Chapter 268 Puppet

At this time, even though the sky outside is so bright, the fireplace in this room is so warm.

But it still brought to everyone the coldness that surged up from deep in their hearts.

Chen Fan noticed that among the six people in front of him, not everyone was particularly afraid.

The slightly younger forestry chief and agriculture chief were scared, but not that scared.

Chen Fan guessed that they probably weren't at the scene when those things happened, and they just heard about them later.

This made Chen Fan frown slightly. Among the group of people, there seemed to be one person whose reaction seemed to be a bit off...

"call--"

Jose let out a heavy breath, with an apology on his face.

"Sorry, I was still working in the town's patrol team at the time, so I was one of the first to arrive when the crime was reported. Those things had a great impact on me."

Chen Fan can understand this.

I'm afraid that if anyone sees that scene with their own eyes, it will be frightened for the rest of their lives?

After resting for a while, Jose took a sip of maple leaf tea to calm down, and then continued his story.

Just, suddenly!

In front of him, Jose's eyes widened and bulged, as if he had seen something terrifying.

He pointed behind Chen Fan with a pale face, a look of fear on his face.

"Baron Simon, Baroness!"

"No, Shirley!"

Jose's fearful voice made everyone in the room widen their eyes and look behind Chen Fan.

The empty place seemed to hide something terrifying.

The sheriff's eyes widened as well, just like José's.

Everyone in the room was so frightened that they fled in all directions, and even Chen Fan couldn't be called back.

Chen Fan just scanned it, confirming that there was absolutely nothing, and frowned instantly.

"Aren't you already dead? Why do you appear in this place!"

"Impossible, this can't be..."

Jose was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head because he was so hard.

But before he could shout out completely, Chen Fan punched him directly on the temple of the head.

Chen Fan is no longer a young boy who has just debuted. He has mastered the power of his moves.

This blow was just right to make the opponent unconscious.

And there was a scream outside.

However, it did not attract Chen Fan to leave the room, but stayed here.

A few minutes later, Jones hurried in to report.

"Someone is dead outside. Listening to their shouting, it sounds like the Sheriff is dead."

Hearing this, Chen Fan instantly narrowed his eyes, his eyes dark.

Really interesting.

Dare to kill someone right under your nose!

Do you want to provoke yourself, or do you mean that you don't take yourself seriously at all?

"Jones, look at Jose personally. No one is allowed to approach him until I come back."

"If Jose wakes up, continue to knock him out. Don't let anyone touch him in any way!"

Jones had not seen Chen Fan with such a serious expression for a long time, and he nodded heavily at this time.

When he walked out of the room, he immediately saw the body lying on the ground.

It's the Sheriff!

A group of people were surrounding him, but no one dared to step forward.

When Chen Fan walked over, he saw that the other party's eyes were staring straight out of the ground.

This is true death with eyes open!

With such a terrifying death, no wonder no one dared to get closer.

He did not touch the body directly, but found a stick and examined it carefully for a while.

"Go and invite Lilia."

...     The town is not big, and after a while, Lilia hurried from the hotel.

Before she arrived, Chen Fan had already gathered all the relevant people and items.

"These people, after just drinking the tea, seem to be poisoned and hallucinating. Please help me find out what's going on."

Although Chen Fan also knew something about pharmacy, he could only get started.

Compared to the Dawn Elves, who are naturally friendly to nature, they are naturally far behind.

Lilia went to hold on to those cups of maple leaf tea, while Chen Fan was in the hall, looking at everyone here.

After what happened, Chen Fan had people seal the place directly.

Everyone who was here before can now leave.

If it is certain that the tea is poisonous, then the murderer who poisoned it is naturally here.

However, Chen Fan drank tea himself at first, but nothing happened.

So, now this is where Chen Fan is confused.

Chen Fan only saw that this happened suddenly after Jose finished drinking tea, but he did not see what happened to the Sheriff.

After a while, Lilia came out of the room.

"There is a substance in the tea. If you drink it alone, nothing will happen."

"This reaction only occurs when the two are added together when exposed to another identical substance."

"I have used magic skills to help him clean up the toxins in his body. It's just up to him when he wakes up."

Two substances!

Jose and the Sheriff were not the only ones drinking tea in the room.

This means that it is very likely that Jose and the Sheriff had contact in another place before Chen Fan came.

That's why both have the same reaction.

In this way, it is hard to be sure whether the person who poisoned him is still here.

After all, the maple leaf tea was placed in the kitchen and anyone could come into contact with it.

Be prepared in advance. There is always a way to make the two of them, who have been in the Management Bureau for a long time, drink the tea.

In this way, Chen Fan found that many things made sense.

The other party didn't want to provoke him.

Thinking back, his sudden appearance and sudden request of Julia to go out to fetch tea were all random reactions.

The person hiding in the secret wanted to kill Jose and the Sheriff.

But he didn't want to just kill him in front of Chen Fan.

If Chen Fan hadn't suddenly appeared, the two of them would have died suddenly.

It seems that someone wants to silence Jose and the two of them.

Chen Fan walked towards the remaining four.

"What Mayor Jose said before, do you know what will happen next?"

Several people shook their heads in confusion.

"Then tell me, what are you afraid of?"

Chen Fan looked directly into their eyes, as if he wanted to see through their inner thoughts.

Their previous reactions had betrayed themselves. These people definitely knew something.

After hearing Chen Fan's questioning, several people widened their eyes, gritted their teeth, and remained silent.

It was obvious that what happened with Jose and the Sheriff had frightened them.

These people were afraid that if they said anything nonsense, they would end up like the two of them.

Even if you are not a small official, you don't dare to say nonsense.
