Apocalypse Foodie System: Watch Her Cook!-Chapter 90 - 85: Someone’s Courting Death Again!

The Qinghe Third Hospital issued a statement to refute the rumors, declaring that their medical standards were completely fine, and that the injured party from the car accident had already received proper treatment and was recovering well. However, regarding the netizens’ strong calls for a re-examination of the injuries, the hospital deliberately avoided the issue, as if they knew nothing.

This behavior from the hospital left many netizens quite dissatisfied. These people are not fools; upon realizing the hospital was intentionally evading the issue, they smelled something fishy! But no matter how netizens speculated and commented, the Qinghe Third Hospital simply didn’t respond, leaving the netizens fuming but helpless.

If things continue as they are, it won’t be long before the heat around this issue will cool down. Then, this group of agitated netizens will soon be distracted by other matters, completely forgetting about this incident.

The world changes unpredictably, and the internet even more so; bombarded by various news daily, everything is constantly stirring up. If you are not careful, you’ll fall into silence, never to emerge again. Recently, it’s not that there weren’t others trying to stir things up, but unfortunately, the previous "car accident incident" and the interview with Sun Yao’s family quickly became a hot topic under some people’s orchestration. Seeing that Tang Yiyi had no background, they desperately slandered her, not expecting that Tang Yiyi would leverage their slander instead!

Tang Yiyi knew that the hospital issue had almost run its course because she hadn’t yet released any evidence, so although there was much speculation online, it remained just that. Once these speculations cannot be confirmed, those agitated netizens will soon lose interest.

She realized it was time to drop some major information.

Thinking about this, she decided to discuss it with Lawyer Zhang to see which piece of information would be best to release. However, just as she was about to contact Lawyer Zhang, he reached out to her first!

"Miss Tang, there’s something I need to tell you," Lawyer Zhang said. "Someone just sent me an anonymous private message, claiming to have a video that can prove the ’Tang Family’s’ innocence. But they have a condition; they want one million Credit Points."

Tang Yiyi was initially surprised, but hearing the end, she couldn’t help but laugh sarcastically: "One million Credit Points? This person sure knows how to ask for a lot! Lawyer Zhang, you didn’t agree to this, did you?"

Lawyer Zhang also found the demand excessive and couldn’t help but chuckle: "Of course not, you are my employer. I can’t make such decisions on your behalf without consulting you. However, I tried to contact him, and it seems he indeed has something, but his attitude is very firm. He said that if he doesn’t get one million Credit Points, he won’t hand it over. What do you plan to do?"

Tang Yiyi sneered: "Really? Unfortunately, I don’t have that kind of money. Let him contact me directly, and I’ll figure something out."

Upon hearing this, Lawyer Zhang immediately thought of the detailed evidence Tang Yiyi had once produced. He had previously speculated that Tang Yiyi must have someone behind her, at least a hacker friend with good skills. Now that Tang Yiyi confidently said she would figure something out, he knew that she intended to bring in her hacker friend.

Although he was a lawyer, he didn’t see anything wrong with Tang Yiyi’s approach. If the person indeed had the video, they would certainly know that Tang Yiyi and Sun Jian were wronged. But despite the online uproar, they hadn’t uploaded the video, and now they were trying to extort her! If their demand wasn’t so outrageous, he could’ve decided to buy the video for her, but this person was asking for too much!

It’s like they were crazy for money!

He didn’t oppose others earning money through their methods, but this was too much! Tang Yiyi and Sun Jian were set up and wrongfully accused, and it was pathetic. If Tang Yiyi didn’t have a powerful hacker friend and hadn’t collected evidence beneficial to her, wouldn’t she be at others’ mercy? Would she have to suffer this person’s extortion too?

Lawyer Zhang shook his head at the thought that many things in this world could be resolved peacefully and mutually beneficially, yet some people are insatiably greedy, digging their own graves!

He pretended to know nothing and only told Tang Yiyi to contact that person immediately. After speaking, he sent a private message to that person. That person seemed very eager for money and contacted Tang Yiyi straight away after hearing what he said.

Their attitude was quite unpleasant, seemingly not worried that Tang Yiyi would get angry — "So you’re Chef Tang? I won’t say much, one million Credit Points, I’ll send the stuff when I receive the money. And it has to be one million, not a penny less!"

Upon receiving the private message, Tang Yiyi found that the person still chose to remain anonymous. Looking at the content of the message, she smirked and replied — "Why should I believe you actually have evidence? Unless you prove it to me, there’s nothing to discuss!"

However, while sending the reply, she had already instructed the system: "System, trace this private message. I need to know the person’s identity information, and also, copy over the video they have!"

The system, after taking the Points, immediately got to work without a word. Although the person chose to remain anonymous, once the system acted, it quickly tracked down their personal terminal. As instructed by Tang Yiyi, it copied the person’s identity information and video, then quietly returned.

Tang Yiyi looked at the person’s information and found that they lived near the accident site, possibly capturing the video by chance. She immediately opened the video to check the recorded footage. Until now, she still didn’t know what exactly had happened in the car accident, only guessing that they had fallen into someone’s trap.

When she initially arrived at the scene, Sun Jian refused to speak. Later, when Sun Jian was temporarily detained at the police station and visitation was not allowed, she found it even more difficult to find out the truth.

So she had always wanted to know what exactly happened in that car accident!

However, after watching the video, Tang Yiyi was so furious that she slammed the coffee table hard! The video clearly recorded Sun Jian riding an electric bike into the alley, when a figure suddenly dashed out and got hit by the bike! Sun Jian quickly stopped the vehicle, but the wheels ran over the person’s leg, causing a fracture.

However, despite this, the injured party did not bleed at that time!

Afterward, Sun Jian got off the bike and approached the injured person, but before he got close, two people suddenly jumped out! It was the middle-aged couple! The middle-aged man punched Sun Jian in the face; this fool didn’t even try to dodge, getting hit firmly. Then the vehicle was overturned, and the food on it scattered everywhere! (To be continued.
