Chapter 2446 - 676: Someone Causing Trouble (Part 4)
"Oh, you still want to convict me? You’re biting back! I can’t live anymore! This life is unbearable!"
At the same time, those men and women started cursing as well. Two men were ready to get physical, grabbing Chen Xiaobao and Nie Yuan by the collar, about to hit them. Other Medicine Sect disciples hurriedly stopped them, thinking this family’s reaction was a bit excessive.
Usually, no matter how agitated the relatives of patients are, they’d want to understand the cause of death, right? This family seems disinterested in clarifying the old man’s death, instead insisting Xuanjin Hall killed him.
Nie Yuan and the others exchanged a silent glance, all realizing the unusual nature of this situation.
An Yiqing looked coldly at the old lady yelling at her, not saying a word. Her red lips slightly pressed together, eyes slightly narrowed, a flash of light crossed the bottom of her eyes.
She glanced at the old man’s corpse with deep meaning, then looked at the family members one by one, finally fixing her gaze on a woman.
Silently sneering in her heart, An Yiqing stepped forward, "You claim the medicine from Xuanjin Hall killed someone, where is it? Let me see. There has to be evidence, right?"
"Of course there’s evidence!" a woman stepped out, taking a bottle of medicine from her bag, "This is it, this was prescribed by your Xuanjin Hall, it even has your mark on it! It’s the one that killed my father-in-law!"
A commotion ensued, the medicine indeed was from Xuanjin Hall without doubt. Many among them had taken it.
An Yiqing looked at the woman, her gaze cold and sharp, "Madam, are you sure this medicine was bought from Xuanjin Hall? The receipt?"
The woman rummaged in her bag, taking out a crumpled receipt, "Here it is! Everyone, take a look, the name of Xuanjin Hall is printed right there!"
Someone with sharp eyes saw the name "Xuanjin Hall" on the receipt and compared it to the one in their hand. It’s true!
Instantly, the faces of many patients asking for consultations changed. They had taken that medicine too, could there be a problem?
Chen Xiaobao’s face turned somewhat unpleasant. The medicine was indeed from Xuanjin Hall, their own creation, unique and unparalleled. Could it be that he really misdiagnosed?
"Senior sister, it’s my fault, let me handle this." He stepped forward, unwilling to let An Yiqing take the fall for him.
The patients’ families immediately perked up on seeing this.
"Look! He admitted it himself! He misdiagnosed! Compensate me for my father’s life!"
"Exactly! My old man was healthy, compensate me for my father-in-law’s life!"
"Indeed! My son was supposed to get married in a few days, but with his grandfather dead, the wedding is postponed! Can you bear the responsibility?!"
For a moment, Chen Xiaobao was jostled by several patients’ families, almost taking a tumble.
Nie Yuan and the Medicine Sect people hurriedly stepped forward to persuade, but dared not be rough. In the chaos, they got scratched a few times, drawing blood.
An Yiqing’s eyes turned cold, aura surging, "Shut up, all of you!"
The crowd shuddered, taken aback.
"If you want to resolve the issue, stay quiet! If you want to make a scene, get out! The old man died, and your first thought isn’t to investigate the cause of death, just to create a ruckus. What’s wrong with you?!"
The crowd was stunned, suddenly realizing. Right, if their family member died suddenly, the first thing would be to figure out the cause. Who would carry the old man’s corpse to create chaos?
Unconsciously, the crowd began to question these few people’s motives and authenticity.
The old lady wailing on the ground sensed something awry, raising her voice to cry again, "Old man, how miserable you are! Even in death, they’re suspecting you, what has the world come to?"
The man standing beside wiped away tears, "Mom, don’t cry and hurt yourself, if they don’t admit, we’ll file complaints. I refuse to believe even those in higher places won’t care." Saying this, he raised his head and glared at An Yiqing as if wanting to devour her, "You heartless merchants, how dare I let you examine the body? What if you take the old man’s body and don’t return it?! I don’t care, if you don’t admit, I’ll sue you! I’ll keep suing until you go bankrupt!"
At ordinary clinics, when encountering such matters, usually it’s resolved by compensation. But, is An Yiqing an ordinary person?
She sneered, walking to the man’s side, "Sue me? Call the police? No need. Just now, I’ve already called the police. The officers and forensic experts will arrive soon, I won’t touch the old man’s body, and after the forensic autopsy, all facts will come to light!"
