Chapter 38: Is Human Blood Mantou Delicious?

"Your Honor, he forged evidence! I request professional appraisal!" Tang Fuming panicked.

At that time, after using the spectrometer to conduct a chemical element test on Zhu Lin, Tang Fuming destroyed that spectral detection chart immediately. Then, by using the trick of substituting a fake for the real, he replaced it with the spectral detection chart of a normal person.

But where did the chemical element spectral detection chart in Lin Chuan's hands come from?

Tang Fuming was careful and destroyed the evidence himself. His memory was definitely correct. Therefore, the only possibility that came to Tang Fuming's mind was that this spectral detection chart was forged!

"The defendant Tang Fuming's request is reasonable."

"The plaintiff's lawyer, please submit the evidence to the law enforcement officer. A professional will conduct an appraisal and assessment later."

Presiding Judge Nie Zhengyang struck the gavel.

The law enforcement officer walked to the plaintiff's seat, and Lin Chuan handed over all the evidence with full confidence. The staff responsible for appraisal began to check the spectral chart and the hospital's admission records with professional instruments.

During this period, Lin Chuan did not stop his offensive.

"Dean Tang."

"As a medical authority, you lack medical ethics."

"Facing Zhu Lin, who was on the verge of death."

"You knew that a bottle of Prussian blue costing only ten yuan could save her life."

"Why did you choose to remain silent?"

"Did someone give you benefits?"

"Or, for your career, could you regard patients' lives as worthless?"

Lin Chuan bombarded with questions like a machine gun, but the defendant Tang Fuming turned a deaf ear. He stared intently at the evidence submitted by Lin Chuan. Before the appraisal results came out, he would not answer any more of Lin Chuan's questions.

However, what Lin Chuan said next made Tang Fuming's pupils tremble violently.

"In the spring of 1997."

"You published a paper on thallium poisoning in The Lancet."

"At that time."

"This was the first paper on thallium poisoning in China, and you became famous because of it."

"From the deputy director of the Department of Internal Medicine at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, you were directly promoted to the director."

"Later on."

"With the help of a benefactor, your career soared."

"Doctor Tang."

"I sincerely want to ask you a question."

"Is human blood mantou really delicious?"

When Lin Chuan said this, Tang Fuming's pupils underwent a huge shock. At the same time, the live broadcast comments section exploded.

"Damn it, if Lin Chuan is not fabricating rumors, and Tang Fuming knew that Zhu Lin was suffering from thallium poisoning but did not rescue her..."

"It was for publishing a paper in The Lancet!"

"I am a doctor in a third-class hospital."

"To my knowledge, at that time, not only were there few papers on thallium poisoning in China, but even relevant foreign literature was incomplete."

"If a domestic doctor really had the opportunity."

"To observe all the data of a thallium poisoning patient and their clinical symptoms."

"And be the first to write it into a paper."

"He would not only become famous in China but also gain international acclaim."

"This is a huge temptation!"

"Even if it were me... I might not be able to hold on to the bottom line of being a doctor."

...

In the live broadcast room, the audience basically understood why Lin Chuan targeted Zhu Lin's attending physician. If it was just because of insufficient medical skills, which delayed Zhu Lin's treatment time, there was nothing to pursue.

But if, as Lin Chuan said, Tang Fuming, for his career and future, coldly chose to stand by and do nothing, knowing that Zhu Lin was suffering from thallium poisoning, just to be the first to try something new.

Then the nature of the matter changed; it was definitely eating human blood mantou!

"You... you are slandering me!"

"I did not stand by and do nothing; your heart is too dark... The paper in 1997, if I didn't write it, someone else would have."

"Rather than letting foreign doctors take the lead."

"It's better for me to write it first and bring honor to the country."

"This is a patriotic act!"

Tang Fuming clenched his fists excitedly, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

At the same time, the appraisal results of the evidence submitted by Lin Chuan came out, and the court identified it as genuine!

When Presiding Judge Nie Zhengyang announced the verdict, Tang Fuming, the vice president of Wanhe Hospital, could no longer hold on. Suddenly, he burst into tears, and the murky tears dripped onto the ground.

The courtroom was silent.

All eyes were focused on this medical authority.

Thirty years ago, he should have used a scalpel to treat patients. However, due to a momentary lapse of judgment, he turned the scalpel into a murder weapon.

"Bastard! Old bastard, you heartless dog!"

"This is too scary. I never thought that in Tang Fuming's eyes, Zhu Lin was just an experimental specimen."

"I'm afraid that when Zhu Lin was sent to Wanhe Hospital, in Tang Fuming's eyes, she was already a corpse."

"For career advancement, are there really doctors who are so heartless?"

"This is too despicable; he ate Zhu Lin's human blood mantou. This behavior is even more hateful than a poisoner."

...

The live broadcast room was full of curses.

Three minutes later, Tang Fuming dried his tears. He hunched his body and dared not look directly at the camera, looking like a mouse in the sunlight at this moment.

"I'm... sorry!"

"Lin Chuan is right. Back then, I was blinded by greed and did not rescue Zhu Lin in time."

"I'm sorry to Zhu Lin!"

"I'm sorry to the Zhu family!"

"For thirty years, my conscience has been tormented day and night, and I have never had a good night's sleep."

"Today."

"I can finally sleep peacefully."

Tang Fuming choked up as he knelt on the ground. Facing the ironclad evidence, he could no longer argue, nor did he want to.

Although Tang Fuming's career reached a higher position because of that paper.

But the flowers and applause could not cover up the thirty years of torment in his heart.

"The defendant Tang Fuming has confessed to the crimes committed in the Zhu Lin case without denial."

"Now order the law enforcement officer to take him into custody."

"During the sentencing phase of the trial, the judge and jury will discuss together, weighing and analyzing the sentencing from multiple perspectives."

Presiding Judge Nie Zhengyang struck the gavel heavily. He never expected that beneath the glamorous clothes of a medical authority lay a broken and rotten shell.

"Yes!"

The law enforcement police immediately stepped forward and put silver handcuffs on Tang Fuming.

"As expected."

"Rather than implicating the Jiang family, he would rather bear the crime alone."

Lin Chuan sighed softly.

According to the truth he knew, the thallium poisoning paper report was only one aspect of Tang Fuming's motive for not rescuing Zhu Lin. On the other hand, the Jiang family had promised that as long as Tang Fuming did not treat Zhu Lin, they could provide support for his career.

"Defendant Tang Fuming, do you have any additional statements?"

"If not."

"Please continue with the next request, plaintiff's lawyer."

Presiding Judge Nie Zhengyang's gaze fell on Tang Fuming.

After thinking for a while, Tang Fuming wanted to seek a lighter sentence, so he spoke up.

"Your Honor."

"When Zhu Lin was brought to the hospital, after my examination, she was already beyond help."

"Even if I had injected her with Prussian blue at that time."

"It would have been mostly futile."

"Her brainstem and cerebral lobes were damaged to varying degrees."

"Even if Prussian blue was injected to remove the thallium from her body, her brain would not return to normal levels."

"Therefore."

"At that time, I considered that even if she were saved, she would become a vegetable."

"It's better to let her die with dignity."

"I made this decision under these circumstances, so can my sentence be lighter?"

Tang Fuming wanted a lighter sentence and explained his thoughts at the time.

"Bastard!"

But Zhu Jiangguo on the plaintiff's seat couldn't stand it anymore and rolled up his sleeves to hit Tang Fuming.

"Order! No unauthorized actions are allowed in the courtroom!"

Nie Zhengyang struck the gavel immediately.

Taking control of the courtroom.

At this moment, Lin Chuan suddenly spoke out in reprimand.

"As a doctor."

"You only have the duty to save lives and help the injured; you have no right to decide who lives or dies."

"Only the law."

"Can determine a person's life and death!"
