The police officers will not draw a conclusion about this incident based on Li Junsheng's words alone.
Instead, he said seriously to Li Junsheng, "Do you have any evidence to prove that you're not lying to us?"
Li Guojun came to his senses and immediately followed the police officers to question Li Junsheng.
"Yes, Dad, you can't just eat whatever you want, but you can't just say whatever you want. What proof do you have that I put laxatives in the broth?"
Li Guojun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that since Li Junsheng couldn't produce any evidence, he should be fine.
Li Junsheng understood his thoughts and couldn't help but feel that his eldest son was pitifully foolish.
If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. Since he did such a thing, it's certain that he left behind evidence!
“Officer, you can take him to the nearby clinics and pharmacies and ask him if he has any records of buying large quantities of laxatives. The purchase records from the clinics and pharmacies can prove that I am not lying.”
Li Guojun's face turned pale. He had planned everything perfectly, but he had overlooked the matter of buying medicine at the clinic. He hadn't been masked at the time, and now that he was there, the people at the clinic would definitely recognize him.
Seeing that Li Guojun looked unwell, Li Junsheng raised an eyebrow and smiled at him.
The eldest is still too young; he's too green to play with me!
“You’re right. We’ll take him to investigate the laxative issue.”
The police officers agreed to Li Junsheng's suggestion. One of them stepped forward, pressed down on Li Guojun's shoulder, and temporarily handcuffed him.
I'll take them away later and conduct a detailed investigation of each clinic and pharmacy.
Li Guojun was truly dumbfounded!
Seeing that Li Guojun was about to be taken away, Li Junsheng did not forget to send away his ungrateful granddaughter Xingxing and grandson Xiaoming.
"Officer, and these two children, please take them to their mother's house. I don't accept Li Guojun's children here."
"As you can see, this is a restaurant, and the waiters pass by with hot soup every now and then. It's not safe for the two of them to be running around in the restaurant!"
Li Junsheng's words made sense, and the police officers were also conscientious and responsible. They led Xingxing and Xiaoming to Wang Xiuhua's parents' home.
Xingxing has had a good time at the restaurant these past two days, so she's started making a fuss and doesn't want to leave.
Li Guojun had no time to pay attention to her. He knew that he had been investigated for purchasing a large amount of laxatives, which could be considered "malicious poisoning."
Li Guojun didn't want to go to jail, so he quickly apologized to Li Junsheng and begged Li Junsheng to save him.
"Dad, please save me! I know I was wrong, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have done something so foolish, you can't just abandon me!"
"Help me out, at least give me some money to settle things with these people, otherwise I'll go to jail. You're usually so generous!"
“If I go to jail, people will talk behind my back. We’re all family, and nobody will be happy.”
Li Guojun also threatened and intimidated Li Junsheng, but Li Junsheng was determined to teach Li Guojun a lesson and would not back down because of a few threatening words.
Li Junsheng, with a cold face, sternly rejected Li Guojun.
"Boss, do you know you're an adult and need to take responsibility for your actions? I won't help you this time. You've disappointed me too much. If I hadn't discovered you added laxatives to the soup, do you know what would have happened to me?"
Behind Li Junsheng, Li Chunya and Li Xiaoyu looked indignant, never expecting that Li Guojun would do such a thing.
"If I had known you were capable of something like this, I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted as to let you stay in the shop."
Li Xiaoyu was furious; she was really angry at Li Guojun.
The restaurant that she, her father, her third sister, and her second brother had painstakingly built was almost completely destroyed by Li Guojun. How could she not be angry and terrified!
Li Chunya was the same!
Seeing that Li Junsheng wouldn't help him, Li Guojun was utterly desperate and harbored immense resentment towards Li Junsheng.
"Why! Why are you doing this to me? You're just going to watch me go to jail. If Li Guohua made a mistake, you would definitely take care of him, right? Saying that I should take responsibility for my actions is just an excuse for your favoritism!"
Li Guojun looked at Li Junsheng with a face full of resentment, wishing he could rush up and tear Li Junsheng apart alive.
However, the two policemen around him held him firmly in place, preventing Li Guojun from making any rash moves!
Li Junsheng's gaze fell on the blood-soaked gauze, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his lips. He said coldly, "Now you're not pretending to be lame to play the victim anymore? Do you really think I can't tell you're faking it?"
Li Guojun's face stiffened. He had been too excited and had forgotten that he was pretending to be lame.
This made Li Chunya and Li Xiaoyu even angrier.
"Fine, we couldn't bear to see you lame and homeless, so we let you stay in the restaurant, but it turns out you were faking your lameness! What's real about you anyway?"
Now that things had come to this, Li Guojun stopped pretending and said to Li Xiaoyu with a sinister look, "Stop talking like you're so good to me. In this restaurant, there are clearly better and easier things for me to do, but you make me do the hardest work. Even if my limp is fake, you don't understand how I limp!"
Li Chunya and Li Xiaoyu looked disappointed.
My older brother is hopeless!
Li Junsheng waved his hand, signaling the police officers to take him away; he didn't want to say another word to Li Guojun.
The police took Li Guojun and Xingxing Xiaoming away. After asking around at a nearby pharmacy and clinic, they were able to confirm that Li Guojun had bought a large amount of laxatives the day before!
The police officers also interrogated Li Guojun, who confessed that he was the one who put the laxative in Li Junsheng's soup pot.
They just wanted Li Junsheng to mess up the wedding banquet he was organizing!
With irrefutable witness testimony and Li Guojun's own confession, the police detained Li Guojun on charges of intentional poisoning.
Xingxing and Xiaoming were taken to Wang Xiuhua's place, where the police officers also informed them that Li Guojun had deliberately poisoned them and was about to go to jail.
Upon hearing this news, Wang Xiuhua panicked instantly.
"Li Guojun is going to jail? That won't do! If he goes to jail, how am I supposed to support my two children? Officers, please have mercy and let him go this time!"
Wang Xiuhua grabbed the policeman's arm and tried to persuade him to let Li Guojun go.
The police officers never expected Wang Xiuhua to be such an unreasonable person. Li Guojun had harmed someone, and she actually wanted the bureau to let Li Guojun off this time!
"Comrade, please be rational. The country has laws. He made a mistake and should take responsibility for it. I don't have that much power to say that letting him go will make everything alright."
The child was delivered, and the police officer pried Wang Xiuhua's hands off and left without looking back!
