Chapter 1189

It's getting closer to the truth.

At least in the process of investigating the restaurant, we found that the takeaway rider who died in a car accident actually died of a strange cause.

Although from the perspective of traffic police surveillance video, it was because the truck was in a hurry to deliver the takeout, so it forced to cross the road before the truck fully entered the lane, which eventually led to the accident.

Take away riders have also paid for their lives.

However, the focus of attention in the follow-up is on another delivery boy.

It is also because another takeout boy took the order of the takeout boy who died in the car accident and contacted the restaurant owner to make a new takeout and deliver it to the customer, which was talked about by the public.

In addition to media reports, that kind-hearted take away boy has become a synonym for the warmth of this cold winter.

But Gu Chen found out the truth of the takeaway brother's death from the surveillance video, that is, the accident caused by poisoning.

But who is the killer now? The search seems to be shrinking.

Gu Chen glanced at the fat boss of the restaurant and asked, "where's your chef? Can you get him out for a second? "

"No problem." In order to get rid of the suspicion of his restaurant, the fat boss of the restaurant now responds to Gu Chen's request.

He went to the kitchen door, knocked on the door and said, "master Xie, please come out."

"All right." A fat man, who was helping to wash vegetables in the back kitchen, immediately put down his work, wiped his hands covered with water on his apron and went directly to the cashier.

See a few police around here, Xie Shifu immediately expression a Zheng, also weak asked the boss: "boss, what's the situation?"

"The takeout we made for Ms. Zhou yesterday was highly toxic." Fat boss leaned against master Xie's ear and whispered.

"No way." Hearing the boss's words, master Xie shrunk back and retorted: "how is this possible? How can my cooking be poisonous? "

"Shh! You must keep your voice down Afraid of being heard, fat boss is also a quick reminder.

But master Xie glanced at the police around him and seemed to feel that they were looking for him. So he quickly clarified with the fat boss in a low voice: "I said boss, I really didn't poison the food. What do you think I'm trying to do?"

"I didn't say it was you." The fat boss of the restaurant couldn't make it clear at the moment, so he quickly looked at Gu Chen and said, "Comrade police, he is the chef of our restaurant. If you have anything to ask, just ask him."

"All right." Gu Chen took out his mobile phone, showed the four takeout boys' monitoring screenshots in front of him, and asked, "do you know these people?"

"Yes, delivery people. These people often come to the store to pick up orders."

"Did you make the order of Ms. Zhou Xiwen yesterday?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"Zhou Xiwen?" Master Xie frowned and scratched his cheek to think.

The fat boss was afraid that he would be confused at this time, so he quickly reminded: "I put every order on you. What Zhou Xiwen asked for last night was green pepper and shredded pork for rice. Wasn't she knocked over by the last take out boy because of a car accident? Then another take away rider called me and said, "let's make a new one. Remember?"

"Oh, the order? I know when you say that, boss. " After hearing the fat boss's words, master Xie nodded silently, and then he remembered:

"yes, I made Zhou Xiwen's order, and I also made the back order."

"Did you take over the whole process?" Asked officer Wang.

Realizing that the fat boss said before that the dishes contained highly toxic substances, master Xie quickly waved his hand and took the initiative to clarify: "wronged, this really has nothing to do with me."

"It's all said. We're still investigating the matter. You just need to make it clear." Lu Weiwei also has no good airway.

I feel that the chef is brave enough.

After hearing Lu Weiwei's words, master Xie tried to calm down and said slowly, "if you want to say that it's really me who cooks the whole course, I can pack anything. I didn't handle it. It's all these take away riders who are in a hurry. They help to operate it."

"Take away riders help you pack?" Gu Chen expressed curiosity.

Master Xie nodded and said, "that's right. We usually put the dishes into the take out box. As for packing, I seldom do it."

"Because on the one hand, there is too much work on hand, and on the other hand, those riders who are in a hurry hold the packing bags in their hands."

"As soon as we put our dishes in a box, they immediately pack them skillfully. This is an unwritten rule in our store, and we are not surprised."

"Then you pour the dishes into the packing box. Is the delivery rider responsible for the packing?" Gu Chen asked.

"Well Well, it seems so. Anyway, it was very busy at that time. The kitchen was noisy everywhere. I don't know what happened at that time, but I remember that Xiao Zhao seemed to be beside him. "

"Xiao Zhao?" Gu Chen frowned."Yes, that's Xiao Zhao, who called the boss to repast the meal, and he delivered the meal for the colleague in the accident. The TV station also interviewed him."

"Are you sure there is only Xiao Zhao around him?" The fat boss of the restaurant was afraid that he might have mistaken the suspect, so he quickly asked for evidence.

Master Xie nodded silently: "it shouldn't be wrong. When you say that, I seem to remember again. Yes, it was Xiao Zhao who packed the order and left. Then Xiao Liao, the one who died in a car accident, looked for his order everywhere."

"I kept asking at that time, but I was too busy to take care of other orders."

"In addition to the noisy kitchen, I let him look for it again. Not long after that, Xiao Zhao came back and said that he had taken the wrong order. The one I was going to fry was his order."

"And then?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"And then? Then Xiao Liao took his order and ran out of the kitchen. Then Xiao Zhao got his order

"Later, the boss came to the kitchen and said that Xiao Liao had a car accident and no one was left. Xiao Zhao asked us to make a new takeout and he came to get it."

"So, from the time you finished the green pepper meat cover and poured it, until the packaging process, it was because Xiao Zhao mistakenly took the order and delayed the time?" Gu Chen looked up at master Xie and asked him.

Master Xie nodded silently: "it should be, from the beginning to the end, I'm very busy in cooking. Even if you poison me, I don't have time to poison."

"Bah, who let you poison? Lao Xie, can you stop using metaphors? " I feel that Lao Xie's words are unobstructed, and the fat boss of the restaurant also stops in a hurry.

Master Xie looks aggrieved and doesn't dare to talk any more.

However, at this time, Gu Chen and others looked at each other, as if they were aware of the trickiness.

Lu Weiwei quickly asked master Xie: "Xiao Zhao, who mistakenly took the delivery order, how long does he have between taking the delivery and returning it?"

"Er..." Master Xie scratched his head and thought lightly: "I don't know exactly how long, but Xiao Liao has been looking for orders for a long time. How can it take three or four minutes?"

"Three or four minutes?" Gu Chen smell speech, silently nodded: "three or four minutes, enough for this Xiao Zhao to complete the poisoning operation."

Glancing at the fat boss of the restaurant, Gu Chen added: "I remember that Xiao Zhao, who took the order by mistake, and Xiao Liao, who died in a car accident, almost came out from the back kitchen one after another. There was no interval of three or four minutes, at most one minute."

"That's right." Listening to Gu Chen's words, master Xie seemed to think of something again, so he quickly said: "Xiao Zhao took the wrong order from Xiao Liao. After returning it to him, I finished Xiao Zhao's order in less than a minute. Xiao Zhao went out with his order, and should be separated from Xiao Liao by less than a minute."

"Because after all, Xiao Liao has been looking for orders and takeout for a few minutes, and I've finished Xiao Zhao's share in these minutes."

"That's right." After hearing master Xie's words, Gu Chen finally found the flaw and quickly asked, "are there any other exits for your kitchen?"

"Yes, there is one. If the police want to see it, I'll take you there."

The fat boss of the restaurant is afraid that the police investigation will be unfavorable at the moment, so he also takes the initiative and goes directly to the back kitchen of the restaurant.

At this moment, several kitchen cleaning aunts are busy with their work. When they see the police coming, they just look up and continue to be busy with their work.

"That's it." Fat boss of the restaurant, pointing directly to a small door on the right.

Gu Chen took a few steps and asked, "after Xiao Zhao took the wrong order from Xiao Liao, which direction did he go out from? Is that the passage to the dining hall on the left? Or the back door on the right? "

"It should be the aisle leading to the dining hall on the left." When master Xie saw Gu Chen's question, he quickly explained, "because these take away riders park their cars at the door of the restaurant, and usually don't go to the back door."

"And when Xiao Zhao brought back the wrong takeout, he came from the left lobby. I remember that very clearly."

"That's strange." Lu Weiwei holds her chest in both hands, and her eyebrows frown slightly. "If Xiao Zhao takes the takeout by mistake and delivers it back in three or four minutes, then he should be out of the corridor between the kitchen and the lobby."

"Normally, the monitor on the cash register in your store can also be photographed, but it's strange that after Xiao Zhao entered the back kitchen, until he left the back kitchen, he was still one minute after Xiao Liao left the back kitchen."

"Doesn't that mean that Xiao Zhao, who took the wrong takeout, didn't leave the kitchen at first?"

"Ah?"

Hearing Lu Weiwei's words, everyone suddenly realized.

At this moment, Xiao Zhao's whereabouts become a new clue.

Gu Chen goes around the back kitchen and suddenly finds that there is a small compartment cold storage in the corner of the back kitchen, which is used to store vegetables and meat in the restaurant.

However, due to the accumulation of goods, it is difficult for ordinary people to get in.Seeing Gu Chen's fascination with the small compartment cold storage, the fat boss rushed forward and explained, "this small cold storage is usually used for storing goods."

"What was the small cold storage like yesterday? Is that what it looks like? " Gu Chen asked.

Without waiting for the fat boss of the restaurant to explain, master Xie stepped forward and said, "the goods just came in yesterday. There are more things piled up inside. People can't get in at all. They can only stand at the door and reach for the goods."

"No way." Gu Chen shook his head and said, "if Xiao Zhao, who took the takeout by mistake, didn't leave the kitchen at all, he must have been poisoning in some position of the kitchen in the past three or four minutes, and can't be seen by people in your restaurant."

"Only in this way can he satisfy the conditions for poisoning, and the possibility of committing a crime can be established."

After listening to Gu Chen's words, the fat boss of the restaurant immediately said, "by the way, the corridor where we just came in is the corridor connecting the lobby and the back kitchen of the restaurant. There is a small toilet on the side."

"The little toilet?" Lu Weiwei turned her head and said curiously, "why didn't we find the door when we just came in?"

"There are some doors. Most outsiders may not find them. Just follow me."

I felt that the police didn't know much about the structure of their restaurant, so the fat boss of the restaurant took them directly to the passage between the kitchen and the dining hall.

Directly reaching out to the wall and pushing, suddenly, a wooden door connected with the wall was directly pushed open.

After that, the fat boss of the restaurant reached out and touched the light.

A simple small toilet, immediately presented in front of the public.

"This is the toilet we use in the back kitchen. The staff of the back kitchen use this when they go to the toilet, even the exhaust system."

Here, the fat boss of the restaurant pressed another switch directly.

Immediately, the exhaust system started.

"No wonder." Seeing this simple toilet, Lu Weiwei also did not make complaints about it: "no wonder I didn't see the door just now. Boss, you have a color in the toilet door and the wall decoration. If it's not for your own people, I'm afraid I can't find it at all."

"I just can't be found by outsiders." The fat boss of the restaurant also told the truth: "because customers who used to eat often ask me where the toilet is? There are also passers-by who sometimes come to borrow the toilet. "

"Come and go, treat me as a public toilet, make the toilet dirty, so I just redecorate this small toilet, just don't want outsiders to borrow the toilet."

"If they want to go to the toilet, I will tell them that there is a public toilet 200 meters to the right."

"So it is?" Hearing that the fat boss of the restaurant said, Lu Weiwei suddenly realized: "so, those take away riders who often come to the back kitchen to pack and pick up their own meals also know the secret?"

"I know." Master Xie nodded silently, but also took the initiative to admit: "because they often come to the kitchen to help, sometimes we are too busy, and they even cook by themselves, so occasionally they ask us to borrow a toilet, we have no problem."

Gu Chen frowned and looked at the toilet structure from left to right.

At this time, a vegetable washing lady just passed by.

Seeing the crowd gathered here, he was also curious and asked, "boss, do you want to go to the toilet?"

"No Said the fat owner of the restaurant.

"Don't you think it's better to give way? I want to go to the bathroom. " The vegetable washing aunt said again.

After hearing this, everyone immediately gave up his position.

However, when the vegetable washing lady was about to enter the toilet, Gu Chen suddenly asked, "excuse me, do you know Xiao Zhao, the delivery girl? It was the rider who helped to deliver the takeaway yesterday because of the car accident. "

"Xiao Zhao? Yes, I know. Didn't he go to the TV station for an interview? " A listen is small Zhao, wash dish aunt direct nod.

"Last night, when he took out the order by mistake, did you see him go to the toilet?" Gu Chen asked again.

Washing vegetables aunt Leng Leng God, but also carefully recalled a few seconds, this just ah way: "yes, he has been to the toilet."

"At that time, I also wanted to go to the toilet, but Xiao Zhao suddenly rushed over from behind, saying that he was in a hurry and asked him to go first."

"I looked at him with takeout in his hand, so he rushed directly into the toilet. I said," are you carrying takeout on the tuba, disgusting? "

"He said it's OK. Anyway, the packing bag is buckled, and it doesn't affect it."

After a pause, the vegetable washing aunt said, "anyway, I'm very disgusted with carrying other people's takeout and running to the toilet to get a large one. I said I might help him with it, but Xiao Zhao refused, so I had to run back to wash the vegetables."

Voice fell, the scene suddenly quiet down.

It seems that this last doubt has been solved.

Gu Chen looks at everyone and seems to be coping with why Xiao Zhao takes Xiao Liao's order in advance, but doesn't run out of the dining hall. Instead, he leaves the restaurant about a minute later than Xiao Liao.The reason is very simple, Xiao Zhao took Xiao Liao's take away and hid in the toilet.

What he did in the toilet seems to be clear only to Xiao Zhao himself.

See people only eye contact, but standing still.

The vegetable washing aunt who wanted to go to the toilet suddenly looked embarrassed and said, "what's that? Are you going to the bathroom or not? If you don't go to the bathroom, please don't surround yourself here, OK? It's embarrassing. "

"Oh, oh."

Reaction of the public, this just make way.

The fat boss of the restaurant also waved and suggested, "why don't you go out and talk? To the front desk? "

"Go." Gu Chen should be a, directly take the lead out of the channel.

At this moment, everyone's heart seems to be like a mirror.

The truth seems to be close at hand.

"Well? Do you think it's Xiao Zhao who poisoned him? " I feel that Gu Chen has sorted out the clues clearly, and the fat boss of the restaurant also tells us what everyone thinks.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "judging from the current situation, it is very likely that Xiao Zhao is a poisoner."

"So next, we will investigate Xiao Zhao according to the actual situation."

Glancing at the shop owner and master Xie, Gu Chen suddenly told him: "so, please take care of your mouth, and the kitchen cleaning aunts, and tell them not to talk about it. It's better not to tell Xiao Zhao about it in advance."

"Don't worry, comrade police. If you don't find out the real poisoners, I can't do it in my restaurant. All the employees in the restaurant will lose their jobs."

"I naturally know which is more important."

This restaurant fat boss voice just fell, the head of he Junchao's phone, but again called in.
