Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons
Chapter 82 The truth comes out
The officer then ordered his servant to fetch the Tianxiandan sold by Baicaotang for comparison. The two products looked identical and the evidence was irrefutable. In addition, other people confirmed the true relationship between the young man and his mother. This forced the officer to take action and temporarily closed Baicaotang, intending to bring back relevant personnel for further investigation.
At this moment, Zhou Rong felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. The despair and worry in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
He knew that once involved in official disputes, even if he was eventually cleared of the charges, Baicaotang's reputation would suffer an irreversible blow.
If the investigation results are not released in time, the pharmacy may face the fate of indefinite closure, with disastrous consequences.
Just when Zhou Rong was completely desperate, Zhang Laoer, who had been watching the situation develop quietly, slowly spoke up and interrupted the situation that was about to reach a stalemate: "My fellow officers, please be patient. Although I dare not claim to be a superb doctor, I still have some insights into the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Let me examine the cause of the old lady's death to avoid wrongly accusing innocent people."
People's eyes followed the sound and focused on the man in coarse cloth who walked out of the crowd.
Although he was thin, his face revealed an extraordinary temperament. His every move showed the calmness and professionalism of a doctor, and there was a faint aroma of herbs lingering around him.
Seeing this, the officers were convinced that Zhang Laoer was no ordinary person, and approved his request without much hesitation.
Seeing that Zhang Laoer was not very old, the young man secretly breathed a sigh of relief and did not object.
Zhang Laoer understood the subtle psychological changes of the young man, but did not point it out. He just bent down with a serious face and carefully examined the old man's body.
Not far away, the little girl with worry on her tender face clenched her tiny fists tightly, as if this could convey her strength and courage to her father far away.
In this bustling crowd, Zhang Laoer took advantage of the perfect opportunity of the autopsy to quietly demonstrate his secret skills.
He gently stretched out a finger and quickly and accurately drew a complex and mysterious pattern in the air.
At the moment the pattern took shape, a barely perceptible glimmer flashed by, and then as if it had its own will, it silently followed Zhang Laoer's thoughts and penetrated into the body of the young deceased.
All these subtle changes did not cause any ripples in the crowd. It was not until Zhang Laoer was sure that the mysterious pattern was firmly attached to it that he slowly straightened his back, clapped his hands gently, looked at Zhou Rong meaningfully, and said with a barely perceptible smile: "I can't see anything unusual. I'm afraid the problem really lies in the so-called Heavenly Immortal Pill. Am I right?"
Zhang Laoer's words were not only directed at the young man Zhou Rong in front of him, but more like a declaration to everyone present.
However, before Zhou Rong's eyes were completely filled with disappointment, a surprising turn of events abruptly broke the dullness of the scene.
The old mother, who was crying and grief-stricken just now, suddenly raised her head and shouted almost hoarsely: "No! The elixir is not poisonous. My mother accidentally ate the poison I brought back from outside, which led to her death!"
This sudden confession caused the crowd of onlookers to fall into silence.
Even the police officers specially invited to solve the case couldn't help but widen their eyes, with shock and disbelief on their faces, staring at the burly man who looked rough but was actually panicking at the moment.
After the sturdy man confessed the truth, he seemed to be shocked by his own words. He unconsciously covered his mouth with his hands, looking extremely stunned.
Zhang Laoer immediately pressed on and asked, "Why did you do such a cruel thing to your mother?"
This question made his hand covering his mouth no longer able to conceal his feelings, and he blurted out the words involuntarily: "I really didn't harm my mother! Her condition was already very serious, and she voluntarily took the poison and then swallowed the tranquilizing pills just to help me get the twenty taels of silver promised by Anyuantang, so that I would have the opportunity to put the blame on Baicaotang in exchange for the life-saving silver!"
These words once again caused an uproar in the crowd, and the sturdy man's face instantly turned as pale as the dead person on the ground.
At this moment, he seemed to have forgotten the love between mother and son, and only wanted to escape from this place of trouble. So he turned around and tried to squeeze through the crowd to escape from all the chaos.
However, the officers were on guard. Seeing the strong man trying to escape, a smart officer rushed forward and grabbed him by the collar, making him unable to move.
Faced with an inescapable reality, the strong man quickly turned to the officer to beg for mercy: "Sir, please spare my life, this is really not my idea! It was Steward Song of Anyuan Hall who instigated me to do this, I am just a pawn following orders! I came here today with a few idle vagrants, they were also bribed for money to confuse right and wrong and slander the reputation of Baicao Hall!"
As soon as he finished his confession, a few people in the crowd tried to sneak away in the chaos.
Fortunately, the officers were not fighting alone. After their companions noticed these small movements, they quickly pulled out the knives they carried with them. With a few quick moves, they blocked those guys who tried to escape.
The sturdy man who witnessed all this had a look of relief on his face, and he hurriedly explained to the officer who had captured him, "You saw it with your own eyes, sir, and everything I said is true. It was indeed Anyuantang who ordered us to do this, and I was actually very resistant in my heart!"
By the end of his words, his eyes were filled with tears.
I originally thought that the plan was perfect. As long as I could successfully frame the young master of Baicaotang, the money that could change my fate would be within my grasp.
Who would have thought that at the critical moment, it was his own slip of the tongue that ruined this carefully planned plan!
The sturdy man's face was full of regret, anger and unwillingness intertwined on his rough features. His clenched fists trembled slightly, and he kept asking himself in his heart where he had gone wrong to bring about this unexpected disaster.
Zhang Laoer, who was regarded as unlucky by everyone, stood there calmly and just hooked his fingers slightly.
Suddenly, an imperceptible subtle force quietly overflowed from the strong man's body and floated back to Zhang Laoer's palm like a gossamer.
The little girl rubbed her big watery eyes with her chubby little hands, as if she was wondering if she was dazzled and whether the indescribable light just now really existed.
Just as Xiao Youniang tried to focus her eyes again to confirm her father's miraculous scene, Zhang Laoer had quietly turned around, picked up the little girl lightly, and said gently: "Let's go buy some new clothes, let's go!"
The Zhang family and their entourage disappeared silently into the crowd, leaving behind an uproar and countless inquiring gazes.
This undoubtedly made the people around more curious and excited, and they talked about it a lot.
