But as soon as Julian Norman finished speaking, he noticed July Quinn glaring coldly at him, with a half-smile asking, "Why can’t we call the police? Feeling guilty?"
July Quinn’s words immediately resonated with the crowd watching.
"Looking at him, he must be feeling guilty, right? I told you, Divine Doctor Quinn has cured so many people’s difficult diseases, how could he possibly make such a mistake?"
"Probably someone sent by Divine Doctor Quinn’s rival, jealous of his fame, just trying to slander him."
Listening to the shift in public opinion, Julian Norman broke out in a cold sweat.
If it’s really discovered that he smeared the Divine Doctor for money, not only would he end up in jail, his marriage would definitely be off.
For this reason, he tried to straighten his back and argued with July Quinn, "Who’s feeling guilty? I just don’t want my old father, who’s passed away, to still be tortured."
Saying this, he began to wail loudly again.
"Oh, my old father, it’s your unfilial son who couldn’t let you enjoy life, and instead let you be killed by a quack..."
"Oh heaven, why don’t you open your eyes, my father raised me by himself, finally waiting for me to marry and have children to enjoy life, and now he’s on this road of no return?"
The saying "When a child wants to care for their parents, it’s too late" struck a chord with many people.

Julian Norman thought he had already turned the situation around.
Who knew the next second he would hear July Quinn calling the police: "Officer, this is the Serenity Clinic across from Apex Tower. Uh, there’s been a murder, please come quickly."
Soon, July Quinn ended the call.
Julian Norman erupted in anger: "Didn’t I tell you not to call the police? Can’t you understand human language?"
This matter concerned the life and death of his father, Julian Norman could no longer control his fiery temper.
His voice was frighteningly loud at times, yet July Quinn showed not the slightest fear.
"This concerns my innocence, why can’t I call the police? Is it only allowed that your father can die without disturbance, while I have to bear wrongful accusations?"
Others also felt that July Quinn’s words were reasonable and joined in criticizing Julian Norman.
"Indeed, the dead are gone, but the living have to go on. You can’t let the living suffer injustice for the sake of the dead’s peace."
"The more I think about it, the more it feels off. Shouldn’t he have just called the police directly when his father died, waiting for their decision? But why did he move the body to the door of Serenity Clinic? Rather than seeking justice for his father, I’d say he’s trying to extort Divine Doctor Quinn."
"This matter’s too complex for us to decide, better let the police investigate."
Seeing more and more people supporting July Quinn’s approach, Julian Norman became even more anxious.
But for money, he was still willing to stand against these people: "I didn’t extort anyone! Who would use their own father’s life for money?"
He indeed didn’t use his father’s life for money because he knew his father wasn’t dead.
"Then let the police investigate."
If July Quinn had only said this, Julian Norman might not have been panicked to the point of losing control.
But July Quinn added another line, "Wouldn’t the truth come out if the coroner performed an autopsy on your father?"
Not only calling for police involvement but also suggesting an autopsy on his living father?
Julian Norman was thrown into complete confusion, almost blurting out the truth.
