao Ce's gaze turning sinister, his expression increasingly vicious and terrifying!
