    Chapter 838 The Troublemaker


    On the other hand, Matthew couldn’t be bothered about the department director as he was observing the


    patient. At the same time, Crystal stood beside him and asked, “Have you found anything, Matthew?”


    Matthew nodded and answered, “Turn around and look away now.”


    “Why?” she asked.


    “Just do as I say,” he replied.


    When Crystal pouted and reluctantly did as she was told, Matthew produced three needles and used his


    palm to apply pressure on the patient’s chest. Feeling as if there was ayer of liquid beneath the


    patient’s skin, he didn’t desperately try to perform an acupuncture therapy on the patient. Instead,


    Matthew patiently continued to massage the man for the next three minutes until the patient’s shoulders


    twitched a little.


    Then, Matthew quickly inserted the three needles he had prepared earlier through the patient’s skin, only


    to see something bulging beneath it, as if it was trying to get out of his body from the inside. At the sight


    of this strange phenomenon, Matthew instantly applied more pressure on it with his hands and took out


    seven more needles to secure a bigger region around the abnormality. As soon as he did that, whatever


    was hiding beneath the patient’s skin seemingly ceased to struggle.


    After that, he produced a dagger and sliced the skin open, but no blood or pus trickled out of the wound,


    as if the skin was just an empty shell. Soon, a creature resembling an octopus was found somewhere


    beneath the skin as it was pinned by several needles that rendered it immobile. While holding the cold


    de in his hand, he proceeded to extract the creature from the patient’s body.


    Despite its miniscule size, the octopus had multiple long tentacles that probably measured up to one


    meter each. After the removal of the octopus, steam was blowing out of the patient’s wound like a


    punctured balloon. At the same time, the patient’s skin showed signs of recovery as the swelling slowly


    subsided, making it look like he was never under the weather before. Soon, his wound began to bleed as


    soon as there was no more steam wafting out of it.

    On the other hand, Matthew fixed his gaze on the dark blood and he stopped the bleeding when it turned


    bright red. Then, he ced the octopus in a jar and looked at Crystal. “Alright, you can turn around now.”


    When Crystal turned over and nced at the patient, she was instantly dumbfounded with what she saw


    before her eyes. “Oh my God, Matthew! Has he… recovered now? I can’t believe you cured him so


    soon.”


    “More or less.” He waved his hand and added, “He’ll still need more time to fully heal before he is up and


    about again. though. Anyway, please send for the doctor to bandage his wound. In the meantime, I’ll list


    down the prescribed ingredients for him to prepare the medicine that he’ll need to take thrice before we


    can all call it a day.”


    After that, she left to send for the doctor, only to realize the department director was no longer standing


    by the door. Soon, she found him talking with a few other people as she stood at the corner and listened


    closely.


    “Those two people said they were going to treat the patient and chased me away. I don’t know what’s


    going on, but I figured you all should know, which was why I called. After all, those two people were not


    doctors from our hospital, so if anything happens, we won’t be able to shoulder the responsibility,” the


    department directorined.


    The woman, who stood at the forefront, challenged the doctor with dissatisfaction. “How could you do


    that?! My husband has suffered enough, so how could you allow two strangers to do anything they want


    to him? If anything goes wrong, I-I’ll make sure you regret allowing this to happen!”


    Nheless, the department director coldly waved his hand and replied, “I’m in no position to interfere


    with this matter since the two of them have been sent here by the dean to attend to your husband. Thus,


    this ispletely out of my power. In fact, situations like this have happened before, in which patients,


    who suffered from certain abnormal diseases, were taken away for further studies. Therefore, you all


    might want to head over and have a look for yourselves.”


    She then questioned him. “What?! How dare they treat my husband as a guinea pig! If they every a


    finger on him, I-I will kill them all!”


    Soon, two other people, who were standing at the back, also expressed their anger. “If anything happens


    to Dad, I won’t go easy on them!”


    “Let’s go and check out what’s going on!”
