Chapter 1695 Can It Be Restored?
Qin Yuan saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. He gently patted Duan Jinglin's shoulder, signaling him to calm down. "Doctor, how much more will it cost?" Qin Yuan's voice was gentle and strong, as if he was trying to take some of the pressure off Duan Jinglin.
The doctor sighed and reported a number that made Duan Jinglin's heart tremble. At that moment, he seemed to hear the sound of his own heart breaking. There is not much savings left at home. Where can he get so much money?
Qin Yuan saw Duan Jinglin's predicament, took a deep breath and decided to stand up. "Doctor, I'll pay the fees in advance. Jinglin, don't worry, we'll cure uncle first, and we'll talk about the rest later." Qin Yuan's words were like a ray of sunshine in winter, warming Duan Jinglin's cold heart.
Duan Jinglin was stunned. He looked up at Qin Yuan with tears in his eyes. "Brother Yuan, how can this... how can this be done? You have helped me so much, I can't let you..." His voice was choked, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Qin Yuan shook his head and interrupted Duan Jinglin's words. "Jing Lin, we are brothers and comrades-in-arms. Your business is my business. Now my uncle needs treatment, and we can't delay his condition because of money." Qin Yuan's tone was firm and powerful, as if telling Duan Jinglin , this decision cannot be rejected.
Duan Jinglin looked at Qin Yuan with a warm feeling in his heart. He knew that Qin Yuan was a man of his word, and since he said so, he would definitely do it. He held Qin Yuan's hand tightly and said gratefully: "Brother Yuan, thank you. I, Duan Jinglin, will never forget this kindness."
Qin Yuan smiled and patted Duan Jinglin on the shoulder. "Okay, forget about mother-in-law and mother-in-law. What we have to do now is to take good care of uncle and let him recover as soon as possible." His tone was relaxed but firm, as if he was injecting invisible power into Duan Jinglin.
In the following days, Qin Yuan and Duan Jinglin took turns staying at the hospital to take care of Duan's father. They cleaned Duan's father, fed him, chatted with him, and tried their best to make him feel warm and cared for. Under their careful care, Duan's father gradually regained consciousness. Although his body was still very weak, his mental state improved significantly.
However, as the treatment progresses, the cost disappears like water. Although Qin Yuan paid most of the expenses in advance, Duan Jinglin still felt a lot of pressure. He began to raise money everywhere and even considered selling his family's house to pay for medical expenses. Qin Yuan saw this and was anxious in his heart, so he decided to stand up again.
"Jinglin, please stop fussing. The house is your foundation and cannot be sold." Qin Yuan's voice was firm and powerful, as if telling Duan Jinglin that this decision was wrong.
Duan Jinglin was stunned. He looked up at Qin Yuan, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes. "Brother Yuan, but...but I really can't help it. I can't let you bear so much alone." His voice was trembling, and tears blurred his vision again.
Qin Yuan shook his head, walked to Duan Jinglin, and held his hand tightly. "Jing Lin, listen to me. We are brothers and comrades-in-arms. Your difficulties are my difficulties. I can't watch you struggle alone while I stand by and watch. This money is nothing to me. ", you don't have to worry about me." Qin Yuan's words were as warm as the spring breeze, blowing away the haze in Duan Jinglin's heart.
Duan Jinglin looked at Qin Yuan, feeling indescribably moved in his heart. He knew that Qin Yuan was a true friend and a brother worthy of his lifelong trust. He hugged Qin Yuan tightly, tears flowing between the two of them. "Brother Yuan, thank you. I feel really happy to have you here." His voice was trembling, but full of sincere emotions.
The night in Haidong City was deep and silent. Only the occasional sound of rapid footsteps and the ticking of instruments from the hospital broke the tranquility. Qin Yuan and Duan Jinglin stood guard outside the ICU ward, their faces full of exhaustion and anxiety. Although Duan's father was out of danger, the high medical expenses were like a mountain, weighing them down.
"Brother Yuan, why are the parties responsible for the accident so cruel? My dad was injured like this, and they didn't even show their faces, let alone pay for the medical expenses." Duan Jinglin's voice was full of anger and confusion. , he clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to vent all the dissatisfaction in his heart.
Qin Yuan frowned, and he didn't know how to answer this question. In his opinion, the perpetrator should at least take due responsibility, instead of hiding like this and letting the victim's family bear all the pain. He patted Duan Jinglin on the shoulder and tried to comfort him: "Jinglin, don't worry, maybe they have some special situation. Let's wait and see, maybe there will be news tomorrow."
However, Qin Yuan's words did not improve Duan Jinglin's mood. His eyes widened, and his tone became more excited: "Special circumstances? What special circumstances could there be? My father is still lying in there with his life and death uncertain, but they didn't even ask! How can such a person deserve to be called a human being!"
Qin Yuan understood Duan Jinglin's mood, and he didn't say anything more. The two of them just stood silently outside the ward, each thinking about their own thoughts. It wasn't until the next day, when Qin Yuan brought up this topic again, that Duan Jinglin's mood calmed down a little.
"Brother Yuan, I went to ask the doctor. He said that the accident was caused by a large truck and was entrusted to the insurance company. We have never seen the perpetrator at all, and we don't even know who he is." Duan Jinglin's voice was full of helplessness. and disappointment. He originally thought that he could at least meet the perpetrator, argue with him face to face, and let him know his mistake. But now, this wish has come to nothing.
When Qin Yuan heard this, anger surged in his heart. He did not expect that the perpetrator would evade responsibility so much and blame everything on the insurance company. Such behavior undoubtedly causes great harm to the victim's family. He clenched his fists tightly and said firmly: "Jing Lin, we can't just let it go. Although the perpetrators don't see us, we can protect our rights and interests through legal channels. We want him to know that evading responsibility is It won’t work!”
Duan Jinglin looked at Qin Yuan, his eyes shining with gratitude. He knew that Qin Yuan was a man of his word, and since he said so, he would definitely do it. He nodded and said firmly: "Brother Yuan, you are right. We can't just let it go. We want to seek justice for my dad!"
In the following days, Qin Yuan and Duan Jinglin began to run around, collecting evidence and consulting lawyers. Although they were exhausted, their hearts were full of hope. They know that as long as they don't give up, they will be able to seek justice for Duan's father.
However, things are not as simple as they imagined. Although the insurance company agreed to compensate, the amount of compensation was far lower than they expected. But the perpetrator himself never showed up, as if he had disappeared from the world. This made Qin Yuan and Duan Jinglin very frustrated.
"Brother Yuan, what do you think we should do? The compensation from the insurance company is simply not enough to cover the medical expenses, let alone the subsequent recovery costs." Duan Jinglin's voice was full of helplessness and anxiety. He looked at Qin Yuan with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Qin Yuan took a deep breath and tried to calm down. He knew that he couldn't panic at this time, let alone be chaotic. He patted Duan Jinglin on the shoulder and said firmly: "Jinglin, don't worry. We still have a chance. Since the insurance company won't help, then we will go directly to the perpetrator himself. He can't hide away his whole life, right? ?”
When Duan Jinglin heard this, a light flashed in his eyes. He knew that what Qin Yuan said made sense. Although the perpetrator is hiding, as long as we don't give up looking for him, we will find him one day. He nodded and said firmly: "Brother Yuan, you are right. We can't just give up. We have to find the perpetrator himself and make him responsible for his actions!"
As a result, Qin Yuan and Duan Jinglin began to inquire about the whereabouts of the perpetrator. They traveled to every corner of Haidong City and questioned countless people, but they still found no trace of the perpetrator. This made them feel heavier and heavier, as if they were weighed down by a huge boulder and couldn't breathe.
"Let's go to the police station." Qin Yuan finally made up his mind to find out who the perpetrator was.
The sky in Haidong City was gloomy, as if foreshadowing the coming storm. Qin Yuan stepped into the door of the police station with a solemn expression, his heart filled with uneasiness and anger. Duan's father's car accident has been delayed for too long, and the perpetrator has not yet appeared, which makes Qin Yuan feel extremely anxious. He was determined to come to the police station in person to retrieve the surveillance video, hoping to find some clues.
Walking into the monitoring room, Qin Yuan's eyes swept across the screen, looking for that critical time period. However, when he finally located the day when Duan's father was hit, the video at that time mysteriously disappeared. His heart suddenly sank, and an ominous premonition came to him.
"What's going on? Why was the video at that time deleted?" Qin Yuan turned around and stared at the policeman in charge of surveillance with a burning question in his tone.
The policeman was obviously taken aback by Qin Yuan's momentum. He hesitated and said: "This... I don't know this. There may be a problem with the system, or... or it was deleted deliberately. ”
"Deleted on purpose?" Qin Yuan frowned, and his voice was low and powerful, "Are you sure it was deleted on purpose?"
The policeman nodded and shook his head, obviously he was not sure. Qin Yuan looked at him, and an unknown fire surged in his heart. He knew that the disappearance of this video was definitely not a coincidence. Someone must have done it deliberately to cover up the truth.
"I want to see your chief." Qin Yuan's voice was as cold as the cold wind, making the police present shiver involuntarily. They knew that this seemingly ordinary young man was by no means an ordinary person.
Soon, the police chief arrived in a hurry. He glanced at Qin Yuan and couldn't help but feel a little confused. What is the background of this young man that he dares to cause trouble in the police station?
"Are you the director here?" Qin Yuan looked at the director of public security with a hint of disdain in his tone, "I want to know why the video of Duan's father being hit was deleted?"
The police chief was shocked when he heard this. He quickly retrieved the surveillance records and found that the video was gone. His face instantly became serious, and he knew that this matter was definitely not simple.
"Sir, may I ask who you are..." The police chief looked at Qin Yuan, trying to catch some clues from his expression and tone.
"I am Qin Yuan, from the military." Qin Yuan said calmly. Although his tone was calm, it revealed an unquestionable majesty.
The police chief was shocked when he heard this. Someone from the military? He quickly searched for information about Qin Yuan in his mind, but found that he knew nothing about the name. However, he is well aware of the power of the military and knows that he cannot easily offend people in the military.
"Mr. Qin, we will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." The public security director said firmly, "Please wait a moment. I will contact the traffic police system immediately to see if the video can be restored."
After that, the Public Security Bureau chief quickly walked aside, picked up the phone and started to contact the traffic police system. Qin Yuan stood there, watching everything with a cold look. He knew that this matter would never be that simple. There must be a secret behind the disappearance of that video.
After a while, the Public Security Bureau chief came back. His face was still serious, but there was a hint of determination in his eyes. "Mr. Qin, we have contacted the traffic police system. They are trying to restore the video, but it may take some time."
Qin Yuan nodded to show his understanding. He knew that restoring the video was not an easy task and required professional technology and equipment. But he also understood that he could not just wait like this. He must take the initiative to find more clues.
"Chief, I want to see the records before and after the video." Qin Yuan suddenly said, "Maybe we can find some clues from it."
The Public Security Bureau chief was shocked when he heard this. He quickly retrieved the records before and after the video and checked them carefully with Qin Yuan. The two said nothing, just staring at the screen tightly, for fear of missing any details.
Time passed by minute by minute, and only the faint light from the screen and the heavy breathing of the two people were left in the monitoring room. Finally, after checking it repeatedly several times, Qin Yuan found a suspicious detail.
"Look here." Qin Yuan pointed to a corner of the screen with a hint of excitement in his tone, "This person appeared in the monitoring a few minutes before Duan's father was hit. He looked sneaky and seemed to be observing something."
Upon hearing this, the director of the public security bureau immediately moved closer to the screen and checked it carefully. Sure enough, he found the suspicious figure. The man was wearing dark clothes, a hat and a mask, almost covering his face. But his every move revealed an unusual atmosphere.
