Amidst all the discussion of Baifenzhai's investigative report and the analysis of the chat session records about conspiracy, the funds were supposed to be transferred to a third-party for safe-keeping. And then something unexpected happened -- Yi Liangwei passed away on October 22.

At 7:17pm on the evening of October 20, Handouxiansheng who is the forum master of the Transplant City received an SMS from Yi Liangwei: "I entered the operation room at 2pm this afternoon to take care of my aneurysm. By 6pm, they told me that they were not able to stop the aneurysm. However, they have inserted the steel ring inside already. They are now readying to bring me back into the operating room in order to extract the steel ring. I am about to go in." At around 7pm, Yi Liangwei called all her relatives in Luzhou and then she went into the operating room in tears.

The operation went on for more than 11 hours and finished after 6am the next morning. In the intensive care unit, Yi Liangwei's condition turned for the worse on the afternoon of October 21. At 7pm, another emergency surgical operation was done. When she exited the operating room at 9pm, she was in a coma.

During that time, Chen Yi used her mobile phone to communicate with the friends at Transplant City, Bafenzhai, Huaideguang and other people about the latest developments. On the evening of October 21, Huaideguang and another Chongqing netizen Langxiang came by the hospital. Chen Yi and her aunt Yi Liangqiong voluntarily showed them the medical bills and said that the hospital is willing to issue a note to prove there was the need for emergency medical expenditures. Chen Yi asked them whether they would approved the use of the donated money for this purpose.

The two felt that they were not authorized to make that decision. They called Bafenzhai, who recommended that they followed the order of spending the money from the Luzhou Prosecutorial Office first, the Southwestern University next and the Internet donations last. Huaideguang told Chen Yi that the decision was really in her hands. Huaideguang and other netizens had gone to the Chongqing City Notary's Office to discuss the monitoring of the donated funds and had been advised that the money is Chen Yi's private property which she can use as she sees fit.
