Chapter 90 The Truth Revealed

He Yue called Young Master Li over and introduced him to the employees, who were all confused.

Li Yunjiang only said, "I have a way to find the person who brought the ants."

When these words came out, the employees looked at each other with different expressions.

Some were happy that they could prove their innocence, while others worried about what if they found the wrong person.

Theoretically, the ants appeared in the banquet hall and not in the kitchen.

However, if the person with ulterior motives is a kitchen staff, then clues can be found here.

Li Yunjiang walked around and found two dead ants where Ye Shuyi was making pastries.

Is it her?

He Yue looked even more nervous than Ye Shuyi, but he still used his eyes to tell her that everything was fine.

Li Yunjiang also found dead ants in the chef's position, cooking area, and soup area.

"Chef at this position, please stand up for a moment." Li Yunjiang said.

After hesitating for half a minute, the five people finally stood in line.

Ye Shuyi, Chef Luo, Feng Yan, Chef Mo and Chef Zhao.

Li Yunjiang asked a few questions and then asked them to stand back to where they were preparing food before the banquet started.

I thought there would be more analysis, but Li Yunjiang said directly: "The person who brought the ants here is Feng Yan."

"Don't slander me. There are ants in their place too. Why don't you say anything about them?" Feng Yan seemed to have been greatly wronged.

"Okay, then let us search and see if there are any glass bottles among the items you brought."

"What right do you have to search..." His momentum gradually weakened, and he saw that the second young master He was still righteous.

He didn't dare to shout anything more and just said, "Search if you want."

Cai Dong searched his wallet and found nothing like glass bottles or test tubes.

There are some powdery crumbs.

"I've said it all. Now this proves that I'm innocent, right?" Feng Yan said frankly.

Why would he leave chicken feet for people to grab? He had already destroyed the glass bottle and thrown it into the sea.

Li Yunjiang's expression was as expected. He took the wallet handed to him by Cai Dong, twisted the white powder inside, and then put it in front of his nose to smell it.

"What is this?" He Yue walked over and asked puzzledly.

"Talc is often used as a carrier or filler for traps. It can evenly mix with sugars, allowing ants to carry and spread them to the target area. If nothing goes wrong, you were using traps to attract and collect ants outside, then brought them aboard the cruise ship and are now blaming others."

This logic left Feng Yan unable to refute.

"Why don't you search their things?" he struggled desperately.

"The ones found next to their workstations were all female worker ants, while the ones found at yours were male ants. Male ants generally don't come out to mate unless someone deliberately catches them. Why would they catch them? Because you want to use them to reproduce with female ants." Li Yunjiang has some understanding of the habits of ants.

Feng Yan's face was covered in sweat, and his fingers were stroking his work badge.

"...What if someone deliberately put talcum powder in my wallet?"

"Then we can go to various stores and ask to see if you actually bought it."

The He family and the Li family have the manpower and material resources.

Li Yunjiang put on disposable gloves, took Feng Yan's hand and wiped it with a wet wipe.

"What's this for?"

"Evidence. There must be some talcum powder on your hands, and so on this wipe. You can't deny it."

As expected of a forensic scientist, he has strong knowledge of chemistry and reasoning ability.

Ye Shuyi didn't understand these things and just blindly admired him.

Without a doubt, the truth is out.

Feng Yan finally stopped denying it and knelt at He Yue's feet, begging, "Second Young Master, I was possessed by the devil. I'm incompetent, but I'm jealous of the new pastry chef, Miss Ye... I was wrong, please give me another chance!"

"Get out! You've been prepared. No matter who comes to replace you, you will frame him." He Yue kicked him away.

"Second Young Master!" He kowtowed while crying.

That's right, he wanted to frame someone, no matter who it was. He was unwilling to be just a soup maker.

Although his pastry-making skills were not bad, Chef Luo refused to let him be the pastry chef and instead chose Chef Lu, whose skills were average.

After waiting for a long time for Chef Lu to have something to do, he turned out not to be the one to take over!

How could he not be jealous?

So he did this to drive away the pastry chef who came to replace him.

In this way, he can take the throne.

Unexpectedly, the young master of the Li family actually saw through his plan, which he thought was perfect.

Now he kowtowed fiercely, and Master He Er simply said to Cai Dong: "Drag him out and leave him to Master Er to deal with."

The Second Master is the most terrifying person in the He family. He is different from He Xiao in that he has a hot temper and a short temper.

He will smile gently and say it's nothing, but in fact he will stab you in the back thousands of times.

Feng Yan was desperate.

He yelled for mercy, but still couldn't refuse.

After Feng Yan was dragged away, He Yue ordered other employees to pack up what needed to be packed.

Afterwards, he came to Ye Shuyi and said guiltily, "I didn't expect this to happen. I'm sorry to have scared you."

"It's okay, Second Young Master, you don't have to take it to heart. I'm fine." Ye Shuyi knew that he didn't want to be like this either.

I originally came here to show off my skills, but I almost got wrongly accused.

She looked at Li Yunjiang and said gratefully, "Master Li..., this time it's all thanks to you, otherwise I don't know what I would have done."

"It's just a piece of cake." Li Yunjiang said with a smile.

What a nice person!

Ye Shuyi said she wanted to treat Li Yunjiang to a meal and asked him when he would be free.

"The day after tomorrow?"

"Sure! Come to Xiangjiang Kitchen to find me when the time comes." Ye Shuyi insisted on cooking herself, making a table full of delicious food and wine, and also preparing a thank-you gift.

Although the Li family may not be short of such a thank-you gift, they still need to prepare it.

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Ye." He smiled.

“No trouble!”

As the two were talking, He Yue asked, "Can I go?"

"Of course!" Ye Shuyi also wanted to thank him. "Under that situation, you still believed that I was innocent. Thank you so much!"

"I still have good vision." He Yue said confidently that he would not misjudge people.

A few of us made an appointment to meet at Xiangjiang Kitchen at 12 o'clock the day after tomorrow.

Someone came to the kitchen and knocked on the door.

Ye Shuyi turned around and saw a middle-aged man.

"Uncle Ruan." He Yue called out.

This is the housekeeper who follows grandpa.

"Second Young Master, Young Master Li, and Miss Ye, the old master is calling you over." Butler Ruan had a decent smile on his face.

"good."

He Yue and the other two followed.

Old Master He has recovered from his shock and looks normal.

When he saw his grandson and others, he smiled kindly.

"Ayue, Yunjiang, Miss Ye, you are here."

"Grandpa." He Yue said.

"Old Master He." The other two said.

Old Master He asked them to sit down and asked He Yue to sit next to him.

"It was a close call this time. Are you not scared? Yunjiang." As the host, he had to apologize to the guests for such an incident that happened on his territory.
