Because Chen Yu achieved a breakthrough, the police finally did not have to continue the investigationboriously. ording to the information provided by the cancer-stricken real estate salesman, they quickly located the other individuals who wanted tomit suicide and brought them all back to the police station. Director Nan, who was behind the scenes orchestrating all this, was also arrested by the police.


    At this stage of the case, what remained was how to pry open the mouths of these suicidal individuals and Director Nan, and that was a matter for the police.


    As far as Chen Yu was concerned, he wasn''t interested in the ultimate oue of these cases. As a doctor, apart from feeling anger towards the mastermind who was exploiting other people''s lives for unspeakable purposes, he was more concerned with how exactly he should heal this real estate salesman whose cancer cells had spread throughout his body.


    The man''s physical condition was very poor, with cancer cells spread throughout his body, already causing damage to his organs and various physiological systems.


    His body was like a sieve full of holes, and also like a building full of cracks that could copse at any moment.


    While Chen Yu had managed to halt the "termites" gnawing away inside this crumbling building with medication, what he needed to focus on next was how to kill these "termites" and repair the building, allowing it to continue standing.


    Killing cancer cells is not without means; chemotherapy and radiotherapy are effective modern medical treatments for killing cancer cells.


    However, the approaches of chemotherapy and radiotherapy are somewhat crude.


    Because the life force of cancer cells is incredibly tenacious, even far surpassing that of normal cells, the killing of these cancer cells, whether through chemotherapy with chemical drugs or radiotherapy with radiation, inevitably leads to the death of normal cells as well.


    This is one of the reasons why cancer patients usually do not live very long. On one hand, there is the destruction caused by cancer cells to the patient''s body, and on the other, the treatment of cancer inevitably kills normal cells too.


    It''s like trying to get rid of termites in a house, but ending up setting the whole house on fire. Even though the termites are gone, the house is destroyed.


    If the patient''s physical condition were good, if he were a healthy, average middle-aged man, Chen Yu might have opted for radiotherapy or chemotherapy to treat him. This would reduce his lifespan by a few years, but at least it could cure him.


    But now, with the cancer in its advanced stages, cancer cells spread throughout the body, and having been dragged out for a long time, the patient''s body was already unable to bear the damage caused by chemotherapy or radiotherapy.


    If he were to forcibly undergo radiotherapy or chemotherapy, death would be waiting for this patient.


    Therefore, Chen Yu had toe up with a new method to treat him, killing the cancer cells inside his body while avoiding harm to his body.


    Without using Supernatural Power, this was also no small challenge for Chen Yu.

    "Professor, you called for me?" In Professor Kube''s office, Chen Yu greeted the professor seated behind the desk and also addressed the person sitting to the side with a friendly "Director Yamamoto."


    Professor Kube gave a slight nod to his proud disciple and asked directly without much small talk, "Mr. Chen Yu, I heard you took on ate-stage cancer patient referred by the Metropolitan Police Department, is that correct?"


    "Yes, Professor, he''s a suspect in an important case, so the police ce great importance on him; he was previously being treated at another hospital. But because the patient is in thete stage of stomach cancer and the cancer cells have spread throughout his body, the doctors at that hospital could only stabilize his condition, so he was transferred to me," Chen Yu understood from Professor Kube''s question what the matter was and quickly exined the situation.


    However, as soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, Director Yamamoto, who was sitting on a sofa, interjected, "Professor Chen Yu, have you considered the consequences?"


    "Consequences? What do you mean, Director Yamamoto?" Chen Yu furrowed his brow, understanding the implication behind Yamamoto Hisae''s words, but he nheless feigned ignorance and asked back.


    "Director Yamamoto is asking if you have considered what the consequences would be if this patient doesn''t get better and dies in our hospital," Professor Kube, seeing that Chen Yu was ying dumb, still pointed out Yamamoto Hisae''s concern, "Mr. Chen Yu, you are now a well-known professor at the Eastern University Affiliated Hospital, and without any surprises, you will be the head of General Surgery in this year''s chief professor elections. During such a time, you take on a patient already sentenced to death, have you not thought about the impact on your own and the hospital''s reputation if the patient dies here?"


    Since Professor Kube had spoken inly, Chen Yu no longer pretended to be unaware, especially since this was not something he had failed to consider—he had taken the case with confidence.


    So, Chen Yu exined to Professor Kube, "Of course I have considered this issue, which is precisely why I decided to take on this patient."


    "You took on this patient after considering it? Do you really think, Mr. Chen Yu, that you can cure a terminal patient whose cancer cells have spread throughout their body?" Yamamoto Hisae asked, as if questioning and simply curious at the same time.


    Facing the question from Yamamoto Hisae, Chen Yu nodded and said, "It''s not a sure bet, but I do have a certain level of confidence in healing this patient."


    "You''re confident?" Professor Kube showed a surprised expression and, after exchanging a nce with Yamamoto Hisae, asked, "Mr. Chen Yu, do you realize what you''re saying? Treating a terminal cancer patient who has been given a death sentence is an event of even greater significance than developing a broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug!"


    While the broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug cannot cure cancer, it only inhibits the activity of cancer cells, preventing the condition from worsening. For patients diagnosed early who are not suitable for surgical treatment, it is a tremendous blessing. The drug can also effectively increase the survival time and quality of life for patients in thete stages of cancer, but it is not aplete cure.


    Now, Chen Yu was talking about treating a patient with cancer cells that have spread, and the significance of this waspletely different. The former was merely postponing execution, while thetter was equivalent to acquittal.


    "You know me, Professor, I don''t engage in matters I''m not confident about. Taking on this patient involves a trial treatment programponent, after all, this treatment n is theoretically capable of treatingte-stage cancer patients. It has passed theoretical verification andb trials, but has not yet been applied clinically, so this is really just an experiment," Chen Yu exined to Professor Kube, while also making it clear that this was an experimental program.


    However, both Professor Kube and Yamamoto Hisae clearly did not believe it was merely an experiment, or, even if it was, it carried a different weight.


    "How confident are you?" Yamamoto Hisae looked at Chen Yu and asked the question that concerned her the most.
