The next morning, Lu Ming and Zhang Ziyang met and exchanged ideas. Zhang Ziyang went to the pier to investigate the matter of the American Consulate's vehicle picking up Sheng Muyi the day he disappeared, while Lu Ming went to Tongren Hospital to investigate the poisonous mushroom incident.

Lu Ming studied evidence law in the United States, and the judicial appraisal procedure for physical evidence is very strict.He knew that the poisonous mushroom provided by Yuan Mingzhu had lost its legal effect as evidence after such a long time and the evidence collection was not transparent.

But for detectives, this is extremely precious physical evidence and an important basis for case-solving reasoning.

Lu Ming took the tram to Tongren Hospital, went directly to the dean's office, found the dean, and explained his purpose.

Lu Ming had a relationship with Director Wu of Tongren Hospital. He is a doctor of medicine who studied in the UK. After returning to China, he was hired as the director of Shanghai Tongren Hospital.

But he knew people, but they didn't know him.

Lu Ming's circle is very narrow, he doesn't want to squeeze into Sheng Youde's rich and powerful class, and he doesn't want to get involved in the circle represented by the second generation son of Shanghai Bund, represented by Sheng Di.In his free time, Lu Ming would like to chat with the fellow villagers in Huzhou. He also had occasional contact with the people from the Cao Gang around Yuan Mingzhu, and the romantic places Zhang Ziyang went to and from.

After hearing his reason for coming clearly, Dean Wu was dubious and left without saying a word to him.

Lu Ming knew that he didn't believe him, so he went out to make a phone call to confirm. Although there was a phone in the office, the other party obviously wanted to save face and didn't make the phone call face to face.

After Dean Wu came back, the suspicious expression on his face disappeared, but it became a little more complicated and serious.

"I went to check the files. At that time, the mass poisoning of the Sheng family was a rare emergency in our hospital. At that time, we didn't have time to test it, but we immediately gave the patient gastric lavage."

"No test?" Lu Ming didn't believe it.

"No, it's just a case of poisoning by eating poisonous mushrooms by mistake. Normally, gastric lavage is used for detoxification, and there is no need for laboratory tests. Besides, even if the test comes out, there is no corresponding antidote injection, and gastric lavage is still required." Wu The dean explained patiently.

"Didn't you test it afterwards?" Lu Ming asked.

He didn't believe that Tongren Hospital was so unprofessional, no matter before or after encountering a poisoning incident, it would definitely do a laboratory test, which was a medical routine.

Poisonous mushrooms are indeed common, but the toxicity of poisonous mushrooms is different. If the toxicity is found in the test, who said that the corresponding antidote cannot be developed?

"No, poisonous mushrooms don't need to be tested." Dean Wu said coldly.

"That's bothering you." Dealing with intellectuals, even if the door is closed in this situation, there will be no gaps.Lu Ming got up and left.

On the second floor, I found the laboratory, and after knocking on the door, I saw a girl with a round face. She was very beautiful and had a good temperament.

"This is a laboratory, idlers are not allowed to enter." The girl immediately raised her eyebrows when she saw that she was not from this hospital.

"Doctor, that's it. I was entrusted by Chairman Sheng to check the test report of the collective poisoning in Sheng's mansion at that time."

"Oh, wait a minute." After saying that, the door closed.

Lu Ming had no choice but to stand outside the door and wait obediently.

"Are you Mr. Lu Ming?" At this time, a female doctor in a white coat walked up the corridor.

"You are..." Lu Ming didn't recognize it all at once.

"We met at the British consulate. I'm Yan Xiaohui, don't you remember?"

"Oh, I remembered, I'm sorry, look at my memory." Lu Ming knocked on his forehead and said.

He actually met this Yan Xiaohui at a reception held by the British Consulate.

When Lu Ming was studying in the United States, a British classmate Fielding was sent to the British Legation in Shanghai as a secretary after graduation. When he was in the United States, Lu Ming and Fielding had a close friendship and shared similar interests. They traveled the world together during their holidays. In many places, especially in Europe, Fielding is Lu Ming's guide and commentator of cultural and historic sites.

Lu Ming also taught Fielding Chinese. In the past four years, Fielding's Chinese fluency was no less than that of ordinary Chinese, so he was sent to China after graduation.

The invitation for that reception was personally sent by Fielding to Lu Ming. Lu Ming didn't like this kind of party, but he went there because he wanted to meet his classmates.

At the reception, Lu Ming did meet all the famous people in Shanghai. Because of his relationship with Sheng Youde, he was immediately taken seriously. Approach Sheng Youde through him.

Lu Ming had no choice but to perfunctory one by one, and then he saw a beautiful girl walking back and forth among the crowd. At first, he thought it was a new socialite who debuted in Shanghai Bund, but it was only after Fielding introduced him to him that he knew about this girl. The child's name is Yan Xiaohui, and his English name is Rose, which means rose in English.

Yan Xiaohui is a master of medicine who studied in the UK. Although she returned to China, she has become a British citizen during her study abroad, so she has become a British expatriate.

At that time, there were very few expatriates with foreign nationality, so she was invited to this reception. In addition, Yan Xiaohui's father was also a spinning king in Shanghai and had a close relationship with the British consortium.

"Ms. Yan, why are you working as a doctor here?" Lu Ming laughed.

"I've been here since I returned to China. By the way, Mr. Lu, are you still committed to the detective career?" Yan Xiaohui smiled while covering her mouth.

"Let's have a little hobby, and talk about career will be far away. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to make money to support my family, so I'll just let myself go." Lu Ming said honestly.

"I'm not laughing at you, but I admire you for daring to choose a career you like." Yan Xiaohui said seriously.

"Understood, thank you for your encouragement." Lu Ming cupped his hands in greeting.

It is indeed a ridiculous thing to open a detective agency in Shanghai.China's law itself is not sound, and Shanghai is a place where good and bad people are mixed, and gangster forces are everywhere, infiltrating every corner.

Coupled with the privileges of the concession, even the police station has become a monster with four faces. In such an illegal society, the police have no authority, and the detective industry can be imagined.

In the words of ordinary people, it is really full.

But everyone doesn't laugh at Lu Ming, at least he has the capital to mess around, his family has enough capital, and he has a strong enough backer in Shanghai Beach. An aspiring young man.

"I heard that your business license is a law firm, why don't you take on cases?" Lu Ming understood Yan Xiaohui's meaning. Law firms are the right way, and detective offices are for jokes.

"You even know this? Admiration." Lu Ming was a little surprised.

"How big is Shanghai Beach? Mr. Lu is also a man of the younger generation. If I don't know about such a trivial matter, then I'm too incompetent." Yan Xiaohui laughed.

What Lu Ming applied for was indeed a business license for a law firm. He wanted to apply for a license for a detective agency, but there is no such industry in China, so he doesn't know how to issue such a license.

In foreign countries, individual detective agencies are managed by the local police station, but also under the double-layer management of the bar association. The license of the detective agency is issued by the police station, and it is a peripheral organization that cooperates with the police in solving cases.

The Shanghai Police Department had never issued such a license, and he didn't know how to apply for it. Lu Ming had no choice but to register a law firm's license with the Shanghai Bar Association.

"Have you inquired about me? Are you going to give me business?" Lu Ming was a little sensitive and asked with a smile.

"No, I heard someone mention it unintentionally. After all, we met each other by chance, so I asked a few more questions." Yan Xiaohui blushed, a little shy.

Ever since the last reception, Yan Xiaohui's heart has been engraved with the shadow of a beautiful young man. After she returned, she asked her father to help him investigate all the situation of Lu Ming.

This matter is extremely simple, because many people in Shanghai know about Lu Ming's situation, especially Sheng Di knows Lu Ming's bottom line.Father Yan found Sheng Di, and within 5 minutes he knew all about Lu Ming.

Hearing that Lu Ming was engaged to Miss Yuan Mingzhu, Yan Xiaohui was depressed for a long time, so she never approached Lu Ming again.Today, when I met Lu Ming in the hospital by chance, her silent heart started beating again.

"What are you doing here? Is it you, or why did you come here for the test?" Yan Xiaohui asked.

"It's not me doing the test, but this..." Lu Ming explained the situation, and Yan Xiaohui smiled.

"What are you laughing at?" Lu Ming was a little puzzled.

"Just wait, the back door will open after work." Yan Xiaohui covered her mouth and laughed non-stop.

Lu Ming suddenly realized: "I dare to let others hang here."

"Come with me. I just got off work. I'll treat you to a cup of coffee. Things take time, and there's no point in being anxious." Yan Xiaohui said generously.

"I should invite you."

"It's all the same, I'm going to change clothes."

Lu Ming walked out of the hospital and waited for Yan Xiaohui at the gate.After a while, Yan Xiaohui came out wearing a fashionable dress, without the enchanting and wild beauty that he saw at the reception at the British Legation that day, but another kind of intellectual beauty that Lu Ming especially admired for senior intellectuals.

"What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?" Yan Xiaohui was a little embarrassed by his gaze.

"Nothing, very good, you are more beautiful than when I first saw you." Lu Ming laughed.

"Are you kidding me? The one who is engaged to you is the beauty. We are all rural firewood girls." Yan Xiaohui said.

Lu Ming didn't dare to answer the question, but he was muttering in his heart, how come she knows about Mingzhu, I'm almost transparent with her.Lu Ming is unwilling to discuss these issues, he just wants to ask Yan Xiaohui to help solve the mystery of poisonous mushrooms.

"You admit it if you don't say anything?" Yan Xiaohui refused to let go.

"Chun Lan Qiu Chrysanthemum, each has its own victories. In the hundred gardens, there are peonies, roses, autumn chrysanthemums, and orchids like the beauty of the valley. They are all the ultimate in beauty. I can't say who is more beautiful than the other." Lu Ming knew that he couldn't hide. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with it.

"I have heard that Mr. Lu is extremely intelligent, and he is the best at pleasing girls. When I saw him today, he is indeed better than being famous." Yan Xiaohui laughed.

She really admired Lu Ming's intelligence. If a man belittles his fiancée behind his back in order to please other women, he is a fool.

"Where, coaxing girls is a man's bounden duty. I'm still far behind. The second master Bao in Dream of the Red Chamber is the role model for all men in the world to learn from." Lu Ming said.

"Then tell me, what kind of flower am I in the hundred gardens?"

"Of course you are a rose, you live up to your name." Lu Ming cleverly said.

"Although I feel that your words are not right, but no matter how you listen to them, they are very helpful." Yan Xiaohui really showed a particularly helpful expression.

"I don't have any good qualities, I just like to tell the truth, because this offends many people." Lu Ming continued poorly.

But this is also the truth. He usually likes to speak out and offended many people, but those who offend are all men. As long as he treats girls, he will show the patience and tenderness of Master Bao to satisfy the girls.

He is not a playboy, but feels that it is too unfair and cruel for women to be born in China. Even women born in rich Chinese families are also the targets of being strangled by feudal ethics.

So as a man, he has a sense of original guilt.
