Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad

Chapter 567 - 565: The Police Arrive

Looking at the barrage of comments fluttering across the screen, Qin Zhen and You You both had expressions of speechlessness.

The viewers in this livestream sure know how to talk nonsense!

However, what everyone mentioned about "poisoning" is still a possibility.

It’s just that the two of them checked all the ingredients previously used for the cakes, and found no abnormalities.

So how exactly was this "poisoning" done?

Just when the two girls were puzzled and confused, a sudden knock came from outside the door.

"I’ll go take a look!"

Upon hearing the sound, Qin Zhen immediately got up and went to check the situation.

Soon, she returned to the camera with two uniformed police officers.

These two officers were from the nearby precinct, which is why they arrived so quickly.

"Young Friend Qin, Young Friend You, was it you who called the police?"

The older of the two middle-aged officers asked.

He was quite familiar with this commercial street and had bought things from the cake shop before, so he knew Qin Zhen and You You fairly well.

"Uncle Zhao, it was us who reported it!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhen nodded lightly.

"What’s going on?"

The middle-aged officer asked curiously.

"Uncle Zhao, you should know about the recent situation with our cake shop, right?"

"For some unknown reason, the cakes we both make, when eaten, have a rancid, fishy smell."

"Even if we changed the ingredients, we still couldn’t restore the original taste..."

This time, You You spoke up proactively.

"Yeah, I know!"

The middle-aged officer nodded again after listening.

How could he not know about the problem inside the cake shop?

Some time ago, the cakes he bought from the shop were normal and very tasty.

But recently, the cakes he bought appeared fine on the surface.

Yet when eaten, there was always a nauseating fishy smell.

Due to this, his daughter had complained to him several times.

Qin Zhen continued, "We checked everything in the shop, but found no issues."

"We were left with no options, so we thought of seeking help from the Immortal Taoist who livestreams online."

"Unexpectedly, we were actually chosen tonight..."

Before she could finish, the young officer standing next to the middle-aged officer suddenly gleamed with excitement.

He quickly asked, "Is it the Immortal Taoist from Douhu platform?"

"Yes, yes, it’s him!"

Seeing the officer also knew the old Taoist, Qin Zhen finally showed a hint of a smile on her rounded face.

"Immortal Taoist?"

The middle-aged officer clearly hadn’t heard of any Immortal Taoist.

After listening to the conversation between his younger colleague and Qin Zhen, he looked perplexed.

"It’s the same Immortal Taoist who was mentioned in a previous report, instructing us to collaborate legally and compliantly..."

The young officer briefly explained.

"Oh? Isn’t he the supposedly all-knowing Immortal Taoist?"

The middle-aged officer’s eyes suddenly widened.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The young officer, along with Qin Zhen and You You, all nodded in agreement.

Seeing this scene, the viewers were delighted.

"Didn’t expect our old Taoist to be such a big deal, even the police try to cooperate."

"Of course! The old Taoist is all-knowing, hand him those cold case files, and boom, he solves them instantly!"

"Let me tell you, the old Taoist’s influence is far bigger than you can imagine!"

"Care to elaborate, dude?"

"Heavenly secrets can’t be revealed! I’m hiding..."

"Thanks for the invite. I’m in the livestream, just got off the plane, vested interests, small circle, many acquaintances..."

"Actually, you all might not know, our old Taoist has a collaborative relationship with the authorities!"

"What kind of collaborative relationship?"

"Remember when the vampire zombie incident happened in Minma? It was the old Taoist who resolved it. Isn’t that impressive?"

"Turns out the vampire zombie incident in Minma was resolved by the old Taoist!"

"Do you really need the old Taoist to deal with mere vampire zombies? Just let me, his senior disciple, handle it!"

"Buddy, you sure know how to take advantage."

"Old Taoist, when will you take on disciples? I’ll be waiting for your call with my full potential, fortune, and insight!"

"I dream of becoming the Taoist’s disciple!"

"Indeed, just keep dreaming."

"Taoist, are you still accepting disciples? Can I cultivate my immortality?"

"The Spiritual Qi Revival is starting, and with time, the era of everyone cultivating immortality is about to begin!"

"Master, I bow to you as your disciple!"

"I also want to cultivate immortality, not for anything else, just for heavenly sword control and exorcism and protection of the path!"

"I’m different from you all; I just wish to encounter some female monsters or witches, hehe..."

Looking at these comments scrolling by on the phone screen, everyone at the cake shop, all had a dark line down their faces.

The middle-aged officer shook his head in resignation and then asked, "You found the Immortal Taoist, so what did he say?"

"He hasn’t said yet!"

Qin Zhen chuckled, "The Immortal Taoist first told us to call the police, so we did."

"He possibly wants to wait for you to arrive and then explain..."

"Oh!"

The middle-aged officer nodded upon hearing.

His gaze shifted once more to the phone screen.

Qin Zhen caught on and asked, "Old Taoist, I’ve reported to the police!"

"The police are here now, so can you tell us now?"

Seeing that the police had arrived and personnel was complete, Lu Heng gently stroked his long beard, and slowly spoke, "The situation Young Friend Qin and Young Friend You are currently experiencing, just as the viewers speculated, is indeed due to someone deliberately poisoning!"

Poisoning?

Upon hearing these words, the middle-aged officer immediately perked up.

He eagerly asked, "Esteemed Taoist, who might have poisoned?"

Meanwhile, Qin Zhen and You You were filled with indignation.

No wonder such a big problem occurred in their cake shop; it turned out someone really did poison them!

At the same time, they were curious, who could be so cruel?

This is like a panda ordering delivery—a disaster to the fullest!

The two women immediately began calculating in their minds who could have possibly poisoned them.

But after thinking it over and over, they couldn’t pinpoint any suspect.

They glanced at each other, and both shook their heads silently.

"There are two people responsible for the poisoning!"

Lu Heng said with a light smile.

"What? There are... two?"

Upon these words, all four present in the cake shop were stunned.

The middle-aged officer naturally wore a shocked expression.

But soon afterward, he frowned deeply.

He originally thought even if it was a poisoning case, it would be a simple one.

After all, Qin Zhen and You You’s cake shop, besides making tasty cakes and bread, wasn’t particularly special.

Yet he didn’t expect there to be two poisoners!

Thinking this, he couldn’t help but look at the two women beside him.

He wanted to ask, how many people have you both offended?
