The Great Medical Saint (Matthew) novel Chapter 888

David staggered backward a little and plopped to the ground when he witnessed the scene. Then, Matthew turned around and locked onto David's panicked pair of eyes.

David was so scared that he yelled out, "Please don't kill me!"

Upon hearing that, Matthew stood stunned for a little. Then, he asked, "Why would I kill you?"

David was dumbfounded by his sudden question and only replied after a while, murmuring, "Don't you want the stone tablet? Don't worry. I promise I won't let anyone know about this. Really, I swear! I'll keep my mouth shut about this."

Matthew thought about it and said, "You don't have to keep this a secret because I'm going to call the police."

David became a little puzzled when he heard those words. "Why would you call the police?"

Matthew then slowly responded, "Well, the stone tablet is a national heritage, so this is a grave issue. I can't just ignore it and not call the police."

David's face turned pale as he listened to what Matthew said.

If the stone tablet was considered a national heritage, didn't it mean that he was involved in stealing a national heritage? After all, he was the one who dug up the stone tablet from Graceful Touch Church.

"How is this considered a national heritage?" David asked.

Matthew replied slowly, "How is it not? You've also seen how that Eastorian offered up to a hundred million dollars just to get his hands on it. Can't you determine its value just by its price alone?"

David was left feeling baffled, and he couldn't stop the fear that was overwhelming his entire body. If that stone tablet was truly a national heritage, that would mean his life was doomed.

Thinking about having to sit in prison while piling up his debt on his daughter made David fall into a bout of despair.

Seeing Matthew pull his phone out, David immediately dropped to the ground and begged, "Please don't call the police. Please! It wouldn't do you any good either—you killed two Eastorians!"

But Matthew shook his head slightly. "I only killed them because they not only killed our people but also tried to steal one of our national heritages. Am I wrong for trying to protect our national heritage?"

Now that Matthew wouldn't budge, David could only voice out his worries, "I'm the one who's afraid of the police. I can't be thrown into prison, please. I have a daughter at home. Don't can't call the police, I beg of you. I'm willing to do anything you want, so please just don't call the police!"
