Chinese Doctor's Tragedy in the Hospital of Hell

This doctor risked everything to expose a hospital from hell. Then he mysteriously fell 15 stories near the hospital to his end. And now this case, buried for more than a year, suddenly became viral on Chinese social media, ranking first on Weibo at one point and was among five or six other searches in the top ranking chart. In a country where nothing trends unless it's being allowed to, you have to ask the question, why now? Welcome to the latest mystery in China. His name is Dr. Luo Shuaiyu. Now, for clarity's sake, we're just going to call him Sean because it's easier to understand. He was a young resident doctor who joined the Xiangya Second Hospital in Changsha City in 2021. And during his time as a resident doctor, he seems to have noticed something very strange that goes on at this hospital. And unfortunately, on May 8th, 2024, he met his end. His body was found 15 floors down near his dorm. Police ruled it Sudoku. Nothing of his end made any sense, which we'll go into details later. But first, let's talk about what actually goes on in this hospital. It turns out Sean's father had recovered from his computer's hard drive, which was wiped clean, by the way, a little weird, more on that later, hours of secret recordings of videos and audios of conversations that took place between Sean and other people at the hospital, doctors, directors, etc. Documenting what he thought was happening, horrifying schemes, profit-driven surgeries, live organ harvesting, fake diagnosis. What his father was able to recover, over 10,000 pages after it was transcribed, weighing 6.5 kilograms, or about 14 pounds of information. At the center of this scheme is a Dr. Liu, who, for clarity's sake again, we'll just call him ill. So, again, it's for clarity's sakes. But if you thought Squid Game, the scenes about organs smuggling, what they do to the dead participants, was scary, well, this story is going to make that look like Disney. Because Liu had made his surgery room into a butcher shop. What he had done, for example, remove healthy organs from patients who, he says, are determined to require that surgery. Well, it's for billing scams. Or things like telling people that they had cancer, needed cancer-like chemo treatments, even though they were perfectly healthy. Or cases where they removed intestines from patients who didn't need the removal. Or some cases, they stuffed stones inside their organs and cut them away, and then telling the patients, look, your organ had stones in it. 80% of the patients he operated on actually did not require the surgery. And when it comes to the cancer diagnosis, 92% of them didn't have cancer. So this wasn't healing. This was literally dismantling people for money. Of course, it didn't just stop with them. Here's a recording. Take a listen. So if it was a poor patient who couldn't pay, they'll just take their entire organ away and sell it for covering the cost. And that's what exactly happened in this audio recording. And now, this wasn't Liu. This was another hospital surgeon. So as you can see, this was happening all across the entire hospital. And in the recording, the patient couldn't afford the care. So they were discussing how to remove that organ. Before we go any further with this crazy story, let me get the other David to tell you about our upcoming trip to Singapore. Dear China Insider viewers, this August, I'm heading to Forest City in Malaysia, a hunting symbol of China's real estate crisis.

Even worse, Shawn discovered that they were actually collecting data for young children, and these are healthy individuals, to what we can conclude is a live donor base for organs. And of course, not of the dead, living donors. Here's another audio recording. This was one of the tasks he was given. He was tasked with collecting a set of 12 patients, children aged three to nine. Take a listen. Mm-hmm. To identify suitable organ donors for the next three years. And that's a direct quote we heard in the audio recording. And what essentially he had to do was create a set of data for a number of patients. They're not talking about autopsy cases. They're talking about live donors. And another interesting thing I had to ask some people who are in the medical fields, the director or the supervisor keeps mentioning drawing blood from the inferior vena cava, which is an unusual place to draw blood, right? But after searching online and asking around, it seems that in specialized cases where you do need to test for certain things like antibody or organ functionalities or an immediate need for organ transplant, it is a place that you can quickly draw blood from to determine some of the specific metrics for those particular cases. Obviously, this whole vena cava situation is highly invasive. So you wouldn't do this normally on regular, you know, a planned blood sample collections. And in audio, we also hear that the director or the, I keep saying the director, the supervisor keeps saying that you have to be careful because these young children have weak organs or that their organs are very brittle so that you have to be careful. Basically, it's an unnecessary blood test or blood sampling unless you're preparing this for organ transplant qualifications. So they don't say bodies. They keep saying donors over and over again. So that's, again, very suspicious. And doctors don't really talk like that unless that person is still alive. So essentially, what we've seen Sean has been doing is that he's been documenting these cases, trying to build a very convincing report so that he can submit it to the relevant authorities. But unfortunately, he didn't get to do that. Before he could blow the whistle, he reached his end. What's interesting here is some of the details before his end. For example, the day before he died, he messaged two distant colleagues. He says, if I don't show up tomorrow, give the files in my computer to the inspection committee. And then seven minutes before his end, suspicious texts are sent from his phone, but this time in third person. Yeah, totally normal for you to randomly refer yourself in third person just minutes before you somehow committed sudoku. Also, regarding his actual jump, the body landed about seven meters away from the building wall. And the spot where he supposedly sudoku'd had a 1.5 meter guardrail. So the landing site was obviously, you know, it was in the same building, but there's an 80 centimeter opening. So the person, Sean, had to navigate through a bunch of these situations of like, difficult pathways, guardrails, and small openings to go from there. You couldn't have done this and then launch yourself seven meters away. Physics doesn't work like that. And then they also found inside his dorm afterwards that the bed was messy. There were signs of struggles. Doors were flung open. They also found wads of cash with him. He had 25,000 yuan in cash, which is unusual for today's China, because everything is digital. Even large sums of payments are digital. So having a lot of cash on you means you're either participating in something illegal, or you're about to do something illegal. While that's only about 3,500 USD, it's still a lot of money when it's in yuan. And also, between 2021 to 2023, the hospital had paid Sean over 400,000 yuan in what they call is the labor remuneration, which essentially means he was paid to do some certain type of work. But he's just an intern. And in most cases, hospitals don't give you extra money for doing extra work because they want to work interns to the ground. And so this is also very strange. And then also, his laptop was wiped, completely formatted. And his dad had to spend efforts trying to get a technician to recover the lost files, which actually they, of course, did. And so, again, things like those secret files, recordings, they were all gone after he passed away. Now, the conclusion of this, which I find is even more weird, is that Il had been sentenced to 13 years in prison for some of the stuff like medical malpractice. But it wasn't because of Sean, but it was because of anonymous reportings by internet users saying that he was doing a lot of the stuff that we talked about. We backtracked about a year ago. This is where things get interesting. The case was determined to be this very mysterious corruption involved. But at the end of the day, it's a Sudoku case, right? But a year later, this case started to gain more traction. In a country where we know that live organ harvesting, forced organ harvesting, is something that they will not accept to be true because, well, they would deny the fact that it's happening on a mass scale, and they have been denying it. The fact that they would not allow this type of situation to be admitted by their officials, foreign ministry, whatnot, is trending on Chinese social media, reaching top, you know, number one place, number three, number five, etc. And then people actually opening, considering the fact that, you know, these kids might have been used for organ donation. Why are they letting this go viral? That's my question. For decades, they've denied the allegations that the CCP is harvesting organs from Falun Gong practitioners because since the persecution started against them in 1999, this was one of the ways to systematically eliminate their body, their spirits, and their soul because, you know, the very act of the forced organ harvesting is the capital punishment for them. And then so after Xi Jinping came into power, this really operation was expanded to Uyghurs, to regular citizens, to young kids, to teenagers. So it's been quite widely known in China that there's a huge number of missing young adults, young kids just every single year. A lot of this is because of the organ situation. So everybody has been keeping silent on this case, except till now we suddenly get this revival of that. My wish is that somebody in the CCP still has the conscience to try to let this type of thing get out so that people can know about it. But it might just be my wish. And I hope that, you know, this continues to be exposed and that we hear more about this, which actually validates, you know, people what they've been saying over the years, how this is happening in China. And finally, we're seeing some real examples of this. So thanks so much for watching this episode. Hope you enjoyed it.
