Just as he was about to go meet Zhao Shulan, Xu Haoqing spoke again, "Oh right, how did you two know Shulan?"
"The doctor in charge when we went to the hospital with Tao Zi was Zhao Shulan. She had a fiery temper. Not only did she not buy our money, she even quarreled with us and left a deep impression on us." I explained.
"Oh, oh, alright then. You guys go back to your work."
We found Zhao Shulan, who was watching the video, and called her to the side.
"What can I do for you?" Zhao Shulan doesn't seem to know about our relationship with Xu Haoqing.
After introducing myself, I said, "Dr. Zhao, actually, we wanted to ask you something."
"What is it?" That friend of yours definitely can't drive a car, and he can't take his driver's license either. He's so lecherous … " She thought we were looking for her because of Taozi.
"No, no. I want to ask you about Zhao Yao."
Hearing me mention her son, Zhao Shulan immediately became alert. With a straight face, she said, "Zhao Yao would never do something like that. I can guarantee it."
"Don't get me wrong, I just want to ask him how he came up with that business method. This time, we were drinking there. That Officer Xu rushed in with his men and said that there was a problem with the wine in the bar, and because we had a bit of a relationship with Captain Xu and were at the scene, we went back to the police station together to help out with the investigation. It's not what you think. "
It was only after I chatted for a bit that Zhao Shulan's attitude finally eased up. Hearing me praise her son, a smile broke out on her face.
"Oh, oh, so it's like that. Sorry about the misunderstanding. His heart is kind and filial, he started a bar by himself. I gave him some financial support, and he even built a bar. The bar that he opened at the beginning didn't have much business and had no special features. "
"He likes to study and ponder. After closing the bar for a few days, he got inspiration from the haunted house in Entertainment City and decided to open a special shop. This is how we get to this thrilling bar, I've been there a few times, and it feels really attractive. He said, 'The business here right now is not bad, and many customers are willing to go there …'"
That was true, the Terror Bar was unique and indeed fascinating.
Zhao Yao was truly intelligent. He was able to grasp people's curiosity and open such a unique and attractive bar. However, he didn't know whether this clever Zhao Yao was a follower of the "C" organization or not.
After flattering Zhao Shulan and saying that Zhao Yao was smart, she gradually let her guard down and began to talk about Zhao Yao.
They chatted for a while. From her words, it was clear that Zhao Yao had not committed any crime.
"Tell me, how did my unlucky son manage to get involved in this. Ai, you all have to believe me, he's really innocent … "Someone must have harmed him, this is clearly a trap. I know, someone must have seen that my son's business was good and messed with his reputation while drinking wine, yes yes yes yes, that must have been the case. So the one who harmed him should be his comrade, I must inform Haoqing …" Zhao Shulan was somewhat excited, as though she had discovered a new continent.
Actually, her analysis was not without reason. However, it did not remove Zhao Yao's suspicion.
"Doctor Zhao, why are you so sure that Zhao Yao would not do such a thing?" Li Fengyun asked.
Zhao Shulan: "Of course I know my own son. Anyway, he won't do anything that violates the law. You can rest assured. Deep down, he would never do anything that would break the law! "
Listening to Zhao Shulan's words, I suddenly felt as though I had grabbed onto something, but after thinking about it for a moment, I was still unable to grasp onto anything …
"No, Doctor Zhao, how can you be so sure that Zhao Yao would not do something like that?"
Zhao Shulan didn't say what was wrong. She only emphasized that Zhao Yao wouldn't do anything illegal.
If they continued to chat, it would become a chatterbox. There was no meaning in continuing to chat.
Zhao Shoulan had no interest in continuing to chat with us, so she went to find Xu Haoqing to explain her thoughts.
"Boss, do you feel that Zhao Shulan's words are rather strange?" I asked.
"That's right, she has no basis at all. Yet, she has always said that Zhao Yao would not do that sort of thing. Judging from her words, not only would Zhao Yao not do that sort of thing, he would also not violate any law or discipline.
After exchanging a few words with Li Fengyun, they all agreed that something was wrong with Zhao Shulan.
After a while, Xu Haoqing came over.
"Where's Zhao Shulan?" I asked.
"We are currently in the process of being released on bail. We don't have the facts of Zhao Yao's crime, and his condition also meets the conditions of being released on bail. We have no choice but to release him." Xu Haoqing said with a bit of regret.
Listening to his words, Li Fengyun was blaming us for acting too early and alerting the snake without any evidence.
Even if Zhao Yao was really a member of the "yes" organization, he probably wouldn't be able to contact the organization for a short period of time.
His bar was temporarily closed. Xu Haoqing had already sent people to keep an eye on Zhao Shulan and her son, but they were unlikely to make any progress.
Xu Haoqing: "Feng Yun, don't blame us. After all, Zhao Yao has the word 'yes' on his body. He might be a dangerous person. By the way, when I asked him, he said there were two people in the bar who had access to the wine and who might have done that. "
"Who?"
Xu Haoqing took out the folder and handed us some information.
These were the information on those two.
One was called Tang Rongzheng, who was floating around the door of the bar.
According to Zhao Yao, Tang Rong was dissatisfied with him, thinking that it was very embarrassing for him to be assigned to the door by Zhao Yao, and also that the salary he paid was not high. In addition to this, Zhao said Tang used to work in a packaging factory and knew how to wrap alcohol, which could be opened and stored in a hallucinogen before being sealed.
The other was called Ding Zhuang, and Ding Zhuang also impressed me. As I was leaving the Terror Bar, I met Zhao Yao, and when I saw Vin behind his neck, I ran in after him, unable to find him. When I wanted to look for him over the screen, the bawd called a couple of waitresses over.
Ding Zhuang was a rather high-profile person. Once, Zhao Yao had drunk too much alcohol and quarrelled with him for a while. He threatened to make Zhao Yao's bar unable to continue working. However, after Zhao Yao apologized and the two made peace, he stayed on to work.
From the looks of it, Tang Rong and Ding Zhuang could have indeed drugged the wine.
Tang Rong knew how to seal and wrap the wine. Ding Zhuang said that if the bar couldn't continue to work, then it would be acceptable for the bar to mess around in the wine.
It was also possible that Tang Rong and Ding Zhuang were working together.
According to the police, not all the alcohol had been drugged. Those on the bar counter had basically been moved, but most of the people in the storeroom were fine.
In other words, the other party didn't have enough time to mess with all the alcohol, and only chose a portion of the wine.
In that case, this person naturally didn't have the luxury of time to make a move. And if it was Zhao Yao who did it, as he was the owner of the bar, he naturally had the luxury of time to set all the alcohol on the line into motion.
Unless he didn't make it in time.
Xu Haoqing's group visited Zhao Yao's house, but didn't find any equipment or ingredients that could repack the opened wine jar.
In that case, the important thing to do was to focus on Tang Rong and Ding Zhuang.
Xu Haoqing's men had already rushed out to search during the night. If it was one of the two of them, or if it was done jointly by them, then it would be purely for revenge against Zhao Yao.
But if it was Zhao Yao who did it, then the nature of the matter would be different because his identity was too suspicious.
The police could not find any clues about Xiao Qian at all.
Even Xu Haoqing asked if I was mistaken or hallucinating.
"Of course not. I saw Xiao Qian before I drank, and I wasn't influenced by Xiluo. How could I have hallucinated?" I argued.
I did see Xiaoqian.
"Alright, let's leave it at this for now. You guys can go back. I'll continue investigating Zhao Yao and also follow up on Ding Zhuang and Tang Rongzheng." Xu Haoqing said.
It's getting late, we should go back, anyway there's nothing we can do here.
When I got home, I chatted with Li Fengyun for a while, but my head was still spinning.
"..."
I woke up from a dream and sat up abruptly, sweating profusely.
It was that nightmare again.
I saw a great deal of blood, and bits of flesh, and the approaching train, which was closing in on me.
I stood where I was, unable to move, the blood splattering on my face, the bits of flesh slapping against my body.
The train was gone.
I woke up.
Li Fengyun was also woken up by me, and asked if I was alright.
"There's no situation. I had a nightmare. Sigh, I've been having nightmares recently. I have to find time to do some psychological counseling. Perhaps the pressure is too great."
"Alright, I'll go with you tomorrow. Your health is more important."
Lying in bed, I could not sleep, my mind was filled with that terrible dream of mine, alone, a train, with blood and meat all over the floor, and I did not know what I was doing there, or why I did not avoid the oncoming train, or even why I felt that I was deliberately not going away.
If I don't walk away, I'll get hit by a car. Is that blood and flesh, mine?
Why did I feel that the dream was so real, as if I had experienced it myself?
"..."
Early in the morning, Li Fengyun and I were not in a good mental state. I had a bad night's sleep, but he was suffering from the side effects of the hallucinogenic drugs he had taken every day.
Xu Haoqing didn't have any leads at the moment, so there was no problem with Ding Zhuang and Tang Rongzheng's resumes.
Ding Zhuang was a person with a bad temper and poor alcohol quality. He had often caused trouble when drinking wine in the past. However, he had never encountered any major problems. He had only fought a few times.
Xu Haoqing had already shifted the focus to Ding Zhuang and Tang Rong, but I felt that even if the drug in the wine was done by them, Zhao Yao, Zhao Shulan and her son still might have other problems.
Because this mother and son feels so strange to me.
Although there was no solid evidence, the words and actions of the mother and son had to be questioned.
In addition, I also trust Li Fengyun's intuition, his thoughts are more meticulous than mine. Recently, my condition has been recovering, but I can still clearly feel the difference between me and Li Fengyun and Xu Haoqing.
"Come, let's go to the hospital to have a look. Ol 'Three, you can't act like this. You have to restore your previous appearance as soon as possible so that you can better meet the challenges ahead." Li Fengyun said.
I nodded and followed him by taxi to the People's Hospital.
