Smartphone bent by falling. Need to get access to its data

Hi,
had my redmi note 5 in my backpocket when falling. Thus it is bent between battery and mainboard. Display, clearly, is broken and is not showing anything.

As there it relevant data on it (pictures of pregnancy and birth of my daughter) I really like to get access to the internal memory to read out the pictures.

To get access, I tried connecting it via USB to my computer (windows 10). Device Manger showed it as QUSB_BULK device. Drivers could not be found.
When for test, I checked another Windows 10 computer, QUSB_BULK driver where found it windows was able to install them at least. Now, it shows up as "Qualcom HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)".

Can anyone give hints how to continue and how I can get access to the memory?
Or if it is not possible via USB and which alternatives I can check?

Thank you in advance.

Where you able to get your data or get your phone repaired without losing data? I'm having the exact same issue but for me, my phone did not fall or anything. it just randomly stopped working and showing QUSB_BULK on my PC
