Capítulo 33: Chapter 29 - Prices
Nakada Ryota continued to sit at the table. He observed the trembling doctors in front of him, moving his gaze from to left to right.
"Now, doctors, I have a few questions. Would you mind answering them?"
The mouse doctor swiped his sweaty brow before saying, "No! Never First Prince! We welcome your questions!"
Ryota nods at this, "Alright then. First question, why did you raise the prices for the medicine?"
The bluntness of the question stunned the mouse doctor. He didn't know if the royals cared that much about some lowly doctors, so he thought that they could get away with it. It seems that news does travel fast.
The mouse doctor cleared his throat, "Uh... First Prince, I don't know what you mean."
Ryota chuckled, "I think you do."
The mouse man began to chuckles the prince, but his was forced. He began to sweat even more, which showed on his white clothing.
"My prince, please forgive us. We're just trying to make a living. You see, the prices hasn't risen, we just rose them to normal pricing! The price we gave to the people was actually lower, but we didn't have enough money to support ourselves! So we had to stop our generosity and bring it back to original price!"
Ryota nodded his head. He stood up and hummed a soft tune, the same tune his dear Miyu sang way back then.
"Do you think that I would really believe your lies?" Ryota questioned. His words were cold, making the room drop a few degrees.
The doctor's trembled even more as Ryota grew nearer. Ryota smelled the pungent scent of alcohol and shriveled up his nose, "Wow, drinking on the job. You probably aren't in your right minds right now, if you drank as much as I can smell it."
The mouse man shivered from Ryota's insults. He's tense, already expecting a fight to break out. He was correct.
The drunkest doctor raised an eyebrow and confronted Ryota, "Why are you disrespecting our drinking habits? You need to let lose once in a while."
Ryota smiled at the man and patted his shoulder warmly. He leaned in and whispered into his ear, "I know you're looking for a fight, but I don't think you should try fighting with me, unless your planning to lose your balls."
The man paled. Ryota chuckled once more and walked farther away, "Alright, you've got two options. Either you lower to prices, you go to jail, or we fight right here right now."
The men looked between each other, wondering what choice they should make. Every single one of them is bad, so they have to choose the least one.
Mouse man walked up first and said, "I'll lower the prices, my prince."
One by one, the doctor's walked forward and promised to lower the prices for the people. All except the man who Ryota warned.
