“It’s like this, when I was working hauling things upstairs before, 1 got to know an uncle. He has a lot of connections and has always taken good care of me.” “The news that ginger shoots might go up in price was also from him, and it was him who pulled some strings to get us this hospital room.”

Lin Mo had been through many similar situations and answered with practiced ease.

So that’s how it was!

Liu Miao and Li Lingling had been puzzled all this time, unable to figure out how Lin Mo, a mover as ordinary as they come, could have such an intimate knowledge of the vegetable market.

He had bought ginger shoots at just the right moment and sold them off when the prices were peaking.

Such tactics weren’t something a newbie could possess.

But now, what they wanted to know even more was the identity of the uncle mentioned by Lin Mo, who had managed to arrange an overnight stay in the special care ward of the First City Hospital and even got the hospital director to personally lead the team. Just how formidable must he be!!

This wasn’t something any influential figure could achieve!

But as Lin Mo didn’t volunteer this information, it wasn’t their place to pry.

After a while, hearing conversation from outside, Li Jinwen and Lin Xiaoxiao also woke up.

Everyone stayed in the ward for a while. After watching the family of three finish their breakfast, the in-laws had intended to offer to take Lin Xiaoxiao to school but Lin Mo declined.

After a whole night of sorting out his thoughts, Lin Mo’s sense of crisis had deepened.

If his parents’ car accident were indeed orchestrated by someone,

then it was hard to rule out the possibility of a second attempt.

Therefore, for the time being, Lin Mo had no intention of letting Lin Xiaoxiao out of his and Li Jinwen’s sight.

Though they hadn’t encountered any mishaps yesterday, it’s always better to be safe than sorry!

Until the truth of the matter came to light, it was wiser to remain cautious!

“Dad, Mom, there are rooms and beds here. No need for you guys to run back and forth. Just stay here, so you can help us keep watch and provide some support.”

“Hmm, we can…”

“Cousin, cousin-in-law, you go do what you need to, and thank you for your help these past few days.”

“It’s nothing…”

“What trouble? We’re all family here.”

Lin Mo nodded.

Liu Miao and Li Lingling being able to rush over early this morning, and even attempting to inquire about the special care ward last night, although it didn’t help in the end, Lin Mo was grateful.

If there would be a chance to help them in the future, Lin Mo wouldn’t hesitate to do so.

But for now, Lin Mo didn’t say much.

Glancing at the time, Lin Mo thought for a moment and then said to Li Jinwen, “Wife, just rest here today, don’t go anywhere else. If you need anything, just ask the head nurse. I’m going to the traffic police brigade to learn about the details of the accident.”

Last night, Lin Mo had already decided that today’s priority would be gathering all clues related to yesterday’s car accident to see if he could find any leads.

Even if he couldn’t find anything, maybe the Intelligence System could turn something up!

Li Jinwen took out Lin Mo’s clothes from the backpack that Li Jinshan had brought, reminding him, “Take a hot shower before you go!”

“I specifically asked Dad yesterday to bring your clothes over.”

Lin Mo glanced unconsciously at his own attire.

When he’d arrived at the hospital yesterday, it was pouring rain, soaking him to the bone, and he’d been bustling about until now, more than a day and night later. Although his clothes were dry, they were stained with water spots all over.

His hair was greasy, and his beard had grown out.

“A shower is indeed needed, to freshen up a bit!”

Lin Mo took the clothes and stepped into the shower.

He didn’t mind being scruffy himself, but he feared it might affect Li Jinwen’s state of mind.

Seeing him a bit more refreshed, Li Jinwen should be able to feel more at ease.

After leaving the hospital.

Lin Mo hailed a taxi and went straight to the Accident Office of the Traffic Police Detachment.

The officer who received him was the same one he had met the night before at the entrance of the emergency center, and Lin Mo remembered his name was Cao Sheng.

Cao Sheng took a sip of water and asked with concern, “You seem to be doing alright, has there been any improvement in your family member’s condition?”

Lin Mo shook his head slightly, with a somewhat dim look in his eyes, and said, “Not really. The doctors said they might need a very long time to wake up, if they ever wake up at all.”

If yesterday’s car accident really was intentional, then from this moment on, Lin Mo must be cautious of everyone.

Just as he had instructed the hospital director, he shouldn’t divulge any details when asked about his family’s condition.

“Oh… the accident yesterday was indeed quite serious, and recovery will take some time. Don’t lose heart, just like today’s weather, there will eventually be a break in the clouds.” After consoling Lin Mo, Cao Sheng passed over a document and explained, “The current situation is this: the offending vehicle was burned, and the driver died on the spot.”

“However, we have already contacted the insurance company. He had bought third-party liability insurance coverage of 3 million yuan, and there will be an insurance adjuster liaising with the hospital. You don’t need to worry about the costs.”

“Just focus on taking good care of your family members and their recovery.”

Lin Mo took the document and looked at it. There were a few printed, blurry photos of the accident scene, along with a simple description of the accident and a liability determination slip.

The truck driver, fatigued, rear-ended the normally operating business car, and the truck was fully responsible.

After looking through the materials, Lin Mo paused, then asked, “Officer Cao, do you have any information about the culprit, or the contact information for his family members? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not looking for trouble.”

Cao Sheng shook his head: “We’re also trying to find them, but this guy divorced over 10 years ago, has an 8-year-old son, and the ex-wife doesn’t want to deal with him. His parents are farmers, and we haven’t been able to reach them yet.”

“However, you should brace yourself. First, the culprit has died, and second, we checked and found he barely had any assets to his name—just that totaled truck. So as far as civil compensation goes, it’s unlikely you’ll receive much.”

Compensation for the accident consists of two main parts.

The insurance is the largest portion.

Additionally, if it’s a very serious accident and the other party is wholly at fault, potentially involving a criminal conviction, the victim’s family can receive a sum of condolence money.

This sum has no ceiling; you could even claim a billion yuan without it being considered extortion or blackmail.

Of course, that doesn’t mean the other party will be willing to pay.

And whether you can obtain a letter of forgiveness from the victim will have a significant impact on the subsequent sentencing.

In essence, the law gives a portion of the power to the victim’s family to decide how they want to treat the offender.

Lin Mo wasn’t concerned about the compensation money; he was pondering a question.

The culprit’s background was too ‘clean’, and all too fitting for taking the blame.

Even if the police investigated, they wouldn’t find much useful information.

Of course, that alone couldn’t prove anything.

After some thought, Lin Mo asked again, “Officer Cao, there should be surveillance footage of the stretch of road where the accident occurred from your department, right? Could 1 have a copy?”

He had already considered watching the surveillance of the accident to obtain relevant intelligence as a potential avenue for information.

“What do you need the surveillance for?” Cao Sheng looked at Lin Mo, then regretfully shook his head: “The surveillance on that road happened to be damaged the night before the accident, and because it was raining on the day of the accident, we hadn’t managed to repair it in time, so we don’t have any footage.”

Damaged?

What a coincidence?

Lin Mo reflexively pressed on, “Was it damaged by someone deliberately?”
