Chapter 74 Hikigaya Hachiman (8)

"Alas." Su Yang sighed deeply. "After listening to Mr. Hiratsuka's brief introduction, I only know that on the day of the first-year opening ceremony, the car you were riding in had a traffic accident, causing Hikigaya Hachiman to be hospitalized. She didn't tell me the other details. Can you tell me the details of the situation at that time?"

Su Yang was not unaware of the specific circumstances of the traffic accident. After all, he was a participant in the accident, and even the ultimate cause of the accident. However, he still had to figure out what the accident looked like in the eyes of Yukinoshita Yukino.

Hearing this, Yukinoshita Yukino had a dazed look on her face and was silent.

For some reason, in Yukinoshita Yukino's heart, what happened that day seemed like a nightmare. It was obviously just an accident that was not tragic, but she didn't want to recall it from the bottom of her heart.

"I only remember that when the accident happened, I was a little tired after getting up early because I had been studying all night, so I took a nap in the car. I don't know how long it had been, but the driver suddenly braked. Then I seemed to hear a crash, as if my car had hit something hard. Then, there was another crash, and then, I was awakened by the impact, and heard a noisy shouting from outside the car."

"When I woke up from my daze and got out of the car, I saw my car crashed into the guardrail on the side of the road. A boy was hit by a Toyota car driving in the opposite direction and fell into a coma."

"And at the front of my car, there was a girl wearing a pink sweatshirt and a bun-like hairstyle, looking towards the school gate. In her arms, she was holding a brown dachshund."

"Then, my family's driver and the driver of the Toyota quickly took the boy who was hit by the car to the hospital."

"Finally, I learned what happened from the traffic police who were handling the traffic accident at the scene."

"The pink-haired girl with the bun is Yuigahama Yui, and she's a freshman at Sobu High School like me. Her father had to go to work, and her mother went to the nearby market to buy food for the day and forgot to walk the dog. Her home is close to the school, so she decided to walk the dog first and then go to school."

"However, just as my car was passing by, Yuigahama Yui's dachshund broke free from its leash and ran towards a boy across the street. The boy rescued the dachshund and left."

"Then, my driver turned left to avoid the boy who was saving the dog and hit the railing. The Toyota car driving in the opposite direction also turned left to avoid my car, and then hit Hikigaya Hachiman who was riding a bicycle behind my car. This is what happened."

Yukinoshita Yukino's tone was calm at this time, but Su Yang could still hear the uneasiness and self-blame in it.

"After my family's driver and the driver of the Toyota took Hikigaya Hachiman to the hospital, my sister and mother also rushed to the hospital immediately, and they were the ones who handled everything that happened afterwards."

"After I came back from school, I talked to them and learned that Hikigaya Hachiman had a broken leg and some soft tissue contusion, but other than that, he was fine."

"My parents also came to apologize and made humanitarian compensation according to the requirements of the traffic accident acknowledgment letter, and also obtained the other party's family's forgiveness."

"Your parents?" Su Yang lowered his head and thought for a moment, "You've never been there?"

"Yeah." Yukinoshita Yukino responded softly.

"Why not go?" Su Yang asked.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino did not answer, and Su Yang understood what she meant when he saw her uneasy and self-blaming look.

"Let me ask you, how was your driver's responsibility determined in the traffic police's determination of responsibility in this accident?"

"We are not responsible. The Toyota owner is responsible for 15% and Yuigahama Yui is responsible for 85%."

"Okay, I understand the situation. On the day of the opening ceremony, you had a traffic accident on the way to school. Although you were not responsible at all, you felt guilty and ashamed when you saw someone was hospitalized because of it, right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked up at Su Yang, there was anxiety in her eyes, like a little pet waiting for punishment from its owner after making a mistake.

"First of all, let me state my own opinion. First, from an objective point of view, you did nothing wrong, and your family, which should have had no responsibility at all, also provided humanitarian compensation to Hikigaya Hachiman, which can be said to be the utmost kindness and righteousness. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that you did too much."

Su Yang expressed his opinion.

"So, I was too pretentious in this matter?" Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes turned cold.

"I didn't say that." Su Yang shrugged. "I just think that you don't need to blame yourself. After all, I really can't think of why you blame yourself in this matter. Of course, there is nothing wrong with knowing how to blame yourself. Being able to blame yourself proves that you are still kind."

Yukinoshita Yukino was a little confused.

"You know, we humans are very complex creatures, or rather, human nature is very complex. Regardless of the moral saints, of course, there is an old saying in the neighboring Dragon Country that even saints can make mistakes. People who have made mistakes will try their best to shirk responsibility, while people who have not made mistakes sometimes tend to blame themselves because of the pain in their hearts."

"Take this incident for example. No matter how you calculate the responsibility, it can't be put on you. After all, if you really want to count, the primary responsibility for this incident lies with Yuigahama Yui, and the second is the boy who saved the dog. These two people should at least bear all the responsibility."

"Why?" Yukinoshita Yukino was puzzled.

"First of all, the cause of the incident lies with the dachshund. It can even be said that if it weren't for the dachshund, this accident would not have happened. Of course, it's a bit far-fetched to blame a dog for everything, but after all, dogs are not humans and don't understand human traffic rules. Yuigahama Yui, as the owner of a dachshund, should have ensured that the leash was secure and reliable when walking the dog. At least, in this accident, the dachshund broke free from the leash, which was the cause of the accident."

"Ahem, next is the unknown boy who saved the dog. Of course, a life is indeed very precious, but no matter what time, you must first ensure your own life safety as a human being. At the same time, when saving a dog, you should pay attention to the surrounding dangers and not endanger the interests of others."
