Red Moscow

Chapter 2617

Shortly after Yakov left, Asya's parents arrived.

As soon as she saw Sokov, Nina grabbed Sokov's arm and asked emotionally: "Misha, please tell me quickly, what happened, how did Asya get into a car accident? ? You know, when she left the instrument factory in the car, everything was fine, so why did something suddenly happen? "

"Nina, don't worry, sit down and rest first." Sokov now no longer calls Nina's mother, but calls her by her first name: "I'll tell you slowly what's going on."

After the two old men sat down, Sokov told them the story of Asiya's car accident. Of course, the version he told was provided by the traffic police lieutenant Sabina, and did not describe the clues he and Yakov discovered during their private investigation.

"My poor child." Although Nina's eyes were swollen from crying before she came here, when she heard about her daughter's condition, she couldn't help but cry again: "I want to be a mother. I didn't expect it. This **** car accident. The child is gone, and the adults can’t survive.”

"Nina, stop crying." But at this time, Bakanidze, who was sitting next to her, said unexpectedly: "The child is gone and my daughter has just been out of danger. Even if you cry your eyes out, you will not change." Not the established facts.”

Nina stopped crying, turned to look at Sokov and asked: "Misha, will you take us to the hospital to see Asiya?"

"Of course." Sokov glanced at the car keys on the table and then said, "I can take you to the hospital at any time."

"Misha, you must be very tired after spending the whole night with Asiya in the hospital." Bakanidze said empathetically: "Why don't you take a rest first and wait until after three o'clock in the afternoon before sending us to the hospital?" Late."

Sokov thought that it was visitation time right now, and if he rushed there directly, he would be able to visit the ward. If he lay down to rest, he might not be able to get up at three o'clock, so he stood up and picked up the car keys on the table: "Let's go now. I can't sleep at all unless I see Asiya wake up."

In fact, both Nina and Bakanidze couldn't wait to see Asya right away, but they were worried that their son-in-law's body wouldn't be able to bear it, so they suggested letting him rest for a few hours before sending them to the hospital. Seeing that he was determined to go to the hospital, he stopped talking, got up and walked out of the room.

Coming out of the building, Sokov saw a black car parked on the roadside in front of him, which was Yakov's car. He walked over, opened the door, and asked Bakanidze and Nina to get in the car.

Bakanidze came to the car, looked at it carefully, and asked in surprise: "Misha, I remember that this was not the car you drove two days ago?"

"Yes, this is indeed not my car. It was lent to me by my friend Yasha." Sokov explained to the two elderly people: "Yesterday I learned about Asiya's car accident and immediately drove to the hospital. , but due to being too excited, I made some mistakes, which resulted in the vehicle hitting the big tree on the side of the road. Well, it was that tree, and the lampshade fragments under the tree fell from my car. "

When the two saw this, they couldn't help being surprised, and then asked with concern: "Misha, you are not injured, are you?"

"No, I was not injured." Sokov shook his head and said, "After I crashed, I immediately called my friend and asked him to drive to pick me up and take me to the hospital."

After arriving at the hospital, Sokov came to Asiya's ward with a familiar route.

The nurse caring for Asiya at this moment has been replaced. Seeing Sokov enter the door, she quickly stood up and greeted: "Comrade General, you are here!"

"Yes, I'm here." Sokov asked tentatively: "Is my wife awake?"

"No, Comrade General, she hasn't woken up yet." Just as the nurse said this, she suddenly shouted to Nina: "Comrade Women, the patient hasn't woken up yet, please don't disturb her casually."

When Sokov saw it, it turned out that it was Nina who felt sorry for her daughter. She rushed to the bedside, grabbed one of Asya's hands, and silently wiped away her tears.

"It's okay, Comrade Nurse." Sokov quickly explained to the nurse: "This is my mother-in-law. When she saw my wife in this condition, she felt uncomfortable and some gaffes were inevitable."

When the nurse heard what Sokov said, she immediately became silent. After all, that person was the mother of the injured person. If she was nosy and was complained by Sokov, she would definitely be criticized by the dean, and she might even be sent to a lower level. to work at the township health center.

When Nina grabbed her daughter's hand and was filled with grief, Sokov felt someone touch his shoulder. He turned around and saw that it was Bakanidze. He mouthed to himself: "Go outside and talk."

Sokov knew in his heart that his father-in-law was also a smart man. He must have seen something wrong and wanted to talk to him alone, so he nodded and followed him out of the ward.

The two came to a corner. Sokov took out the cigarette case from his pocket and handed it to Bakanidze: "Here's one!"

Bakanidze took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, held it in his mouth, but did not light it immediately. Instead, he looked out the window and seemed to be talking to himself: "Don't you think that this car accident happened so badly?" Is it strange?"

Although Sokov knew that there was a conspiracy behind this car accident, he did not dare to tell Bakanidze casually, lest he accidentally implicated the other party and put him in danger, so he deliberately pretended to be confused. He asked rhetorically: "A car accident is a car accident. The traffic police department has conducted an on-site investigation. This is the conclusion they have reached. What else is wrong?"

"Even with the investigation results of the traffic police department, I still feel that this car accident is very problematic." Bakanidze thought that Sokov did not see the problem, and reminded him specifically: "Don't forget, now It’s the New Year period. I don’t deny that the driver involved in the accident is suspected of drunk driving, but there are not many cars on the road during the New Year period. Even if you are walking in a zigzag on the road, it is not easy to cause an accident.”

Seeing that Bakanidze's speculation coincided with his own thoughts, Sokov still pretended to be indifferent: "Maybe the driver didn't pay attention to traffic safety when driving because there were few cars on the road. This led to the accident.”

"Where is the driver who caused the accident?" Bakanidze suddenly said: "Can you arrange for me to see him?"

Sokov was startled by Bakanidze's suggestion, thinking that the driver responsible for the accident had frozen to death. Even if you saw him, could you still get any valuable information out of the dead man's mouth? If you can really do this, I'm afraid others will respectfully call you: "Psychic Master!"

"Sorry, I may not be able to see you." Sokov did not tell the fact that the driver had been frozen to death for no apparent reason, but said euphemistically: "I heard from the traffic police comrades that the driver responsible for the accident has been handed over to their superiors. As for being transferred to I don’t know what area he went to.” After listening to Sokov’s words, Bakanidze couldn’t help but sigh softly. He saw a lot of things from Sokov's tone of voice and evasive eyes. He even guessed that maybe Sokov had known that there was something fishy about this car accident, but due to some special reasons, he could not continue. If you continue the investigation without letting yourself participate in the investigation, you may be worried that you will be in danger. Since that's the case, I shouldn't cause any trouble to my son-in-law.

Bakanidze hurriedly finished the cigarette in his hand, opened the window in front of him, threw the cigarette **** out, and then turned to Sokov and said: "Misha, let's go back to the ward."

After the two returned to the ward, Nina stood up and walked over, pleading to Sokov: "Misha, tell the person in charge of the hospital that I want to stay here with my daughter and ask them to agree to it. Ask for it.”

Sokov was about to refuse, saying that the hospital stipulated that the patient's family members could not accompany him to the bed. Unexpectedly, before he spoke, Bakanize whispered in his ear: "Misha, just agree to her request. Even if you let her go home, I'm afraid she won't be able to feel at ease."

"Okay." Sokov heard what Bakanidze said and couldn't refuse: "Then I'll go find the dean and see what he says."

Sokov arrived at the dean's office and found the dean who was working at his desk.

Seeing Sokov walking in from the outside, the dean couldn't help but be surprised, then stood up and asked: "Comrade General, has something happened to your wife?"

"No, Comrade Dean, nothing happened to my wife." Sokov quickly explained to the dean: "I came here with my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Now that my mother-in-law has seen my wife, her whole mood Very bad, she wants to stay with my wife, I wonder if you will allow it.”

"Comrade General, your mother-in-law wants to stay in the hospital to take care of your wife." The dean asked carefully, "Is my understanding correct?"

"Exactly, Comrade Dean." Sokov nodded and said, "I originally objected to her staying, but considering that my wife had just been injured not long ago, my mother-in-law was worried. Even if I took my mother-in-law home, her I’m afraid I’m also thinking about Asiya in the hospital, so I beg you to make an exception and let her stay to take care of Asiya.”

"Comrade General, you are making it very difficult for me." The director said with some embarrassment: "According to the hospital's regulations, the patient's family members are not allowed to stay in the hospital to stay with him. If you want your mother-in-law to stay in this way, I will I’m worried that someone will gossip.”

"Is it really not possible?" Sokov asked.

The dean hesitated for a moment, then decisively made up his mind: "Comrade General, when Comrade Malenkov left, he specifically told me to take good care of your wife and find ways to meet all your needs. Let your mother-in-law stay. Although it is against the rules to accompany you in bed, there are exceptions to everything. I have the final say on this matter. You can let your mother-in-law stay. If she wants, she can also go to our medical staff’s cafeteria.”

"Great, Comrade Dean, this is really great." Sokov originally thought that he would be rejected when he came to discuss with the Dean about letting Nina stay, but he did not expect that the Dean actually agreed. He quickly held the dean's hand, shook it vigorously, and said gratefully: "On behalf of my whole family, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

After returning to the ward, Sokov told everyone about Nina being able to stay with Asya.

When Nina learned about this, she was naturally overjoyed. The nurses taking care of Asiya were secretly relieved. With Nina's cooperation, they could feel more relaxed during the night shift.

"Nina, the dean also said that if you are hungry, you can eat in the restaurant of the medical staff." Sokov turned to look at the nurse and said: "Comrade nurse, my mother-in-law doesn't know where the restaurant is. I would also like to ask you to show him the way.”

"No problem, Comrade General." The nurse replied very readily: "I will accompany her to the restaurant when necessary."

Sokov took Bakanidze and left the hospital. He originally planned to drive home directly, but Bakanidze shook his head and said, "Misha, please take me to the place where Asiya had a car accident. I want to find out how the car accident happened."

Seeing that Bakanidze was going to investigate the scene of the car accident in person, Sokov could only agree no matter how reluctant he was. Who knew that the other party was Asiya's father and his father-in-law? Just have to listen.

The two drove to the scene of the accident. The two cars involved in the accident were still parked in their original positions, but their bodies were covered with a thin layer of snow.

When Bakanidze got out of the car to look for useful clues, Sokov sat in the car and started smoking. He found that the brake marks on the ground had been covered up by the snow. In other words, even if Bakanidze personally surveyed the terrain, I am afraid that He couldn't get the answer he wanted. After all, it is you who others have to deal with, so there is no need to involve Bakanidze and the others.

Bakanidze lingered at the scene of the car accident for a long time. Although he worked hard to find various useful clues, he was not a criminal investigator after all. It was simply impossible to find important evidence from it.

When Bakanidze returned to the car, Sokov pretended to ask: "Did you find any useful information?"

"Hell, I haven't found any useful information at all." Bakanidze shook his head and said: "If we had arrived here before it started to snow, we might have been able to find some clues, but now that it's snowing, there will be a lot of snow. The evidence has been buried, making it even more difficult for us to restore the truth.”

"Shall we go home now?"

"Misha, I thought about it and I don't want to go back to your home yet." Bakanidze said: "You can send me back to the instrument factory immediately. I want to find some friends."

"What are you looking for friends for?" Sokov asked nervously.

"I'm not a criminal investigator, so I can't find any useful information from the car accident scene. But I can't do it, and that doesn't mean my friends can't do it either. I plan to go back to the instrument factory to find some old friends and ask them to accompany me here to investigate the scene. "

Sokov did not expect that Bakanidze was unwilling to find any clues and actually planned to find friends to investigate the scene together. If they really find out that this car accident has an ulterior secret, will they, the participants, get themselves killed?

Thinking of this, he quickly said to Bakanidze: "I don't think this is appropriate. Anyway, after the investigation, the traffic police department has reached the final conclusion. I think there is no need for us to make extraneous matters."

"I felt very sad when I saw Asiya's appearance today." Bakanidze was silent for a while, and then said: "I always felt that Asiya's car accident happened too strangely, so I wanted to go to the scene in person. Let’s take a look. Although the heavy snow covered most of the traces, I can still tell that this car accident is not normal, so I plan to go back to the instrument factory and find friends with criminal investigation experience to help me confirm it.”
