Chapter 578: Do You Know The Butterfly Effect?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Amelia looked back three times with every step and followed Mrs. Walton in silence. Suddenly, she looked up and asked, “Master, if we can’t stop it when we see it, what’s the point of catching ghosts?”
Elmer lowered his eyes and said gently, “Of course you can stop it, but do you know the butterfly effect? If you touch a person’s fate, it will affect the fate of thousands of people related to him. For example, when Zhang San grows up, he will be evil and commit murder and arson. Ten people will die because of him, and when Zhang San was young, he should have died because of an accident. Then, the ten people would have survived. But you saved him when he was young, so when he grew up, ten people would die. This is fate.”
So, it��s not that Elmer is cold, but sometimes you don’t even know if what you interfere in is right or wrong in the future.
Amelia pursed her lips and asked, “What if Zhang San is a hero?” If Zhang San would save ten people when he grew up, wouldn’t the ten people in the future also die if he died today and she didn’t save him?
Elmer nodded. “That’s true, but the most fundamental reason is that we can’t confirm if Zhang San is a good person or a bad person in the future, a hero or a murderer. Because we don’t know, we don’t interfere. We can’t casually interfere in other people’s lives just because we have more abilities than ordinary people.”
Amelia did not understand. She was still too young now. Perhaps she would understand after experiencing more in the future.
Mrs. Walton was already used to Amelia talking to herself and did not disturb her. Instead, Harper suddenly said, “Sister, the cat can be called Red Packet.” Didn’t she like red packets the most?
Amelia was stunned for a moment before saying speechlessly, “Brother Harper, you should stay in the hospital obediently first.” She realized that after Brother Harper had reconciled with his family and was no longer repulsed and wary of them, his mind became more and more sluggish.
On the other side, Mrs. Walton calmly went through a series of hospitalization procedures. On the other side, Zhii’s cousin was kneeling at the entrance of the ICU. She was crying so much that her eyes were about to go blind. “Laing… My Laing…” Behind her were her relatives and friends who had rushed over by car. Sang was also here.
“What’s wrong?” Sang had just sobered up and was still confused. He asked, “Laing was fine yesterday. You guys didn’t take good care of him last night? He fell out of bed?”
Zhii’s cousin hurriedly slapped Sangs mouth. “Stop talking!’
Sang was a little angry from the slap, but his relatives’ expressions were not good, so he shut up. Anyway, it had nothing to do with him. He sat at the side and played with his phone.
At this moment, the door of the ICU opened. The doctor held the examination report. “On the way here, my colleague has already asked about the condition. There’s something very important. Do you think the child drank a little yesterday?”
Zhii’s cousin was stunned.
Zhii’s other cousin, Sangs wife, quickly said, “Just a small sip…”
The doctor said solemnly, “Excluding external injuries and food poisoning, the most likely thing now is alcohol poisoning or alcohol allergy. Children can’t touch any alcohol. Don’t you know?”
Zhii’s cousin recalled what happened yesterday and muttered, “Yesterday, after Laing drank that mouthful of alcohol. he quickly fell asleep in a daze.
When he returned home in the afternoon, he didn’t wake up either. He just moved a little. I thought that he was too tired from playing. At night, Laing slept very soundly and didn’t wake up until morning. His face was dark…”
When Zhii’s other cousin heard this, she felt as if she had fallen into an icehouse. If it was really her husband’s fault, the ICU would cost tens of thousands of yuan a day! How could their family have so much money to compensate?
At this moment, the doctor continued to say a few more words. In short, if they were any later in sending the child over, he might not make it. Even if he was saved, his brain would be damaged and his IQ would forever remain at three years old. He wanted the patient’s family to be mentally prepared.
Zhii’s cousin went crazy! After the ICU door closed, she suddenly pounced on Sang and raised her hand to slap his face hard. “It’s you! It’s all your fault!
What are you thinking?! Giving alcohol to my son! Give my son back his life!”
Sang was watching a beauty dance online and did not hear what the doctor said. Before he could react, he was slapped twice. “Aiyo, what are you doing!
Stop!’
Zhii’s cousin was on the verge of breaking down. How could she stop? She screamed and hit Sang, wishing he would die!
The relatives hurriedly went to stop them. Amidst everyone’s persuasion, Sang finally understood that Laing might have been hospitalized because of the glass of alcohol he had drunk.. Seriously? It was just a mouthful of alcohol, right? Moreover, the final diagnosis was not out yet!
