The Lin family's little boy returns to being eight years old, taking his family to new heights.
Chapter 25 Exposing the Scam 2
Seeing that Lin Guiying had managed to grab the first bed but was still standing there pestering the master, the people below shouted, "Come down quickly! We want to buy more."
"Hey, what's wrong with you, old man? Why are you poking at me like that?"
Grandma Liu also said, "Granddaughter, don't pull me anymore. I have to buy this bed today. Look, even your Grandma Lin bought it." Seeing that the people below could hardly stop her, Lin Xi looked directly at the master and said, "I have a few questions for you."
The man frowned. How could this young girl be so tactless? He said impatiently, "I'm busy right now. Let's talk about it after everyone has bought their beds."
"I'm asking this question on behalf of everyone: what if this bed doesn't work?"
The people below quieted down; they also wanted to know what to do if it didn't work.
The master immediately said, "Of course it won't work. Anyway, we'll leave once we've sold them all, and you won't be able to find me."
The other two men next to him stared at him with wide eyes.
Is this something you can just say out loud? We haven't even finished collecting the money yet! ...
The man realized what he had said and quickly shut his mouth.
What happened? Why did he tell the truth?
Lin Xi then asked, "Can this bed cure illnesses?"
The master blurted out, "What kind of illness are you trying to cure? It'll be good enough if you don't electrocute someone."
What happened? He just couldn't control his mouth. Why did he blurt out his true feelings?
The other two men quickly covered his mouth. "Has he gone mad?"
Lin Xi looked at the villagers below the stage, who were dumbfounded, and asked again, "Then why did you say you could cure diseases?"
The master decided not to say a word this time, keeping his mouth tightly shut, but he suddenly felt short of breath, as if a force was forcing him to speak.
Finally, unable to resist his physical instincts, he said, "If I don't say it like that, how can I swindle your money?"
The other two men had already resigned themselves to their fate. Oh well, let him say whatever he wants. At worst, they'd just not earn any money today and would have made a wasted trip.
The man realized he couldn't control his mouth at all, and seeing that things had come to this point, he decided to just give up and do whatever he wanted.
"Who told you to be so stupid? You believe everything I say. Even the old men and women in the city don't believe me anymore, so I came to your rural area to see for myself. I didn't expect you to be so foolish and rich."
"They look so rich despite their tattered clothes. I was worried I wouldn't be able to sell a single one."
From the moment the man spoke the truth, the people below stared wide-eyed at the master on the stage, as if struck by lightning.
That master they once thought could bring them hope and cure their illnesses.
So that's how it is! It was all a lie!
"My son is right, you guys really are liars, you almost swindled me out of my life savings!"
"You big liar, this is money I scraped together from all over the place!"
……
The villagers rushed onto the stage in a frenzy, looking like they were about to beat someone up.
Lin Guojun stopped trying to stop him. "Let's fight! We should beat this damned bastard to death!"
Lin Xi also pulled her grandmother away.
They can't be killed anyway, so they deserve to suffer.
Although they didn't manage to swindle any money, they did rob the villagers of their hope for medical treatment.
The villagers surrounded the three men, beating and cursing them at the same time.
Grandma Liu beat him the hardest. His back no longer hurt, so he took off his shoes, grabbed the soles, and started hitting his head with them.
"You shameless bastard! I almost broke up with my son over this little bit of money! I'll beat you to death!"
……
Although they were all elderly men and women, they had worked in the fields for a long time and were quite strong. They beat the three men until they were bruised and swollen.
The master finally broke through the encirclement and tried to escape.
Lin Xi saw it immediately and shouted, "Dad, he's going to run away!"
At this moment, Lin Dayuan darted out from the bushes beside him, followed by several policemen.
Upon seeing the police, the master panicked and desperately tried to escape into the car.
But it was too late.
A policeman ran up to him and pinned him to the ground.
It was Yan Feng, the policeman who took Lin Xi's statement during the previous medical dispute.
The other two police officers also detained the two accomplices, whose faces were completely disfigured.
The group felt utterly devastated.
The two accomplices glared angrily at the man spouting nonsense. It was all his fault; if he wanted to die, he shouldn't have dragged them down with him!
If he hadn't also been beaten up, they would have both suspected that the man was an undercover police officer.
Yan Feng reached into the man's pocket, took out the money, and returned it to Lin Xi.
"Little girl, it's been a long time."
"Haha, Uncle, let's not see each other too often, it's never a good thing when we do," Lin Xi said with a laugh.
"Uncle, you saw the whole thing, right? He admitted to the fraud himself, and the money went into his pocket."
"Little girl, how do you know all this?"
"Hehe, I read it in a book. If you don't receive money, it doesn't constitute fraud."
Yan Feng looked at Lin Dayuan meaningfully, "Your daughter is very outstanding, you should nurture her well."
Lin's father took it as a compliment from the police and didn't think much of it.
With Lin Dayuan's permission, he called Lin Xi aside and asked bluntly, "May I know what method you used to get him to tell the truth?"
He could see it clearly: the little girl's questions were direct and straightforward, without any rhetoric, and the situation at hand made it impossible to offer any psychological suggestions.
But the man's face was flushed red, as if he would die if he didn't speak. The only suspicious thing was that he drank a bowl of water. What kind of method was that?
"Uncle, I can't tell you, but I can promise you I won't do anything illegal or criminal."
Hearing her say that, Yan Feng didn't press for details, but he had some more to think about.
There are many extraordinary people in this world. They are a double-edged sword; they can take on a hundred criminals and severely injure them, but they can also easily harm ordinary people.
Lin Xi pretended not to notice the police's suspicions and specifically reminded them to hurry up with the interrogation, asking where the bed came from, where the hideout was, and that they definitely had other accomplices.
After all, the Truth Plum Candy was still expiring, and it cost 1500 Love Coins, which had emptied her savings. She couldn't let it go to waste.
Yan Feng's eyes deepened. Could she have thought of this? Is this the kind of thinking an eight-year-old should have?
If she weren't so young, he really wanted to take her back to the police station. If such a promising child isn't properly nurtured, she might go astray, and the police would have a hard time finding any fault with her.
However, judging from these two incidents, she is a warm-hearted and kind child.
I'll probably have to pay more attention to this company in the future...
The police escorted the prisoner away, and the operation to rescue the villagers came to a perfect end.
The villagers remained gathered together and did not leave.
Some were loudly cursing the men, while others sat on the ground in a daze.
Lin Xi looked at the villagers and felt a pang of heartache. What had they done wrong? They just wanted to get treatment; they were just in so much pain.
They're not stupid, they're just simple and honest.
She walked firmly onto the podium, her clear voice ringing out throughout the hall, "Grandpas and grandmas, there is nothing in this world that can cure all diseases. Our current medical level is not yet at that level."
If you encounter this situation again, please do not believe it.
I know that some of you are unable to get better with medication, and some are not candidates for surgery. Although I am young and don't know much, I think you could consider consulting a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. After all, our traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for thousands of years, and it must have its reasons. In the past, there were no hospitals or Western medicine; our ancestors treated illnesses with traditional Chinese medicine.
Of course, there are also many quacks in traditional Chinese medicine these days, so everyone must remain vigilant.
I want to share some tips on how to avoid being scammed.
First, before taking your pulse, you can keep your physical condition a secret. If the symptoms he describes match yours, then you can elaborate.
Secondly, you can try taking one or two doses of the medicine first, and if you feel it is effective, then continue to buy it.
Third, most traditional Chinese medicines are not expensive to produce. If he asks for a very high price, please think carefully.
After Lin Xi finished speaking, enthusiastic applause rang out.
The villagers' previous feelings of being deceived vanished. They are simple-minded; as long as they are given hope, they can grow towards the sun.
Lin Dayuan looked at his daughter with pride, while Lin Guojun said directly to the old man next to him, "Look, look, this is my granddaughter."
Lin Jing thought that she wanted to be like her little sister Xiao Xi in the future.
