Chapter 367 Poisoning the Water Source
Chapter 367 Poisoning the Water Source
Ji Jingshen quickly took out his phone and reported to the police that his home had been poisoned. He also instructed his secretary to go to his home to collect water and food samples collected during this period, which would be sent to the hospital for examination.
Once all the items were collected, Ji Jingshen rushed to Xue Jianchen's office, who had just finished his work: "Take these things to your hospital's procuratorate for examination to see if there are any problems."
"Why are you bringing these food and water for inspection?"
Ji Jingshen briefly explained, "Qianyi and Suisui are both hospitalized in your hospital. Some people in our family have also developed the same symptoms, and the onset time was around the same as Qianyi and Suisui. So I suspect that something in our house has been poisoned. Please expedite the tests for me. I need the results."
Upon hearing that their family had been poisoned, Xue Jianchen immediately became serious. He took the bag from Ji Jingshen and walked out.
"I'll go check the test now."
After returning home, Xue Jianchen told Wenya about the poisoning at Ji Jingshen's house and the hospitalization of Song Qianyi and Sui Sui.
Wenya's expression changed drastically upon hearing this: "How could such a thing happen? Someone even poisoned their home! How are they now?"
“I’ve already visited them with Jing Shen. Their condition is relatively stable now. It’s just that Sui Sui’s symptoms are more severe because she is so young. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and she will be fine after a while.”
Wenya, who was sitting next to her, frowned: "Then I'll take Yanxi to see them tomorrow."
The next morning, Wenya brought the soup she had prepared and rushed to the hospital with Yanxi.
Song Qianyi, dressed in a hospital gown, sat on a chair next to Sui Sui, with an IV needle still inserted in the back of her hand, looking at Sui Sui on the hospital bed.
There was a knock at the door. Song Qianyi looked up and saw Wenya leading Yanxi in. She was pleasantly surprised: "Wenya, Yanxi, what brings you to the hospital?"
"We came to see you. How could such a serious thing happen to you without telling me? I only found out you were hospitalized from Chen. How are you feeling now?"
Wenya walked over to them and placed the thermos on the table. Yanxi also ran to the bedside and looked at Suisui on the bed.
Song Qianyi sighed: "I'm doing alright now, but Sui Sui has suffered a lot because of this."
"This is not your fault. Blame the person who poisoned it. How dare they put poison directly into the water source? This is tantamount to murder for money."
Yanxi, holding Suisui's hand, said, "Suisui, you must get better soon. When you get better, come to my house to play. I have lots of toys at home, and I'm sure you'll love them."
Yanxi has become much more cheerful now. Song Qianyi is very pleased to see the change in Yanxi. Wenya's education of Yanxi is very good. She no longer notices the unease in Yanxi before. Now she can finally rest assured.
Song Qianyi asked Wenya about their recent situation. The two chatted for a while, and then Wenya took Yanxi back first, saying they would visit them again in a few days.
The next day, Ji Jingshen put down his work and sat in the VIP ward. Two policemen found them outside the ward. Ji Jingshen and Song Qianyi exchanged a glance, and he got up and walked outside.
"Officer Zhao, how is the situation?"
Officer Zhao, with a serious yet somewhat helpless expression, handed the investigation report to Ji Jingshen: "Take a look at this investigation report first. Based on your description, we went to the area around your home to investigate and found that it wasn't just your family that had this problem. The scope of the poisoning was too wide and the dosage was relatively small. According to the time when you fell ill, it was also difficult to determine the specific time of the poisoning. Therefore, it is very difficult to find out who poisoned you."
Ji Jingshen carefully read the investigation report, and it was indeed exactly as Officer Zhao had said. He also knew that it would take time and manpower to find out who was behind this.
"I understand. Officer Zhao, please continue to keep an eye on things for me. Just let me know if you make any new discoveries."
After seeing Officer Zhao and his colleague off, Ji Jingshen's eyes darkened. He glanced at the investigation report and had already made up his mind. There was no other possibility for this matter except for the Lin family.
He relayed what had just happened to Song Qianyi, who angrily slammed her hand against the wall: "They are truly heartless. To get revenge on us, they actually poisoned our water source. They want to make us disappear from this world without anyone knowing."
"Of course, this matter cannot be left like this. Whatever they do, we must retaliate in kind."
Song Qianyi hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but worry: "But if we retaliate in kind, won't we get burned and something bad happen?"
"I've already had my secretary take samples before the police sealed off the area. Judging by the timeline, Xue Jianchen's research should be almost complete, and he should be able to get the same drug soon. Then we can add the drug directly to the neighbor's water source. Even if they find out it was us, they'll have no choice but to suffer in silence."
Ji Jingshen's words were a revelation to Song Qianyi. If the Lin family reported it to the police, the police would quickly make comparisons and trace it back to them, at which point their claims would be exposed.
Hearing that Ji Jingshen had been frequently visiting the hospital recently, Lin Chen was very happy, as Ji Jingshen and Song Qianyi were already too busy to take care of themselves.
When were they admitted to the hospital?
The secretary responded truthfully: "About a week after the poisoning."
"Okay, I understand. Go and prepare to contact the authorities and submit an application to them stating that the Ji Group is not capable of handling this project, and the Lin Group is willing to accept it."
Lin Chen issued the order with smug satisfaction. Soon, the franchised production rights would be in his hands. Even if the Ji Group had so much money, it would all be for nothing in the end. They couldn't compete with him at all.
But before Lin Chen could submit his written application, bad news came from the Lin family: for some unknown reason, members of the Lin family were being hospitalized one after another.
Lin Chen also developed the same symptoms as Song Qianyi, becoming increasingly weak. He immediately sent people to investigate and discovered that the toxins were exactly the same as those he had added to the water source near the Ji family's residence, but he dared not report it to the police.
If I called the police, I would also be implicated, so I could only grit my teeth and bear it.
When the elders of the Lin family learned of this, they immediately blamed Lin Chen: "Why did you have to use such drastic measures? Now we've all ended up in the hospital. Who will manage the Lin Group now?"
