The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 131 - 131 130

131: 130 131: 130 “Hey!

Hey!

They’re coming out!

They’re coming out!” Someone in the back of the crowd must have seen the hospital door open, then shouted this sentence.

“Look at that, the doctors from the county really are different.

What’s that thing he’s carrying?

Looks professional, never seen it before!”

“I heard it’s meant for assessing personal injuries!

Don’t you know?

Liu Hun from Wanbao Village crippled the new deputy chief of police, Vice Chief Zhang!

That bastard was covering for his uncle who peeped at women changing clothes!

Such a shameless person deserves to be beaten to death!”

“Looking at those doctors’ faces, all gloomy as if they are heading to a funeral, trouble is definitely brewing!

Liu Hun has offended some big shots now.

Just look at those slick folks and the stern-faced police.

Liu Hun is like a rat in a trap, there’s no way he can escape now!

Such a shame for a character like him!”

“…”

Normally, setting up a police cordon would have been standard procedure for capturing a suspect, but this time, Chief Chai felt that he had two big fish caught right in his own net, within easy reach.

So why not take this opportunity to assert his authority!

Hearing the surrounding chatter and seeing the doctors emerging, all with dark expressions, Chen Qiuya was so nervous her underwear was already wet.

Had she not clenched her legs tightly, she might have peed herself right then.

Meanwhile, Zhao Mingjie’s eyes glinted with renewed determination; she was resolved to fight these people to the end.

Section Chief Zhang, an old hand at the office, saw that the scene was set, quickly raised his voice to Chief Chai, “Chief Chai!

Wise and valiant, serving the nation and the people!

Today, you have rid Taiping Town of a major plague!

Your deeds are there for heaven and earth to witness!

Chief Chai, please leave some words of advice for the people of Taiping Town, to keep in our hearts!

Let us remember your contributions!”

The ancient saying goes: establish a heart for the universe, a life for the people, continue the learning for the saints, and bring peace for all ages.

At this moment, Chai Jin truly felt like he was standing on top of the mountain, a statue gleaming through the ages.

Raising his hand, he pompously began, “Today!

On behalf of our county’s police bureau, representing our Taiping Town station, and on behalf of all law enforcement officers in our police system!

We resolutely follow the law to punish the criminal Liu Hun who assaulted a police officer!

At the same time, we express our heartfelt wishes and thanks to Deputy Chief Zhang, who was disabled in the line of duty.

Now, let the medical examiners announce the extent of Deputy Chief Zhang’s injuries, incurred in the line of duty.”

“Make it more somber!

More somber!

Hey, you!

Stop smiling over there!

Be serious!” Director Zhang scolded like a dog guarding a field, his face so convincing you’d think he’d lost his own parents, not just a nephew.

The leading doctor from the medical examiner’s office approached Director Chai and subtly coughed to hint something, but just as he was about to whisper to Director Chai, Director Zhang next to him burst out shouting, “Doctor Huang!

This isn’t just for Director Chai!

You represent the justice of the law!

Speak up!

Don’t quietly report out of sympathy for some criminals!

Make sure your voice is heard!

I think, that’s what Director Chai means as well.”

“Cough!

We enforce the law openly and honestly for the people!

No shady operations or under-the-table dealings!

Just like Director Zhang said, the justice of the law must be revealed under broad daylight, exposing all evils to the sunlight!

Doctor Huang, speak loudly!

Everyone must hear it,” Director Chai said while tilting his head back, his small eyes nearly reaching for the skies, ready to hear Doctor Huang’s verdict and then majestically order the arrest.

This scene was too perfect!

As soon as Director Chai finished, everyone around quieted down, waiting for Doctor Huang to speak, each one sighing internally that Wanbao Village had finally found a capable person, only to get arrested.

It was as agonizing as ancient death row inmates waiting for the execution hour.

“Since Director Chai wants me to speak up, then I will!

According to our medical expert team’s examination, Deputy Director Zhang is completely healthy, with no injuries!

There’s absolutely no evidence of being beaten into disability!

It’s just a muscle cramp caused by a lack of calcium.

I have said everything I needed to say!” Doctor Huang glared at Director Chai, and after these words, he and his team got in the car and left.

In his heart, he cursed Director Chai and Director Zhang who, having grown dumb from office, were only thinking about gaining personal accomplishments — now tossing themselves into a pit.

“Ding!” A pin dropped to the ground making a sound, causing a mischievous child to burst out laughing, “Hey!

Our teacher was right!

You can hear a pin drop!

Why have you all gone silent?”

This outburst rattled Director Zhang who, as if resurrected, grabbed Director Chai and yelled, “No, no, no!

This isn’t right!

Director Chai, there’s definitely something wrong!

I saw my nephew.

He was mangled, as flat and motionless as a pancake!

There’s a problem!

Definitely a problem!

The doctors must have been bribed!

Surely…,” he barked like a mad dog, pointing at Zhao Mingjie, “It must be this woman!

Yes, her!

She bribed the doctors!”

If Director Chai could have peeled off his face and shoved it in his pocket, he surely would have!

Listening to Director Zhang’s incessant babbling was like getting slapped repeatedly in the face, painfully stinging.

He internally wished he could flay Director Zhang and chew him up.

“Director Chai!

Let’s go inside together!

My nephew really was crippled!

Let everyone go inside, let the people around follow us!

We need to see for ourselves and not be deceived by the doctors bribed by Zhao Mingjie!” Director Zhang hysterically pulled on Director Chai’s hand, shouting.

He never imagined Zhao Mingjie could have actually bribed the medical examiners, setting them up right here.

The tailor, though lecherous, wasn’t foolish at heart.

Seeing Director Chai’s face as dark as if dredged from a pile of coal, he knew trouble was brewing.

Understanding that Director Chai was their backbone, he hurriedly jumped out saying, “Director Chai!

Look at me!

Look at me like this!

I was beaten by that bastard Liu Hun, and my nephew too, right before my eyes.

If I’m lying to you, then I’m a bastard!

My whole family are bastards!”

“Right, right, right!

Let’s all go in and see for ourselves, and if it’s not true, then I’m a green turtle!” Chief Zhang swore with determination.

“What…what is going on here?

Did you really bribe the doctor?” Chen Qiuya crept up to Zhao Mingjie and whispered, even though she had personally received Deputy Chief Zhang, she knew him well enough to know it was impossible for him to recover so quickly.

“Nonsense!

How could I do something like that?

Even if I did bribe someone, it wouldn’t matter—they’d find out as soon as they went in!

You saw it yourself, how badly that man was beaten up,” Zhao Mingjie said quietly to Chen Qiuya, her own mind filled with bafflement.

The two women, both realizing neither was responsible, simultaneously turned their gazes toward Liu Hun…

Liu Hun’s face was as blank as a glass of plain boiled water!

“He’s the one involved, why does he seem completely unfazed?

Is his mental fortitude really that strong?” Zhao Mingjie blurted out, unable to stop herself from recalling an old saying, “Mount Tai collapses before him, yet his face remains unchanged.”

“He must have facial paralysis; he probably needs a couple of injections!” Chen Qiuya also muttered, unable to think of any other explanation.

Director Chai gave Chief Zhang and the tailor a sideways glance.

He had already declared his intentions, having fully played his part as a civil servant, only to be metaphorically slapped in the face.

At his wit’s end, he coldly said, “Fine!

Let’s go in and check Deputy Chief Zhang’s condition ourselves.

We still have to trust the judgment of the masses after all!”

Right after Director Chai finished speaking, Liu Hun suddenly whispered, “The show is about to start!”

“What did you say?” Zhao Mingjie and Chen Qiuya nearly said in unison to Liu Hun.

“Liu Hun!

I’m gonna kill you!

I’m gonna kill you!

Anyone who tries to stop me today, I’m gonna kill them too!” Just as the two women were talking, Deputy Chief Zhang, who was diagnosed by Doctor Huang as having full-body spasms, kicked open the door with a ferocity like a mad dog while clutching a scalpel and lunged at Liu Hun and the others.

Director Chai and everyone else were dumbstruck, especially those who had witnessed Deputy Chief Zhang being beaten and carried in – the scene was like ghosts coming back to life on the Ghost Festival!

“Smack!”

Everyone was stunned, but not Liu Hun.

Seeing Deputy Chief Zhang coming at him, he reached out, knocked the scalpel from his hand, then twisted his arm and pinned him to the ground.

“Wow!

Isn’t this the very person who everyone said was severely injured?

Why is he jumping around and waving a knife, ready to kill?

What kind of act is this?

Has anyone figured it out?”

“It seems the county police really know what they’re doing!

So this is legal justice, right?

Serving the people, huh?

Whose interests are they really serving?

All that nonsense they were spouting just now—I think there are just two words for it—bullshit!”

“So, they put on such a big show just to have this new deputy chief perform a murder scene here?

Weren’t they talking about being injured in the line of duty and police assaults?

It doesn’t look like it to me!”

“…”

Director Chai’s head felt as empty as if he had left it at home, completely unable to comprehend how he ended up being played like a fool by a subordinate.

He slowly turned his head and stared grimly at Chief Zhang, grinding his teeth as he spoke, “Zhang!

Jin!

Jin!

Chief Zhang!

Are you messing with me?

Is this fun?

I’ve already reported it to the superintendent!

He’s already arranged everything!

What should we do?

What should we do now?!” After finishing, he reached out and grabbed Chief Zhang’s collar, nearly lifting him off the ground.

“No…

it’s not…

it…

it…” Chief Zhang was bewildered, feeling like he should be asleep on his couch at home, wondering why this dream seemed so vivid.

“Smack!

Smack!” Chief Zhang slapped his own face twice—painful!
