Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1014

Francis spoke in a panic. "Ms. Luna, Mr. Phelan Senior isn't some average Joe—how could you let a complete nobody treat him out of nowhere?"

Luna did not respond. Instead, her eyes stayed locked on Andrew's hands as he worked the needles. Every single needle landed with incredible precision, striking the right acupoints even through Montgomery's clothes.

What really shocked her was how fast Andrew moved. Not only was he fast, but every needle hit exactly where it should.

Luna did not know much about medicine, but her martial arts skills were exceptional, and she knew the human body like the back of her hand. To be able to locate such precise pressure points through clothing and do acupuncture quickly took some real skill.

'Maybe this guy actually knows a thing or two about medicine,' she thought to herself.

Mosby and the others did not interrupt anymore. Instead, they all stared at Andrew's every move.

"Dr. Lake, that acupuncture technique looks familiar, doesn't it?" asked a man with a goatee, his voice filled with doubt and curiosity.

Mosby took a deep breath and forced down the surprise in his chest. He said, "Ninefold Needles. It's a rare and ancient medical practice."

The goatee man, Joshua Davies, looked stunned. "Ninefold Needles? Isn't that supposed to be an exclusive technique from the Advanced Medical Institute? How could this kid know it?"

Mosby let out a cold snort. "These days, there aren't many people who know Ninefold Needles, but it's not like it's a lost art either. Calling it an exclusive secret technique might be a bit of a stretch."

As he spoke, Mosby raised his hand and flicked a few silver needles into the air. They cut through the space with sharp, whistling sounds, causing everyone around him to gape in awe.

Someone gasped, "Dr. Lake, wait—so you know Ninefold Needles too?"

"Dr. Lake, you're seriously a hidden master!"
