The police officer glanced at Jiang Tingzhou, then at the wheelchair the man was sitting in.
Although he didn't know Jiang Tingzhou, he had overheard the conversation between the man and the injured man's wife.
The injured man's wife is currently in an unstable mental state, and the person in front of her will likely make the decisions from now on.
"Okay." The policeman nodded. "Let's go together."
Jiang Tingzhou was in his own car, following behind the police car.
Upon arriving at the police station, the police first took a statement from the perpetrator.
After giving his statement, the perpetrator said to Jiang Tingzhou, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to. I will definitely pay for his medical treatment, even if it means selling my house and car."
Jiang Tingzhou remained silent, simply observing the perpetrator.
The man was in his early thirties, not very tall, and had the air of an honest and unassuming person.
Jiang Tingzhou said coldly, "He spends ten or twenty thousand yuan a day in the ICU. It's okay if he stays there for ten days or half a month, but if he stays there for one or two months, how much is your car worth? How are you going to compensate him?"
"I will compensate you, I definitely will!"
The driver who caused the accident clenched his hands tightly together as he spoke, and he didn't dare to look Jiang Tingzhou in the eye.
Jiang Tingzhou kept looking at him. "Looks like you're quite rich. You don't even hesitate to spend so much money."
This driver looks like a complete poor man.
Let alone millions, he doesn't seem like the type to come up with even a few hundred thousand. His clothes are so old; he must be used to being frugal.
This person, knowing that Ning Hang might have high medical expenses, didn't hesitate at all?
"ah……"
The driver was clearly a little flustered.
He swallowed hard and looked at Jiang Tingzhou, saying, "I...I...it's a matter of life and death. I have to help him even if I don't have money."
Over the years, Jiang Tingzhou has seen all sorts of people.
He could see through a lie of the driver's caliber at a glance.
Jiang Tingzhou didn't expose him, and nodded: "You have the heart, and it's clear you're not a bad person, but right now it's not about money. You just heard it, their wife is pregnant, so they definitely won't accept mediation. If they sue you, you'll definitely go to jail."
"I know, I'm willing, I'm willing to make amends!"
The driver kept his head down, but his answer was straightforward.
Jiang Tingzhou looked at him. "It seems... you are well aware of the consequences of hitting someone?"
"I didn't!" The driver initially denied it, then looked up and explained in a panic, "No, I, I, we drivers certainly know, I've been driving for years, this is the first time something like this has happened, really, I really didn't expect this..."
The police initially thought it was just a regular traffic accident.
After all, in a big city like Beicheng, traffic accidents of all sizes happen every day.
Accidents caused by truck drivers being fatigued are also common on nearby highways.
Jiang Tingzhou asked several times, and given the driver's attitude, the police naturally noticed something amiss.
The police officer said, "You should talk to your family about this recently. We'll check the surveillance footage, and if necessary, we may detain you."
"Okay, okay, I understand."
The driver nodded hesitantly, his expression somewhat blank.
Because no motive for murder has been found, the police cannot forcibly detain the driver.
After the driver left, Jiang Tingzhou asked, "May I see the video from that time?"
The policeman said, "Okay."
Jiang Tingzhou went with the police to see several surveillance videos from that time.
Based on the surveillance footage, it does indeed appear to be a car accident caused by driver fatigue.
The police also sensed that there might be other possibilities in this case. After inquiring about Ning Hang's situation, they said, "We will investigate further and will contact you as soon as we have any updates."
Jiang Tingzhou left the police station.
Instead of going home, he went to the hospital again.
