Open a Clinic to Cultivate Myself Chapter 268 We're Not Familiar

A diagnosis appeared on the ledger of bamboo slips: “Louis, born in 1998. A person of evil. The first sin is being unfilial to his parents, amounting to 10 points of the sin of evil intention. The second sin is killing 17 people, amounting to 119 points of sin of evil intention. The third is harming others… All amounting to 151 points of the sin of evil intention. He could get a prescription pact for the sin of evil intention and atone for his sins with his life.”

Foreigners did not use the Lunar calendar; thus the ledger of bamboo slips did not provide any date of birth in the traditional format. That was all the difference there was.

Following, Ning Tao got up to the table and drafted a prescription pact of the sin of evil intention. He took the prescription pact and a pen, along with a medicine containing the Fine Primary Elixir, coming to before Louis. “Sign your name here.”

“What is written here…?” Louis asked. He could not read Huaxia language. Even when Ning Tao had placed the prescription pact of the sin of evil intention before him, he could not understand what was written on it.

Ning Tao glared furiously at him. “Refuse to sign and you'll die!”

Louis was already in the state of intense agony, and with Ning Tao's unleash of fury, he no longer dared to hesitate. He took the pen and signed his name on the prescription pact.

Ning Tao gave him a Fine Primary Elixir and made him consume it.

A bluish smoke enveloped Louis after he took the Fine Elixir.

The remaining four living people were staring blankly at the ball of smoke, their hearts filled with shock and fear.

Ning Tao came beside the white youth, asking coolly, “Do you wish to be treated?”

“Don't you… lie to me…” The white youth's voice was frail, but his attitude was firm. “We're from Mi country… You can't kill us… Even if we were to be trialed… only the Mi court could trial us… If not…”

Ning Tao sneered, “I have no idea who gave you the guts to speak to me like this. There are no trials here, only atonement.”

Just then, the blue smoke had returned to the good-evil tripod. The black youth reappeared in the clinic. There was not a bit of injury on him, and had even appeared to be in a better condition than before he was injured.

The few armed men were shocked.

Louis looked at himself then at Ning Tao. He suddenly fell to his knees, and was mumbling incessantly, as if he was chanting some scripture. It was not hard to tell that he had taken Ning Tao as either a demon or an angel.

Ning Tao looked at the other three who were still alive but on the brink of death. “Do you accept my treatment?”

The three armed men hurriedly agreed.

Ning Tao took the ledger of bamboo slips and walked over. He diagnosed and drafted prescription pacts of the sin of evil intention, then made each of them sign and gave them the medicine.

The blue smoke from the good-evil tripod had overwhelmed once again, consuming the three who had taken the Fine Primary Elixir.

Each of these armed men would carry at least a hundred plus points of sin of evil intention with them. Even though they could not compare to Chu Yixiong's 5000 plus points of merit of good intention, how many people of great virtue were there in the world like Chu Yixiong anyway? Thus, he could not despise the small amount of treatment fees. He should just take whatever he could earn. Slowing accumulating the little into a lot, he would then have “spare”, and would no longer have to fret.

In an instant, the blue smoke had disappeared. The three armed men who had rushed into the Sky Clinic the quickest had reappeared in the clinic, there was not a scar on their body, they also looked like they were in good shape.

The white youth, who had claimed to come from Mi country and that Ning Tao was forbidden from killing him, had grown repentant. He said with a hint of uncertainty, “Doctor… save me…”

A cold smirk appeared on Ning Tao's lips. “Didn't you say you're from the Mi country? I don't dare to kill Mi people but I don't dare to save them either.”

“They… are all from Mi country,” the white youth said.

Ning Tao revealed a shocked expression. “Oh really? How did I not know that? I can save you, but you have to answer a few of my questions.”

“What do you want to know?” The eyes of the white youth glistened.

Ning Tao said, “Are you all from the Black Fire Company?”

The white youth's lips moved but did not say anything. He was the team leader of this group of mercenaries, so he was very sure what his outcome would be if he betrayed the Black Fire Company.

The white youth did not say anything, but Louis who had first received treatment said, “Yes, we're part of the Black Fire Company.”

“Louis! You should know what you're doing…” Before he could finish speaking, the white youth suddenly turned back to see a large scalpel stabbed into his thigh. His unfinished sentence turned into a horrifying shriek. “Ah-ah!”

Ning Tao slowly twisted the Blade of the Solar Eclipse and said coolly, “It's okay if you don't want to answer me, but you've even threatened my patient. Do you really think your Mi citizenship can save you or is an Aircraft Carrier Battle Group on their way to my clinic right now?”

The white youth was in such pain that his voice was shaking uncontrollably. “I… I'm a military attaché… My name is Sheffield… You'll invoke international political conflict… if you kill me…”

Once he finished speaking, the Blade of the Solar Eclipse was stabbed into his other thigh. However, apart from pain, none of his biological processes were evidently failing. He did not know that Ning Tao was also using spiritual power to heal him as he stabbed him.

Military attaché? Regardless of whether Sheffield was speaking the truth or not, this place was the Sky Clinic. Even if the general of the Mi country were here, Ning Tao would still stab him!

As Sheffield shrieked, Ning Tao continued speaking, “I'll ask my second question. Is Hanks also from the Black Fire Company?”

Sheffield could not speak but had only screamed horribly. However, his blood-curdling scream had brought fear to the other four. They had just escaped from death; they definitely did not want to experience it again.

“Yes, Hanks is also from the Black Fire Company, and has a very high level of authority,” an armed man named Tom said.

“Good. Let me ask all my questions. Once you've answered all of them, you can all leave,” Ning Tao said. He paused then asked, “Is Nicholas Conway the boss of Black Fire Company?”

Nobody responded.

Ning Tao lifted the knife in his hand, and the Blade of the Solar Eclipse was stabbed into Sheffield's bum.

“Ah—” Sheffield shrieked. “Why… why did you have to stab me…”

“Because your silence makes me unhappy.” Once he finished speaking, Ning Tao withdrew the Blade of the Solar Eclipse and thrust it downwards. With a sound, it was pierced into Sheffield's bum again.

Sheffield gasped, but there was only the sound of him inhaling. He wanted to faint, but a magical force was carrying him on, such that no matter how intense the pain was, he would be completely awake and just could not faint.

Louis said, “We… are just small fries, we don't know the answer to this question, but… but I guess you're right.”

Ning Tao had intended to understand what kind of person Nicholas Conway was through these few “living people”, but now it seemed like these few insignificant people were too low level to have knowledge of the confidential secrets of Black Fire Company. He thought for a while, then said, “Is Tamao Takeda also part of Black Fire Company? Don't you lie to me. You're able to stay in his hotel, and had received assistance from him on your operations.”

Louis said, “We're not too sure whether Mr. Takeda is part of the Black Fire Company. Hanks has been in direct contact with him. Hanks is part of the Black Fire Company, and is also the senior engineer of Gerton Company.”

Ning Tao had another idea. “Is the microchip which will be on display tomorrow the one Hanks brought over?”

Louis was a bit hesitant. This was a secret that concerned his life and death.

Ning Tao lifted the Blade of the Solar Eclipse and stabbed into Sheffield's bum again.

“Ah—” Sheffield shrieked, “You… why did you stab me?”

Ning Tao took out the knife and stabbed again. Another deep wound appeared on Sheffield's bum.

That was his answer.

Did I need any reason to stab you?

Tom could no longer put up with this pressure and said, “Yes, we were the ones who had escorted Hanks here with a case. I'm guessing that was the microchip.”

Even though it was an uncertain answer, it had invited Ning Tao to think further. He thought to himself internally, “This means that Bai Sheng actually has connections with the Black Fire Company, and could even be part of the company!”

He had always perceived Bai Sheng as a traditional 1000-year-old snake demon, sinister, sly, and significantly ambitious, but he had never related Bai Sheng to the Black Fire Company of the West. Now it seemed like the series of events had not been by pure chance or randomness, but could have been part of a secret scheme!

However, what could be the aim of the Black Fire Company's sending Bai Sheng a technologically advanced microchip?

Ning Tao could not figure it out so he had stopped thinking. “You tried to kill me, and I can understand that, because we're enemies. But what I can't understand is, why did you kidnap Lin Qingyu, given that she is of no value to you?”

Ning Tao had just finished speaking, and Sheffield instantly shouted, “Wait!”

Ning Tao had pulled the Blade of the Solar Eclipse and lifted it up high.

“Don't…” Tears fell from Sheffield's eyes. “I'll answer… this question… I know…”

Ning Tao's hand fell. He had already stabbed Sheffield's butt to the point of it becoming a sieve. However, he was unable to feel a shred of pity in his evil state and did not feel uncomfortable at all with his own cruelty.

Evil people would be punished by evil people, and he was the person of greater evil punishing this evil person.

Sheffield said, “This operation was because of Lin Qinghua… he had ordered us to take his sister to the Mi country…”

Lin Qinghua?

Ning Tao was frozen to the spot. He had contemplated many possibilities but he did not expect such a truth.

“Why did he want you to take Lin Qingyu away?” Ning Tao asked.

“This, I have no idea… Really… I swear…” Sheffield was going to raise his hands to vouch for himself.

Ning Tao placed the ledger of bamboo slips on Sheffield's palms which had been raised up high. After receiving the diagnosis, he drafted a prescription pact of the sin of evil intention for Sheffield.

There was nothing more of value which he could get from these guys, so it was about time he ended this.

After Sheffield's treatment was completed, he was standing in the clinic in one piece again. To him, what he had just experienced was like a nightmare; it was not real.

“When can we leave this place?” Sheffield asked warily.

Ning Tao said, “Hug me, then you may leave.”

The few armed men exchanged glances, and their eyes were filled with confusion.

Ning Tao raised the Blade of the Solar Eclipse, admiring the blood pattern on the blade.

Fear overcame Sheffield, and he instantly hugged onto Ning Tao. Just as he had spread his arms to embrace him, he sensed something stung him on his vest but that sensation had disappeared instantly, so he did not mind much and immediately let go after hugging.

The remaining four had also hugged Ning Tao. They then stood together, watching Ning Tao with caution.

“You must deliver as promised. We've answered your questions, you have to let us go,” Sheffield said.

Ning Tao spoke, “Yup, I'll arrange for a car to pick you up, just wait here for a while.”

After speaking, he walked quickly to the door, opening it and walked out.

When the five armed men had followed to the door, the door to the clinic was slammed shut.

Ning Tao sat on the steps while looking at his phone. Ten minutes later, he got up, opened the door to the clinic and entered.

There were five bodies on the floor.

The Sacred Needle to Nasty Diseases. That was his way of dealing with evil. It was more artistic than stabbing with a knife or shooting with a gun.

Yet, just as Ning Tao was staring at the six bodies on the floor, the bodies were melting and seeping into the ground. He was shocked because it was his first time that he had witnessed it. However, his shock had soon died down, he was executing the clinic's diagnosis to have the patients repay with their lives. The bodies had remained in the clinic so the clinic would definitely destroy them here. If the clinic had its own way of treating people, it would definitely have its way of burying the atoning individuals.

“Are you really sending them to hell?” Ning Tao asked, looking at the good-evil tripod.

The good-evil tripod shut its eyes, looking as if they were not familiar with each other.
