Chapter 108: The Driver Who Caused the Accident
When I learned that the driver who hit my sister was escorted back to Xihe City, I said a word in my heart and hurried out to the traffic police brigade.
On the way to the Didi car, I sent a message to Hou Shaohui, asking Officer Hou to accompany me to the traffic police brigade, after all, it is a system, and it will definitely be more convenient to have Hou Shaohui by his side.
When I arrived at the traffic police brigade, Hou Shaohui, who was in civilian clothes, had been waiting here for a while, and he had already heard me talk about my sister's car accident, so Hou Shaohui understood my mood of wanting to see the driver who caused the accident urgently.
Officer Hou reminded me that he would interrogate the driver of the accident for me later, and told me to stay calm when I met the driver and not rush over to fight the driver, which would make it difficult for the police.
On the way here, I have adjusted my mentality.
My sister was just hospitalized more than a month ago, and I couldn't make up enough for medical expenses, so I was so desperate at that time, I really thought about catching the driver who caused the accident, and I had to beat the driver to death in order to relieve my anger.
But now my sister is in the recovery period under Zhang Qian's treatment, and I have gone through the most difficult years at the beginning, how could I impulsively tear up with the driver in the traffic police brigade.
I asked Officer Hou to rest assured, I just wanted to see what the driver who caused the accident looked like, and I wanted to ask that guy in person, how could he bear to run away after hitting someone, and his conscience was at ease?
Seeing that I was in a stable mood, Hou Shaohui tapped me twice on the shoulder, and then led me into an office of the traffic police brigade.
In the office, it was the traffic police officer who was responsible for handling my sister's car accident case, and he was familiar with Hou Shaohui, and after a few chats, the traffic police took me and Hou Shaohui to an interrogation room next door.
Hou Shaohui asked me to wait, the traffic police were still suddenly interrogating the driver who caused the accident, taking advantage of this waiting time, I sent a message to Zhang Zihao, saying that I was already in the traffic police brigade, and the captain of the criminal police brigade was accompanying me.
Zhang Zihao came back and said that he was also on the way to the traffic police brigade, but knowing that I was accompanied by the captain of the criminal brigade, he didn't come to join in the fun, so I didn't want to be excited when I saw the driver who caused the accident.
As soon as the message with Zhang Zihao was sent, two traffic police escorted a man with his head down into the interrogation room.
Hou Shaohui and I were sitting in the interrogation seat, and as soon as I saw this man, I immediately stood up from my chair, and my emotions were involuntarily a little excited at that moment.
Hou Shaohui hurriedly pulled me down and shook my head, signaling that I couldn't do this.
I took a deep breath, calmed my restlessness, and looked at the driver who was sitting in the interrogation chair.
"Raise your head!"
Hou Shaohui issued a command.
The man with his head bowed raised his head uneasily.
My eyes slid straight over his face, and he was a very ordinary-looking man, about forty years old, with an outdated mid-split head, and an uneasy dodgy look in his eyes, and at first glance he belonged to the kind of man who was honest.
When he saw that I was looking at him, the man looked a little frightened.
Hou Shaohui looked at the interrogation materials of the traffic police, and asked coldly: "Name, age, gender, and address!" ”
This is a habitual inquiry during interrogation, and I only heard the driver who caused the accident answer: "Guo Chenglin, 41 years old, male, lives in Xihe City......"
When Guo Chenglin finished answering as usual, Hou Shaohui patted the interrogation materials and said:
"I am Hou Shaohui of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Brigade, and after the interrogation of you by the traffic police department, I have objections to your account of the hit-and-run case after the brake failure and knocking down Ye Ting. Our criminal investigation has reason to suspect that you were bribed and deliberately drove into Ye Ting. ”
As Hou Shaohui spoke, his eyes motioned for me to remain silent, and his words made Guo Chenglin fall into extreme unease.
Guo Chenglin hurriedly defended that he didn't mean it, and that it was indeed the car that suddenly braked and failed that day that it hit Ye Ting.
Seeing Hou Shaohui's expression of disbelief, Guo Chenglin cried in fright, swearing that he was really not bought, and that it was purely a motor vehicle accident.
Hou Shaohui asked him coldly, since it was a motor vehicle accident, why did he run away after hitting someone, there was definitely no hidden reason, let Guo Chenglin explain honestly.
Guo Chenglin cried a handful of snot and tears, saying that he was frightened after hitting someone, thinking that the vehicle that caused the accident was a black car that he bought, and he was not insured, he would definitely lose a lot of money.
He said that he was a bachelor and his family was poor, so Guo Chenglin thought of driving away with luck.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but scold Guo Chenglin for his lack of morality, clenching my fists and really wanting to beat this guy, he drove away at the time, but I almost lost my sister who depended on me because of this.
Hou Shaohui understood my anger, he didn't stop me from swearing, he wrote some words on the paper to show me.
It means that what he just asked Guo Chenglin was inconsistent with the way the traffic police asked, but Guo Chenglin's explanation was the same.
Hou Shaohui judged that my sister Ye Ting's car accident was a traffic accident in which Guo Chenglin was driving a black car, and there was no one behind it.
After I finished reading it, I nodded approvingly, and scolded Guo Chenglin a few more words with red eyes.
From beginning to end, I held back my anger and didn't do anything to Guo Chenglin.
Subsequently, Hou Shaohui did not ask Guo Chenglin again, and replaced it with a traffic policeman to talk to Guo Chenglin.
The traffic police analyzed the serious consequences of a hit-and-run accident in a black car, and if Guo Chenglin is willing to compensate the injured, then Guo Chenglin's sentence will be lenient.
Guo Chenglin listened to tears in his eyes, and kept apologizing to me for his repentance, he said that he was willing to compensate, but he is so poor that he can't open the pot now, and he has no money to compensate.
He begged me to give him a two-year buffer, and he could write me an IOU for the police to vouch for, and if he could not compensate for the relevant expenses within two years, he was willing to give me the only house to pay off the debt.
In this regard, Hou Shaohui wrote me another note, telling me that it was impossible for the police to guarantee anyone in this matter.
He made it clear to me that if I sued the court in the name of the victim and applied for compensation from the driver who caused the accident, the court would support it.
In other words, whether Guo Chenglin wants it or not, because he is the crime of traffic hit-and-run, he is absolutely at fault, as long as I do not reconcile and appeal, the house where Guo Chenglin lives will have to be mortgaged and compensated.
However, Hou Shaohui also wrote later that if I accept Guo Chenglin's proposal and the two sides reach a compensation settlement, Guo Chenglin will indeed have room for mitigation in sentencing.
This also means that my thoughts will determine the severity of Guo Chenglin's sentence!
"Please, young man, I didn't mean to hit your sister."
Guo Chenglin already knew the current situation, and when he saw that I was hesitating, he immediately cried and pleaded with me:
"If you don't want to reconcile, I will be sentenced to several years, although I don't have a wife and children, but I have an eighty-year-old mother to take care of, if I go to prison for many years, how can my sick old mother live, it is estimated that she will have no one to send her to the end of her life, please, okay, I really know that I am wrong, woo woo ......"
Guo Chenglin cried unhumanly, and at the moment when the traffic police pulled him up from the interrogation chair, he struggled to get rid of the traffic police and knelt down with a bang.
