Chapter 1346: The Man Who Cried Wolf (2)
Helpless, the doctor smiled bitterly and said, “I’ve been a doctor for so many years. I can tell if a patient is well or not. If you don’t trust me, you can seek a second opinion elsewhere.”
Old Hu shouted, “You are relying on a machine, and the machine isn’t reliable. How can I not know if I’m in pain? I’m a grown man. If it doesn’t hurt, what am I doing here? Wouldn’t it be better sleeping at home?”
Old Hu’s wife also said, “That’s right, Doctor. You must have misdiagnosed.”
Hu Xiaoye added, “Doctor, why don’t you check again?”
The policeman thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t you redo the checkup?”
The doctor said helplessly, “Alright, if you want another diagnosis, we can. It’s your money anyway.”
Then, the doctor brought Old Hu along to continue with the checkup. After the checkup, the doctor got a few colleagues to provide their take on him.
The police officers supervised by the side and saw everything clearly. The three reports were identical!
The doctor said, “Take a look yourself. This is a report about the bones, and this is for the muscles. Every inch of his body has been scanned, and there are no injuries at all! Even calling them superficial wounds is a little exaggerated. I was puzzled. This kind of injury on a one-month-old child might lead to some crying, but they will stop very quickly. He’s a grown man; how can he be crying so loudly?”
The policeman looked at Old Hu and said to the doctor, “You can’t treat such illness. It’s something we can treat…”
The doctor was stunned. “What illness?”
The policeman said, “Psychology.”
The doctor suddenly came to a realization. “Pretending to be injured to cheat some compensation?”
The policeman nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll take the report.”
The doctor said, “Alright.”
The police left…
Seeing the police leave and the doctor coming out, Hu Xiaoye and her mother immediately asked, “Doctor, how is it?”
The doctor said, “As a quack, I can’t tell what illness he is suffering from. Let’s do this. If you trust me, stay here. If you don’t trust me, then transfer to another hospital.”
With that, the doctor left as well.
The mother and daughter exchanged looks and quickly ran back to the ward, and explained the matter to Old Hu.
When Old Hu saw that there was no one around, he no longer showed signs of pain. He sat cross-legged on the bed and mumbled, “Color me surprised if they can diagnose anything…”
“You’re alright?” Old Hu’s wife asked in surprise.
Old Hu said, “It’s nothing. Even if I’m fine. I have to implicate that kid, Yu Nian! So, I have to pretend to be injured. Cooperate with me. This time, I’m going to make that kid, Yu Nian, pay until he cries! And that damn novel contract, I have to get him to transfer it to us!”
“Will this work?” Old Hu’s wife was a little hesitant.
Hu Xiaoye also said, “Dad, it’s a society where the rule of law prevails. Can we do this?”
Old Hu sneered and said, “What bullsh*t rule of law society. I cheated him of his betrothal money and house. What can he do?”
Hu Xiaoye said, “You just don’t like him.”
Old Hu said, “Like I’ve said, who knows what he’s writing. He’s always creating something on the Internet that cannot be seen or touched. Who knows if he’s writing a pornographic novel? Furthermore, there’s not a day where such a person can live. This kind of person has numbered good days. What kind of good days can you have by following him? A fool like him is a fat sheep. It’s fine slaughtering him. Later on, Dad will introduce you to a civil servant and a few white-collar workers working at proper companies. Although it’s only a monthly salary of about 3,000 yuan, they have insurance! They can even get a loan when buying houses…”
“Old Hu, why do I think that you did your math wrong? That kid earns more than 30,000 per month. A month’s work is a year’s income of a civil servant,” said Old Hu’s wife.
Old Hu said, “What do you know? More may come fast, but it also gets spent quickly. It holds for the reverse. One is a small stream that flows far. The other is just one-off… Let me tell you, the 3000-yuan civil servant is more practical than his 30,000 yuan! Besides, why are we even talking about him? Just him delivering that punch makes him bad!”
“Holy sh*t, this old fellow is too shameless! He was the one who was the first to do such unscrupulous acts. Now, he’s blaming it on the character of others. Does he really think that he’s the only one in the world that can act as a hooligan? He’s monopolized being a hooligan, and requires others to pay him patent fees if people do the same?” Salted Fish cursed.
Fangzheng silently switched off the recording function on his cell phone. He had recorded everything that needed to be recorded. All that was left was family drama that didn’t need to be heard.
“Master, what do we do now?” Salted Fish asked.
Fangzheng said, “I got you to come down the mountain to help not to use your divine powers to beat someone up. In fact, Patron Yu could have resolved this matter on his own. He just didn’t think about how he could resolve it. In their words, he’s a geek. Their occupation destines them to only write stories in their head, resting, eating with friends, and bragging.
“Because there’s no conflict of interest, he doesn’t need to be wary of his author friends. Their hearts are open to everyone, and their hearts are very pure. This is a good thing, but also a bad thing.
“Since ancient times, one has to refrain from hurting others, yet guard against those trying to hurt them.
“A completely open sheep’s pen will attract wolves sooner or later. Moreover, this sheep is fat and looks like a pushover.
“But everyone has forgotten that sheep have horns.
“In the food chain, wolves eat sheep, but wolves don’t just randomly eat sheep. They only choose the old, weak, sick, and crippled. They wouldn’t easily provoke the truly powerful rams. It isn’t rare for wolves to die because of a ram’s horn.
“In today’s society, everyone has the ability to protect themselves.
“Some have the weapons bestowed by the law, while others are given by society.
“When legal weapons are not mature enough, they can use societal weapons.”
Salted Fish said, “I understand. Find a gangster to settle this matter!”
Fangzheng raised his hand and slapped him. “Nonsense!”
Salted Fish asked, “Then what does Master mean?”
“What I mean is that I want to tell a story to this patron.”
“Tell a story? What story?” Red Boy was puzzled as well. Instead of punishing such a despicable fellow, they were going to tell him a story?
Fangzheng said, “It’s The Boy Who Cried Wolf.”
With that said, Fangzheng gave a sinister laugh and walked over. Not long after, Old Hu, who was already screaming, suddenly shouted even louder. He was sweating profusely as he jumped around, beating his chest and stamping his feet…
When the doctors and nurses who passed by heard that, they shook their heads slightly and mumbled. “Why isn’t this person in acting? He’s definitely going to win a big prize!”
“It hurts… It really hurts!” shouted Old Hu.
Old Hu’s wife said, “Alright, no one is here. Stop acting.”
Old Hu covered his stomach and said, “It really hurts this time…”
Hu Xiaoye asked suspiciously, “Is it true? Dad, don’t scare me.”
