"Not to mention that we feed them every day, if I wanted to harm them, I would have done so long ago! There must be something else going on."
"We beg you, Magistrate, to investigate this matter thoroughly and give us justice!"
Before Jun Yexue could even speak after Zhiyin finished speaking, the middle-aged man beside her couldn't wait to say, "It was you who did it! I saw it with my own eyes!"
“He died last night after eating the leftovers you gave him.”
"You're talking nonsense!!!"
"You saw it with your own eyes? Then why didn't the other beggars die after eating them?"
"I could also say that you poisoned him to frame us!"
Zhiyin retorted without any politeness, her eyes showing no kindness towards Manager Li.
"You...you..."
Manager Li was clearly infuriated by Zhiyin's shameless words, and after pointing at her for a long time, he finally managed to utter, "You're rude!!!"
"Smack!!"
Jun Yexue was so annoyed by the noise coming from inside and outside the yamen that she immediately slammed her hand on the table.
"Alright, all of you shut up!! What kind of nonsense is this?"
"The coroner has already gone to conduct tests and examine the beggar's physical condition to find out how he died."
"A conclusion will be reached soon!"
Seeing that everyone had fallen silent because of her actions, Jun Yexue finally smiled with satisfaction, and then looked at Zhiyin:
“Don’t worry, my friend. I already know the whole story. The other beggars who ate your food along with the dead beggar have also testified on your behalf.”
"Once the true cause of this beggar's death is determined, everything will be settled. I will never wrong an innocent person, nor will I let a guilty person go unpunished!"
As she spoke, her dangerous gaze swept towards Manager Li.
However, Manager Li was not afraid at all, after all, he hadn't done anything!
He did indeed envy Zhiyin's dry pot restaurant and even considered having someone deliberately get sick to frame her business, so that customers would be too afraid to go there.
Then his own business will be much better!
But before he could put his plan into action, he accidentally stumbled upon a beggar who had eaten food from Zhiyin Dry Pot Restaurant, and he suddenly lost consciousness with his head lolling to the side.
He knew this was an excellent way to ruin the reputation of Zhiji Dry Pot Restaurant and the best opportunity to eliminate this still-developing competitor, so he decisively reported the case to the police.
