《Physician’s Odyssey》Chapter 615 - Bloodbath in the Forbidden District
Advertisement
As it started to drizzle, the vehicles on the street began to lessen, and this had also saved them time. Initially, Chen Guang was the one driving, but Xia Yu replaced him in the end. Chen Guang immediately realised that it was a wise act. His Volkswagen Bra drove past its limit. At this moment, they’re no in the position to worry about the speed limit in the city. Watching as the scenery flashed by, Chen Guang only hoped that they could go faster.
When they finally reached Pagoda Street, the three of them stopped the car by the roadside, and Liu Jianwei knitted his brows together. He subconsciously looked around and noticed that the windows were opened, with heads popping out, looking at them as prey.
“There’s something amiss with the people here!” Liu Jianwei bent down and pulled out a knife.
Chen Guang could feel his scalp tingling since he knew that it would be carnage. But thinking about his daughter, he mustered his courage and continued to follow behind Liu Jianwei.
Xia Yu also threw his cigarette away and drew out a baton, cautiously looking around.
All of a sudden, laughter rang out from the right alley and an African man with a tiger tattoo on his arm walked out with a metal bar and a group of African men behind him.
The reason why Pagoda Street was known as the Forbidden District was due to the fact that there were many Africans who lived here, and they’ve formed a local triad. It’s a violent district akin to Chicago’s 13th District. Even if the government interfered in this matter, they could only try their best to control the triad and reach a balance.
The leading African man yelled, which sparked a burst of laughter from the group behind. When the shops by the roadside smelled something amiss, they immediately packed up and closed.
Liu Jianwei wore a sinister smile, to which he strode towards an African man. That man wore a singlet with bulged muscles. However, it only took an instant for Liu Jianwei to slice the metal bar in his hand into two. But just when the African man wanted to go all out against Liu Jianwei, he suffered a kick to his chest with one of his arms amputated.
As the African man cried out in pain on the floor, all the other African men were instantly intimidated by Liu Jianwei’s brutality, taking a few steps back.
At the same time, the killing intent on Liu Jianwei soared. When Chen Guang saw the amputated arm on the ground, he held his mouth and started vomiting. He finally knew why the three of them were so confident in rescuing his daughter. It turnED out that they wouldn’t even blink an eye about killing.

If it was in another location, Liu Jianwei might go lenient. However, he was familiar with Pagoda Street, and it’s a place not under the government’s control. All the Africans here were practically illegal immigrants and they would wander around the city at night to commit crimes.
So even if you injure them, they wouldn’t dare to call the cops since they were unregistered residents, so they’re not under the protection of China’s laws. At the same time, the government also greatly detested them and hoped that they could fight amongst themselves.
In just a move, Liu Jianwei chopped off the arm of one of them. After the other African men calmed down, one of them roared, to which all of them charged forth together.
But before they even managed to get close to Liu Jianwei, five silhouettes flashed out with Bassoon in the lead. He led the team that he brought from Thailand to obstruct the African men, and they’ve all been trained. They might not be comparable to Liu Jianwei, nor did they have the physique of African men, but their conviction was terrifying.
In their eyes, Su Tao was their new Venerable Father, and their lives were given to them by Su Tao. As long as Su Tao gave the order, they could lay down their lives for him at any time. After receiving the Venerable Father’s brainwashing since young, it wouldn’t be easy to change their worldly concept. The only method was to guide them, and this was also Bassoon and Nida’s strategy, which was progressing pretty well.
These African men traveled from afar to China in hopes of becoming rich. They might have fought often, but they definitely did not want to throw their lives here to fight with Bassoon’s team. Hence, they lacked the courage to press forth.
In a blink of an eye, ten-odd African men were lying on the ground, while Bassoon’s team suffered no casualties.
Seeing that Bassoon’s team had successfully controlled this group of African men, Su Tao paid attention to the house plate and said, “We still have to continue forth. Leave these people to them.”
Once the four of them continued pressing forth, Su Tao finally found the right house and said, “Be cautious. The enemy must be inside.”
Liu Jianwei strode forth upon acknowledging and kicked apart the door before he swiftly went up. They searched every room, but they were disappointed since they failed to find Chen Guang’s daughter. Letting out a sigh, Su Tao felt something was amiss. The other party must have noticed their tracks and prepared in advance. Otherwise, those African men wouldn’t have come to block their path.

Searching through the rooms, they finally came into one. Su Tao wore a grave expression and looked at the bandages on the table. Turning to Chen Guang, he asked, “Are you sure that they have already hurt your daughter?”
Nodding his head, Chen Guang replied with rage, “My daughter has a deep cut on her thigh, so I have to find her immediately!”
As Su Tao sighed, he poured out the content from the dustbin on the ground. The bandages at the bottom were all covered in blood so he said, “Your daughter stayed here!”
“Then, where is she now? Can it be that something happened to her?” Chen Guang instantly became nervous as his face twitched.
“If something happened to her, they wouldn't bring her away with them.” Su Tao analysed and continued, “They must have just left recently, and those African men are buying them time!”
Nodding his head, Xia Yu asked, “What should we do now?”
“Let’s go down first!” Su Tao sighed.
When they returned from the path they came, those Africans in the room looked at the four of them. Although their eyes were burning with rage, they did not dare to act rashly. They knew that the three of them were skilled, and they’re definitely not ordinary people to dare to cause trouble in the Forbidden District.
As Su Tao walked out last, he suddenly stepped to the side and threw a jab to his right. Suddenly, the one that was about to assault him exclaimed and was caught by surprise, to which Su Tao continued to launch blows over.
Su Tao had a sensitive nose. Although the air in the room earlier was murky, he still caught onto a stench of blood, so he determined that Chen Guang’s daughter must still be hidden here. But if he got Liu Jianwei to search all the rooms, the kidnappers might hurt the hostage in panic.
Hence, Su Tao used retreat as a form of an advance. He guessed that the other party must be trying to catch him off guard, so he purposely revealed an opening. In the end, everything went according to his plan. The instant Su Tao lashed out, he unleashed his endless fury, catching Medusa by surprise.
Medusa groaned and felt stuffy in her chest. The two earlier jabs from Su Tao struck her chest, and the other party was definitely not someone who would go lenient on her after seeing that she’s a woman.
Su Tao maintained a gentlemanly image to most women, but the instant he saw Medusa, he instantly recognised that it was this person who murdered He Yu. Facing such a cold-blooded killer, he’s not foolish enough to judge her by her appearance.
When Xia Yu and Liu Jianwei heard the commotion, they did not immediately go up and help Su Tao since the pathway was too narrow. At the same time, they were confident in Su Tao.
After a few days of training from Yan Wujin, Su Tao was currently putting what he learned into practice. At this moment, he felt that all of Medusa’s moves were so easy to dodge, and her movements were filled with openings. The reason why he managed to connect his blows to Medusa’s ribs was that she had too many flaws. Perhaps as a woman, she wouldn’t often need to go head-to-head with her enemies, so she subconsciously formed a bad habit of not guarding herself.
This is not a good habit! In Su Tao’s eyes, those weren’t only flaws, but they’re also lethal spots!
Receiving another strike to her ribs, Medusa’s face was ash pale. It had been a long time since she felt such pain and fear. At this moment, she was no longer that confident, and she was worried that she might be captured.
She regretted this moment. She should have heeded the instructions and left this place, and not try to catch Su Tao’s group by surprise.
Since her first move was a mistake, she had to correct it now. Hence, she started to retreat, and at the same time, she started to plan a route to escape. But it was a pity that both Liu Jianwei and Xia Yu were cunning people, so they quickly took two positions to block her path of retreat, the staircase, and window.
Without a choice, Medusa could only bite on her lips and pounce at Su Tao.
But it was a pity. She suffered another surge of pain from her ribs. Su Tao’s fists were akin to hammers that struck on her ribs. He then lashed out a roundhouse kick. The kick hit Medusa’s chin, to which a mouthful of blood gushed out from her mouth, and she collapsed on the ground.
Su Tao knew that Medusa was powerless to fight right now. He immediately rushed into the room from before, and a moment later, a girl’s sobbing resounded. At the same time, Chen Guang also reacted and knew that his daughter was finally saved.
Walking over to Medusa, Xia Yu used a military-grade rope to tie her up. As he subconsciously looked at Medusa’s bruised ribs, he inwardly sighed. Su Tao was too ruthless, and her initially flat chest was basically swollen!

Remorse
I have killed many people over my long life. Men, women, children. None have escaped the shadows that I control. It was only one tiny mistake that I made that changed my life forever. I underestimated her, and I would pay for my hubris. “For every death you have given, you will feel their pain.” What? “For every person you have killed, you will feel regret.” Wait, wait… “For every murder you have commited, you will know what you have done.” I don’t think this is going to be pretty. The power leaves her voice as she continues in a softer tone. “I will give you back what you have lost, you will feel empathy again.” Her power releases me and I fall to the ground. Diana. That was her name. I will remember it. ******** This story starts out somewhat dark, but it will lighten up after the first chapter. I tend to not enjoy the psychological tag too much since stories with the tag tend to be a little insane for my liking, but I feel that I would be remiss not putting it on this story, since a lot of it is about the psychology of the main character. All the content warnings are checked since I want to leave my options open to me for the future. I hope you enjoy.
