Looking at the angry villagers, Doctor Lin suddenly lost his confidence.
He had no choice but to pull the mayor over to appeal for justice.
The mayor smiled and said to Old Lady Huang: "Don't be angry, Mrs. Huang. I will get to the bottom of this matter."
Old Mrs. Huang was very satisfied with the mayor. She thought that he was not only free from the arrogance of an official, but also did not put on airs. He was very approachable and a good official who cared about the people.
I thanked him immediately.
Doctor Lin looked at this and felt worried.
"Mayor, why are you being so polite to such lowly people? They are nothing but worthless lives."
Originally, he had a lot more to say, but the mayor's face looked very unhappy, so he could only swallow all the rest of his words.
The mayor bypassed him and asked Captain Bu, "Have you found any evidence?"
Captain Bu said, "Found it."
Having said that, he asked someone to bring out the evidence.
"This is a medicinal herb, Heart-Eating Vine, which was found in Doctor Lin's clinic. It is produced in the Western Regions."
Before being recruited as a constable by the imperial court, Captain Bu was a Shaolin monk. He was not only an expert in martial arts, but also knew a lot of poisons.
The mayor's eyes fell on Doctor Lin.
Doctor Lin immediately defended himself by saying that he ran a clinic and which clinic didn't have poison?
His forehead was covered with tons of cold sweat, and he said that this heart-eating vine can treat rheumatism and relieve back and leg pain.
"Nonsense, this Heart-Eating Vine is just a poison. The reason why Moyun Pill is called an unsolvable poison is because of the effect of the Heart-Eating Vine. It can paralyze a person's mind and stop the heart from beating."
Doctor Lin still denied it. He said that even if the Heart-Eating Vine was found in his clinic, how could it be proved that he was the one who poisoned her?
"The nurse said it was done by a man who looked like a servant. Didn't you draw a portrait of him?"
"Doctor Lin, do you think I will arrest you without solid evidence?"
Captain Bu sneered and said, "Since the young doctor said that Mo Yun Wan was produced in the Western Regions, I became suspicious. I went to him to ask about the formula of Mo Yun Wan, but unfortunately he didn't know it either. He only said that one of the most important ingredients is the Heart-Eating Vine, which is only found in the Western Regions.
"And I just happened to have seen this medicinal ingredient in your clinic before, and your clinic is the only one in the whole town that has it! So I made your clinic a key target for investigation."
So that's how it is. Doctor Lin's forehead was covered with even more cold sweat.
No wonder, when he wanted to leave just now, Captain Bu didn't let him go. It turned out that he had already become suspicious of him at that time.
But Doctor Lin still wanted to make a last-ditch effort, "Boss Shen and I are good friends, how could I possibly harm him? This is illogical!"
Mr. Shen stood aside and watched, he didn't say anything.
Even though he had thousands of words to ask, he still chose to remain silent.
He would never question before he understood the situation clearly.
But at this moment, his mood was already very heavy.
Fortunately, Chang'er has been rescued, otherwise, he would never be able to deal with this matter rationally again.
Doctor Lin walked up to Mr. Shen and said, "Boss Shen, I really don't have any reason to hurt your son!"
Boss Shen didn't know how to answer for a moment. He moved his mouth but in the end no words came out.
He also hoped that this incident had nothing to do with Doctor Lin, but judging from Doctor Lin's attitude towards Chang'er just now and the evidence found by Captain Bu, he had actually become suspicious.
Boss Shen didn't say anything. Doctor Lin's face turned ugly. He pointed at Boss Shen and said, "If I had known you were like this, I wouldn't have come here."
Captain Bu sneered and continued, "Doctor Lin, do you think this is all the evidence I found?"
Could it be that he has another ultimate move?
