Chapter 23 We police officers are strictly trained...
Those customers who were originally sitting on the stools, happily chewing on pig's trotters.
now.
You look at me and I look at you.
They were testing each other's movements.
The pig's trotters are still greasy and shiny.
The diffused aroma molecules still lingered domineeringly around their noses.
The remaining marinade and thick gelatinous texture in their mouths also made their stomachs urge to eat more.
For a while.
Everyone was tormented by this hot potato, but couldn't bear to eat it.
Some people began to secretly blame the police in their hearts.
Why didn’t you come earlier or later, but at this time?
They are in a dilemma whether to eat or not.
This is even more painful than killing them.
As time passed, the atmosphere changed subtly.
A big man with a tattoo of a big blue dragon on his arm.
With a "bang", he threw the two boxes of pig's trotters in his hands onto the table.
He stood up and shouted with his eyes wide open.
"The police are here, how can I eat this? Give me back my money! Give me back now!"
A thin man next to him shuddered with fear.
He quickly swallowed the pig's trotter that he had not yet finished chewing and spoke.
"Big brother, you want to return it, right? Then can I buy yours?"
As he spoke, he leaned forward suddenly.
A hand has been extended.
"Are you crazy, kid? You're so anxious about this? What if they add ice? What will you do?"
The big man with tattoos glared at the skinny guy, his face full of disappointment.
When the thin man heard this, his outstretched hand suddenly froze in mid-air.
Then, his eyes became firm again.
"Brother, I don't believe there is anything wrong with this pig's trotter.
This taste, tsk tsk... Even if there are risks, I accept it."
After saying that, he still paid the money resolutely.
He grabbed the two boxes of pig's trotters and put them in front of him.
The thin man glanced at the three policemen in front of Su Chen's stall.
You can arrest this boss or not.
I paid anyway.
It’s not illegal to eat two bites, right?!
If he doesn't eat it now, he's afraid he won't be able to eat it again in the future.
The crowd was making so much noise that the policemen also looked at them sideways.
Although I also have some doubts about the ingredients of pig's trotters.
But out of duty, one of them spoke up.
"Everyone, be quiet! Before the test results come out, any random speculation will only tarnish the reputation of the business and even cause unnecessary panic. Please be patient."
The police's words were powerful, and the noise at the scene suddenly became much quieter.
They removed the cap from the rapid test kit.
Insert the test paper into the marinade to be tested and let it sit for 15 minutes to see the result.
Two bars are negative and one bar is positive.
It is quite convenient to operate.
After a while, the results came out.
“It’s negative!”
As soon as this serious voice came out.
There was a burst of cheers from the crowd.
The desire for pig's trotters was rekindled in everyone's eyes.
The action of eating pig's trotters instantly jumped from the pause button to the play button.
They opened their mouths wide and bit down hard, as if to make up for the enjoyment that had just been interrupted.
at the same time.
The expressions of the very few vendors who hoped that Su Chen would be sentenced and fined suddenly darkened.
The light in his eyes disappeared in an instant.
Someone stared in the direction of Su Chen's dining car and took a deep puff of his cigarette.
how?
It was such a big deal, but he was suddenly acquitted.
It makes people feel empty inside.
Two clever customers rushed to the stall.
"Boss, I want one with Sichuan pepper flavor and one with original flavor."
"One is peppercorn, and the other is sweet and spicy."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
They were not originally supposed to be in line, but now they have taken advantage of the opportunity.
Seeing this, others rushed forward, cursing in their hearts.
Aren't you two disgusting?
He is so young, yet he still resorts to sneak attacks. He has no martial ethics!
There are only ten in total, and four are missing.
This time, the situation is very dangerous.
There was no expression on Su Chen's face, and he put away his phone calmly.
He stood up and was about to scoop out the pig's trotters for the customer.
But what I didn’t expect was.
The leading policeman raised his hands and made a quiet gesture.
"Everyone, don't worry, the stall owner can't sell it today."
As he said that, he turned around and spoke to Su Chen.
"Hello, the rapid test is only a preliminary screening and its accuracy is relatively limited. Since this is a matter of great concern to people's livelihood, we still need to send samples for routine testing."
"To confirm that it does not contain any illegal substances or harmful additives."
"The results are expected to be out tomorrow morning. If the test is clear, we will lift the suspicion against the merchant and apologize."
Su Chen nodded.
Naturally, there is no problem with things produced by the system.
It's quite troublesome to have such a thing happen.
"I understand. This is also for the sake of everyone's food safety. I believe the police will definitely clear my name."
soon.
The three policemen exchanged glances.
He lifted the pot directly and dragged it into the police car.
Su Chen was speechless for a moment.
Didn’t I hear that it was just sampling and testing?
How come the bucket was taken away at the same time!
You took my stuff away.
I still have to set up a stall tomorrow?
…
An hour later.
A large bucket of pig's trotters was sent to a professional food testing laboratory.
In the laboratory.
Staff members wearing white lab coats, masks and gloves placed pig trotter samples on the operating table.
They picked up a knife and cut off a small piece of pig's trotter for each taste.
Place in a test tube and prepare for chemical composition analysis.
at this time.
In the hall next to the laboratory, Su Chen's thermos was placed on the table.
Several policemen were sitting there blankly, waiting for the test results.
In just a few minutes, they were bombarded with the rich aroma of the braised food.
I had to suppress the urge in my heart and keep repeating it in my mind.
Hold on, hold on, we are here for inspection.
This thing is evidence!
Be determined and able to resist temptation.
Don't embarrass yourself here.
But the fragrance was too tempting.
Their throats couldn't help but roll up and down, and their noses twitched involuntarily.
“Mmm…it smells so good!”
A young policeman couldn't help sighing.
Another policeman echoed this.
"Yeah, this fragrance is going to make people dizzy!"
"It smells so good I can hardly sit still!"
There's not much air circulation here.
They all gasped.
"Slurp~Slurp~"
"cough!"
The leading policeman coughed lightly, and took the opportunity to cough with a clenched fist to quietly wipe away the saliva overflowing from the corner of his mouth.
"You two should restrain yourself a little. If you can't, go outside and smoke a cigarette to relieve yourself."
"You have received rigorous training."
The two young policemen responded and walked out the door together.
Took a few deep breaths of fresh air.
Only then did I feel relieved.
"Oh! This smell is so strong, I guess it must have been poured by the pound. By the way, if we close this case, will we get a promotion?"
"You think too much! You are just an investigator, not the one who solves the case."
