Chapter 66: The Trouble
"How's it going? Are the test results out?"
Huo Beichuan asked the military doctor in front of him with a cold face.
"Deputy Captain Huo, the preliminary conclusion is that it is not food poisoning, but someone has poisoned us. However, we need another day or two to find out what it is." The military doctor also admired the famous deputy captain in front of him. How could a powerless rural boy get to where he is today?
All the military achievements were obtained with desperate efforts, so not only did he have no objection to Huo Beichuan's intervention in this matter, but he also wanted to get to the bottom of the matter as soon as possible to avoid wrongly accusing Huo Beichuan's wife.
"Thank you for your help. I'll come back in two days. Once we find out what it is, please check whether the military hospital has any purchase records, or whether anyone has taken this kind of medicine."
Huo Beichuan nodded. He knew what kind of person his wife was. There was definitely someone causing trouble. To be honest, he also had some suspicions in his mind. After all, his wife was kind to others. The only ones who disliked her in the army were the two sisters of the Liu family, either Liu Wanzhi or Liu Jiaojiao. Of the two, Liu Wanzhi was the one who was more likely to accomplish this, after all, she was a teacher in the school, so the chances of success were greater.
But there is no definite evidence yet, so there is no way to convict anyone. Huo Beichuan only regrets that he did not try to press Liu Wanzhi to death directly at that time.
"Okay, I understand!" The military doctor agreed very readily.
"Thanks!"
Chen Jintao didn't know that Huo Beichuan had gone to investigate the matter. There had been a lot of rumors in the family compound recently. After all, many of the children in the military district's primary schools were children of soldiers.
Chen Jintao was also very clear that some people would be more rational, but some people would only think that it was her problem.
"Chen Jintao! Come out! Are you hiding at home like a coward when something goes wrong with your cooking?"
"That's right. Our child vomited and had diarrhea after eating the food you cooked. Shouldn't you give us an explanation?"
"Don't hide! Come out now and give us an explanation!"
Outside the door were the shouting of several military wives. Shen Jintao sighed and was about to open the door when she heard Qian Mingfang's voice.
"What are you doing? We don't even know the truth of this matter, but you're here to cause trouble for Miss Shen. What if you end up wrongly accusing her? Will we ever meet again in the future? The army will definitely investigate this matter. You just need to wait quietly for the result. Why make a fuss?"
Qian Mingfang's words did make sense, and some of the military wives showed a hint of hesitation on their faces.
After all, Shen Jintao had a really good reputation. The children were all very happy when they talked about Teacher Taozi, praising her for being beautiful and gentle. Such a person would have no motivation to do such a thing.
But they don’t want their children to suffer like this, so someone has to take responsibility, right?
"You said it nicely! Don't you just want to side with Shen Jintao because you think you have a good relationship with her? Don't think we are afraid of you just because you are the wife of the regiment leader. This matter involves so many children. Whose children are not treasures? Qian Mingfang, I advise you to face the reality. Your own child has also been poisoned. Not only do you not join us in asking for an explanation, but you also help Shen Jintao, the evildoer, to speak. Wouldn't your own child be disheartened if he knew about it?"
Just when everyone was a little shaken, Liu Jiaojiao suddenly spoke.
Qian Mingfang was so angry, "Liu Jiaojiao, you are just making trouble. Even if you want to explain, shouldn't you wait until the results of the investigation come out? Is it appropriate for you to do this now? As you said, my three children have been harmed, and I am not in a hurry. But you, Liu Jiaojiao, you don't even have children, but you are joining in the fun. It's really interesting! You know what you are thinking. You didn't embarrass Xiao Shen at the party last time, and now you are jumping around again. I don't think any of the girls in your Liu family have a simple mind."
"I just think this matter is too unfair to everyone. The children have suffered from the boss, but the culprit is safe and sound. Shouldn't others be allowed to uphold justice?" Liu Jiaojiao also knew that her standing up was obviously aimed at Shen Jintao, but she would definitely not admit it.
Chen Jintao opened the gate and nodded to Qian Mingfang with a smile. She was touched that Qian Mingfang still stood up and spoke for her even though she had become the target of public criticism.
"Hello everyone, I know why you came to my house today, but I have a clear conscience, and I am not the only one who has access to the food. In addition, the food that day has been sent to the military hospital for testing. Please believe in the fairness of the military hospital. They will definitely give an answer of poisoning, and the army will never wrongly accuse a good person and let a bad person go. If this matter is really related to me, I can't stand here and talk to you now, right?"
"Oh! We all know whether it's you or not. If it's not you, I would like to ask, why was there nothing wrong before, but this happened when you went to the cafeteria to cook?"
Liu Jiaojiao spoke again.
Chen Jintao always had a faint smile on her face. "Comrade Liu Jiaojiao, although I don't know where I offended you, causing you to target me again and again, it's good to be a man with a clear conscience. If you think about what you said, you will know how many loopholes there are. You can't just convict me just because of your few words, right?"
Liu Jiaojiao would not let her go just like that. "Even if you didn't do it, you cooked the meal. You should have given everyone an explanation!"
"Yes, I was the one who cooked, but I put the ingredients directly into the pot after preparing them. So many people saw it. If I really did something wrong, would so many people be blind?"
"If you have any complaints about me, you can go to the army and file a complaint. Even if I am taken away for interrogation, I have no complaints at all. But if you can convict someone just by your words, then there is really no fairness in this world. Or is it that the army is controlled by you Liu family members, and you can do whatever you want and punish whoever you want?"
Isn't it just putting a hat on someone? Chen Jintao can do it too.
Her case is not a big deal or a small one, but she will be cleared of all charges in the end. The army will not wrongly accuse anyone for no reason.
"You! Stop talking nonsense! Aren't we talking about your business now? Don't try to change the subject!" Liu Jiaojiao turned pale with fright. She didn't dare to respond at all. It would be easy for something bad to happen.
