Chapter 10: Car Accidents and Crime
On August 19, 2007, at 12:26 p.m., at an intersection in Tiangang City, a large truck was driven drunk by its driver, causing the truck to roll over when it was making a sharp turn, flattening a car on another road, and pushing it more than 10 meters away.
After emergency rescue by the hospital, the truck driver was fine, but two of the four people in the car died after rescue failed......
Lying on the hospital bed with a blank expression, Zhou Yuqian looked at the ceiling above his head and was speechless for a long time. It was his third day in the hospital, and he had been in this state since the last car accident, and although the doctor didn't say anything to him, he knew the situation was not optimistic when he saw the sympathetic glances of the nurses on the side.
These days, he didn't see Zhou Yukun's hospital bed, and he was the only one in the entire ward. Of course, not including these nurse sisters who took care of him.
"Children, eat something, it's not good for your health to skip meals like this!" A girl in a white nurse's uniform said to Zhou Yuqian with concern, her eyes filled with pity and sympathy.
Zhou Yuqian didn't speak, didn't make any movements, and didn't even have the slightest fluctuation in his eyes, if it weren't for all the examinations that showed that his body was very healthy, otherwise these nurses would think he was in a vegetative state!
Seeing that he was still in this state, the nurse's sister sighed helplessly, and whispered to herself: "Alas, poor child, it seems that he can only inject nutrient solution today." ”
At this moment, the door of the ward was gently opened, and a bed was pushed in by several nurses. They were followed by two policemen and a doctor who was not young, but one of the older policemen asked, "Doctor Huang, how is this child's condition, is he out of danger?" ”
Hearing this, Dr. Huang shook his head with a solemn expression: "His condition is a little strange, obviously his body is in good condition in all aspects, but it is very strange that he has been unconscious, after these few days of observation, I found that he should be mentally self-isolated, this problem about the brain has always been a difficult point in medicine, and the only thing I can do now is to wait for him to wake up by himself." ”
The policeman who asked nodded understandingly, and then pointed to Zhou Yuqian, who was in a daze, and asked, "Doctor, what about this child, I think his state is very bad." ”
"Alas, he's just a child!" Dr. Huang left the room with these words, and then turned and left the room. Yes, he's just a kid, and after this kind of thing, there will definitely be some peculiar behavior.
The policeman sighed and left the ward with his companions.
The light in Zhou Yuqian's eyes gradually condensed, and he tilted his head slightly, looking at the person on the hospital bed next to him, the face that was six points similar to himself, wasn't it his brother? He vaguely remembered that at the moment of the car accident, his brother first pressed himself to the bottom of the car, and then squatted down.
Perhaps, it was that short pause that caused my brother to be more seriously injured, but it seems to be okay, it should not be life-threatening!
Tears slowly left from his cheeks, Zhou Yuqian's face finally showed a trace of expression, turned his head to look at the nurse who was still a little stunned beside him, laughed stiffly, and made a hoarse voice: "Can you push my bed over?" I want to be with my brother! ”
After being slightly stunned, the child's sudden opening made her a little overwhelmed, but she quickly reacted and quickly put his bed and Zhou Yukun's bed together. "Okay, I've agreed to your request, then you have to promise me too, you have to eat well in the future."
Zhou Yuqian smiled faintly and nodded at her.
……
Outside Zhou Yuqian's ward, the two policemen had just come out of it, and they met a middle-aged man with a resolute face, with lingering self-blame in his eyes, and said to the policeman who asked him before: "Lao Chen, how are the two children?" ”
Lao Chen glanced at this old comrade-in-arms with an extremely unnatural expression, and said in a deep voice: "The lives of the two children have been saved, but there is another child who has never woken up. Old Yuan, what happened to you this time...... Alas, these two children are still suffering after all! ”
When Lao Yuan heard this, his expression couldn't help but become indignant: "I know how serious the mistake I made this time is, but why did you help me pick out the charges, I should have been directly imprisoned." Because I didn't drink at all, you reported to me that I caused the accident because of drunk driving. ”
"Do you think it's right for me to just put you in jail and shoot you later?"
Lao Yuan nodded lightly, he really thought so, the sense of responsibility in his personality made him completely unable to do this kind of thing to evade the law, since he made a mistake, although it was only manslaughter, but how should he be imprisoned, like now, relying on relationships to reduce the crime to the lightest, so that he can't accept it at all.
Lao Chen sneered and reprimanded angrily: "Stupid, Lao Yuan, you are still the same as before, and you don't know how to be flexible at all." Do you think that as long as you confess your sins and subdue the law, you can completely solve your mistakes? No, you're just trying to alleviate the guilt in your heart through legal sanctions. But have you ever thought about what happens after you confess your sins? Your wife, your two daughters, how are they going to live in the future? And these two children who have just lost their parents, can these two get their parents back through the sanctions imposed on you? What will they do with their lives after that? You don't even think about it, you're just running away! ”
Such a large paragraph of words made Lao Yuan speechless for a long time, yes, Lao Chen said these words that he really didn't think about, he just lost his mind because of a sudden mistake, and now he slowly calmed down. "That'...... Is there any way you can get me out now? ”
Seeing that his old friend finally woke up a little, Lao Chen showed a smile and patted her on the shoulder: "I know that you are a meticulous person about things, if I let you escape like this, it will definitely drive you crazy." So, I came up with a compromise solution, which is also an important reason for me to let you out. ”
Lao Yuan's spirit was shocked, and he asked excitedly: "What is the method, say it quickly!" ”
"Okay, don't worry. I think since you made these two children lose their parents, then you just need to give them back one parent! ”
"Huh? How is this possible, his parents are ......" Speaking of this, Lao Yuan was suddenly stunned, combined with the meaning of Lao Chen's words before, he quickly understood: "You, what do you mean to ......"
Lao Chen nodded: "Yes, that's what it means, do you really think that I just helped you for you, a comrade-in-arms?" I just pity these two children, and the purpose of bailing you out is to make you pay for your sins, and I want you to be their father and take care of them as if they were my own children. ”
Hearing this, Lao Yuan's resolute face gradually left two lines of tears, a dignified man, a man who had never cried in his life, cried. He knew that although his comrade-in-arms was stubborn, in fact, he just wanted to do his best to help himself, so that he had no reason to refuse.
But I have to say that Lao Chen's idea moved him. Perhaps, this is the true best of both worlds!
