Gu Zhi knew that Gong Xin didn’t mean to accuse her. She turned to reassure her, “The products in our store are absolutely safe. I can guarantee that. If you’re afraid to be involved, you should leave. This matter doesn’t concern you.”

Upon hearing Gu Zhi’s assurance, Gong Xin felt a sense of relief. She shook her head, “I won’t leave. I promised to stand by you. If you say there’s no problem, I believe you. Don’t try to send me away. If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t be your friend. What kind of person do you think I am, making friends with just anyone?”

Gu Zhi laughed, “Alright, if you insist on staying, then don’t be afraid. After all, you’re standing with me. Don’t let your fear undermine my confidence.”

Gong Xin playfully pushed Gu Zhi, this infuriating woman, who could still manage to laugh at a time like this.

“What do you mean by laughing? Officer, this woman is heartless. Her store’s food almost took a life, and she can still laugh. She doesn’t value human life at all. She’s a despicable capitalist!” freёweɓnovel.com

The crowd tried to surge forward, but they were held back by the police captain’s subordinates. The police officer’s authority was unquestionable, and he shouted, “Everyone, stop! This is a public place. No disturbances are allowed. We, the police, are here and will ensure justice is served!”

The crowd, naturally, didn’t dare to cause a scene at the police station’s entrance. They halted their actions, their eyes filled with anger as they glared at Gu Zhi and Gong Xin, who stood behind her. They didn’t know who Gong Xin was, but since she arrived with the store manager, they assumed she was part of the store’s staff, and they wouldn’t show her any kindness.

Among them, aside from the parents of the victim, the rest were relatives. They had come to cause a scene, hoping to rally support for the victim and secure more compensation.

Originally, they had been causing a commotion at the hospital, but somehow the police were alerted. With no other choice, they called the police. When the police captain arrived at the hospital, he insisted they couldn’t disrupt the hospital’s operations. After all, the hospital was a place for saving lives, and any delay could have serious consequences.

“Captain He, since our store opened, we’ve only advertised one dish in the city, braised pork. As for breakfast, we didn’t specifically advertise it in the city. Even when we were featured in the newspaper, the main focus was on the braised pork.

“Customers from the city or other places come to our store specifically for the braised pork. This is the first time someone has claimed to come specifically for breakfast.

“Moreover, there were other customers who had breakfast at our store this morning, but only this victim had a problem. I think there’s more to this incident than meets the eye.

“I hope you can thoroughly investigate this matter. I can provide any information you need and cooperate with your investigation. But to have our store take the blame for this incident without reason, that’s absolutely impossible!”

Captain He was no fool. On the contrary, he was a very capable man. He could see that there was something suspicious about this incident. He had no reason to refuse Gu Zhi’s request. He nodded, “Indeed, let’s all go inside and make a record of this.”
