Chapter 255: Drugged
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Shu Yu finished instructing Meng Yunzheng, she took the medicine bottle from Zhao Xi and left.
Upon leaving the Meng residence, she did not go back. Instead, she turned around and walked out of Liufang Alley.
The afternoon before, Shu Yu had accompanied the old lady around half of the county town to collect rags, so she naturally managed to pick up news here and there.
For example, the injured Jiang Li was soon discovered and carried back to the Jiang residence. The incident had happened outside, so news of it had already spread like wildfire.
Furthermore, the Jiang family had already reported to the authorities and were doing their best to search for the culprit. For that reason, they also offered remuneration for providing clues about the murderer.
To be honest, Shu Yu was tempted by the reward and almost turned herself in.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnother piece of news was that the doctor who treated Jiang Li’s injuries was a doctor from the clinic she had brought Daya to.
That clinic was the best in the entire county, and the consultation fee was also the most expensive.
The day before, the doctor made a house visit to treat Jiang Li. Today, he would naturally go for a follow-up visit.
Shu Yu went to look for him.
The door of the clinic was already open, and many patients came early in the morning.
Shu Yu was not there to see a doctor. but she used the excuse of getting medicine to get in. She took out the prescription prescribed by Doctor Hu, who had treated Daya, so the pharmacist quickly led her in.
There were many people who wanted to get medicine, but there were more who wanted to see a doctor, so Shu Yu had to wait for just a while.
While waiting, Shu Yu began to look for Doctor Liu, who was treating Jiang Li, and waited for the right time to act.
Shu Yu leaned against the counter. Not long after, she heard someone calling Doctor Liu.
Doctor Liu hurriedly came out and instructed the pharmacist, “Have you finished preparing the medicine I asked for? Hurry up, I still have to go to the Jiang residence.”
The pharmacist behind the counter hurriedly replied, “It’ll be ready soon.”
Shu Yu chuckled. Her chance had come.
She moved closer and took advantage of the time when the pharmacist went to the side to get a string for the medicine packet to slip in the powder.
Then, she saw the pharmacist hurriedly wrap up the medicinal herbs and secure them with string before handing them to Doctor Liu.
Doctor Liu placed the medicine packet into his medicine box, picked it up, and left after bidding farewell to the shopkeeper.
Shu Yu also took her requested medicine and followed behind Doctor Liu.
Doctor Liu went straight to the Jiang residence. After Shu Yu confirmed that the medicine was indeed for Jiang Li, she was slightly relieved.
Nevertheless, Shu Yu didn’t go home even after that. Instead, she found a breakfast stall nearby and ordered a bowl of dumplings.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShu Yu had left early in the morning before breakfast at home was ready.
After working so hard for a while, she was very hungry.
As Shu Yu ate, she tilted her ears to listen to the discussions of the people beside her.
The matter of Jiang Li being beaten up had caused a huge ruckus. Everyone in the vicinity knew about it. After all, the third scion of the Jiang family had been lawless for so many years. Not to mention being beaten, even those who scolded Jiang Li would suffer if he found them out.
Now, someone actually smashed Jiang Li in the head less than 300 meters away from the Jiang residence. That person was really… a true hero for the civilians.
Meanwhile, the Jiang family was clueless about the culprit’s identity.
Shu Yu ate the dumplings while listening to everyone’s praise.
Jiang Li had indeed been evil for many years and offended many. More than half of the civilians around were gloating over Jiang Li’s misfortune.
After finishing a bowl of dumplings, Shu Yu saw Meng Yunzheng walking over from afar.
Meng Yunzheng didn’t have anything on him, but he looked very refreshed.
There wasn’t a trace of the bamboo and the note Shu Yu gave him..
