After Mad Dragon was released from prison, I shocked the world!
Chapter 125 Witchcraft
dong dong dong.
Lin Li knocked on the window of the Bentley.
The car window rolled down, and a blast of cold air hit us.
"Um... Big brother, is there something you need?"
The young man in sunglasses, who had been so arrogant just moments before, was now stammering, as if afraid that Lin Li might tear him apart at the slightest provocation.
Lin Li gave a friendly smile, completely masking his previous fierce demeanor: "Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to Su Lin's house?"
"Ah? Director Su's family?"
The young man in sunglasses paused for a moment, then quickly pointed to a tree-lined road ahead and said, "Go straight along this road, turn left at the third intersection, and that's the villa with the red roof."
Thank you.
Lin Li nodded, then turned and left.
The girl with braided hair in the back seat, who hadn't said a word until now, suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "It's him! It really is him!"
The girl suddenly pushed open the car door and shouted at Lin Li's retreating figure, "Lin Li! You're Lin Li, aren't you?!"
Lin Li paused, but didn't turn around. He simply waved and continued walking away.
……
Su Lin's residence is a two-story villa with a charming little courtyard filled with flowers and plants.
Lin Li rang the doorbell.
Not long after, the door opened and an elderly woman with a full head of white hair came out.
The elderly woman whose cervical spondylosis was cured by Lin Li at the free clinic that day was Su Lin's mother.
"Oh! It's Kobayashi!"
As soon as the old lady saw Lin Li, she quickly opened the courtyard gate with a smile: "Come in, come in! This old woman has been waiting for you!"
"Grandma, how are you feeling?"
Lin Li didn't vent his anger at Shi Yu, but just asked with a smile.
"Great! It's great!"
The old woman held his hand tightly, pulling him into the house as she said, "Ever since you gave me those two acupuncture needles, my neck doesn't hurt at all!"
"I have a great appetite and I'm in excellent health!"
"It's that brat Linlin, always so busy she's never home, and she never even thought to invite you over for a visit."
The two entered the living room.
A young woman in a white lab coat was sitting in the living room, taking notes on a tablet.
Seeing the old lady pulling Lin Li in, the woman immediately frowned: "Grandma, who is this?"
"Oh, Hitomi, this is the miracle doctor Kobayashi I told you about! He's the one who cured my neck!"
The old lady introduced them warmly: "Xiao Lin, this is Dr. Luo Renmei, a medical doctor who returned from studying abroad, and also our family doctor."
Lin Li nodded politely: "Hello."
Luo Renmei ignored him and instead looked at their clasped hands with disdain.
"Madam, please let go of my hand first."
She took a bottle of hand sanitizer out of her bag, walked over quickly, forcefully pulled the old lady's hand out of Lin Li's, and then squeezed a large dollop of hand sanitizer onto the old lady's hand.
"Renmei, what are you doing?"
The old lady was a little unhappy.
"disinfect."
As Luo Renmei rubbed the old lady's hands, she glanced at Lin Li out of the corner of her eye, her tone sharp and sarcastic.
"There are so many bacteria and viruses outside now. Some people run around outside all day long, and who knows how many germs they carry with them."
"You're getting old, and your immune system is weakened, so you shouldn't associate with shady people."
Lin Li narrowed his eyes slightly.
This woman is making a veiled attack.
"Rinmei, Kobayashi is a doctor, and a very skilled one at that. How can he be considered improper?"
The old lady said somewhat angrily.
"doctor?"
Luo Renmei scoffed, sizing Lin Li up and down: "Him? He doesn't even wear a white coat, doesn't even have a stethoscope, and he dares to call himself a doctor?"
"Grandma, don't be fooled by those charlatans. Most of the so-called ancient medical practices are just witchcraft without any scientific basis and cannot withstand clinical verification at all."
She scoffed and said arrogantly, "I'm a PhD graduate from Harvard Medical School. I've seen more patients than he's eaten rice."
"Such nonsense about curing diseases with just two needles can only fool old people like you who don't understand medicine."
"you!"
The old lady was furious when she heard this.
Although she didn't believe in these ancient medical practices before, Xiaolin is a truly skilled person!
Lin Li patted the old lady on the shoulder, signaling her not to be angry, and looked at Luo Renmei, saying, "Dr. Luo, right? You said ancient medicine is witchcraft?"
"Isn't that right?"
Luo Renmei sneered, "Without double-blind experiments, without supporting data, relying on such vague and ethereal things as Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, meridians, and acupoints—what is that if not witchcraft?"
"I advise you to leave now. Don't think that just because you've cured your cervical spondylosis once, you can swindle people here."
"Director Su is very scientific. If she finds out you're a fraud, you won't be able to bear the consequences."
Lin Li smiled and suddenly reached out and gently touched Luo Renmei's wrist.
"What are you doing?!"
Luo Renmei abruptly pulled her hand back, rubbing her wrist with disgust. "Don't touch me!"
"Dr. Luo, as a doctor, don't you know that pulse diagnosis is a fundamental diagnostic method?"
Lin Li looked at her with a half-smile: "You say ancient medicine is unscientific, then can you use your scientific knowledge to explain why you, as a medical doctor, can't even cure your own illness?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Luo Renmei's expression changed, and she angrily retorted, "What illness do I have?!"
"Excessive liver fire leads to a bitter taste in the mouth and bad breath; endocrine disorders cause irregular menstruation accompanied by severe pain; most importantly..."
Lin Li pointed to her neck, "You've been taking antidepressants for a long time, which has caused neurasthenia and tremors in your hands."
"How dare a doctor who can't even hold a scalpel properly call himself an elite?"
"How...how did you know?!"
Luo Renmei stared blankly at Lin Li. These were all her private matters, especially the fact that she was taking antidepressants, which even Su Lin didn't know about!
"This is what you call witchcraft."
Lin Li said calmly, "You diagnose illness by taking the pulse and by using pharmacology to differentiate syndromes. You only know how to suppress symptoms with antibiotics and hormones, but you don't understand how to address the root cause."
"That's why you couldn't cure the old lady's illness, but I could."
"you……"
Luo Renmei wanted to refute but couldn't find the words. She could only stare intently at Lin Li, her fear growing stronger.
Just then, the courtyard gate was suddenly kicked open.
"Mom! I'm home!"
Su Lin walked in with an angry expression.
Behind her followed two wounded men, supporting each other.
One was Shi Yu, his face bruised and swollen, his mouth full of blood; the other was Zhao Kui, his arm in a sling, his face contorted in pain.
"Linlin, what happened?"
The old lady was startled.
Su Lin ignored her mother and rushed straight to Lin Li, pointing her finger at his nose and roaring, "Lin Li! Look what you've done!"
"I kindly asked you to treat my illness, and you actually committed violence and assault in the courtyard?!"
