Masterful Miracle Doctor

Chapter 1115 - 1075: A Clue

After hearing Shen Lanruo's words, Lin Jie lost all sleepiness, sat back down, and asked in a serious tone, "Lanruo, can you tell me what exactly happened?"After a moment of silence, Shen Lanruo said with a haunting tone, "I told you before that I did illegal medical practices in the United States, performing heart surgeries and even heart transplants privately."

"But as my skills and reputation grew, I didn't want to be involved in such things anymore."

"However, some things aren't so easy to walk away from. I once thought the car accident I was involved in was orchestrated by the crime syndicate controlling underground medical practices."

"They're powerful, and I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want you to be entangled with them in any way."

"Today, after hearing what Elenna said, I suddenly realized that my accident might have been masterminded by a pharmaceutical company."

Lin Jie couldn't help but ask, "Lanruo, what major achievement did you make that could cause a pharmaceutical company to lose a huge amount of money?"

"It wasn't my achievement, it was Dr. Alek Gavin's."

Lin Jie quickly grabbed his phone, typing Alek Gavin's name.

The search page instantly showed a full screen of search results.

Lin Jie quickly skimmed through it, opening the page with the words about Mayo Clinic's neurology expert Alek Gavin.

The webpage briefly introduced that Alek Gavin was an outstanding neurology expert, mainly researching epilepsy.

Later, due to a lab accident, he passed away unexpectedly three years ago at the age of forty-five.

"Lanruo, is this Alek Gavin?"

Shen Lanruo gave a soft "hmm" in Lin Jie's mind and said, "It's him."

"Before he passed away, my relationship with him was quite close, to outsiders, we seemed like a couple."

"Therefore, I had some understanding of his research progress."

"One day, he excitedly told me he had discovered a cure for epilepsy, saying he was going to make a fortune."

"But shortly after, he had an accident in the lab."

"In that accident, he and his two assistants unfortunately passed away."

Shen Lanruo slowly said, "Afterward, I reviewed Alek Gavin's research results, but they were just some immature designs, aiming to treat epilepsy with electric stimulation therapy."

"To outsiders, we were in a romantic relationship, but I know our relationship was just physical needs and mutual benefits."

"I didn't think much about his unexpected passing."

"But shortly after Alek Gavin passed away, someone came to probe, asking if Alek had ever shown me or kept any of his research results with me!"

"My answer, naturally, was no!"

Shen Lanruo's long sigh came to Lin Jie's mind, "Later, my apartment was broken into, things were rummaged through, but nothing was stolen."

"If I had been more alert then, maybe the things that happened later wouldn't have."

Shen Lanruo warned solemnly, "A-Jie, you know, many epilepsy patients need long-term medication, even lifelong medication."

"If Alek truly developed a cure for epilepsy, the pharmaceutical company's loss would be immense."

Lin Jie pondered and said, "Lanruo, are you suggesting Alek was silenced by the pharmaceutical company because he developed a cure for epilepsy?"

"The pharmaceutical company was worried that you might have this research result, so they decided to silence you too?"

Shen Lanruo's heavy hum came from Lin Jie's mind, "A-Jie, you might think I have a persecution complex."

"But I know Alek as a person."

"When he told me he succeeded, the excitement and thrill were indescribable, something I had never seen from him before."

"So I think he must have made a significant breakthrough in his research."

"Yet I found no trace of such research results in his belongings."

Lin Jie continued her words, "Alek's research results were destroyed or secretly hidden?"

"Currently, this assumption fits reality," Shen Lanruo reminded again, "A-Jie, don't imagine society to be too perfect."

"This involves billions, even tens of billions in US Dollar losses, enough to drive any company crazy."

Reminded repeatedly by Shen Lanruo, Lin Jie also grew anxious and said, "Lanruo, at least the domestic security environment is okay."

"My experimental therapy should have mainly touched the interests of foreign pharmaceutical giants, causing minimal impact on domestic pharmaceutical companies."

"Lanruo, don't worry. I won't easily leave Guan Muhua and Qin Gang's protection zone in the future."

"As for going abroad, I won't do it even if I'm dead."

Lin Jie thought of something again and cheekily asked, "Lanruo, do you really know nothing about Alek's research results?"

"If it can truly cure epilepsy, that research would be of Nobel Prize level!"

"I'm in this situation. Is there any need to hide from you?"

Shen Lanruo softly said, "Foreigners place special emphasis on intellectual property. Especially regarding major interests, they won't easily tell me."

After hearing this, Lin Jie wasn't too disappointed.

After all, those weren't his research results, and whether they exist is still an unknown number.

Lin Jie returned to the bedroom and found An Kexin asleep.

After washing up, he gently got into bed, holding An Kexin, and smelled the comforting familiar scent, gradually drifting into a dream...

Not knowing how much time had passed, in a daze, Lin Jie heard someone calling, "A-Jie, wake up..."

"Wake up..."

Lin Jie jolted awake, finally realizing this voice was coming from his mind.

Looking at the dark bedroom, sensing the calm breathing of the person in his arms, Lin Jie silently complained, "Lanruo, what urgent matter do you have? Can't it wait until the morning?"

"You brat, do you want to know about Alek's research results?"

Lin Jie asked with surprise, "Lanruo, did you remember?"

Shen Lanruo said proudly, "You can bury your head in sleep while I don't need rest, so I began recalling everything related to Alek."

"While recalling, I found that all scenes with Alek were like a movie, clearly vivid."

"I indeed thought of a lead."

Shen Lanruo excitedly said, "Besides his work and personal email, Alek had an email unknown to outsiders."

"I just realized he once logged into an email I didn't know about when recalling just now."

"A-Jie, perhaps Alek stored the research results in that email."

Lin Jie became very interested, quietly got out of bed, muttering, "Lanruo, let's go to the study now and turn on the computer to verify..."
