Chapter 1262 - 625: Baseless? The Right Remedy for the Problem

Watching Li Yu, there was a sense of admiration.

Luo Fei simply shook his head and said.

"I’m just very clear that dealing with people like this head-on is definitely not a good approach."

"So the best way is to make them feel afraid."

As Luo Fei spoke, his tone was rather eerie.

He also knew all too well that for someone like Sister Bai.

The incident with her star under her care wasn’t the scariest thing.

Instead, it’s if she did something harmful to the company or unfair to the artists, affecting her reputation as an agent, which might hinder her in recruiting other artists in the future.

This is what she fears the most.

This prompted Old Han nearby to give a thumbs-up.

"Mr. Luo, you’re still impressive. If it were me, I’m afraid I’d have no way to deal with such a person."

"Indeed, you have no idea, just now in the interrogation room, she cried and made a scene, almost to the point of hanging herself. If Old Han and I hadn’t coaxed her carefully, avoiding provoking her, who knows what else she would have done."

After a while.

As Li Yu and Luo Fei arrived at their destination.

The two suddenly saw that it was a traditional Chinese restaurant with an old-world charm.

Compared to the choking oily smells from the previous restaurant.

The air here was filled with the delicious scent of food.

Just as they were about to enter the restaurant.

Someone had already come out to greet them at the door.

"Officer, I assume you’re here to see our madam boss?"

The manager was a young lady dressed in a qipao.

Her tone was gentle, her speech courteous and humble.

Luo Fei couldn’t help but be a little surprised.

"Miss. So you know why we’re here?"

Seeing Luo Fei’s surprise.

The other party merely smiled.

"Officer, our boss already heard that you were coming over, and has been waiting here for quite some time."

The girl wasn’t angry, her tone was calm, her expression serene, giving off a vibe of gentle elegance, never ruffled, regardless of what others said.

She appeared to be well-read and poised, graceful.

The explanation made Luo Fei realize.

"So, your boss already knows the purpose of our visit this time?"

Seeing Luo Fei understand his intentions.

The manager smiled mysteriously.

"Indeed, our boss guessed long ago that you’d come knocking. As for the purpose, it’s none other than that spokesperson who died unexpectedly."

As they spoke, the manager led Luo Fei and the others into the boss’s office.

But as soon as the door was pushed open, the restaurant owner stood up with a stern face and said very seriously.

"Officer, I don’t care what you think. My answer is no. I absolutely wouldn’t do anything that defies justice or harms others, let alone kill anyone."

At this moment.

Looking over at the sound.

Seeing a middle-aged woman who had been well-maintained, waiting here for Luo Fei and the others.

She had wavy hair, red lips, fair skin, dressed in a professional suit that fit well.

Luo Fei also couldn’t help but be a little surprised.

"Boss, how should I address you?"

"My surname is Xu, you can call me Boss Xu."

The woman spoke, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

At the same time, she spoke quite seriously.

"Mr. Luo, no matter how you say it, I won’t admit to killing anyone. I have my beliefs, but they don’t require me to kill."

"I’m also disdainful of using such lowly means."

Boss Xu’s tone was resolute, her expression firm.

This surprised Luo Fei to some extent.

"Boss Xu, so you’re saying you already know why we’ve come knocking?"

"Of course. Although this hasn’t been reported in the newspapers yet, my informant at Boss Zhou’s restaurant fed back information to me half an hour ago."

Boss Xu’s words surprised Luo Fei somewhat.

"Boss Xu, if that’s the case, do you admit to having a vendetta with Boss Zhou?"

"Of course. But even if I don’t admit it, would that be useful? I believe this matter has already spread wildly at his restaurant."

Boss Xu, age 36.

Owner of Celestial Fragrance Restaurant, also its largest shareholder.

Additionally, two years ago, she was the head chef of this restaurant.

However, due to busy public affairs, she now hands over the restaurant duties to her subordinates.

And seeing Boss Xu’s agitated emotion, with a complex look on her face.

Luo Fei smiled faintly.

"Boss Xu, if this matter isn’t your doing, then there’s no need for you to be overly agitated. You just need to tell the police what you know truthfully."

Perhaps sensing that Luo Fei wasn’t here to accuse her.

Or perhaps wanting to prove her innocence.

So at this moment, Boss Xu took a deep breath.

Patiently explaining.

"Officer, I have always insisted on chefs manually cooking dishes. With my insistence, this private kitchen could exist today. Many guests come to our restaurant specifically for the handmade cooking. They believe that only in this way can dishes have the authentic wok flavor."

"I’ve asked them before if they’d like to introduce some pre-made dishes, most firmly said no."

Sensing the implications in Boss Xu’s words.

Luo Fei queried.

"Boss Xu, are you saying you’re strongly opposed to the concept of pre-made dishes, and can’t understand it?"
