A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Lu Jiaojiao and Constable Li dared to set people on fire.
She has to settle this score properly!
Shen Qingtang led Pei Nian'an out of the villa. Both of them were neatly dressed and showed no signs of dishevelment.
Seeing this from a distance, Lu Jiaojiao's eyes reddened. She couldn't believe that such a huge fire and fog hadn't harmed them in the slightest!
"How could you be alright?!" Lu Jiaojiao screamed and rushed over, but Shen Qingtang raised her hand to stop her.
The next second, Shen Qingtang directly sprinkled the plague toxin she had previously extracted onto Lu Jiaojiao and Constable Li, leaving the toxins on their clothes.
It seeped into their skin instantly, leaving the two no time to dodge.
"Shen Qingtang! What do you want to do?!" Lu Jiaojiao was both angry and scared. She reached out to try to brush off the poison from her body, but found that the poison seemed to be stuck to her skin and she couldn't get rid of it no matter what she did.
"I want you to pay for your crimes in blood." Shen Qingtang said coldly, "You set me on fire and used the fog to harm me. Now I'm just letting you taste the plague."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Lu Jiaojiao suddenly clutched her stomach and began coughing violently. Her face turned deathly pale at a visible speed, indicating that she was experiencing the symptoms of the plague.
Officer Li, standing to the side, wasn't much better off.
He was trembling all over, his lips were blue, and he couldn't even stand up straight.
Lu's mother rushed over to help Lu Jiaojiao, but accidentally came into contact with the poison on her body. Before long, she also started coughing, which made her furious and she cursed, "Shen Qingtang! You poisonous woman!"
Shen Qingtang ignored them, turned around and walked to Zhao Dutou, and said indifferently: "Zhao Dutou, Lu Jiaojiao, Constable Li and Lu's mother have all contracted the plague. In order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, I suggest that they be quarantined immediately."
Seeing the three men's pained expressions, Zhao Dutou dared not disagree.
They were immediately dragged to a dilapidated house on the outskirts of the city for isolation.
At this moment, Lin Peirou approached tremblingly, and Shen Qingtang's eyes turned cold.
Just as she was about to hand over the poison, Lin Peirou suddenly knelt down on the ground with a thud, crying and shouting, "Shen Qingtang! Don't hurt me! I'll tell you a secret! If you let me go, I'll tell you everything!"
Lin Peirou knelt on the ground, trembling with sobs, her voice filled with extreme fear: "Shen Qingtang, I'll tell you the truth! That thing between you and Lu Jin... I did it on Wang San's orders! I drugged the tea in your room and had a strange man pushed in... I was forced into it. Wang San said if I didn't do it, he'd kill me, I had no choice..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingtang froze, and anger instantly ignited in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, she ended up spending the night with a strange man.
It turned out that Lin Peirou was the one who was stirring things up behind the scenes.
"So, you not only framed me, but also helped Lu Jiaojiao harm Nian'an. Now that you're being coerced, you're only thinking of begging me?" Shen Qingtang's voice was as cold as ice, and her eyes were fixed on Lin Peirou, making Lin Peirou's scalp tingle.
Lin Peirou immediately kowtowed, her forehead turning red: "I know I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! But there are still people trying to harm me in secret! That Wang San who forced me, he even said that if I didn't listen to him, he would expose everything! I'm a victim too! Shen Qingtang, please don't kill me, I'll never dare to do it again!"
Shen Qingtang looked at her humble appearance.
I felt no sympathy whatsoever; Lin Peirou's cowardice and malice had already led to a grave mistake.
But she didn't act immediately. Instead, she said coldly, "If you want to live, tell me everything you know, including Wang San's background. If you hide even a single word, you know the consequences."
Lin Peirou, as if grasping at a lifeline, nodded hurriedly and told him everything she knew.
They didn't even dare to hide the fact that Lu Jiaojiao secretly passed messages to the people of Beimo and that Wang San often went to the dilapidated temple on the outskirts of the city to make contact.
Lin Peirou suddenly looked up, her voice trembling: "There's one more thing... The child you gave birth to back then, he didn't die! I heard Wang San say when he was drunk that he took the child away and threw him near the mass grave outside the city... Only by finding Wang San can we find out where the child is!"
