Old Sun shook his head.

Li Mu said, "If you own a house or other assets, you can sell them to pay for the treatment. That's another way."

"Unfortunately, as far as we know, you have no assets under your name, a son who has long since severed ties with you, and a wife who was frequently subjected to domestic violence by you and has already divorced you through the courts."

“You have nothing now except for your illness. Apart from the Sun family who beat you up, no one is responsible for your health or paying your medical bills.”

"You know your current condition, it's late-stage cirrhosis, you can't wait much longer."

"You only have two choices: let the Sun family take responsibility, or enjoy your last moments."

Old Wang lowered his head and clenched his fists. Even ants try to survive, and he didn't want to die. He wanted to seize every glimmer of hope.

In this situation, relying on the police to demand medical expenses is no longer an option. As someone like him, he knew how difficult the Sun family was to deal with.

But no matter how difficult he was to deal with, nothing was more important than his own life. Old Wang was also a master at staging accidents and swindling people, and to save his life, he was willing to risk being beaten rather than back down.

He sighed softly and made a decision.

On Li Mu's side, seemingly casually, he began to discuss with Zhao Jiwei the locations of the Sun family's several businesses.

"Jiwei, is the Sun family's auto repair shop located in...?"

"Is the restaurant owned by the Sun family located in...?"

……

They asked and answered questions, discussed for a while, then looked at Old Man Wang before leaving.

……

The next day at noon, Li Mu received a call from the hospital informing him that Old Wang was missing. He and Zhao Jiwei rushed to the hospital and checked the security footage; Old Wang had been gone for two or three hours.

Fortunately, the nurse who was making rounds remembered Old Wang quite well, otherwise we still wouldn't know he was missing!

Li Mu roughly guessed where Old Wang had gone, but he wasn't in a hurry. After checking the surveillance footage and asking the nurses some questions, he was about to head back to the station when he received a call from the station chief.

"Li Mu, are you in the hospital right now?"

Li Mu said, "Yes! The hospital just told me that Old Man Wang is missing. I came to check on him and was just about to go back to the station to think of a solution."

Wang Shouyi sighed: "No need, we've already found Old Man Wang."

Li Mu asked, "Where?"

Wang Shouyi sighed and said, "The Sun family's auto repair shop is going to have to pay for hospitalization fees!"

Li Mu asked, "Did the Sun family give it to you?"

Wang Shouyi said with a wry smile, "How could we possibly give it to him? Not only did we refuse, but a serious conflict broke out between us. Grandpa Wang was beaten, and his condition is very serious; he's already unconscious!"

Li Mu asked, "Is he really unconscious? Or is he faking it?" It's no wonder he asked that; both Old Man Wang and Old Man Sun were experts at faking accidents.

Wang Shouyi was both amused and exasperated: "Really, we can't pretend this time. The Sun family doesn't know their own strength; they've really hurt someone."

Li Mu said, "Chief, I just got out of the hospital. Should I go over there?"

Wang Shouyi said, "Don't come. We just called 120 and got an ambulance. Old Wang's condition is a bit dangerous. He needs to be taken to the hospital for emergency treatment. Just wait there."

Li Mu said, "Yes, Chief!"

Then, he asked curiously, "Chief, Old Wang was beaten so badly, it's already a criminal offense, right? What about the Sun family? Have they arrested anyone?"

Wang Shouyi said, "When we arrived at the scene, we caught one person on the spot. The rest had escaped beforehand, and we are organizing a manhunt for them."

Li Mu said, "Then, could we take this opportunity to cooperate with the Majiagou Police Station and take them down directly, completely eradicating this cancerous gang?"

Wang Shouyi thought for a moment and said, "It's worth a try. Director Ma has wanted to deal with them for a long time, but he just hasn't found the opportunity. This time we've put the opportunity right in front of us, I don't believe they won't be tempted."

The two chatted for a few more minutes before Wang Shouyi, eager to communicate with the Majiagou Police Station and report to the bureau, quickly hung up the phone.

A dozen minutes later, as an ambulance drove into the hospital, Li Mu saw Old Man Wang, who was on the verge of death, covered in blood, and unconscious.

After being rescued, he finally recovered and was then sent to the intensive care unit. Li Mu could tell that Old Man Wang was really in danger this time!

Although he felt that Old Wang deserved it, he actually hoped that the other party wouldn't get into trouble because of this incident.

Chapter 369 Solution

After the Sun family left, Wang Shouyi sighed and tapped the table.

"Let's discuss how to resolve this!"

Gao Chao said, "The Sun family are local bullies who are used to being arrogant. They won't bow down and reconcile so easily. It's too difficult to resolve this matter head-on. We can only try other approaches."

Cheng Hao's eyes lit up and he said, "Chief, I just contacted Chief Liang of Majiagou. Most of the Sun family's businesses are in their jurisdiction."

"Liang told me that the Sun family was a local tyrant. They were not only bullying and monopolizing the market, but they would also do anything to suppress their competitors."

"This family is notorious in their area for being difficult to deal with."

Ye Wei said, "If that's the case, why wasn't anything done? Why have they been allowed to roam free until now?"

Cheng Hao shook his head and said, "Things are not that simple. The Sun family are locals, and Sun Family Village is a large village. They stick together very closely."

"Although Director Ma wants to deal with them, he doesn't dare to act rashly unless the bureau is serious. Otherwise, there are quite a few local bullies like the Sun family who bully and dominate the market. Who should be dealt with and who shouldn't be dealt with?"

Wang Shouyi nodded: "There are quite a few small local thugs like the Sun family who operate in the gray area. In addition, they are all locals, and some of them are very united. Without solid evidence, it is indeed difficult to eradicate them in one fell swoop."

"However, although we can't completely eliminate them, using this to resolve Liu Qiang's family's issue is one way. But we still need to discuss the specifics of how to do it."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Wang Shouyi looked at Li Mu and smiled, "Director Li, you were involved in this case from the beginning. Do you have anything to add?"

Just as Li Mu was about to speak, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID.

"From the hospital."

Wang Shouyi frowned: "Why is the hospital calling? Answer it quickly, has something happened over there again!"

Li Mu nodded and answered the phone.

"Hey! What? Grandpa Wang's hospital fees are insufficient and he needs to pay again."

"Didn't the Sun family pay five thousand? What? It's all gone. The Sun family refuses to pay and doesn't care anymore."

"Okay! I understand. We will communicate with the Sun family and resolve this as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu said, "The hospital said that the five thousand yuan paid by the Sun family has been spent, and they refuse to pay again, saying they will not be responsible for it anymore."

Wang Shouyi rubbed his temples, saying with a headache, "Why is there so much trouble with the Sun family? The matter of Liu Qiang's family of three hasn't been resolved yet, and now Grandpa Wang is causing trouble again!"

"When the settlement agreement was signed, didn't they promise that the five thousand was just the first payment? Why are they abandoning it now?"

Li Mu laughed and said, "What's so strange about that? It's perfectly normal for the Sun family!"

Wang Shouyi said helplessly, "Then what should we do? The Sun family has already been released. They don't want to take responsibility now. Given their behavior, it won't be useful for us to go and talk to them."

"We can't expect our department to take responsibility!"

Li Mu said, "Of course the institute can't be responsible for this. I'd better go to the hospital first to get a better understanding of the situation and see if there are any other solutions."

Wang Shouyi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, go ahead, we'll discuss it further."

Li Mu nodded and left the meeting room. He then called Zhao Jiwei and they went to the hospital again.

As soon as I arrived at Old Man Wang's ward, I heard the medical staff talking to him about the medical expenses.

Upon seeing Li Mu, he immediately turned his attention to him and complained, "Officer, you've finally arrived. The patient in bed number twelve had already paid all the hospital fees yesterday, and it's been in arrears all day, but no one has paid."

“Our hospital has regulations; if the payment isn’t made, the treatment will have to be suspended.”

Li Mu said, "What you said makes sense, nurse. We are handling this matter and will try to resolve it as soon as possible."

"However, we police are not family members, so we can't be involved in every aspect. Your hospital, as a place for saving lives, can't just stop treatment directly. You need to give us police time to handle this matter."

The nurse said, "Well, we'll give you two more days at most. If you don't pay after two days, we'll have to suspend treatment."

Li Mu said, "Okay!"

The nurse sighed and left the ward.

When Old Man Wang saw Li Mu arrive, he immediately perked up: "Officer, you must help me! The Sun family promised to cover my medical and hospital expenses, but after paying five thousand, they stopped caring."

"You were the ones who mediated this matter. They beat me up, and I wouldn't have settled with them if they hadn't promised to cover my medical expenses!"

"I agreed to the settlement because I trusted you police officers. You must take action against them for breaking their promise!"

Li Mu said, "We are coordinating this matter and trying to get the other party to fulfill their promise. However, you should also be prepared for the other party not to honor their commitment."

Upon hearing this, Old Wang immediately sat up abruptly, his voice trembling with anxiety. "Officer, what do you mean? Does the other party not intend to pay? Is it useless for you to intervene?"

Li Mu shook his head with a wry smile: "You've dealt with the Sun family before, so you should know how difficult they are to deal with."

"These past two days, we've been handling another case related to the Sun family. Let me tell you about it and you'll understand."

“The old man Sun who fought with you was walking his dog without a leash, which scared a little kid, who then scraped his leg and mouth and bled.”

"Guess what happened?"

Old Wang asked curiously, "The Sun family is denying their debt and has no intention of compensating the other party!"

Li Mu shook his head: "It's not just that they don't intend to compensate. Because the Sun family is too difficult to deal with, the child's parents can't reason with them, so they just plan to accept their bad luck and let it go."

"As a result, Old Man Sun turned the tables and demanded that they pay him money. He wouldn't let them leave until they paid him, and he still wouldn't give up even when the police came."
