With Qi Bei around, if Fang Yan doesn't agree to be detained, the two of them won't be able to easily put the handcuffs on her.
However, if we allow Qibei to confront them, the result will be nothing more than mutual destruction.
If Qibei gets hurt, Fang Yan will feel heartache and anger;
If the other party is injured, Fang Yan may have to pay compensation, and Qi Bei may be verbally abused or even beaten.
In the end, Fang Yan decided to tell Qi Bei not to move around.
"Comrade, you're saying there's something wrong with my braised meat, that it caused someone's death. What evidence do you have?"
Even though her hands were restrained, Fang Yan refused to move forward.
The older man nudged the young man beside him, gesturing for Fang Yan to look at the old man on his back. "My father is like this, isn't that proof enough?"
"Who saw that your father turned into this because he ate my braised pork?"
Fang Yan glanced at him coldly, "Then I'll say it again. This isn't my first day selling braised meat here. My braised meat has been very popular since the first day I set up my stall. Some of the people standing here today have been buying my braised meat since the first day. If there were a problem with my braised meat, how could they still be standing here alive?"
Fans also stepped forward to defend Fang Yan, saying, "That's right, Officer Fang, isn't there some misunderstanding? Fang's braised meat is delicious. We all feel very comfortable after eating it. How could it cause death?"
"That's right. When I gave birth to my youngest child, I developed arm pain during my postpartum period. Ever since I started buying braised meat from Xiao Fang and the braising sauce she gave me, which I use to soak rice, my arm doesn't hurt as much anymore. And the meat she braises is really delicious. How could it lead to someone's death?"
"Huh? You guys feel the same way? I thought it was just my imagination. I also feel that after eating Xiao Fang's braised meat and braising sauce, all my minor ailments disappeared. I don't believe that Xiao Fang's braised meat could kill someone. There must be some misunderstanding here."
"I don't believe it either!" The die-hard fan finally got a chance to speak. She even stepped forward from the crowd so that the uncle could see her. "Your half a pound of braised meat yesterday was given to you from my pre-ordered portion because I felt sorry for you. Do you remember?"
The middle-aged man was surprised to run into his die-hard fan sister today, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to look.
The die-hard fan took another step closer to him. "Look at me. I ate quite a bit of that four and a half pounds of braised meat last night, and I feel great today. What's wrong with me?"
"This..." The uncle's mind went blank.
The main reason is that he never expected to run into his die-hard fan sister here today.
So he hadn't prepared any lines to respond to her at all.
After hesitating for a while, he finally managed to come up with a sentence: "Maybe you're in good health and can hold on. Maybe the problem won't start until tomorrow."
"Bullshit!" The die-hard fan immediately started cursing.
Fang Yan then brought up another matter, "You said that because my eldest sister is in good health, the problem might appear tomorrow?"
So yesterday, I cut more than a dozen slices from my older sister's portion of braised pork.
Several of us, including Aunt Zhu from next door, ate together. My child and my dog ate too, and you ate as well.
What? Are you trying to say that we're all healthy, so the problems won't appear until tomorrow?
Yesterday, Fang Yan simply changed the braising sauce recipe so that everyone could try the new flavor.
The uncle wasn't very quick-witted, and he didn't think much about it at the time; he just went along with the tasting.
Now, he is filled with deep regret.
However, one must do what one is paid to do.
Even if he regretted it to the core, he still had to continue doing things. "Maybe...maybe...only the portion you cut for me was the problem."
"Pah!" The die-hard fan was the first to lose her temper, coughing up phlegm and spitting it onto the uncle. "I think your heart and guts are completely black, aren't they? Trying to swindle money from Xiao Fang?"
"You stinking, unwanted woman!" The uncle, who was not a kind-hearted person to begin with, immediately hurled a lot of nasty insults back in the local dialect.
The two police officers had finally managed to put aside their personal grudges, but now they were forced to watch the two of them hurling insults at each other. Their faces darkened considerably. "Shut up, both of you!"
A roar successfully silenced the die-hard female and male fans.
Police Officer A looked at Fang Yan and said, "We are only responsible for bringing you to the station. Other matters are not our concern."
"So, you arrest people without any evidence?" Fang Yan was surprised that someone would dare to be so lawless.
Officer B then pointed to the elderly man who looked like he was about to die, "Isn't this evidence enough?"
"The old man was still breathing. Shouldn't you have taken him to the hospital immediately? Carrying him around like this, swaggering across the street, if something happens to him, I have reasonable grounds to suspect that you deliberately didn't want to take him to the hospital and delayed his rescue. To put it bluntly, you're trying to kill him for money!"
They were after her money, but they ended up taking the old woman's life.
The two police officers and the middle-aged man seemed to want to speak, but Fang Yan didn't give them a chance at all. She looked around at the fans who hadn't left and said, "My customers can all testify that the old man was still breathing, but you deliberately didn't take him to the hospital!"
“Xiao Fang, we’ll be your witnesses!” said the eldest sister, a staunch fan.
Other fans also responded.
They're not stupid; they can tell that someone is deliberately trying to harm Xiao Fang.
The two police officers' expressions changed drastically. The procedures for arresting people today were flawed; they hadn't completed the necessary formalities.
If this gets out of hand, they might both have to take off their clothes.
Getting a job at the police station is a secure job, and they don't want to lose it.
The middle-aged man wasn't the sharpest brain, but he had good eyesight. He noticed that the two policemen were about to back down, so he quickly said, "Anyway, my dad got like this because he ate your braised meat. I'm going to sue you!"
His resolute tone reminded the two police officers that, they had heard, the matter had already been taken care of.
What waves can a few ordinary people like them possibly make?
They had heard that even higher-ups were getting involved in this matter.
In other words, who told this woman to have such bad luck?
Whether it's her fault or not, she has to take the blame.
"Take them away!" Police Officer A and Police Officer B exchanged a glance and made the same decision at the same time.
Little Fish clung to Fang Yan's leg, wailing, "Mommy isn't a bad person, don't grab Mommy!"
Qibei was so angry that she glared at them, wanting to go up and bite the two men who wanted to kidnap Fang Yan to death!
Fang Yan looked at the mischievous child and the furry child, wondering what to do with them.
