Chapter 378: Chapter 378: Hands-On Practice
Wendy Tierney was already irritated by the potential threat to her special status by July Quinn.
And now, July Quinn was starting to show off in front of others, which she couldn’t tolerate.
So without a second thought, she directly snapped at July Quinn.
"His pulse is so weak now, if we don’t take him to a hospital, he’ll die. This is a matter of life and death, not the time for you to show off."
Thomas Grant frowned, seemingly finding Wendy Tierney’s words a bit overly harsh.
Nevertheless, seeing Darren’s condition, it seemed necessary to take him to a hospital; July Quinn’s argument wasn’t convincing.
Therefore, he didn’t refute Wendy Tierney, but signaled to Wayne Shelby to prepare to take Darren to the hospital.
By this time, July Quinn had already tied up Susan Carter and thrown her into a corner. She then helped the still shaken Owen Shaw to sit to the side before turning to gaze at Wendy Tierney with a teasing look.
"Is saving lives also ’showing off’? Miss Wendy’s opinion would get trolled online like crazy."
"Save lives? You? Based on what? That you haven’t gone to college, or that you’re quick and precise at beating people up?"
Wendy Tierney retorted without holding back.
In any case, she simply didn’t believe July Quinn could stop Darren’s bleeding and save his life.
Thomas Grant and the others stayed silent, evidently also not believing that July Quinn could save a life.
"Theoretical knowledge is always inferior to practical experience."
July Quinn said as she pulled out her set of silver needles from her pocket.
Although she couldn’t stand Wendy Tierney’s behavior, Darren’s situation could not be delayed.
If the acupuncture was any later, not even Asclepius reincarnated could save him.
But just as she was about to stick the needle into Darren, Wendy Tierney grabbed July Quinn’s hand that held the needle.
"Hold on!"
July Quinn looked at her, eyes cold and indifferent: "If we keep delaying, can you take responsibility if he dies?"
"I can’t take responsibility."
Darren was to be sent to an international court, and if he died on the way, she couldn’t shoulder it alone.
Yet Wendy Tierney still held tightly onto July Quinn’s hand.
"But how do I know that sticking him with your needle will save him and not kill him?"
Although Thomas Grant and the others also thought Wendy Tierney shouldn’t interrupt July Quinn’s acupuncture, they had to admit she had a point.
Darren’s survival directly affected the success of their mission; if July Quinn’s needle ended up killing Darren, they would also face the consequences.
So Thomas Grant remained silent.
July Quinn, however, checked Darren’s pulse again.
"So what do you want to do? If I don’t apply the needle within five minutes, he’ll meet The Grim Reaper."
"It’s simple, I’ll record a video now. As long as you say on camera that you’ll take full responsibility for sticking Darren with the needle, and if he dies during the process, it’s all on you."
Wendy Tierney thought a young girl like July Quinn would surely be afraid of getting involved in legal issues.
So if she really couldn’t save Darren, she would likely refuse, and they would just send Darren to the nearest hospital instead.
Unexpectedly, July Quinn’s response was: "Sure, record it."
Wendy Tierney: "..."
Could it be she misjudged?
Did July Quinn genuinely have miraculous medical skills and the confidence to save Darren?
No...
July Quinn was still so young; she hasn’t even attended college, how could she possess miraculous medical skills?
She must have agreed just for the sake of showing off.
Since she was so recklessly seeking attention, Wendy Tierney would give her the opportunity.
Some people only realize their mistakes when they hit a wall.
Thus, Wendy Tierney took out her phone, and July Quinn, per her earlier demand, stated she would take full responsibility for Darren’s life or death.
Then, July Quinn applied the needle.
And soon, Darren’s bleeding mysteriously stopped, and even his consciousness returned.
The Vanguard War Generals were stunned once again.
