Chapter 168 Arguing with Reason

Su Hanchu also walked to the door of Yuemanting.

Seeing Ping'er and the other two succeed, he immediately started talking to attract everyone's attention.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to have wasted your time today. I'm the owner of Yue Manting. We've already reported the matter to the authorities, and I'm sure they'll be here soon. I, Yue Manting, am a man of integrity and can withstand any investigation. As long as the authorities determine that this lady's husband died because of me, Yue Manting, I will naturally take full responsibility."

Seeing that no matter who stood up from Yue Manting was so confident, the onlookers couldn't help but look at Zhang Qiao again, and their expressions were no longer just sympathy.

At this time, Qiu Kui also invited a famous doctor in the town.

"Madam, this is Dr. Li, a famous doctor in town."

After hearing this, Su Hanchu immediately spoke to Doctor Li.

"Doctor, please take a look at the cause of this deceased person's death."

Doctor Li stepped forward and slightly lifted the white cloth, pried open Zhang Dazhuang's eyes and took a look, then reached out to feel his pulse.

"This deceased person indeed died of poisoning. If I'm not mistaken..."

Before Doctor Li could finish his words, Zhang Qiao started crying again.

"My husband, you died tragically. You were kind enough to take care of Yue Manting's business, but you poisoned him. Yue Manting has so many people and so much money. I don't have the ability to seek justice for you. I will go with you today!"

Then he suddenly stood up and slammed into the door of Yue Manting.

Realizing Zhang Qiao's intention, he narrowed his eyes slightly, then reached out and grabbed Zhang Qiao's collar and threw him to the ground.

"Ah!" Zhang Qiao screamed in pain and rolled on the ground.

"Help! Yue Manting is going to kill someone to silence them. God is really blind. There is no law in this world..."

Su Hanchu looked at her rolling around with sharp eyes and spoke in a deep voice.

"Shut up."

Then he slowly squatted down, pinched Zhang Qiao's chin, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Zhang Qiao, right? If you really wanted to die, you wouldn't have come to my Yue Manting. You'd better tell me who asked you to frame me, Yue Manting."

Then he lowered his voice.

"I have hundreds of ways to make someone disappear, and if you want to cause trouble, you have to think carefully about whether you can afford the consequences."

Then he slowly stood up and raised his voice.

"Zhang Qiao, if I really wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have stopped you from banging your head against the door frame. Why did you do that in front of so many people? You should have some sense of propriety when you cause trouble. Don't treat all of us like fools..."

Suddenly a voice remembered.

"Everyone, get out of the way. The government is investigating the case."

More than ten officers ran to the gate of Yue Manting.

The leading county magistrate spoke.

"Yue Manting is involved in a murder case. Bring everyone back to the yamen for interrogation."

Su Hanchu looked at so many people coming, and saw a luxurious carriage in the distance out of the corner of his eye. Then he calculated the time and realized that it was impossible for the officials to arrive so quickly.

It seems that someone is targeting Yue Manting in today's incident. I just don't know how much Hua Tiantian is involved.

He spoke without a trace of fear in his eyes.

"Sir County Magistrate, I am the owner of Yue Man Ting. I will follow you. Everyone in Yue Man Ting abides by the law and can withstand any investigation. However, since our Yue Man Ting opened, business has indeed been booming. Many people in the town and even the county have eaten at our Yue Man Ting.

Please allow me to say a few more words to everyone, Your Excellency. I believe that Your Excellency does not want the people to be frightened."

The county magistrate was about to say something, but Su Hanchu had already turned to the onlookers and spoke.

"Everyone, thank you for your care for our Yue Man Ting. I, Su Han, swear on my life and the future of Yue Man Ting that if Zhang Da Zhuang's death is caused by me, Yue Man Ting, then I, Su Hanchu, as the owner, will not have a good death, and Yue Man Ting will close down.

Please believe me, Yue Manting was framed. Please also think back: you have dined at our restaurant more than once or twice. When have you ever felt uncomfortable?"

As soon as Zhang Qiao saw the official, she immediately rushed over and knelt in front of him.

"Sir, you are finally here. Please take charge. Yue Manting has gone too far. He killed my husband and wants to kill me to silence me. If you had come a little later, Yue Manting would have killed me too..."

Upon hearing this, the county magistrate bent down and helped Zhang Qiao up.

"Madam, please rest assured. Our county magistrate has always been fair and just. We will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you justice. Please come with us and explain the whole story."

Then he looked at Su Hanchu and began to urge him impatiently.

"Okay, let's go. Is there anything wrong with your restaurant? We have to investigate to find out."

Then he gave orders to two officers.

"You two stay here to investigate, and the others will take the people from the restaurant back to the county government office for interrogation."

Su Hanchu took a step back to avoid being caught by the police.

"Sir County Magistrate, there is no evidence to prove that I, Yue Manting, am guilty. Even if there are suspicions, they can only ask us to question him, not to arrest him."

The county magistrate's face darkened when he heard this.

"It all means the same thing, why are you being so pretentious? Hurry up and leave, do you really think our officials have unlimited time?"

Su Hanchu spoke immediately.

"I'm the head of Yue Manting in this matter. If the County Magistrate wants to question me, just take me. Without evidence, we can only cooperate with your investigation, but you have no right to take all of us away. If you insist on doing so, then I will suspect that you, the County Magistrate, are intentionally biased towards the Zhang Qiao family."
