After the divorce, he took care of his child and sold fried rice; his ex-wife was filled with regret

They took off their gloves, looked at each other, and both had an expression of disbelief on their faces.

Xiao Wang, who was in charge of leading the team, walked quickly to Liu Jianguo with a stack of rapid test strips and a preliminary on-site investigation report in his hand.

Seeing this, Zhang Dawei thought they had found the problem and excitedly tried to rush inside again:

"How's it going? Did you find it? I told you he hid it! Where is it? Show it to everyone!"

"Get out of the way!"

This time, Liu Jianguo didn't give Zhang Dawei any face, shouting directly before turning to Xiao Wang, "How's the situation? Report the truth!"

Xiao Wang took a deep breath, glanced at Lin Fan, and his eyes even showed a hint of admiration.

He shook his head, handed the report to Liu Jianguo, and said loudly:

"We conducted a thorough search of the kitchen. We checked spice jars, soup pots, storage cabinets, and even trash cans and drains."

"In the end... nothing happened."

"Nothing?" Zhang Dawei screamed. "Impossible! There must be a hidden compartment! You didn't search carefully enough!"

Xiao Wang gave Zhang Dawei a cold look and continued his report:

"Not only are there no contraband items, but... Section Chief, to be honest, I've been in this line of work for seven or eight years, and I've never seen such a clean kitchen."

"The stovetop was free of oil stains, the floor was free of water stains, and knives and cutting boards were strictly separated for raw and cooked food. All ingredients, including beef, flour, and vegetables, underwent rapid random sampling inspections, and all were of superior quality! Even that pot of braising broth..."

Xiao Wang swallowed, seemingly savoring the aroma he had smelled while taking the sample.

"The braising liquid contains no chemical additives other than regular natural spices like star anise and cinnamon. All food safety indicators are up to standard, even far exceeding national standards!"

"This doesn't look like the kitchen of a roadside stall! The hygiene standards are almost as good as an operating room in a top-tier hospital!"

boom--!

These words, spoken with resounding force, echoed throughout the entire shop.

If Professor Liu's words just now were an authoritative personal endorsement, then this official on-site test report is irrefutable and irrefutable evidence!

The audience erupted in uproar, followed by thunderous applause.

"Wow! Cleaner than an operating room? I believe you! Look at that open kitchen, the glass is so clean I'm afraid I'll bump into it!"

"Hahahaha! I knew Boss Lin was innocent! That fatso was just jealous!"

"Zhang Dawei! What else do you have to say? Doesn't your face hurt?"

The jeers from the diners surged toward the door like a tidal wave.

Zhang Dawei stood there frozen, his face ashen, his lips trembling, trying to say something but unable to utter a sound.

How is that possible?

How could we possibly not be able to find any evidence against them?

In the restaurant business, which kitchen doesn't have some shady dealings? Even without poppies, it's normal to have some expired ingredients or unsanitary corners!

Is Lin Fan a freak? He turned the kitchen into a laboratory?

Liu Jianguo held the report, his face ashen.

He felt like he had been made a fool of by Zhang Dawei, not only wasting manpower but also almost wronging a good shop that even Professor Liu recognized.

He strode up to Zhang Dawei and slammed the report in his hand into Zhang Dawei's chest.

"Snapped!"

"Zhang Dawei! Is this the solid evidence you're talking about? Is this the real-name report you're making?"

Liu Jianguo pointed at Zhang Dawei's nose and angrily rebuked him, "This is malicious whistleblowing! It's disrupting market order! It's wasting administrative resources!"

"I...I..." Zhang Dawei's legs went weak, and he almost knelt on the ground. "Section Chief Liu, it's a misunderstanding...it's all a misunderstanding...I might...I might have misread it..."

"You misjudged? You misjudged, yet you dared to bring so many people to shut down someone's shop? You misjudged, yet you dared to publicly accuse someone of poisoning?"

Liu Jianguo sneered, "Alright, enough explaining. According to relevant regulations, we need to investigate your malicious whistleblowing!"

"Also, we've received complaints from residents about the hygiene of your Dawei Hot Pot restaurant. We'll be going to check it out tomorrow!"

"Ah?! No! No, Section Chief Liu!" Zhang Dawei let out a desperate scream.

He knows best what the situation is like in his shop right now. If they really investigate like Cha Linfan, he'll be fined until he's bankrupt!

"Take him away! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

With a wave of his hand, Liu Jianguo sent two law enforcement officers forward, one on each side, to "invite" the weak-legged Zhang Dawei away.

After dealing with the farce, Liu Jianguo turned around, his face once again displaying a warm smile, walked up to Lin Fan, and extended his hands:

"Mr. Lin, I'm so sorry. We didn't do our job properly and listened to the slander of some unscrupulous people, which has disturbed your business."

"However, this inspection has also proven that your store is indeed a trustworthy and reliable business that people can trust!"

"We will publish today's test results on our official website later, which will also serve as a clarification for you!"

Lin Fan reached out and shook hands with Liu Jianguo, his expression remaining calm. He did not appear flattered by the other party's apology, nor did he show any resentment for the grievance he had just suffered.

"Section Chief Liu, you're too kind. Cooperating with the inspection is a citizen's duty. I just need to clear my name."

This composure in the face of both honor and disgrace earned him silent nods of approval from Liu Jianguo and Professor Liu standing beside him.

This child is destined for greatness.

"Alright, everyone disperse! Don't delay their business!" Professor Liu waved his hand, maintaining order like a patriarch.

Law enforcement officers withdrew, and the sound of sirens faded into the distance.

The atmosphere inside the store has returned to its lively state, even more so than before.

Everyone agrees that a store that can achieve "zero defects" under such a surprise inspection is truly amazing! You can eat with peace of mind!

"Boss! Give me a bowl of noodles! With an egg! To calm my nerves!"

"Me too! I was so scared just now, I need to eat more to replenish myself!"

Revenge spending erupted instantly.

Lin Fan returned to the stove.

After this ordeal, he became even more composed.

A system notification sounded in my mind at just the right moment:

【Ding! 】

[A surge in host reputation value detected!]

[Hidden achievement triggered: Invincible!]

[Achievement Reward: Special Item - Beginner Bad Luck Sticker x1 (Can be used on a designated target, causing them to be plagued by bad luck for the next 24 hours, making even drinking water difficult).]

As Lin Fan listened to the system's reward, his gaze swept across the crowd and fell upon the law enforcement vehicle that had disappeared around the corner.

Zhang Dawei was taken away, but this matter is not over yet.

"A 'bad luck sticker'?"

Lin Fan's lips curled into a smile.

Since you like to do dirty tricks, then don't blame me.

"System, apply the 'Bad Luck Sticker' to Zhang Dawei."

[Ding! Successfully used! Target: Zhang Dawei. Effective date: Immediately.]
