Chapter 62: Zhou Shan.

As Qin Qianyu and Baobao sang, an angry voice sounded out from the stall.

Chen Yongqing flinched, Qin Qianyu noticed this as she looked towards the voice.

"Who dares to mock my school!? Stay where you are if you have the guts!"

A slightly chubby man came out, as soon as he saw Qin Qianyu his face changed.

Qin Qianyu saw this changed and frowned. But then she followed his line of sight.

"He's looking at Baobao!"

Qin Qianyu instinctively took a step backwards

However, the man started bobbing up and down as he soon joined in and started singing along with Baobao.

Then he stopped and pointed

"Cao Guangyi! Why are you here!"

"Ah! Fatty Liang! I lost daddy! Big sister here is helping me. Ah and him. He needs a sign so people would stop hitting him."

Relief came over Qin Qianyu as she realised the man wasn't a threat. The chubby man took out his phone and made a call.

After the call ended, the chubby man grabbed a pouch and told Chen Yongqing to man the stall till he got back.

He asked Qin Qianyu to bring Cao Guangyi and follow him.

"What's happened?"

Qin Qianyu couldn't help but ask,

"While dr Cao was searching for his son he came across a woman in need of medical assistance."

Qin Qianyu nodded and followed the man.

"Big sister that's my daddy!"

Cao Guangyi called out from above.

Qin Qianyu saw the person that Dr Cao was attending to and frowned. It was the girl that was with Chen Yongqing.

"She was fine only a while ago, how'd she get to this state?"

"Oh! Yifei!? What happened to her?"

The chubby man mumbled as he neared the scene.

"Teacher Mu thanks for finding my son,"

"Heh! You're thanking the wrong person. Please thank the girl instead."

Dr Cao looked to Qin Qianyu. He then turned his attention to his son sitting on her shoulders and the sign on the balloon.

His lips twitched but it quickly turned into a warm smile as thanked Qin Qianyu.

Teacher Mu asked about the situation. Dr Cao had bumped into the girl while looking for his son, she tagged along wanting to help then she collapsed and here they are.

Although Cao Guangyi's father is a Doctor, he's a doctor of pharmacology not a physician.

He could only offer standard first aid while they waited for medical personnel to arrive.

Qin Qianyu noticed the girl wasn't fairing to well and could take a turn for the worse at any minute now. She alerted teacher Mu to this and made a suggestion.

"Teacher Mu, how about doing a three point draw?"

Teacher Mu was extremely surprised to hear the suggestion Qin Qianyu made.

It was because this technique was considered an advanced move and not too many people knew about it even in TCM circles.

"Huh? Are you a practitioner little girl?"

"No, I just know some things, nothing much."

"But that only works if she's been poisoned, it seems she had a reaction to something, it could be an allergy though."

"Don't you have a silver needle? Test her drink."

Teacher Mu nodded and tested the half drink that lay on the ground next to her. After a while the needle changed and so did teacher Mu's face.

"It's poisoned!"

Gasping sounds and exclamations escaped the people rubbernecking around the scene. Suddenly a girl shrieked and held out the same beverage in horror.

Teacher Mu enquired about the drink and tested it with another silver needle.

"I bought it from a stall making fresh fruit drinks over there. There're promoting essential vitamins."

Teacher Mu nodded as he listened and tested at the same time.

"You don't have to worry, it's perfectly safe."

"What does that mean?"

Someone in the crowd asked. Soon it turned into a discussion that TCM techniques were all bogus and that the earlier claim made was just for show and to scare ignorant people.

"See, it's true! Those TCM people are so stuck in their old ways! This is SIC! Get with the times already!"

Qin Qianyu recognised the voice of the one leading all the naysayers, it belonged to one of the people that had attacked Chen Yongqing.

"Really!? . . That's the analysis you came up with!? Has it not occurred to you that this may have been a deliberate and targeted attack?"

Qin Qianyu huffed and stated after hearing everyone discussing Teacher Mu's methods.

"What do you know!? Why would someone attack just her!? Seems like you're just trying to deflect the fact that TCM is utter bullshit."

"What do I know? . . Why would someone attacker her? . . Wouldn't you know better than us?"

"What nonsense are you spouting!?"

Nonsense!? Well, seeing it was you and your three friends there that had attacked her and her friend earlier how could it be nonsense?"

"Shut your mouth! How do you know it was us!?"

Qin Qianyu smirked and gave a slight chuckle,

She said nothing and just simply pointed in a certain direction and everyone followed. They all understood when they saw the security cameras.

"Bullshit we already checked! there were no cameras there!"

"Pfft! Big sister that uncle should've checked if he brought his brain."

The people in the crowd were all thinking the same thing,

"How dumb did you have to be to blurt out something like that after being accused!"

"Shut up you little shit!,"

With that said, the frustration had spilled over and the young man swung out at Qin Qianyu.

She just stepped to the side then with a slight tap of her foot, she hit the man behind the back of his knee.

The forward momentum of his punch coupled with his knee buckling under him caused the young man to slam face first into the ground.

"How dare you attack me!? Do you know who I am!?"

Qin Qianyu shook her head and answered his question with a question of her own,

"Do you know who I am?"

"No! No idea! It's not like I care anyway."

The young man shouted back at Qin Qianyu in anger. She just shrugged her shoulders,

"Well that makes us both even then!"

"You attacked me! You won't get away with this!"

Qin Qianyu couldn't believe what this guy was saying and doing.

"Did this guy actually shit his brains out this morning? How is there anyone this stupid?"

She asked herself before answering the young man.

"You attacked another person, then you attack someone's profession, then you attack me while I have a child on my shoulders . . And . . you're . . the victim!?"

"You've seem to have forgotten what I pointed out to you earlier, not to mention all of these people here. I . . I mean, . . really guy!?"

" . . . "

The young man's friends picked him up and they quickly left the area. Qin Qianyu had no intention to go after them as the situation with Yifei had gotten worse and paramedics hadn't arrived yet.

While Qin Qianyu was dealing with the mouthy young man and his tantrum, teacher Mu had already started the three point draw.

Soon the girl coughed up a pinkish red foamy substance. This was the reaction to whatever the drink was spiked with and her own body.

"The bubbles are from her lungs! Teacher Mu there's blood in her lungs! We need to support her respiratory channels."

Qin Qianyu put Cao Guangyi down and came along side teacher Mu.

It had gotten serious now, blood was in her lungs.

Qin Qianyu sat the girl up and raised her arms above her head and soon the girls entire body started convulsing.

She placed a hand on Yifei's back and could feel her heart beating way too fast.

"She's in distress!"

Qin Qianyu immediately started doing the slow heart technique. Teacher Mu was impressed.

This calmed the girls heart and Qin Qianyu then started another massaging technique while he continued with the three point draw.

Soon the foaming slowed and and became thicker and soon she coughed out a solid substance.

"The blood coagulated!"

Qin Qianyu muttered. Teacher Mu was startled as the bloody blob was still reacting. It was like butter when it's in a half solid, half liquid state sizzling in a pan.

"It's whatever poison they used causing all this."

"Call the police over too, this is a criminal matter now."

Dr Cao had already done so, he was also recording the process that the two were doing so that they would have some kind of safety net and wouldn't be blamed for all that has transpired.

Everyone's concentrations were on Yifei, no one had noticed a panicking young woman lurking around before reaching out trying to take Yifei's drink.

Qin Qianyu saw this and with a quick flick of her wrist, she swiped three needles from teacher Mu's pouch and sent them flying to the hand of the girl trying to take the spiked drink.

"Argh!"

The girls arm was frozen stiff and she couldn't move it. Qin Qianyu had locked the girls arm along with both her legs.

"I don't know why you want to get involved, but that's evidence. You shouldn't touch that."

"Hey! That's the girl that serve me and made my drink!"

The girl who had her own drink tested earlier yelled.

"Look she's trying to take away the evidence of her crime!"

The paramedics came along with the a couple police officers.

The entire situation was explained and the medical team took over and rushed the girl to the hospital.

The girl started panicking, she broke down and confessed to being apart of what happened but claimed that a senior and his friends had spiked the girls drink saying it would only give her a case of diarrhoea.

"Please, I'm so sorry, i didn't know this would happen, it was just a prank. Senior Zhou said it's traditional to go after people from Renshi and make them know whose top dog."

"Top dog!?"

Qin Qianyu asked. Teacher Mu explained the rivalry between Zhishi and Renshi University but it mostly consisted for Zhishi students dogging and bullying Renshi students.

"They've taken things a little too far this time."

Qin Qianyu was a little shocked to hear this. When she was at Zhishi she didn't see any of that.

"Maybe I would have if I didn't only have Song Zhaoge in my damn eyes."

As things started to settle down, the girl in police custody called and pointed out the four from earlier,

"That's them, they're the ones that spiked the girl's drink. It was him, Senior Zhou."

"No wonder they tried to dismiss that man and his TCM skills, it was to try and hide the fact that they had poisoned another person."

"How evil! . . They should all go to jail."

The crowd spoke animatedly. Those four were quickly rounded up.

"You stupid bitch! Why the hell did you open your damn mouth for! Are you an idiot!?"

All four of them had something to say to their junior, and it all went along the same line.

Soon another person joined the commotion,

"What's going on here!? unhand my son this instant!"

The middle aged man that arrived was Senior Zhou's father, Professor Zhou Shen.

Qin Qianyu recognised this man, he was a senior member of faculty at Zhishi and also the head of the medical sciences department.

She didn't have much interactions with him and had little to no impression of the man in her former life. She had never heard of his son either when she was there. She though that he must had already graduated by then.

"You! fatty! Is this your doing!?"

" . . . "

"Hey! Dog! . . When the master speaks the dog barks!"

Senior Zhou spat out at Teacher Mu.

"If that girl dies because of what you people did, we'll be seeing who the real dog will be!"

Teacher Mu replied. This shut the young man up in a hurry.

Prof. Zhou was given an explanation by the police, and then his face dropped as he heard of all the things his son was being accused of doing.

"Father it was all just a prank, they're the ones making it out to be more than it really is. It's not serious at all, it's them and that bitch there."

He shouted out even pointing out Qin Qianyu in the process.

Zhou Shen looked Qin Qianyu over and noticed the participants lanyard around her neck, he scoffed thinking that she was part of Renshi's challenging team for the University games section of SIC.

He had no idea that she was participating in SIC's main competition.

"Officer, as you can see it was just a harmless prank between students nothing more. There's no real harm here. Let's not blow things out of proportion here."

"That's not it! Look here!"

Qin Qianyu stated as she pointed out to the coagulated blob of blood. It was still sizzling even now,

"You want to call that harmless!? There's still half her drink here, want to give this harmless prank of a drink to your son and his friends? It'll prove you, your son and his friends right you know!?"
