Melody looked at Clarence arrogantly. “Since you’ve already lost, hurry up and close the clinic! From now on, it’s ours!”
This clinic was five thousand and three hundred square feet and worth two hundred million dollars!
Melody was excited at the thought of having it for herself!
“Who said I’ve lost?” Clarence asked casually.
“What’s the matter? Do you deny it?”
Both Belle and Melody’s mean faces darkened at the same time.
Clarence shook his head as he watched them prepare to taunt him. “I haven’t even started yet. How could I have already lost?”
Belle frowned. “Start the treatment, then!”
Clarence ignored Belle and Melody, looking at Master Williams instead. “What the patient wants is a complete cure!
“You’ve given the patient a prescription that requires a month before he can fully recover.
“The patient will continue to suffer during that month!”
“Hmph! Healing’s a gradual process. Can you cure his rheumatism in an instant?” Master Williams snorted coldly with a look of disdain.
His prescribed duration was already the shortest length it could possibly be.
It would be near impossible to cure seventeen years of rheumatism in a month without harming James’s health.
Clarence smiled proudly. “Of course I can.”
Clarence did not beat around the bush. He immediately took out a row of silver needles, selected a few of them, and inserted them into James.
With his x-ray vision, Clarence could see that James had accumulated cold air in his legs, blocking his meridians.
He would only need to dredge the meridians and evacuate the cold air to get rid of James’ rheumatism.
After three needles, James felt the relief in his legs. His previous soreness and swelling instantly left him.
His legs had also become more flexible.
“Huh?”
James jumped for joy twice, his eyes shining with happiness.
“Is… my rheumatism completely gone?” James dared not believe it.
He had just taken Master Williams’ medicine, and although the pain in his legs had left, he had still had difficulty moving.
After Clarence inserted a few needles into him, not only did James’s legs stop hurting, but he could also jump and run afterward.
“A miracle! It’s a miracle! Miracle doctor, you’re really a miracle doctor!”
James gave Clarence his heartfelt praise.
Master Williams’ face was grim. ‘Did I just lose that easily?’
Suddenly, Belle exclaimed strangely, “Yo, the acting’s pretty good!”
“Acting?”
Clarence frowned slightly.
Belle sneered and said, “Isn’t it acting? Who knows where this old man has come from? Maybe he’s one of the actors you’ve hired.”
“Nonsense!”
James’s face darkened, and he laughed mockingly in his anger. “I’m James Walker and I’ve been in the calligraphy industry for decades. Why would I lie or act?”
“I’ve never heard of a James Walker or a Jimmy Walker.
“You old geezer, is it still fun for you to fool people at your age?” Belle was contemptuous.
“Yeah, at your age, shouldn’t you have better things to do, like caring for your family?”
“You even came here to fool us! I have to say, your acting’s pretty good,” Melody also taunted.
“You! You’re insulting me. This is insulting!” James was furious.
A great calligrapher like him was being called a liar.
Clarence knew that even though he had cured James, Belle and Melody would never admit it to themselves or to him.
“I know you won’t admit that I’ve won, so why don’t we continue with the challenge?”
Clarence looked at Belle and Melody with a poker face.
“Sure! How are we going to do it?” Belle got straight to the point, not talking nonsense any longer.
She had already deemed the calligrapher James Walker as an actor Clarence had hired.
Clarence glanced around the clinic. “There are so many rich people here, and almost everyone has a disease.
“Master Williams and I will treat them at the same time. Whoever cures the most people wins. What do you think?
“Well…”
Belle’s eyes sparkled slightly, catching the light.
Melody tugged at Belle’s sleeve.
Clarence could not help laughing when he saw them hesitating. “You don’t think everyone else here is also an actor I’ve hired, do you?”
“Of course not!”
Belle shook her head. She knew several of these people.
They were big shots in real estate.
They were worth billions and billions of dollars. Why would they come here and put on a show for Clarence’s sake?
Even if they were here to put on a show, could the broke Clarence even afford to hire them?
“Bring it on! I’m not afraid of you!” Belle threw her head back arrogantly.
“Sure! Let’s start!” Clarence did not say more and simply started the contest. “Who wants to go first?”
A middle-aged man walked forward. He was 5 feet and 11 inches tall and looked like a giant. “I’ll go first. I’m Hector Yellow, and I’m in the aquatic business. I supply 70 percent of Mediterranean City’s aquatic products!”
“You have bad kidneys!” Clarence glanced at Hector.
Hector’s face turned red. “What did you say?”
“You have bad kidneys!”
Clarence sounded like a broken record.
“Pffft!”
“Hahaha!”
The rich men around them covered their mouths and sniggered.
Belle said with amusement, “Clarence, stop talking nonsense. Mr. Yellow is 5 feet and 11 inches tall and strong. How can he possibly have bad kidneys?”
“You…”
Hector looked grim. “Stop talking nonsense, young man!”
“I can cure it. Can you?” Clarence looked at Hector with amusement.
Hector hesitated for a while, but finally got over his initial fears and nodded. “I treat…”
“Huh?”
“Does he really have bad kidneys?”
Belle and Melody were quite surprised!
Clarence did not say anything and just inserted needles into Hector’s body. Then he prescribed him two different medicines. “You’re in good shape. Just take these for three days!”
“Don’t forget, you still have to take good care of yourself. If you don’t, there will be more problems!”
Hector’s face was red. He often went out to sea on fishing boats and he rarely took women with him.
He was a fine physical specimen!
Hector had no idea how Clarence had noticed such a thing. He was very impressed by Clarence!
“Thank you for reminding me, Master Howard!”
Clarence nodded and said, “Next!”
