Chapter 60 Setting up the Game
The kitchen on the first floor of the club was busy.
In addition to wine and tea, they also provide midnight snacks.
The kitchen mainly makes Western food, which is simple and fast.
Of course, if a very important guest orders a certain meal, they will also make it.
Just like the guest in VIP room 208 today, he wants to eat Chinese food. The ingredients are available, but it is more troublesome.
Several assistants are called by the chef to prepare the ingredients.
The door of the back kitchen was pushed open from the outside, and a boy in a waiter's uniform leaned in and asked:
"Is Su Su here? The customer in room 208 asked him to come up."
"Didn't he go to deliver wine to the boss?"
"I delivered room 206 for him. He said he would go to the back kitchen to help the customer in room 208 to urge for the meal, but now the customer in room 208 said the meal has not been delivered yet. Where is he?"
"No, the meal in room 208 is still on the stove. Go away, it smells bad here. If you get on and get complaints from customers, you will be fined."
"But..."
The door of the back kitchen was closed with a bang.
The waiter looked at the door and shook his head, a little puzzled.
Just now Su Su told him that the customer in room 208 was urging for the meal and asked him to help deliver wine to room 206.
Why did the back kitchen say that Su Su didn't come?
Su Su is always very serious at work, so she shouldn't slack off during working hours, right?
Meanwhile, the three people in Room 206 looked at the breathless man at the door in confusion.
Cheng Yun was surprised: "Mr. Pei? Didn't you say you had something to do in the evening?"
Huo Qiao's eyes were also a little strange. Pei Yuzhi had been chattering on WeChat just now, and Huo Qiao was annoyed that he didn't reply.
Why did he suddenly come up here?
Pei Yuzhi raised his hand and pressed it on the wall.
All the lights in the private room suddenly brightened.
Huo Qiao was shocked and closed his eyes.
"Pei Yuzhi, are you okay?"
Because of Shen Xingyi's black material, Zhong Lin held back the curses, but he also gritted his teeth.
In such occasions, dim and ambiguous lighting is the norm. Zhong Lin's scalp went numb when he was suddenly illuminated by the dazzling white light.
When Pei Yuzhi saw the three people in the room who were safe and sound, the strings in his heart loosened.
His eyes fell directly on Huo Qiao who was sitting on the sofa in the middle.
The other party frowned uncomfortably, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and his right hand was resting on the wine glass.
The string tightened again, Pei Yuzhi suddenly turned around and stared at Cheng Yun:
"Who sent the wine? Su Su?"
Cheng Yun was surprised, "It wasn't him, it was an ordinary waiter, it was Zhong Lin who opened the wine, I saw it with my own eyes."
Zhong Lin was puzzled: "What are you talking about? Who is Su Su? What's wrong with the wine?"
Huo Qiao's expression was grim: "Pei Yuzhi, what happened?"
Pei Yuzhi strode towards Huo Qiao, the bright red wine flashed an unknown light in the glass.
He took a deep breath and asked: "How much did you drink?"
Huo Qiao: "You came before I drank."
[Su Su can't be so desperate and put drugs in the wine again? ]
[He likes Pei Yuzhi, it's understandable that he drugged Pei Yu. ]
[Why did you drug me? Xie Jinchuan? Or something else?
Pei Yuzhi said to Zhong Lin with a cold face: "
Find someone you trust to seal these wines and take them for testing. If you don't want to be messed with, this store will be closed for rectification recently."
Zhong Lin moved his lips and looked at Huo Qiao.
Huo Qiao stood up and asked: "What happened?"
Pei Yuzhi looked away: "Nothing."
Without testing, he had no idea whether there was any problem with the wine.
Even if the wine had problems and was not sent by Su Su, he still couldn't prove that it was Su Su who did it.
It was the same last time in the club. The man who blatantly drugged him under surveillance disappeared without a trace.
It was as if a pair of big hands were helping those people to do evil.
Pei Yuzhi drooped his eyelids and felt gloomy.
Although Zhong Lin didn't expect this store to make money, how could a business be closed for no reason?
But he was not stupid.
Shen Xingyi's black material had just come out, and this store was targeted again.
He felt a chill in his heart.
The Zhong family was being targeted.
Just as he was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
Zhong Lin turned his head abruptly, and the club manager had a cold face and panic in his eyes.
He swallowed his dry throat and spoke with difficulty:
"Mr. Zhong, there is an accident on the first floor."
The lobby on the first floor.
The crowd formed a circle, and a man was lying in the circle, wearing the red and black uniform of the store. There was no blood under his body, and the man didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
In the middle of the stairs, Pei Yuzhi turned his head and looked at Zhong Lin with a serious expression: "Your trouble has come, you'd better be thankful that the bottle of wine just now is fine."
"What do you mean?" Zhong Lin's voice was inexplicably tense, "What's going on?"
Huo Qiao suddenly spoke: "Zhong Lin, you are the boss here, you go and deal with things downstairs first."
Zhong Lin was comforted by his calm voice, but still looked at Pei Yuzhi with some suspicion before going downstairs.
Huo Qiao looked at Pei Yuzhi steadily: "Can you tell me what happened?"
Pei Yuzhi's eyes moved slightly:
"If the bottle of wine upstairs is indeed problematic and is a trigger, how would you deal with it?"
Huo Qiao stood on the stairs behind him, and the height difference between the two became almost invisible because of the stairs.
This was the first time Huo Qiao looked at Pei Yuzhi at eye level, and his tone was very calm: "Of course, solve the problem."
There was a commotion downstairs, but fortunately, the person was still alive.
Pei Yuzhi's eyes were fixed deeply on a certain corner. Su Su stood in an inconspicuous place in the dark, hiding behind the crowd, like a shameful rat.
Huo Qiao moved quickly.
The bottle of wine was poured into the toilet, and the fingerprints on the bottle were wiped clean, but he still managed to leave a piece of cloth soaked with wine.
And facts proved that Pei Yuzhi's expectation was correct.
Just after Huo Qiao finished these things, a whistling sirens sounded outside the door.
I don't know which customer called the police, saying that there was a murder in the store, so the police came.
*
Pei Yuzhi sat in the corridor of the police station, recalling everything that happened tonight bit by bit.
The waiter was not dead, but he had been unconscious.
After a preliminary diagnosis, it was found that he had an overdose and had an immune rejection reaction due to his first time taking drugs.
Pei Yuzhi's eyes flickered as he stared at the police badge not far away, feeling a chill in his heart.
He was not in Room 206 when the waiter brought the wine, so he did not need to cooperate with the investigation as a suspect.
But Huo Qiao, Zhong Lin and Cheng Yun were not so lucky.
Not long after, several men in leather clothes came in hurriedly from outside.
The lawyers for Huo Qiao and the other three had arrived.
"Hello, Mr. Pei. I'm Mr. Cheng's attorney, my last name is Chu," the man in his thirties looked nervous. "Could you please tell me what happened today?"
Huo Qiao and Cheng Yun's lawyers also arrived. Several of them stared at him with burning eyes. Pei Yuzhi took a deep breath:
"---They arrived first. When I arrived, they hadn't drunk the bottle of wine yet. Then something happened downstairs.
Later, before the police came, Huo Qiao poured out the wine." After
hearing this, several lawyers immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"So, even if we draw blood from the three of them, nothing can be found."
"Yes, this is someone's deliberate setup," Pei Yuzhi stared at the lawyers coldly and continued, "You know who they are, and none of them can have anything to do with drugs, you should understand that."
"Of course, Mr. Pei, please rest assured. When the appointed time comes, I know what to say to Mr. Cheng when I see him."
Several lawyers are the best in the legal community of Dongsu City.
After looking at each other, they knew what to do about today's matter.
Pei Yuzhi responded lightly and turned his gaze to the closed interrogation room.
It is unknown whether today's situation is Su Su's revenge or Xie Jinchuan wants to destroy Huo Qiao.
But what is certain is that Su Su and Xie Jinchuan are both beneficiaries of Huo Qiao and Zhong Lin's accident.
He avoided the plot, but it happened to Huo Qiao...
Tsk.
Trouble.
