Chapter 124 - 124 Conspiracy

124 Conspiracy

Not long after Xiao Liang left, the five officers who had gone to investigate returned. They had reported the results to Ming Zhiyan.

The few of them spoke very softly. Those who were far away could not hear clearly. Wang Fugui anxiously stretched his neck and looked at them as he spoke. He wanted to know what they were talking about. He wished that he could break free from the officer who had grabbed him and go forward.

Why were there so many troubles? That damned girl was really too much. Could she just give him the money? If he took the money, he would definitely go far away. Why was she so serious? She was really stingy.

At this moment, Wang Fugui was full of resentment towards Jian Qingqing.

After listening to the words of the officer, Ming Zhiyan and Jian Qingqing’s faces turned cold.

“Wang Fugui, you and Wang Fuyou were gamblers who were chased because of your debts three days ago, right?” Ming Zhiyan asked coldly.

Wang Fugui was stunned. He kept his face straight and did not say anything. As long as he kept his mouth shut, he would not make any mistakes.

Ming Zhiyan did not need him to answer. He continued to ask, “Then how did you have the money to come here to eat hotpot? Jian Food Shop isn’t cheap. A hotpot starts at three taels of silver. Did someone pay you to come here for something?”

Wang Fugui subconsciously denied, “No! I came here on my own accord.”

After saying that, he then realized that he did not have the money for this restaurant, but he could not stay silent. Otherwise, he would be tacitly admitting it. He looked at Ming Zhiyan with a little resentment.

“I heard that you went to Doctor Niu’s place yesterday to buy laxatives. Then, why did you buy laxatives?”

Wang Fugui wanted to deny it again, but Ming Zhiyan interrupted him. “We’ll know if this is true just by asking Doctor Niu. It’s useless even if you deny it.”

Wang Fugui’s words were stuck in his throat. He continued to stare at him without saying anything.

“Someone saw that someone handed you a bag of silver three days ago. After that, you came to Jian Food Shop to make an appointment to eat. Is this true?”

Wang Fugui still did not say anything.

Ming Zhiyan looked at ‘Doctor Li’. “Li Ping, are you really a doctor?”

‘Doctor Li’, who had been hiding behind the chair and rejoicing that no one had noticed him, trembled when Ming Zhiyan called out to him. He crawled out trembling.

When he met Ming Zhiyan’s eyes, he immediately knelt on the ground and bowed, “Spare my life, My Lord! I didn’t do it on purpose. It was Wang Fugui who paid me to come here and say that Wang Fugui had been poisoned. I don’t know anything! Please spare my life, My Lord!”

With trembling hands, he took out three copper coins from his pocket and handed them over with tears streaming down his face. “My lord, I really don’t know anything! This is the money that Wang Fugui gave me. It’s all here. Please spare my life, My Lord!”

As he said that, everyone suddenly smelled the faint smell of urine. They looked at the spot where Li Ping was kneeling and saw a puddle of water.

This matter had little to do with Li Ping. They did not know why Wang Fugui would find such a timid person. She said indifferently, “You can go.”

Li Ping quickly threw down the money and was about to run away.

Jian Qingqing suddenly called out to him, “Wait!”

Li Ping suddenly froze and asked in a trembling voice, “Is, is there anything else?”

Jian Qingqing pointed at the puddle of water and said, “Clean it up before you leave.”

Li Ping immediately crawled back and randomly used his clothes to clean up the liquid. He was afraid that Jian Qingqing would call out to him again, so he quickly ran away.

Everyone looked at him in disgust. Those who loved cleanliness almost vomited. This was too disrespectful.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
