Venom-filled incantations and the repetition of merciless whacking often leave people with a negative impression of villain hitting. However, it’s not all about hatred and revenge. In fact, Wong views her work in a completely different light. When recalling her most memorable experiences, Wong describes in fond remembrance the lives she claims to have saved.
“In 2017, there was an elderly man from Tuen Mun who was in a coma for over two months. The doctors told his daughters that it was a hopeless case. But one of the daughters’ colleagues directed the sisters to seek out one Wong Get-lei under Canal Road Flyover. Needless to say, the two sisters came to find me. I performed a ritual for the father and promised that he wouldn’t die […]. I told them that after a specific date and time, their father would wake up from his coma.”
Sure enough, in a miraculous turnaround, the man came out of his coma and is purportedly still alive and kicking to this day. “Isn‘t it a happy thing to be able to help people?” Wong asks rhetorically, as she scrolls through her phone, showing photos of another client whom she allegedly saved from death’s door.
