Chapter 518
“You-” Steven was seething. He spat out a mouthful of black blood and died on the spot.
In three minutes, all the black–clad men collapsed to the floor and kicked the bucket. “Miracle doctor, I’ve helped you get rid of all the nuisances. It’s only two of us now.” The veiled woman came over with a charming smile and sat beside Dustin. “Don’t you think you should thank me for solving your problem?”
“Well, they were not really a problem to me. Let’s get down to business. What’s your motive for calling me here?” Dustin asked.
“I’m just a weak lady; what kind of motives can I have? Don’t think of me so badly.” Azalea teased. “If that’s the case, tell me. Who framed Hector? And where is the killer?” Dustin cut right to the chase.
“Nothing comes for free in this world. You’ve got to pay a price if you want to know the answer to that.” Azalea stretched out her finger and stroked his chin intimately.
“What do you want?” Dustin pushed her hand away.
“Can I have you?” Azalea shot him an alluring smile.
“I’m not interested in you.” Dustin refused her, unfazed by her advances.
“You’re indeed different. There aren’t a lot of men who can resist my seduction.” She chuckled. Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Actually, I hope that you can cure my disease. I’ve witnessed your medical skills. Needless to say, they are exceptional.”
“You don’t look ill.” Dustin sized her up. Judging from her overall well–being, she seemed to be in the pink of health.
“To tell you the truth, my mentor has put a venomous curse on me. I will feel extremely terrible when it comes to the middle of the night. I hope that you can help me remove it.”
Dustin was a little surprised. “A mentor poisoning his disciple? It’s my first time hearing something like this.”
“My mentor is a person who suspects everyone. He doesn’t trust anyone but himself, so he uses the venom to control his disciples,” Azalea explained.
“I can neutralize the poison for you, but you have to first tell me who the murderer is,” Dustin said. “No can do. What if you go back on your word after I’ve told you the truth?” The world was full of danger. Azalea dared not trust anyone easily.
After a moment’s thought, Dustin agreed in the end. “Fine, I’ll remove it for you first. You’d better not come up with any tricks.”
“I’m just a weak lady. Do you think I’m capable of doing that?” Azalea rolled her eyes.
“Open your mouth,” Dustin said, not intending to waste his time talking to her anymore. Azalea lifted her veil slightly, revealing her delicate lips.
Dustin flicked a pill into her mouth with his fingers. Then, he took out a silver needle and poked it at her body a few times at lightning speed. Once the medicine began to take effect, he thrust his palm out all of a sudden and slapped her back hard.
Azalea coughed up a mouthful of black blood. A centipede that was as thick as a pinky could be seen wriggling in the pool of blood.
“Miracle doctor, you’re indeed amazing. I didn’t expect it to be settled this fast.” Azalea was overjoyed; she had never felt so relaxed before.
She carefully put the centipede aside to keep it for future use. There was a subtle connection between the venomous curse and the person who planted it. Once the centipede died, her mentor would immediately know about it.
“I’ve removed the venom. So tell me, who is the murderer?” Dustin asked calmly.
“What are you talking about?” Azalea acted like she didn’t know anything.
“How dare you trick me?” Dustin frowned, exuding a malicious mien in an instant.
“Miracle doctor, hadn’t anyone told you before that you shouldn’t simply believe a woman’s words, especially the beautiful ones?” Azalea smiled playfully.
Dustin’s expression darkened. All of a sudden, he reached out and grabbed Azalea by her neck, lifting her up from the floor. “If you aren’t telling me about it, then don’t blame me for being merciless.”
Laughing in the middle of her cough, she said, “Miracle doctor, I advise you not to act recklessly. If you get me killed, your lover, Natasha, is going to die too.”
