The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Man Proposes, Heaven Disposes

The young man with a sly look was taken aback by the question, but he responded quickly: ”I... I just can’t stand these rich people!”

”If it’s none of your business, keep your mouth shut!” Lin Tian, half a head taller than the other person, spoke with great momentum.

The young man with a sly look licked his dry lips, glanced at the middle-aged woman sitting on the ground, then stepped aside without saying another word.

”How much do you want?” Lin Tian looked at the middle-aged woman.

Since she refused to go to the hospital and was making things difficult for Bai Shishi, it was clear she just wanted money.

”I’m not talking to you, it’s none of your business!” The middle-aged woman glared fiercely at Lin Tian.

”Boss,” Lin Tian mouthed the words, giving Bai Shishi a look: ”Go ask her!”

Bai Shishi sighed heavily, knowing she was being extorted today, so she decided to pay up to avoid further trouble: ”How much do you want?”

”Fifty thousand!” The middle-aged woman demanded exorbitantly. Leaving aside how injured the middle-aged man was, asking for fifty thousand right away was ruthless!

Bai Shishi was obviously startled by this astronomical figure. She had thought of paying a little to settle things, but it was clear the woman intended to extort her heavily: ”Impossible!”

”Impossible? My husband is nearly dead from being hit, we have four kids, don’t they need money for food and school? Asking for fifty thousand is already merciful!” The middle-aged woman fluently explained why she needed so much money.

Lin Tian originally thought Bai Shishi could offer one to two thousand yuan to avoid trouble. After all, whether it was a real or fake accident, pedestrians are the weaker party; even if the other party ran a red light, you’d still bear some responsibility for hitting them.

But when she asked for a hundred thousand, Lin Tian found it amusing. The middle-aged man had clearly sneaked a few glances at him, proving he wasn’t severely injured, yet the woman demanded such a sum. This could mean only one thing.

Scammers, this pair of middle-aged couple and the sly young man were an obnoxious scam ring.

”A hundred thousand is a bit much. Why don’t you take your husband to the hospital to get checked, and then see how much medical expense is required,” finally, someone in the crowd couldn’t hold back and chimed in.

”Yeah, go to the hospital and have a check-up. It’s best if there’s nothing serious; don’t waste time here!”

People in the crowd started persuading the middle-aged woman to take her husband to the hospital, with some kind-hearted individuals already calling for an ambulance.

The sly young man, who had been lurking aside enjoying the show, saw the crowd starting to waver and pondered his next move.

As time ticked by, Bai Shishi kept glancing at her watch and sighed helplessly, resigned to her bad luck: ”Will ten thousand do?”

Saying this, Bai Shishi took out a wad of red bills from her red handbag.

”Ten thousand? Are you treating me like a beggar? You think you can leave with ten thousand? Dream on!” The sly young man seized the opportunity to shout loudly.

Earlier, there were people in the crowd speaking up for Bai Shishi, but this exclamation shifted the momentum again.

”Hey, what exactly do you people want?” Lin Tian watched the middle-aged woman and the sly young man perform their duet and asked again.

”Give me a hundred thousand, and you can go!” The middle-aged woman shouted with tearful indignation.

Damn it, Lin Tian became increasingly angry; this group of scammers were obviously repeat offenders, rogue to a certain level.

”Are you sure?” Lin Tian was ready to go all out today.

If you act shamelessly, I’ll do the same; let’s see who crosses the line first.

”Hitting someone and paying is justified!” The middle-aged woman said with righteous indignation.

”Alright ~ !” Lin Tian swore internally: ”I’ll make sure you don’t get a penny today!”

”What should we do?” While Lin Tian was fuming, Bai Shishi came over for help.

Seeing so many people helping the middle-aged woman, she could only seek Lin Tian’s opinion.

”Just stand back and watch!” Lin Tian muttered quietly, his eyes on the middle-aged man lying on the car hood.

Lin Tian had usually seen through clothes and playing cards, but he had never tried to see through a person.

Today he would try and see if his eyes could penetrate a person, to see their dirty heart.

His dark eyes fell upon the middle-aged man, watching as the clothes on his body quickly disappeared, revealing the unscathed skin, until the image froze.

”Can people not be seen through?” Lin Tian wondered, his eyes wide.

The frozen image suddenly shifted, and a terrifying scene unfolded before his eyes.

Minute pores, blood vessels, internal organs, and skeletons were all vividly clear, even the diseased organs stood out.

”I can see through!” Lin Tian was a bit surprised; he wouldn’t need to do anything else in the future, just open a hospital specializing in diagnostics, and he’d have endless money.

Sweeping over the middle-aged man’s body, Lin Tian found no bruises on his soft tissues.

Instead, he saw a black substance near his heart, causing the unrestricted capillaries to become clogged.

After seeing all this, Lin Tian’s eyes returned to normal, and he walked towards the middle-aged man lying on the ground.

”Hey, buddy!” Lin Tian patted the middle-aged man’s arm.

”What are you doing, don’t touch my husband!” The middle-aged woman reached for Lin Tian with both hands.

Lin Tian grabbed her hands and said to the man lying on the car hood, ”Stop pretending, I can see through it!”

”Help, someone’s being bullied in broad daylight!” the woman screamed.

”Let go!” The sly young man immediately approached.

”You’ve done too much evil in your life; I advise you to go to the hospital and check your heart!” This was the first time Lin Tian had seen through a person’s body. He wasn’t sure what the black substance in the heart was, but it was definitely a sign of disease.

”Kid, don’t meddle, or you’ll pay dearly!” The middle-aged man warned without opening his eyes.

”Don’t try to scare me; I’ve never been scared easily. Listen to me and go to the hospital for a check-up. Heaven watches what man does, and justice will prevail!”

”People like you won’t live long!” Lin Tian sneered.

”Where’s the injured person?” At this moment, the crowd parted, and two nurses hurried in with a stretcher.

”Here!” Lin Tian waved to the nurses.

”We’ll discuss everything at the hospital!” With the ambulance arriving, Lin Tian didn’t believe the middle-aged man would continue lying here, as it would be a clear sign of a scam.

As expected, the middle-aged man was lifted onto the stretcher with the help of the woman and the sly young man. Bai Shishi was also asked to get into the ambulance, with Lin Tian accompanying her...
