C79 (1/2)
Tang Rong was innocent.
I stayed here mainly to talk to him.
The other workers all got off work and left one by one. Tang Rongzheng still had a few goods in front of him. After he finished packing these goods, he would get off work.
At this rate, he was half an hour late for work.
This half an hour should have been his rest time.
By the time he was finished with his work, the sky had already darkened.
He let out a long breath, stretched, and twisted his neck, exhausted by the hard work of the day. But I knew that when he came home, he would smile and tell his parents that he wasn't tired at all.
He turned around and saw me and Li Fengyun. He was stunned for a moment and then stepped forward.
”You were looking for me? ”Oh, you must be the police. What happened at our bar that kept us open?”
It seemed that he had been busy all day, and had not yet figured out that the wine in the bar had been drugged. He wasn't like Ding Zhuang and the others who only knew how to brag and his sources of information were broad.
”We're not the police. We're here to talk to you about something, is it convenient?” Li Fengyun asked.
He hesitated for a few seconds, then took out his phone to check, then said, ”That's fine, I'll call home. I said I'd be a bit late.”
Li Fengyun said, ”Yes, you go ahead and call. Do you have time for a drink?”
Tang Rong looked confused, ”I'm not familiar with you guys …”
”Bro, don't worry, we're informants who work for the police. The main reason we came to find you was to find out more about that bar, so help us. If we can't get the information we need, we can't keep up.”
Under Li Fengyun's coaxing, Tang Rong just agreed. After he called home, he took off his work clothes and changed his clothes before leaving the factory with us.
Arriving at Old Mo's restaurant, Li Fengyun ordered a few dishes with great familiarity and asked for two bottles of white wine. The three sat down and poured some wine. After introducing themselves, they prepared to start.
”Actually, the reason I went to the police to check your bar last night was because there's something wrong with your bar's wine.” ”No,” I said.
”Ah?” What's the problem? Is it expired? ”It shouldn't be. They're all recent purchases. The bar business is not bad, and there hasn't been much wine in storage. They're very quick to sell …”
”Not really.”
So I told him about the alcohol in the bar being drugged, and of course I didn't say we'd suspected him before.
I watched his expression as I recounted the story, and when I mentioned the fact that he had detected celecoxibine in the wine, he looked confused and asked me what it was, and when I explained the toxicity of celecoxibine, he was taken aback.
Observing his appearance, Tang Rong was indeed innocent.
Li Fengyun went to the toilet, probably to report the work to Xu Haoqing.
”Shu Jing, you said that someone had done something to our bar? Who was it? ”That's unlikely. Those wines are still intact …” Tang Rong said.
”Oh right, when you bought them, did you have problems with the wine?” Didn't the police check our access to alcohol? Did the supply side do something? ” he said again.
That is to say, those wines were delivered to your bar before being tampered with. As you have said, those wines are already packaged, and I see that you are also working in the packaging factory, I just want to ask, professionally speaking, if you want to open up those jars of wine and apply the medicine, then the packaging will be restored, wouldn't that be difficult? What process or equipment do you need? ”
Tang Rong thought for a while and said, ”Although I've never had much of the wine in the shop, I've seen the packaging. That packing method isn't that difficult, but it's very difficult for people who don't have the relevant knowledge to do it. ”Ai, I don't know who got full. Doing this kind of thing would only harm others and not themselves …”
Li Fengyun came out of the bathroom and asked what we were talking about.
”It's nothing. I just asked Rongzheng how to wrap those jars up after taking the medicine.”
Li Fengyun said, ”Oh, by the way, Rongzheng, who do you think is the most suspicious person in your bar? Is it possible that Zhao Yao did it?” Because of this, the police think it's the people inside the bar, and outsiders don't have the opportunity or the time. ”
After thinking for a moment, Tang Rong said, ”If others don't say it, then say it's Zhao Yao, it shouldn't be him. He really can't do that kind of thing, our boss, Zhao Yao, although he's a bit harsh and can sometimes look for trouble, in general, he's still a good citizen who follows the law.”
