Chapter 575 Murder
So, this was a selective, purposeful and planned intentional poisoning case.
The person who poisons knows that the person he wants to poison to death is a person who likes heavy food. He is the person who will add coriander and minced ginger and garlic to eat the soy beef dish directly after it is served.
Knowing this, as long as you ask among the guests who has such eating habits and check their interpersonal network, you should be able to find out who is the poisoner behind the scenes.
But Li Sanniang and Qiu Xiang, who was holding Lu Zhuer, looked at each other. They both understood that whether this person can be found depends on whether the Song family wants to make this matter a big deal.
However, there is a high probability that the Song family just wants to get through this crisis quietly, and it is better to be able to secretly find out who this person is.
What is more likely is that the Song family did not care and just beat everyone in the kitchen who had access to these three seasoning vegetables to death, and that was the end of the matter.
However, Li Sanniang felt that a head lady like Mrs. Song would not do such a thing. It was also possible that she would investigate secretly and go to Jingzhao Mansion. She would always put this behind the scenes of causing trouble for the Song family. It's not over until the poisoner is caught.
While Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang were making eye contact, someone else came in at the door of the kitchen yard.
Mrs. Song and another woman who looked like the head of the Song family. Li Sanniang guessed that she was the eldest wife of the Song family. Song Dalang (Song Pearl’s brother) led a group of people wearing round collar robes. The policeman holding a knife came in.
"Mrs. Song actually reported herself to the police right now?"
This was the question in Li Sanniang's eyes. Qiuxiang nodded to Li Sanniang. The two stepped aside and watched Mrs. Song taking Song Pearl with the policemen. Mrs. Song and Dalang Song explained the whole story.
Of course, Li Sanniang was mentioned. Li Sanniang came forward to see the gift, and then testified and ordered the poisoned dishes that she had found.
“That’s it. I’ve looked at the other dishes and there’s nothing wrong with them. There’s no food incompatibility and there’s no poison in them.
The ingredients for this dish, chopped The coriander and minced ginger and garlic are each mixed with a colorless but bitter poison, but the bitterness should be masked by the taste of coriander and ginger and garlic
Eating these two together is what makes Qingya twitch. "
The leading catcher bowed his hands to Li Sanniang and said, "Thank you so much to the female doctor. I'd like to trouble the female doctor to come back to Jingzhao Mansion with us after the banquet. I have to ask questions." "
Li Sanniang naturally did not refuse. When Mrs. Song asked her to help find a problem with the dishes, she thought of this problem.
"Since the problem has been found, let's leave it as it is. Let's serve the food and see if the poisoner will take action on the spot when he sees that his poison has no effect. ”
Li Sanniang didn’t bother to wonder why the head catcher of Jingzhao Mansion said such words?
Li Sanniang didn't even think about what kind of agreement had been reached between the Song family and Jingzhao Mansion, but she was actually willing to let the banquet go on as usual?
Of course, Li Sanniang has nothing to do with her.
Li Sanniang couldn't hear what happened next, so Mrs. Song arranged for Song Pearl to send her to the banquet again.
When Li Sanniang returned to the pavilion in the garden with Lu Zhuer and Qiuxiang, only Sister Gao and Gao Yahui were waiting for her.
“Oh, Dr. Li, you are back.
Come on, Madam Qian has already taken Qian Xiaolang to the banquet. I already know our seats. Let’s go quickly so we can catch up with the banquet. "How could Song Pearl leave like this?
Song Pearl took the girl and led Li Sanniang and the others to take a shortcut to the large hall of the Song family. She watched Li Sanniang and the others sit down. After that, she bowed and left.
Li Sanniang held Lu Zhuer in her arms, took the drink poured by Qiu Xiang, and fed Lu Zhuer a drink. She watched Lu Zhuer drink a whole glass before pouring it again. I ordered a cup for myself.
"Sister, what did Madam Song do to you?
My sister-in-law and I have been waiting for a long time without seeing you. If a little girl hadn't come over and told us that you would be back in a while, my sister-in-law and I might not have been able to do it."
"Yahui! "
Gao Yahui snorted a little glumly at the suppression from Sister Gao, but she did not continue to ask Li Sanniang.
Although the table where Li Sanniang and Sister Gao were sitting was not There were ten people, including Li Sanniang, Qiuxiang, Gao Yahui, and Gao Dasao. Lu Zhuer was held in Li Sanniang's arms, not counting a seat. There were four other people at the table.
Sister-in-law Gao scolded Gao Yahui because there were others at the table. How could she ask this in front of others?
Li Sanniang naturally saw that Gao Yahui was sincerely worried about her, but Li Sanniang couldn't tell the inside story directly. After all, she still didn't know how this poisoning case would end.
“Yahui, thank you for still thinking of me.
It’s okay, haven’t I come back well?
Try this snack quickly and let me see the dewdrops I like to eat it, but I don’t know what it is made of. It’s red and pretty.”
Gao Yahui glanced at the cake pointed by Li Sanniang, and her attention was diverted. She looked at it first. He glanced at Luzhu'er who was eating the pastry, then smiled at Li Sanniang and said, "Sanniang, this is a pastry cake with red grapes."
After everyone chatted for about a quarter of an hour, servants began to serve food one after another.
After serving six cold dishes, it turned out that there was no sauce beef in this dish. Li Sanniang nodded in her heart, but she was a little scared. She didn’t know what the mastermind behind the scenes would do if she saw that there was no sauce beef. Things come up.
Suddenly a servant rang the gong at the top of the hall, and Mrs. Song, the eldest lady of the Song family whom she had just met in the kitchen yard, stood up and announced the start of the banquet, and also said some thanks to everyone. If you come.
Then, many servants began to serve the hot plates one after another. Li Sanniang first served a bowl of soup for Lu Zhuer to dry, and then specially brought a small bowl for Lu Zhuer to eat with vegetables.
Just when Li Sanniang thought she was going to spend the banquet in such an ordinary way, two round tables away from Li Sanniang, she heard the sound of frightened screams.
Then there was the sound of dishes being smashed on the floor, mixed with various sounds, and everything happened in just a few breaths.
When the eldest lady of the Song family, Mrs. Song and Song Pearl came forward to check, there was already a man lying on the ground over there with a knife stuck in his chest, lying in a pool of blood, directly in front of everyone. The woman who died.
Li Sanniang did not come forward. She held Lu Zhuer tightly in her arms and told Lu Zhuer to close her eyes.
The pungent smell of blood frightened the women and girls who had never seen such a situation before, and everyone was so scared that they ran out.
When Li Sanniang ran out with Lu Zhuer and Qiuxiang in her arms, Gao Dasao and Gao Yahui behind her, the front was blocked. It turned out that the door was blocked by a row of people wearing soap boots and round-neck robes. The policeman blocked it.
The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon again~ It just so happens that I have a minor surgery the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, so I can take a good rest after it.
