Chapter 397: Poison
This sentence instantly made everyone lose their composure.
How can there be poison in tea?
Besides, isn’t tea refreshing and detoxifying?
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He knew the Red Scorpion so well that he was also familiar with her poisons.
Because it is early winter, it is more suitable to drink black tea and white tea, so Jiang Ning brewed white tea today, and the color of the tea was slightly lighter.
Most people would think that the color becomes lighter because the tea has been brewed for too long.
White tea is light in color, so no one would care.
But Jiang Ning was prepared. He was an expert at drinking tea, and he knew exactly what color the white tea would be when it was brewed.
Therefore, the color of the tea that is currently in the fourth infusion is lighter than that of the fifth infusion on ordinary days.
The quality of tea leaves and water is the same, so there is a problem here.
In his previous life, the Red Scorpion was very good at preparing various poisons. Sometimes he used Chinese herbal medicine, and sometimes he used chemical drugs. He could always combine them well with the opponent's drinks or food, making it almost impossible for the opponent to detect.
But as long as you understand her medicine, you will know that there will still be subtle changes.
Jiang Ning had just sniffed it deliberately, the tea fragrance was still there, but it was mixed with a hint of spicy flavor.
Most people would not care at all, but prefer this kind of tea fragrance.
With this, Jiang Ning could be 100% sure that the tea was indeed poisoned by the red scorpion.
However, the one who poisoned the creature might not necessarily be a red scorpion.
Because the people who approached the teapot just now were Zhong Chushan and the burly man, and some of their movements were very secretive and strange, it was probably that the poison was administered at that time.
To summarize, the poison prepared by the Red Scorpion was made by a master poisoner.
"Mr. Jiang, was it done by the people from Xianglong International?" Jiang Datou was still in shock and he almost drank.
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Lei Long rolled his eyes at Jiang Datou. "This pot of tea was brewed to entertain those people. No outsiders were there during the brewing period. Could it be that one of our own poisoned it?"
The biggest advantage of Jiangning's team is that they are united in their love for each other and have harmonious and close relationships with each other.
It is extremely unlikely that Jiang Ning was poisoned by one of our own people.
Besides, there is no motive!
Jiang Ning waved at Leng Yu and said, "Seal this cup of tea and send it to a testing agency for testing within three hours. Film the whole process for evidence."
"Yes, boss!"
"Sister Yu, let me help you!" Liu Qianhui said, and hurried to the warehouse to find ** materials. Then, together with Leng Yu, they packed up all the tea, teapots and tea utensils, and the two rushed to the testing center in Jiangbei District.
At the same time, Jiang Ning received a call from Zhong Chushan.
"Jiang Ning, are you surprised that I would call you so soon?" Zhong Chushan said in a cold tone on the phone.
"Not surprising!" Jiang Ning smiled slightly: "I figured it out, you will call me soon."
Zhong Chushan scratched his head and thought, can you please stop pretending? You are such a jerk!
"Jiang Ning, you can say whatever you want, but I have to tell you with regret that your life is in my hands now!" Zhong Chushan said, "If you are smart, come to me to discuss cooperation. The antidote is in my hands!"
"You actually poisoned me!" Jiang Ning said deliberately.
"What are you talking about? Don't slander me!" Zhong Chushan was cunning and knew that the first sentence on the phone would not be recorded, so he threatened Jiang Ning at first and then pretended to be innocent. He thought that Jiang Ning would definitely record the phone call if he wanted to collect evidence, so he would not say it a second time.
"Where should I go to meet you?" Jiang Ning asked.
"No. 88 Xiushui Old House!" said Zhong Chushan.
"Okay, wait for me, I'll come to see you later!" Jiang Ning said.
"You must come within three hours." Zhong Chushan said, "I'm not kidding you."
Jiang Ning sighed: "Okay, okay, wait for me!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Chushan looked very proud.
"This guy is not good at being soft, he has to force us to use force! See, he's scared this time!"
"Alas, I thought he was some powerful character, but he is just a young and energetic boy!" The sturdy man next to Zhong Chushan said, "I really don't know how Jiang Ye from Yunlong Chamber of Commerce was defeated by him!"
"We still can't underestimate the enemy. This kid is very evil!" Zhong Chushan said.
Putting aside the question of whether Jiang Ning can tell fortunes, the fact that Jiang Ning can see through so much of the Red Scorpion's secret information shows that he is a man of certain means.
Red Scorpion is still immersed in memories at this moment.
She couldn't understand why Jiang Ning knew all her secret information.
Except her mother, no one knows about the mole on her waist and the scar on her back.
There's no way my mom would tell this to anyone else.
This is very confusing.
"Miss Liu, this time it's all thanks to your potion!" Zhong Chushan said to the Red Scorpion with a smile: "Jiang Ning was like a tiger at first, but now he's as obedient as a cat!"
The Red Scorpion frowned, feeling very depressed.
She came to Xianglong International to work as a food safety consultant, and her job responsibility is to be responsible for the food safety of Tanglongxiang.
But during the time he was working, his mother's tuberculosis suddenly worsened and she was sent to the ICU for emergency treatment. She stayed in the ICU for a whole month and just got out of the critical period.
But the doctor said that her condition could worsen at any time, so he recommended that she stay in the hospital's intensive care unit and be monitored by medical staff around the clock.
At the same time, my mother's illness requires an imported medicine to maintain her condition. That imported medicine is expensive, and a daily dose costs tens of thousands of yuan.
Therefore, Red Scorpion's savings soon ran out, but her mother's illness had to be treated, so she was forced to accept this mission and come to Haicheng with Zhong Chushan and others to be responsible for their food safety and simple medical care.
And, responsible for preparing some poisons.
This last point is crucial.
The previous ones are all basic tasks, and the last one is the main task that Red Scorpion is responsible for this time.
It is precisely because of this reason that the Red Scorpion is offered a price of one million per character.
The Red Scorpion was helpless, her mother was her only one and her spiritual support, she could not live without her mother.
So, she took on the task.
However, she could not do bad things against her conscience. Every poison she prepared had an antidote. Moreover, she had negotiated with Xianglong International in advance that his poison could be used, but it could not kill people or leave them with lifelong disabilities. The antidote must be given to the other party within the effective time.
In other words, I can use my poison to scare the enemy, but I cannot actually cause any harm to the enemy.
Otherwise, she would feel guilty.
The enemy is not necessarily a bad person, and the Red Scorpion did not study for more than ten years to use the knowledge he learned to poison others.
Seeing that Red Scorpion was so determined, Xianglong International also agreed to this.
So, at this moment, the strong man used the Red Scorpion's poison to throw it into Jiang Ning's tea, and the Red Scorpion did not stop him.
Because Jiang Ning still has to be given the antidote next. After all, in business games, shocking the other party is often enough.
At five o'clock in the evening, Jiang Ning arrived at the location designated by Zhong Chushan and others.
