Today He Sizhao made mushroom soup, which was light and delicious. Even though the seasonings were not all added, it was already delicious enough.
Jiang Chuyi took a bite and found it glossy and tasteless.
Before she put down the spoon, the system suddenly made a panicked sound.
"Host Su Su Su...what are you eating?"
"Can't you see?" Jiang Chuyi stirred the pot, trying to take another sip. "Mushroom soup."
"You don't know what you're doing!" The system screamed in disarray. "That's poison! It's poison! People... not just people, any living thing will die if it eats it!"
It really couldn't understand why it was someone else's turn to cause trouble now that the host had finally stopped making trouble!
What if Jiang Chuyi gets angry and cooks them all up in one pot, regardless of whether there are male protagonists, male supporting actors, or female supporting actors?
The more it thought about it, the more frightened it became, as if it had already seen a future in which it would be destroyed along with the world.
Just as it was preparing to write a suicide note, Jiang Chuyi's thoughtful voice sounded.
"Can you analyze what I eat?"
"Of course, after all, it has entered your body." The system said sternly.
Jiang Chuyi turned the spoon in his hand: "What kind of poison is this?"
"□□, white crystalline powder. Even a tiny amount is fatal," the system said. "That person injected a lot of it. It seems he's determined to kill you."
"What good would it do him to kill me?" Jiang Chuyi was quite surprised. "I didn't do anything to him."
"Maybe... he couldn't stand seeing his wise and brave captain constantly humiliating you?" The system didn't understand, but it didn't stop it from getting nervous. "You've taken a few bites. Are you okay?"
"Do I look like I'm in trouble?" Jiang Chuyi scoffed. "I thought he added some seasoning. I just wanted to see if there was any special flavor."
"..." The system was silent for a moment, then gave a very pertinent suggestion, "Host, why don't you consider staying with He Sizhao forever? At least he won't let you eat anything weird."
Jiang Chuyi's eyes darkened, but he remained silent.
After knowing that it was poison rather than seasoning, she lost interest in the unformed pot of soup. Just as she was about to put down the spoon, she saw He Sizhao striding in.
He had a good harvest, holding a pile of bottles and jars, as well as bags of peppercorns, star anise and other things.
Seeing Jiang Chuyi holding a spoon, he was a little surprised: "Are you so hungry? Don't worry, it will be ready soon."
As he spoke, he quickly put the things in his hands on the table, picked out the pepper he needed, opened it, and shook it into the pot twice.
Suddenly, a stronger aroma came out.
The vegetable soup cooked very quickly. He Sizhao quickly turned off the fire and brought the pot to Jiang Chuyi.
Jiang Chuyi smelled the aroma of the pot and asked casually, "He Sizhao, who is that person?"
Following her gaze, He Sizhao saw the young man who had just come.
The young man was obviously paying attention to their movements, and kept glancing over here with the corner of his eyes. When He Sizhao looked over, his gaze met his, which startled him visibly.
Then he smiled and continued talking to the person next to him as if he didn't care.
"Zhang Zhiyi." He Sizhao calmly withdrew his gaze. "Why are you suddenly interested in him?"
"How did he get into your special forces?" Jiang Chuyi stirred the soup in his hand but didn't eat. "I remember Wuyi said that it's difficult for your special forces to get in."
"There are some review requirements, but they're not particularly demanding," He Sizhao said. "Zhang Zhiyi was recommended to me directly, and I personally reviewed his abilities, and he met all the requirements."
"Someone recommended me..." Jiang Chuyi sighed vaguely.
He Sizhao sat next to her and asked patiently, "Xiaoyi, what did he do? Why do you suddenly care about him?"
Jiang Chuyi seemed to find it very interesting and smiled.
Just as the system began to wonder how she would let He Sizhao know about this, Jiang Chuyi suddenly said, "He just added something to the pot."
He Sizhao was stunned.
The system was also stunned.
Then it wanted to cover its face.
What is it thinking about? What does Jiang Chuyi want to do? Does she need to go through so many twists and turns?
He Sizhao looked thoughtfully at the soup that Jiang Chuyi stirred here and there but refused to touch a single bite, and a gloomy look flashed across his brows.
Jiang Chuyi looked up at him, his eyes clear and transparent.
"I understand." He Sizhao said.
The next second, he moved suddenly, and before he could even blink, he was in front of Zhang Zhiyi.
Zhang Zhiyi was shocked.
Everyone was surprised by He Sizhao's sudden appearance, but only Zhang Zhiyi was obviously frightened and panicked. He even subconsciously turned around and wanted to run, but when he turned around, he bumped into Su Mo.
Su Mo had a smile on his lips, and he placed one hand on Zhang Zhiyi's shoulder seemingly easily. He looked up at He Sizhao and said, "Brother Zhao, what's wrong?"
No matter how hard Zhang Zhiyi struggled, he could not escape from this seemingly slender hand. His face suddenly turned pale and his eyes darted around in panic.
The commotion here quickly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone quickly gathered around.
"Zhang Zhiyi?" Wuyi was stunned for a moment. "Why are you arresting him? Did this kid get into trouble?"
"You'll have to ask Brother Zhao." Su Mo said.
He Sizhao didn't say anything more and said directly: "Search him."
Everyone around him was confused, but when Zhang Zhiyi heard his words, he immediately realized that the matter had been exposed.
He seemed to have his soul sucked out, and his face turned pale as he slid down. If Su Mo hadn't held him tightly, he would have sat on the ground by now.
A hint of awe appeared in Su Mo's eyes. He controlled Zhang Zhiyi, and Lu Qianzhi and Wuyi quickly searched him.
Zhang Zhiyi opened his mouth but said nothing. He was so nervous that he even retched a few times.
"I'm warning you, don't spit on me," Wuyi said.
His attitude changed very quickly. Since the boss had this attitude, it showed that there must be something wrong with this person. No matter whether they were comrades fighting side by side before, as long as the boss changed his attitude, he was no longer a brother.
"Captain, why are you searching me?" Zhang Zhiyi was still struggling, making a weak sound. "Is it just because I was close to Miss Jiang?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes looked a little subtle.
Wuyi's face darkened and he punched him right in the nose.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" He cursed. "Are you accusing the boss of being blinded by lust and wrongly accusing you for Xiaoyi?"
"Then why are you searching me..." Zhang Zhiyi's tears were streaming down his face, but he still insisted, "I just wanted to take a closer look at Miss Jiang. I didn't do anything..."
Everyone is here, so there's no guarantee someone saw him go there. There's no denying that.
At this time, Lu Qianzhi took out a small bottle from his inner pocket. The bottle was transparent and there was nothing inside.
Su Mo handed the person to Wuyi, took the small bottle, unscrewed it, and put it to his nose to smell it.
Everyone held their breath and watched him closely, but he frowned and shook his head at He Sizhao: "The contents should have been solid. After pouring it out, there was no smell left."
Zhang Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief: "Captain, can you let me up now?"
He Shizhao's brows were calm, and Su Mo and Lu Qianzhi did not relax either.
Others don’t know, but they know that Jiang Chuyi has his own unique talent, which is to distinguish the good and evil of others.
Since Zhang Zhiyi had been close to Jiang Chuyi before, and now He Sizhao had come to him again, it proved that Jiang Chuyi must have felt that there was something wrong with him.
But there is no evidence now. If we rashly detain a team member, it will make others confused. Even if they don’t say it on the surface, they will inevitably have doubts in their hearts. Human hearts are unpredictable.
Just when things were stuck, Jiang Chuyi came over.
After she knew that the poison was lethal, she never touched that pot of soup again. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why she was fine after eating it.
She was waiting for He Sizhao to finish dealing with that person and then come over to make her another pot. But after waiting for a while, she could still hear that person's voice, which made her unhappy.
Seeing Jiang Chuyi coming, everyone automatically made way for her, looking at her with somewhat subtle eyes.
After all, if this matter doesn't come to a conclusion, she will become a country disaster.
He Sizhao swallowed back the words he was about to say and caught Jiang Chuyi's body that was leaning towards him.
Jiang Chuyi didn't look at them. He leaned lazily next to He Sizhao and said, "Look under his fingernails."
They all thought that Zhang Zhiyi had put the drug directly into the vial, but Jiang Chuyi saw clearly that he had nothing in his hand at the time.
Such a fine powder will always leave some on your hands if you touch it.
Zhang Zhiyi's face suddenly changed.
Before he could struggle, Su Mo grabbed one of his hands, but his nails were clean and nothing could be seen.
"Ms. Jiang, I just admire you. How could you frame me like this?" Zhang Zhiyi calmed down and said tearfully, "I apologize to you and the captain. I will never get close to you again."
Everyone looked unhappy.
Although they emotionally want to believe He Sizhao and Jiang Chuyi, there is indeed no convincing evidence at present. It seems that He Sizhao is condoning Jiang Chuyi's unreasonable behavior.
Just when everyone thought they were at a stalemate again, Jiang Chuyi sneered, "Since you're so sure, fine."
Zhang Zhiyi immediately showed an uneasy look on his face.
Jiang Chuyi raised his chin and ordered, "Put his right index finger into his mouth."
Zhang Zhiyi was completely stunned.
The others were also confused by this order. Su Mo showed a little realization and moved the fastest. He grabbed his right hand, which he was trying to retract, and stuffed all four of his fingers into his mouth.
"Woooooo! Woooooo!"
Zhang Zhiyi struggled even harder than before, but he could not escape the unintentional grip no matter what. He was choked and rolled his eyes, drooling.
However, soon, his eye roll turned into real eye roll.
His struggling movements gradually weakened. Although his hand had been taken out, he looked like he was having difficulty breathing. He opened his mouth desperately to grab a little air, but it was extremely difficult.
In a moment, his skin and the whites of his eyes began to turn red.
Wu Yi was frightened and let go of him, but he didn't have the strength to run away. He struggled to crawl on the ground, stretching out his arms to try to reach everyone around him, like a demon crawling out of hell.
Everyone stared at the scene with wide eyes, not daring to step forward.
“Help…Help…”
Before he could finish his words, he stopped breathing forever.
His eyes were red, his expression was ferocious, and his body was a ripe scarlet.
It was a quick, but obviously agonizing death.
Jiang Chuyi looked at him coldly, without a trace of emotion in his eyes.
Seeing that she had no reaction, He Sizhao felt relieved.
"What the hell... is going on?" Wuyi was stunned, still in shock. "What is so terrifying?"
"□□." Su Mo let out a long sigh, revealing a look of certainty. "It's colorless and odorless, and dissolves in water. If he used the poison from his own hands, some of it would have dissolved in sweat from his fingers. But this dosage would cause sudden death... He used the purified version, just to kill you."
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Chuyi with concern.
The misunderstanding just now was resolved, and everyone looked at her with pity, but Jiang Chuyi remained unmoved.
"No," she said. "I think he wants to kill He Sizhao more than me."
