"Master, where do you put this lamp?"

Wen Lou looked at the rabbit lantern in Uncle Wen's hand, thought about it and said, "Let's put it in the study."

"yes."

Tangchi had a dreamless night and slept deeply. When he woke up the next morning, his eyes were blue and black, his eyes were blurred, and he looked like he hadn't woken up.

"Girl, are you awake?" Xiwen asked.

Tangchi yawned and nodded.

"Where were you last night? I slept in a daze, and I seemed to feel that you came back very late."

Tangchi yawned again and said, "No way, you must have made a mistake."

She always felt like she was having an affair.

Xi Wen nodded. "Girl, you can go back to sleep later."

Tangchi nodded, feeling his head was spinning.

After all the waiters and cooks arrived and saw that everything was ready, Tangchi ran back to the backyard and lay on the bed to catch up on his sleep.

Just when Tangchi was drowsily asleep, Xiwen suddenly pushed her awake.

"Let me sleep a little longer!" Tangchi was really tired.

"Girl, something big has happened! Get up quickly!" Xi Wen said anxiously.

"What's the matter..."

"Someone died in our store!"

"What?" Tangchi suddenly lost all sleep and rolled up from the bed.

She took Xi Wen's arm and asked, "What did you say? Say it again!"

The play says: "A guest who just had dinner at our place suddenly died. Someone has already reported it to the official, and official officials will be here soon."

"Let's go! Take me out and have a look!" Tang Chi took Xi Wen and ran out regardless of the fact that his hair was a little messy just after he woke up.

Many people gathered in the hall, shopkeeper Qian and Li Dang and Li Fei were working hard to maintain order.

"The girl is here!" Li Fei shouted when he saw Tangchi.

Shopkeeper Qian looked at Tangchi anxiously and said, "Girl, this..."

They made a way for her.

Although Tangchi was very scared, she was in charge of this store and she had to muster the courage to take a look.

I saw a man in his twenties lying on the ground, with a pale complexion and black lips.

Tangchi turned his face away and almost vomited.

A man stood next to him, looking frightened and anxious. He seemed to be his friend.

"This... looks like he died of poisoning!" one person said.

"Yes, yes, it looks like it to me."

"Did you get poisoned here?"

The people watching were talking a lot.

"Girl...this..." Shopkeeper Qian looked at her.

Tangchi was frightened when she saw a dead person for the first time, but she tried her best to pretend to be calm. Her whole body was tense.

She was so frightened by the dead person that her mind was in chaos and she didn't know what to do.

"What's so big?" Liu Jieyuan walked out of the private room on the second floor.

"Is someone dead?" Liu Jieyuan looked at the person lying on the ground, "It seems that he died of poisoning."

Hearing what Liu Jieyuan said, everyone was more sure that he was poisoned. However, he was actually poisoned in a restaurant, so...

Everyone felt their bodies one after another, afraid of any discomfort.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! Your Excellency is here!" A group of officials came over and opened the way.

Tangchi looked over and saw Wen Lou approaching, surrounded by a group of officials.

Wen Lou looked towards the soup pool.

Tangchi suddenly felt much more at ease.

Wen Lou walked to the deceased patiently, lowered his head and took a look.

The deceased fell down from the chair. Wen Lou looked at the half-eaten hot pot on the table, and then said: "Send the body to the county government and find a widow for autopsy."

Looking at the two pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table, Wen Lou asked: "Who is the friend of the deceased?"

The frightened man standing next to the deceased said: "I."

Wen Lou glanced at him, nodded, and then said: "You stay. This store cannot be opened for the time being. All unrelated personnel should leave immediately to protect the site."

After receiving the order, Wu Shan, Liu Shi and others immediately began to evacuate the crowd.

"Hey! They haven't paid yet, how can they leave!" Xi Wen shouted.

Tangchi no longer cares about paying or not, he just wants to resolve the matter.

On the eleventh day of opening, I didn’t expect to encounter such a thing.

Liu Jieyuan sighed and said regretfully: "I haven't finished the meal yet!" As he said this, he left money on the table.

Liu Jieyuan is a good person.

All the waiters and cooks in the store stayed with Tangchi.

Wen Lou asked someone to check what the deceased had eaten, and after a while, he came to the conclusion that the food was poisonous.

This surprised everyone in the Zhenxilou branch.

"How is that possible?" Tangchi asked excitedly.

After Wen Lou checked everything here, he said: "Tangchi, you come back to the county office with me. The others will go home and wait to be questioned one by one."

"Girl." Shopkeeper Qian glanced at Tangchi worriedly.

Seeing the worried eyes of everyone, Tang Chi felt warm in his heart and was no longer so scared.

Tangchi smiled at them and said: "It's okay, you don't have to worry. When the time comes and I ask questions, just tell the truth."

Anyway, this is not the first time she has entered the county government office.

Wen Lou then looked at the horrified man looking at the body of the deceased and asked, "Did you come to eat with the deceased?"

The man nodded.

"Come back to the Yamen with me."

Tangchi followed a group of officials and left the branch of Zhenxilou and went to the county government office.

The people gathered at the door to watch the fun have not dispersed yet, and there were a lot of discussions along the way.

"I heard that everyone at Zhenhuilou was eating hot pot to death!"

"Isn't it? The food is poisonous? Who would dare to eat it in the future?"

If this time is not handled well, the Zhen Gourmet House branch that Tang Chi has worked so hard to build will be destroyed.

She looked at the uneasy and frightened friend of the deceased in front of her, and felt something was wrong.

Why is it that when we eat together, one of the things in the pot dies, but the other is still alive and well?

Tangchi thought about this problem all the way to the county government office.

After arriving at the county government office, Tangchi was invited into a small room. There was a guard outside the door. She guessed that the deceased's friend was invited into another room.

Tangchi sat down, recalling the death of the man, he was a little scared, but more confused.

Later, the door was opened and Wen Lou walked in.

After realizing that Wen Lou was alone, she felt less uncomfortable.

"How was it?" she asked.

"The poison in the deceased was the same as that found in the pot." Wen Lou replied.

In fact, two friends were eating at the same table, one was dead and the other was alive. There was no way to attribute the problem to the restaurant.

"The pot is poisonous? Then how come his friend is alive? It's definitely not our problem." Tangchi said.

Wen Lou nodded.

Tangchi thought for a while, then frowned and said, "Is it a frame-up?" But if it was a frame-up, it would be too unskilled.
