Chapter 427: Exposed
Tang Wenyi and Xingwei Medical Group were just as bad as each other! This infectious disease had made everyone anxious and panicky, but they actually played the role of adding fuel to the fire! How could they betray the trust of the people? How could they accept such dirty money? Did their conscience get eaten by dogs?
Dr. Li had always been kind-hearted, and he had saved countless people. This was the first time he had seen such a thing! In his anger, he slammed the table, scaring the young nurse who had just walked to the door! She carefully knocked on the wooden door and said, “… Dr. Li, the patient who was just sent here has stopped breathing.”
This was what they had expected, but when she thought of the old man’s painful struggle before his death and how he kept muttering that he did not want to die, her heart could not help but ache. Hence, she placed the newly printed death certificate on the table and said, “It’s strange.
He clearly didn’t look like he wanted to die, but why did he consume so much poison? Could it be that something major happened at home?”
Dr. Li suddenly raised his voice and said with an ugly expression, “He didn’t commit suicide! This was a planned murder! That village chief was killed! He… he didn’t have to die! If I had sensed that something was wrong earlier, perhaps many people would have survived.”
The nurse was stunned when she heard this. What murder? Could there be something else behind this? According to what Dr. Li said, did someone force the old man to take this poison? But what was the purpose? It couldn’t have been to save money by using ordinary people for drug tests, right?
She looked at the doctor who had lost control of his emotions and thought that he was thinking too much. She comforted him. “You don’t have to bear such a huge psychological pressure. Everyone has their own fate. We’ve already done our best. I see that you’re not in a good state. Why don’t you apply for a few days of leave from the higher-ups and come to work after you’ve managed your emotions?”
She paused for a moment before continuing, “Besides, how can murder be so easily determined? This is the 21st century. Evidence is important. Without evidence, others won’t believe you. Besides, you’re too sensitive, right? The old man was advanced in years. Perhaps he was destined to die?”
Dr. Li’s eyes gradually turned red as she said, “The poison you’re talking about is the infectious disease prevention medicine made by Xingwei! As for the evidence, I have it too. Take a look! This is the drug composition and scale chart that I got someone to test. More than 60% of it is starch. Is this still considered medicine?! It doesn’t even meet the criteria to be so!”
With that, he handed the report to the nurse. The nurse took it doubtfully. She was still thinking that as a large pharmaceutical company, Xingwei wouldn’t dare to do this. When she saw the number in red on the report, her eyes widened in disbelief. Damn! They really dared?!
She swallowed her saliva. What fools! She had not forgotten that Tang Wenyi had promoted the medicine on Golden TV Station! How many people would have seen it? How many people would believe it without a doubt? This fake medicine is lethal! The fresh corpse of the village chief is the best example!
It was as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over her. She had thought that the Xingwei Preventive Medicine was the only antidote for infectious diseases in the country, but now, the truth told her that it was fake! The natural disease wreaking havoc, compounded by this man-made calamity… How many people would die?
She struggled to speak. “Doctor, what are you going to do?”
“I want the truth out!”
Dr. Li said firmly, “Aren’t they playing the ignorant people like monkeys? Sooner or later, they will have to pay the price for their arrogance and contempt! I don’t mind taking the lead. At least it will make it easier for those who come later. It’s easier to have a direction than to spin around like a headless fly!”
Seeing that he was so obstinate, the nurse knew that she could not dissuade him. That was Xingwei Medical Group! And the Tang family in Beijing! The former was not something they could resist as ordinary people, what more the latter! She seemed to want to say something, but in the end, the words just stuck in her throat and she could not say anything.
She murmured, “Why bother?”
“Indeed. Why bother? If I didn’t know the truth and the village chief died under dubious circumstances, perhaps I wouldn’t have interfered in this matter. But since I’ve already investigated and found out the truth, I’m obligated to set the record straight. Do you want me to turn a blind eye? I can’t do it!”
Even if I provoke and offend people, so what? Getting the truth out to another person means saving another life! This is not a loss! Thinking of this, Dr. Li’s eyes lit up.
…
Just as Tang Wenyi was still immersed in the joy of earning money, an unexpected call came. She answered the call without looking up. “Hello, this is Tang Wenyi. What’s the matter? If it’s not an emergency, then later…”
“Something… something happened!”
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Lu Yaohua’s flustered voice.
Her brows instantly furrowed, and her displeasure was obvious. She clicked her tongue and said coldly, “Lu Yaohua, did you provoke someone outside again? I don’t have time to clean up your mess now. If you really can’t do it, go find Xingwei.”
If she could throw this troublemaker out, she would be very happy.
Lu Yaohua hurriedly explained, “Previously, didn’t we go to my hometown to promote the preventive drug? I thought that everything would be fine, but who knew that an epidemic would erupt there! Now the village chief is dead. The doctors there found out the cause of death and posted it online!
What should we do? If we get exposed for making fake medicine, won’t we be doomed?!”
He might even have to spend the rest of his life in prison! Moreover, wouldn’t all his efforts during this period be in vain? The money he had worked so hard to earn would go to someone else! Just thinking about it made him quite sad!
As for Tang Wenyi, her lips were pale and her pupils constricted! It was not that she had not expected this to happen, but it was too fast. After she forced herself to calm down, she immediately opened the link sent by Lu Yaohua. The first thing she saw was a long blog article! It was followed by the name of the blogger.
Dr. Li?
I’ve never heard of him. His medical skills are probably not that good, right? She seemed to have thought of something and shook her head. Perhaps he’s smart. Otherwise, how could he be the first person to discover that we are making fake medicine?
