Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin.

Chapter 84 I really didn’t kill anyone

"Director Tang, if you report this, how long will it take for someone to be sent over?"

Zhang Jingtian asked curiously.

After all, the leaders of District 9 had just left. If they had left a little later, this matter would have been much simpler.

"I don't know about that." Tang Youai's expression was not so optimistic.

As an eyewitness, he is very clear about the harm of this incident.

However, for leaders, there is actually only one criterion for them to judge whether something is urgent.

That is whether many people died.

Moreover, abnormal events are now breaking out in many places around the world, and Fengdu is no exception.

Tang Youai didn't know that this matter would attract attention.

But he didn't want Zhang Jingtian to worry too much, so he patted him on the shoulder: "It won't be long, just don't worry."

Zhang Jingtian hummed, "But the clue is broken. Let's continue to check the sashimi supplier!"

"Okay." Tang Youai's idea was also very simple. They would report it while continuing to track it themselves.

After he reported the news to his superiors, Tang Youai thought of the young men in his team.

I don't know how they are progressing.

So Tang Youai picked up his phone and sent a message to one of them:
"How's the investigation going? Is there something wrong with the cake shop owner?"

The other party called Tang Youai immediately, and he woke up immediately.

"no problem."

"The boss seems to have made a mistake in the order. The one with meat was originally ordered by someone else as a prank."

Tang Youai's expression was clearly one of disbelief. A prank?
He knew very well that the piece of meat in the cake was human flesh. Who would use human flesh to play a prank?

They actually believed it so easily, which made Tang Youai even more confused.

He even began to suspect that several of his subordinates might have been infected.

He frowned, but in order not to alert the enemy, he whispered, "Since there is no problem, please return to the bureau as soon as possible. I have something to discuss."

There are a lot of good people in the Public Security Bureau. If they really get into trouble, they will be dead if they come back.

"Director Tang, can you wait a moment? I'm so hungry now."

From the other end of the phone came the sounds of several people shouting that they were hungry, as if they hadn't eaten for months.

After hearing this, Tang Youai was completely sure that his subordinates had also been implicated.

Although their highest level is only silver card makers, some of their star levels are even lower than Zhang Jingtian.

But they have dealt with many unusual incidents and are very experienced, but they still fell into the trap.

If it were an ordinary person, wouldn’t they have no resistance at all?
When Zhang Jingtian saw Director Tang’s worried expression, he knew that this matter was not that simple.

I'm afraid it's over.

He sighed and whispered:
"Director Tang, is there something wrong over there?"

He knew that if nothing happened, Tang Youai would not keep sighing.

"Most likely, let's go to the cake shop first."

Zhang Jingtian thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I go to the sashimi shop first? Director Tang, I know it's dangerous for me to go alone, but you've also seen that these shouldn't be the real source."

They are ordinary people who have been polluted and do not have strong fighting power. The more troublesome thing is that they will lure you, eat their flesh, and then become like them.

But Director Tang, you've also seen that neither I nor my Heroic Spirit have been affected at all."

Tang Youai recalled it and it seemed to be true. Zhang Jingtian had always had a lot of strange things going on, so this one didn't seem strange to Tang Youai. He hummed, "If that's the case, then you must be careful. If something unexpected happens, run away immediately."

Zhang Jingtian nodded. He was not the kind of person who would risk his life.

Walking on the road, Zhang Jingtian touched his chin with a puzzled expression on his face.

Why is it all related to eating?

Could it be that in the beginning, someone accidentally ate the Scourge's dirty stuff, which led to all this happening now?

So the source...

Zhang Jingtian suddenly remembered the uproarious incident of killing stray cats and dogs in the park.

Could it be that that person was the first one to eat something dirty?

Because after eating that thing, you seem to be extremely hungry and eat like crazy. Then it develops to the point of eating your own flesh.

Finally, they find ways to feed their own flesh to others to eat in order to spread the disease.

The more Zhang Jingtian thought about it, the more possible it seemed. He also discovered that the sashimi restaurant was not far from the park.

Looking at it this way, the possibility becomes even greater.

Zhang Jingtian didn't think much about it and rushed to the restaurant serving sashimi without hesitation.

Because the original poster directly named this restaurant when posting, its business is very bad.

When Zhang Jingtian walked past, there was no one inside.

As soon as he entered, the sighing proprietress came over excitedly and asked, "What would you like to eat?"

Zhang Jingtian smiled and said, "Boss, I didn't come here for food."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Jingtian was angrily kicked out by the boss.

"I've told you so many times, my family doesn't sell human flesh! That person is deliberately slandering us, why don't you believe me?"

The proprietress was shouting at the door, as if she was appealing for justice.

Zhang Jingtian looked at the proprietress and found that she indeed did not have that signature fragrance.

Shouldn't it?

In other words, she was fine, but other people in the restaurant had problems.

So Zhang Jingtian stood up and smiled at the proprietress:

"I'm from the Sheriff's Department."

As he spoke, Zhang Jingtian took out the Public Security Bureau license that Tang Youai had given him.

With this thing in hand, you must cooperate no matter what the investigation is about.

Even though the proprietress was an ordinary person, she knew the rules, so she could only let Zhang Jingtian in reluctantly.

"Your Excellency, the Public Security Bureau, I really didn't kill anyone. I wouldn't even dare to kill a fish! I'm just a shopkeeper. It's not easy for ordinary people to earn a little money!"

Zhang Jingtian raised his eyebrows: "If you don't kill fish, who do you kill fish for?"

"It used to be a distant cousin of mine, but he asked for leave a couple of days ago, saying he wasn't feeling well, so my husband has been the one coming lately."

Zhang Jingtian suddenly realized: "Then have you and your husband ever eaten the food cooked by your cousin?"

The proprietress felt strange. Was this matter related to sashimi?

But he still shook his head: "Of course not, my cousin can't cook, he's just good with a knife. And he smells like fish, even the things he buys are disgusting to me."

Zhang Jingtian felt relieved. "If he comes looking for you, don't let him in. Notify me immediately. Your cousin is probably no longer human."
