Chapter 2614

Standing at the front was the director of the hospital. After hearing Sokov's question, he quickly pulled off the mask on his face and said respectfully: "Comrade General, after careful rescue by experts, your wife has escaped from the hospital." His life is in danger." After saying that, he turned to one side and gestured towards the back.

The medical staff following the dean quickly turned aside to make way for the people behind him.

Sokov saw the flat cart where Asiya was lying on being pushed out by two nurses. There was a nurse next to him holding a sling bottle with his hand. He quickly stepped forward to check on Asiya, but saw that her eyes were closed, her face was pale, and she shouted several times, but there was no movement.

"Comrade Dean," Malenkov, standing behind Sokov, asked, "Why haven't you woke up yet?"

"Comrade Malenkov." Facing the questioning Malenkov, the dean expressed enough respect: "We have tried our best. This female comrade was seriously injured, although we pulled her back from the edge of death. , but it will take some time to wake up.”

When the nurse pushed the cart toward the ward, Zhukov and Rokossovsky did not follow him. Instead, they said hello to Sokov and left with them.

Malenkov and the dean followed the flat car to the ward, watched the nurses transfer Asiya from the car to the bed, and then said: "Comrade dean, General Sokov still has a lot to do, I'm afraid he can't spend all day Stay with his wife in the hospital, can you arrange some special care for her? "

"No problem." The dean replied readily: "I will arrange four nurses to take care of the general's wife 24 hours a day."

"Comrade Dean, your arrangement is very reasonable." Malenkov nodded and said, "That's it."

"Comrade Dean," Sokov asked the dean tentatively: "I wonder how the fees for the four special guards are calculated?"

As soon as Sokov finished speaking, he saw Malenkov and the dean staring at him with shocked eyes, and he couldn't help but asked with a guilty conscience: "Did I say something wrong?"

"Comrade General," the dean said first, "don't you know that our medical care is free, and all expenses during hospitalization are free?"

The director's words reminded Sokov of the fact that Russia does have free medical care. It basically costs nothing to see a doctor or be hospitalized. However, their hospitals and pharmacies belong to two different systems. Seeing a doctor does not cost money, but buying medicine does. Spend money. Just like medical treatment and hospitalization in China, some expenses can be reimbursed through medical insurance, while others can only be paid out of pocket. If a comparison must be made, the part that can be reimbursed domestically is free for them; while the self-paid part is where they need to spend money.

Sokov scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment: "I thought the hospital arranged special care for the patients and required additional charges."

Malenkov raised his hand to look at the time, and then said to Sokov: "Misha, it's getting late. I'm going back to rest. If you need my help with anything, remember to call me." After that, A small piece of paper with a phone number written on it was thrust into Sokov's hand.

Zhukov, Rokossovsky and Malenkov all left one after another. In the end, only Yakov and the traffic police lieutenant Sabina were left with Sokov. Sokov thought that it was his wife who was hospitalized in a car accident, and it was obviously inappropriate for them to stay with him in the hospital, so he politely said to the two of them: "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early. Today's Thank you very much.”

"Misha, what are you talking about?" Yakov said with some displeasure: "You and Asiya are both my friends. Now that something happened to Asiya, as a friend, how can I not accompany you?" Where are you?"

And Sabina said respectfully: "Comrade General, it is my honor to serve you. I'm going back first. If you need anything, just call me."

After sending Sabina away, Sokov and Yakov sat on the bench in the corridor outside the ward and smoked.

Although medical staff passed by from time to time, the two generals who were seen smoking were not bothered by anyone to stop them from smoking here.

"Misha," Yakov asked cautiously, "Asiya is out of danger. Would you like to take the time to contact Asiya's parents and tell them about this?"

"Let's wait until daybreak." Sokov said: "If you call me in the middle of the night, I guess the person who answers the phone will not be willing to send a message." When saying this, Sokov couldn't help but miss the convenient communication in later generations, no matter how far apart they are. You can reach us with just a phone call.

"Well, let's wait until daybreak." Yakov finished, paused for a moment, and then expressed his opinion: "Misha, I always feel that this car accident is not what Lieutenant Sabina said. Simple."

In fact, Sokov also suspected that this car accident was not an accident, but more like it was deliberately caused. It's just that I was worried about Asiya's safety just now and had no time to think about it. Now I calm down and think about it again. No matter how I look at it, I feel that this car accident is full of doubts.

Thinking of this, Sokov looked around and saw that he and Yakov were alone in the corridor, so he lowered his voice and said, "Yasha, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

Yakov and Sokov have known each other for many years, so he could naturally guess what Sokov was thinking, and he quickly said: "Misha, don't worry, I will drive to the scene to check if it gets dark later to see if I can find anything. Clues."

But Sokov shook his head and said: "Yasha, I'm not asking you to help me find clues, but I want to go to the scene with you."

"Are you going to the scene with me?" Yakov asked in surprise: "Then who will take care of Asiya?"

"It's okay. There are two special guards in the house taking care of Asiya. Even if I'm not here, it won't have any impact." Sokov was eager to know the truth of the matter, so he said to Yakov: "Yasha, you must help me. , otherwise I will feel uneasy."

"Okay then." Yakov nodded: "We'll set off at dawn. I happen to know the location of the car accident, so I can just go there later."

After finally waiting until it got dark, Sokov went into the ward to check on Asiya. Seeing that she was still in a coma, he said hello to the two nurses taking care of her: "Comrade nurses, I still have some things to deal with." , I would like you to take care of it here.”

"Comrade General, don't worry and go about your business." An older nurse said, "We will take good care of your wife."

After thanking the two of them, Sokov walked out of the ward and patted Yakov who was napping on the bench: "Yasha, let's go."

Yakov rubbed his eyes, stood up, looked towards the ward, and asked in a low voice: "How is Asya's condition?"

Sokov shook his head and said solemnly: "I haven't woken up yet."

The two left the hospital building and got into the car parked in the parking lot.

On the way to the accident scene, Sokov once again asked a question that concerned him: "How did Comrade Malenkov know that Asya had a car accident and rushed to the hospital in time?" "At the beginning, I also thought It was Marshal Zhukov who informed him, but after listening carefully to their conversation, I realized that Marshal Zhukov had no idea that Comrade Malenkov was coming." Yakov said cautiously: "I think he may have made arrangements near you. Eyeliner, so that we can learn about your situation at the first time. ”

"Is there another possibility?" Sokov felt that he was more vigilant. Every time he went out, he would pay attention to the movements around him and did not find anyone following him at all. He was leaning towards another possibility: "Actually, Was my whereabouts reported to Comrade Malenkov through some special channel by the security force in charge of my compound?"

Yakov thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Well, your analysis makes sense. This possibility exists."

After more than ten minutes of driving, the car arrived at the scene of yesterday's car accident.

Since it is now the New Year period and most institutions are on vacation, the two vehicles that crashed yesterday are still at the scene of the accident and have not been towed away.

In order to figure out what was going on, Sokov asked Yakov to park the car fifty or sixty meters away from the scene of the accident, then got out of the car and walked over on foot, and carefully checked the traces left on the ground to see if there were any that could be used. clues.

After some observation by the two, Sokov discovered that the truck that caused the accident rushed directly from the right lane to the oncoming jeep, and there were no traces of braking on the ground. Regarding the damage to the two vehicles, the driver's side of the jeep had been completely smashed into parts, leaving a lot of blood stains and suspected human tissue. Although Sokov did not see the driver's body after entering the hospital, , but judging from the current situation, it is estimated that the driver died without any body parts.

As for the truck that caused the accident, there was no major damage except that the front end of the left side was dented. And judging from the fact that there were no brake marks on the ground, Sokov could conclude that the accident was not caused by a drunk driver causing the vehicle to lose control, but rather a murderous tendency.

"Yasha, what do you think of the scene?" Sokov had his own judgment in his mind, but did not say it out loud. Instead, he asked Yakov.

Yakov first looked at the tracks left by the truck on the ground, then at the two cars that collided with each other, and said slowly: "Misha, if you want to know what I think, I can tell you truthfully. You, this was a man-made car accident, not an accident caused by a drunk driver who lost control of the vehicle as Lieutenant Sabina told us."

Sokov knew in his heart that in order to find out the truth of the matter, it was not enough to just check the traces left at the scene. It would be best to ask the driver to see if he could get any useful information from his mouth. . Thinking of this, Sokov said to Yakov: "Yasha, get in the car. Let's go to the traffic police station to find Lieutenant Sabina and ask him to take us to see the driver. I have a lot to ask the driver."

After the two got in the car, Yakov turned the car around and headed towards the traffic police station.

A few minutes later, the car stopped at the door of the traffic police station.

A traffic policeman on duty on the roadside saw a car parked at the door of the traffic police station. When he walked over and was about to ask a few questions, he saw Yakov rolling down the window.

The traffic policeman was startled. He quickly stood at attention and raised his hand in salute: "Hello, Comrade General, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Is Lieutenant Sabina here?"

"Yes, yes." The traffic policeman nodded and said, "He is the officer in charge during the New Year period and stays here all the time."

"Tell him to come out to see me. I have something important and I want to see him."

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the traffic policeman showed a troubled expression on his face: "Comrade General, please forgive me, there is something wrong at the traffic police station. Comrade Lieutenant is handling the matter?"

"Comrade General," Sokov bent down and said to the traffic police outside: "Please call him out, I have something to ask."

When the traffic policeman saw Yakov's rank of major general, he looked particularly nervous. Now when he saw a general talking to him, he became even more panicked. He stammered: "Comrade General, I, I just said, say Passed by, come out of the traffic police station, something happened, Lieutenant, Comrade Lieutenant is handling it."

"Comrade Traffic Police, go and ask him to come out." Sokov said impatiently: "Just tell him that General Sokov is looking for him, and he will come out."

"Okay, Comrade General, please wait a moment. I'll call the lieutenant over right now."

Not long after, Sabina ran out of the station following the traffic policeman. Seeing Sokov and Yakov who had just gotten out of the car, they quickly raised their hands in salute and asked somewhat unexpectedly: "Comrade generals, why did you think of coming here?"

"Comrade Lieutenant, what happened at the station?" Yakov asked curiously: "We want to see you, but this traffic police comrade is not willing to call you yet."

"Comrade General, he did not lie. Something did happen. I was just dealing with it."

"What happened?" Yakov asked.

"A driver who was imprisoned in the detention room arbitrarily opened the window last night and was exposed to the northwest wind all night long. He actually froze to death."

Hearing what Sabina said, Sokov felt an ominous premonition in his heart, and quickly asked: "Who died? If I guessed correctly, it should be the driver who caused the accident, right?"

"You guessed it right, Comrade General." Sabina nodded and said, "That's him."

It seemed outrageous to learn that the driver he was looking for actually froze to death in the detention room last night. However, it further proves Sokov's suspicion that the car accident Asiya suffered was not an accident, but a premeditated murder. Otherwise, when he was about to find the driver to find out the situation, the driver died inexplicably in the detention room.

Yakov knew that the driver was dead, so the clues he found were lost here, so he turned to Sokov for advice: "Misha, what should we do?"

The subject to be investigated was dead. Sokov knew that even if he stayed here, he would not get any useful information, so he waved his hand and said, "Yasha, let's go back."

Under Sabina's surprised gaze, the two got back into the vehicle and drove towards the city.

Watching the vehicle driven by Yakov drifting away, the traffic policeman asked Sabina tentatively: "Comrade Lieutenant, do you need to report this matter to your superiors?"

"Whether or not to report this matter is my business." Sabina glared at the traffic policeman and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't need you to teach me. You should go back and continue on duty."
