1021 Are You Sure?

 "A fraud?" Chen Xiaobei snapped, "Mr. Amasa invited me. Who are you? Which dump did you come from? Do even have a place to speak here?"

 "What the f*ck! I am Japan Minren Prince, Nikkawa Susumu! He is Akira Chon Prince, Nikkawa Kyohachi! Where the hell did you come from? You look like a stray dog! Where are your manners?!" the chubby one said.

The skinny stood aside, his eyes boring into Chen Xiaobei's!

"So what if you're a prince? I'm not Japanese. I don't care even if you're the emperor!" Chen Xiaobei wore a look of disdain and said, "Who do you think is the one who lacks manners? The both of you came in here and called me a fraud! That's personal degradation! Consider me polite for not having slapped you already!"

"You…" Nikkawa Susumu and Nikkawa Kyohachi were suddenly lost for words and their faces reddened like ripe tomatoes.

Yamaguchi Takka was in a state of shock. This Chinese kid had just said that the emperor was nothing to him?

Even the poker-faced Nikkawa Uchu exhibited shock at this Chinese kid's daring outburst.

The least one could so, if not to kneel down before, was to bow meekly before the emperor of Japan, the prime minister, and the princes! But this Chinse kid was calm and confident, and did as he pleased – never once considering himself inferior to others.

Was this what the Chinese miracle doctor prided himself with?

Only Amasa Hiko and Amasa Yuki understood that Chen Xiaobei was such a powerful individual.

If Chen Xiaobei was angered, he would make sure to give these two princes a good slap in the face.

 "Mr. Chen, calm down! Princes, please calm down! This is all a misunderstanding. Please don't let this trifling matter affect our relations!"

Amasa Hiko tried to patch things up before it got worse. He was the one who invited Chen Xiaobei. So, if anything bad happened, he would get caught up in between!

 "Misunderstanding my ass! We are doing our duty to the emperor! We will not allow this Chinese kid to rob and kill!" said Nikkawa Susumu and Nikkawa Kyohachi.

"This really is a misunderstanding!" Amasa Hiko quickly stepped in and said, "You must know about Amasa Yuki's sickness, right? I've employed doctors from all around the world but no one could cure her! But Mr. Chen was able to heal her! He really is a miracle doctor!"

"Miracle doctor? Ask him to show us his credentials then!"

 Nikkawa Susumu and Nikkawa Kyohachi were relentless.

Nikkawa Uchu said nothing and allowed the two to continue to persecute Chen Xiaobei.

Chen Xiaobei was, after all, about to go in and cure Nikkawa Okazaka. Nikkawa Uchu would not be comfortable having him do that if he could not even pass this test.

"Mr. Chen, did you bring your documents?" Amasa Hiko asked.

"Heh, I don't have that toy with me." Chen Xiaobei shrugged nonchalantly, "There is no one in China who can match my skills so no one is qualified enough to give me one!"

"The heck! You really are so conceited!" Nikkawa Susumu had steam coming out of his ears. "Who do you think you are?! Your hairs have not even grown out completely and you dare claim that your skills are above and beyond everyone else's? Are you going to call yourself a god after two years?"

Nikkawa Kyohachi added gas to the fire and said, "You don't even have the documents! You're a typical Jianghu sham! How could someone like you cure the crown prince? Call the bodyguards! Get him out of here!"

"Heh, understand this: I was invited to come. If you don't need my help then I can just walk out of that door." Chen Xiaobei warned, "But if you ask me to come again, the consultation fee will double!"

 "Get the f*ck out, you crook! Why would we ask you to come back if we already know that you are a fraud?!" Nikkawa Susumu raised his voice, wishing that Chen Xiaobei would just disappear.

"That's right!" Nikkawa Kyohachi added, "Here in the imperial hospital, we have the world's most advanced machines and the best surgeons! If they can't cure the crown prince, how is a fraud supposed to be able to do it?"

The two idiots were adamant. Nikkawa Uchu had sewed his mouth shut, leaving Yamaguchi Takka and Amasa Hiko confused as to whom to side.

 "Alright! That's it then. I won't cure him!" Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and declared, "But before I leave, I must prove myself! For my own sake and for the sake of Chinese medical science!"

'Really? And how do you plan to do that?" Nikkawa Susumu asked.

"Obviously, by showing you how stupid you both are!" Chen Xiaobei said. 

"Oh, dream on! We won't let you touch him! The crown prince is noble and will not be used as a lab rat for you to prove your medical skills!" Nikkawa Kyohachi barked.

Chen Xiaobei said flatly, "Don't worry. I won't use him as my lab rat. I have the both of you!"

"F*ck off! Our bodies are perfectly fine! We don't need help from a fraud like you! We will not let you touch our noble bodies!"

Nikkawa Susumu and Nikkawa Kyohachi were spurned. 

"Oh, the both of you are sick, alright. Very sick indeed." Chen Xiaobei said, "I won't have to touch you to tell you what your ailments are!"

"How is that even possible? Aren't Chinese doctors all about the four methods of diagnosis: look, listen, ask, and feel? There's no way you could diagnose without doing that!" Nikkawa Susumu and Nikkawa Kyohachi continued to call Chen Xiaobei into question.

As a matter of fact, it wasn't just the two of them. There were a few in the room who have their suspicions about Chen Xiaobei.

Look, listen, ask, and feel!

Nikkawa Susumu and Nikkawa Kyohachi would definitely not cooperate to 'listen' and 'ask'. What more 'feel'? How was Chen Xiaobei supposed to get a proper diagnosis?

If his claims were so ridiculously unsupported, how was that not a sham?

Chen Xiaobei turned to look at Nikkawa Susumu and smirked. "We'll start with you. You are an insomniac. You to toss and turn all night and can never get a good night's sleep. Your body is heaty and you're constantly irritated. The lack of sleep is causing you to feel like you don't want to do anything, right?"

 "You… How do you know that?"

Nikkawa Susumu's jaw fell.

Everyone else was just as shocked. They knew by Nikkawa Susumu's expression that Chen Xiaobei had given an accurate diagnosis.

"Heh, I thought you know everything? I only need to look at you to be able to tell you that! Now, do you believe in my medical skills?" Chen Xiaobei asked. 

"No! I don't! How would I know that you didn't cheat?" Nikkawa Susumu would not give up. "Unless you can tell what the causes of these symptoms are, I won't believe you!"

Chen Xiaobei's lips spread into a cunning grin. "Are you sure you want to say it?"
