Too Bad I Take Things Seriously-Chapter 558 - 222: Qin Mu Appears, A Confused Hospital!_3

Chapter 558: Chapter 222: Qin Mu Appears, A Confused Hospital!_3

He found a relevant legal provision from the legal texts he remembered with his "photographic memory."

The filing and acceptance of the crime of abandonment required serious circumstances.

Judicial interpretations related to serious circumstances also detailed several such situations. For example, cases where the victim suffered serious injury, illness, or death due to abandonment. Or instances where the victim was left with no means of livelihood, became destitute, and was forced to beg on the streets. It also covered situations where the victim was driven to suicide. Furthermore, if the perpetrator, despite repeated admonitions, refused to change their behavior, thereby placing the victim in a perilous situation, this was considered serious. Finally, particularly heinous means of abandonment, such as beating or abusing the victim during the act, also qualified.

Currently, Feng Cuihua’s life wasn’t so tragic.

Merely relying on testimonies from neighbors and financial transaction records was not enough to prove that the other party had committed abandonment.

It looks like a trip to the hospital is needed, Qin Mu thought. He sought out Feng Cuihua again.

He remembered Feng Cuihua saying she had suffered a serious illness six months prior.

But not a single family member had signed for her.

Consequently, she missed the optimal treatment window, leading to mobility issues in her lower body and a slight disability.

In her daily life, her four sons also subjected her to varying degrees of physical and verbal abuse, drove her out, and forbade her from living in their rooms.

If I can just gather this evidence... the court should be able to accept the case, he mused.

Afterward, he called Feng Cuihua and the ever-present Zhang Qingyuan to join him.

The group went to the hospital where Feng Cuihua had been treated, intending to retrieve her medical records.

However, as they approached the hospital’s entrance, they saw a ’Closed’ notice posted on the door.

"How... what do we do now? How could a perfectly good hospital just shut down? Does this mean we can’t sue?" Feng Cuihua said with a bitter smile, worry creeping into her voice.

She wasn’t particularly keen on suing her own sons.

But their actions... had truly chilled her to the bone.

As Qin Mu had said, she simply wanted justice or, in other words, for them to realize their errors and mend their ways.

But now... it seemed they were in trouble.

The most crucial evidence was unattainable.

"This is all Xiao Qin’s fault," Zhang Qingyuan said, rolling his eyes and unable to resist commenting. "These days, hospitals in Jin City are being temporarily reorganized one after another."

The hospital where Feng Cuihua had sought treatment... had also been caught up in the storm, unable to escape its effects.

Qin Mu: "..."

He stared blankly at the hospital before him, somewhat speechless.

The shockwave I’ve triggered in the industry this time... is indeed a bit too strong. Even this hospital has temporarily closed down, he thought.

He glanced at the hospital’s main entrance and noticed a smaller gate beside it. "There’s a small gate over there," he suggested. "Let’s go in and take a look."

This small gate... wasn’t closed and seemed to be an employee entrance.

A few security guards were stationed near it.

However, as he approached, the guards’ expressions changed dramatically.

"Oh no! It’s Qin Mu!" one of them exclaimed.

He had barely registered the cry of alarm when the guards fled through the small gate, slamming it shut behind them.

Even from a distance, he could hear the fear in their voices.

Am I really that frightening? Qin Mu touched his nose in embarrassment, somewhat at a loss for words.

He had just wanted to ask about the situation.

But these guards... had recognized him instantly and fled at the mere sight of him.

With his "photographic memory," he was sure he didn’t know these guards.

But these guards... could accurately state his name and recognize him at a glance.

Something feels off, he thought.

"Cough cough, Xiao Qin, maybe... you should hide nearby while we go ask about the situation," Zhang Qingyuan suggested, glancing at Qin Mu, the corner of his mouth twitching.

The impact of Qin Mu’s presence... is just too great, Zhang Qingyuan thought. As long as Qin Mu is around, we definitely won’t get anything. We won’t even be able to get through the door.

"What does this have to do with me?" Qin Mu muttered, his expression darkening. Nevertheless, he followed Zhang Qingyuan’s advice and moved away from the small gate.

Waiting at a distance, he watched as Zhang Qingyuan, leading a visibly anxious Feng Cuihua, approached the small gate and began to knock.

Sure enough, before long, the small gate opened. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

The previously fleeing security guards poked their heads out one after another.

Looking around and not seeing him, they actually began to converse patiently with Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua.

Then, these security guards actually invited Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua in through the small gate.

Watching this scene from afar, Qin Mu was utterly bewildered.

Why on earth... did these people run away before I even got close?

「Half an hour later.」

Outside the hospital, Zhang Qingyuan emerged with Feng Cuihua.

In their hands, they carried medical and hospitalization records.

The contents... detailed Feng Cuihua’s previous fall and her treatment at the hospital.

During that treatment, because Feng Cuihua was an elderly, critically ill patient and no family member had provided a signature, the hospital hadn’t dared to proceed with surgery.

Ultimately, this led to a delay in her treatment, resulting in a series of neurological sequelae.

Although she could still walk, she developed numerous problems with her legs, feet, and hands.

A person who once enjoyed robust health... now suffered from a deteriorating physical condition.

"How... did you manage to get these records?" asked Qin Mu as he watched the two walk towards him.

They had spent less than half an hour in total, from entering to leaving.

That efficiency... was simply too fast, Qin Mu thought.

After all, navigating hospital procedures these days, not to mention the queues, involved a mountain of bureaucracy.
