Gu Yunrou and Su Jingshu were fine; they had seen all sorts of big occasions. Shen Yuzhen was different; she would get nervous.
Ning Bao led Lin Jiayu and Mu Laidi to the study, where Bai Ming and Su Yuanzhi were discussing matters.
"Senior brother, someone is trying to rob our restaurant!"
Ning Bao and the others went inside, carefully closed the door, and then recounted what they had overheard in the private room.
Bai Ming and Su Yuanzhi's expressions immediately turned serious upon hearing this.
"It seems Huang Weidong has already made his move. How about this, I'll go check out the kitchen first. I think the most dangerous and potentially fatal place in a restaurant is the food."
Bai Ming finished speaking and started to walk out, but as soon as he reached the bottom of the stairs, he heard a commotion in the lobby on the first floor. Ning Bao and her group upstairs also heard the noise, and Su Yuanzhi quickly picked up Ning Bao.
"Laidi, Jiayu, you two stay here and don't go out. It's chaotic outside and something bad could easily happen."
The two little girls nodded obediently.
"Okay, we're not going out."
...................
First floor lobby.
"Mother, Mother, what's wrong?"
The lobby on the first floor was in chaos, with a man half-embracing an old woman as they sat on the ground.
Ning Bao, held by Su Yuanzhi, frowned and glanced at the old woman on the ground...................
Dead?
When she saw the ghost of the old woman standing next to her, she became even more certain that the woman was dead.
Ning Bao gently tugged at Su Yuanzhi.
"Third senior brother, put me down."
Su Yuanzhi put Ning Bao on the ground. He knew that Ning Bao had bodyguards around her, so he wasn't worried.
As soon as Ning Bao landed, he ran towards the old woman's spirit and, without saying a word, put the spirit away.
As for the interrogation, we can talk about that later; right now, she's eager to see the excitement.
Manager Sun, who is in charge of the restaurant, has also come over.
Bai Ming, who was originally going to check the ingredients in the kitchen, came over directly. He took out silver needles and prepared to test the half-eaten food on the table for poison.
But when the man saw his actions, he ignored his elderly mother lying on the ground and stood up abruptly.
"Who are you? What are you doing? Are you with them?"
Bai Ming looked up at the man.
"I'm a doctor. Since this lady's problem stemmed from eating, it would be best to examine the food first."
The man pushed Bai Ming backward.
"No need, we've already reported it to the authorities. We'll have to wait for them to arrive before we can investigate."
Bai Ming raised an eyebrow.
“I can investigate my own cases, and the government can also investigate theirs; the two are not mutually exclusive.”
Just as the two sides were arguing, a group of soldiers walked in from outside.
"Who reported it to the authorities?"
The man immediately went to greet the soldiers as they approached.
"Sir, I have reported it to the authorities."
My mother was eating well, and today is her 60th birthday, so I thought I'd treat her to a nice meal.
"I only ate half of it and it's already like this! Your Honor, you must do me justice!"
The official glanced at the old woman on the ground and then instructed the doctor accompanying him.
"Dr. Li, go take a look."
Dr. Li skillfully felt the old woman's vital signs.
"Your Excellency, the person is already dead."
"Mother, my poor mother. It's all my fault for being unfilial. I shouldn't have taken you out for such a big meal."
Don't worry, your son will definitely get justice for you.
The officer glanced at the second-floor stairwell, and Huang Weidong subtly gave him a wink.
Upon receiving a signal from the other party, the officer immediately raised his voice.
"Guards! Someone has died from the food at this seafood restaurant! Arrest everyone in the restaurant, pack up all the food on the tables and take it with you, and also the kitchen staff..."
"Hey! Lord Li, isn't your judgment on this case a bit too perfunctory?"
