Cui Zijing held Lin Jiaqiao's hand tightly, her face full of pleading. She wanted to say something, but her words turned into a series of coughs.
Lin Jiaqiao hurriedly comforted her: "I know, we will go to rescue Master right away, don't worry."
After checking the door on the other side, Qin Guan said to Lin Jiaqiao, "The door of the cab can't be opened. We have to pull the person out from the co-pilot side."
Cui Zijing struggled, as if trying to unbuckle her seat belt and give up her seat to them.
Qin Guan quickly stopped her.
After confirming that she had no external injuries, he found a utility knife from his car and tried to cut the seat belt.
The car was now overturned, with Cui Zijing hanging upside down on the roof. Qin Guan was worried that she would lose the protection of the seat belt and fall down and get injured again, so he used a somewhat awkward protective posture.
After trying hard again, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm and couldn't even hold the knife.
Lin Jiaqiao immediately picked up the knife and said, "I'll do it. You teach me how to do it."
Qin Guan smiled bitterly, "I'm not trying to be brave. If you can do it, I won't do it myself."
He explained: "Cui Zijing can't be hurt again now, you can't hold her."
This is true. Cui Zijing is taller than Lin Jiaqiao and her muscles are well-developed. Lin Jiaqiao really can't hug her.
Lin Jiaqiao gritted his teeth and said, "I'll fight with all my strength, okay? You can't go on. Do you still want your arm?"
Qin Guan became serious, "Lin Zhizhi, don't mess around. This is not something you can just risk your life for. You can't control people's instinctive reactions—"
Seeing the two people quarreling, Cui Zijing stretched out her arms and said weakly: "I think I'm fine. I can climb out by myself."
Qin Guan sighed: "You think it's useless."
"I saw a case where an old man was hit by a car and thrown three meters away. He got up and cursed at the car owner for ten minutes, then walked away. But before he could take ten steps, blood started flowing from all his orifices and he died on the spot."
"I can only confirm that your external injuries are not serious, but I can't confirm whether you have internal injuries. So, you stay still."
He looked at Cui Boxing next door across Cui Zijing.
He knew very well that Cui Boxing's condition was not good and he needed rescue as soon as possible.
Qin Guan always felt that a human life was more important than his own arm. He was determined to do it, but suddenly a faint light came from a distance.
Lin Jiaqiao was overjoyed: "The ambulance is here!"
Qin Guan also breathed a sigh of relief.
But they were soon disappointed again.
What came was not an ambulance, but just a passing Jinbei car.
Lin Jiaqiao looked at Qin Guan, then at Cui Zijing, made up his mind, and stood in the middle of the road.
The Jinbei car noticed the situation from a distance. The driver didn't want to cause trouble, so he stepped on the accelerator to leave this dangerous place, but suddenly he saw an extra person in the middle of the road.
Most of his attention was on the car accident on the side of the road, so he braked too slowly and almost hit Lin Jiaqiao.
He was so scared that he wanted to curse, but Qin Guan had already pulled Lin Jiaqiao aside. He was still in shock, and his voice was almost frozen: "Lin! Jia! Qiao!"
Lin Jiaqiao broke free from him, ran to the side of the Jinbei, and asked through the car window: "Uncle, can you help me? My friend was in a car accident and needs help."
The driver was an honest-looking man, probably in his fifties or sixties.
He looked at Cui Baixing's overturned car, then at Lin Jiaqiao and Qin Guan, and said vigilantly: "If you need help, call an ambulance. I'm just a country boy and I can't do this kind of thing."
Human life is at stake, so Qin Guan temporarily stopped arguing with Lin Jiaqiao. He chimed in, "The ambulance has been called, and it should be here soon, but the injured person can't wait any longer, he needs help."
"My hand is broken and I need your help."
"Uncle, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Can you help me?"
The uncle was still afraid that they would blackmail him, so he said hesitantly: "Let's wait for the ambulance. I, I really can't do such delicate work."
Qin Guan's upbringing meant that he rarely needed to ask for help from others. He had almost no contact with people living at the bottom of society and didn't know how to convince them. Lin Jiaqiao was different. When she was reporting on the news, she met all kinds of people.
She knew how to get along with them.
She put on a bully face and said, "You don't want to care, right? Fine, I'll remember your license plate number."
"I forgot to tell you that I'm a reporter. Tomorrow I'll write about you leaving two people to die on the side of the road. By then, your village, no, the whole city, will know about your good deed!"
"You'll see."
The driver was anxious, but he couldn't think of any rebuttal. He could only mutter: "I didn't, I didn't, you can't talk nonsense."
After Lin Jiaqiao finished playing the white-faced role, he winked at Qin Guan, signaling him to play the red-faced role. Qin Guan hurriedly said, "Uncle, I don't think you are a bad guy."
The uncle seemed to have found a soulmate: "Yes, yes, you are right. I am well-known in our village for my good heart."
Qin Guan continued: "Just help me cut the seat belt and pick up the girl inside. It's not a big deal, really."
Lin Jiaqiao chimed in: "If you're worried that we're scammers, I'll record it for you and promise not to cheat you."
The uncle hesitated for a moment, finally turned off the engine and got out of the car.
He looked at Lin Jiaqiao and emphasized: "I am doing this."
Lin Jiaqiao nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I will write a report for you tonight and let everyone in the city know."
Cui Zijing had been awake the whole time and heard the conversation between the three people. When the driver came over, she wanted to thank him, and the minty smell with a fishy smell suddenly became stronger.
Mixed with the bloody smell in the car, the smell makes people want to vomit.
It turned out to be him.
Cui Zijing held the driver's hand tightly.
Cui Zijing’s grip was so strong that it almost dug into the uncle’s skin. The uncle was startled and instinctively took a step back.
Lin Jiaqiao thought Cui Zijing was having a stress reaction, so he quickly held her hand and explained, "Jingjing, I'm Lin Jiaqiao. Uncle is here to help us."
Cui Zijing's unfocused eyes dimmed and she slowly loosened her hand.
The uncle rescued Cui Zijing under the guidance of Qin Guan, and Lin Jiaqiao accompanied her on the roadside.
Qin Guan climbed in from the passenger seat and after checking Cui Baixing's condition, he shouted to Lin Jiaqiao, "Zizi, hurry up for the ambulance!"
Cui Zijing immediately became nervous and grabbed Lin Jiaqiao's clothes. Lin Jiaqiao patted her hands soothingly and communicated with the ambulance.
"They said they'll be here in ten minutes at most." Lin Jiaqiao asked, "How is Master doing?"
Cui Zijing was indeed not seriously injured, only her cheek and forehead were scraped. Cui Boxing's condition was much more frightening, a piece of the center console was broken off and stuck into his ribs, and blood kept flowing out.
As for those invisible injuries, I don’t know how many there are.
Qin Guan was measuring Cui Baixing's heartbeat and replied, "Not very good, weak heartbeat. I suspect he has lost too much blood. Do you know your master's blood type?"
Lin Jiaqiao didn't know.
Cui Zijing replied: "Type O, the same as me, I can give blood to my father"
"You can't." Qin Guan said, "Blood transfusions cannot be performed between direct blood relatives."
He consoled her: "Type O blood is not a rare blood type. The blood bank should have it."
"Does your father have a history of drug allergies? We should prepare these questions in advance to facilitate the doctor's rescue."
The driver was frightened by the scene before him.
He stood far away, as if he might run away at any time. But his eyes were always fixed on Cui Baixing. As if he had made up his mind, he came to Qin Guan and said to him, "Let's rescue him!"
Qin Guan and Lin Jiaqiao were both very surprised. They didn't expect that this uncle was so kind-hearted.
The uncle stamped his feet and said, "I, I don't want to cause trouble, but, but this is a matter of life and death, we can't just watch him die."
After that, he rolled up his sleeves and tried to climb into the car: "Young man, tell me what I should do. Like I saved that girl just now, okay?"
When Cui Zijing heard his words, she stood up nervously.
She was about to speak when she heard Qin Guan say, "It's not possible for the two of us. We don't have the tools, and it's easy to cause secondary damage."
"The ambulance will be here soon, don't worry."
The uncle was still worried, "We can always do something."
He kept circling the car, as if he was determined to pull Cui Boxing out.
Fortunately, the ambulance arrived quickly.
Because the information Qin Guan provided was very detailed and the medical staff were well prepared, they successfully rescued Cui Boxing.
Cui Zijing finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the news.
She asked Lin Jiaqiao: "Can I ask the driver for his contact information? I want to thank him after my dad is out of danger."
The driver stood next to the two men because he couldn't help.
Only then did he realize that Cui Zijing was blind, and he mouthed to Lin Jiaqiao in surprise: Blind
Although his words were rude, he did not show any contempt. Instead, his face showed pity: "Forget about thanking me. It's not easy for everyone."
"You guys go ahead and do your work. I'm leaving now. I have things to do at home."
After saying that, he left.
Cui Zijing was silent for a moment, then said to Lin Jiaqiao, "Wait till dawn, can you ask your father to come over? I have evidence of the murderer."
Her voice was so loud that everyone present could hear it.
Lin Jiaqiao took out his cell phone and said, "I'll call him over now."
Cui Zijing stopped her, "I'm not in the mood right now. Let's wait until dawn, until my dad is done with the rescue."
The ambulance has limited space and cannot take them all away.
Lin Jiaqiao was worried about Qin Guan's hand injury and was about to ask him to get in the car when he suddenly heard a horn. The two looked back and saw the driver sticking his head out of the golden cup: "Young man, get in my car. I'll take you there."
Lin Jiaqiao was surprised: "Didn't you leave?"
The driver replied: "The road is blocked by an ambulance. Come on up quickly."
With the weak light from the street lamps, the two saw that the passenger seat of the Jinbei car was covered with dust, and even the center console was dusty, as if no one had used it for a long time.
But now is not the time to be picky, so Qin Guan got in the car anyway.
After getting to know each other, the uncle became quite talkative. He said to Qin Guan: "The girl who stopped the car is your girlfriend, right? The real culprit."
He sighed: "However, fortunately she is fierce, otherwise I would have driven away directly."
