1 Hit & Run Victim

The sound of an ambulance arriving could be heard from a distance the person from the car walked out and one could see clearly that it was a woman. She had some air about her indicating she worked in some big firm in the city, across the bridge.

Looking at the ambulance in the distance she walked out of the car, and some irritation could be seen on her face. She knew that leaving in this situation might just end up causing trouble in the long run and thus stayed.

This woman was dressed in a black suit and her driver was also the same. She was not worried about this causing her trouble as she had a camera at the front of her car. This is the latest invention in motor vehicles, thus only those that could afford new cars have it.

It is no longer a requirement yet to have cameras installed in the front of cars, but those with something to lose still go ahead and do it.

The ambulance stopped some distance before the body that was lying on the edge of the road, and after confirming that the person was not dead, the procedures were necessarily initiated.

Since it was raining something like a tent was set up on top of Zimo.

The team checked to make sure that Zimo was not dead, it was through the pulse. Since they managed to establish that he was alive, they went further to start observing the wounds visible on the body. The wounds that were visible were dealt with in the instant.

After being put on the stretcher the ambulance staff set off but they still looked at the woman in the distance and she could not help but frown. Looking at the cold and indifferent eyes, the nurses lost the courage to even say what they wanted. But the police seemed more courageous than her as the moment the ambulance left they arrived and after some questioning and recording the situation on the site, let her go along.

The truth, however, was not that they were nice to just let her go, it seemed that someone made a call to the officers in charge of the scene, and seeing how they put on smiles as they sent the woman away it could be seen that they were scolded.

In the world regardless of the place, it seemed that those with enough resources had the capability to gain privileges regardless of the situation they were in. The woman managed to walk off without even providing information about herself. But the police could also tell that she was not the one that caused the accident since they saw the skid marks that even the rain could not erase.

But that was not all, considering the fact they had the ability to check some of the working street cameras, they would have the suspect in no time. In the same way, after the police got involved in this case, it seemed that some media stations also got wind of some hit-and-runs.

It would be okay to say that someone had informed them about the situation and the most likely suspect is the police and this is also a common situation. In every area, people only look after their interests but at this time the person involved in the hit-and-run seemed to panic when the situation was brought into the media.

....

Close to ten minutes after the police left, one could see some media coverage still happening and it also appeared on some national tv channels.

"In the heavy run, an incident of hit and run has been reported and the victim has been taken to the hospital... " The information continued being shared but the person who was watching this from some huge villa was shivering.

One could see an old man looking at his son, who was shaking from drug abuse, drunk driving, and even more than that he had committed a hit and run.

"Go! Collect all information about the situation. I you to reach some deal with the victim and let drop the charges but make sure they sign an NDA." As the old man spoke he picked up a golf club and started swinging.

"Boom!"

"Haa...! I was wrong! Father, please spare me! I will not do it again!" The only thing that could be heard from the room was begging and hitting.

The man that had just left was standing at the door and when the noise in the house died down he stopped guarding the door before making some calls. Obviously, he was good at this and the call seemed to have gone straight to the police station.

"Chief! About this hit and run, we hope that you can delay the investigation for a while." The man spoke but on the other end, there was silence for a while.

"Are you guys responsible for this one? You know the wolves are smelling prey right? Too much action will lead to a reaction that no one might be capable of withstanding, and if anything, this would turn into a huge problem. " The man on the other end seemed to be talking about this issue casually. But he seemed to be using some hidden words just to say it was dangerous for them to do anything to the victim or things would get worse.

....

In the city hospital, at the emergency medicine department, Zimo was like the many people lying on some bed in a hall filled with different patients that had also injuries from different accidents. At the same time, all of them had some similarities which were, the fact that they were all poor.

In this category, even the doctors that gave them attention did not seem that qualified rather it would be important to say there were in training. Thankfully Zimo did not seem to have suffered any serious injuries other than fractures on his legs and hands.

It took him close to four hours before he opened his eyes and the first thing he realized was the smell of disinfectants. This smell was very annoying to him and his eyes could see blue all around. This was a public ward, but in truth, it was just a hall that seemed to cater to the needs of those that did not pay for high-quality care. Mostly such people in the hospitals are usually referred to as VIPs and at this moment that was not a category he could match. Even in his previous life when he reached a high point, he did not exploit his medical insurance since he was very busy for this.

When sound could register to him, he heard someone had been calling out to him but to his surprise, it was not a doctor or nurse rather he had his whole body bandaged up unlike him had at least his head and chest not touched only small stitches were made.
