Chapter 199: The colluding brother?

On the other side, Jia got to work. First, she thoroughly checked Ehuang’s parents’ claim that the doctor who originally did the surgeries had passed away. Unfortunately, that turned out to be the truth for her, but she didn’t give up there. She pulled out his entire history.

The doctor’s name was Xie Jietang, who was a gynecologist in a medium sized hospital in Beijing. He was a good and reputed doctor in the locality and his practice went well over the years.

Good and reputed? She sneered. I don’t think any good and reputed doctor would collude with delusional parents to do such terrible surgeries on a child.

On the outside, there seemed to be no stain of any bad practice on his career as a doctor or any serious complaints ever registered against him.

But Jia wondered if what was being shown on the outside was really true?

If he had been a really good doctor, then would he have really urged a couple to for these surgeries because of the accident?

Which raised another question. Another lie and a false claim that the parents made about Ehuang’s accident.

What was the accident exactly? How did it happen and in such a way that Ehuang was conveniently hurt in her genitalia area that badly? And somehow doing those surgeries was the only option left to save her that also coincidentally aligned with Mr. Yu and Mrs. Yu’s orthodox philosophies?

Her eyes narrowed.

It’s too good to be true.

The defense lawyer did put up some medical reports in the court, but Jia didn’t believe in them. She was so sure that they were forged with the help of that bent doctor.

But was that doctor really doing this all alone? Jia thought to herself. From surgeries to faking medical documents, did he not have any helper?

It also brought another question in her mind.

Since they purposely did these surgeries out of their orthodox beliefs, it’s clear that they already knew the doctor from somewhere. They knew where to take Ehuang to carry out these despicable surgeries.

But how did they meet?

Jia initially figured there would be some close connection with either Mr. Yu or Mrs. Yu and only because of that, the couple trusted this doctor enough for their schemes. Otherwise it would have been a great risk to find such a bent doctor among the crowd all by themselves and not get caught.

They don’t seem to be black market type of people having connections with goons and mafia. They have orthodox beliefs but they are not organized criminals.

So the question came again as to how they met?

Jia knew one person who could answer that.

—

"This is ridiculous! You cannot just barge in my office and-"

Yu Heng gulped seeing Jia’s fiersome daggers that she threw from her gaze alone. He was afraid to test those daggers through her fists if she wanted to.

"Yu Long’s brother and Ehuang’s Uncle, right?"

"I know why you are here. This is about the court case, right? I am telling you, I know nothing of it. There is no use questioning me," he wiped his forehead with his handkerchief. "I am equally baffled by what is happening..."

Jia smiled. "Really now? So you mean to say that you had no clue of what was happening when Ehuang came to you for help a few years ago?"

"I didn’t!"

"Then why did you snitch her to your brother when she showed her trust in you!?" She banged her palm on the table. "Because of you, she lost her trust in other doctors and hospitals and kept bearing the burden of her fate all alone and in fear."

"I..."

"So you better cough out the truth because it is the matter of a sixteen years old girl’s life. I will see to it that whoever was responsible for her tragedy is behind bars by hook or by crook."

"I don’t know anything!" He said desperately. "Yes, he is my brother, but I don’t know what he does in his family or how Ehuang was living until now."

"You knew that’s why you were so quick to inform Yu Long about her visit. You were afraid she might visit other doctors if you didn’t stop her."

"No, no!" He vigorously shook his head. "That wasn’t the reason. It’s just that Bro Long told me that if by any chance, Ehuang ever came to meet me or wanted to talk to me, I would inform him straightaway. That’s all!"

"That’s all? Aren’t you bound by medical confidentiality? Your niece comes to you as a patient. She was definitely afraid and you rat her out to her parents? Shouldn’t you have kept the visit private? You neither helped her as her Uncle nor as a responsible doctor! And then you say that’s all?"

"Look, you don’t understand..." Yu Heng gritted his teeth. "It was always hard for me to go against him, okay? He was always a bit...more controlling than necessary so I always did as I was told or things could get ugly with him. He has a bad temper."

"That’s even worse," Jia was speechless. "You are aware of your brother’s violent side, so you also understand how Ehuang might be living under a roof with such a person as her father. Yet you pushed her away and made her life miserable! How much of a coward can you be that you let an innocent girl suffer too?"

Yu Heng guiltily averted his gaze. "Th-that regret doesn’t let me sleep at night either..."

"Heh," she sneered. "Yeah sure, why not? Now if you don’t want to sleep in more regrets, just answer my questions truthfully. Did Ehuang’s accident really happen?"

"I promise, I have no clue about it! In fact, it has been the first time I am hearing since the court case started!"

"What? Don’t lie! You are her Uncle and you never came to know about such a horrific accident she went through? How is it possible that he wouldn’t talk even once about it with his own brother in all these years?"

"It’s the truth! I really don’t know. I am equally shocked to know this. Look, we really weren’t so close and considering his behavior, I usually kept my distance from him," he urged her to believe her.

Jia’s eyes squinted and she felt inclined to believe him.

"Then in that case, do you know about Dr. Shi Jietang? The same doctor who is in the limelight now because of the surgeries?"

Yu Heng slightly stiffened at that and his face lost some color.

She smiled. "Finally. You do know something."

"I-I really have nothing to do with it."

"Just start talking and don’t skip even a full stop," she warned.

He bit his nails and stammered. "P-promise me that I won’t be in trouble. Look, I don’t know what was happening, okay? But a few years ago...around ten or eleven years ago, I think? Bro asked me about a doctor who could do...th-things under the table if you know what I mean..."

Her eyes narrowed.

"Of course this was unethical and I did try to pry in, but he g-gave me an angry look and just ordered me to tell him if I knew about such a person...I was scared that he would beat me up if I lied to him, so I told him about Dr. Shi Jietang.

It was through a friend of a friend of a friend that I once got to hear some whispers of his shady practices. Bro said nothing after that and just left. That’s all! That’s really all I know, I promise! I had no idea that he would approach Dr. Shi Jietang wi-with such a horrible agenda in his mind!"
