Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 389 A Life of Being Conquered

Liu Quji acted swiftly, and within just a few days, the online sentiment had completely shifted.

Yu Liu hasn't gone out these past few days, just stayed at home. All the food she ate was brought by Tang Shuai. I don't know why Liu Quji has time, but he comes over every day. Sometimes he stays for a while, and sometimes he leaves after a few minutes.

Perhaps to have something in common to talk about, he would report the progress of things to Yu Liu every day.

This incident resulted in death, and it's impossible to change everyone's opinion, but it's possible to shift the public's sentiment online.

First, the traffic police finally determined the guilt. They didn't follow public opinion in handling the matter; they upheld the law impartially. Both parties were responsible for the accident, but the police determined that the taxi driver bore greater responsibility.

This result was immediately met with resistance from the deceased's boyfriend, who demanded a retrial and even sued Liu Quji's father.

The court refused to hear the case.

He seemed completely unsurprised by the outcome, and then posted the story online, inciting netizens to create public opinion, as if he wanted to stir up trouble.

Just then, these indignant netizens, who demanded an explanation from the police, were slapped in the face by a TV program.

The national television station acted swiftly, producing a program in just a few days after Liu Quji made significant concessions, and broadcasting it during prime time.

This program was meant to be educational, but it used the car accident that happened to Yu Liu as a case study to urge people to take the correct action when they encounter injured people who need emergency rescue.

The program explained the entire process in detail from beginning to end. It all started with the deceased, who suffered a sudden heart attack during an argument with her boyfriend and needed emergency medical assistance. Her boyfriend was completely at a loss and could only call 120 (the emergency number in China). However, the ambulance encountered a traffic jam on its way, and when it tried to find another route, it was also blocked off, making it a very long process to clear the congestion.

When a rescue is needed, an accident can happen at any moment.

Just when the deceased's boyfriend was about to despair, the taxi driver from the accident arrived.

He may have meant well, but he did something wrong.

He and the deceased's boyfriend carried the still-suffering heart attack victim into a taxi and rushed her to the hospital. During this process, they didn't even think to contact 120 (emergency services), consult a doctor, or inform the arriving ambulance; they simply took her away.

Touching a patient having a heart attack without a doctor's guidance is a very dangerous act.

Not to mention, during the process of taking the patient to the hospital, neither of them notified the other, and they rushed to the hospital in a hurry, speeding through the city.

Police retrieved the video footage from that day, which clearly showed that the taxi nearly caused an accident many times during its high-speed driving. Given the heavy traffic in the city, the driver's reckless driving was utterly reckless.

During the speeding incident, the taxi collided with two other vehicles. However, the taxi driver was in a hurry to drop off passengers and did not stop the car. The other drivers who were hit had no choice but to accept their fate.

On one occasion, the taxi driver almost rear-ended the car in front of him. The driver noticed something was wrong in his rearview mirror, swerved in time, and had a minor collision with the other car. Fortunately, nothing serious happened, and the taxi just sped off without stopping. The other driver who was almost hit called the police. Later, considering that the taxi driver was speeding, the police told him about the incident, and he said he would not pursue the matter.

Finally, at the moment of the accident, it was wrong for Yu Liu and her companion to stop their car there. However, the road the taxi driver was on had signs indicating to slow down when turning, and he knew that the other side was the curve, but he didn't slow down and just turned, which led to him not being able to react in time and crashing into the car.

To be honest, even if Yu Liu and the others didn't stop, if another car happened to be there, given the taxi driver's speed, they would still crash into it.

The taxi driver and the deceased's boyfriend may have been in a panic and forgot to call the police when they needed to, instead trying to treat the deceased entirely according to their own wishes, which unfortunately caused the problem.

The program also specifically pointed out that while such rescue actions are commendable, the methods were wrong. Like those scenes on TV where kind-hearted people rush people to the hospital in emergencies, in those situations, they are always escorted by police. The roads are cleared beforehand, not like what they did, speeding through a busy city center. This isn't saving lives; it's playing with fire!

In such situations, the least you should do is call the police; if you encounter difficulties, seek help from the police. With cooperation from various departments, there will absolutely be no delay in treatment. However, the taxi driver and the deceased's boyfriend acted on their own initiative. Both sides are at fault in this matter. To be fair, the taxi driver also bears responsibility; you can't say that his wrongdoing is negated simply because he did a good deed.

That concludes the matter. The program explained it very clearly, leaving netizens with no room for rebuttal and gradually making the situation clear. Indeed, as the program stated, both sides were at fault.

Seeing that netizens were no longer swayed by his actions, the deceased's boyfriend quieted down online. However, in reality, he approached the taxi driver and Liu Quji, seeking compensation.

To put it bluntly, it's about money. My girlfriend died because of you guys, so you have to pay money to avoid further trouble.

He even considered asking Yu Liu for money, but before he could even show his face to her, Tang Shuai beat him so badly that he ran away in a sorry state.

……

“I mean what I say. Now you’ve been cleared of wrongdoing and don’t have to stay home every day anymore.”

Liu Quji sat on the sofa in Yu Liu's house, holding a fruit knife and peeling an apple. With each cut, a piece of the apple peel fell off, revealing a thick layer of fruit flesh underneath.

"Actually, staying at home all the time is quite nice. After clearing my name, I'm going back to drawing comics!" Yu Liu was still a little resentful because after gaining the understanding of netizens, her comics returned, and she was going back to updating twice a week.

Hearing this, Liu Quji was somewhat surprised: "You don't like comics?"

According to the information obtained, Yu Liu really likes comics and loves drawing them, so she became a comic artist after graduation.

"Huh?" Yu Liu smiled to cover up her embarrassment: "I like it, but I'm a little tired from drawing."

It's not just a little, it's incredibly tiring!

Despite her inner turmoil, Yu Liu maintained a smile on her face.
