Chapter 5
I want revenge! I want revenge!
"There is none left," Wang Zhi replied calmly. After carefully reviewing the records under Ma Jun's resentful gaze and confirming that the photocopy of the ID card belonged to the driver responsible for the incident, he meticulously signed his name on each page and patiently affixed his fingerprint.
Wang Zhi fell in response to the punches, and countless people began to kick and hit him. He tightly held his head, but the intense pain made him jump around like a shrimp on a hot plate
Blood gushed from his neck like a spring
Must one necessarily conform to the crowd and compromise one's principles to be considered correct
I curse you, you clearly lack discernment
He turned his head and saw his cousin's angry face
Why does upholding justice result in one enduring so much suffering?
So, were you the actual person who reported the incident? You were not at the scene at that time
"I have my own principles for being a person," Wang Zhi replied proudly, though there was a hint of forced bravado in his tone
The reason he asked this is that he signed a total of 4 characters after the transcript on the first day
He wandered through a narrow alley, and a drunken man staggered towards him, bumping into Wang Zhi.
"Are you awake?" A voice came from the doorway
"The whole day," Li Zhi replied with a strange smile.
A strange emotion was spreading within him, making him want to explode. Regardless of the outcome, he just wanted to erupt
Did I really make a mistake
That night we drank heavily, and Wang Zhi was already quite drunk. Around 5 o'clock in the morning, he said he was going to the restroom. After half an hour, he returned in a fluster, saying there had been an accident and asked me to call the police
Wang Zhi raised his head; it was the reporter named Li Zhi.
Why
His cousin's words made his heart feel as if it were being torn apart by a knife
"Oh, please wait a moment." Officer Li regained consciousness and instructed the other officer to print the witness record, then fixed a gaze of astonishment and uncertainty on Wang Zhi
Wang Zhi raised the knife without hesitation
He roared in agony like a beast, as the long-suppressed anger deep within him surged forth, overwhelming his reason
Why do those who do bad things seem to have good lives, driving luxury cars and living in large houses
Is there anything wrong with honesty? Is there anything wrong with justice
I uphold my principles; what is wrong with speaking the truth
I—X—your mother
Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?
What is wrong with acting bravely in the face of injustice
But why is the outcome of each matter like this
What is wrong with me reporting bad people
Some looked at him in astonishment, while he merely walked forward in a daze
Wang Zhi saw that group of people starting to walk over here, and he straightened his body, preparing to receive their gratitude
I deeply regret the harm caused and feel a great deal of guilt. I hope to atone by compensating the victim's family. However, at that time, a drunken man suddenly crossed the road, and while I was trying to avoid him, I collided with an electric vehicle parked by the roadside. Later, that person ran away, and I felt extremely scared. Since the car was not mine, I drove away in panic.
Since you were young, you have not liked me. I chose not to stoop to your level. But why must you insist on ruining everything for both of us to feel satisfied? Do you not know that both your brother-in-law and I work at Chenghui Group?
Fortunately, although his whole body was in excruciating pain, he could still move his hands and feet
He stumbled down the corridor, passing by the surgical room, where he quietly concealed a sharp scalpel
... ... ''
Regarding the suspect Wang Zhi, who may have falsely reported the case and delayed the reporting time, resulting in the victim's death, the victim's family feels extremely angry. After completing the inquiry, Wang Zhi had a violent physical confrontation with the victim's family
I... how long have I been dizzy
He saw a group of people standing more than ten meters away, and Ma Jun was speaking to them about something; their emotions were very intense
... ... ''
Is there anything else you need me to assist with? he asked calmly
This afternoon, the sole witness to the Ferrari accident, Wang, was questioned by the traffic police headquarters, and the police stated that there are doubts regarding his testimony
Wang Zhi hesitated for a moment, then turned on the television, just in time for the evening news
He tore off the needle from his wrist and then fumbled to put on his shoes
He suddenly sat up
A wave of dizziness hit him; he pressed hard on his temples and then began to recall.
He reflected on his past
Cousin, I ... ...
The recent highly publicized Ferrari hit-and-run case in this city has seen new developments; please see the report
Wang Zhi walked out of the witness room with his head held high, the brilliant sunlight streaming down from between the buildings onto his face, bringing him immense comfort
Wave
Why is it that those people can easily turn black into white?
This morning, a source revealed that Wang Zhi had attempted to extort a hush money of 100,000 yuan from the car owner, Mr. Yang, but was refused
Before he lost consciousness, the only thought that crossed his mind was, I am helping them
He shouted loudly, enunciating each word clearly.
The phone is mine, and I also dialed it, the phone that Wang Zhi spoke on. When we called the police, we were at the barbecue stall
He walked out of the hospital
They had originally reached an agreement with Chenghui Group for a compensation of 800,000. After receiving the money, they would not file an appeal, cause any trouble, or concern themselves with anything, and would return to their hometown. However, now the situation has escalated, and Chenghui Group has stated that they can no longer provide the funds. Li Zhi replied calmly
Otherwise, he will surely die
Wang Zhi, what exactly do you want? Our family has been more than accommodating to you. My mother is nearly 70 years old; do you want to drive her to her grave before you are satisfied
I want revenge
"X, do you not have eyes?" he shouted angrily, and then continued walking forward
After a long time, Wang Zhi finally couldn't help but ask: "Officer Li, is there a place where I need to sign?"
Wang Zhi leaned close to his ear, allowing the blood to spray onto himself and his face
I am Zhang Ping, a reporter from Cool 6 Channel. This morning, Ferrari driver Song Guangping turned himself in to the traffic police department accompanied by his family
Wang Zhi
At 36 years old, Wang Zhi has only 24 years of memory, yet he has always believed himself to be a commendable person, one who upholds justice and has a clear conscience
Wang Zhi, why don't you go die
"No," Li Zhi replied. After a while, he asked, "Why don't you accept their terms?"
"Are you here to hear a joke?" His voice sounded unlike his own, yet he still tried to calmly turn his head to look at Li Zhi
Is that so? Li Zhi replied briefly. After a while, he added, "To be honest, I find it a bit hard to understand you. You don't seem like an immature person, yet you appear as innocent as a child. I... I admire you."
Wang Zhi silently endured the beating until his cousin left, exhausted.
There have been reports from the public, with a self-proclaimed witness, Wang Zhi, stating that he was eating a late-night snack at the night market near the intersection of Wuyi Road at the time of the incident. He arrived alone near the scene approximately 5 minutes before the incident, while the time of the report to the police was nearly 15 minutes after the accident occurred. Therefore, there are significant doubts regarding his testimony
With a loud bang, Wang Zhi struck the bedside table with a heavy fist. The intense pain brought tears to his eyes, yet his heart was bleeding.
"He is a family member of the victim." The journalist named Li Zhi said from a short distance, looking at the book. He regarded Wang Zhi with a complex gaze, one that contained both suspicion and admiration, but more than anything, it resembled sympathy
He fell down
He sat blankly on the edge of the bed, gazing at the night sky outside the window
There is none left," Officer Li replied with a grim expression
Cousin, you ... ...
"X, you mother! Are you sick?" An old woman spat at him, and then another robust middle-aged man directly punched him.
"Why not watch the television? The news should be on. I think you should prepare in advance," he concluded with this remark.
Why does adhering to principles result in the suffering and eventual death of parents in such a painful manner
The shaking camera revealed Wang Zhi lying on the ground, surrounded by a group of frenzied individuals who were mercilessly beating him. There were many police officers nearby, yet not a single one intervened or even attempted to dissuade the assailants
Before it is recorded, do you have any additional comments or modifications? he asked persistently
Wang Zhi fell silent for a moment, and finally could not help but ask, "What happened? Why?"
What else do you have to say? Think about how many troubles you have caused from childhood to now. Why can't you ever learn from your mistakes? Have you ever considered how your parents died? They died from worry because of you! They died from anger because of you!
His heart became very cold, and his body was trembling slightly
When Wang Zhi woke up, he was surrounded once again by a despairing expanse of white
The verification room was enveloped in silence
Wang Zhi did not speak again, so he remained silent for a while and then walked out of the ward
