15: Can be cured, the little girl provides clues

Ye Lin was almost choked with anger; what kind of habit was this, why did she always kneel for no reason?

There was nothing Ye Lin could do but pull her up.

But this time, Xiao Taimei seemed to have made up her mind; she refused to get up, "If you don't agree, I won't get up."

"Alright, alright, Little Sister, you win, okay?" Ye Lin was completely speechless.

"Then I'll take you to our house to see my younger brother now; it's not far, just in Hengxi Village." Xiao Taimei almost jumped for joy when she heard Ye Lin agree.

She looked at Ye Lin with hopeful eyes.

Ye Lin, having lived two lives, felt a touch of emotion looking into such sincere eyes.

"At noon, you can take me during the lunch break." Ye Lin checked the time; it was almost noon. He was going to treat an illness, not investigate a case, so he felt it would be improper to use work time.

"Okay, then Police Miracle Doctor, I'll wait for you at the village entrance at noon." Xiao Taimei received Ye Lin's promise and left happily.

Police Miracle Doctor?

That doesn't sound bad...

At noon, the brothers from the Criminal Police Department hadn't returned yet; it seemed there was still a lot to do over there.

Ye Lin hastily ate a few mouthfuls of rice and then left. Although the Police Station didn't have a specific lunch break, generally, there was about an hour for eating.

At the entrance of Hengxi Village, Xiao Taimei was already there, eagerly awaiting.

"Police Miracle Doctor, over here, over here!" As soon as she saw Ye Lin, Xiao Taimei excitedly shouted.

Ye Lin shrank his neck. Damn, it was a good thing he came out in plain clothes. If he had been wearing his police uniform, he would have been utterly embarrassed.

He pulled Xiao Taimei over.

"Shut your mouth and hurry up; I'm short on time."

"Oh, oh." Xiao Taimei obediently led the way.

After several twists and turns in Hengxi Village, they finally arrived in front of a local rental house.

"My younger brother and I rent a room here."

Ye Lin took a quick look; it was a typical local residence, a three or four-story building, with the landlord living on one floor and all other floors divided into small rooms for rent.

Xiao Taimei led Ye Lin to a small room on the second floor, which looked to be about seven or eight square meters and had two beds.

On one of the beds lay a pale young man, who looked like a high school student.

"Police Miracle Doctor, this is my younger brother. Can you take a look? I'll earn money to pay you back later." Having finally managed to get Ye Lin to come, Xiao Taimei became nervous.

Ye Lin didn't respond; he walked to the bedside.

The young man on the bed propped himself up with both hands, looking at Ye Lin with confusion.

This person looks so young; shouldn't miracle doctors all be old men?

He looked doubtfully at Xiao Taimei, afraid that his sister had been scammed. In the past two years, his sister had been scammed quite a bit, and the little money they had left was spent on treating his leg.

"Younger brother, this is a real miracle doctor, a Police Officer from the Police Station, not a swindler." Xiao Taimei clearly understood her younger brother's thoughts.

The words 'Police Officer' gave her younger brother a lot of trust. The reputation of the police in Great Xia was quite good; 'call the police if you need help' wasn't just a casual saying.

He cooperatively lifted the blanket, revealing his bare legs.

Ye Lin didn't mind these things. Although he ultimately didn't study medicine, as a medical family, the saying 'a doctor's heart is like a parent's' was something his grandfather had forced him to memorize since he was a child.

And he himself strongly endorsed this philosophy.

The young man in front of him had his lower legs twisted at an unnatural angle, which should have been caused by a tibial fracture of the lower leg.

The fracture site was still swollen, but the lower part of his calves already showed some muscle atrophy, likely due to insufficient blood supply and lack of muscle movement.

"Police Miracle Doctor, my younger brother's legs were broken when he fell while working on a construction site. The boss only compensated 5,000 yuan. The hospital doctors said it required major surgery, and two leg surgeries would cost nearly 100,000 yuan."

"We don't have that much money." Xiao Taimei's voice dropped when she mentioned money.

Ye Lin waved his hand, signaling her to stop talking.

He activated the Grandmaster-level Bone Setting Technique, and the young man's condition became clear to him.

The fracture surface was not ideal; there must have been compression after the break, leading to a comminuted fracture surface.

Additionally, it had been a while, and some bones had already started to heal. If left untreated, it would likely heal crookedly, and he would be a cripple for life.

Moreover, due to compression of blood vessels, the muscles in the lower leg had contracted, making it difficult to treat.

To be honest, a fracture that had been delayed for so long would be very difficult to cure even in a large hospital.

After all, those who treat illnesses there are people, not gods.

"Police Miracle Doctor, can my younger brother's leg be cured?" Xiao Taimei asked nervously.

She had actually had X-rays taken of her younger brother's leg and knew the basic situation. To be honest, although she had begged Ye Lin to come, she didn't hold much hope; it was more about giving herself some closure.

"Yes." Ye Lin answered briefly.

"Oh, it's alright, Police Miracle Doctor. I also know my younger brother's leg is complicated, don't take it to heart." Xiao Taimei replied offhandedly.

Sure enough, there was still no hope.

"Thump!"

Ye Lin gave Xiao Taimei a sharp rap on the head, "What are you thinking? I said yes, it can be cured."

"Ouch!" Xiao Taimei cried out in pain, then looked at Ye Lin in disbelief, "You just said it can be cured?"

"Can it really be cured?" Hope also lit up in her younger brother's eyes.

"If I say yes, it is. But it's a bit troublesome; I need to make some preparations."

"Really?"

"Then no."

"Don't! Can it or can't it?"

"Yes."

A string of dialogues that Ye Lin found boring, yet truly showed Xiao Taimei's disbelief.

"There's hope, there's hope." Xiao Taimei's eyes suddenly welled up, and tears streamed down uncontrollably.

She immediately sat on the bed and hugged her younger brother, sobbing, "There's hope, younger brother, you're saved."

"Sister..."

Watching the two siblings crying in each other's arms, Ye Lin suddenly felt a strong emotion, a very intense one.

Damn system!

This damn system!

If it weren't for him, he could have been a doctor saving lives, not a Police Officer.

But then again, if it weren't for the damn system giving him the Grandmaster-level Bone Setting Technique, he probably wouldn't be able to cure it.

The two siblings cried for a while, and their emotions finally calmed down a bit.

Xiao Taimei got up to kneel before Ye Lin again, but Ye Lin stopped her, "Alright, stop all this. I'll go back and get some medicine, and come treat your younger brother in the next two days."

"Thank you, thank you, Police Miracle Doctor." Xiao Taimei knew nothing else to say except thank you.

However, when escorting Ye Lin out, Xiao Taimei suddenly grabbed Ye Lin, looking as if she wanted to speak but hesitated.

"Little Sister, if you have something to say, say it quickly. I have to go to work soon, and it's getting late."

"Police Miracle Doctor, I have a lead. There's a drug den in the village. I can tell you where it is." Xiao Taimei whispered.
