Chapter 78 Amphetamine


    Chapter 78 Amphetamine


    The previous set of fake moves by Nichs was just to provoke the anger of the opposing team


    from Roblia High School. He waited for them to intercept him before leaping into the air and


    throwing the ball. This was his true purpose.


    Amidst the anticipation of the crowd, the basketball traced a graceful and fierce arc in the air, then


    with a "bang," it urately and wlesslynded in the basket!


    The whole arena erupted with cheers!


    Eloise tightly held onto Charlotte''s hand, excitedly eximing as if she had won five million dors.


    She said, "Char! We have won the game!"


    Charlotte also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Yes, we have won!"


    Cecilia said, "Although Nichs has a bad temper, he''s actually quite good at basketball."


    Eloise quickly handed a bottle of water to Charlotte and said, "Char, Nichs helped you so much.


    You should go thank him now! Hurry up and bring him some water!"


    Charlotte thought for a moment and agreed. If it wasn''t for Nichs stepping forward to help her,


    she wouldn''t have known how to handle the situation. So, being pulled by Eloise, she made her way


    to the victorious school basketball team.


    Most of the girls sitting in the front row had already prepared towels and water, and they all crowded


    around. Charlotte frowned and said, "There are too many people and we can''t squeeze in."


    As soon as she finished speaking, the water in her hand was snatched away by another hand.


    Charlotte looked up in astonishment and saw a tall and slender boy looking down at her. He shook


    the water in his hand and said, "Thanks."


    Then he unscrewed the bottle cap and drank more than half of it.


    Eloise smiled and said, "Nichs, your charm is as strong as ever. All the girls in the school will fall


    in love with you."


    Nichs smiled withoutmenting and seemed indifferent. He stuffed the water back into


    Charlotte''s hand and said, "Hold it for me."


    Charlotte nodded. Nichs reached out and ruffled her hair. Charlotte frowned and said, "Nichs,


    your hands are all sweaty!"

    Nichs raised an eyebrow and asked, "Don''t you like it?"


    Charlotte nodded earnestly.


    Nichs was speechless.


    He didn''t want to argue with Charlotte and decided to take a shower. After all, it was ufortable


    to be covered in sweat. Charlotte had also aplished her goal and was about to hold Eloise''s


    hand. Suddenly, a rushing sound pierced through the air. Charlotte abruptly looked up and saw a


    basketball hurtling toward her!


    Nichs contracted his eyes, and he quickly pulled Charlotte into his arms, narrowly avoiding the


    basketball.


    Not far away, the captain of Roblia Basketball Team, Vincent, shrugged with a fake smile and said,


    "Sorry, my hand slipped."


    Nichs''s eyes could almost freeze into ice and were extremely cold.


    Charlotte felt a bit frustrated. She wondered if it was a day unsuitable for going out, otherwise why


    did she keep getting hit on the head by "flying objects"?


    She lifted her head from Nichs'' arms. Because she wasn''t used to such intimate contact with


    others, especially boys, her ears turned red. Her voice was soft and low, "Nichs, I''m fine."


    Nichs let her go, feeling a bit puzzled about what this girl had been eating to have such a slim


    waist.


    Eloise held onto Charlotte and said, "Char!"


    Charlotte shook her head, signaling that she was fine. She furrowed her brows and looked at


    Vincent, "Are you the captain of Roblia Basketball Team?"


    After losing the game, Vincent was in a very bad mood, so his temper became even more irritable,


    "Why should I answer you?"


    Charlotte suddenly said, "How many performance-enhancing drugs did you guys use?"


    The faces of the team members all changed.


    Vincent''s gaze became very sinister. He stared fixedly at Charlotte, "What nonsense are you


    spouting?!"


    Nichs calmly pulled Charlotte to his side and asked in a low voice, "Did these bastards use


    performance-enhancing drugs?"


    Charlotte nodded, "I wasn''t sure before, but now I am."


    Vincent gritted his teeth and said, "I advise you not to say nonsense! What evidence do you have to


    prove that we used performance-enhancing drugs?"


    As the dispute escted, more and more people gathered around. Upon hearing Charlotte''s words,


    they began to discuss.


    "Performance-enhancing drugs? Did Roblia High School use them?"


    "No way... those are banned substances. If someone is caught using them during apetition,


    they won''t be able to participate in any legitimatepetitions in the future!"


    "How does this illegitimate daughter know about it?"


    "I think she''s just seeking attention. She''s not a doctor, after all!"


    "You can''t say that. She was the one who exposed Daisy''s thingst time!"


    "Well, it could be a coincidence. Personally, I think she''s talking nonsense."


    "..."


    Charlotte paid no attention to these remarks and calmly looked at Vincent, saying, "Indeed,


    performance-enhancing drugs can be easily metabolized by the body and it is hard to detect.


    However, there is no perfect crime in this world. Careful blood and urine tests will reveal traces."


    Before Vincent could say anything, Charlotte continued, "You must be using amphetamine and its


    rted derivatives and salts, right? This substance has a simr effect to ephedrine. It is used for


    episodic sleep disorders and depression, and can also serve as an anesthetic and other central


    nervous system depressants. In sports, it can make people overly excited, enhancing alertness,


    initiative, and confidence, reducing feelings of fatigue, and increasing speech, attention, and


    concentration. It is the original performance-enhancing drug..."


    With a fierce look in his eyes, Vincent stopped Charlotte and rushed towards her like a madman,


    "Shut up! You bitch! Shut up!"


    Nichs protected Charlotte behind him, while the hotheaded member of the school''s basketball


    team kicked Vincent to the ground. Although Vincent was knocked down, he didn''t seem to feel any


    pain. Instead, his pupils dted, his expression became ferocious, and his hands and feet began to


    tremble, showing extreme excitement.


    Anthony cursed, "Did he really use performance-enhancing drugs?!"


    Charlotte secretly said, "Quickly restrain him! He''s having a seizure! He might attack people!"


    Before Charlotte could finish speaking, Vincent, with his eyes bloodshot, crawled up from the


    ground like a madman and started crashing into everything around him. It took great effort from


    several members of the basketball team to finally subdue him. Even when pressed to the ground,


    he continued to tremble and breathe heavily with excitement.


    Anthony turned to Charlotte and asked, "Little Magical Doctor, what should we do now?"


    Charlotte didn''t dare to get too close and just observed Vincent from a distance of two meters,


    saying, "Excitement is intermittent. Just hold him down for a while, and the side effects of


    amphetamines will kick in. Then he will feel fatigued, inhibition, and headaches. We need to take


    him to the hospital."


    Eloise was also a bit afraid of Vincent because he didn''t seem to like a human anymore. He looked


    more like a rabid dog she had once seen, foaming at the mouth, red in the eyes, and terrifying.
