As Matthew was about to check up on Ambrose, Mason stood directly in front of him, blocking his way.
"There is no need for your help.We have a lot of talented people in Woodside, so we don't need to
bother you for this trivial matter.Mr.Larson, why don't you continue telling me about what happened just
now?" Matthew frowned.
"Mason, what are you doing?" Mason said coldly, "I have no other intentions.I just wanted to inquire
about something.Since everyone drank from the same pot of tea just now, how is it that only my father
was poisoned, but you are fine?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room looked at Matthew.
Matthew's expression turned cold.
"Mason, are you suspecting that I did it?" Mason sneered.
"I just hope you can give me an answer, Mr.Larson. But why are you acting so nervous? Are you by
any chance feeling guilty?"
Matthew said indignantly, "Why should I feel guilty? What else is there to ask about this? Yes, we drank
from the same pot of tea, but not from the same cup.The poison could have been placed in the cup."
Mason nodded.
"What you said is quite plausible.However, Mr.Larson, can you explain another thing to me?"
As he spoke, Mason looked at the people around him and continued loudly, "In fact, I have heard of this
in Woodside for a long time, and I know that you are a divine doctor in Eastcliff City.Even Leonard the
Acupuncturist was willing to bow down to you! And with your medical skills, if someone wants to poison
you directly, that's simply impossible! So, Mr.Larson, why is it that when my father got poisoned in front
of you, you didn't try to stop it at all?"
As soon as these words were heard, everyone around them was shocked, and their expressions
changed.
The eyes of these people looking at Matthew were also immediately filled with hostility.
Some of them had even slowly moved toward Matthew.
Obviously, these people now regarded Matthew as the perpetrator.
Immediately, a bright light flashed in Matthew's eyes.
Mason's words were simply vicious.
In this way, everyone would definitely doubt him, and they would think that he poisoned the tea!
Matthew said, "Even if I am a divine doctor, it is still impossible for me to understand all the poisons in
this world.Besides, Mr.Ambrose and I were sitting so far apart that even if there was something unusual
in his cup, I wouldn't have noticed in time!"
Mason sneered.
"Was it truly impossible to find out, or were you just pretending not to know?"
Matthew said solemnly, "Mason, what do you mean by that? You suspect me of poisoning him?"
Mason said coldly, "You should be well aware of what you did, Mr.Larson.I don't want to engage in this
nonsense with you either.Until this matter is investigated clearly, I hope that you will cooperate with
Woodside's investigation."
Matthew said, "No problem at all.I can cooperate with you!"
Hearing Matthew's response, Mason nodded.
"Very well! Someone, shackle Mr.Larson and imprison him in the dungeon!"
Matthew's expression turned cold.
"What do you mean?"
Hearing that, Mason replied, "Until this matter is thoroughly investigated, you are a suspect.And since
you are a suspect, we must lock you up.Otherwise, should you run away, how would we investigate this
matter?"
Matthew was annoyed.
"I don't see why I should be shackled for this."
Mason looked at him coldly.
"Mr.Larson, if you didn't do it, then there's no need for you to worry.We at Woodside will never let any
criminals go, and we will never wrong an innocent person! Everyone, am I right?"
Everyone around them replied in agreement, and they all stared at Matthew.
Obviously, if Matthew continued to refuse to cooperate, everyone would think that it was him who
committed the poisoning.
And if that were the case, then they would definitely fight Matthew with all their might.
Thinking that, Matthew nodded slowly.
"Okay, then I will cooperate with you."
Saying that, Matthew stretched out his hands.
