"Damn it! It's going to die, it's going to die!"

The driver hit the brakes and jumped out of the car.He lay on the ground and looked under the car. Old Xu was lying motionless on the ground.

"Brother, wake up, it's over."

The driver took out his mobile phone and called the police and ambulance.

Because he was worried that he would cause a second injury to Old Xu, he neither dared to drive, nor dared to get under the car to touch Old Xu.

After less than 3 minutes, the police and ambulance finally arrived, and they took Lao Xu to the hospital together.

In the emergency room, all kinds of life-support equipment were placed on Lao Xu's body. Because Lao Xu's relatives and friends never came, the driver directly paid for the medical expenses in advance.

The doctor went to the policeman and the driver to share about Lao Xu's injury.

"The injured person's condition is very critical now, why don't you call his parents quickly?"

"No way?"

"Yes, his life is in danger at any time now, and we have tried our best to rescue him. He has underlying diseases, and the impact part unfortunately caused internal organs to rupture, and the internal bleeding is serious now. Comrade police, you can contact now Are there any family members of the injured?"

The driver shut his mouth and stood by the corridor.The police came out and communicated with the doctor.

"The injured man has no wife or children, and his parents are out of town. Even if he takes a plane, he will have to arrive tomorrow."

"Oh……"

"Can you keep him going until tomorrow?"

"I can't promise."

Half an hour later, Da Mao came to the hospital and saw Lao Xu unconscious in the emergency room.

Old Xu wore a mask on his face, and blood kept flowing from his mouth and nose. The doctor quickly pulled up the curtain when he saw this, and rescued Old Xu again.

The blood transfusion bottles were changed one after another, but the bleeding still couldn't be stopped.

Da Mao stood beside the hospital bed at a loss as if his soul had been drawn out.

Two in the morning.

When Lao Xu's father came to the hospital, he saw Lao Xu in the ward as soon as he looked up.

"son?"

The old father walked to the hospital bed tremblingly. He was thin and gray-haired, and the expression on his face did not change.

Da Mao stood behind Lao Xu's father, and said in a low voice, "Old man..."

"what?"

The old father turned his head, his eyes were gray, as if covered by a layer of fog.

"I am a friend of your son."

"Oh, Hello."

"You are sad." Da Mao lowered his head, "Old Xu left an hour ago."

"Oh, what a pity, I almost got to see you." The old father grinned, the wrinkles on his face squeezed together, "Thank you for your hard work tonight."

"Feel sorry……"

"There is nothing to be sorry for, life and death are life and death."

The old father's expression returned to calm, he tremblingly took out the handkerchief in his bag, and helped his son wipe off the blood on his face.

In order to install a breathing tube for his son, the doctor bent his son's teeth, and the old father patiently put the teeth back bit by bit.

The old father helped his son take off his dirty clothes.Wipe his son's skin with a towel little by little, and then help his son change into clean clothes with one hand and one foot.

With a sore nose, the big hair moved to the old father's side.

"Grandpa, let me help you."

"No need, no need, it's too dirty." The old father looked at Da Mao calmly, "Let me do it, I can only do so little."

beep beep-

In the rescue room, except for the screeching sound of the equipment, no one dared to disturb the father and son.

The old father cleaned his son and touched his son's face with a smile.

"I'm sorry, son, your old lady has a bad heart and can't get on the plane, so I have to come over to see you off. After you grow up, I didn't let me take a bath for you. I didn't expect that only now can I wipe it for you. body."

Da Mao took a deep breath and walked to the old father.

"Old man, I have already contacted the funeral home for you."

"Oh, thank you very much." The old man nodded, "How much will it cost?"

"Let's not talk about these things. Old Xu died in a traffic accident. I will take you to the traffic control office tomorrow to deal with the compensation. However, because Old Xu was hit by a car when he ran a red light, so..."

"So it's all my son's fault, isn't it?"

"It's too early to talk about it now." Da Mao shook his head, "Go and rest for a while, I will take care of Lao Xu's funeral for you."

"I know I know."

Da Mao took the old man to the hospital to sign, and then sent Lao Xu's body to the morgue.He sorted out Lao Xu's belongings outside the ward.

"Camel Xiangzi" was dirty, which made Da Mao feel distressed. He wiped the cover with his sleeve, but he couldn't wipe off the oil at all.

Da Mao took out his phone again.

There are a total of four or five missed calls on the mobile phone, and it shows that all of them are calls from the site supervisor.He opened the food delivery app, and the background showed that Lao Xu had been complained about not delivering the food in time, and 200 yuan was deducted.

"Fuck you!"

Da Mao raised the phone and smashed it to the ground.

……

The next day, Da Mao and the old man came to the Traffic Management Office for mediation.

As Da Mao expected, Lao Xu's running the red light was the whole cause of the accident.Therefore, Lao Xu took full responsibility for the accident.

When the driver heard that Lao Xu died in the end because the rescue was ineffective, he immediately felt pity.

"This kind of result happened, and none of us want to see it. Although according to the traffic regulations, I am not responsible for you running a red light, but after all, I am willing to take secondary responsibility. I bought insurance for my car and can compensate you Part of the death compensation, I am really sorry."

After some coordination, the traffic police finally determined that the driver was the second responsibility, and Lao Xu was the main responsibility.

The police couldn't bear to see the old man's sick look.

Although the driver voluntarily assumed part of the responsibility, Lao Xu's family was indeed in difficulty, and the compensation of 10 yuan was not enough to make up for the loss of a family's pillar.

"Grandpa, do you know which unit your son is in?" The policeman looked at the old man and asked, "I think he seems to be wearing the uniform of a delivery man. Can you ask the company to pay for work-related injuries?"

"How about workers' compensation?"

The old man was ignorant.

Da Mao sighed softly, patted the old man on the shoulder and said, "It's useless, neither our delivery staff nor the platform has a labor contract, and they didn't provide us with insurance at all."

"That means... you can't pay?"

"Theoretically, it can be compensated." The policeman said, "Even if the company does not provide you with insurance, as long as you can prove that you are working for the company, you can still ask the company to pay you compensation for work-related injuries. You can try it."

"Thank you, Comrade Police."

Da Mao nodded, and pulled the old man away.

Putting Da Mao's arm on his arm, the old man asked tremblingly: "Is that work-related compensation really okay? 10 yuan...it's really not enough...our family is all supported by my son, and the family still owes us money." With foreign debts, what should I do if my savings are exhausted?"

"Don't worry, I'll think about it and find a way."

Da Mao sighed, his eyes flickering.
