"Sister! It’s them who went too far!" Jianxiong pointed directly at Lin Yao’s nose.
Su Mo looked towards Lin Yao and noticed a large area of bruising around her left eye socket, which seed to be fresh from a recent hit.
Su Mo turned back to him, "Did you hit soone?"
Jianxiong lowered his hand and said angrily, "They started it, Li He was almost beaten."
Su Mo nodded and looked back at Lin Yao, her gaze no longer as benevolent as before, "Tell , why did you hit our Healing Superpower User?"
"What else could it be, of course it’s because we stepped on their toes," Jianxiong didn’t wait for the other side to speak and interjected.
The Fatty next to Lin Yao said sarcastically, "What do you an by stepping on toes? You are luring our patients away for treatnt, is that decent?"
Li He couldn’t help but step out from behind Jianxiong, his normally gentle face showing so annoyance,
"What is indecent? The person just had a bone misalignnt in the leg that pierced through the skin. For such wounds that don’t need virus cleaning, the energy consumption for treatnt is negligible. Do you think charging 50 Level 2 Crystal Stones is a bit too much? Moreover, he was leaving because he couldn’t afford the treatnt when I happened to bump into him. Is it wrong for to help him for free?"
After hearing his explanation, Su Mo had a rough idea of what had happened, she raised an eyebrow, "Where is that patient?"
Jianxiong: "His foot healed, and he left."
Su Mo stood in front of Lin Yao with a sowhat dangerous smile on her face, "So, you have been secretly running a black clinic in the refugee camp, charging exorbitant fees without anyone knowing?"
Feeling uneasy from her smile, Lin Yao argued, "What exorbitant clinic fees? We have a clear price list. As long as people are willing to pay, it’s a fair price."
Su Mo did not imdiately rebut their words but said to herself, "Lately, thanks to Lin Yao, you, Fatty, have made quite a bit of money, haven’t you?"
It wasn’t just a bit of money; not only had he completely covered the losses of the mutton shop, but he had also made a substantial profit.
Of course, Fatty couldn’t admit this and took a protective stance behind Lin Yao, "I’ve said it before, I have a clear price list. If people are willing to pay for treatnt, then it’s possible."
Su Mo chuckled, "Oh, that way it doesn’t seem to be a problem, but if people no longer want your treatnt, why do you still co knocking at their doors looking for trouble?"
Fatty was at a loss for words, and Su Mo spoke for him, "Is it because once Li He arrived, this free public clinic took away most of your patients?"
The clinic established in the refugee camp was staffed with doctors and nurses selected from among the ordinary people, and the dicines provided were brought back by Lu Chen and her team. Those who ca for treatnt only needed to pay the cost of the dicines, which was usually very low. Patients naturally gravitated towards the free services, which was understandable.
Lin Yao said angrily, "He had just left our shop when Li He pulled people away, isn’t that inappropriate?"
Su Mo nodded, "It does seem rather inappropriate."
Li He’s expression stiffened, and then he heard her say, "I’ll have soone post a sign later, stating that Li He can offer free healing treatnts in the morning. In the afternoon, he is free to do as he pleases. If he wishes to work, he can set his own consultation fee."
"Oh, right, and that doctor," Su Mo called over a nearby doctor, "when the soldiers arrive, have them spread the word. And to those who have moved here from Y City next door, they don’t seem to have a Healing Superpower User either, do they? Let the word out there so they don’t waste their money."
Jianxiong broke into a smile, and Li He’s expression softened as he looked toward Su Mo, filled with gratitude.
To be honest, his temperant was not very strong, and because of his physique, he was thin and scrawny. Working in the clinic was quite suitable for him, as he could chat with everyone, and soone was there to attend to his needs for three als a day. Life couldn’t be more blissful.
Lin Yao was so angry she felt her lungs might explode, her face shriveled and turning beet red as she pointed at Su Mo’s nose, "Why do you get to decide like this? Do you call the shots in the refugee camp?"
Su Mo shook her head with a smile, "I don’t call the shots, I’m just making a suggestion. It’s up to them to follow through or not."
"You!"
Fatty’s face darkened, and he stared at Su Mo with a sinister look, "Don’t be too ruthless when you act, everyone has their own way to survive."
Su Mo’s smile also turned cold, "Of course I know that. If you guys had restrained yourselves a bit, I would have certainly turned a blind eye. But everything has a bottom line. Since you’ve crossed that line, you expect not to fight back when you co for ? Do you think I’m made of dough?"
Lin Yao had endured as much as she could and couldn’t take it anymore, "Let tell you, Su Mo, if it cos to it, I might just go and seek refuge with the people from Y city and get a better treatnt."
Su Mo had been waiting for her to say this, and she said nonchalantly, "Then go ahead, we won’t miss one less person."
Compared to the severe resource disparity among the superpower users and the hunger of ordinary people in Y city, the treatnt in P city’s refugee camp was truly good.
Seeing Su Mo unmoved, Lin Yao furiously pushed over a cabinet beside her, and the dicine scattered all over the floor. She stepped on the dicine and walked out.
Su Mo’s expression turned completely cold as she flashed in front of the door and blocked it, "Your hands look pretty empty. Don’t you realize how precious these dicines are now?"
A hint of murderous intent radiated from her, and Jianxiong knew Su Mo was truly angry. He imdiately pulled Li He back and his Bone Spur pierced through the skin on the back of his hand. He strode beside Su Mo, appearing fierce and threatening, "Shall we give them a beating?"
After all, they’d thoroughly offended them and were planning to defect to the neighbors anyway. What would it matter to give them a beating before compensating with dical expenses?
Lin Yao and her group consisted of five people. Su Mo twisted her neck as her aura flared, "Now you have two options. One, pay for these dicines and then leave. Two, I’ll keep hitting until you pay up."
Wasting dicine was intolerable in Su Mo’s eyes. These things were so precious, and the actions of that woman were truly infuriating.
Lin Yao shrank behind her teammates and scoffed, "I’m telling you, that’s impossible!"
Su Mo nodded, "Hmm, as long as no one dies, you can be healed back to health. Jianxiong, drag them out."
Jianxiong, like a moving mountain, approached Fatty and reached out to grab him. The opponent imdiately threw a Wind Blade at him.
Jianxiong’s chest had been hardened, showing only a tear in his clothes from the blade, and this act had completely enraged him.
All five were thrown out of the clinic and into the pouring rain.
The rain, which nearly reached their shins, choked Fatty as he gulped a mouthful. Everyone has a breaking point, and the five sprang up, clashing with the two.
Su Mo took this as a combat practice, her right hand transforming into a Wooden Shield instantaneously as she engaged in the fray with the others. Lin Yao, who was essentially a weakling with no combat ability, just stood up and moved aside, watching the fight unfold.
