Chapter 105 Find out exactly who ordered this!
The scream from the man with the scratch marks instantly shattered the lively atmosphere in the store.
Before Su Chen could speak, the shop door was pushed open again.
"We have received reports from the public that your 'Human Fireworks' restaurant poses serious food hygiene risks, and we need to conduct an inspection!"
With a series of hurried footsteps, three men in dark blue uniforms with law enforcement badges hanging around their necks strode in.
The leader was a tall, thin man surnamed Zhang. He had a stern face, held a thick folder in his hand, and his eyes revealed a cold, businesslike indifference.
Before Chen Feng could speak, Section Chief Zhang walked straight to the table with the scratched man, glanced at the black flies, and then turned to look at Chen Feng seriously.
"Are you Chen Feng, the owner of this store?"
We are from the Municipal Food and Drug Administration.
We have received a report with a real name, saying that there is a problem with the products in your store.
The evidence is now conclusive; please cooperate with us immediately for a site closure and inspection.
With a wave of his hand, Section Chief Zhang signaled for two law enforcement officers behind him to rush into the kitchen, clearly intending to cause trouble.
"Stop! What right do you have to go in!"
Seeing this, Su Chen suddenly stepped aside and blocked the kitchen doorway.
His face turned red with anger. He pointed at the car that was still running at the door, then at the two thugs who had just started their outburst, and raised his voice several octaves.
"You guys are working together so well!"
These two just slammed their fists on the table, and you guys just pushed the door open and came in?
From the time a report is filed to the time your regulatory bureau takes action, has your efficiency really reached this level?
Section Chief Zhang's face darkened, and his tone became increasingly cold: "Comrade, please do not interfere with our normal law enforcement."
We received the emergency dispatch while conducting routine patrols in the vicinity.
The victim is right here, and the evidence is in the bowl. If you continue to obstruct us, we'll have to ask the public security authorities for assistance.
"Victim?"
"These two slobs, drooling with oil, call themselves victims?"
Su Chen pointed at the two pretentious men, her lungs practically bursting with rage.
"Ouch... I can't take it anymore, my stomach... it hurts so much."
Seeing that the regulatory officials were backing him up, the man with the scratches shouted even louder, and even slumped into his chair.
"What are you doing!"
Chen Feng's voice suddenly rang out.
He held Mengmeng tightly in his arms; she had already burrowed into his clothes in fright.
Xingruo's face was pale, and she was gripping Chen Feng's lower back tightly with both hands, her eyes filled with tears of fear.
Chen Feng stared coldly at Section Chief Zhang.
From the moment those two scoundrels walked in, he sensed a subtle but palpable malice.
This was clearly a well-planned scheme. Once these people got into the kitchen, they could slip in some contraband or throw something unclean into the water tank, and his shop would be completely ruined.
Chen Feng took out his phone with one hand and dialed a number.
"Section Chief Zhang, I have no objection to following procedures." Chen Feng's voice was cold.
"But if anyone tries to use the guise of law enforcement to engage in such low-level tactics, I advise you to think twice."
"Are you threatening law enforcement officers?" Section Chief Zhang's eyebrows furrowed, and he reached out to push Su Chen, trying to force the door open.
"Let's see who dares to make a move."
Lu Feng, who had been sitting silently by the window, put down his teacup.
He stood up and looked straight at Section Chief Zhang.
Section Chief Zhang was about to unleash his power when he heard this, and instinctively turned his head.
When he saw Lu Feng's face clearly, he froze, and the cold, businesslike expression on his face instantly crumbled.
"Mr. Lu... Mr. Lu?" Section Chief Zhang leaned forward slightly.
A section chief of his rank, while holding considerable influence over the livelihoods of many businesses in this city,
But in front of a top tycoon like Lu Feng, who can sit at the same table with city leaders, she was like a newborn chick.
"Section Chief Zhang, what a show of power you've got." Lu Feng sneered, grabbed Xiao Xue's hand, and walked among the group.
"Mr. Lu, what are you doing here... This place is rather simple, I'm afraid it might offend you."
We received a report with a real name, saying there were hygiene problems here, so we...
At this moment, a fine layer of cold sweat appeared on Section Chief Zhang's forehead, and he kept wiping it with the back of his hand as he spoke.
"A real-name report?" Lu Feng's eyes were full of disdain.
"Section Chief Zhang, is this whistleblower a deliberate act? You've been in this position for so long, surely you can tell the difference?"
"President Lu, the evidence is right here in the bowl, we still have to follow the procedures..." Section Chief Zhang said with a dry laugh, his tone somewhat pleading.
"The program can run, but it can't run erratically." Lu Feng turned to look at Chen Feng, his tone much gentler.
"Boss Chen, since Section Chief Zhang wants an explanation, as the shop owner, why don't you give them one? I believe they will understand the situation, hehe."
Chen Feng patted Mengmeng on the back to reassure her, then slowly took a step forward.
His eyes swept over the fly and the man with the scratches, finally settling on Section Chief Zhang's face.
"Section Chief Zhang, since you want to investigate, then look carefully."
Chen Feng held up two fingers and pointed at the fly.
"First, this pot of braised pork was started at seven o'clock this morning. The first step was to 'grill the skin'."
Chen Feng looked at Su Chen, who immediately understood, opened the notebook where he had just taken notes, and read aloud:
"At 7:30 a.m., the chef used a high-temperature torch to grill the pork belly skin to remove any remaining hair follicles and odors. The temperature was about 1,500 degrees Celsius."
Chen Feng continued, "Let alone a fly, even a steel needle would deform at that temperature."
"Section Chief Zhang, look, aren't this fly's wings spread out perfectly?"
Section Chief Zhang took a closer look, and his face stiffened.
"Secondly," Chen Feng's voice remained steady.
"This meat was simmered in the pot for over an hour."
During this process, reduce the sauce over high heat, then simmer over low heat until the sauce in the pot becomes thick and sticky.
Chen Feng pointed to the fly whose wings were still intact.
"You also work in food safety."
You should know what happens when a tiny fly is stewed in a pot for more than an hour.
It's long since turned to mush!
Most importantly, I added a lot of rock sugar and dark soy sauce to my braised pork. If it had been added from the beginning, it should be completely coated in sauce by now.
Chen Feng snorted coldly, his eyes suddenly turning sharp.
"But look at this fly."
Chen Feng reached out, picked up the spoon on the table, lifted the fly, and handed it to Section Chief Zhang right under his nose.
"It was clean, except for a few specks of oil, not even a trace of caramel color."
What does this mean? It means that this fly was put on the plate after my meat was cooked.
"You...you're talking nonsense! You're just shirking responsibility!" The girl with the pointed chin tried to argue, but her voice betrayed her guilt, and she shrank back.
"Whether I'm lying or not, Section Chief Zhang can take it back for testing and we'll know." Chen Feng looked at Section Chief Zhang, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
"Let's see if there's any sauce inside this fly's belly!"
Chen Feng took a step forward, and the oppressive aura emanating from him instantly erupted.
"Or is it that Section Chief Zhang still intends to point at this fly that just landed and insist that it's our family's 'secret seasoning' that's been stewing for three hours?"
Aren't you afraid that if this result is reported, your position as section chief will be as fragile as a fly, melting away at the slightest heat?
Section Chief Zhang's face had turned from deathly pale to a deep liver color.
He glanced at Lu Feng, who was expressionless and had even taken out his phone to make a call.
He's not stupid; even a layman like him could see through the fake fly at a glance.
If Lu Feng weren't here today, he could have simply closed the shop and gone back to deal with things slowly.
But now, Lu Feng is right here watching. If he dares to force the case, he'll be packing his bags and leaving tomorrow.
"You bastards!" Section Chief Zhang whirled around, slammed his hand on the table, and unleashed his fury on the two thugs.
"You two! How dare you openly frame someone in front of law enforcement officers! You're asking for trouble!"
"Section Chief Zhang, no... that's not it, this fly really is..."
The man with the scratches trembled in fright, but before he could finish speaking, he was silenced by a sinister glare from Section Chief Zhang.
"Still dare to talk back! Take them all away! Take them all back and find out exactly who ordered this!"
