"I don't know, but I will definitely be polite to them in the future," Joylyn Bucher said, seeing that Niko Haimes seemed to have forgiven himself.
"That's about right. You go wait over there, I need to talk to Bidegla," Niko Haimes said, gesturing for Joylyn Bucher to leave.
"Okay," Joylyn Bucher said, seeing that her husband had forgiven her, and obediently went to stand aside.
"Well done, uncle," Bidegla said to Niko Haimes after his aunt left, giving him a thumbs-up.
"Haha, if I hadn't mentioned divorce, I wouldn't have known she cared so much about me. Looks like I won't have to suffer anymore in the future," Niko Haimes chuckled softly, seeming in good spirits.
He had truly turned disaster into fortune. If Joylyn Bucher ever mistreated him in the future, he could simply threaten her with divorce, and she would surely comply.
As the two of them whispered to each other, the lights in the operating room suddenly went out, and several tired-looking doctors in white coats walked out.
"Doctor, how are my parents doing now?" Bidegla immediately approached the doctors and asked.
"Haha, the patients' lives have been saved, but it will take some time for them to regain consciousness. They should wake up in a few hours. We will transfer them to a ward shortly, and then you can see them," one of the doctors said, with a relieved expression.
They had been brought in almost at the brink of death, but thankfully they had been saved just in time. If they had arrived a few minutes later, they might have been beyond saving.
"Thank you," Bidegla said, taking out his wallet and giving each doctor nearly a thousand yuan, causing a faint smile to appear on their weary faces.
"It's just our duty, we did our best," one of the doctors said, quietly accepting the money from Bidegla without making a fuss.
Usually, family members of patients only gave them a few hundred yuan as a token of gratitude, so the nearly thousand yuan from Bidegla was a substantial income for them.
"Alright, you wait here to transfer to the ward, we'll leave first."
"Take care," Bidegla said with a smile.
It was several minutes later when they were finally transferred to the ward. As Bidegla looked at his parents in the intensive care unit, he felt a surge of murderous intent filling his heart.
As the saying goes, if you have an enemy, you must seek revenge. Bidegla's parents had almost lost their lives, and if he were to spare the culprit, he wouldn't be Bidegla.
"Bidegla, your parents are fine now. Let's go outside for a while," Niko Haimes said, patting Bidegla's shoulder and leading him out of the ward.
"They are fine, but I have something to take care of," Bidegla said, suppressing his murderous intent.
In front of his uncle, he couldn't show too much of his frightening side, or his uncle might try to stop him for various reasons.
What he said was true. The current society is indeed a legal society, but justice under the law still needs to be sought. If the law cannot resolve the matter, Bidegla will have to resort to other means.
As for compensation, Bidegla had never even considered it. He had plenty of money. What he wanted to do now was make the person who had harmed his parents pay the price they deserved.
Blood debts must be repaid with blood.
"Now that your parents are still waking up, it will take some time. Let's talk outside the hospital." With these words, Niko Haimes took Bidegla's hand and then said to Joylyn Bucher, "You should go back first. I won't be going back tonight."
"You must be careful," Joylyn Bucher admonished, then drove home.
Now that her husband had changed his mind, Joylyn Bucher dared not disobey him.
Finally, Niko Haimes and Bidegla found a still open food stall and ordered some food. It was only then that Niko Haimes began to explain the reasons behind everything.
Stolen novel; please report.
Meanwhile, Bidegla quietly ate, knowing that Niko Haimes would tell him everything he wanted to know.
"The company that wants to redevelop the old city area is called Joyful Real Estate. I heard that their boss is a young man with some background. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to act so recklessly," Niko Haimes said, taking a sip of beer. "Bidegla, even though you have some power now, it's not beneficial to confront such a behemoth. We can find other ways to solve the problem." Niko Haimes said with concern, fearing that Bidegla would act impulsively.
"Uncle, where are the hoodlums who hurt my parents from? I mean, where do they usually hang out?" Bidegla asked calmly.
"I'm not too sure about those hoodlums, but I heard from your neighbors that they seem to be from your area. After they hurt your parents, they fled and the police haven't caught them yet."
"Okay, I understand. I won't act impulsively. Let's eat quickly, and then I'll go see my parents," Bidegla said, quickly starting to eat.
When they returned to the hospital, it was almost dawn. Bidegla had not slept all night, as he still had a lot of pent-up anger and couldn't possibly sleep.
In the hospital room, his parents were still unconscious, and they probably wouldn't wake up for a while. So, Bidegla didn't want to disturb them. He just gave the nurse taking care of them his phone number and told her to call him when his parents woke up.
"Uncle, you should go back and rest. I will handle this matter on my own," Bidegla said, looking at the crimson-faced Niko Haimes.
"Bidegla, what are you saying? I'm your uncle. With such a big incident, how can I possibly rest? When it gets a little brighter, I'll take you to the police station to inquire. After so long, I believe they must have some leads by now."
"Okay," Bidegla nodded. He didn't rush his uncle to leave because he probably didn't know as much about the situation as his uncle did. Having him there would be more convenient.
They spent about an hour at the hospital before heading to the eastern police station with Niko Haimes.
The geographical location of Qing County was very good, and with the opening of railways and highways, it brought vitality to this small county town. In recent years, the county town had developed rapidly, with high-rise buildings springing up, making it seem like a small city. But Bidegla had no control over this city's development, and now these ignorant people had hurt his parents, so he couldn't just let it go.
"Officer, we would like to know the progress of the case I reported yesterday. Is there any problem?" Niko Haimes asked a police officer after arriving at the eastern police station.
"What case?" The police officer glanced at Bidegla and Niko Haimes, and said nonchalantly.
"Yesterday's deliberate injury case on Hucopper Street, I already reported it last night. You said to come today for the results," Niko Haimes said, smiling.
"Oh, you're talking about that. Our captain is in charge of that case. He hasn't come to work yet. You'll have to wait here for now," the policeman said, turning to leave.
Before he could leave, Bidegla grabbed him, asking, "When will he be here?"
"Who are you? Let go of me, or I'll charge you with assault," the policeman threatened, his expression turning sour.
"Is this the attitude of public servants towards us?" Bidegla coldly asked, looking at the policeman.
"What do you want then?"
"I don't want anything. I just want to know when your captain will come to work. After all, my family is lying in the hospital. We need some answers, don't we? I warn you, my parents are in critical condition. If anything irreparable happens because of you, don't blame me for taking you to court," Bidegla said.
"Our captain will probably come to work in about an hour. Let go of me," the young policeman said, his face turning slightly purple.
His hand felt like it was going to break from Bidegla's grip. If he didn't speak up, he might lose the use of his hand.
"Thank you for your cooperation," Bidegla smiled and let go of the policeman's hand, looking harmless.
"You b*stard," the policeman cursed, wishing he could detain Bidegla. Normally, it's the people who assist the police in investigations, but now it seems like I'm the one cooperating with you. Who do you think you are?
"Let's wait for a while," Niko Haimes said after the policeman walked away, then pulled Bidegla to sit on a nearby bench.
It was still early, and it was normal for someone not to come to work. After all, the police are also human and need rest, right?
"Let's wait," Bidegla said, sitting down with Niko Haimes. However, at that moment, Bidegla's gaze suddenly fixed on the second floor of the police station.
The policeman who had just left had walked into a room on the second floor, wearing a respectful smile.
"Captain, the family of the person has come, asking for the results," the policeman said respectfully, pushing open the door to the captain's office.
The captain had actually been at the police station for a while, but he didn't want to see Bidegla and his companions at all. From start to finish, he hadn't reviewed this case.
It wasn't that he was negligent, but because the suspect had strong connections. As a small captain, he couldn't afford to offend the son of the county party secretary. Would he dare to investigate?
And just half an hour before Bidegla and the others arrived, someone had given him a hundred thousand yuan, asking him not to investigate the case. Otherwise, he would have to face the consequences.
Afraid of the other party's influence and having received their bribe, the captain had already given orders. If the suspect's family came, he would say he wasn't there. As long as he kept pushing them away, the matter would have nothing to do with him.
Even if the family found another policeman, they probably wouldn't get any answers.
A normal family trying to confront someone with a strong background, he could already see the consequences clearly. That's how society works, officials protect each other. Even if other officials knew about this, they would probably turn a blind eye. After all, who would dare to provoke the county party secretary?
"Did you tell them I'm not here?" the captain asked, sounding very relaxed.
"I have already informed them, but it seems that one of the newcomers is a practitioner, incredibly strong. My hand is almost crippled." With that, the policeman rolled up his sleeve, revealing his already swollen arm.
