Chapter 271: Traffic Accident and Injury

~7 min read 1,373 words

In the hot weather at the end of summer, the resource recycling station emitted a pungent smell. It was obviously abnormal for so many people to gather at the entrance.

Sure enough, the sound of police sirens came from far to near, followed by an ambulance.

Needless to ask, something must have happened.

"Fei Ge?" The police officer saw Qi Fei and was surprised, "Why are you here?"

Qi Fei took a look, it turned out to be Xiao Lu. Since that case of Zhu Ming'en, he hadn't seen him for a while.

"Oh, Xiao Lu, there is a medical dispute case, I came to understand the situation. I didn't know you were transferred to this area," Qi Fei said, pointing to the recycling station, "What's the situation?"

"Oh, we received a report that a family of three was found unconscious in this resource recycling station," Xiao Lu said while taking Qi Fei inside, "It looks like heatstroke from the hot weather. Our area is the suburbs, and there have been several cases of heatstroke recently."

The small place was stacked with thick cardboard boxes and flattened plastic bottles. The door was wide open, there was no air conditioning, and only a ceiling fan was still spinning non-stop.

Emergency personnel had arrived at the scene, only to see Sheng Dazhi, Zhang Yingdi, and Sheng Tianbao lying crookedly, having lost consciousness.

The emergency personnel moved the three people onto the stretcher while communicating: "The pupils are scattered, it looks like they can't be saved."

A middle-aged man in a white undershirt stood on the side. Xiao Lu compared the report information and walked up to him: "Mr. He, right? You reported it?"

The middle-aged man nodded: "It's me."

"Let's understand the situation, what was the situation at that time?"

"I am a resident nearby. I bought some cardboard boxes for furniture recently and pulled them here to sell. I shouted several times at the door and no one came out. I saw the shop door open, so I wanted to walk inside the shop to shout, and then I saw these three people all fell down, so I hurried to report it."

During Xiao Lu's questioning, Qi Fei looked at the small shop. The emergency personnel were ready and carried the three people to the ambulance.

Qi Fei stepped forward in two or three steps and suddenly reached out to touch the skin of the three people respectively.

Indeed, as the emergency personnel judged, the body temperature of these three people had already dropped. The so-called emergency treatment was just futile.

"This matter is a bit strange," Qi Fei whispered to Zhong Kui.

Zhong Kui was not afraid of being dirty, and her hand reached into the gaps of the stacked cardboard boxes: "Hmm, there is yin energy."

Qi Fei heard this and didn't say Zhong Kui was superstitious. For the first time, he agreed: "These three people didn't have heatstroke. I just touched their skin, it was very dry, which means they didn't sweat before fainting. As he spoke, he also learned Zhong Kui's appearance and reached his hand into the gap of the cardboard boxes, "Although the room temperature is as hot as the outside, the places covered are still very cool, which means the air conditioning was just turned off not long before this Mr. He came."

Zhong Kui glanced at the ceiling: "The lights are still on. In broad daylight, unless the rolling shutter door was lowered to avoid the heat and the light was not enough. None of the three people sweated. It seems that the shop door was opened after they fainted."

"It may not be saved," Zhong Kui said.

"Ah?" Mr. He was shocked, "Will they die?"

"By the way, I heard that there was an old lady here, and she had an accident not long ago. Do you know about this?" Qi Fei said.

Upon hearing this, Mr. He immediately said, "That certainly wasn't me. I reckon there aren't many people in our residential complex who like them. I don't know what kind of deal they made with the property management, but the scrap collection business in our complex has been monopolized by their family; other scrap collectors can't even get through the gate."

"Hmm? How do you know they refused surgery?" Qi Fei suspected.

"What surgery?" Mr. He was also puzzled.

"You said they killed the old lady themselves, are you talking about them not wanting surgery?"

"What? Still not treating it like that?!" Mr. He was even more angry when he heard this, "That old lady doesn't know what evil she did, giving birth to such a heartless son and grandson.

The day the old lady was knocked down by her grandson, many people heard that miserable scream.

If everyone hadn't urged to send her to the hospital, the old lady would have died on the spot."

"The old lady was injured by Sheng Tianbao?"

"I don't know what Tianbao is, it's the young, dark one who was just sent away," Mr. He described, pointing to Sheng Tianbao without a doubt, and pointed to a blue pickup truck parked outside the door, "That's the car that hit her. I heard that when reversing, he didn't see the old lady squatting behind the car and ran over directly.

The old lady's miserable scream, that grandson didn't hear it. I heard that the daughter-in-law heard the scream first and patted the car door before stopping the car."

"What time was this? I have an impression that there was no such case in the traffic police's report," Xiao Lu was very surprised.

"Hmph, they won't report it to the police. If they report it, Sheng Tianbao is causing serious injury to others by traffic accident. No matter who the injured is, he has violated the Criminal Law," Qi Fei said coldly.

"It seems we only guessed half right. Intentional medical dispute is true, but the reason they refused to give Luo Yongmei active treatment is not for compensation, because if Luo Yongmei could speak, it might have been exposed that Sheng Tianbao hit her."

Qi Fei thought of what Dr. Li said, Luo Yongmei patting Sheng Dazhi every time, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that in this matter, Luo Yongmei hates her son the most, for the sake of his wife and son, and colluded with them."

As he was talking, Mr. He covered his nose and said: "You want to understand the situation, why don't we change a place to talk? It's really smelly here, smellier than usual. Is something rotten? I smell it and I'm about to vomit."

"The old lady let out such a miserable scream, but that grandson didn't hear it. I heard it was the daughter-in-law who heard the screaming first and slapped the car door, only then did the car stop."

"When did this happen? I don't recall this case being in the traffic police report," Xiao Lu said, feeling surprised.

"Hmph, they wouldn't call the police. If they had, Sheng Tianbao would be guilty of causing serious injury by a traffic accident. No matter who the victim was, he would have violated the Criminal Law," Qi Fei said coldly. "No wonder they told Dr. Li at the time that the old lady had fallen; so that's how it was."

"It seems we only guessed half of it. The premeditated medical disturbance is real, but the reason they refused to give Luo Yongmei active treatment wasn't for compensation; it was because if Luo Yongmei were able to speak, she might just expose that it was Sheng Tianbao who hit her."

Qi Fei recalled what Dr. Li had said about Luo Yongmei patting Sheng Dazhi every time, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that in this whole affair, the person Luo Yongmei hates most is her son, who colluded with them for the sake of his own wife and son."

Just as they were talking, Mr. He covered his nose and said, "If you want to find out more, why don't we go somewhere else to talk? It really stinks here, smellier than usual. Is something rotting? I feel like I'm going to throw up just smelling it."
