He found a relevant legal provision from the legal texts he rembered with his "photographic mory."
The filing and acceptance of the cri of abandonnt required serious circumstances.
Judicial interpretations related to serious circumstances also detailed several such situations. For example, cases where the victim suffered serious injury, illness, or death due to abandonnt. Or instances where the victim was left with no ans of livelihood, beca destitute, and was forced to beg on the streets. It also covered situations where the victim was driven to suicide. Furthermore, if the perpetrator, despite repeated admonitions, refused to change their behavior, thereby placing the victim in a perilous situation, this was considered serious. Finally, particularly heinous ans of abandonnt, such as beating or abusing the victim during the act, also qualified.
Currently, Feng Cuihua’s life wasn’t so tragic.
rely relying on testimonies from neighbors and financial transaction records was not enough to prove that the other party had committed abandonnt.
It looks like a trip to the hospital is needed, Qin Mu thought. He sought out Feng Cuihua again.
He rembered Feng Cuihua saying she had suffered a serious illness six months prior.
But not a single family mber had signed for her.
Consequently, she missed the optimal treatnt window, leading to mobility issues in her lower body and a slight disability.
In her daily life, her four sons also subjected her to varying degrees of physical and verbal abuse, drove her out, and forbade her from living in their rooms.
If I can just gather this evidence... the court should be able to accept the case, he mused.
Afterward, he called Feng Cuihua and the ever-present Zhang Qingyuan to join him.
The group went to the hospital where Feng Cuihua had been treated, intending to retrieve her dical records.
However, as they approached the hospital’s entrance, they saw a ’Closed’ notice posted on the door.
"How... what do we do now? How could a perfectly good hospital just shut down? Does this an we can’t sue?" Feng Cuihua said with a bitter smile, worry creeping into her voice.
She wasn’t particularly keen on suing her own sons.
But their actions... had truly chilled her to the bone.
As Qin Mu had said, she simply wanted justice or, in other words, for them to realize their errors and nd their ways.
But now... it seed they were in trouble.
The most crucial evidence was unattainable.
"This is all Xiao Qin’s fault," Zhang Qingyuan said, rolling his eyes and unable to resist comnting. "These days, hospitals in Jin City are being temporarily reorganized one after another."
The hospital where Feng Cuihua had sought treatnt... had also been caught up in the storm, unable to escape its effects.
Qin Mu: "..."
He stared blankly at the hospital before him, sowhat speechless.
The shockwave I’ve triggered in the industry this ti... is indeed a bit too strong. Even this hospital has temporarily closed down, he thought.
He glanced at the hospital’s main entrance and noticed a smaller gate beside it. "There’s a small gate over there," he suggested. "Let’s go in and take a look."
This small gate... wasn’t closed and seed to be an employee entrance.
A few security guards were stationed near it.
However, as he approached, the guards’ expressions changed dramatically.
"Oh no! It’s Qin Mu!" one of them exclaid.
He had barely registered the cry of alarm when the guards fled through the small gate, slamming it shut behind them.
Even from a distance, he could hear the fear in their voices.
Am I really that frightening? Qin Mu touched his nose in embarrassnt, sowhat at a loss for words.
He had just wanted to ask about the situation.
But these guards... had recognized him instantly and fled at the re sight of him.
With his "photographic mory," he was sure he didn’t know these guards.
But these guards... could accurately state his na and recognize him at a glance.
Sothing feels off, he thought.
"Cough cough, Xiao Qin, maybe... you should hide nearby while we go ask about the situation," Zhang Qingyuan suggested, glancing at Qin Mu, the corner of his mouth twitching.
The impact of Qin Mu’s presence... is just too great, Zhang Qingyuan thought. As long as Qin Mu is around, we definitely won’t get anything. We won’t even be able to get through the door.
"What does this have to do with ?" Qin Mu muttered, his expression darkening. Nevertheless, he followed Zhang Qingyuan’s advice and moved away from the small gate.
Waiting at a distance, he watched as Zhang Qingyuan, leading a visibly anxious Feng Cuihua, approached the small gate and began to knock.
Sure enough, before long, the small gate opened.
The previously fleeing security guards poked their heads out one after another.
Looking around and not seeing him, they actually began to converse patiently with Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua.
Then, these security guards actually invited Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua in through the small gate.
Watching this scene from afar, Qin Mu was utterly bewildered.
Why on earth... did these people run away before I even got close?
「Half an hour later.」
Outside the hospital, Zhang Qingyuan erged with Feng Cuihua.
In their hands, they carried dical and hospitalization records.
The contents... detailed Feng Cuihua’s previous fall and her treatnt at the hospital.
During that treatnt, because Feng Cuihua was an elderly, critically ill patient and no family mber had provided a signature, the hospital hadn’t dared to proceed with surgery.
Ultimately, this led to a delay in her treatnt, resulting in a series of neurological sequelae.
Although she could still walk, she developed nurous problems with her legs, feet, and hands.
A person who once enjoyed robust health... now suffered from a deteriorating physical condition.
"How... did you manage to get these records?" asked Qin Mu as he watched the two walk towards him.
They had spent less than half an hour in total, from entering to leaving.
That efficiency... was simply too fast, Qin Mu thought.
After all, navigating hospital procedures these days, not to ntion the queues, involved a mountain of bureaucracy.
