Chapter 280: Car Accident [2]
The atmosphere in the bar was very lively, and after the second prohibition began, many of Ordo's unlicensed small bars were completely exterminated, which made those licensed bar owners wake up laughing in the middle of the night. The huge profits generated every day give these people the illusion that they are the richest people in the city, and if not now, they will be in some time.
Dave walked over to the bar and asked for a glass of hazelnut-flavored wine, which he said was, but he was stunned to get the taste of water from it. He looked at the bartender with a strange look in his eyes and shook the wine glass in his hand, "How much water do you add to this thing?"
The bartender is not embarrassed to be told at all, this kind of thing happens often, everyone has long been accustomed to it, in the words of the bartender, love to drink, not to drink.
Of course, he wouldn't be so direct. He just glanced up at Dave and went on with what he was doing, "Dude, didn't you know that the second prohibition strictly stated that all high-strength alcohol was prohibited?"
"So you mixed the water?", Dave's eyes widened, it was the first time he had heard of the words that he had drunk the decree so justifiably, "why don't you get me something real?"
In fact, even the Contraband Investigation Bureau does not have a good way to distinguish the alcohol content in the shortest time, and they use a very popular way. When the drink cannot be ignited directly, and there is no throat burn, it is not considered a high level of alcohol, which makes the bar have a lot of room to operate.
The bartender retook a three-ounce glass and placed it on the table, then took out a bottle of wine from under the counter and poured it for him, "This glass of wine is four dollars, and this time it's not water." ”
Dave took out the money and slapped it on the bar, took a sip from his glass, this time he was very satisfied, at least he couldn't taste the water.
In fact, this kind of 20 to 30 degrees of wine is the most likely to make people drunk, because there is nothing unusual when drinking, and by the time you realize it, you have already drunk too much.
It was already past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night when he came out of the bar, and Dave shook his head with his feet, lowered his head slightly, and rolled his eyes up to look ahead, as if it was difficult for him to move his eyes, but it was easier to turn his head.
Ordo also has a taxi in the evening, especially in front of the bar. With several bars opening all night, there are always some drunk people who come home as a nuisance. Bars don't let customers get drunk in the bar, and even if the other person's identity may not be ordinary, they will throw people out. This brings us to another issue, all entertainment establishments have a set limit on the number of people, and only one person inside can come out and a new guest can enter.
Although these bars have expanded their business base and have taken corresponding fire prevention measures, they still can't solve the fact that there are too many customers. Every night at night, there is a long queue at the door of the bar, and these are all moving bills!
So those guests who are thrown out become the "treasures" of taxi drivers, these people don't care and don't care how much it costs to take a taxi, many drivers like to line up at the door of the bar at night, as long as they pull a customer is earned.
Got into the car, the drunken Dave reported the name of the place, and the taxi started slowly, neither the driver nor Dave in the car noticed that when they passed by the nearest street corner, a truck with its headlights turned off suddenly started and followed them closely.
"Guest, there is a street light in front of you that is broken, can you walk from the side road?", the taxi driver asked, and Dave subconsciously agreed.
He can't understand the meaning of a sentence now, it's good to be able to understand it. The taxi driver smiled triumphantly, and this is why they dared to take a detour, because it was the passengers themselves who agreed. He turned the steering wheel and drove towards the outskirts of the city, and when he was about to come back, he could make a fortune.
Just as the taxi driver was circling around an area as usual, suddenly two bright headlights tore through the darkness and left him in a brief state of blindness. When the car accident happened, the lights out windows around them soon lit up, and some people poked their heads out of their homes with sticks in their hands, and they saw a young man who was so panicked that he didn't know what to do was going straight around the scene of the car accident.
"Who's going to save them, God, I'm in trouble!", the young driver was sweating profusely, and soon the people living around him worked together to drag the taxi driver and Dave in the back seat out of the deformed car.
The taxi driver was dead and couldn't die anymore, and although Dave still had a breath, his constant vomiting of blood also indicated that he would not live long. Soon the ambulance and police car arrived at the scene, and the doctor shook his head after examining the two injured people, and there was no need to resuscitate them.
The young driver was taken away by the police on the spot, and both cars were also towed back to a place where the accident vehicle was parked in a special place.
Such a traffic accident did not attract much attention, and the city is so big, there must always be some accidents, isn't it? Either there was a car accident here, or there was a robbery there, and these can only be regarded as small talk in people's daily life, and they do not make people study and think.
It wasn't until five days later that Mr. Bain relayed the news to Alyssa, who froze on the spot. She immediately rushed upstairs into her room, picked up the phone and dialed Durin's number.
"Hello, this is Shorecliff Durin Manor. "It was a woman who answered the phone, her voice was nice and soft, and she was also very young.
At this time, Alyssa couldn't care about so much, and she asked directly, "Is Durin here?"
There was silence for about five or six seconds on the other side before he spoke, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Doolin went to the construction site early in the morning and will come back in the evening, if you have anything you can tell me on your behalf, you can also call again in the evening." ”
Alyssa hung up the phone, she was angry, she was sad, she was terrified!
Sure enough, the bastard's words couldn't be trusted, but he had promised himself that he wouldn't do anything to Dave, and he actually lied. In fact, Alyssa already had a premonition when she came back, that guy from Durin must have done something, but she didn't expect it to come so quickly!
There was a knock on the door, and Alyssa came to her senses, and she opened it, leaving Mr. Bane standing outside.
"Is it convenient to come in?", Mr. Bane asked, and Alyssa nodded before he entered his daughter's room. Sitting on a chair and looking at the decoration of the room, this was the first time Alyssa had entered this room since she went home to live, and was a little curious, "You shouldn't go upstairs in such a panic as you did just now, if you fall down the stairs...... Since you have decided to give birth to this child, then you should protect him as much as possible and not bring any danger to him. ”
Alyssa was silent, which made Mr. Bane think that Dave's death had plunged Alyssa into grief, he stood up and walked to Alyssa's side and gently hugged her and kissed her forehead, "There are always things in this world that we can't do anything about, everyone needs to face this moment, and no one is an exception. I know you may be sad in your heart, and I'm just so sad, but we have to get on with our lives, don't we?"
He took two steps, let go of Alyssa, and looked her in the eye, "Believe my child, Dave has gone to Heaven, and he won't want you to be sad and sad in Heaven, you are not suitable for violent emotional fluctuations now, it is not good for children." He sighed, "Look, I have a stupid mouth that can't say anything comforting, but I hope you don't grieve too much." ”
Alyssa squeezed out a smile, not because of sadness, but because of anger! That shameless and despicable bastard had lied to her, and this was the second time! What made her even more angry was that she had naively believed it, and she was so stupid!
"I'm fine, father, really, you look at my eyes, there's no red and no crying. Alyssa snapped her eyelids to prove that she wasn't sad, but this behavior made Mr. Bane think she was holding back the pain.
"Don't worry, this case is a traffic case, and I will personally try it, and I will definitely make that bastard pay the price!", Mr. Bane suddenly burst out with an aura that belonged to the director of the transportation bureau.
Alyssa suddenly realized something, and her face showed some confusion, "Wait, you mean you caught the driver?"
Mr. Bane nodded as a matter of course, "yes, he didn't run, in fact, he can't blame that guy entirely, who would have thought that there would be a taxi on the outskirts of the city in the middle of the night?"
"Isn't this a murder?", Alyssa felt that her brain was a little messy, and at this time she herself was confused, what did Du Lin arrange for someone to do, and was it really just a traffic accident in Yichang?
Mr. Bain was a little puzzled and repeated the whole thing, that place on the outskirts of the city was very dark without street lights, and many taxi drivers liked to go around in circles and rip off customers, and it was not a matter of once or twice. It was precisely because of the darkness and the fact that it was the middle of the night, and the taxi driver and the truck driver were very tired, so both parties did not realize that there would be cars passing at this time, so they collided hard.
It was just a simple traffic accident and the truck driver did not leave the scene and is now in police custody. After the Transportation Bureau gives a ruling opinion, the court will finally refer to the Transportation Bureau's opinion for sentencing.
Mr. Bane was going to give the kid a hard time and make him remember it a little longer.
