The customers were all unhappy:
"Oh? We've been waiting in line for half an hour."
"What do we need your boss and chef for when we're eating hot pot? Let them fight it out, just give us the broth, and we'll cook it ourselves."
Jian Zhizhen, who was standing to the side, was also unwilling to leave. She had walked until her legs were weak before she came here.
She took the initiative to ask, "What happened to your boss? Why did he get into a fight? Why don't you send your boss to the police station? We customers can just eat it ourselves."
Many customers waiting for a table were also intrigued and eagerly listened to the reason for the fight.
The waiter glanced at the ice cream parlor next door, raised his hand to block the view, and whispered, "My boss's delivery truck and the ice cream parlor owner's delivery truck returned around the same time last night and were both parked in the back alley. Both vehicles were fine at the time, but when I went to the back alley just now, the ice cream parlor owner's truck was completely smashed! Flattened like a steel plate!"
"Oh, is that so? Did your boss cause the accident?"
The waiter said, "The ice cream parlor owner said it was our boss who hit it, because there were no other cars around. But our boss insists he didn't hit it, and since both cars are old and beat-up, and neither owner has a dashcam, there's no way to prove it, so they started fighting!"
"Since there are only two cars in the back alley, I bet it was your boss who crashed it."
"Maybe the ice cream parlor owner was jealous of the hot pot restaurant owner's good business, so he crashed his car into the wall, turning it into a metal plate, and then framed the hot pot restaurant owner?"
The onlookers had their own guesses.
Jian Zhizhen thought for a moment, then glanced down at the ground.
This place is indeed very old; even the ground is full of potholes and has been neglected for years. There are even water stains in one of the potholes.
Just as she had a guess in her mind, Qin Yubai, who was next to her, looked away from the device and said to Jian Zhizhen, "I just checked, it rained this morning."
Jian Zhizhen smiled as she looked at him, her eyes crinkling slightly.
I knew we were thinking the same thing again.
She took Qin Yubai's hand and turned to the waiter, saying, "Could you take us to the scene? We'll help you solve the case."
