"Who would be so wicked as to lose the manhole cover?"
"Sigh, what a tragedy. If his parents knew about this, they would cry themselves to death."
Li Rui was upset, but he was not in the mood to scold them. He tried to perform chest compressions on the boy again.
The good-natured young man whispered, "Brother, stop. It's useless. His body is cold …"
Li Rui had expected this to be the worst outcome, but he could not help but tear up when he heard that. He regretted it in his heart, "If I had jumped into the well immediately, I might have been able to save him!"
Due to the heavy rain, the ambulance did not arrive quickly. It took a full 15 minutes for an ambulance to arrive with a sharp siren. The emergency doctor got out of the car and checked the boy's pupils and pulse. He shook his head immediately.
Some kind-hearted bystanders called the police, and the local police station quickly sent police officers over. Once they saw that the boy was dead, they could not do anything else. They could only inform the parents. Through the class information recorded in the boy's schoolbag, they contacted the school and asked for the parents' contact information. They then called the parents to explain the situation.
During this process, Li Rui did not leave. As the witness and rescuer of the boy, he felt obligated to stay and explain the situation to the police and the parents.
After waiting for more than 20 minutes, the parents of the boy who fell into the water drove a black Passat to the scene. After the boy's mother got out of the car, she rushed into the crowd. When she saw her son lying motionless on the pavement, she burst into tears and rushed over to hug him.
The boy's father quickly came over and knelt down to hug the mother and son, crying non-stop.
The emergency doctor and the police officers at the scene comforted him. Li Rui took the opportunity to tell the story of how the boy fell into the water and how he saved him. In the end, he sincerely said, "If only I had jumped into the well to save him earlier!"
He said those words out of regret, but in fact, he had already done his best. If he had really jumped into the well as soon as he arrived at the scene, he would have been stuck in the well, which was about 1.7 meters deep and 1.9 meters deep. He would not have been able to climb out. Just the continuous rainwater from the well would have been enough to make him reincarnate. Although saving people was more important, he had to ensure his own safety first. Only when he was alive could he save people. If he died in the well first, how could he save people?
Reality proved that he was too honest, or rather, he was a little stupid at this moment. He shouldn't have said those words. As soon as he said those words, the teenager's mother jumped up and grabbed his arm, yelling, "Why didn't you go down earlier to save my son? Why didn't you save him earlier? It's you, it's you killed my son! "
What a reversal!
Li Rui was dumbfounded. The surrounding doctors, nurses, police officers, and passers-by were also dumbfounded. Well, was this child's mother born with a "blackmail" personality? Or was it because of her child's sudden death that her mind was muddled? How could she say that? Oh, she did not question the road administration or the people who took away the well cover, but blamed the benefactor who saved her son from the well. What was the reason for this? Even if you want to be a jerk, you shouldn't do this, right? This was simply a f * cking unreasonable bastard!
Li Rui quickly came back to his senses and immediately defended himself, "I wanted to go down the well to save him as soon as possible, but I had to figure out the situation of the well first, right? What if the well was too deep and I couldn't climb out after jumping in? What if your son sank to the bottom of the well and I jumped in and stepped on him? I had to figure out the situation of the well first. You can't blame me for this … "
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault. My son could have been saved, but you were too slow and delayed it. Let me tell you, you have something to do with my son's death. You have to take responsibility! "
The woman wiped her snot and tears on her face. She looked disheveled, but her mouth was like a knife, ruthlessly stabbing at the hearts of everyone, including Li Rui.
The police officer could not stand it any longer and interrupted, "Ma 'am, it's not right for you to say that. The big brother saved your son out of kindness, and that's already very good. It's rare for him to be a Samaritan, sacrificing himself to save others. Although he didn't save your son, you can't blame him. He did the best he could. It's fine if you don't thank him, but why are you blaming him?"
The emergency doctor said, "That's right. If it weren't for this young man, your son would still be stuck in the sewer pipe. He might even have been washed into a sewage pit a few kilometers away. You wouldn't have been able to save him. You …"
The boy's father suddenly said, "Doctor, how can you say that? What do you mean? Are you cursing my son to die without a complete corpse? "As he spoke, he stood up and raised his hand to push the doctor.
The doctor was pushed back two steps, and fortunately, he did not hit the nurse behind him. He was shocked and angry, but seeing that the other party was as strong as an ox and had a fierce expression, he did not dare to fight back. He snorted and said, "Who cursed your son? I'm just telling the truth. Don't get physical. I'm telling you, there are police here! "
The police officer walked over and stood between the two. He pointed at the boy's father and said, "What's wrong with you? Why are you hitting people? Why are the two of you so unreasonable? "
The boy's father saw that the police officer was blocking him, so he stopped targeting the doctor. He turned around and pointed at Li Rui and said, "Let me tell you, this is a separate matter. You saved my son, and I thank you. However, I suspect that you didn't handle the matter properly when you saved my son, and indirectly caused my son to drown. You have to bear some responsibility too!"
Li Rui was furious when he heard that. He saw that the man was about 45 or 46 years old. He was not very tall, about 1.75 meters, but he was very strong. He looked like a human-shaped iron tower. He had a crew cut and was wearing a shirt and trousers. He seemed to be a public official. Li Rui pondered over the tone of his words. He seemed to have done some research on the law or responsibility. Otherwise, he would not have said those words that seemed fair but were actually cunning. He sneered and said, "I didn't handle the matter properly? How did I handle the matter improperly? "
The man looked around at everyone and said to Li Rui, "Let's be reasonable. We'll explain everything clearly one by one. Don't say that I'm falsely accusing a good person. Yes, you did save my son, and I should thank you. However, let's put this aside first. Let's start from the beginning. My son fell into the water. If you didn't care after you saw him and just walked past him, then even if my son drowned, it would have nothing to do with you. He could only blame himself for being careless. However, you didn't ignore him and ran over to save him. Then, you had sex with my son. You can't escape from this matter.
Then, you just said it yourself, and everyone heard it clearly. You regret not saving my son earlier. This is actually your self-blame for the delay in the rescue process. When you saved my son, you wasted a lot of time. Do you dare to deny it? Let's not talk about this first. Let's talk about the most important thing.
Do you know what I'm suspecting now? When my son first fell into the well and was not washed into the pipe, he could have swum up because he knew how to swim. However, due to your mistakes, such as kicking him into the pipe after you entered the water — of course, you didn't do it intentionally. I never doubted your good intentions to save him. Another example is that after you entered the water, you caused the water pressure in the well to change and pushed him into the pipe … In short, because of your appearance, there were too many possibilities. Do you still dare to say that you have nothing to do with my son's death? "
This so-called reason immediately triggered a heated discussion among the onlookers.
"He's really blackmailing whoever he catches!"
"Isn't that so? The young man was kind enough to save someone, but he was blamed. Is there any justice in this world?"
"Actually, what he said does make some sense."
"I don't agree with his other words, but I think one of his words makes sense. That is, since this young man is involved, then he can't escape. Who asked him to be a busybody?"
"Hey, this pair of husband and wife are really like 'if you're not a family, you won't enter the same house'. They're competing in being unreasonable!"
Li Rui was already so angry that he wanted to beat the other party up. He said coldly, "I don't know too much about the law, but I know one. Whoever makes the claim has to provide evidence. Or rather, whoever doubts it has to provide evidence! If you suspect that I made a mistake and caused your son's death, then it's fine. You can show me the evidence. I'll be convinced if you show it. But if you don't have any evidence and talk nonsense and falsely accuse a good person, then don't blame me for being rude to you! "
After he finished speaking, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "There's still sand in my hair and water in my shoes. From the time I pulled your son out to the time I gave him chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, I didn't stop for a moment. I'm as tired as a dead dog. It's fine if you two don't thank me, but you want to falsely accuse me of being responsible. What, you want to extort money from me? Let me tell you, you chose the wrong person! "
The man was not moved by his words at all. He said with a malicious expression, "There's no camera in the well, so where am I going to find evidence? Besides, my son is already dead. You have the final say in everything. Who knows if it's true or not? But don't think that I can't do anything to you because I don't have evidence. I'm from the city's central court. I know many famous lawyers in the city. I can find any one of them and they can give you a list of responsibilities. Do you believe me? "
Li Rui sneered and said, "From the city's central court? No wonder you know a little about the law. No wonder you can come up with so many fallacious arguments. "
The man saw that after hearing that he was from the city's central court, he wasn't nervous at all and even dared to mock him. He was a little surprised and asked, "Which department are you from? You dare to mock and insult our city's central court? Do you know what you're doing? You're insulting and slandering the country's judicial authority … "
