Chapter 938: Collective Food Poisoning (Part 3)
More than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The weather in the capital is getting hotter and hotter, and everyone's clothes are gradually changing from thin coats to short sleeves.
Ruan Qi had been recuperating at home for so long that her health had improved considerably. Her sea of consciousness, which had been on the verge of collapse, had also gradually recovered due to Jiang Chunian's death.
Seeing that she had recovered, the little girl could no longer stay.
She secretly called Shen Wenqian, wanting him to help her get some work.
However, before the job was accepted, a major event happened in the capital.
A mass food poisoning incident occurred at a high-end private restaurant called "Guyun".
This incident caused a huge uproar on the Internet. By the time Ruan Qi saw the news, the poisoned customers had already been sent to the hospital.
Ruan Qi didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was just ordinary food poisoning.
However, that night, Nie Beilou returned home with a serious expression.
"Have you heard about the Guyun Private Kitchen?"
Ruan Qi was eating and nodded when she heard this: "I saw the news. Is it serious?"
Nie Beilou didn't say anything. He walked straight to the dining table, sat down, and handed over a piece of information in his hand.
"Look at this."
Ruan Qi took the information, looking down at it, her expression slightly changed. "Guyun Private Kitchen is owned by the Cheng family?!"
Nie Beilou frowned and nodded.
Ruan Qi's face also darkened.
If Guyun Private Kitchen was just an ordinary restaurant, the collective food poisoning might have been an accident.
However, it turned out to be the Cheng family's property.
This made Ruan Qi think more about whether there was any conspiracy.
Nie Beilou: "The diners who were poisoned by Guyun Private Kitchen are currently receiving treatment at the Third Imperial Capital Hospital. I've inquired and found out that there were quite a few poisoned diners, forty-six in total. All of them suffered from foaming at the mouth, shock, and coma, and they haven't woken up yet."
Ruan Qi couldn't help but frown.
Ordinary food poisoning will not cause such a serious reaction, but more serious food poisoning such as aflatoxin can cause shock, coma, and even death.
However, since the amount of food consumed by each person is different, the severity of the poisoning will also be different, and it is not possible for everyone to fall into a coma.
There is something strange about this matter.
"Apart from being unconscious, are there any other symptoms?" Ruan Qi asked Nie Beilou.
Nie Beilou shook his head. "The hospital has done gastric lavages on them, and their body indicators have gradually returned to normal. But they just can't wake up."
His body functions were normal, but he was unconscious. How could this be a bit like...
Ruan Qi's expression suddenly changed. "Master, do you think those diners weren't suffering from food poisoning at all, but rather from the drug used by Organization X?"
The drugs produced by Organization X can develop human potential and control brain consciousness.
Those who have been injected with this drug will have normal physical indicators, or even better than ordinary people. However, because their brain consciousness is controlled, they may become sleeping puppets before the controller issues any instructions, that is, in a coma.
This incident happened in a restaurant owned by the Cheng family, and Ruan Qi couldn't help but think about it. And what she could think of, Nie Beilou naturally thought of as well.
"That's why I'm going home today," Nie Beilou said in a serious tone. "I suspect this food poisoning incident isn't accidental. You know the dean of the Third Hospital in the Imperial Capital. Give him a call and we can go over there."
Happy Qixi Festival everyone.
