“What?!” Harvey shrieked. Daiz’s judgment astounded everyone in the room.
Veronica glared at Delilah and snapped, “It’s all your fault! Are you happy now that Mr. Whitlock is
doomed? I demand that you turn over all of your Whitlock assets or you shall go to prison!”
The woman’s greed was undeniably exposed; the rest of the Whitlock family also looked at Delilah with
hatred, as though she should be held responsible for Blanc’s condition.
As the eldest member of the family, Harvey naturally had to keep his cool. However, his silent attitude
toward his wife’s unreasonable demands revealed his position on the matter.
After the other family members calmed down slightly, Daiz shook his head and clarified, “You
misunderstood my words earlier! Although I’m not sure where the young man learned the 24 Needles
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTechnique, he clearly has superior medical skills to mine. The technique is said to have been created
by a godly person during the first Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, Genghis Khan’s era. It was
rumored that he had the power to prolong life. Even though there may be some exaggerations in the
rumors, I believe that the technique is advanced enough to treat Mr. Whitlock’s condition.” The old man
frowned and continued, “However, based on my pulse reading, it seems like someone forcibly removed
the needle during the young man’s treatment.”
Everyone turned to Veronica and murmured, “You… you’re right!” Their admiration for Daiz was beyond
words; he was worthy of his reputation as the best physician in Nirth. However, they were appalled to
hear that Skylar’s skills superseded Daiz’s.
Seeing that his deductions were accurate, Daiz said with a heavy heart, “You said that this young girl
has asked the young man to kill Mr. Whitlock, but in my opinion, the person who forcibly removed the
needle is the real culprit!”
“What?!” Everyone was shocked, especially Veronica, who had a look of disbelief.
Daiz shook his head and explained, “No matter the technique, once a needle enters the body, it can
only be removed after a specific time. The treatment is completed after a trained practitioner removes
the needles. If the needles are forcibly removed during the treatment, it’ll have the opposite effect and
cause fatal harm to the patient. Even I wouldn’t be able to save him!”
Everyone was taken aback. Veronica, who had been gloating earlier, was flabbergasted. She was the
one who insisted on removing the needle! In other words, she was the one responsible for Blanc’s dire
situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarvey’s mouth twitched as he cursed in his heart, Veronica is just a dumbass who causes more harm
than good.
While everyone was still lost in thought, Delilah asked Daiz anxiously, “Now’s not the time to find fault.
Do you have any other solutions to save my grandpa?”
Daiz hesitated for a moment and slightly nodded, “There is a way…” Delilah’s eyes lit up and she
looked at the man with great anticipation, “Please tell us what we can do!”
“Are there any other ways to save my grandpa? Delilah pleaded. To her delight, the old man nodded
his head slightly and said, “There’s a way…”
The girl’s eyes lit up and she looked at Daiz in anticipation.
“The mysteries of the 24 Needles Technique are beyond the common folks’ understanding. If we can
get the young man back, your grandfather still has a chance of survival,” Daiz said cautiously.
Harvey and Veronica asked reluctantly, “Are you sure that only the young lad is capable of treating Mr.
Whitlock?”
