Chapter 1929: The Taxi Driver
“Officer, look, no one’s injured. The car’s just a little banged up. Can we just go directly to the insurance company and pay for the damages?”
The taxi driver immediately refused and started to make a scene. “The taxi is from the taxi company. If an insurance report for this accident that you caused is made, I might be fired. How can I just let this go? If you want me to forgive you, along with getting the insurance company to repair the car, you must give me an additional 100,000 yuan as compensation!”
“Huh?! You’re really asking for too much! I just heard this lady say that you were speeding. You were speeding and tailgating us! Even though it was my bad suddenly stepping on the brakes, you should not have been so close to us. The rear collision was entirely your fault. Yet you have the nerve to ask me to pay 100,000 yuan?”
The taxi driver’s face was flushed. He was about to retort when Chi Yang coldly berated him.
“Shut up!”
Even though Chi Yang’s voice was not loud, it was extremely threatening.
The three people who were arguing instantly fell silent.
At this time, information regarding the three people involved had already been passed to the captain of the police. At first, the captain was more inclined to believe that the three of them were conspiring to kill. However, after reviewing their backgrounds, he turned to Chi Yang and Nuannuan and asked, “Sir, Madam, why don’t we talk outside?”
“Let’s just talk here.” Chi Yang adjusted his posture. Out of all the policemen in the room, he was the person with the best posture.
He had just received a call from Li Jingyan. Knowing that Sze Lingyun had almost died in a car accident, Li Jingyan was both angry and terrified. However, since he was currently training at the Eagle Special Forces academy, he could not able to leave the combat squad to meet see his girlfriend. All he could do was ask Chi Yang to help his fiance make the right decision regarding this.
Chi Yang, who had already made a promise to his brother, would definitely not let this matter go so easily.
For his brother’s sake, he would ensure that the investigation of this accident was as thorough it could be.
“Okay,” responded the captain of the police. He adjusted his glasses, which had slid down his nose from his sweat. He continued, “Initially, I thought that these three people might have been bribed to murder someone by causing a road accident, like what you suggested. However, our team has just obtained all relevant information about them based on their descriptions. The taxi driver’s name is Wang Yanqing. He has been in the taxi industry for 16 years. His daughter is 13 years old and has just entered the first year of junior high school. She was diagnosed with uremia a month ago. He and his wife did their very best to organize a kidney transplant for their daughter. Although his daughter has been discharged from the hospital now, there’s a long period where the risk of rejection of the new organ is high—so his daughter is currently on many medications. He’s his family’s only breadwinner, and his wife isn’t in good health either. We looked into his, his wife’s, and even both their parents’ accounts, and there’ve been no big transactions made recently to any of them. It is unlikely that he was hired to kill.”
“It’s unlikely?” Chi Yang honed in on that phrase and repeated it as he fixed his gaze on the captain of the police.
“It’s impossible! Definitely impossible!”
“Have you had someone investigate how Wang Yanqing paid for his daughter’s kidney transplant?” said a voice from behind them. The captain of the criminal police turned around to see who it was. He then immediately stood up and called out, “Chief!”
The chief quickly walked over and gave Chi Yang a standard military salute. He said loudly, “Reporting to my chief, I am the 138th student of the Eagle Special Combat Team, Yin Ge, currently the chief of the Public Security Bureau of Wangcheng Are, Sea District!”
