Chapter 1534 The Taste of Truth
In reality, Ellie had no idea who Emmanuel was, so when she was brought to Emmanuel
and Smith, she looked confused and a little panicked.
“Don’t be afraid. We’re here to help you! We’d like your stool sample to see if you have
poisoning!” Emmanuel said, but Ellie showed no excitement. Not only that, but she also
resisted quite strongly, backing away and refusing, “No! I don’t want to! Please, just let
us die in peace!”
Emmanuel and Smith were quite surprised and couldn’t help but glance at eac

in broken Chanaean.
Ellie pretended not to understand, pursing her lips and not responding. Emmanuel
thought there was something fishy about this. The fact that this girl had no will to
thinking she was better off dead, led him to speculate that maybe she was coerced

cooperating with someone to discredit the Terence Group. The story behind this had to
be investigated thoroughly. However, the immediate priority was to determine the
cause of these patients’ illnesses.
Emmanuel whispered a few words to Rob, and the latter nodded, instructing Finnian to
forcibly conduct the stool test on her. Finnian’s expression was quite strange; nothing
escaped Emmanuel’s eyes. Regardless, ultimately, Finnian agreed and had someone
administer a laxative to Ellie.
Before administering the medicine, Emmanuel checked Ellie’s pulse and abdomen
silently. Smith didn’t know these techniques and could only stand by helples
small lump of dark, hard stool was brought before Emmanuel and Smith.
Emmanuel, wearing gloves, touched the stool, which was as hard as iron, with h
fingers, and to everyone’s shock, he then put his finger into his mouth.
Holy crap! Shane was dumbfounded. He couldn’t believe what Emmanuel was doi

it
Frederick also looked astonished. He never thought his friend would go this far to
diagnose a patient. That said, it was all to save him. He was touched.
Only Beatrix remained relatively calm, although she was also surprised, but not as
exaggerated as the others. On the other hand, Smith touched the substance with his
fingers as well, but only to check its condition, without trying its taste as Emmanuel did.
However, the next moment, Emmanuel made a diagnosis. “These patients have
cadmium poisoning!”
D*mn! Smith and Rob were utterly astonished. Smith, in particular, immediat

with the results, it wouldn’t make much difference.
After everything was arranged, Smith returned to Emmanuel.

At this point, Rob was also seeking advice from Emmanuel, “Mr. Lowe, the substance
you tested, just by looking at it, one can tell it’s the result of long-term constipation. But
multiple heavy metal poisonings could also cause constipation. How did you determine
it was cadmium poisoning?”
Emmanuel smiled mysteriously. “Have you heard of ‘Dioscorides’ De Materia Medica”?”
“Are you judging by the taste?” Rob exclaimed with revelation. “I’ve heard of Dioscorides
tasting various herbs and encountering seventy-two poisons. It’s thanks to such figures
that Chanaean medicine has developed rapidly and greatly!
“I didn’t expect you traditional medicine practitioners to inherit such spirit an
wonder your
medical skills are so impressive, Mr. Lowe! In comparison, we mo
medicine practitioners are indeed far inferior in this regard!” Rob’s words made
feel uncomfortable. Emmanuel made the diagnosis first. Even if the results of the
chemical tests confirmed it, they would still lose. Moreover, the look in Rob’s eyes
moment seemed to be full of disappointment toward him.

Smith was Rob’s proudest disciple. Continuously losing to Emmanuel somewhat
tarnished the reputation of their sect. More importantly, his master’s gaze probably
expressed disappointment that modern medicine’s dedication to research wasn’t as
good as traditional medicine’s.
If Emmanuel could do it, why couldn’t he? He just needed to taste the sample and
elaborate on it later, elevating his skills.
