Chapter 938: Chapter 926: Do You Want to Live?


In the end, as Qiao Jing inserted the needle, Zhao Er suddenly tilted to the side, directly falling off the chair to the ground, then convulsed twice, and started foaming at the mouth.


Seeing this, Yang Xiaoxiao immediately rushed forward, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Oh no, something terrible has happened! He’s been killed!"


"A perfectly fine person was turned into a half-dead mess by this under-skilled Qiao Lao San after just a few needles!"


Yang Xiaoxiao shouted as she signaled to a few accomplices in the crowd.


Upon receiving the signal, they began to rile up the crowd and lead the rhythm.


"This woman’s medical skills are poor, yet she dares to practice medicine on others, completely disregarding human life!"


"He had an illness, but was fine otherwise, and ended up being killed by this woman with needles, it’s outrageous!"


"This woman killed a person, and everyone here is a witness. We cannot let her go unpunished; she must pay for her actions!"


"Murder must be punished by death! We should call the police to arrest her, let her go to jail, and let her repent for her evil deeds for the rest of her life!"


"..."


This sudden accident, along with the inflammatory words, shocked Qiao Lin.


She shook her head and hands repeatedly, anxiously arguing, "No, it’s not like that, this person wasn’t killed by my sister, he, he is..."


Qiao Lin couldn’t explain the reason for Zhao Er’s sudden collapse, hesitated, then hurriedly said, "Anyway, it’s definitely not my sister’s fault, my sister’s medical skills are excellent, she absolutely couldn’t have killed anyone!"


Her tone was very assured when she spoke, but she actually had doubts in her heart.


Because her family’s Xiao Jing is currently in a state of amnesia, even if Xiao Jing’s medical skills were very outstanding before, now she probably doesn’t remember much.


So, maybe it really was an accidental mistake just now...


Compared to the anxious Qiao Lin, the involved party Qiao Jing seemed rather calm.


She had felt early on that there was something suspicious about this patient, and it turned out they were planning this scene for her.


Seeing Yang Xiaoxiao bounce around like a clown, it seemed this incident couldn’t be unrelated to her!


Having roughly figured out the situation, Qiao Jing slowly stood up from her seat, bypassed the consultation table, and looked down at Zhao Er, who was still foaming at the mouth on the ground.


Considering the patient’s pulse just now, he indeed suffers from epilepsy, commonly known as convulsions.


However, with his current symptoms, he might fool laymen but can’t fool her.


At this point, other people on the scene, incited by Yang Xiaoxiao and her accomplices, also started condemning Qiao Jing in unison.


"This woman’s medical skills are lacking, yet she dares to flaunt them here, completely disregarding the lives of us patients!"


"It’s too much! Luckily, it wasn’t our turn yet; otherwise, the one lying there might be us!"


"How could such a renowned pharmacy like Wonderful Hall hire someone like her for consultation, isn’t this damaging their reputation?"


"Could it be that this woman knows nothing about acupuncture and is using us as guinea pigs to practice?"


"In any case, it’s a fact that this woman killed someone. If necessary, we can all testify and make sure she doesn’t escape justice!"


"..."


Listening to the righteous condemnation from the crowd, Qiao Lin grew even more flustered and worried about her sister’s predicament.


In contrast, Qiao Jing remained as calm and unhurried as before.


She walked closer to Zhao Er, intending to directly handle the current situation.


Yang Xiaoxiao immediately stepped forward to block her, shrieking, "Qiao Lao San, you’ve already harmed him like this, what do you want to do still? You wouldn’t be thinking of silencing him, making sure there is no witness, would you!"


As soon as this was said, others looked at Qiao Jing with even more peculiar gazes, the condemnation on the scene grew louder, and someone started calling the police amidst the crowd.


Seeing the crowd becoming more and more agitated under Yang Xiaoxiao’s instigation, Qiao Jing had no choice but to explain, "This person is indeed a patient with convulsions, but his illness hasn’t acted up now, he’s pretending."


However, the crowd only trusted what they saw and didn’t believe Qiao Jing’s words at all.


"Does this woman take us all for fools? The man is lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, and she says he’s pretending!"


"Exactly, to say something so ridiculous, she apparently doesn’t even regard her actions as manslaughter; it’s utterly despicable!"


"She has killed someone, how can she still be so arrogant!"


"Stop arguing, no matter how much you argue, you can’t change the fact that you killed someone!"


"..."


Qiao Lin was still unclear about the situation, but hearing Qiao Jing say that, she immediately felt a bit more confident.


She shouted at the people who were constantly denouncing, "Stop spouting nonsense here; my sister has already said this person is faking it, the result isn’t even out yet, stop insisting someone’s been killed, or else I’ll accuse you of defamation!"


Knowing that explanations wouldn’t work, Qiao Jing decided not to say anymore and planned to prove it with facts.


But just as she was about to squat down next to Zhao Er, Yang Xiaoxiao stepped forward to block her again.


Qiao Jing’s gaze turned cold, her face followed suit, and she directly pushed Yang Xiaoxiao away.


In others’ eyes, it seemed like Qiao Jing merely pushed lightly, but the force was significant; Yang Xiaoxiao staggered backward repeatedly and almost fell flat on her back.


After regaining her balance, Yang Xiaoxiao felt apprehensive, and with Qiao Jing’s intimidating aura at the moment, she didn’t dare to advance again.


In full view of everyone, Qiao Jing squatted down, reached out, and forcefully pressed several points on Zhao Er’s body, accurately pressing his acupuncture points each time.


When Qiao Jing pulled her hand back, Zhao Er suddenly twitched violently, the veins on his forehead stood out clearly, cold sweat dripped incessantly, and the foam was much worse than before, his eyes rolled back constantly, looking ready to faint.


"See?" Qiao Jing said unhurriedly, "This is what a real seizure in a convulsions patient looks like."


Yang Xiaoxiao’s expression froze, feeling guilty, but as things had developed this far, she had no choice but to continue as planned.


She adopted a righteous stance and accused, "Qiao Lao San, you are maliciously harming! Just now he wasn’t so severe, but after you poked him a few times, he ended up like this; you really plan to kill him as a witness silencing!"


Qiao Jing remained indifferent, completely ignoring Yang Xiaoxiao’s existence, only coldly watching Zhao Er suffering from the seizure on the ground, and said indifferently, "Do you want to live?"


"If you want to live, answer my question honestly; if what I say is correct, just nod."


"Did Yang Xiaoxiao instruct you to pretend to seek treatment as a pretext, deliberately play this scene to frame me, and accuse me of poor medical skills, and murder?"


Upon hearing Qiao Jing’s words, Zhao Er hesitated not even a bit and immediately nodded with difficulty.


He twitched almost to fainting, not caring about the money at all now!


Money wasn’t as important as his life!
