Chapter 245 Addiction



"It's you?" Qiao Ruoxi was a little surprised.

It turned out to be the evil ghost in red that had been following Yu Jinghe!

"There's something wrong with this bottle of mineral water." The red-clothed ghost showed one eye from his thick black hair and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"How do you know?" Qiao Ruoxi asked back.

The red-clothed female ghost pointed at Yu Jing and his assistant Xiao Ding who were not far away. "That guy is suspicious. He has been using a bucket of water to soak this bottle of mineral water for several days. I saw him add something to the water with my own eyes."

"I thought he wanted to harm Jinghe, so I kept an eye on him. I didn't expect his target to be you."

"Of course, it was that kid who hinted to Jinghe to send you the water."

Qiao Ruoxi finally understood: "Are you trying to distance yourself from Mr. Yu? Do you really like him?"

The female ghost in red was startled, and the exposed eye was hidden behind her black hair again.

"I've already delivered my message. I can't stop you from drinking it." After saying that, he was about to float away.

"Wait a minute, I haven't said thank you yet."

The female ghost in red paused slightly.

"By the way, can't you tell me your name?" Qiao Ruoxi tilted her head and asked curiously.

"You don't need to know who I am, and I'm not doing this to help you."

After saying this, the red-clothed ghost chased Yu Jinghe away without looking back.

Qiao Ruoxi touched her chin with interest.

The main purpose of this red-clothed ghost was obviously not to help her, but to worry that something bad would happen to her if she drank the bottle of water, and the blame would be traced back to Actor Yu.

There are very few living souls that turn into evil spirits simply out of resentment, and there are even fewer evil spirits that silently sacrifice for someone without leaving a name.

interesting!

After getting in the nanny car back to the hotel, Qiao Ruoxi opened the search bar on her phone and got a piece of little-known news.

It turns out that bottled water that has been soaked in contaminated water is not drinkable.

The bottle cap seems to be sealed, but in fact it only serves as a reinforcement. During the soaking process, the contaminated water will contaminate the entire bottle of water through "capillary phenomenon", and the contamination rate can even be as high as more than 40%.

This is why bottled water that has been soaked in floodwaters after a disaster can no longer be sold on the market.

Xiao Ding actually used this principle to create a bottle of mineral water that looked sealed but was actually poisonous.

This is really hard to guard against! Qiao Ruoxi couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

I just don't know what's in this bottle of water.

Poison? Or something else...

After getting out of the car, Qiao Ruoxi quietly unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and spilled half of it.

Then she saw Xiao Ding standing at the hotel entrance.

Although he took the initiative to greet her, his eyes were fixed on the mineral water bottle in her hand.

"It's quite cold, why are you standing here?" Qiao Ruoxi asked knowingly.

Xiao Ding smiled foolishly, but his eyes could not help but evade: "Hello Sister Xi, I ordered takeout. I was too hungry, so I came down early to wait. Mr. Yu doesn't like me ordering takeout, can you please not tell him?"

Qiao Ruoxi readily agreed, but she became even more certain that there was something wrong with the bottle of water.

Seeing Qiao Ruoxi about to leave, Xiao Ding couldn't help but point to the mineral water bottle: "Have you drunk this water?"

Qiao Ruoxi was amused but didn't expose it: "I drank it. Xiaoyuan said you put it in the insulated box in advance. I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful. I haven't had time to say thank you yet."

Xiao Ding seemed relieved and grinned: "I also learned this from other seniors. I didn't expect to be able to use it. It's cold outside. Sister Xi, please go in quickly."

"Okay, then you wait patiently." Qiao Ruoxi raised her eyebrows and walked straight into the hotel.

After entering the hotel room, the first thing Qiao Ruoxi did was to scan the room with a detector. This has become her daily routine.

After dismantling the pinhole cameras and eavesdropping devices for several days in a row, the other party finally chose to give up.

After putting down the detector, Qiao Ruoxi took out her cell phone and called Zhuo Yanting.

"Officer Zhuo, there's new progress. Someone gave me a bottle of drugged mineral water." Qiao Ruoxi went straight to the point.

Zhuo Yanting immediately asked nervously, "Drugated mineral water? Master, are you okay?"

"I didn't drink the water, but I'm very curious about what kind of drugs they put in it. This might be a good opportunity for me to get close to them."

Zhuo Yanting was shocked: "Great God, they are going to kill you, and you still plan to approach them? Are you trying to save your life?"

"If they wanted to harm me directly, they wouldn't have given me this bottle of water in public. After all, your special task force has been keeping a close eye on us lately. They wouldn't have done something so stupid."

Zhuo Yanting vaguely understood something from Qiao Ruoxi's words, but he couldn't figure it out. If it wasn't poison, what could it be?

"By the way, I have a classmate from the police academy in Zhangcheng who has switched to biological research. I could ask him for help!"

After a while, someone disguised as a crew member came to the door and took away some of the mineral water.

That evening, the test results came out.

This result is undoubtedly shocking.

"This is an addictive drug originating from Country T. It once flowed into China through the black market. By the time the problem was discovered, it had already spread over a small area."

"But just when the police issued a decree and launched a massive crackdown, the drug suddenly disappeared, and all leads were cut off."

"A year ago, this drug was once again circulating on the market. The drug enforcement department sent out their best personnel to conduct an in-depth investigation. When they reached the vicinity of the Golden Triangle, our entire team was wiped out. No one survived, including my best friend..."

When he said this, Zhuo Yanting's voice was choked with sobs.

"What happened next?" Qiao Ruoxi asked again.

"There was no further information. All clues were cut off again, and this drug disappeared from the market once again..."

There was another long silence.

"Don't be discouraged. Don't we have another clue now?" Qiao Ruoxi's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the silence.

"This is no longer a single clue. This drug is clearly related to the genetically modified church."

"And my speculation is correct. They don't intend to take my life for the time being. They want to control me through this drug. Or to put it simply, they want to squeeze some value out of me."

Hearing this, Zhuo Yanting seemed to wake up suddenly.

"Master, you're not thinking... This is absolutely not possible. It's too dangerous! So many professionally trained elites have been killed in this. You..."

Qiao Ruoxi smiled: "You know, I'm not an ordinary person."

"You still want to avenge your friend? This is the only way! If you and I agree, please send me the clinical response data for this drug."

After saying that, Qiao Ruoxi hung up the phone and gave the choice to Zhuo Yanting.

On the other end, Zhuo Yanting was fidgeting as he looked at the drug test report.

He knew the seriousness of the matter. Logically, he should report it directly to his superiors and let relevant professionals investigate and follow the formal procedures.

But as Qiao Ruoxi said, this may be their only chance to make a breakthrough.
