Chapter 1406: Chapter 1,388 Dilemma

They first looked around in the car for a week, and after getting out of the car, the five of them met at one place, keeping some distance from each other. They quickly walked towards the hospital in a formation that prevented them from being caught all at once.

Kiev Municipal Sixth Hospital, by the name Gao Yang thought this hospital would be large, but upon reaching the hospital, he found that the environment was nice, with big trees everywhere, but the buildings were scattered among the greenery, and there were hardly any people inside.

Rushing into the outpatient building, not seeing any of Shava’s men, Gao Yang couldn’t be bothered to make a call. He quickly walked up to a doctor in a white coat and said in a low voice, “Someone with a gunshot wound was brought here, where would they be?”

Seeing Gao Yang’s dark expression, the doctor was momentarily stunned, then he replied in a low voice, “Definitely in the emergency room.”

Gao Yang frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “Where is the emergency room? Forget it, take me there.”

The doctor pointed in a direction, saying quietly, “The emergency room is over there, just go in that direction, it’s close.”

The emergency room was unexpectedly separate from the outpatient building and quite far, not visible to each other. After cursing inwardly, Gao Yang hurried out of the outpatient building and jogged in the direction the doctor pointed, feeling he had run a long way before seeing a two-story building hidden among the trees.

“Damn it, so much land and so few people!”

Seeing the ambulance in front of the emergency building and cars parked haphazardly everywhere, Gao Yang knew he had found the right place. After cursing in annoyance, he quickened his pace and ran into the emergency building.

The emergency building was not large, and it had been taken over by a group of fierce-looking people. When Gao Yang entered, it felt like stepping into a gang fight scene, with many people even holding rifles and shouting loudly.

“The doctors here are not good, we must send the boss to another hospital immediately!”

“Shut up, doctor! Where’s the doctor? How’s our boss?”

Two doctors were surrounded by a group of fierce men, trying to comforting them, while another doctor pushing a cart struggled to squeeze through the crowd.

Although it was a newly rising gang, not much stronger than small thugs, looking at the chaotic crowd, Gao Yang couldn’t help but shout, “Quiet!”

Many of Shava’s close subordinates recognized Gao Yang, and seeing his arrival, Shava’s already chaotic junior brothers suddenly surrounded Gao Yang.

“Peter, Shava’s been shot!”

“His condition doesn’t look good, we need to retaliate.”

Gao Yang raised his voice and shouted, “Quiet! Speak one at a time, why are all of you squeezed in here? Leaders stay, everyone else out! Wait outside, don’t shout anymore.”

Gao Yang was quite authoritative now, and after calling out a few times with a stern face, Shava’s group was quickly ushered out, leaving only a few leaders inside. Gao Yang urgently asked, “How is Shava doing?”

Alyosha, who had interacted with Gao Yang quite a bit, said with a bitter face, “We don’t know, it looks serious. One doctor said he might not make it and suggested we go to another hospital, but another doctor said there’s no time.”

A lot of time was wasted on the way, but Gao Yang thought since Shava was sent to a big hospital, it should be fine. If the injury can’t be helped, then even immortals wouldn’t have a solution, if the injury can be saved, getting into a hospital should solve the problem. But now it seems that wasn’t the case.

Gao Yang stopped Alyosha from speaking further with a gesture, then turned to the frightened doctors and asked, “What’s the condition of the injured?”

The doctor, trembling slightly, said, “Not good, it’s unclear now, the surgery has been going on for a while, but the injured’s condition is very bad. He was shot in the neck, with massive blood loss that can’t be stopped. Now we can only rely on heavy blood transfusions to prevent death and brain death due to lack of blood. Also, his esophagus and trachea were both damaged. Overall, his condition is very challenging.”

Gao Yang said nothing next; it was Andy He’s matter now.

Andy He took a step forward and shouted, “Is he dead?”

The doctor paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, “No, he shouldn’t be dead yet…”

Andy He looked at Gao Yang urgently and said, “Shava definitely wasn’t hit in the carotid artery, otherwise he would have died already. But the bleeding won’t stop, there must be a ruptured vessel inside. The neck area is too critical and fragile, the situation really looks bad now.”

Gao Yang, somewhat frustrated, said, “If he dies, he dies, but if not, I thought coming to a hospital meant he would be fine. F**k, this hospital is useless, the doctors are useless too. Alright, get to work quickly.”

Andy He took off his backpack while turning to Albert and asked, “Are you familiar with this surgery?”

Albert also took off his emergency bag and nodded, “Familiar, no problem as an assistant, better than the people here.”

Andy He immediately said to the doctor, “Take me to the operating room.”

The doctor nervously said, “But…”

Alyosha pointed the gun at the doctor and shouted, “You don’t hear me, do you?”

Gao Yang frowned and said, “Keep it down, doctor, take him, quickly.”

The doctor turned and ran towards the operating room, Andy He and Albert closely following, Gao Yang couldn’t help but follow as well. After a few quick steps, they reached the operating room. While the doctor was still hesitating, Andy He pushed the door open and went inside.

Shrieks and reprimands immediately came from inside, but Andy He’s reprimanding voice was even louder.

“You’re doing it wrong! Fools! Villains, bring out our meds, their meds won’t do, I’m doing the surgery, sterilize! F**k!”

Albert and Andy He ran out again, Albert holding the doctor with one hand and carrying an emergency kit with the other, not stopping even after exiting the operating room, only shouting loudly while running, “The doctor is terrible, Shava can be saved, just hope we’re still in time, we’re going to sterilize…”

Albert spoke in English, Alyosha nervously said, “What is he saying?”

“The doctor can’t do it, but Shava can still be saved, we’re taking over Shava’s surgery.”

Alyosha said angrily, “This hospital is no good, as I said, we should have transferred.”

Gao Yang said in a low voice, “Shut up, this is not the time for shouting, tell your people to stay quiet, we wait outside, Shava still has hope.”

After saying that, Gao Yang looked at the few people who dared not breathe a word and asked, “Who was with Shava when he got shot?”

Alyosha said quietly, “Me, I was with Shava.”

Gao Yang said gravely, “Alright, tell me what happened.”

Alyosha swallowed and said quietly, “This morning, someone came to us, said he wanted to discuss some business with Shava, the location was agreed upon at a place very close to here, and then we went at the agreed time.”

Gao Yang shook his head, “Wait, tell me in detail, who arranged this for you?”

Alyosha said angrily, “Mogilevich, he said he wanted to talk business with Shava, Shava respected Mogilevich a lot, thought there wouldn’t be any danger, so he went. After we arrived, besides Mogilevich, there was an American. They talked about some other business first, but eventually, the American said he wanted to use our fleet. Shava said he’d consider it, the atmosphere was not pleasant, and then after we left, Shava got shot.”

At this moment, Andy He, dressed in full surgical gear, mask, and gloves, rushed back into the operating room, followed a moment later by Albert similarly dressed.

Gao Yang waved his hand and said softly to Alyosha, “Don’t disturb their surgery, let’s talk outside, also tell me about this Mogilevich.”

Talking while walking, Alyosha said lowly, “Mogilevich is an old guy, he’s the biggest gang leader in Kyiv, but he hasn’t been doing much business in Kyiv lately, because his business has grown large, laundering money, trafficking organs and people to Western Europe.”

Gao Yang frowned, “Trafficking organs? And people?”

Alyosha waved his hand and said quietly, “Yes, taking women to Western Europe, I don’t know the specifics of the organ business, but this time, Mogilevich tried to get Shava involved.”

Gao Yang shook his head quietly, “Then what’s he looking to do with your transportation fleet?”

Alyosha said quietly, “Transporting weapons, he said he’s helping a friend find a fleet, knew we have one, so asked us to help transport the weapons.”

Gao Yang thought it was Djo Malthael’s men who directly acted against Shava, but now it seems it wasn’t Djo himself, it was a local Kyiv gang, just not sure if this Mogilevich is linked with Djo.

It was getting more complicated, Gao Yang couldn’t help but shake his head, then he said quietly, “What do you plan to do? How strong is Mogilevich’s force?”

Alyosha said angrily, “We must retaliate, Mogilevich invited us for negotiations but took advantage, shameless, we have to strike back. As for his strength, certainly not as strong as ours. Mogilevich hasn’t been into fighting for a long time, in terms of manpower and firepower, we are definitely stronger.”

Gao Yang felt a bit of a headache, even if Mogilevich’s forces are big, he doesn’t care, because Mogilevich can only be considered a local force. He’s wary of Djo Malthael, this globally powerful arms tycoon, but he’s not afraid of a local force like Mogilevich.

The only thing worth considering is that Mogilevich might have colluded with Djo Malthael, if provoking Mogilevich would lead to involving Djo, and Gao Yang was trying to avoid direct conflict with Djo Malthael.

After pondering for a long time, Gao Yang decided he still had to act, although he didn’t want to confront Djo Malthael directly, Shava was working for him, if not a direct subordinate, was almost there. Now that his subordinate was in trouble, as the boss, he wanted to stand up for Shava.

No matter what the relationship between Mogilevich and Djo Malthael is, Gao Yang has to act if he wants to stand up for his subordinate. However, he’s very close to Grand Ivan, Uriyangko, Ivan, and others. He decides to move opportunistically, temporarily not getting involved in the war between Grand Ivan and Djo Malthael. If he gets involved just to regain face for Shava, wouldn’t that be absurd? (To be continued.
