Mysterious Mr.Richard novel Chapter 111

Elaine quickly reacted to the screaming and turned around immediately. Seeing Ella's pale face, she angrily said: "What's wrong with you? I told you to be gentle!"

"I can't." Pearl took off her gloves and threw them into the recycling bin, intending to leave. 

"Stop! I haven't allowed you to leave!" Elaine caught up to Pearl. 

Pearl continued to walk as if she didn't hear Elaine. Her eyes fell on the commotion in the emergency room. There was a man shouting and holding a knife in his hand. 

"Dr. Yonng," A nurse called out her name in panic.   

Pearl calmly said, "Inform the security guards to evacuate the crowd. Then call the police."

"Okay. Right away."

"Where is Dr. Louise?"

"He was here just now, but he seemed to have left."

"Forget it." Pearl frowned and looked around. "Guard the door so that the patients outside won't come in."

"Ok."

After Eva left, Pearl approached the man with the knife slowly. 

"You are all lousy doctors!" Obviously, the man, Ken, was intoxicated. No one knew where he came from. He was covered in mud and his face was scratched. 

"You people murdered my child and wife. You should go to hell!"

Pearl walked carefully around the edge of the hall to reach his front, trying to communicate with him. "Sir, calm down. You can tell us what happened first."

Ken instantly pointed the knife in her direction. As soon as he saw her in a white coat, his face darkened. "You are a doctor, so you should speak for the hospital!"

Pearl immediately took off her coat and threw it aside, saying calmly, "You drank too much. I am not a doctor, just a passerby."

Ken was very drunk. His feet stumbled uncertainly and his vision was blurred. He was in a trance for a while and he suddenly became puzzled. But he was still holding the knife. "If you are not a doctor, then why do you speak for them?"

"I'm actually speaking for you."

"Bullsh*t! This hospital murdered all my families!"

Pearl said in a calm tone, "If your wife and child were still alive, would they want to see you act like this? Don't you need to think about your mother who is already in her seventies. Do you want to leave her alone at home with no one to take care of her?"

The surrounding crowd had been evacuated to a relatively safe distance by the security guards. Everyone held their breath attentively. At this time, only Pearl and Ken were circling around the centre of the emergency room.

After hearing the word "mother", Ken seemed to have sobered up a bit. His dazed eyes were full of remorse and regret.

"Put down the knife. You're young, and you are perfectly healthy. You can do anything to support your mother and yourself. If you hurt someone, you'll spend the rest of your life in prison." Pearl tried to persuade him.
