An hour later, Hu Youxiang entered the pharmacy with several fully armed police officers.

There were a lot of people coming this time. There was a police car parked near Yao Street, as well as several special motorcycles of the Public Security Bureau.

With so many people coming at once, it quickly attracted everyone's attention.

They gathered at the door of Wu Yuanjun's shop, craning their necks to look inside.

Many people are whispering and many are speculating as to why.

"What happened in the store? Why are there so many police officers here all of a sudden?"

"Could it be that the shopkeeper has killed someone? This is a bit scary!"

"I was wondering why the store was closed in the middle of the day. It turns out someone was causing trouble at home."

Some of these people are curious, while others are simply gloating.

Ping An Tang has been in Yao Street for some time and therefore has accumulated many regular customers.

In addition, the standards for purchasing medicinal materials in their store are higher than those of other stores, and the prices they sell are more reasonable, so their business has always been very popular.

There are even some specialized herbal medicine dealers who have established long-term trading relationships with their store.

Sometimes the store seems a little deserted, but business is still coming in.

And they were doing big business. They opened a store near Heian Hall, and I could often only watch them eat meat while I could only drink some soup.

It's okay in the short term, but there will definitely be complaints over time.

This time, when seeing the police coming to the door, many people were gloating.

Of course, there were also some people who had a good relationship with them, and they felt very nervous when they saw this situation.

A cordon was set up at the door and they could only stand outside and watch.

The police led their men into the inner courtyard, but even if they stretched their necks as far as they could, they could not see what was going on inside the house.

Everyone was waiting anxiously, some hoped that Ping An Tang would suffer misfortune, while others hoped that the store would be safe.

Hu Youxiang and his men came in, and Wu Yuanjun, who had just been sorting the medicinal herbs, immediately trotted over to greet them.

Everyone had a serious look on their faces, and Wu Yuanjun followed behind without daring to say a word.

They brought the police to the crime scene and saw a little girl sitting in the yard playing with a dog.

Not far from her, there was a man tied up like a dumpling, wriggling madly on the ground.

The contrast of the scene before them was so strong that everyone was distracted for a moment.

When Ye Qingtao saw the police coming, she quickly hugged Xiao Hei and stood up.

There were still two pieces of jerky left in the bag. Xiao Hei originally planned to take them in one bite, but he was unexpectedly picked up suddenly.

It struggled to get into the bag, and then its whole body fell into it.

"Comrade Public Security, this is the man who just committed the crime. He was holding a knife and looked very ferocious, so we tied him up."

Wu Yuanjun stepped forward and took the initiative to explain the whole story.

Two police officers helped the man on the ground up. They tore off the mask covering his face and saw that mud and sand were constantly coming out of his mouth.

The mud and sand were mixed with gravel, blocking his entire mouth tightly.

The man's entire mouth turned red and was slightly swollen.

After he regained his freedom, he kept spitting things into his mouth, and he couldn't help feeling nauseous and retching.

The broken stones and debris kept moving in his mouth with his breathing, and the inner wall of his mouth had been worn away in several places.

In the end, what he vomited was no longer mud and sand, but mouthfuls of blood.

The whole scene looked somewhat hideous and terrifying. Ye Qingtao stood quietly aside holding Xiao Hei.

She already knew that this would be the result of gagging her mouth with gravel.

And as he breathes, those fine pieces of dirt and stones are likely to enter his lungs.

As for whether it will cause any sequelae to the body in the future, this is not her concern.

The man finally spit out everything in his mouth and finished listening to Wu Yuanjun's story. He kept twisting his body and struggling violently.

"Song Qingfa is the one who didn't promote me or increase my salary. He deserves to die!"

Until this time the man had not realized his mistake.

He became even more excited when he saw someone rescued him.

"Song Qingfa is not a human being. I have followed him for so many years, but he promoted others instead of me. If he dares to bring me out this time, I will kill him!"

The man kept talking nonsense, and the people present soon figured out the whole thing from his intermittent words.

Ye Qingtao looked at the symptoms of the man in front of her and found that it was a typical case of irritability.

People with this disease are very irritable and a bit self-centered. If others speak or act slightly disobeying their will, they are likely to react violently.

He said that he had followed Song Qingfa for many years but was not promoted in the end.

However, Ye Qingtao felt that it must be because Song Qingfa discovered his emotional instability, but out of consideration for their friendship, he did not think of firing him.

I didn’t expect that this person didn’t realize his problem at all, and people with his personality wouldn’t feel satisfied.

He only knew that he had not achieved his goal, and he was very angry inside.

Perhaps something Song Qingfa said or something trivial happened that triggered the murder.

The people from the Public Security Bureau checked Song Qingfa's wounds. His injuries were quite serious and it was indeed not suitable to move him.

They checked the scene and went outside to check for blood.

There were still quite a few people gathered at the door, and the blood that Song Qingfa had shed when he first came over had almost been stepped on.

After the people from the Public Security Bureau learned the details of the situation, they took the crazy man away.

Everyone was very confused when they saw them leave like that and Wu Yuanjun continued to run the shop as if nothing had happened.

After the cordon was removed, someone bravely walked into the store to inquire about the situation.

"A murderer has escaped."

No matter why people asked, Wu Yuanjun always dismissed them with this sentence.

As they asked more and more times, Wu Yuanjun became obviously impatient.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch and not wanting to stay and see Wu Yuanjun's expression, everyone left immediately.

Ye Qingtao walked out from the backyard holding Xiao Hei, her face looking a little solemn.

"Song Qingfa is still in critical condition and may not wake up in the short term."

Wu Yuanjun nodded silently. He wanted to pretend to be calm, but couldn't help asking.

"So when do you expect him to wake up?"

The surgery was performed by Ye Qingtao, and she also did the examination.

At this time, she was the person who knew Song Qingfa's physical condition best.

"If you're lucky, you'll wake up in three days. If you're unlucky..."

Ye Qingtao didn't say anything else, as Wu Yuanjun had already nodded with a look of understanding.

"It'd be better if he wakes up. Otherwise, if someone dies in my store, I won't be able to sell it even if I want to."

It was originally a serious conversation, but Wu Yuanjun interrupted it and turned it into a joke.

"Don't worry, you won't die. At most you'll become a vegetable."
