“Since it’s poisoning, there has to be a source, right? What kind of source can infect these people at the same time?”
Tang Zhe had long investigated this. He had investigated many people, but other than the fact that they had all gone to the black market, he did not find any other useful information.
The black market was vast and there were many people. There were countless shady stalls, like an endless pedestrian street.
Most of the people who came to the black market were for business. He could start checking from the shops, but it would take a lot of time if this continued.
Now that they were short of manpower, the higher-ups would probably have already invited Yi Zheng to tea before they could find out.
Shi Man frowned when she was deep in thought. Her fingers knocked on the table either intentionally or unintentionally.
Yi Zheng looked at her thoughtfully and asked in a low voice, “What did you think of?”
Shi Man sighed, her dark eyes filled with melancholy. “I’m thinking about this matter. I’m afraid it’s the same as the previous two incidents. The person behind it should be targeting you.”
“But there’s no need to mobilize so many people! In order to target Master, he actually involved so many innocent people. Is this person a lunatic?” Tang Zhe also knew that this possibility was very high, but he could not help but sigh at the ruthlessness of the person behind him.
In order to deal with Yi Zheng, only a lunatic would let a large number of regulars of the black market be infected with poison!
“He’s indeed crazy.” Shi Man narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Yi Zheng inquisitively. “Did you kill his biological parents? Otherwise, why would he hate you to this extent?”
Yi Zheng sneered and was about to retort when his expression turned cold.
Shi Man’s heart skipped a beat. She couldn’t help but probe, “Why? Have you really killed other people’s biological parents? You haven’t eliminated them yet?”
Yi Zheng frowned tightly and said coldly, “Tang Zhe, is the child of Lin Wei and Yao Jing confirmed to be dead?”
“He’s dead.” Tang Zhe nodded with certainty. “This matter has been going on for more than ten years. Master, don’t tell me you suspect that the little brat grew up to take revenge? But he’s already dead! After that, I even carefully verified that it’s definitely their son!”
Yi Zheng’s tense body slowly relaxed again. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Yes, he’s already dead. Why would I have such a strange thought?”
Shi Man lowered her eyes and said calmly, “Since it’s not him, who else would hate you so much and want to start dealing with you after so many years?”
Tang Zhe really couldn’t think of anyone else he knew who would be crazy to this extent. However, there was another possibility. “Master, Miss Shi, do you think this person is doing it not out of hatred but because he wants to take down the Yi family and replace them?”
Shi Man nodded slightly and said, “It’s not impossible.”
Now, they had too little information in their hands, and they knew nothing about this person. The Yi family had stood for many years and had enemies everywhere. There were countless people who were jealous. They could not investigate them one by one.
Before they could figure it out, the Old Masters of the Yi family and Yi Ming actually took the initiative to look for them.
The secretary outside could not stop these Buddhas and could only let them in.
Yi Zheng stood up to welcome him and gave Tang Zhe a look, asking him to inform Yi Long to come over.
No matter how powerful Yi Zheng was now, he could not act unreasonably in front of the elders of the family. The best was that Yi Long was present.
Shi Man was not in the mood to deal with the Old Masters of the Yi family at all. She threw Yi Zheng a look that said, “1’11 leave first.” Shi Man went out with Tang Zhe and left this big mess to Yi Zheng alone.
Unexpectedly, just as she walked out, she was stopped by a delicate figure. Behind that person was a timid acquaintance.
Tang Zhe looked like he was a little worried and wanted to leave with Shi Man.
However, the girl refused to let Shi Man off easily. She stood in front of Shi Man and refused to give in.
Tang Zhe returned a guilty look to Shi Man. Before he could speak, the girl suddenly said coldly in front of the two of them, “Tang Zhe, go away.”
Tang Zhe’s footsteps did not move at all. He could still tell which was more important in his master’s heart.
Seeing that he didn’t listen to her, the girl pointed at his nose angrily and said, “If you don’t move away, I’ll let my father and Brother Yi Zheng punish you!”
Tang Zhe sighed helplessly, but his figure still did not move.
Only then did Shi Man speak unhurriedly. “Tang Zhe, go busy yourself. Don’t delay important matters.”
“Who are you calling unimportant?” The girl was so angry that she laughed. Just as she was about to mock her, she saw Tang Zhe really obediently move aside. Before he left, he did not forget to apologize to Shi Man.
Her eyes widened in disbelief. “What did you drug my fiance’s assistant with? Why does he listen to you like this?”
“Fiance?” Shi Man caught the main point. Her dark eyes flashed with a hint of
anger..
