Chapter 16 The Chef's Conscience

"Do you think that if you are smart enough, no one will be able to find out that you used xt21 chemical synthetic agent in watercress fish?"

Cheng Xin sneered, and the perpetrator's reckless attitude, as if he didn't care, angered him.

The middle-aged chef is now completely calm. Judging from the information he knows, basically no one can prove that the chemical compound xt21 is present in the watercress he cooked.

Relevant law enforcement officers rushed to the scene soon after receiving Cheng Xin's alarm.

"Comrade law enforcement, I have sufficient evidence to show that this watercress fish has added a shimmering toxic substance. The chef of this hotel has been involved in a criminal offense."

The law enforcement comrades were unmoved by Cheng Xin's words, and looked back and forth between Cheng Xin and the chef involved.In their many years of law enforcement career, they have witnessed multiple reversals of events.Whether there is any suspected crime depends on the evidence.

"This chef, you'd better tell me clearly whether you have added toxic additives to your meals. Confession can reduce your crime, otherwise it will be a felony if found out, and your future life will be completely ruined. You should think about it clearly."

The chef of Fengyun Hotel said calmly:

"Mr. Law Enforcement, we are a charming five-star hotel here, famous for its service quality. How could I do such a self-destructive thing?"

The chef's face is now calm.He has been working in Fengyun Hotel for three years. It is not that no one has suspected that there is something wrong with the dishes he cooked, but those diners are not professionals, and there is no evidence that he added things to the food.

So did the previous incidents.

Moreover, the xt21 additive is only circulated in the small circle of senior chefs.As far as he knows, the xt21 additive cannot be detected by conventional means when it is added to dishes.

He was confident and condescending, looking at Cheng Xin with disdain to see what useful evidence he could come up with.

He didn't believe that this young man with a young face could detect the xt21 additive in the small circle of chefs.

Not many people know about this kind of additive, and he successfully applied for the chef of Fengyun Hotel by relying on xt21 chemical additive.

Seeing the chef with no guilt and an innocent expression in front of him, Cheng Xin felt a sense of sadness at a loss.

This kind of scum has unexpectedly appeared in the relatively simple profession of a chef who relies on his ability to make a living.

"Are you so confident? People have to pay attention to a conscience in everything they do, let alone a chef profession that is related to food safety. If you meet me today, your life will be over."

"Don't talk nonsense, I can sue you for slander, and the law enforcement officers are watching. If you don't have any evidence today and slander and frame me at will, not only the enforcement officers will arrest you, but Fengyun Hotel will also include you in this Five-star blacklist in the area."

He Anyang and Chen Wen looked at Cheng Xin worriedly. They believed that the boss had a target, but they were afraid that their boss would be framed if he could not produce evidence.When they ate watercress fish, they just thought it was tender and delicious, but they didn't expect that there were harmful additives in it.

"Okay, I understand what you mean. The gentleman who reported the call, do you have any evidence to prove that harmful additives have been added to the dish? If there is no evidence, you may have to go with us."

The expressions of the executive officers are very serious. In their eyes, evidence is the ironclad evidence to judge whether a dispute is right or wrong.

Cheng Xin said confidently:
"Of course, executive gentlemen, I have evidence."

Cheng Xin asked the waiter to take a candle from the front desk, and then he dripped oil from the burning candle into the watercress fish.

In an instant, the candle oil and the xt21 in the watercress fish had a strong chemical reaction, and the part of the watercress fish that was dripped with candle oil turned dark purple.

Turning on the phone, Cheng Xin boarded the world-renowned academic forum "Nature and Science", entered the chemical classification, entered the serial number 2283727, and a paper "On the Hazards and Detection Methods of xt21" appeared on the phone.

The law enforcement officers saw that the part of the watercress fish where the candle dripped turned dark purple, and understood that the matter was not simple.

When they saw the essay on Cheng Xin's phone, the law enforcement officers understood it.

This diner must be right.

The papers published on the "Nature and Science" forum are high-quality products, and it is impossible to fake them.Anyone who dares to write fake articles on such a top academic forum in the world will inevitably be ruined if they are picked out.

This evidence is very reliable, and they do not understand the specific papers and details.But after seeing Cheng Xin's operation, the law enforcement officers believed in this diner even more.

For specific details and verification links, their law enforcement officers will invite professional chemical analysts to analyze.

Now, it's time to arrest the crooks!
"Come with us!"

The executive looked serious and looked at the chef of Fengyun Hotel with disgust.

The chef was stupid. He didn't know that xt21 had this kind of detection method, as well as professional academic articles for research and detection.

He is a cook, and he knows so much there, and he broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

The unexposed chef career in the previous three years gave him blind self-confidence.

well!If I had known earlier, I should have read more books, and suffered from being uneducated!
His expression changed instantly.

"Comrade law enforcement, I am innocent! You have to trust me!"

"Let's go!"

Law enforcement soon took the chef away.

"Boss, it's amazing. I only know that the watercress fish made in this hotel is delicious, but I didn't expect that there are harmful additives in it. I really didn't expect it."

He Anyang said in admiration.The boss not only cooks well, but also knows a lot.

If it hadn't been for Cheng Xin to discover that there was something wrong with the watercress fish, more diners would come to this hotel to eat in the future, and the food safety of more people would be threatened.

He admired his boss's erudition so much that he even posted academic papers.

It seems that these days, I still need to read more books.

He Anyang wondered whether he should go for a higher diploma?

Chen Wen didn't expect such a big danger to be hidden behind a simple meal.

She sincerely admires her boss, who is courageous and resourceful.

In fact, Cheng Xin didn't study after graduating from junior high school, and he didn't understand anything about chemical elements.

The reason why he knew the additive xt21 was from his father, Master Cheng's chef's notes.

Master Cheng discussed the function and history of the additive xt21 in detail in his notes, and also posted relevant papers.

Cheng Xin was deeply impressed by this additive. It is colorless and odorless, and cannot be found soluble in water by conventional means.

The only way to detect it is if the candle drips oil into the food, and the food with this additive will turn dark purple when it comes into contact with the hot oil of the candle.

Saying goodbye to the two, Cheng Xin walked home alone, and couldn't help but torture himself:
"If one day my cooking skills don't improve, will I add this slightly toxic additive to food to satisfy diners?"

This is a question of a chef's moral integrity, and Cheng Xin thought about it for a long time.

Thinking of his father's last wish, to open a great and respected restaurant, Cheng Xin felt ashamed of his entanglement.

Cheng Xin posted a Weixin circle of friends to express his feelings:

"The chef's conscience is also related to the quality of the dishes..."

Cao Wanjin's cell phone dinged immediately, and she felt that Cheng Xin was right.

When I met him, he was such an ethical cook!
