This Woman Is a Beast

Medical Center.

Emergency room.

What happened?

Adam went to meet him.

"Doctor, please clean this woman up so I can take her to make a statement as soon as possible. Today is Thanksgiving, and I want to go home early to celebrate."

The elderly police officer complained, "Damn it! She got blood all over my patrol car!"

"Adam".

The woman, her head covered in blood, looked at Adam with a wronged expression.

Phoebe.

Adam asked helplessly, "How did you get into this state?"

"Doctor, do you know her?"

The elderly policeman exclaimed in surprise.

"She is my friend."

Adam looked at the elderly policeman. "What did she do?"

"She was pecked by a turkey."

The elderly police officer couldn't help but laugh when he talked about it.

"You got pecked by a turkey?"

Adam's lips twitched.

"You shouldn't be surprised, right?"

The elderly police officer complained, "Your friend is a crazy animal rights activist!"

"I am an activist for the protection of all living things, including animals and plants."

Phoebe retorted, "I'm not crazy!"

"Officer, she's just a little too compassionate."

Adam managed a weak explanation. "She's not crazy..."

At this point, he seemed a little less confident.

"Whatever."

The elderly policeman shrugged and said, "A shopping mall decorated for Thanksgiving with dried corn, straw, and people dressed like pilgrims. They even had a live turkey!"

"They are exploiting and abusing that turkey."

Phoebe exclaimed, "These capitalists are so despicable and cruel!"

"Don't get agitated."

As Adam cleaned Phoebe's wound, he gestured to the nurse to get the suture instruments.

"So your friend decided to steal the turkey."

The elderly policeman laughed.

"It's time to save it!"

Phoebe countered, "How would you feel if you were trapped there, with everyone coming to see you?"

"Then why don't you go and save the animals in the zoo?"

The elderly policeman scoffed, "Go and release some tigers and lions, and see if you'll still be alive to talk to us about saving them!"

"This is different."

Phoebe retorted, "The animals in the zoo are naturally protected by animal protection organizations, but this turkey was all alone, exploited and abused. It was in such a small cage, and they didn't even give it water. It was abused to death before the animal protection organization could come to its aid."

"You grabbed the turkey, threw it into the car, and tried to get away."

The old policeman sneered, "That's stealing!"

"Then what?"

Adam interrupted, "How come you got pecked by a turkey again?"

"As she was running away, the turkeys went up to her and started scratching and pecking at her."

The old policeman chuckled, "And then comes the funniest part. Guess what your friend did?"

Speaking of which...

The old policeman couldn't help but burst into laughter three times. "Hahaha, she said she was going to save the turkey, but she just snapped the turkey's neck! Hahahaha!"

"..."

Adam's lips twitched, and he glanced at Phoebe speechlessly.

That's so Phoebe!

At this moment.

The veteran policeman's partner, a young policeman, walked over carrying a very large white turkey upside down.

"Look at this! And this is how it turned out. Now you have your Thanksgiving dinner!"

The old policeman pointed at the turkey and laughed heartily.

"Oh, my God."

Phoebe lowered her head in shame, unable to bear to look.

"Officer, you should take it out."

Adam reminded him.

No matter how eccentric Phoebe is, she's still my friend, and I should help her if I can.

"Huh? Is that Narragansett turkey? It's really big!"

Just then, a passing doctor saw this and came over. "This is a good opportunity to give us medical staff who are staying behind some extra food."

"The cafeteria won't handle this at this time."

The nurse reminded her.

"It doesn't matter."

The doctor took the turkey and laughed, "I used to pluck chickens' feathers all the time when I was a kid. Now that I've studied medicine, my feather-plucking skills are even better. I'll take over! This turkey is really good!"

With that, he picked up the turkey and left.

"Police officer."

While stitching Phoebe up, Adam said to the two officers waiting there, "It's Thanksgiving today. Why don't you go home early? You can take the statements tomorrow. It's not a big deal. Don't let this spoil everyone's holiday mood."

"That won't work."

The veteran officer shook his head. "We're handling this officially. Your friend stole in public; that's a terrible thing to do!"

"Al".

The young policeman looked at Phoebe and tugged at his partner. "How about we record it tomorrow? There's no rush."

The veteran policeman glanced at his new partner and knew perfectly well that the young man's infatuation had taken hold. It wasn't a big deal, so he was happy to do him a favor.

"Okay, leave your phone number, and come back tomorrow to give your statement after the holiday."

After saying that, he gestured for the young policeman to come forward and ask for his phone number.

The young policeman, a little embarrassed, took out a pen and paper from his pocket and handed them to Phoebe: "My name is Gene."

Phoebe.

Phoebe, being Experienced Women, understood immediately. Seeing the young policeman looking rather handsome in his uniform, and with a shy yet adorable air, she smiled and signed her phone number.

"Officer, you have to remind me later, otherwise I'm afraid I'll forget! Ah! Adam, be gentle!"

"Don't move!"

Adam complained, "I'm stitching you up, and you're laughing like that, moving your face all over the place. How can it not hurt?"

"We're leaving."

The old policeman called to his partner, who was exchanging flirtatious glances with Phoebe, and left.

"This Gene is pretty good, isn't he?"

Phoebe watched the young policeman's departing figure with a broad smile.

"How?"

Adam teased, "You've already forgotten about your turkey?"

"..."

Phoebe didn't want to talk anymore.

"If you ask me, you should hurry up and find a boyfriend, fall in love, get married, have children, and put all your love into your children."

Adam sighed, "Stop doing this kind of thing all the time. Like a few years ago at Christmas, you tried to stop those withered old Christmas from being disposed of. What was the point except that Joey lost his part-time job selling Christmas? Stop doing things on a whim."

"I quit."

"I can't do it anymore," Phoebe said dejectedly.

"Why?"

Adam exclaimed in surprise.

Despite his attempts to persuade him, he didn't really have much hope.

In his eyes, Phoebe's sudden and drastic change was not a good thing.

This is too much of a blow; I can't take it anymore...

Let me tell you the truth.

Phoebe looked up, her voice trembling with emotion, "When the turkey pecked at me, my most primal instinct for fight or flight kicked in. I uncontrollably transformed into a wild beast, and when I grabbed its neck and heard a snap..."

Speaking of which...

Phoebe lowered her head in shame. "I seem to be enjoying it immensely."

"Don't worry, this is a normal reaction, there's nothing to be ashamed of."

Adam's lips twitched, suppressing a laugh, "You've sacrificed so much to protect it, and it repays kindness with malice by pecking you like this. If it gets a few scars on its face later, it would be too sinful. This is just the pleasure of revenge, which is perfectly normal."

"Oh no! It will leave a scar?!"

Phoebe immediately screamed, "Damn turkey! I'm going to skin it alive!"

Adam: "..."
