Masterful Miracle Doctor

Chapter 1067 - 1029: Testing Their True Colors

Lin Jie came from Binhai General Hospital to the University Affiliated Hospital. Just as he entered the annex, he was surrounded by Ma Hongmin, Zhao Fang, and others who saw him, exclaiming anxiously, "Teacher, teacher, why did you come back so late?"Hearing this, Lin Jie's heart sank, and he asked, "Did a patient's condition worsen? Which bed number?"

"No, no!"

Zhao Fang hurriedly explained, "That's not what we mean. We wanted to say, Teacher, you missed the visit from the top leader."

With the excited explanation from Ma Hongmin and Zhao Fang taking turns, Lin Jie finally understood what was going on.

The nation's top leader came to Binhai to attend an international summit and temporarily visited the annex of the Affiliated Hospital to pay respects to those national defense experts who contributed to the country but were severely ill.

Zhao Fang, her face flushed, said, "Teacher, the leader specifically asked about you, knowing you went to the Armed Police General Hospital for a consultation, and asked us to convey his regards to you."

She suddenly changed her voice, roughly saying, "Dr. Lin, you've worked hard."

After saying this, Zhao Fang couldn't hold back her laughter and swiftly hid behind Ma Hongmin.

Ma Hongmin also chuckled, "Teacher, the leader even took a photo with us."

"However, we left a spot open for you, and we'll photoshop you in later."

Lin Jie smiled and said, "The leader's visit and photo, you all savor the excitement yourselves."

"Now tell me, have there been any abnormal changes in the patients' conditions today?"

Zhao Fang peeked out from behind Ma Hongmin and said, "Teacher, all the patients' conditions have been stable today."

"The patient in bed five even told the leader that he feels his body is recovering very well."

"He said that when he was at the tumor hospital in Capital City, he was bedridden, but now he can get out of bed and walk, and on good weather days, he can go to the rooftop leisure area to enjoy the sun and view the scenery."

Zhao Fang proudly said, "The leader told him that although Dr. Lin is very young, he is an outstanding medical expert."

"We all must believe in Dr. Lin, believe that he can overcome the challenges in medical research and achieve great success."

Lin Jie sighed, feeling a heavy weight on his shoulders, yet couldn't help but complain internally, "Everyone believes in me, sees me as a reliance, but who can I rely on?"

"This really is a huge pressure."

Lin Jie checked on several patients' conditions in a few wards, then gathered the doctors in the meeting room.

He found that almost everyone was in high spirits, still immersed in the excitement of the leader's visit.

Lin Jie scanned everyone and slowly said, "The patients in beds five, sixteen, and thirty-three, while the tumor has undergone encouraging changes under the influence of an inducer and inhibitor, the change is too slow and too small."

"Meanwhile, the tumor's infiltration and erosion of healthy organ tissues continue."

"Based on my estimation, if the tumor's infiltration and erosion are not effectively controlled, within seven to ten days, the remaining healthy portions of these three patients' organs will be insufficient to support the next phase of experimental treatment."

"This means that after crossing this threshold, subsequent treatment for these three patients will no longer be meaningful and will turn to conservative treatment focused on enhancing quality of life."

Lin Jie's words were like a bucket of ice water, pouring coldly over everyone, making them quickly sober from the excitement of the leader's visit as they contemplated the patients' conditions.

Everyone present now had a clear understanding of Lin Jie's experimental therapy approach.

The first stage involves directly surgically removing the main tumor body, or after suppression and induction, relocating the main tumor body to a location suitable for surgery, then removing the main tumor body.

The second stage involves inducing the growth of tumor tissues scattered throughout the organs, which are not easily surgically removed, to make them congregate, then removing them surgically or by other means.

After these two removals, the remaining tumor tissues in the patient's body will be limited to a very small extent.

The patient can then use subsequent drug control, chemo-radiotherapy, combined with their own immunity, to gain survival periods of three to five years, or even longer, with a relatively high quality of life.

This approach has a premise that the patient's organs are not completely eroded by the tumor tissue, leaving some room for the experimental therapy to be implemented.

After all, the experimental therapy takes time to produce effects.

Lin Jie looked at the contemplative crowd and instructed, "In the next few days, put in the effort to think, any ideas can be discussed or experimented with. Now is truly the time for collective wisdom, and I hope so many of you can match up to me."

"To be frank, the best method I can think of now is a risky surgery."

"But the outcome of the surgery..."

Lin Jie sighed, "We can only hope for luck, either the patient dies within one to two months."

"Or the patient, if fortunate, survives the recovery period of the surgery, and undergoes the second phase of experimental treatment..."

As Lin Jie left the meeting room, he heard urgent footsteps behind him.

Turning around, he saw it was Huo Guangheng coming, and Lin Jie asked expectantly, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Huo Guangheng shook his head and cautiously said, "Teacher, I'm here to find you, not to talk about patient matters."

Lin Jie's face turned stern, "What's the matter, speak quickly."

Hearing the somewhat unfriendly tone, Huo Guangheng braced himself and said, "Teacher, it's like this, Lulu, and her mother, were previously involved in film and television investment, having some connections in the film industry."

"Now that Lulu's health has recovered, she wants to return to this field."

Huo Guangheng glanced at Lin Jie's expressionless face, gritted his teeth, and said, "Teacher, we know your friend, President Du, is advancing a movie production."

"Lulu just wants, just wants to meet that President Du through you."

Lin Jie stared at Huo Guangheng for a while and said in a deep voice, "Medicine is your foundation, no matter what changes occur in the future, you have your superb medical skills, things won't get too bad."

"This aspect cannot be neglected!"

Huo Guangheng straightened his body and said, "Teacher, rest assured, I've never been lax in this area."

Lin Jie nodded lightly and said, "Tomorrow is Wednesday, there's a gathering at my home in the afternoon, let her come to my home, I'll introduce Du Feixue to her."

"Thank you, teacher..."

Just as Lin Jie reached the first floor, he heard footsteps behind him and cries.

He saw Gao Yanhong running up to him and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

"Teacher..."

Gao Yanhong hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher, can I borrow some money from you?"

"Borrow money?"

Lin Jie was taken aback and asked with concern, "Gao Yanhong, has something happened?"

"You currently receive a monthly stipend of ten thousand for your projects, your daily expenses should be sufficient."

Gao Yanhong said with a bitter expression, "Teacher, on Saturday at the farmhouse, I told you, in a fit of anger, I beat up two guys, didn't I?"

Lin Jie nodded and asked, "What? Did it cause trouble?"

Gao Yanhong lowered her head and said softly, "It's quite a problem, one guy's liver and spleen ruptured."

"Yesterday his family found me, demanding I take responsibility."

Lin Jie frowned, somewhat incredulous, and said, "Didn't you just do a back throw and a side kick? Just one hit per person caused such serious injuries?"

"Ruptured liver and spleen?"

Gao Yanhong said with a pained expression, feeling aggrieved, "I was surprised too, at how fragile they were. Just a back throw, and it caused liver and spleen rupture."

"But, I've seen that guy's medical records."

"On Saturday night, due to severe abdominal pain, he was hospitalized, and the diagnosis was liver and spleen rupture."

"That guy also said, yesterday his family came from back home and after pressing him for answers, he had to admit honestly that I beat him up."

"Teacher, can you lend me a hundred thousand first?"

Lin Jie pondered for a moment and said, "From the time you did the back throw till late night, it must have been at least seven or eight hours, right?"

"The injuries held out for so long before erupting?"

"Of course, it's also possible that the injury was caused by the throw, and then when he got home, due to some movement, the injury suddenly worsened, but this possibility is much less likely."

Lin Jie thought for a moment and decided, "Gao Yanhong, don't worry about this matter."

"If it's truly your responsibility, forget ten thousand, even a million wouldn't be a problem, I, as your teacher, will pay."

"I'll have someone handle this affair."

He instructed, "You, a girl, don't need to get involved again, just focus on taking care of the patients here."

"Leave everything to me."

Gao Yanhong bit her lip and thanked, "Teacher, thank you, my momentary impulsiveness caused trouble for you."

Lin Jie waved his hand, carelessly saying, "No need to be so polite, you're my student."

"Tell me more about the specifics regarding the other party."

After hearing some detailed information, Lin Jie dialed Li Haoxiang, instructing him to check if there was any hidden situation in this matter, and if it was indeed our side's responsibility, to handle it properly.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Jie comforted, "Gao Yanhong, I'll leave this matter to Li Haoxiang, the lawyer now."

"He's my personal lawyer, and Zhongcheng Law Firm, where he's at, is also the law firm for Anlin Hospital—they shouldn't be collecting fees without doing the work."

"Let's test their capabilities through this incident..."

As Lin Jie left the annex building, he saw Cheng Xingguang approaching hurriedly, smilingly asking, "Dean Cheng, you won't tell me you're here for me?"

Cheng Xingguang chuckled and said, "If not for you, then who else would it be?"

"Thanks to you, I received a meeting with the top leader today."

"Let me tell you something joyful, this time, the leader's visit wasn't just for consolation, he also allocated a ten million from his special funds to support your research..."

At this moment, Lin Jie's phone vibrated.

He took out his phone to see a message, it read: "At the superbug research center in Philadelphia, met the federal employee responsible for the security of that person..."
