57: What’s going on, corpse-carrying in Xiangxi?
Because Qin Jiang had reported drugs when he called the police, two of the six officers were anti-drug police.
They opened the takeout box and saw that it was just normal hotpot.
Xing frowned for a moment.
"Young man, didn't you say there were drugs in this bag? Where are they?"
Before Qin Jiang could speak, the middle-aged man started yelling.
"I told you I run a legitimate business, how could I possibly touch something like drugs?"
"You've arrested the wrong person, quickly let me go!"
Qin Jiang couldn't help but glance at Xing.
Are these people really that unprofessional?
He took out the disposable chopsticks from the bag, then picked out a fruit from inside and handed it to the middle-aged man.
"You tell me, what is this thing?"
The middle-aged man's face changed, and he stammered, "Fragrant... fragrant fruit, isn't it? This spice is added when stir-frying hotpot base. Is there a problem?"
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, the anti-drug police officer standing nearby immediately reacted.
"This isn't fragrant fruit, this is poppy!"
Previously, when they heard Qin Jiang report drugs, they subconsciously thought it was either white powder or pills, and never even considered poppy.
But now that Qin Jiang had picked out the poppy, they naturally recognized it at a glance.
The middle-aged man shook his head repeatedly, denying it.
"No, this is fragrant fruit. I bought it at the wet market."
Qin Jiang smiled slightly.
"Still being stubborn at this point? There's no need, is there?"
"I am a Chinese medicine doctor, and they are anti-drug police. Do you think we can't tell whether this thing is fragrant fruit or poppy?"
Qin Jiang pointed to the top of the fruit and said:
"Whether it's fragrant fruit or poppy, you just need to look at the top."
"If the top is round and has no protrusions, then it's fragrant fruit."
"But if the top has sawtooth-like protrusions, then it's poppy. This is the biggest difference between the two."
As soon as Qin Jiang said this, the anti-drug police officer nodded repeatedly from the side.
Although this method of distinction is a bit crude, it can indeed quickly differentiate them.
Netizens in the live stream praised him one after another.
"No wonder they say it has to be my Brother Qin, professionals are just different, he explains it in a way that's easy to understand!"
"This boss is purely showing off his limited skills. He wouldn't not know that poppy is also a Chinese medicine, would he? Dr. Qin's medical skills are so high, how could he not be able to distinguish Chinese medicinal herbs?"
"Holy cow, seriously? Poppy is Chinese medicine? Is Chinese medicine that awesome?"
"Brother, go look through the Compendium of Materia Medica, and you'll find that everything in the world is Chinese medicine, including your sweat, your feces, and even sanitary pads."
With the evidence conclusive, the criminal police directly handcuffed the middle-aged man and then took him to the store for a surprise inspection to see if there was any more in stock.
Xing glanced at Qin Jiang before leaving, and said with satisfaction, "Thank you for your contribution to Dragon Country's anti-drug efforts. Goodbye."
After saying that, Xing left with a group of police officers.
Under everyone's astonished gaze, Qin Jiang returned to the medical hall.
Qin Jiang looked at the dumbfounded Liu Jinhai and said indifferently, "Now you know why you ran to the hotpot restaurant every day, don't you?"
Liu Jinhai swallowed.
"Dr. Qin, are you saying that boss put poppy husks in the hotpot base?"
"That's right."
"It's precisely because of the addition of this substance that you found it so addictive, feeling uncomfortable all over if you didn't eat it for a day, and even going up to the second floor felt uninteresting."
Liu Jinhai said while scratching himself, "Yes, yes, yes, I was wondering why, if I didn't eat this hotpot for a while, my whole body felt like ants were crawling on it. So it really was a problem with this hotpot restaurant!"
Liu Old Woman immediately became anxious.
"Dr. Qin, my son eats it every day, he wouldn't be addicted, would he?"
"That scoundrel, how could he do such a heinous thing!"
Everyone knew that thing was hard to quit, so at this moment, others looked at Liu Jinhai with sympathy, feeling that Liu Jinhai's life was ruined.
Qin Jiang quickly said, "It's not that exaggerated. It's just unextracted poppy husks. Although they have a certain addictiveness, they're not as terrifying as you imagine."
"Besides, I have medicine here."
Qin Jiang took out ten Jinniu Detox Pills he had prepared earlier and placed them in Liu Jinhai's hand.
"Take one pill every day, no more, no less. You'll be fine after ten days."
Liu Jinhai, who received the detox pills, eagerly swallowed one.
Sure enough!
After this Jinniu Detox Pill went down, Liu Jinhai felt that his whole body was no longer itchy, and he felt energized.
"This medicine really works!"
Hearing Liu Jinhai say this, Liu Old Woman quickly clasped her hands together and apologized to Qin Jiang.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Qin, I actually doubted you just now. It's my old eyes that are failing and useless. Dr. Qin, please don't take it to heart."
"Dr. Qin, I'm kneeling to you."
Liu Old Woman said, about to kneel, but Qin Jiang quickly stepped forward to help her up.
"Old lady, you mustn't do this. Healing and saving people is my duty. I cannot accept your kneeling."
Netizens in the live stream were also deeply moved when they saw this scene.
"This Old lady looks like she's almost seventy, doesn't she? At such an old age, she's still worried about her son, it's so touching."
"No matter what your identity is in front of others, in front of your parents, you will always just be a child."
"Actually, I can understand the Old lady's feelings. After all, if her son really got addicted to that thing, his life would probably be ruined. Qin Jiang's act is a life-saving grace, so kneeling is very normal."
"Dr. Qin is indeed a good person. Besides being outspoken, he has no other flaws."
Liu Yan looked at the data in the live stream and was immediately surprised.
In just a short while, the live stream's popularity exploded again, directly soaring to 450,000 online viewers!
Popularity and followers are not the same.
Many big Streamer with millions of followers don't have such an exaggerated number of online viewers as Qin Jiang.
Liu Yan couldn't help but secretly glance at Qin Jiang.
Could it be that Qin Jiang has some unique charm, which caused everyone to become interested in Chinese medicine?
Just as Qin Jiang sent the Liu family away, a woman's panicked voice came from the medical hall's entrance.
"Second Brother, is it here?"
"Yes, it's here. I heard that Dr. Qin at this medical hall is very skilled. He will definitely be able to cure Xiao Ao's illness."
Qin Jiang knew immediately that a patient had arrived.
However, when he clearly saw the group of people walking in from outside, Qin Jiang was startled.
Two men and one woman were carrying a child and walking in from outside the medical hall.
The child was wearing an official's uniform, an official's hat, and a yellow talisman was pasted on his forehead.
Qin Jiang was a bit confused.
What is this, Xiangxi Corpse Driving?
