Doomsday Code

Chapter 339 Insider

After the housekeeper left, the anger on Huidun's face disappeared, and Chen Cheng opposite him gave him a thumbs up.

"Your expression and emotion just now were very appropriate. Keep it up."

Huidun rolled his eyes at him and said:

"What are you pretending for? I was really angry just now. They replaced the tea leaves in order to poison me, but Tru didn't notice it.

Even if it is found that he was not involved in this matter, he cannot be entrusted with the management of the affairs of the mansion from now on."

Huidun said with some sadness and determination.

This cannot be blamed on Huidun for being mean and ungrateful. As the steward of a mansion, it is his job to manage the servants in the mansion.

But now, poisoning has occurred and he was completely unaware of it. This is his fault.

It is understandable that the person who poisoned the tea was hiding very deeply, but as the steward, he didn't even know that the fine tea sent by the tea merchant was replaced. This is not only dereliction of duty, but also incompetence.

Of course Huidun is not a heartless person. If this matter has nothing to do with him, Huidun will find him a house so that he can spend his old age in peace.

And if he was the mastermind behind this, then Huidun would never accept this kind of betrayal.

At this time, Tru hurried to the kitchen of the Earl's Mansion and asked the kitchen to prepare the food that had been prepared long ago and serve it on the table.

Then he summoned the maids and attendants in the mansion who were responsible for serving tea to Huidun.

At this time, Tru was holding a whip of punishment in his hand and looking at everyone with a gloomy face.

"Tell me, who among you has swapped the Earl's tea.

You are so bold that you even dare to steal and replace the Earl's things."

As he spoke, Tru swung the whip in his hand, causing a loud bang in the air.

At this time, all the maids and servants were so timid that they would not dare to replace the Earl's tea even if they were given a hundred courages.

However, one of the maids looked so timid, but there was a hint of thought in her eyes.

At this time, a fat cook who was busy in the kitchen heard Tru's scolding outside. He thought about it, and then took down the plate of vegetables in front of him.

At this time, another chef asked curiously:

"What are you doing? This is an out-of-season vegetable that the Count likes very much. Why are you taking it away?"

Seeing this, the fat chef smiled and said:

"This dish was a bit of a mess today, I'll make another one."

Tru also heard the noise in the kitchen. He was already annoyed by the substitution of tea leaves, and now he heard that something happened in the kitchen again.

And today the Earl invited Brown to dinner, and Huidun knew very well the position Brown held in his heart.

If something unexpected happens again, wouldn't it just mean that he, as the butler, is useless?

He immediately stepped into the kitchen, took the vegetables from the fat man's hand, picked up the chopsticks beside him, picked up one and tasted it.

"This is obviously no different from usual. There is no need to make this dish again. I will go and bring it to the Earl. You guys hurry up and prepare the other dishes."

Naturally, Truneng must have certain abilities and means to be a butler.

He is also an expert at tasting delicious food.

The reason why he was able to recruit the fat chef was because he had eaten a meal cooked by him, and then he valued his cooking skills.

After Tru left, the fat man came to the door reluctantly.

However, what no one saw was that during this period, the fat man made eye contact with one of the punished maids.

Then the two of them quickly looked away.

The fat man returned to the kitchen, put down the spatula, picked up the firewood and started to make a fire.

"Well, I don't know if there's something wrong with my tongue today, so I'll have to trouble you brothers to prepare my dishes. After I get my monthly salary, I'll invite you brothers out for some fun."

This fat guy is quite popular, and taste problems are very common among chefs, especially big chefs like them.

I don’t know how many dishes I try every day, and my sense of taste has become less sensitive through repeated attempts.

"Well, you're going to bleed a lot this time."

At this time, in the front yard restaurant, Chen Cheng had already started tasting the dishes served.

However, after he ate a few dishes and found nothing unusual, he relaxed.

It was not until he saw the vegetables that the butler Tru specially brought to him that he perked up again.

Because Tru is now one of the key suspects.

Tru put the dish down and said:

“I don’t know what’s wrong with this fat chef today. This dish is obviously very good, but he wants to throw it away and make it again.

There weren't many fresh vegetables prepared today, so I took the courage to bring them here.

But please rest assured, Count, I have tasted it beforehand and it tastes absolutely fine."

However, when Huidun heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and just said "Oh".

At this time, Chen Cheng also reached out and picked up a piece of vegetable and put it into his mouth.

After the vegetables entered his stomach, Chen Cheng's expression changed, and then he nodded slightly to Huidun.

Seeing this, Huidun stopped the chopsticks he was about to reach out for, and then looked at Tru and said:

"Has the thief who substituted the original with the new one been found?"

When Tru heard the tone in Huidun's words, he was also shocked.

He then confessed his crimes one after another and quickly went down to continue examining the servants.

After Tru left, Huidun frowned.

Then his eyes turned to the plate of his favorite vegetables in front of him.

The poisoner was really poisonous, and he knew his own taste very well, so he poisoned in a targeted manner.

However, just as Huidun was angry, Chen Cheng reached out and picked up the plate of vegetables, and then winked at Huidun.

Upon seeing this, Huidun dismissed the servants.

“Don’t be so quick to get angry. Since they only used this kind of quinoa poison, and judging from the dosage, it will take several months for you to die.

I think this situation is aimed at exploring the ruins after March.

Since they want to play this game of no evidence, we might as well accompany them to the end."

"Don't act rashly. Eat and drink as usual during these few months, but just put the vegetables directly into a space bag or something."

"At the same time, find an excuse to go out for a few days and don't touch the food in the mansion. The poison in your body should be cleared in these few days.

After coming back, I used the variable magic I taught me to check, and if there was any problem, I put the food away.

Three months later, in the ruins, we can also give the person behind this a little shock."

Not to mention the transformable magic shield, which I have almost forgotten about.

In recent months, he has been busy with various affairs in the territory and has no time or energy to practice.

When Chen Cheng reminded him of this, he remembered that he had also learned Brown's variable magic with Dean Adolf and others.

During these three months, he had to shift his focus back to cultivation.

At this time, Chen Cheng also remembered that Huidun had not practiced for a long time, and he didn't know that Principal Adolf and others had already developed the common magic pattern.

Then Chen Cheng took advantage of the meal time to talk to Huidun about the universal magic pattern.

In fact, it was best to give the task of classifying and organizing the magic patterns to Huidun. He practiced chaos magic, and he could actually discover the common magic patterns quickly.
