Chapter 1204: 1203 is not a simple accident
“Liang Lu…” Tan Rou tapped on the car window, trying to wake the unconscious Liang Lu inside, “Liang Lu, don’t fall asleep!”
Liang Lu still had consciousness, she shook a bit, but still didn’t wake up. When the collision happened, the driver’s seat immediately moved back slightly, and the safety mode activated, so the impact on Liang Lu was reduced somewhat. Otherwise, she would have been more than just unconscious by now.
The windshield in front had shattered, but hadn’t fallen out. However, Tan Rou didn’t dare to easily smash the glass because Liang Lu was very close to it, and the broken glass could easily hurt her.
Xiao Mo picked up a stone from the side and smashed it against the glass of the right car window. Once the glass shattered, the lock on the door could be opened. But the car door was deformed, and he was unable to pull the door open by himself, “Miss Rou, let’s try to pull the door open together and see if we can get Liang Lu out from inside.”
Tan Rou calmed down a little, she went around to the right side of the window and, together with Xiao Mo, they tried to pull; the deformed door was indeed hard to open, but luckily, the two of them were strong and directly pulled the door off the car.
Tan Rou tossed the broken door aside and climbed in to check on Liang Lu, “Liang Lu, can you hear me talking?”
Liang Lu’s eyelids trembled slightly, her forehead was red and swollen from hitting the car door, and it was this injury that had caused her to fall unconscious.
Xiao Mo reminded, “Miss Rou, see if you can get Liang Lu out, the fuel tank at the front is smoking, and we can’t rule out the possibility of an explosion.”
Tan Rou tried to carry Liang Lu out, thankful that the space at the front of the car was quite large, and the seat had moved back a bit, Liang Lu’s legs were not trapped.
She opened the left car door, then went around to the left, and slowly moved Liang Lu out.
Tan Rou gave Liang Lu a quick check, and found that she had only sustained some minor injuries and there was nothing too serious.
“Stay here and look after Liang Lu, I’ll go check out what’s happening with that other car.” After settling Liang Lu, Tan Rou ordered, “I was in such a hurry earlier, I forgot to call a doctor and the traffic police, please call them.”
While Xiao Mo went to make the call, Tan Rou approached the other car. It was a rather run-down van, and there was no one in the back seat, so even if it was hit, it wouldn’t have caused any casualties.
The van driver was still sitting in the car. Seeing Tan Rou approaching, he suddenly became very scared and said, “The car accident had nothing to do with me, I didn’t mean to hit the brakes!”
Tan Rou frowned, she felt something was off, but couldn’t quite pinpoint what was strange.
“Why did you hit the brakes?” Tan Rou glanced at the road here; there were no traffic lights, no emergency exits, just a completely straight road, so the driver had no reason to brake.
The driver stammered, “I don’t know why I hit the brakes, by the time I realized it, the accident had already happened.”
Tan Rou studied the driver carefully. Although he appeared nervous and scared, there wasn’t a drop of sweat on his face, even his complexion was normal, as if his fear was all an act.
“The road here is so flat, how could you hit the brakes for no reason?” Tan Rou was very angry, she stretched her arm inside the window and grabbed the driver by the collar, “Speak! Why did you hit the brakes?”
The driver was so choked by her grip that his face turned red; he suspected this woman wanted to strangle him to death right here, so he said, “I saw a cat up ahead… yes, a cat ran across the road, and I was worried I would hit it, so I braked!”
“Nonsense!” If the window weren’t too small, Tan Rou would have really wanted to drag him out, “Your van has such a high chassis that even if there was a cat, you wouldn’t hit it.”
The driver insisted, “I braked because I saw a cat!” Anyway, there were no surveillance cameras on this section of the road; he could say whatever he wanted, and no one would find out he was lying.
“Really?” Tan Rou saw the dashcam and said, “It seems your van is equipped with a dashcam. Since you said you saw a cat, let’s turn on the dashcam and have a look.”
