Chapter 313
"Mr. Sun, he just owes 20,000 yuan. But you see, he is badly injured. If he isn't sent to the hospital at once, and something happens, well… After all, he is your employee, so you will have to pay much more than 20,000."
"My employee?"
Sun Xiao laughed, "Do I have a labor contract with him? No. Even if he died, it's not my problem. If he does not pay me back today, I absolutely cannot let him go!"
As soon as Lin Qingwan heard this, she frowned and said, "How can you be so inhuman? Just 20,000 Yuan? I'll give it to you, now get the man to the hospital."
When Sun Xiao heard this, he immediately chuckled like he'd won a prize.
Seeing that Lin Qingwan had already taken out her bank card, Zhao Hongshuo struggled to sit up and he loudly said, "Manager Lin, I appreciate your kindness, but I can't take your money."
Lin Qingwan was stunned. She could see Zhao Hongshuo was very poor, and he needed money. She didn't understand why he'd refuse.
"Veterans have a certain sense of integrity," Ye Fei said with a sigh. Today's society was so focused on money, and so many people could be controlled with the right amount of it.
However, Zhao Hongshuo was not an ordinary person, but a n.o.ble man with integrity.
"I admire your character very much. But now is not the time to say that," Ye Fei said kindly. Then he thought for a while and said, "Right now, the most important thing is to send you to the hospital. Otherwise, you'll lose a lot of blood. For getting the bag back, Manager Lin will give you 20,000 yuan as a reward. Please, don't refuse."
Because of the blood loss, Zhao Hongshuo was nearly unconscious. He knew if he was not sent to the hospital quickly, he could be in real trouble,
Lin Qingwan had never met someone like this. She simply said, "All right. If you insist."
Then Zhao Hongshuo was placed on a stretcher and sent to the hospital.
Ye Fei also went to the hospital and helped Zhao Hongshuo completed the admission procedures. After he was sent into the ward and Zhao Tie came to take care of him, Ye Fei left.
He immediately went straight to the police station.
"h.e.l.lo, Mr. Ye."
The deputy director of the police station, Qian Guanjun, came to meet Ye Fei in person.
"Director Qian, I've come here to make a statement," Ye Fei said. Then he smiled and said, "By the way, I want to see the suspect."
"Well, Director Qin has already told me. However, the suspect named Mingo is still in the hospital, so I can take you there after you give a statement," Director Qian said hurriedly.
Ye Fei just made a very simple statement, then Qian Guanjun drove Ye Fei to the police hospital.
When they reached the front of the hospital, a police officer rushed out and said to Qian Guanjun, "Director Qian, we were going to come find you. Something bad happened!"
"Don't panic. Speak slowly, what is the matter?" Director Qian asked with a frown.
"The suspect Mingo, while we weren't looking, unexpectedly cut his tongue with fragments of gla.s.s, and he's been sent to the emergency room."
"Mingo is only 13 years old, why would he cut his own tongue? Does he have any mental illness?"
The deputy director was stunned. He had been a policeman for over thirty years and had never encountered this kind of thing.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"
Ye Fei clenched his hands and shouted, "These stupid children have been brainwashed by others! That's why they do such crazy things!"
Men like Old Joe were able to manipulate these young children, whose minds weren't mature yet, into hating adults and society. His impact on society was even worse than Ye Fei had originally thought.
Ye Fei stood at the door of the emergency room for a while. He learned that Mingo's situation did not look good, and for now, it was impossible for him to speak.
Ye Fei did not want to give up, and he made Qian Guanjun take him to find some of the other thieves. He wanted to get some clues from them.
But, as Ye Fei expected, Mingo was part of a core group of thieves and the others weren't, so they didn't know anything that could help Ye Fei.
-----
The next day, Ye Fei took fruit and milk to Zhao Hongshuo in the hospital.
Zhao Hongshuo had a dozen st.i.tches on his belly. His injury was not serious except for the loss of blood. By the next day, he could even get up to go to the bathroom by himself.
The next few days, whenever Ye Fei was free, he went to visit Zhao Hongshuo, and they grew very close very quickly.
On the fifth day, Zhao Hongshuo wanted to get his st.i.tches out and leave hospital. He didn't want to spend any more money than he had to.
Ye Fei understood and asked Zhao Tie for help taking Zhao Hongshuo home.
