Chapter 150 Who is the mastermind?
Chapter 150 Who is the mastermind?
Hearing E Ling's words, the Beast King's face instantly darkened, "Great Doctor, do you really want to harm Chang Ze?!"
"I, I...I don't..."
The great doctor pinched the soft flesh on his neck. He wanted to refute the words of plea but couldn't say a word. His mouth seemed to have lost control. Instead, he said: "So what if I added herbs that counteract the poison? It's me who doesn't want Changze to live. It's me who wants to kill him..."
The great doctor pinched his throat painfully, as if trying to stop his mouth from saying such words, but it was of no avail. His language system was completely out of his control, and even he himself could not explain why he became like this?
Could it be because he took the pill that the female just stuffed into his hand?
"Great Doctor, now that you've taken my special truth serum pill, don't waste your energy. Tell us everything you've done to hurt Nagasawa!"
Hearing this, the great physician wanted to die, but he still kept telling the truth: "It was me. I was the one who poisoned Changze. Ever since Changze fell ill due to lack of spiritual power, I poisoned his medicine in the name of taking care of him, making him completely unconscious. Because I am a powerful great physician in Beast City, no one would doubt me for doing all this! But it was you, a female, who discovered the fact that Changze was poisoned. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have taken such a risk today..."
Changze lay weakly in Eling's arms. When he heard the great doctor's self-explanation, his face became increasingly uglier, and even his breathing became a little short.
"Great doctor, you watched me grow up, why do you treat me like this?"
"It's because you're too much of an eyesore! You're the one blocking the way..."
Before he could finish his words, Lu Shi interrupted him with a stern voice: "Great Doctor, my father trusted you so much, and you actually wanted to harm my father's most trusted minister?! I think you are so audacious that you deserve to die!"
The great physician seemed to have triggered a switch. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Beast King desperately, "Beast King! All the mistakes are my fault! I am willing to die to atone for my sins!!"
"Die? Do you think a simple apology of dying can offset the pain and torture Changze has endured these days?" The Beast King's face was as cold as ice, and the low-pressure aura around him was as terrifying as a storm. "Tell me, did anyone instruct you to do what you did today?"
"I, I... instructed... it was..."
The great doctor lay on the ground, with his tongue pressed tightly against his throat, not daring to speak. He caught a glimpse of the broken pieces of the medicine bowl scattered on the ground, picked up a piece of the piece and stabbed it into his throat.
E Ling reacted quickly, "Oh no, he wants to commit suicide!!"
The Beast King stepped forward and snatched the weapon from his hand, but the Great Physician still managed to pierce his own throat before the weapon was taken away. Blood spurted out his chest, and the Great Physician could only sob and utter a few syllables that others could not understand.
He had made his vocal cords hoarse...the truth serum pills could no longer force him to say anything against his will.
The Beast King frowned slightly and called the guards unhappily: "Take him to the dungeon and interrogate him strictly. Even if he can't speak, make him confess the mastermind behind this!"
"Yes!"
The guards dragged the great physician away. The blood that flowed from the great physician's throat spread all over the ground as he was dragged. The thick smell of blood filled the air.
But soon, the uncomfortable fishy and hot smell was cleaned up.
"Changze, you just woke up. I should have let you receive the best rest. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I'm sorry for having wronged you..." The Beast King fell on Changze with a guilty look.
Changze did not look at the Beast King, but had a dull expression and looked listless.
"Don't feel guilty, Beast King. I have already received a lot of care from you. State affairs are busy. Please don't waste too much time on me."
The Beast King looked at Changze's cold attitude, moved his lips, but finally said nothing.
E Ling felt strange. Aren't they relatives? Why do they seem to be unfamiliar with each other?
The Beast King left Changze's room, Lu Shi exchanged a few words and left, and all other irrelevant people were also dismissed by Changze. For a moment, only Changze, E Ling and Mo Lin were left in the room.
Changze was lying on the bed, looking at Eling with a deep and nostalgic gaze, his eyes constantly on Eling's face. He didn't even dare to blink, for fear that she would disappear if he blinked.
"Ling, I'm sorry for getting you involved in my troubles. Originally, when you came to the north, I should have given you the best care and treatment."
"Nagaze, you don't have to apologize. If you feel sorry for me, get well soon."
E Ling looked at him with heartache. He had just been framed by the great doctor, so he should be the one feeling sad, right? But he was thinking about her first.
"Of course I have to take good care of myself. I said I would pursue you and make you my female. If I don't take good care of myself, how can I please you? No female would like a weak and vulnerable male, right?"
Changze smiled self-deprecatingly, but when he saw E Ling, his depressed heart was instantly filled with hope again.
"Who said that……"
E Ling muttered something, causing Mo Lin behind her to pat the ground with his snake tail restlessly, then he rolled up her legs, carried her and was about to leave.
"A Ling, since he is fine now, let's leave his care to other doctors in the city, right? Let's go back, or Xuan Ming will be worried."
"Hey hey——" E Ling was startled by Mo Lin's sudden action, and she twisted Mo Lin's hand to get off, "Mo Lin, wait, I still have something to say to Chang Ze."
Mo Lin's eyes were filled with resentment, "This reminiscing time is too long..."
"Something really happened. Put me down quickly, or I'll be really angry and you're not allowed to go to bed tonight!!!" E Ling pretended to be angry and tried to scare Mo Lin.
"...Don't be angry."
Mo Lin had no choice but to put her down, then glanced at Changze with an unhappy look.
This deer beast was an eyesore to him when it was unconscious, and it was even more of an eyesore when it was awake!
If I wasn't afraid of affecting A Ling's emotions, I really wanted to swing my snake tail over and paralyze the deer beast on one side of its body, so that I wouldn't have to worry about the deer beast taking away A Ling's love for him.
Changze soon discovered the red marks on E Ling's neck that had not completely faded, and sensed the aura of a couple on them. He clenched his hands hidden under the animal skin blanket, then loosened them. He smiled at Mo Lin to show his friendliness.
"You are Ling's partner, right? Don't worry. Although I am Ling's suitor, I know my limits. I am very satisfied that Ling is willing to come and see me, and I will not do anything beyond the limit to her."
Nagasawa is gentle and restrained, and looks very sensible.
Instead, Mo Lin felt that he had been tricked by Changze, which made him seem like the ignorant one?
This deer beast, it seems, should not be underestimated!!
