At this point, he dared not say that the old man had been paralyzed on one side after the accident, because he knew exactly what had happened.
Besides, if the hospital staff finds out, he'll be finished.
I just hope these police officers leave quickly and don't get caught by the hospital leadership.
Unfortunately, his hopes were dashed, as the hospital leaders had already arrived.
"Officer, what's going on here?"
The hospital director was a little confused. How come there were so many people in this empty ward, and the police were even called in?
Feng Ning briefly explained the situation, and the dean looked at Wang Zhi with wide eyes.
"What did you say? This person isn't a doctor at our hospital at all."
All eyes were on Wang Zhi, who felt like he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself.
It's all Wang Xing's fault. That guy is so unreliable; he actually alerted the police.
At this point, he had no other choice. He immediately took off his white coat, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to admit his mistake.
"Dean, please forgive me this once. I just really wanted to try what it's like to be a doctor, so I put on the white coat."
I just wanted to be a doctor and show off a bit; I really didn't have any bad intentions.
The hospital director was furious. After being reminded, he realized that the man was a handyman at the hospital.
He immediately gave instructions to his assistant.
"Fire this person, pay him his salary immediately, and deduct his fine."
Then the dean smiled and spoke to the police officer.
"Officer, I'm so sorry, but this person is no longer with the hospital. You can decide how to punish him."
The dean stood quietly to the side; it was no longer his concern.
Since Wang Zhi was just pretending to be a doctor and said a few random things, and no serious consequences were caused, the police officers let him go and only gave him a verbal warning.
Wang Xing patted the old man, signaling him to get up quickly.
But the old man didn't budge, which infuriated Wang Xing.
This old man is completely useless. He plays a patient without making a sound. Now that he should be running away, he's still pretending to be dead.
They were quickly questioned, and after a doctor's examination, it was found that the old man was physically fine, but he simply couldn't move.
This puzzled the doctors, as they couldn't find anything wrong with the tests.
Wang Xing's eyes darted around, and he had another idea.
"Dad, you're right, that kid really knocked you down, you're truly innocent! Officer, you must do us justice!"
Feng Ning and his colleagues exchanged glances; this situation was something they hadn't expected.
I thought it was a staged accident, but it turned out to be a real accident.
That makes things complicated. We need to find clues to prove Gu Le's innocence or to find evidence of his crime.
"We will investigate this matter thoroughly. Gu Le, please stay at home for now and do not leave the province so that we can summon you."
Gu Le was also very frustrated. He was truly an innocent victim. Although the police officer didn't say anything, he still couldn't clear his name.
Gu Le carried Xiao Li home, fed the two little ones something in the evening, and then went to bed early.
But his eyes were wide open; he wasn't asleep at all.
Xiao Li also wanted to make Gu Le happy, but in order for the bad guys to get the punishment they deserved, she could only make Gu Le suffer for now.
That evening, a post appeared online showing several large men and women weeping around an old man lying in a hospital bed.
"Dad, you're really in a terrible situation. That kid hit you and then refused to take responsibility, not even paying for your medical expenses."
"That damned brat, he's so wicked! Is there any justice in this world?"
"Father, what will we do without you?"
"Dad, our family is so poor, how are we going to pay for the medical bills?"
"Waaaaah..."
The entire internet was filled with sympathy; people donated money, sent gifts, and visited the patient in the ward—it was quite a lively scene.
Some people even recounted most of what happened that day online, but failed to point out the most crucial details.
For example, whether Gu Le hit the person, how serious the injury was, whether medical expenses were paid, and the content of the police interviews were all altered.
All the malice was directed at Gu Le, and Xiao Li had 123 block all of this content so that Gu Le wouldn't know.
"I saw it with my own eyes, that old man was truly in a terrible state, he was completely paralyzed..."
"Who is this boy? He needs to step forward and take responsibility!"
"I've already asked an expert to analyze this, and we'll be able to find out who this person is very soon."
Some people even started doxxing Gu Le based on blurry photos circulating online.
Soon after, all of Gu Le's information was presented to netizens.
Xiao Li felt it was about time and quickly got to work.
"Tongzi, get to work."
The cheerful symbol 123 means that no one who has attacked Gu Le can escape it.
Then upload the video recorded that day.
The situation took an instant turn.
The facts are quite obvious: Gu Le did not encounter the old man at all.
Wang Xing's words and actions constituted extortion, which alarmed not only netizens but also the police.
Wang Xing and his 'brothers and sisters' were all taken to the police station for questioning.
Xiao Li gave each of them a truth-telling talisman, and the police officers' questioning went exceptionally smoothly.
Are you trying to stage an accident?
"Yes, we are not father and son, or brothers and sisters at all. We are a gang."
"What was your modus operandi?"
"We'll have the old man stage an accident first, and then I'll jump in and say he hit my dad."
After taking us to the hospital, Wang Zhi would exaggerate the severity of our condition, making us pay the medical bills and reimburse us.
Feng Ning felt a chill run down his spine; this was the first time he had ever encountered such a question.
However, he still gritted his teeth and continued asking questions.
Is there anything else?
“If he doesn’t pay compensation, I will use people’s sympathy for the weak to force him to comply, and then I will play the victim online again to make him be cyberbullied until he pays the money.”
Feng Ning had never seen such a ruthless person. How could someone who was not related to him be framed like this?
"Since you're a gang, you must have done this kind of thing a lot before."
"Of course, we've succeeded more than once; we have other things to do."
Wang Xing's face contorted; he clearly didn't want to say anything more, but unfortunately, he couldn't control his mouth.
He covered his mouth tightly with his hand.
With a single glance from Feng Ning, the people next to him handcuffed Wang Xing's hands.
Wang Xing began to recount his and his gang's criminal history.
After a day and a night, Feng Ning looked at the thick case file and let out a sigh of relief. He never expected that this gang was so big, involving as many as eight cases.
At this point, all members of the gang have been apprehended.
What awaits them is imprisonment, and the old man lying in the hospital bed is in even worse shape; he will spend the rest of his life in a prison bed.
