Old Wei finished asking about what had happened at the scene, nodded and said to me, "Alright, I understand. Don't worry, I've already asked my colleagues here to find that dump truck. The hit-and-run driver won't get away."

I said that it wasn't just about finding the hit-and-run driver, the real mastermind behind this was Liu Huangshu. I wanted to settle the score with him.

Old Wei said, "Liu Huangshu definitely won't get away either. Since he's here for the Qu Shang Ancient City, we'll definitely catch him."

I nodded, then struggled to get out of bed and asked, "Where are Uncle Mei and Da Yong? I want to see them."

I knew that their conditions must be serious, otherwise Old Wei wouldn't have had that expression just now. I wouldn't be able to rest easy unless I saw them with my own eyes.

Old Wei said, "You should lie down and rest first. Go see them tomorrow. Neither of them is in mortal danger, so don't worry."

I said I couldn't rest easy, I had to go see them.

Old Wei couldn't persuade me, so he had to help me walk to another ward.

Soon, I saw Jiang Yongguang in another ward. The usually lively Xiaoling Guard was lying weakly in bed, with casts and bandages on his head, neck, and arms, looking like a mummy.

He was currently unconscious, his eyes tightly closed. Seeing this scene, I felt extremely uncomfortable.

But Old Wei was indeed not lying to me, Jiang Yongguang's vital signs were very stable.

I asked him worriedly, "Will Da Yong be left with any disabilities?"

Old Wei shook his head and said, "Probably not. The doctor is quite optimistic about his condition, saying that as long as he rests well, he will recover soon."

"That's good." I nodded and subconsciously wanted to go to the ward next door.

Because I thought Uncle Mei should be next door to Jiang Yongguang.

But then, Old Wei stopped me and shook his head, "Little Chen, your uncle isn't here. He's on another floor."

When I heard this, my heart sank. Another floor? I vaguely remembered that the first floor underground of this building was the mortuary!

"Old Wei, what do you mean? Didn't you say Uncle Mei wasn't in mortal danger?" I asked anxiously.

Old Wei said, "Don't worry, Uncle Mei is indeed not in mortal danger, but his condition is more serious than Da Yong's. He's in the intensive care unit on another floor."

After speaking, he took me downstairs and pointed inside the intensive care unit at the door, saying, "Look, your uncle is lying there."

The intensive care unit was a sterile environment, so we were not allowed to enter. We could only watch from a distance outside, seeing Uncle Mei lying in bed with tubes all over his body.

As soon as I saw Uncle Mei like this, I felt a pang of sadness and tears fell down my face.

Old Wei said helplessly, "The dump truck hit Uncle Mei's side, and he wasn't wearing a seat belt in the passenger seat, so his condition is very serious. The doctor said that being able to save his life is already a blessing in disguise."

In 2005, cars were not as strict about seat belts as they are now.

Now, if you sit in a car and don't fasten your seat belt, it will beep continuously. This design is actually quite humane.

Early cars didn't have this design, and many people were too lazy to wear seat belts when they were in the car. When an accident happened, they were likely to die.

Here, I also advise everyone to fasten their seat belts, even if you are sitting in the back row.

I stood at the door and watched the unconscious Uncle Mei inside, for a full half hour. Old Wei finally couldn't help but remind me, "Little Chen, you're still injured yourself, go back and rest. Staring at Uncle Mei like this won't make him get better any faster."

I said I couldn't, I couldn't rest easy, I had to watch here.

Old Wei sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, then you watch here first. I'll go get you a chair, don't just stand there."

After speaking, he turned around to get me a chair.

In the second half of the night, Hu Wazi rushed over from home. As soon as he came in, he shouted loudly, "Uncle! Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! Uncle!"

The nurse on duty in the corridor quickly said to him, "Shh! This is a hospital ward, no loud noises allowed!"

As a result, Hu Wazi glared at the little nurse with his big copper-bell eyes, immediately scaring the little nurse's face pale.

Seeing Hu Wazi making a fuss, I quickly went up to him and shouted, "Hu Wazi, don't shout, I'm here."

Hu Wazi walked over in three steps and asked me, "Brother-in-law, are you okay? Where are you hurt?"

I said I was fine, I was sitting in the back row, and I wasn't seriously injured. Uncle Mei's condition was serious, and he was in the intensive care unit.

When Hu Wazi heard this, his eyes turned red, and he quickly ran to the door of the intensive care unit, grabbing the doorknob and trying to break in.

I quickly pulled him back and said, "Hu Wazi, don't be reckless. You can't just enter the intensive care unit. If you bring the bacteria in, you'll end up hurting Uncle Mei. Just look at him from the door. Uncle Mei's condition has stabilized, and he's not in mortal danger."

Hu Wazi wiped away tears with his back to me, then turned around and asked through gritted teeth, "Brother-in-law, what happened? Who did this to you? Tell me, I'll go get revenge for you!"

I told Hu Wazi the whole story. After listening, Hu Wazi shook his big fist and said, "Liu Huangshu, right? I'll beat his head until yellow pus comes out! He dared to hire a car to hit you and Uncle, I want his dog life!"

I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hu Wazi, don't be impulsive. This matter also involves Little Mei, so don't make a rash move. A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late."

Hu Wazi said, "Ten years is not too late? I'll take revenge in ten days at most. Don't let me meet this Liu Huangshu. If I meet him, I'll take revenge on the spot. Don't worry, it won't delay saving An'an!"

At this time, Old Wei came back from outside, bringing me a bowl of hot porridge. Seeing that Hu Wazi had also come, he nodded to him as a greeting.

Hu Wazi quickly walked up and said directly to Old Wei, "I'll join you in catching the rat. I want to avenge my uncle and brother-in-law. I don't care about anyone else, you leave Liu Huangshu to me."

Old Wei had long known that Hu Wazi was a gangster. To put it bluntly, although these people were much more upright than tomb robbers, they were not law-abiding citizens after all.

Especially when encountering this kind of thing, if Hu Wazi ran into Liu Huangshu, it could easily lead to someone's death.

As a public official, Old Wei certainly didn't want to work with Hu Wazi. He euphemistically said, "Hu Wazi, you should stay here and take care of Mei Sange. Sange can't be left without anyone to take care of him. Leave the matter of catching Liu Huangshu to us, and I guarantee you a satisfactory explanation."

Hu Wazi sneered, "That won't work. I have to do it myself. I don't trust anyone else. You have to agree, whether you like it or not!"

Old Wei was speechless, desperately winking at me, wanting me to persuade Hu Wazi a few words...
