"He really liked the pancakes I made."
"I envy you for having such a good husband. By the way, why haven't I seen him at the supermarket recently?"
"He's thinking about opening another branch, busy with choosing the location, doing research, and all sorts of things."
Jin Xiuhui's eyes widened, "Wow, you guys are opening a new supermarket?"
"Yes, he has always wanted to expand the business. In his words, we have successfully managed one supermarket, and all we need to do is replicate it."
"Where are you guys planning to open the new store?"
"Maybe in a Caucasian or Chinese community, it will depend on the surrounding community's situation, and the goods will also be adjusted accordingly."
"That sounds quite good..."
"Knock knock..."
A knocking sound from outside interrupted their conversation.
"Co in."
The door opened from the outside, and Luke and Xiao Hei walked in.
"Hi, Deputy Luke, what brings you here all of a sudden? We were just talking about you."
"Ms. Li, Ms. Jin, nice to see you both." Luke looked over the two won.
"Deputy Luke, please have a seat.
What brings you here today? Any news about that gang of thieves?"
Luke said, "Yes, we've caught the suspects who were stealing at the Jiangnan Supermarket."
"Really?" Li Shani was sowhat unsettled, to tell the truth, she had almost given up hope.
"Yes."
"Thank you so much." Li Shani sighed with relief, covering her chest, "This issue has been weighing on my mind, and I've been worried that they might steal from the supermarket again.
I can finally sleep peacefully.
Thank you."
"You're welco. Besides bringing this news today, there's sothing else." Luke looked over at Jin Xiuhui, "Ms. Jin, could we talk privately?"
"I... what do you need to talk about?" Jin Xiuhui seed nervous.
Luke didn't answer, continuing, "Do you want to talk here, or should we find another place?"
"Uh..." Jin Xiuhui pursed her lips, glancing at Luke and then at her cousin.
Li Shani was also puzzled, "Officer Luke, what do you need with my cousin?"
"Rember the original reason we ca?"
Li Shani took a deep breath, showing a surprised expression, "You ca to investigate the poisoning case at Shanyuan Supermarket. But what does that have to do with my cousin?"
Luke still didn't answer, "Ms. Jin, maybe you want to explain it yourself?"
Jin Xiuhui shook her head, "There must be so misunderstanding here, you've got it wrong, I never poisoned anyone at Shanyuan Supermarket."
Luke countered, "Then did you poison anyone at Jiangnan Supermarket?"
Instantly, Jin Xiuhui's face turned pale.
Li Shani was confused, "What's going on? There was no poisoning incident at my supermarket? Deputy Luke, are you mistaken?"
Luke explained, "That's because after the poisoning, the stolen goods were resold to Shanyuan Supermarket, causing the poisoning incident there.
In a way, you should thank those thieves."
Li Shani looked at Luke, then at her cousin, and looked back at Luke, "Are you saying my cousin poisoned my supermarket?
Impossible.
She couldn't have done that.
We have a good relationship.
She has no reason to do such a thing.
I can vouch for her."
Jin Xiuhui echoed, "Exactly, I never did such a thing, you are framing ."
"Do you think you are innocent?"
"Yes, there's definitely a misunderstanding here." Jin Xiuhui nodded.
"Good, we're here to resolve this misunderstanding today. May I ask you a few questions?"
"No, this suspicion itself is an insult to my character, I refuse to answer any of your questions."
"Then there's no helping it." Luke showed the arrest warrant, "Ms. Jin, we suspect you are involved in the poisoning case at Shanyuan Supermarket, you are under arrest."
"You can't do this, I didn't do it." Jin Xiuhui was very emotional.
Li Shani advised, "Cousin, calm down for a mont, I believe you're innocent, just explain everything and it'll be fine."
"I have nothing to say, they are just framing ."
"Jin Xiuhui, you are under arrest." Xiao Hei took out handcuffs, secured Jin Xiuhui's hands, and read the Miranda warning.
Then, Luke and Xiao Hei escorted Jin Xiuhui to the police car.
Li Shani stood at the entrance of the supermarket with a complex expression, ultimately only able to watch as the police car drove away.
...
Police Departnt.
After returning to the station, they processed the custody formalities.
Luke and Xiao Hei rested briefly, then began to interrogate Jin Xiuhui.
Compared to earlier at the supermarket, Jin Xiuhui was much calr, her hands intertwined, her head bowed, her expression unclear.
Luke knocked on the table, "Ms. Jin, please look up."
Jin Xiuhui slowly raised her head, her eyes red, "You've arrested the wrong person, I never poisoned anyone at Shanyuan Supermarket."
"Did you poison anyone at Jiangnan Supermarket?"
"No, that's my cousin's supermarket, how could I possibly poison there."
"On August 3, did you visit Jiangnan Supermarket?"
"I don't rember.
But I frequently visit her supermarket, so it wouldn't be unusual if I did."
"Right, visiting during the day wouldn't be a problem, but you went there at over eleven at night, after the supermarket was closed. That's suspicious."
"I didn't go, you're falsely accusing ."
"Are you sure you didn't go to Jiangnan Supermarket on the night of August 3, after 11 PM?"
"No."
Luke pulled out a photograph, "Is this person in the photo you?"
