Chapter 952 Volume 9 – Chapter 164: The Restless Night (Part 1)
The noise of a harsh brake came.
Of course, the drivers who were forced to stop started complaining and cursing.
But the first driver didn’t care about being scolded. Instead, he hurried to the front of his car and looked at the man who fell in front of his car.
There was a bus stop next to the incident. Hence, many onlookers were around. When a person fell in front of the car, the driver looked flustered. Soon, the crowd realized something.
He doesn’t look like a scammer. The driver gritted his teeth and quickly took out his phone. At this time, he could only choose to call the police and call an ambulance for help.
The ambulance arrived faster than the traffic police. The suspected driver quickly explained the situation to the medical staff. After the medical staff in the ambulance confirmed that the man was in a coma, the driver became more anxious.
“Police officer, I didn’t hurt this person. Please believe me!” The driver was pale, and now he came to the hospital with the group.
“You didn’t hit the victim, but are you not speeding too?” The traffic police stared at the driver, “This is the hospital. Please be quiet! Let’s wait for the doctors to get the result!”
The doctor frowned, nodded, and said, “For the person inside, his ear was cut off cruelly for some unknown reason. But after the cut, the wound was not treated properly. Now he is infected with tetanus. If he weren’t delivered in time, I am afraid that no one could save him.”
“His ear is cut off…” The traffic police furrowed his brows after listening. He was guessing under what circumstances would one of the ears be cut off.
Was it revenge, or was it because of other things? However, a cruel method like cutting off the ear was something only some lunatics would do. The traffic police knew that this matter was beyond the scope of his duties and simply reported it to the appropriate departments directly.
The driver thought for a while and knew some of the hospital’s rules and accommodating aspects. At this time, the driver was afraid that the victim would be delayed in treatment. If something happened one day later, the victim’s family would pursue him, which would be endless trouble.
The driver gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s do this? I’m going to help him go through the hospitalization procedure. Traffic police officer, since you witnessed the event, why don’t you also help?”
“Okay… fine.” The traffic policeman thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
They found a wallet from the patient’s belongings, which had the person’s ID: Liu Zixing.
When everything was done, the driver sat down, exhausted. He called his relatives, “Oh… I don’t want it to happen too! I don’t know if it was the guy being unlucky or me. Don’t run around if you’re already hurt! It’s tetanus, and he almost died. He even put me in a tight spot. I don’t want to talk about it. The traffic police officer is here. Traffic police officer, how is it? Have you contacted his family?”
“En, maybe you should go back first. I think it should be fine. I have written an oral confession. You keep your phone online these days and make sure that we can find you.” The traffic police thought for a while and felt that it wasn’t entirely the driver’s fault. There was no point in keeping him here.
The driver thought for a while and felt that it was still not safe. So, he gritted his teeth and said, “I have a suggestion. I am here waiting for him to wake up! Just in case his family will hold me accountable in the future. This is hard to say for certain! At least, I want to make it clear in person when the victim wakes up. It is his problem, not because I bumped into him, nor did I scare him into any complications!”
“Alright.” The traffic police agreed.
The traffic police officer reported the matter to the police station. He intended to transfer it to the police station. But all the police in the city were mobilized, being put to work overtime temporarily to catch a dangerous assailant.
The driver nodded, only to admit that he was unlucky.
After the traffic police left, the driver bought something to eat and then stayed in front of Liu Zixing’s bed. He wanted to be alerted as soon as the victim woke up.
The driver looked at Liu Zixing in a coma, then glanced at the bandaged area on the ear, frowning. Liu Zixing’s skin was smooth, and he didn’t look like a labor worker. How could he get into such a situation?
Thinking about it, the driver sat on the folding chair, slowly getting sleepy, and shut his eyes.
