Chapter 2742: Someone Poisoned

Zhao Xu looked embarrassed and said to Pine: "Excuse me!" After that, he turned and left the scene.

After Zhao Xu left, Paine ordered the men around him: "Continue patrolling!"

After returning to the castle where he lived, Zhao Xu told Chen Xiaodao about the incident.

After hearing this, Chen Xiaodao frowned and said: "The murderer is very alert! When he saw that he had not killed you, he immediately evacuated the scene. But why did Pain bring people to patrol at that time?"

"The Garcia family patrols have a certain time period, and that time is the patrol time of the team of bodyguards."

"That's not right!" Chen Xiaodao shook his head and said, "The man left, and Paine and others happened to come over. With Paine's skill, there is no way he could not have seen the murderer."

Zhao Xu's expression changed drastically and he said, "Are you saying that Pain is lying?"

Chen Xiaodao nodded.

Zhao Xu carefully recalled the cause and effect of what had just happened, and the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong.

He whispered something in Chen Xiaodao's ear.

Chen Xiaodao nodded and said to Zhao Xu: "Master, that's it!"

Hatoyama Meihui didn't know what Zhao Xu and Chen Xiaodao were going to do. Seeing the two of them muttering, she asked, "What are you talking about?"

Zhao Xu said: "We are talking about the case!"

At this time, there was a "dong dong dong!" knocking sound at the door.

Zhao Xu walked to the door of the room, opened it, and saw Butler Adrew standing outside the door.

"Master Butler!" Zhao Xu greeted Adlu.

Adlu had a cold look on his face, ignored Zhao Xu, and said to Hatoyama Meihui in the room: "Miss Meihui, dinner is ready!"

"Thank you, Mr. Butler!"

Hatoyama Meihui said to Zhao Xu and Chen Xiaodao: "Let's go! Let's go eat."

The three of them followed the butler Adreu to the restaurant.

In the restaurant, there were only three people, Hatoyama Meihui, Zhao Xu and Chen Xiaodao.

The dishes on the table are very rich, including steak, red wine, pizza, sandwiches, bluefin tuna naked, lobster and so on.

Adlu said: "Please use it slowly!" Then he turned and left.

After the housekeeper Adlu left, Hatoyama Meihui smiled and said to Zhao Xu: "Did you see that the housekeeper is angry? He must be resentful of you for checking on him today!"

Zhao Xu shrugged, with an indifferent expression.

Since the butler Adreu is suspected, of course they have to investigate him.

When Zhao Xu eats, he is used to testing his meals with the silver needle he carries with him.

This is a habit he has kept since he almost got hit by "San Gong San!"

Whenever he eats out, he has to test the food with a silver needle beforehand.

Mihui Hatoyama said: "This is the Garcia family. Could they still harm us?"

She cut a small piece of steak and was about to eat it when Chen Xiaodao stopped her.

Said: "Miss Meihui, it's better to be careful!"

After Zhao Xu tried it with a silver needle, he actually had problems with the steak and soup.

Seeing the silver needle change color, the expressions of the three of them changed.

Chen Xiaodao said: "Someone wants to harm us?"

Mihui Hatoyama said angrily: "Huh! We helped the Garcia family investigate the case, but we didn't expect that they wanted to harm us. I'll go find them to argue!"

Zhao Xu said to Chen Xiaodao: "The patriarch must know about this matter. Let's go! Let's go together."

As soon as the three of them walked out of the restaurant, they saw the butler Adreu walk in.

Adlu saw that Zhao Xu and the others did not touch anything on the table, with a look of surprise in his eyes, and asked: "Miss Meihui, are you tasteless? Why don't you eat?"

Hatoyama Mihui snorted softly and asked the butler Adlu: "Humph! Mr. Butler, is this how your Garcia family entertains guests?"

"What's wrong?" Butler Adreu asked in confusion.

Zhao Xu's face darkened, he stared at the housekeeper Adlu and said, "The food is poisonous!"

The butler Adlu was startled and exclaimed: "How is this possible?"

Zhao Xu took the butler Adlu back to the dining table and tried the soup and steak again with a new silver needle.

When the housekeeper Adlu saw that the silver needle had turned black, his face changed drastically. He comforted Hatoyama Meihui and said: "Miss Meihui, I will arrange a new table of meals for you. Don't worry, I will go to inspect the kitchen immediately.

What’s going on?”

Zhao Xu and Chen Xiaodao said nothing. In their hearts, they believed that it was the housekeeper Adlu who did it.

Hatoyama Meihui still had the appetite to eat, and said coldly: "No need! I have no appetite to eat anymore. I hope the housekeeper can give us an explanation. Otherwise, we will report the matter to the patriarch immediately."

After saying that, he took Zhao Xu and Chen Xiaodao back to the room.

In the room, Mihui Hatoyama complained: "The Garcia family has gone too far! We helped them investigate the case, but they actually want to harm us."

This was the first time that Zhao Xu saw Hatoyama Meihui getting so angry, so he comforted him and said, "Miss Meihui, don't say that. I believe the patriarch doesn't know about this!"

"The housekeeper Adru must have a grudge and deliberately take revenge on us." Mihui Hatoyama said.

Zhao Xu thought so in his heart.

While the three of them were talking, several "Bang!" gunshots suddenly came from the manor.

Zhao Xu and the others were shocked.

Chen Xiaodao rushed out with a single stride.

Zhao Xu was worried that leaving Hatoyama Meihui alone in the room would be dangerous, so he said to Hatoyama Meihui: "Let's go, Miss Meihui! Let's go out and have a look."

Hatoyama Mihui followed Zhao Xu out of the room.

When they arrived at the scene of the accident, they saw a muscular man dressed like a chef lying on the ground.

There were several obvious bullet holes in his body, and Gu Gu's blood was flowing out from the bullet holes.

Before Zhao Xu could ask, someone said: "Master Allen is here!"

The crowd parted, and Allen walked over with close bodyguards.

He glanced at the body of the chef on the ground, looked at the butler Adreu and the bodyguard leader Pine and asked, "What is going on?"

Because among all the people present, two people have the highest titles.

The housekeeper Adlu explained: "Master Allen, when Miss Meihui, Mr. Li Jiu and Detective Chen were having dinner tonight, they found poison in the food. I went to the kitchen to interrogate the dinner cook in person. This Jeffrey was not there at the time.

In the kitchen, he may have overheard my interrogation of other chefs. He ran out in a panic and was shot dead by Captain Pine."

Pine explained: "I was patrolling with my bodyguards when I saw Jeffrey running out. I told him to stop, but he didn't listen! He ran faster and faster, so I ordered someone to shoot him."

When Allen heard this, his expression changed drastically.

See, Hatoyama Meihui, Zhao Xu and Chen Xiaodao are safe and sound!

He asked the three of them with concern: "Miss Meihui, are you okay?"

"It's okay!" Hatoyama Mihui shook her head.
