Chapter 1221 It’s fucking amazing!
As a public security officer, I am clear-headed and alert to similar situations.
So when Li Xiangnan was talking about the Zhajiang Noodle Restaurant just now, they vaguely felt that something was wrong and suspected that the noodles in the noodle restaurant were really poisoned as Li Xiangnan said!
And this kind of poison can make people extremely dependent!
They had suspected just now that what Li Xiangnan was referring to was opium!
But when Li Xiangnan got the report from the Department of Chemistry of Yenching University and said these two words in person, the public security comrades and Wang Defa present were still shocked!
opium!
This is the cancer of the old society!
After the establishment of the New Dragon Kingdom, faced with the rampant opium problem left over from the Old Dragon Kingdom, the government launched an anti-drug campaign with thundering means. In just three years, it basically eradicated opium, which had been a scourge for more than a hundred years, and created the world-renowned "drug-free country" miracle.
From 49 to the end of 1952, opium was banned in most parts of the country, and 2000 million drug addicts were freed from their addiction. After 1953, drug control was extended to minority areas, and by 1963, the country was "drug-free".
This is an important measure that our government has been taking over the past few decades for the health of the people.
But now, opium suddenly appeared!
This practice of using any means necessary to pursue profit is a complete disregard for the law and a violation of life. It is unforgivable and intolerable.
"Let me see!"
Seeing a rare solemnity on Li Xiangnan's face, Guo Qian walked over quickly and took a look at the report.
"2,4-nonadienal (27.8%), 2,4-decenal (13.16%)? Consultant Li, what are these?"
Guo Qian is the captain of the First Brigade of the Yanjing Municipal Bureau. Having been a public security officer for so many years, he has naturally come into contact with opium and has some understanding of its composition.
In the conventional system of cognition, opium is a synonym for poppy fruit, and the content of this thing is very clear. It contains alkaloids such as morphine (10%-15%), codeine (about 1%), and papaverine (about 1%).
But in this report, there appeared chemical components that he was not familiar with!
"This is the chemical composition of poppy seed oil!" Li Xiangnan said in a cold voice.
"Poppy seed oil?" Wei Jingfei's eyes widened slightly, and he asked in surprise: "They squeezed opium into oil?"
"That's right!" Li Xiangnan nodded slightly and recalled: "So, the couple who owned the fried sauce restaurant were very smart. If someone like me hadn't taken their soup for chemical analysis, no one would have discovered that they used poppy seed oil!"
"In the past, many noodle stalls and restaurants would mix opium into various sauces and marinades. If the police came to investigate, they could catch the restaurant owner on the spot by simply checking the restaurant's base ingredients! This is because the appearance of the opium poppy is very special, and the fruit is highly recognizable! Once they were caught, they would be caught red-handed, and they would be unable to escape!"
Guo Qian suddenly realized, "So this couple refined the oil from poppy seeds and put it into the pot for cooking noodles. No matter how many drops are dropped, there will be no residue to be found! So no one will suspect them!"
"Not bad!" Li Xiangnan nodded.
Wei Jingfei smacked his lips and asked curiously, "Advisor Li, how did you know that?"
“Because I ate the noodles there!”
"???"
Guo Qian and Wei Jingfei were stunned, and cold sweat broke out on their faces. "Are you using yourself as an experiment?"
Seeing the worry on their faces, Li Xiangnan laughed and waved his hand, "I've already induced vomiting! Don't worry! Tell me what I think!"
The police gathered around.
"Raw opium has a strong smell of ammonia or stale urine, similar to the sour smell of fermentation. Even if the shop owner puts it into the pot to cook it, it will release the bitter taste of alkaloids, causing the noodle soup to have a slight bitter taste!"
"Fuck, you even know this?" Wang Defa sucked his teeth.
Li Xiangnan rolled his eyes at him and continued, "After being cooked and fermented, cooked opium has a sweet smell, similar to the aroma of caramel or smoke! If the shop owner uses cooked opium, then the noodles will taste sweet! Some customers who are not used to it will immediately become suspicious!"
After hearing this, all the police officers were stunned by Li Xiangnan's rich basic knowledge.
"Hurry up and write it down!" Guo Qian even urged his subordinates to take out their notebooks to write it down, and reminded them: "Let's discuss it together after we go back. If there are any problems, let's focus on it! Let Consultant Li give us a lesson."
Seeing Li Xiangnan pause, Guo Qian chuckled and said apologetically: "Advisor Li, please continue!"
He nodded slightly, "When I ate noodles before, I noticed that there was no slight bitter taste dominated by ammonia, and there was no sweet aroma of caramel smoke, which means that the store owner would not use the original adulterated cooking method!"
"Your idea is awesome! There's something to it!" Wang Defa gave a thumbs up.
Li Xiangnan directly put a cigarette into his mouth and gagged him.
He looked at Guo Qian and knew that the other party was frowning as he digested this information.
"Is it possible that he used poppy shells? We have investigated similar cases before..."
Sure enough, Guo Qian immediately had a new idea.
"No! The smell of poppy shell is fragrant and slightly bitter, similar to the smell of herbs. After being boiled in water at high temperature, this thing may have a light bitter taste, similar to the smell of light tea, without any obvious irritating smell. When you eat noodles, you can taste the tea flavor. Most people's taste buds can distinguish it immediately!" Li Xiangnan immediately shook his head and denied it.
"Hiss!" Hearing this, Guo Qian took a deep breath, then nodded heavily and said, "I give in!"
He waved his hand and shouted, "Everyone, get in the car!"
Brush brush!
A group of people quickly ran out of the hospital wall.
"I'm going to go catch him first! We'll talk later!"
Guo Qian shouted and ran down the stairs, then hurried back and asked, "Advisor Li, where do you think he put the poppy seed oil? This thing will be the key to his conviction..."
Li Xiangnan smiled slightly, "Captain Guo, when you catch him, if he falls first, then it must be him!"
After he finished speaking, he reminded, "Captain Guo, these two people are able to understand all the characteristics of opium poppies so well. They must have decades of experience in poisoning. We must catch them!"
"Of course! I've learned a lot today!" Guo Qian nodded, ran off, and turned back to say, "Consultant Li, congratulations!"
"When you're done, I'll call you guys to have dinner together. Call Director Zhang!" Li Xiangnan waved his hand.
"it is good!"
I watched the two police teams drift in front of the hospital and speed towards Shuangyushu.
Wang Defa put the cigarette back into Li Xiangnan's mouth and asked, "Jiang San is in such a serious condition, can he be saved?"
"Finish smoking! Go take a look!" Li Xiangnan sighed.
Half an hour later.
Boom!
Suddenly, more than a dozen big men broke into the front and back doors of the Shuangyushu Lao Yanjing Noodle House at the same time and surrounded the noodle house in an instant.
"Don't move, police!"
A loud bang echoed throughout the noodle shop.
Boom!
As the diners were running for their lives, the kitchen boss kicked over the pot of noodle soup on the stove and reached out to grab a bottle of vinegar on the chopping board to smash it.
Snapped!
A gun was pressed firmly against the back of his head.
"If you dare to move, your head will explode. Do you believe it?"
After hearing the cold and silent voice, Guo Qian reached out and snatched the vinegar bottle that the chef was holding tightly in his arms, then put it in front of his nose and smelled it.
"This is fucking amazing! He knows all this! Take him away!"
