Chapter 894: Reverse Training
I asked Grandma Su how she was going to cure Su Qiao’s conditioned reflex. Grandma Su snorted coldly:
“Use strong medicines to treat serious illnesses. There’s actually not much difference between humans and animals. The same methods used to train animals can be used to train humans.”
I thought what Grandma Su said was ridiculous, so I continued to ask. Grandma Su told me: There are a lot of animal trainers in the acrobatic troupes. How do you train lions, tigers, and other ferocious beasts to be obedient? Well, there are various ways, the nomads from ancient times have even come up with an effective method of taming eagles, those aloof and unruly birds.
In order to remove the violent and wild temperament of an eagle, falconers made leather straps and blindfolds which restricts an eagle’s freedom and restricts its five senses. In addition, they also perform the something referred to as staying the eagle, which is something that’s deeply hated by animal protectionists.
The so-called ‘staying the eagle’ means not feeding the eagle, but instead washing its stomach contents. After washing its stomach, they would give it a hot bath (similar to a sauna) to make it weak. At night, the eagle would be tied to a thick rope. They wouldn’t touch the eagle when its eyes are wide open, but when it gets too tired and begins to squints its eyes to take a nap, they would then shake the rope. They would repeat the process over and over again to not let the eagle sleep.
After inflicting the torture on the eagle for several days in a row, it would undoubtedly exhaust the eagle from mind to body. When the eagle is completely physically and mentally exhausted and reaches the limit, the falconer begins to use small favors (such as feeding the eagle fresh meat) to get closer to it. From then on, step by step, the eagle would form a close relationship with the falconer.
“Hmph, what’s the difference between what that foreign woman did to my granddaughter versus training an eagle? They’re all tricks used by our ancestors! If she can turn my granddaughter into this, then I can bring my granddaughter back! It’s not a problem that would give me a headache!”
I briefly listened to Grandma Su’s ‘anti-training plan’ and thought it was really… quite weird.
Grandma Su basically wanted to fight fire with fire.
She would first cover the space where Su Qiao lives with posters of male bodybuilders. That approach might give Su Qiao a huge impact at first and make her body limp. However, given time, I believe her reaction to static pictures will reduce.
After static pictures no longer have any impact on Su Qiao, we would begin to challenge moving pictures, using a computer to play videos of the previous Mister World competitions, and maybe even directly playing a movie of two naked men wrestling.
We have to endure it regardless of what kind of impacts the video and audio will have on Su Qiao. Once she doesn’t react to those movies anymore, we can finally enter the final stage —— to try and face a real man’s muscles, and the real man in question is me.
“Hey! Why is it me!” Even though it was far from the final stage, I wasn’t satisfied with the decision Grandma Su made alone, “If Su Qiao sees me after watching a gay film, then it makes me feel like I’m actually gay!”
“Nonsense!” Grandma Su said to me as she clenched her dentures, “The fewer people who know about what happened to my granddaughter, the better! It’s rare that you have so much muscles at such a young age, which is exactly what I want. Or do you not want to do it?”
What Grandma Su said was reasonable, and I couldn’t think of any reason to object, so I temporarily agreed. Anyway, that was after the reverse training plan was in effect and reached the final stage.
What needed to be solved urgently now was that Grandma Su and Su Qiao needed a new place to live.
Grandma Su’s original rental house was relatively small because she didn’t expect to be able to rescue her granddaughter so quickly. It was enough for herself, but now she had to live with two people. She also needed a special room for her granddaughter’s reverse training, so she needed to change houses quickly.
Speaking of renting a house, I remembered that when I went to watch the underground boxing match with Peng TouSi, there was a real estate agent who sat next to us. He was drunk and came out to have fun, but he still remembered to do business. He forcibly handed us two business cards and I still had it in my wallet.
I thought I should give it a try, so I gave him a call. Unexpectedly, as soon as I mentioned the underground boxing match and the black bodyguard, his tone suddenly changed, and he became both fearful and respectful towards me.
“So it’s… Young Master Lin Ye? You actually need me! Is there anything I can do to help?”
That night I changed my name to ‘Lin Ye’, and after hearing Peng TouSi say that I was a triad, he naturally thought that I was ‘Young Master Lin Ye’. I later also beat Huang San half to death in the boxing ring, which further deepened his impression of me. He had long sobered up, so of course he was a little frightened when dealing with the triads.
I was too lazy to correct his misunderstanding. I told him that I had two friends who wanted to rent a place near downtown and asked if he had any suitable places.
“I do! If it’s for you, I would have one even if I didn’t!” his response was very unnatural, “Mr. Huang’s son was left mute and could only eat goldthread after being beaten by you. How would I dare to dissatisfy you!”
Huang Wu was Huang San’s father. He was dealt with by Ai ShuQiao’s people afterwards and he became so silent he didn’t mention anything about revenge to me. Kamakura was probably the one responsible.
Since the real estate agent thought that he was working for the triads, he was cautious and didn’t keep me waiting. He quickly followed my request and found a house suitable for Grandma Su in the database.
“I took people to see this place before. It’s a staff dormitory and it has good layout and lighting. They’re renting it out because they don’t have enough employees to fill the place. The only drawback is that the rent is a bit expensive. I’ll discuss it with the landlord and see if we can lower it…”
“My granddaughter and I have enough money to rent a house, as long as it’s a good place!” Grandma Su interjected from the side. It seemed that she wasn’t short on money.
However, as soon as I heard the name of the landlord, I was so happy that I told him he didn’t need to worry about it anymore.
The landlord was no one but Professor Bai from Happy Science! So that was Happy Science’s staff dormitory! It’s true that you need multiple people to run a cult, so did they hire a few employees to live in the dormitory I heard from Professor Bai that the dormitory was given to Happy Science by a certain rich woman, because their calculation program successfully calculated that the young singer who was being raised by the rich woman was looking for a new place…
“Huh? Young Master Lin Ye, are you sure you really don’t need me? I’ve met with Professor Bai a few times before. Maybe I can help negotiate the price…”
“Why would we need to negotiate about price?” I blurted out, “As long as I know who owns the house, I can live in it without spending a penny!”
Of course, what I meant was that as Happy Science’s right hand, Professor Bai’s things were also mine. On top of letting Grandma Su and Su Qiao live there for free, they wouldn’t have to worry about meals either!
However, the agent didn’t know the inside story. When he heard that I could live there without paying rent, he couldn’t help but be a little frightened.
“Um… Young Master Lin Ye, although Professor Bai has organized some strange Happy Science seminar, he was always very punctual and kept his appointments when doing business with us. He’s a good person, you can’t tell your men to take care of him!”
He really treated me as a real triad member.
I didn’t have time to explain it to him carefully, so I just said ‘don’t worry’ and hung up the phone.
After that, of course, I contacted Professor Bai and shamelessly and asked him to rent the room out to Su Qiao and her granddaughter for free. Professor Bai easily agreed and even promised to provide three meals a day. The only condition was that I tell him the entire process of rescuing Su Qiao in detail —— in Professor Bai’s eyes, information was simply worth more than gold.
The matter of finding a place to live was settled easily. I told Grandma Su what happened and told them that although they lived at Happy Science and ate in the same place with their employees, they must not be brainwashed.
“They want to brainwash me? They’re going to have to wait another hundred years!” Grandma Su said, “I’ve listened to Happy Science’s lectures before!”
If I didn’t mention Grandma Su, I almost forgot that when Grandma Su first arrived in Dong Shan City, she went to a Happy Science lecture out of curiosity and tortured Assistant Professor Chen with her needles and he ended up turning himself in to the police.
Grandma Su learned that I was joining forces with Happy Science to fight against Ai ShuQiao, so I was able to gain access to Happy Science’s resources, and she was quite impressed with me.
“So you know to join forces at such a young age! Also, you have a strong body. In ancient times, you would have been a general who was capable of fighting!”
I don’t know if I would have known how to fight in ancient times, but Grandma Su definitely had the attitude of a general. She called her original landlord and told her that she wanted to check out. According to what was written in the contract, she didn’t want the three months of rent she prepaid anymore. The house was small and in a bad location, so three months’ of rent wasn’t much.
Her landlord was actually very respectful to elders. He felt that Grandma Su wasn’t an ordinary person and had only lived in the house for a few days, so he scraped together two and a half months’ rent and returned it to her. He also helped Grandma Su carry her luggage onto the taxi.
Later, when the original owner wanted to sell the house and went to that real estate agency for a consultation, he heard that a young master from the triads helped Grandma Su move into a more spacious and cleaner house for free. He couldn’t help but feel a little scared when he heard about it.
“Fortunately, I had a good attitude when Grandma Su checked out. Otherwise, if that young man came to look for me… then I’d be in trouble!”
Before noon that day, I escorted Grandma Su and Su Qiao and helped them move into Happy Science’s staff dormitory. Instead of going into the dormitory to take a look, I discussed the latest information I obtained with Professor Bai who came to greet me.
By the way, one thing was very depressing. When I went to the front desk to check out at noon, my eyes returned to normal after a night’s rest, which really shocked the bald boss.
As soon as I stepped out of the door, he said to his employee: “That guy seems to be dissatisfied! It’s probably because his girlfriend didn’t satisfy him last night…”
