Now everyone knows that something happened to Mrs. Gu's restaurant. In such a short period of time, the news spread so quickly.

Shopkeeper Wang is still a person who can take care of things, and he obviously didn't expect that things would develop so fast. Now that he was listening to the gossip of so many people outside, he felt a drumbeat in his heart.

When he found Gu Yiyi, he felt unsure.

"Madam, the official mission is coming soon, but I feel that things are not as simple as we thought.

You see, I have just followed your instructions and dismissed all the guests and even closed the door, but the Zhou family members still got the news, and now so many people know that Mr. Zhou died in our restaurant.

There must be someone behind the scenes. If they collude with the officials, what will our restaurant do? Madam, what can you do now? "

Shopkeeper Wang could see things that Gu Yiyi didn't know.

Even if she stood up just now and tried to stabilize the scene, there was nothing she could do. It is conceivable that there must be someone in this group of people who deliberately made the matter bigger. They were not afraid of anyone at all, just afraid that others would not know about it.

So now she doesn't have a good solution.

Gu Yiyi looked at Shopkeeper Wang and calmed him down: "Don't worry, now that the news has been disseminated, we have no other way. Let's see what the officials will say when they arrive.

It can’t be that we didn’t poison him, so he has to frame it for us, right? "

If that's the case, Gu Yiyi believes that those who are clean will always find flaws.

She has never been afraid of anything.

So she simply adopted the mentality of a bystander and dealt with it calmly.

Perhaps the matter was too big. Shopkeeper Jin from Fanggui Tower also came after hearing the news. The front entrance of the restaurant was blocked and he could only go in through the back door.

Inside were the Zhou family members who were crying and losing control of their emotions, as well as several other officials who were dining with Zhou Hong.

They were all uneasy and anxious, but in this situation, it was difficult for anyone to do anything, they were just waiting for the official to leave.

To the surprise of Shopkeeper Jin, Gu Yiyi stood outside the box with an indifferent expression. Except for her family members, she would not let anyone get close to Zhou Hong's body.

Shopkeeper Jin hurriedly walked to Gu Yiyi, pulled her sleeves and said, "Madam, what should we do?!"

Gu Yiyi gave him a comforting look: "Don't panic, wait for the official."

She was like a needle that stabilized the sea at the moment. The waiters in the restaurant were all worried. Now that they saw her boss being so calm, they also firmly believed that his boss could not poison Zhou Hong to death.

With Gu Yiyi's words, shopkeeper Jin suddenly spoke up and looked at the boys as if he had been given a shot of blood.

"Since the accident happened in our restaurant, when the official arrives, all of us are obliged to cooperate with the official for inspection. Also, our boss is not an unscrupulous person who randomly harms people, so we can't be modest and stand up. Come on!"

When the waiters heard Shopkeeper Jin's encouraging words, they immediately felt that even if the sky fell, their boss would be there to support them, and they no longer felt guilty or afraid.

However, the official mission arrived later than expected, and the delay had already turned the whole street into a place for people watching.

If Gu Yiyi hadn't asked all the waiters in the restaurant to stand outside to maintain order, the entire restaurant would have been overturned.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the officials finally arrived.

As soon as they entered the house, the Zhou family members knelt down in front of them one after another and cried out for injustice.

"Sir, sir! Please give our master justice!!"

"My master was dining in this restaurant, and he died before finishing the meal. My master is an important minister in the court! Someone must be deliberately trying to harm him! Save our Zhou family, and bring justice to our master!! "

As those people continued to cry out their grievances, the cries were deafening, and the people outside began to become restless.

"I heard that Mr. Zhou is very honest. Who wants to poison him?!"

"I think Mrs. Gu must have something to do with it. Since it happened in her restaurant, everyone on the left and right is responsible."

"Being poisoned to death is nothing more than eating something. It is said that Mrs. Gu personally took the spoon today. Who knows what is in it."

This matter suddenly got out of hand.

Gu Yiyi ignored the looks of those people and walked straight to the official official, bowed and greeted him politely.

"Sir, Mr. Zhou's body is upstairs. Since the accident, only Mr. Zhou's wife and I have touched him, and no one else has come close. You can go upstairs and have a look."

When the leading official saw what Gu Yiyi said, he felt that she was here to cause trouble.

So his attitude was quite gentle. He nodded and then greeted the people behind him to go in with him. However, all irrelevant people were kept outside.

However, when they went upstairs, Master Zhang suddenly stood up in the crowd and spoke with a pale face.

"There's no need to check! I poisoned Mr. Zhou to death. I put the poison of Yushuang into his wine glass, and he died because of it."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Gu Yiyi, who was going upstairs, also looked over in surprise, with a puzzled face! !

Why did this adult suddenly admit that it was him?

Recalling when Zhou Hong's incident happened, Mr. Zhang, like everyone else, was shocked and puzzled, and even came to inquire with Gu Yiyi.

Thinking of what he said, Gu Yiyi suddenly realized something!

He asked himself to do something before. Could it be that... he already knew Zhou Hong's ending?

Gu Yiyi couldn't figure it out for a moment. At this moment, Master Guan Cha stopped going upstairs and walked to Master Zhang instead, looking up and down.

Mr. Zhang continued to emphasize: "Zhou Hong and I have had a personal grudge for a long time. Today, he is rising steadily in the officialdom, which makes me jealous and unbearable, so I suddenly missed him.

Now he feels regretful, but his death had nothing to do with anyone present, and it had nothing to do with the restaurant. "

While he was talking, he did not forget to clear the air for Gu Yiyi's restaurant.

Gu Yiyi frowned slightly, already guessing half of what he was thinking.

But she still couldn't believe it.

However, just after he surrendered, the Zhou family completely lost control of their emotions. Zhou Hong's wife rushed over without hesitation, grabbed his clothes tightly and started crying.

"You're a damned person! My master treats you well, why... why would you kill him! Are you still a human being?"

"You should be sent to the eighteenth level of hell to make amends and redeem your life for my master!"

"You compensate my master!!"

Mrs. Zhou was so excited that she fainted on the spot after saying only a few words.

Others were shocked and quickly stepped forward to support her.

Mr. Zhang lowered his eyes, with a look of pain on his face, which was far different from his usual smiling face.

Gu Yiyi's heart skipped a beat, and at a certain moment she suddenly understood something.

Especially when she looked into Master Zhang's eyes, she suddenly became convinced.

At this moment, she stopped what she wanted to say and chose to remain silent.
