The Invincible Mercenary King

Chapter 23

“Help! Is there a doctor nearby? My grandfather is unconscious. Please help him!”

The girl kept calling for help. Her voice was full of fear and worry.

Haylan frowned and looked over.

A crowd of onlookers gathered, watching and talking with each other.

A pretty, ponytailed girl of about 18 was in the middle, panicking and screaming for help.

Her tearful face was written with fear, panic, and helplessness.

Next to the girl lay an elderly man in his seventies, his hands on his chest, his eyes closed tightly, and his face contorted in pain. He was sweating profusely and panting heavily. He looked as if he were about to die at any minute.

“What a pretty girl. But we still can’t tell if she’s telling the truth. Maybe this is a scam. We would be fucked if we helped her.”

“You are right. An increasing number of people fake injuries just to extort money.”

“Let’s wait a while to see how this old man is doing. If he does have a serious illness, as this girl said, an ordinary doctor might not even be able to save him.”

“He’s either having some kind of seizure or faking it.”

Most of the people looked on passively, pointing and talking about it with cautious expressions on their faces. No one offered a helping hand.

“He’s having a heart attack!” Haylan muttered to himself.

Even from a distance, he could see at a glance that the elderly man was seriously ill, with a severely blocked artery in his heart.

That was why he was in a lot of pain and couldn’t get up.

Now that his condition had worsened, the consequences would be unimaginable if he didn’t receive

treatment soon.

“I am a doctor! Get out of the way!”

He instantly ran over with stern eyes.

A man was dying. He had no time to think about the consequences at such a critical moment.

The crowd parted to make way for Haylan, who rushed over and immediately came to the side of the elderly man and the young girl.

“Sir, are you a doctor?”

The girl’s eyes lit up with joy when she heard Haylan’s words. She grabbed Haylan’s arm and begged him as if he were a savior. “Sir, please, please save my grandfather.

“As long as you save him, your reward will be generous.”
