Chapter 488: Chapter 488: Despair 4_1

"Sit tight!" Zhou Hongjin warned, he then steadily parked the car on the side of the road. Only then he looked in the direction Zhou Chenyue was pointing to and was surprised to see that it was indeed the car he had lent to his roommate!

Across the road was an unmistakably severe car accident scene. Half of Zhou Hongjin’s car was crushed under a large truck. The roadside was crowded with people, the police had already arrived, and Zhou Hongjin’s roommate was engaged in heated argument with a scruffy middle-aged man.

He Zhilan got out of the car with Zhou Chenyue, suppressing her personal emotions, and walked over with Zhou Chenyue.

"My God! Totally smashed into scrap metal!" Zhou Chenyue exclaimed.

He Zhilan was also stunned, wondering how serious an accident it could have been.

Over there, the protagonist of the accident seemed to be on the verge of starting a fight. Zhou Hongjin’s roommate, Zhang Xiao, almost died of laughter when he heard the scruffy truck-driving uncle say it was just an unintentional collision.

"Uncle, are you blinded? You call this an accident?" Zhang Xiao pointed at the wrecked car and the police officer standing nearby. "Luckily, I noticed a corner shop across the road and got out of the car two seconds earlier to buy cigarettes. If I were two seconds late, I would have been killed on the spot! I saw this uncle deliberately driving at my car, smashing into it head-on! My car was not initially parked here, but a few meters behind. The uncle drove up in his truck and knocked my car several meters forward without braking. He continued driving recklessly until my car was pressed under the truck, and only then did he get out of the truck unhurt. After that, he even thought I was crushed to death in the car and didn’t forget to get out of the truck to confirm whether I was dead or not! If this isn’t attempted murder, then what is? If you tell me this is an accident, I’ll cut off my own head and let you use it as a chair!"

Zhang Xiao was beyond furious, he felt like he had had a narrow escape from death. Had he not suddenly craved a cigarette and stepped out of the car to buy one, he wouldn’t even know how he had died!

Just two seconds late and he would’ve been dead!

His hand was still on the door of the car, and he hadn’t had time to close it before he heard a scream from the roadside. He turned around and saw a large truck rushing straight at him. He was quick to dodge and had to run several meters before he could avoid the accident.

"What attempted murder? You’re still alive and standing here, aren’t you?" The uncle even joked as he spoke.

A policeman looked at the uncle, waved his hand, and stopped the argument. "Whether it was intentional or not can be investigated. Now it can be confirmed that you are fully responsible for this accident. At the very least, you have to pay for the car you turned into scrap metal. As for the rest, we can settle it back at the police station."

"Are you kidding me? Young Master Zhou, you’re so rich, do you expect us ordinary people to pay for one of your cars? I earn my money by hard work driving loads, I can’t afford to pay. If you want me to pay for the car, I can’t. If you want, take my worthless life!" After saying that, the scruffy middle-aged uncle just sat down on the ground and refused to move.

Over there, Zhou Hongjin, who had been watching the situation unfold, felt something suspicious when he heard the truck driver address Zhang Xiao as Young Master Zhou. He pushed through the crowd, walked straight up to them and said, "I own the car, I am the Young Master Zhou I overheard him referring to. I suspect that this is a case of attempted murder. Now, I would like to report this to the police."
