"You drank my medicinal wine?" Yan Ji's first reaction was, "How can you blame my medicinal wine for everything?!"
Only Jiang Stops's expression changed slightly, while Yang Mei and Qi Sihao were confused. They didn't even know what the medicinal wine was.
Fang Zhenghong let out a short laugh, and there seemed to be a ruthless look in his eyes. "Yan Xun, Director Lu was originally on your side, and I was discovered following you. I can't explain myself even if I jump into the Yellow River. Besides, everyone here is your people. Naturally, you can deny it as much as you want. No matter what you say, these people will only believe you and not me. In this case, do you still need to pretend to be confused with me? Isn't your level too low? "
"…" At this moment, Yan Ji really felt the injustice of an innocent citizen being interrogated by the Criminal Investigation Detachment, "But I really don't know. When did you drink my medicinal wine?!"
Fang Zhenghong said angrily, "Didn't you send it to my house?!"
Yan Ji, "Am I cheap? Why would I send you something?!"
These two were born to be cats and dogs. They quarreled whenever they saw each other. Fortunately, Jiang Stops coughed and asked, "What the hell is going on? Captain Fang, take your time to explain."
Fang Zhenghong always had a strange and reluctant trust in Jiang Stops. Hearing this, he took a deep breath, "It was a year and a half ago when I was injured. Various departments in the Municipal Bureau sent condolences to my house. At that time, I didn't like this kid surnamed Yan that much — that much —"
He wasn't that picky, and the two still maintained a harmonious and calm working relationship.
"Ah, yes." Yan Ji finally remembered, "At that time, Director Lu ordered everyone to express their condolences as team building for that quarter. I was afraid that the gifts I casually chose were too expensive, and it wouldn't look good on the other departments, so I casually asked Ma Xiang to prepare some cheap nutritional products … "
"They sent two boxes of nutritional products and two small bottles of medicinal wine to my house," Fang Zhenghong said angrily, "There was also a handwritten condolence card from Yan Ji on the medicinal wine."
Yan Ji's hair stood on end. "I wrote something for you? Is there something wrong with your brain, Old Fang? Ever since I graduated from the police academy, I've never written anything other than my own name. Even Jiang Stops have never received a love letter from me! "
Jiang Stops: "…"
Fang Zhenghong: "…"
Jiang Stops rubbed his temples. "And then?"
"I'm not good at traditional Chinese medicine, but after I got injured, my muscles and bones were not as good as before. Besides, I was influenced by the people around me, so I know that medicinal wine is very useful for promoting blood circulation and rheumatism." Fang Zhenghong paused and reluctantly admitted, "Although Yan Ji is frivolous, he always gives good things to people. So when I saw that it was from him, I …"
"You drank it all," Jiang Stops confirmed.
Fang Zhenghong nodded bitterly.
Jiang Stops and Yan Ji looked at each other. The latter's face was full of "WTF".
"And then you were immediately poisoned?" Jiang Stops asked again.
"I drank a small cup every day. At first, I didn't feel anything wrong, but after a while, my heart started to feel uncomfortable, and I often had premature heartbeats. I thought it was because I was tired, so I gradually reduced my working hours and stopped doing everything by myself. I thought I would recover after a while, but my condition got worse and worse. I went to the hospital and couldn't find anything. "
Fang Zhenghong took a deep breath and shook his head. "I dragged it out for a few months until my wife's old acquaintance who studied traditional Chinese medicine came to visit. She said that I might have ingested poison from Chinese medicine. I immediately thought of the two bottles of medicinal wine. At that time, there was only a little left of the second bottle. My acquaintance took it for testing and found traces of aconitine, not enough to kill. "
Aconitine!
Yan Ji and Jiang Stops stood up straight at the same time.
"So you suspect that I deliberately poisoned you?" Yan Ji asked in disbelief. "Then why didn't you say anything?"
Fang Zhenghong was angry and annoyed. "I did! I immediately took the evidence to Director Lu and asked for a thorough investigation. But do you know how Director Lu reacted?! "
A year ago, Jianning Municipal Bureau —
"He has been very uncooperative with my work. He has a big prejudice against me! That's his motive! " In the director's office, Fang Zhenghong slammed the big desk loudly. His face was red with anger. "Yan Ji is such a frivolous and high-profile rich kid. It makes sense that he would hold a grudge against me because he was scolded by me several times. Then, he would deliberately seek revenge. This makes sense! Otherwise, how can you explain the obvious traces of aconitine on the test report?! "
Director Lu sat behind the desk, his round face expressionless. He waited until Fang Zhenghong finished shouting and venting before slowly saying, "You have no evidence, Old Fang."
"How is this not evidence? This is clearly — "
"If Aconitine Root and Aconitine Root are not strictly processed, it is common for traces of aconitine to remain. If a healthy person were to be poisoned with this amount of alkaloid toxin, they would not have such a big disease reaction. Therefore, it is very difficult to prove that Yan Ji deliberately poisoned you."
Fang Zhenghong was furious. "You are clearly protecting him. You are clearly …"
"I am not." Director Lu said quietly, "I am just stating the facts. The truth is that you have no way of proving that this bottle of medicinal wine was given to you by Yan Ji and not made by you."
"…" Fang Zhenghong stared at Director Lu in disbelief. It was as if he had met him for the first time.
"Old Fang." Director Lu seemed to realize that he had spoken too harshly, so he switched to a gentler tone. "Even though everyone knows that you have a conflict with Yan Xuan, I know you. I know that you wouldn't go so far as to frame him on purpose. I just want to remind you that you have to consider two possibilities. The first is that you do have a deep prejudice against him, so much so that you are emotionally biased towards him to harm you. The second is … "
