Chapter 59: The Story in the Hospital

  Bao Yulin entered the hospital room and saw Wei Ping preparing to use handcuffs on Bao Yu Feng. Without thinking, he immediately knocked down Wei Ping. He couldn't understand why the police were causing trouble for his sister when it was clearly their mother who had been injured. His sudden move made the atmosphere in the hospital room tense. As they say, "a master's move reveals their skill." With a simple grab of the collar and a pull, followed by a kick to the side of the leg, Bao Yulin's movement seemed effortless. However, to Wang Hong and Liu Feng, it was clear that this was part of a combat routine. If Bao Yulin completed the move, he would likely follow up with a knee strike and elbow strike. This would involve using his knee to strike the enemy's chest while they were still reeling from the initial kick, rendering them unable to cry out or resist. The next move would be to use the momentum from the knee strike to deliver a powerful elbow strike to the enemy's throat, which could potentially crush their trachea if done with enough force.

  Wei Ping was also from the reconnaissance team, and he was very familiar with this set of movements. However, after returning to civilian life for a few years and becoming a traffic police officer, these grappling and fighting skills were no longer useful, and gradually, some of the reflexive protective actions he had learned before could not be reacted to at all. But this did not mean that he was unaware of the danger of this set of movements. This scared him quite badly.

  The martial arts used by soldiers and police have fundamental differences. Soldiers emphasize one move to defeat the enemy, with a focus on fatal blows, simple yet effective movements, and clear intentions to kill. In contrast, police primarily deal with maintaining public order, focusing on capturing suspects alive, avoiding dangerous actions whenever possible.

  Bao Yulin fell down Wei Ping, but did not kill him, instead he took a defensive posture. The reason is simple, first of all, he didn't have the idea of attacking Wei Ping, just didn't want to see him "bullying" Bao Yu Feng. Although Bao Yulin didn't know what was going on, whoever encountered such a thing would definitely think of protecting their loved ones first. Secondly, Bao Yulin also clearly felt the danger. Wang Hong and Liu Feng's conditioned reflex action made Bao Yulin have to take defensive measures first. The law of the battlefield is to protect oneself first, and then use any possible opportunity to inflict damage on the enemy.

  On the sickbed. Bao Yulian's mother had not pursued Wang Hong's meaning, but after living in the city for a few years, the old lady understood a truth: whatever is to be done must be done clearly. So she didn't bother with Bao Yu Feng. Let her go and compete with Wei Ping, who knew that competing would lead to trouble. Seeing Wei Ping threatening to take Bao Yu Feng away, the old lady became anxious, just wanting to persuade Bao Yu Feng to give up, but then Bao Yulian burst in and knocked down the police officer.

  Bao Yufeng was in the county committee and wasn't too afraid of the police at that time. Bao Yulin now holds a French passport, as long as there's no extreme behavior, he isn't too afraid of the police either. But the old man is just an ordinary citizen and is still afraid.

  When Bao Yulin made a gesture of wanting to confront the two soldiers and police officers, the old man was worried.

  "Yu Lin, stop right there! Don't get into a fight with them! They outnumber you, be careful or you'll end up getting hurt!" If not for the cast on his leg, the old man would have jumped out of bed to hold back his son, whom he hadn't seen in years.

  "Mom, don't worry! I'm not afraid of them! What's going on?" Bao Yulin said coldly, taking a defensive stance. He hadn't expected that as soon as he got back, nothing would go smoothly. First, he heard that his mom had been hit and injured, and when he arrived at the hospital, he ran into police who wanted to handcuff his sister. Although he wasn't clear about what had happened, he needed to figure it out first.

  Bao Yulin stretched out his hand, and Wang Hong and Liu Feng thought Bao Yulin was a current serviceman or a retired veteran. However, seeing the fighting stance he adopted, it was apparently different from the capture and grappling moves of the current troops. The two looked at each other in dismay, this matter was indeed a bit strange. But thinking about it, they themselves were somewhat in the wrong, so they didn't say anything.

  "Alright, alright, no need to fight!" said Bao Yufeng, turning to Wei Ping. "I'm telling you, don't think that just because you're wearing a tiger's skin, you can scare people off. We won't fall for that! You don't need to bring out that so-called verdict either. My mom said we don't want your money, but he needs to apologize to my mom!" She pointed at Wang Hong and continued, "Don't think that just because we're ordinary people, you can bully us. We don't pick fights, but we're not afraid of them either. I'm telling you, if it weren't for the fact that my brother had just come back today, I would have taken you to the police station and seen what you'd say then!" Since her father's passing, Bao Yufeng had become stronger. She kept thinking that if she hadn't been so timid back then and let others intimidate her into not fetching water, her dad, Bao Guohua, wouldn't have died. From then on, Bao Yufeng forced herself to become even stronger. Gradually, her temper became more fiery.

  Wang Hong and Liu Feng heard this, their faces turned red. Originally, they found Wei Ping's family to worry that the victim's family would not forgive them, so they came with a big mouth open. At that time, it would be a big deal if it was noisy in the army. But unexpectedly, others didn't think much of it, and it seemed that they were using a villain's heart to measure a gentleman's abdomen. In fact, Wang Hong thought back, when he sent the old man to the hospital that day, Bao Yufeng's attitude wasn't bad at all, and it was only after seeing Wei Ping that she got angry.

  At this moment, Wang Hong and Liu Feng both relaxed their attacking posture. Bao Yulin also withdrew his hand. Wei Ping regretted it at this time. He was originally trying to help his comrades a little, but he didn't expect that his habit would almost cause trouble. If he really provoked the injured person's family and made a scene in the army, he would truly have no face to see his comrades in the army.

  "Mom, sister, how's mom? What's going on? Is there any danger?" Bao Yulin asked with his eyes fixed on several people.

  "Come here quickly, let mom take a look. Mom is fine!" The old man was so overjoyed that he even forgot about his pain. He hastily called out to his son.

  Bao Yulin didn't move, he stared at Wei Ping with his eyes. After all, as a former soldier, Bao Yulin knew that this matter had to be seen from Wei Ping's perspective. If it were in France, once the police were involved, things wouldn't be so easily resolved.

  Wei Ping looked at Bao Yulin staring at himself, and smiled awkwardly. From Bao Yu's words just now, it was not difficult to hear that as long as his attitude was a bit better, this matter would not be difficult to resolve. There was no need to make trouble for himself, the squadron leader, and the political commissar.

  "Comrade, since your mother was involved in this traffic accident, I'm here representing the county traffic police to mediate the incident. Who knew your sister would be so agitated? I was trying to control her just now, lest she does something irrational." Wei Ping thought for a moment and felt that his words didn't convey enough sincerity, so he added two more sentences: "Regarding this accident, the People's Liberation Army comrade has been very sincere. They took the initiative to contact our traffic police department and asked us to come out and mediate. The goal is to better divide responsibility and reduce harm to both parties involved in the accident. In fact, we're here to help resolve the issue more effectively. We hope you can understand." Wei Ping knew that his handling of the situation was a bit unconventional, but such things were generally considered normal as long as the problem was resolved. The traffic police department also found it difficult to deal with cases involving both civilians and military personnel, since the military had its own independent judicial system. Moreover, soldiers didn't have much money, making it a tricky situation to handle.

  "That's right, Auntie. Today's incident was my fault, I didn't pay attention to the road conditions and ended up bumping into you, please forgive me." Wang Hong knew it was time for him to step out and show his attitude, after all, someone had to play the good cop and someone had to play the bad cop.

  "Let's do it this way, you see if it's okay or not. In any case, I promise to take care of all the medical expenses for Auntie's leg injury this time. Let's get an estimate from the hospital first and pay in advance. If it's not enough, we can top up later. And if there's a surplus, consider it as nutrition fees for Auntie." Wang Hong's words were not only directed at Baoyu Lin's mother but also at Baoyu Feng and Baoyu Lin, because he could see that the elderly woman was injured but didn't have much say in the matter. When Baoyu Lin wasn't around, it was Baoyu Feng who took charge, but when Baoyu Lin arrived, Baoyu Feng fell silent, apparently this household still followed the man's lead.

  "Let's not talk about this for now, you wait a minute, I'll go ask the doctor and see how things are before we say anything." Calming down, Bao Yulin noticed that these two soldiers and police officers looked a bit guilty. To be honest, he still had good feelings towards the troops, military personnel, and police. After all, he had always been a soldier himself, and he knew that choosing this profession meant putting one's life in the most dangerous position at all times. Once there was a need, it was the soldier's responsibility to defend the country's sovereignty and territorial security, as well as protect the lives and property of ordinary people, without hesitation or excuse.

  "No problem, you go ask, we'll wait here." Seeing Wang Hong wanting to say something, Liu Feng hastily spoke up first. After all, as the political commissar, he had to ensure that Bai Yulin's intention was just to ask a question. At this time, if they were to offend him, the foundation for negotiation would be lost.

  "Mom, I'll go ask the doctor and come back to accompany you!" Bao Yulin first said to his mother, then told his sister: "Sister, don't argue with them anymore, I'll handle this when I get back."

  "Ah, go quickly and come back soon, you can hurry up a bit!" The old man leaned on the sickbed, with kindness and nostalgia in his eyes.

  Bao Yufeng didn't say a word, but at some point, a smile appeared on her face. Her younger brother was back, and this house felt like home again. She no longer had to worry so much.

  The old man lived in a small ward, and from then on, the hospital also started to talk about efficiency and making money. As long as you have money, everything is easy to handle. Bao Yufeng belonged to that class of people with money.

  Taking advantage of Bao Yulin's visit to the doctor's office, Liu Feng started chatting with the old man about family matters. He knew that this was the most crucial time to ease their relationship, and now that he had shown his authority, it was time to offer some sweetness.

  "Old man, your son is very capable. I just saw that your son seems to know some martial arts skills. Has he been a soldier before?" Liu Feng knew from the look on the old man's face that he was very satisfied with his own son, and looking at the way he gazed at his son, it seemed that this topic should be quite appealing to the old man.

  "It's still your sharp eyes, my son enlisted in the army at the end of '78, fought in Vietnam, and was awarded first-class merit!" The old man said this with a completely forgotten pain, his eyebrows flying high, his face full of excitement and pride.

  "First-class merit?" Liu Feng glanced at Wang Hong and Wei Ping, both of whom were soldiers. Everyone knew what first-class merit meant in the army. People often discussed it, saying that if they had the chance to go to the front line, they would strive to achieve some merit when they returned, but basically everyone was talking about second-class or third-class merit. No one dared to think about first-class merit. Because everyone knew that, generally speaking, first-class merit meant paying with one's life.

  "Which military region is he in now? Is he a scout?" Wang Hong asked. In his opinion, it was unheard of for a first-class meritorious deed to be demobilized. Bao Yulin had made a first-class merit during the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam and should have been at least a battalion-level cadre in the army by now, and with his skills, he might very well have been a scout.

  "Now? Ah." This sentence touched something at the bottom of the old lady's heart. Although she didn't say anything, it doesn't mean she didn't know about the situation.

  "My brother is now an army lieutenant, special forces!" Bao Yufeng chimed in. She deliberately spoke half-truths. At this moment, a strong sense of pride filled her. No matter what time it was, women's vanity always made them like to show off their best things.

  "Army Lieutenant? Special Forces?" Bao Yufeng's goal was achieved, not only Wang Hong, Liu Feng and Wei Ping were all stunned. It was said that the troops were going to implement a military rank system, but since there was no order for the ranks, where did this Army Lieutenant come from?

  "It turns out that's the case, I said his kung fu is so good, it's completely different from ours when we fight. It seems that a master is indeed different." Liu Feng furrowed his brow, thinking of Bao Yulin's attire and seemingly fake fighting moves, cautiously suspecting there was a problem, quietly poking Wei Ping.

  Wei Ping suddenly came to his senses after listening to Liu Feng's words and being poked by him. It turned out that the troops had not yet started implementing the military rank system, and the hand-to-hand combat techniques were the same nationwide, so how could there be different versions? This person must have a problem, and it seemed that Liu Feng was trying to get someone to come and help him. Thinking about it, even his own family members were deceived, he must not be a good person, nine out of ten, he was probably some kind of criminal. Wei Ping's heart started racing wildly.

  "Auntie, you chat first, I'll go to the bathroom. When your son comes back, ask him to wait for a moment. As the family member of the injured person, he needs to sign on the accident settlement document before we can close the case." Wei Ping said this with an extremely calm tone, without any unnatural reaction, and even Bao Yufeng didn't notice anything wrong.

  "Alright, don't worry, I'll let him wait for a while. My son is not an unreasonable person." The old man was in a good mood after all, his son had come back. Even if Wei Ping hadn't said that, she wouldn't have let her son leave today anyway, it had been so many years since they'd seen each other, and the old man still didn't know how many things he wanted to talk to his son about.

  "Old man, your son..." Wang Hong didn't notice Liu Feng's action just now and still wanted to ask about Bao Yulin.

  "Wang Hong, don't say anything else, let me speak instead." Wang Hong interrupted him suddenly.

  Wang Hong was very surprised. Liu Feng usually cooperated with his work in the unit, and the two people's affairs were clearly divided. He had never seen him interrupt himself like this before.

  "Auntie, look, this time you've gotten yourself into trouble, and we're all worried. Your son is a soldier too, so you can be considered one of our military dependents. If you ask your son, he'll tell you that our unit places great importance on maintaining good relations between the military and civilians, as well as between the military and local authorities. Generally speaking, when something like this happens, the unit will handle it very strictly. Not to mention that nobody wants something like this to happen, after all, you've been injured, and Captain Wang might also face disciplinary action because of this. But one thing is certain: if we are responsible, no matter what, we will take responsibility to the end..." Just as Liu Feng was about to launch into a long-winded speech, Wei Ping suddenly announced that he had notified the public security bureau. Just as Liu Feng had started speaking, Bao Yufeng interrupted him.

  "What do you mean it's your responsibility? Your Captain Wang was driving and hit my mother. Now she's just broken a leg, if she had been killed, would we still have to pay for the car lights?" Bao Yufeng wasn't one to suffer losses. She retorted on the spot.

  "No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Liu Feng was just trying to stall for time. Unexpectedly, he immediately gave Bao Yufeng a handle on the conversation, and he hastily explained: "I mean, we are very sincere in coming to discuss ways to deal with this matter. Someone got hurt, and we definitely have responsibility. We will not be short of any medical expenses that should be paid..." Liu Feng began to show off his skills as a political commissar, speaking fluently and at length.

  Wei Ping rushed out of the hospital room and ran towards the door as soon as he left. This was one of the advantages of being in charge of traffic accidents - he could get to the scene quickly. The traffic police were equipped with patrol cars, which had radios that allowed them to contact the county public security bureau directly. Thinking back to how Liu Feng, the political commissar, had tricked him earlier, Wei Ping couldn't help but admire his cunning. He was indeed worthy of being a political commissar, able to spot problems from such a small matter. On the other hand, Bao Yulin was stupid and had even fooled his own family members with his nonsense. The problem was that he didn't have any brains at all - not even a military rank or order had been issued, yet he dared to fabricate a special forces army lieutenant for himself. This was laughable. However, it also had to be said that Bao Yulin's idea of creating a special forces unit was quite clever and could easily deceive people.

  The county criminal police team was also excited after hearing Wei Ping's report. If it were true, as Wei Ping said, this would be a shocking scam. No one knew what was behind it, but one thing was certain: this was the first case of impersonating an active-duty military officer with a military rank in China since the downfall of the "Gang of Four".

  "Comrade Wei Ping, I'm ordering you, no matter what. Think of a way to stall that person until our arrival. I'm telling you, if this is confirmed, you'll be the one who gets the credit! Remember, you must stall him!"

  On this side, Liu Feng was still dragging things out with Bao Yufeng and her mother. On the other side, Bao Yulin was inquiring about the situation with the doctor. In another part of the county town, the comrades from the County Public Security Bureau's Criminal Police Brigade had all picked up their guns and were preparing to set off. According to Wei Ping's report, the suspect had been on the battlefield before and was very skilled with his hands, so it was estimated that he would be a difficult opponent. Therefore, everyone was being very cautious.

  The doctor repeatedly assured Bao Yulin that the old man's injury was not serious, it's just because of his age, his bones are not as strong as before, which led to the fracture. If it were a young person, at most, he would be crippled for a few days and nothing serious would happen. In theory, with this kind of situation, after being put in plaster, he could go home to recover. However, on one hand, considering the old man's age, and on the other hand, Bao Yufeng wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to give the old man a thorough physical examination, so he was not discharged from the hospital.

  Bao Yulin thought this was right, he hadn't been back for many years and didn't know how his mother's body was doing. It was indeed time to have a good check-up for her. However, he felt that the hospital conditions in the county were not very good. Since they had returned, and his mother's leg injury wasn't serious, it would be better to leave the hospital and go to a better hospital in the city. One reason was that the recovery environment and conditions would be better, and another was that they could have a comprehensive check-up for her body. So he proposed to the doctor to let his mother leave the hospital.

  In the county town, doctors have seen such things many times. Looking at Bao Yulin's attire, he doesn't seem like a wealthy person. As usual, in such situations, there is always a commonality. When they first arrive after an accident, whether it's the patient or their family members, they all put on a very distressed appearance, making demands for the best treatment and hospital room. Once they've negotiated the terms and gotten what they want, they start thinking of ways to save money, because whatever they can save is theirs to keep. Doctors look down on these people, but there's nothing they can do about it. In his opinion, Bao Yulin is probably no exception.

  "Alright, I'll help you with the discharge procedures. However, you must not stop taking the necessary injections and medications, or else the elderly will suffer even more." The doctor said while writing out the medical orders.

  "Don't worry about this, we will!" Bao Yulin didn't expect that in the doctor's eyes, he had already become a petty and narrow-minded person.

  It was originally a small hospital in a county town, and the discharge procedures were handled quickly, as long as the fee was paid.

  Bao Yulin did not expect that at the payment counter, he ran into trouble.

  "Sorry, we only accept RMB and foreign exchange coupons here. We don't accept foreign currency," the toll collector explained to Bao Yulin.

  "But I don't have any RMB on me, and I only have a little foreign exchange coupon. Whoever wants it can trade some US dollars with me at the listed price." Bao Yulin negotiated with the toll collector.

  "Sorry, we can't exchange foreign currency here. You can go to the Bank of China to exchange it, it's not far away. But you have to hurry up, the bank is about to close." The toll collector explained to him. It wasn't that the toll collector didn't want to accept US dollars, but she had never seen them before. Moreover, Bao Yulin took out large denomination US dollars, and no one dared to take the risk.

  Bao Yulin looked in the direction of the toll collector's pointing finger, and not far away was the Bank of China. He thought for a moment and decided to make a run to the bank after all, since having no renminbi on hand was really inconvenient.

  In order to catch up with time, he hastily ran towards the direction of the bank.

  Wei Ping was standing at the hospital entrance waiting for his colleagues from the county criminal police team. He calculated the time and they should arrive soon, then he could lead them to the ward to catch the "criminal". Just as he turned around, he saw Bao Yulin rushing out in a hurry.

  "It's gone wrong." Wei Ping thought to himself: He must have discovered something, and now he wants to escape. It wasn't unexpected that Wei Ping had this idea. Thinking about it, Bao Yulin's mother was lying in the hospital, two Liberation Army comrades were negotiating compensation with them, and their own judgment document hadn't been signed yet. Suddenly, Bao Yulin rushed out of the hospital, running so anxiously - if he hadn't discovered something, what would he be running for?

  Watching Bao Yulin's "escape" route, Wei Ping made a bold decision and quietly hid behind the car, observing Bao Yulin through the jeep window. He wanted to wait for him to run over and then suddenly capture Bao Yulin alone.

  Through the exchange of blows in the ward, Wei Ping suddenly realized that he was no match for Bao Yulin. However, as a people's police officer, it was his duty to capture the criminal, and besides, his comrades from the criminal police team would arrive soon, so he just needed to hold on for a while to get their help. In any case, he had to stick to his post and absolutely could not let the "criminal" escape from his hands!
