Chapter 1705: We've Tried Our Best

"Right, that girl..." Mother Manoban suddenly remembered her.

"You take care of Leo. I'll go down and take a look." Father Manoban looked at Leo dearly, then he touched the little guy's warm face before leaving with Jisoo.

Mother Manoban was worried as she saw them both out.
...

The red lightbulb of the operating room was still lit up when Father Manoban and Jisoo went downstairs. Jennie was still in the middle of her surgery.

"How's the girl?" he asked.

Lisa had been sitting on the cold bench since just now. He looked downcast without moving an inch. Despite having heard his father, he did not react at all.

Lang replied coldly, "She was shot in her arm, her torso, both her calves, her scapula sustained a fracture. She's also got three broken ribs, and her head received..."

Father Manoban's face turned paler and paler as Lang said more. He witnessed what had happened to the girl in the video, so of course he knew.

Jisoo did not know what to say. He went up to Lisa and put his hands on his brother's shoulders. "Sister-in-law is blessed. She'll be alright!"

Lisa still did not respond.

Jisoo knew he would not listen to anything now, so he stayed quiet after a few words of comfort.

His brother was not talking, while Lang looked like he was about to explode anytime soon. Jisoo felt really anxious. Then, he suddenly saw a savior. Annie was standing by the corner and he went up to her. "Hey, you're my sister-in-law's friend. You're the really talented doctor named Annie, aren't you?!"

Annie nodded. She was staring blankly into the distance and was not really focused.

"My sister-in-law... How is she? She'll be alright since you're here, won't she?" Jisoo asked.

Annie looked at him in the eye and answered plainly, "I wasn't able to help much."

No matter how good she was, she could not be better than the most advanced modern healthcare system. Moreover, the mysterious man had handled Jennie's wounds perfectly. Even she had to admit that she would not be able to do as well a job. If that person had not been there, Jennie would not have made it to the hospital in time.

The girl did not say anything else afterwards and just stared at the direction of the operating theatre.

Jisoo studied Annie's eyes. He felt an uneasy feeling in the depth of her eyes...

...

Time passed by slowly...

The surgery went on from midnight until sunrise.

At 6 o'clock sharp in the morning, the red light was turned of. The door of the operating theatre opened from the inside.

Two operation assistants came out, followed by the main surgeon.

The surgeon was drenched in sweat. The surgeon's gown clung onto his sticky skin. He took off his mask and had an unpleasant expression on his face.

Everyone's hearts sank when they saw the doctor's expression.

Mother Manoban came over as well. She had been praying with her hands clasped together as she chanted Buddhist scriptures. Nervously, she went up to ask as the doctor came out, "Doctor, how did the operation go? How's the child?"

The doctor phrased carefully as he studied their gazes, "I'm sorry. We've tried our best. Although the operation was successful, the patient received too much damage, and she can't wake up now. The patient is unable to breathe on her own. Her brain stem reaction and brain waves can't be detected..."
