Chapter 617: Chapter 625: Good Doctor

"A good orthopedic doctor definitely exists; finding a good doctor for you won’t be difficult."

In a place as large as Kiev, how could good doctors not exist? Therefore, Justin’s reply wasn’t surprising.

"Buddy, help me find a doctor who treats customers, no matter the cost I will pay it."

Justin spoke slowly, "It’s just finding a doctor, I can do that for free for you. That’s just helping each other out, but..."

Justin dragged out his words, then slowly continued, "There’s something you need to give me an explanation for. We sold the gold, and then that batch of gold was robbed. In Rome, a wall was blown open with explosives. I asked if it was you who did it, and you said no, but now you’re telling me McDonald is with you, could you give me a reasonable explanation?"

Justin finally brought up the matter.

Yang Yi immediately said, "What’s wrong with McDonald? Does he have a problem?"

Justin replied very calmly, "Forget I asked."

Yang Yi urgently said, "No, well, I’ll just tell it straight. McDonald is someone we met in Rome; he’s a demolition expert. I want to invite him to join the Organization of Water because a demolition expert is very valuable. Does he have any issues?"

McDonald’s presence in the Organization of Water could not be concealed forever, it’s something that could be hidden temporarily but not indefinitely.

Yang Yi and his team had met with Jethro in Paris, and Justin was in contact with Jethro. This meant that if Justin investigated, he would definitely realize Yang Yi had been absent from Ukraine for a period, and given the depth of cooperation between the Organization of Water and Justin, McDonald’s presence would inevitably be unveiled. It was better to tell Justin proactively than to be discovered and suspected later.

If Yang Yi didn’t want Justin to know, he wouldn’t have mentioned it at all.

Moreover, if the cleaner’s services hadn’t been prohibitively expensive, Yang Yi wouldn’t have asked for Justin’s help this time. But he had underestimated the influence of the name McDonald, so Justin’s asking price was just as insufferably high, and this was not within Yang Yi’s planned scope of action.

Yang Yi’s forthrightness somewhat unsettled Justin.

Because if the gold had really been robbed by Yang Yi’s group and the demolition was done by McDonald, then Yang Yi wouldn’t have so easily pushed McDonald to the forefront. Think about it, Justin had already been suspecting Yang Yi of stealing the gold. It hadn’t been many days since, and now Yang Yi was pushing forward a demolition expert to be sent to Germany—that would be like seeking death.

Justin was silent for a good while before he finally said, "There’s no problem with McDonald. As long as you dare to use him, that’s fine. Also, why is McDonald in Kiev?"

Yang Yi was very straightforward, "I don’t know, really don’t know."

Justin didn’t ask further, merely saying softly, "Hmm, if you don’t know, then forget it. However, since you know McDonald’s identity and still dare to use him, I admire you for that. But, there’s something I have to warn you about."

"Go ahead."

"McDonald has a student, um, you can use McDonald or choose not to, but it’d be best if you don’t entertain the idea of killing him to silence him afterward, because you can’t afford to offend his student."

"I have no intention of killing to silence anyone, especially since I haven’t used him yet. Actually, this matter is very complex. It’s not that I have to use him, but thank you for the warning."

Justin stated indifferently, "I’ll contact the doctor for you now. Remember to inform me in time if there’s any news. That’s all, goodbye."

Justin hung up the phone, and Yang Yi went to find McDonald, saying with a wry smile, "You don’t need to go to Germany anymore."

A smile slowly formed on McDonald’s face as he said, "Oh, is that so?"

Yang Yi shrugged, "Yes, and there’s something else I need to tell you, hmm, the person who bought our intelligence suspects it was us who took the gold. He has no reason to trace it back to the source, but you definitely need to keep it a secret. We need to get our story straight."

McDonald smiled and replied, "Just tell me a lie, and I’ll follow along."

Being old and cunning, McDonald did not need much explanation; he knew what to do better than anyone, so Yang Yi did not have to spell everything out to him. It was rather McDonald who could be teaching him.

After the two quickly concocted a lie and aligned their story, Justin’s call came through.

"Kiev Military District Hospital, go there, they have the best orthopedic surgeon."

Zhang Yong’s suggestion was to find a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, but where could Yang Yi find one in Kiev? Finding the best orthopedic surgeon in Kiev, let alone Ukraine, would be doing Tuya justice.

After putting down the phone, Yang Yi said to Rodriguez, "Take Tuya, we’re leaving."

The two of them took Tuya to the Kiev Military District Hospital, found the doctor who was waiting for them, and followed the standard procedure. After waiting for the radiographs, when the doctor saw the films, he did not hesitate and said, "Surgery."

Surgery is more troublesome and recovery tends to be slower, so Yang Yi still held out hope and asked, "Is it possible to avoid surgery?"

Good doctors often have quite the temper.

The doctor scoffed at Yang Yi’s request and said while patting the radiograph, "The displacement of his fracture is very significant! If we don’t operate, the broken bone might grow back misaligned. Then, what? Let his arm deform?"

Yang Yi hesitated because, in his mind, fractures seem like they could heal without surgery. Why did it seem necessary here?

After a moment’s hesitation, Yang Yi decided to reach out to Justin again, so he called and whispered, "The doctor says surgery is essential, but I don’t want it. Do you know any doctor who can set bones without operating? I don’t mind if it’s far or expensive."

Yang Yi was calling with the faint hope that if Justin said it wasn’t possible, he would accept it and go through with the surgery—it was just a matter of the treatment plan. However, Justin’s response took him completely by surprise.

"A doctor who can mend bones without surgery? Hmm, there is such a doctor here in Kiev, but, but..."

Yang Yi was quite astonished for a while before responding, "But what?"

"I don’t know if he can help, hmm, and asking for his help is quite troublesome. Let me make a phone call first."

Justin called back after not too long and said in a low voice, "My friend agrees to help, but you don’t need to go. Just hand over the patient to my people, and they’ll take him."

It felt like finding a doctor was like making contact with a spy. While Yang Yi was hesitating, Justin said, "You will not find a better doctor than him. If it weren’t for our very good relationship, you would never be able to get him to help, so think it over carefully."

Yang Yi didn’t hesitate anymore and said softly, "Okay, please ask your doctor friend for help, thank you."
