My Plot Hole System - Chapter 19
Long Tian served the food, and as everyone took a bite, the flavours burst out and danced on their taste buds. They were mesmerised by the taste, this feeling was amazing, it was as if they were in the Tang Dynasty period and were attending an Imperial Feast.
“Delish!”
“Amazing!”
“Souma Yuki****!”
All kinds of exclamations could be heard for a few minutes before a short silence filled the room. Reynold Arnault was the same, he didn’t expect much from a young chef even after his friend praised him to the heavens, but he did not expect his skills to be so good. He nodded in utter satisfaction.
At this moment, Long Tian seemed to have noticed something when they moved. So he asked,
“Mr. Statham, Mr. Arnault, did the two of you work in the Army?”
Seemingly dazed and shocked by the question,
“Yes, The Royal Army, Cavalry Division. Both of us were squad mates and went through life and death together. But this fellow married a Fench woman and moved to France.” Mr. Statham replied.
“You seem to have an old injury, probably a tilted pelvis and stiff spine. It is not yet fixed and will be even more dangerous in the future as you grow even older.”
Mr. Statham and Mr. Arnault both trembled when they heard what Long Tian said. Of course they knew that they had an injury, but all the doctors they met said that it would need a surgery and they wouldn’t recommend it as it would cause health complications in their age.
But what shocked them was the fact that Long Tian knew what it was in a single glance. Even the best doctors took a few different tests to diagnose what is was. Somehow, in the depths of their hearts they felt that they now had hope.
“Sigh.. Yes, they happened when we were in a war. Being in the cavalry, we were asked to do all the tough jobs. Me, Arnault and another comrade of mine were operating a Tank, it was all good at first but then the enemy had reinforcements, our Tank was barraged with bullets and was almost hit by a missile. The Tank literally collapsed and we were buried unconscious until the Infantry dug us out, to our surprise, our third Comrade took the heaviest damage, he was above us and the metal scraps pierced him. Just to save us… He is now paralysed and we have some injuries too.”
Mr. Statham said with grief on his face while Arnault’s eyes were red.
“I can fix it.” Long Tian replied.
Everyone in the room was staring at him with wide eyes, did he just say that he can fix it? they were doubting their ears.
Qi He on the other hand panicked, ‘This fellow, won’t this bluff of his enrage and offend these two big men!’
“Long Tian, don’t….” Before Qi He could complete his sentence Mr. Statham started to speak.
“Are you sure Mr. Long ?” Mr. Statham asked. He could feel that this guy was not simple, because he could figure out their condition in a single glance.
Long Tian simply nodded his head.
“Please lie down on your front and let me operate on your back. It’s very simple to fix.”
Both Mr. Statham and Mr. Arnault’s eyes widened after hearing what Long Tian said. This is simple to fix?
Mr. Statham did as Long Tian said and Long Tian started to gently massage his back.
“This might hurt a little Mr. Statham, so brace yourself.” said Long Tian and continued what he was doing.
Long Tian then tightly gripped Mr. Statham’s waist and forcibly pushed the Pelvis back to it’s position he did the same with the spine, few loud and scary cracks sounded inside the room. Everyone was silent, some had anticipation in their eyes while others had fear.
Mr. Statham gritted his teeth, his eyes were red from the pain, Long Tian gave his back and waist a soothing massage to dissipate the pain.
Mr. Statham got up and tried to stretch. To his disbelief, he could freely stretch, his entire body shook with excitement. Mr. Statham then performed a few combat moves in the air, seeing the freely moving Mr. Statham, everyone was shocked, but the one with the most shock was Mr. Arnualt, he knew how tough it was for the both of them to even stand straight, it would hurt like hell. But now, his buddy can even perform combat moves, this was like witnessing a miracle.
“Thank You, Mr. Long, I am very grateful, I can finally play with my grandchildren thanks to you!” Mr. Statham said with utmost gratitude.
Long Tian nodded and then fixed Mr. Arnault’s bones. They both thanked Long Tian and gave him their personal numbers. What Mr. Statham gave Long Tian before was his personal number too, but it was for business, what they gave now was the kind of number you give your family.
Qi He & Co. were lost for words, ‘what happened just now? is this the same world I live in? is this a dream?’ these were the thoughts running amok in their heads.
“This might be shameless of me to ask, but can you also cure my third Comrade, my sworn brother who saved my life. The doctors say it’s complicated to cure him.” Mr. Statham asked Long Tian.
“Haha.. My attainments in medicine are not so high as to just treat a patient without looking at him Mr. Statham.” Long Tian replied.
Mr. Statham felt embarrassed, Long Tian did not even see the patient in question but he already asked him if the patient can be cured. Thinking about his mistake, he felt silly.
“But, I promise I’ll see him when I visit Country B.” Long Tian said.
Mr. Statham and Mr. Arnault looked at each other and a bright smile appeared on their face. This young man in front of them can cure their ailments with a simple massage when the best of the Doctors said it needed a complicated surgery. This young man is a genius! this was the only thought in their minds.
Mr. Statham and Mr. Arnault soon left by themselves, there were only Long Tian, Qi He and Xiao Hao left.
“You.. You’re a Doctor?” Qi He asked Long Tian with a curious yet admiring look in his eyes.
“I have a few minor attainments.” Long Tian said humbly.
“Give me your Phone number.” Qi He said, looking at him in a weird manner.
“Don’t tell me, you have a daughter!?” Long Tian panicked that Qi He was trying to match make and asked.
“Of course not!” replied Qi He.
With a sigh of relief, Long Tian gave him his number and lifted the cup of tea in front and started to enjoy it.
“Nice Tea!” said Long Tian.
“I don’t have a daughter, but I do have a niece.” Qi He said with a sly and wicked smile.
The tasty Tea in Long Tian’s mouth seemed to have turned sour. He spat it out at once.
Qi He and Xiao Hao burst out laughing. They then went to drop Long Tian off at the airport.
