Chapter 482 Avery

No sooner had Pork’s words left his mouth than Kind’s legs suddenly jerked like a frog’s, vigorouslykicking once. His body even leaped a bit. Had it not been for Daniel's anticipation and quick hold onhim, Kind's kick would likely have sent him flying off the bed.

"Uncle, how about that? Frog's kick, huh?" Daniel said cheerfully.

Irritated, Jessica reached out and twisted Daniel's waist forcefully.

"Ah!" Daniel let out a cry of pain and then took a sharp breath.

"Honey, why'd you twist me?" he asked.

"For your frog's kick! Go ahead and give me one!" she demanded, giving him a stern look andthreatening, "Idiot, if you spout nonsense again, I'll twist you to death!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. The first needle is really called 'frog's kick.' The second one I'm about touse is called 'dead fish eyes roll.' If you don’t let me proceed, then I'll just have to stop and not saveGrandpa. We’ll just leave him here to... pass."

Daniel's words had an underlying message that the perceptive Professor John immediately caughton to. He jumped into the conversation mockingly.

"You country bumpkin, you're just a little scam artist, aren't you?" scoffed the professor. "Thatneedle you stuck in earlier, this 'frog's kick,' was just stimulating the patient's nerves; you haven'tactually revived him. If you did bring him back to life, requiring vital signs to reappear, why are allthese monitor readings still showing zeros?"

Professor John’s statement was a wake-up call, snapping all those present back to their senses.Pork, who had been confused, now suddenly understood.

Professor John had declared the old man dead, and the machines were corroborating his judgment.This country boy claimed the old man wasn't gone yet, that he could actually save him? Pork surelydidn't believe Daniel’s words, convinced that this country boy must be lying, putting on some trick.

To reverse the embarrassment of his earlier defeat, Pork allowed himself a cold chuckle. "Heh," hesneered condescendingly. "Country boy, you’re bringing your village tricks here, thinking we theMatthews are fools? Let me tell you, my aunt is the smartest woman in the world; you can't deceiveher! Disrespecting her father's body in her presence, she won’t let you off lightly!"

Pork, cunning as he was, deliberately brought Avery into the mix. He was attempting to use Avery totackle Daniel!

Although Avery realized her nephew was up to no good, she felt the need to defend her dignity. Shefrowned and turned to Daniel.

"Country boy, didn't you say you could revive him? What’s going on then? Why are all the numberson the monitor still zero? And the lines, why are they all flat without any waves?"

"Mom, don’t panic! You women always get anxious so easily. I've only done the first needle; Ihaven't even started the second one yet! There are seven needles in The Seven Dragon DivineNeedles technique. After all seven are inserted, I assure you Grandpa will quickly regain his health!"

"Dead fish eyes roll? You despicable thing, if you disrespect the old man again, I’ll do more thantwist you!"
