...
Vera felt better after being informed of her condition by the doctor. In general, she has recovered from the accident, the wounds will heal quickly. However, Vera needs to stay in the hospital for observation until she fully recovers, or until the doctor allows Vera to be discharged. That natural thing raised Vera's anxiety even more. She stayed for treatment to get well, which meant that Vera had to use more and more money. The problem is that Vera doesn't have a penny to solve that painful problem right now. Vera couldn't mention that she had a stepfather, she didn't want anyone to know about her pitiful story. Finally, About the story of hospital fees, the hospital thought it would be solved after contacting Vera's family, unfortunately, Vera lied that she was an orphan, making the hospital not know what to do how. No one had the heart to send her away when Vera needed to be looked after until better. But hospital rules must be followed. Vera of course understood and she was almost ready to pack up her tired body to go. But again, God has eyes, making people open their hearts. Finally, after many struggles with the hospital's leadership, the female doctor who performed the surgery decided to become the one to pay all the costs for Vera. Vera when she heard the news, of course, she appreciated the female doctor's kindness, but she could not accept it comfortably and easily. Vera doesn't want to be in debt to anyone. Before Vera's determination, as well as the determination from half a doctor. An optimal solution has been proposed. Vera asked permission to borrow money from the doctor and she promised to pay it back to the doctor after she recovered. Of course, it took a while when Vera got a job and had a steady income. Well, that's what Vera offers for her future. The female doctor smiled in agreement and told Vera that just relax, she does not require Vera to pay soon.
Vera is truly grateful that no matter how bad her life is, Vera has met some kind people in her life.
And so time passed a few more days. Everything would be fine, that's for sure if it weren't for the fact that the police had come to Vera to investigate the accident. After a delay, the police decided to investigate because, during the search of the scene, they discovered suspicious things.
"Hi, nice to see you're awake." The majestic male police officer entered the room and asked Vera: "How are you feeling, in the mood for us to have a conversation?"
"Hi." Vera looked confused at the two men in police uniforms: "How can I help you two?"
"We are from the city police department." While answering her, a male police officer showed his identification card to Vera: "We want to ask you something about the accident. Are you willing to cooperate?"
Biting her lips carefully, Vera finally agreed to cooperate with the police. Vera knew she couldn't get away with the testimony. Vera was originally a witness in this case.
"Of course, I can help as much as I can." Vera herself wasn't sure how she could help, so it was better to talk in a reserved way than confidently assert, "But I'm always here to help."
"Good." Police said, in hand is a notebook and pen, ready to synthesize Vera's testimony.
Vera took a deep breath, nervously waiting for the first question. Anything was she was ready to answer. Just please don't ask about who you are? Where and how is your family?
"First, what's your name?" The policeman looked away from the notebook and looked straight at Vera. The sudden look made her shiver. Vera is often afraid of people who are short-tempered and have a serious appearance. The image of an aggressive man is Vera's biggest obsession. It reminded her of her goddamn stepfather.
Returning to the question, Vera knew she shouldn't delay too long, much less lose her temper because of the usual procedural questions. Pretending to have a dry cough to cheer up, Vera opened her mouth to speak.
"My name is Vera, Vera..." She paused at the mention of her last name. Vera hated her stepfather's last name. He insisted on forcing her to change to his last name to conveniently imprison her as permitted by law. His actions were like taking away Vera's freedom. Just thinking about it, she saw that there were thousands of worms crawling around in her body. The body is very uncomfortable. Vera loved the name her parents gave her. So she decided to return to that name from now on.
"I'm Vera Taylor." Holding her head high, Vera introduced herself proudly with her father's last name.
"Yes, Miss Taylor. What is your relationship with the victim? I mean the man with you, what's his name?"
One question baffled Vera. She does not know who the man in the accident is, how. When it comes to relationships, it's exactly that the two sides have nothing to do with each other.
The inertial shaking of the head once unknowing has been shown indifferently. Vera was unaware that this answer indirectly opened the door to further troubles. Things that she hadn't thought of before.
"What do you mean ma'am?" The police looked puzzled. hastily questioned: "You don't know him, who was taken to the hospital with you?"
All right, Vera should have made up a lie, that they were a couple, but what his name was Vera had absolutely no idea. Or she could say that the man gave her a ride so she didn't know his name. Unfortunately Vera showed suspicion right from the start. And Vera is not good at lying. So now she can't flip loose, that's not right in front of the police.
"I don't know who he is." Vera took a breath of courage and confessed, "I just happened to be there and called the police."
The two policemen glanced at each other. The turn of events was quite sudden. They came here just wanting to know how the accident happened, how they got out of the car. The initial prediction was that it rained heavily yesterday. This couple was driving on the road, the car skidded, leading to the car flipping. Yes, it did rain that day, but it was before the accident. After the rain, slippery roads are normal.
"Did you see how the accident happened or was you present after the accident?" After a moment of confusion, the police continued to ask questions. Vera was startled when she realized that this question was serious was, And she just got in trouble. If you think about everything, Vera is smart enough to understand that she is a witness, seeing it all with her own eyes. Oh, my God, Vera cried out in surprise. She naively forgot about it. She should have said otherwise, inventing a story that was appropriate for the situation. And that way, no harm will appear. Once again Vera cursed her ignorance, realizing it too late.
Now, what should Vera do? Just Vera denied and said that she was present after the accident so she didn't know much, but would the police believe it? And the very important thing, don't miss the very interesting detail that is how you got there in the wilderness? What is she there for? Is it all just a coincidence? Yes, the police will ask Vera like that. And is Vera's answer convincing enough? Vera is currently weaving so a lot of bad things are about to happen.
"Dear teacher." Seeing Vera's human form, the police called for her attention: "Please answer questions."
Vera rolled her eyes from the first to the second. It is a fact that never changes that Vera is not good at lying or deceiving anyone. Most of all, she was facing the police. Those who are good at grasping the opponent's mentality. In this situation, Vera's objection would be unwise.
Anyway, they also investigated the matter before and after, Vera's successful lie now will be difficult to avoid responsibility later. That's why Vera insisted on telling what she knew.
"I was wandering on the road at the time when I saw his car overturned. I ran to try to pull him out of the car before it exploded. Then I took out my phone in his pocket and called him. notify the police."
With extensive experience, it is not difficult for the police to hypothesize.
"What are you doing there ma'am, in the woods early in the morning?"
How should Vera explain her accidental presence? Will the police believe her for a morning jog or argue with her boyfriend and he drops her on a deserted street and leaves her alone... And there are so many other reasons...
Vera felt a chill under the scrutiny of the police.
The man was watching her from head to toe and stopped at the bruises on her body that Vera showed.
"Can you tell me exactly what happened? Why are you there?"
Vera struggled to breathe evenly at the great pressure that was filling the room. God, just remembering what happened the night before made her shiver. The body instinctively trembled non-stop
At Vera's agitation, the policeman looked panicked.
Memories of that day suddenly flashed through Vera's head. It terrified her and caused a lot of pain to Vera's head. Instinctively, Vera cried out in agony, defending herself by cowering, dodging the outstretched hands. Whether it's the hand that wants to help Vera.
