Chapter 394 - Nice Things That Await (1/2)

Tan Jianbai and the four officers from the Public Health Bureau and the police department could only stare at Xiao Luo in shocked silence. Compared to only a moment ago, Xiao Luo had completely transformed into another person, wrapped in wrath and possessed with an evil streak. Wasn’t he a doctor who treated patients for free? Why did he suddenly turn into a merciless butcher?

Tan Jianbai was aware that all of this had only happened because his wife had offended him, but still, to find two diametrically contrasting temperaments in one person left everyone in shock.

One was of kindness, and the other of pure evil; literally, it was an unholy union of an angel and a demon!

Xiao Luo squatted down and glanced meaningfully at Mrs. Tan’s hands. “Not bad, you’ve taken care of your hands well. You still apply nail polish even at this age. This means that these hands are the part of your body that you are most proud of,” he said.

Mrs. Tan saw Xiao Luo staring at her hands, and a cold sweat broke out. She had always been proud of her beautiful hands, and she loathed if anything were to happen to them. Overcome with anxiety, she said, “What…what are you going to do? Don’t do anything foolish, otherwise… otherwise the police won’t let… won’t let you go…”

Her voice was trembling, and when she looked at Xiao Luo, he was every bit a devil in her eyes. She rued her decision to provoke such a ruthless person.

Xiao Luo didn’t bother to talk anymore. He opened his acupuncture kit, selected a range of the slender needles, and began sticking them into Mrs. Tan’s hands. In a short while, Mrs. Tan’s hands were covered in needles and appeared just like a porcupine.

When applied in regular practice, acupuncture wasn’t painful at all, but Xiao Luo used a different technique. Mrs. Tan could feel a heart-piercing and lung-tearing pain from her hands rushing up to her brain in every prick. It felt as if they were placed on top of a brazier and slow-broiled. The pain was unbearable, and she screamed right through the process, and after all the needles had been inserted, she was suddenly immobilized.

“Wah! Old Tan, save me! Hurry up and save me… sob, sob…”

She screamed for her husband, Tan Jianbai, but he couldn’t move at all, and only watched his wife tortured with untold grief.

The four incapacitated officers turned pale in terror and regretted their decision to come here and look into the matter. They had received a report that someone was practicing medicine without a license. Under normal circumstances, they would have just turned a blind eye to it. But, in this case, the 40-thousand-dollar bribe from the informant was too tempting, and they succumbed, swiftly making their way to this location and using their authority for personal gain.

Had they known that the target was such a cruel person, forget 40 thousand dollars, even if it were 100 thousand or 200 thousand dollars, they still would not have been bold enough to do it. This man was not human at all, but a monster. Otherwise, how could he squash their toes with a single stomp, just like in the movie, “Kung Fu!”

…

…

After Xiao Luo removed all the needles, the severe pain remained in Mrs. Tan’s hands. But, at least she was able to move about now, and she began rolling around on the floor crying out in pain.

“Watch as your fingernails come off clean. Your hands will also age more quickly than the other parts of your body. Just imagine them drying up like a withered branch. I think it will be fascinating,” Xiao Luo said as he looked at her and explained matter-of-factly. This woman had provoked him relentlessly, and, as far as he was concerned, he felt that he was already merciful by giving her such a light punishment.

When he finished, he lifted his foot, stepped over her, and left the house.

Downstairs, the Porsche was still parked and its engine running with Li Yueze sitting inside the car.

He was looking forward to enjoying the sight of Xiao Luo being dragged out in cuffs. He was infuriated with Xiao Luo and kept telling himself that this man must be tired of living to be so bold to get close to the girl he desired.

Seeing Xiao Luo coming down alone, Lee Yueze was surprised. He opened the car door, walked out, and called out, “Hey, how come you didn’t get arrested by the Public Health Bureau?”

Xiao Luo didn’t respond to his words, only looked at him, and laughed.

“Gulp!”

Li Yueze unconsciously took a step back and felt the hair on his back stand on ends. He started to shiver slightly for Xiao Luo’s smile seemed ominous no matter how he looked at it.

Suddenly, Xiao Luo lunged at him, spreading his five fingers wide and grabbed him before he could even react. He felt himself being drawn into Xiao Luo, and he simply could not resist it, nor did he have any idea how he came to be standing so close to Xiao Luo. When he regained his senses, Xiao Luo’s fingers were already around his neck, and he was being chocked. It felt like he was gripped in a steel vice as he was lifted in the air with his toes barely touching the ground.

How did this guy do it?

Lee Yueze was shocked, unable to believe what he had just experienced, and the situation he was now in.

“Answer whatever I ask. If you dare to lie, I will kill you immediately,” Xiao Luo said.

Xiao Luo didn’t need to make a guess or ponder, for he already knew that the person who reported him for illegally practicing medicine was, without a doubt, Lee Yueze. He would feel no sympathy for killing off such a despicable person.

Lee Yueze was in no position to argue and indeed attempt to lie. He was so terrified that half his soul left his body. His mouth kept opening and closing like a fish out of water and his head nodding incessantly like a hen pecking at rice. Xiao Luo’s ferocity made him feel that he was about to die at any moment.

“Are you really working as Luo Workshop’s store manager?” Xiao Luo asked.
