Chapter 411: Being followed
Qiao Maimai patted his face to relax his facial muscles a little, and wanted to walk back.
Along the way, the cold wind gusted, and not many pedestrians passed by.
Qiao Maimai suddenly felt that she was doing it, just now people said that they wanted to take her for a ride but they didn't agree, and now the cold wind is blowing here, which is really evil.
In large cities, many roads are separated from people and vehicles, and there is a green belt of more than a meter between motorized and non-motorized lanes.
This side is no exception.
Qiao Maimai walked on the sidewalk on the right, and it was almost impossible to see the cars driving on the motorway, because the trees in the green belt were so luxuriant, so dense that if there was a car coming at the intersection, there would be a car passing here, and it would not be obvious to the point that it would never be seen in front of it.
To be honest, walking on a sidewalk like this is weird and scary.
The street lights on the side of the road illuminate the motorized lanes, and the non-motorized lanes here are almost not illuminated, the light is dim, and some electric vehicles in the shadows are parked and look like someone squatting, which is strange and scary.
Qiao Maimai suddenly thought that he had to take a taxi, otherwise he would definitely be scared to death.
So Qiao Maimai did not hesitate to take out his mobile phone and use the online car-hailing software to book a car for himself.
Because it was the middle of the night, Qiao Maimai was ready for no one to take the order, but soon she heard the prompt that her order was accepted.
Qiao Maimai saw that it was less than a kilometer away from him, and he could arrive soon, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if it was close to the destination, Qiao Maimai didn't want to walk back by himself now.
After waiting in place for about half a minute, Qiao Maimai suddenly saw a black shadow in front of him move, and then the black shadow became higher and higher, looking like a person!
Qiao Maimai became even more nervous, in the middle of the night, what was a person squatting on the side of the road for no reason?
Could it be a drunken young man?
Qiao Maimai unconsciously took a few steps back.
The man turned around and walked all the way to Qiao Maimai.
Qiao Maimai saw that he had been approaching, and immediately became nervous, and immediately walked backwards, always keeping an eye on the man's movements.
The man was tall, looked like a man, and kept walking towards Jomaimai.
Qiao Maimai's guard rose suddenly, she was afraid that the other party was a bad person, so she kept retreating.
The other party didn't chase after him directly, but just walked over step by step with a steady foot, taking advantage of his long legs, even if he didn't deliberately speed up his pace, he was getting closer and closer to Qiao Maimai.
Jo Mai Mai felt that something was wrong.
Just passing through a relatively sparse green belt, Qiao Maimai accelerated his pace and continued to retreat.
The other party soon passed through this area as well.
Qiao Maimai saw that the person was indeed a man, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth that looked ill-intentioned.
Qiao Maimai chuckled in her heart, and suddenly felt that she was likely to have met a bad person.
I'd rather be embarrassed by my own misunderstanding, Qiao Maimai doesn't want anything to happen on the way home, and the research in her research institute is only halfway through!
So Qiao Maimai did not hesitate to turn around and strode up.
The man in the back also ran up, obviously chasing Qiao Maimai, otherwise there was no need for Qiao Maimai to run and chase all the way.
Jo Mai Mai felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
What's going on?
Why did the man chase her?
Is it really a bad intention?
Do you want to rob or rob sex?
Qiao Maimai felt that her head was buzzing, and she wanted to call for help with her mobile phone in her hand, but she was afraid that she would be caught up if she was distracted and looked at her phone.
Seeing that his physical strength was getting worse and worse, and the man behind him was getting closer and closer, Qiao Maimai wanted to die.
If I knew earlier, I wouldn't be afraid to trouble a few professors, but now that I'm being chased by a pervert, I can't escape.
At this moment, Qiao Maimai's mobile phone rang.
Qiao Maimai looked up and looked at it, it was an unfamiliar number.
If you guessed correctly, this number must be the number of the ride-hailing driver you just called.
Qiao Maimai hurriedly picked it up and shouted over there: "Help, there is a strange person who has been chasing me, help me!"
The online car-hailing driver on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then asked Qiao Maimai tentatively: "I'll turn on the headlights now, you look back, can you see my car, let me confirm, one of the two people running in front of my car, is it you?"
When Qiao Maimai heard this, he immediately turned around and saw a car about three or four hundred meters behind him with its headlights on.
"Yes, I saw your car!" Jo Mai Mai did not dare to stop and continued to run.
The other party immediately said, "You wait, I'll come over to help you." ”
After saying that, he put down the phone, went down with one foot on the accelerator, and caught up.
The sound of cars driving on the road is scary.
Ordinary cars will not make such a loud sound when driving normally, and he stepped on the accelerator to the end!
Qiao Maimai was somewhat relieved to know that someone behind him would come to help.
But she couldn't run.
However, she was worried that after she was caught by that strange person, it would be inconvenient for the online car-hailing driver to save herself, after all, he was a stranger, and few strangers would be willing to risk a conflict with someone else for a stranger, not to mention that the other party seemed to be tall.
So Qiao Maimai is still running desperately.
The man behind him got closer and closer, and suddenly grabbed Qiao Maimai's clothes.
Jo Mai Mai screamed in fear.
At this time, the taxi behind also arrived, and stopped next to Qiao Maimai and the man with a brake.
"Wife, what's the matter, who is this man?" the taxi driver struck first.
Qiao Maimai immediately understood what the driver meant, and immediately replied, "I don't know him!"
The taxi driver immediately got out of the car and pulled a baseball bat out of the trunk.
In fact, this is in the trunk of his son who is learning baseball, and he didn't expect it to come in handy today.
"What's your situation, what do you want to do to my wife?" The man saw the driver menacing, and looked like his wife had been violated, and immediately let go of Qiao Maimai.
"Sorry, I recognized the wrong person, I thought she was a friend of mine. ”
Qiao Maimai frowned, looking at this man, he was not a good person, how could he simply recognize the wrong person?
If she recognized the wrong person, why didn't she call her name just now?
So Qiao Maimai would never believe that this man recognized the wrong person.
She felt that this man must be trying to do something bad to her while there was no one at night.
Either rob or rob.
So Qiao Maimai said that he must call the police.
As soon as the man heard that he was going to call the police, he was immediately frightened and turned his head to run.
The taxi driver rushed up and hit him with a stick in the head, and the man fainted.
Qiao Maimai watched the man fall, turned his head and asked the driver, "You say, should we call an ambulance first now, or call the police first?"
The taxi driver said: "This kind of stalker, pervert, what is the ambulance, just call the police to tow it away, if it weren't for me today, you don't know what would have happened, and you're worried about this kind of person!"
Qiao Maimai also thanked the driver again and again: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened today." ”
The driver waved his hand: "I just did what I could, you don't have to worry about me." ”
"I have to worry about whether there's surveillance around here. ”
After all, there are too many things that are said to deliberately hurt people when they are brave and brave.
Just now this man was about to escape, he was excited for a while, and went down with a stick, if there is surveillance, it is easy to be accused by the other party of intentionally hurting people, and when the time comes, he will not be detained, then it will be troublesome.
When Qiao Maimai heard the other party say this, he immediately helped to look around, but he didn't see any surveillance, so he was relieved.
In order to prevent the man from running away, Qiao Maimai and the driver kept staring at the man on the side of the road, not giving him a chance to run away.
It was at this time that Qiao Maimai noticed that the driver seemed to be a little familiar.
"You're not ......," Jo Mik remembered the driver of the taxi he had taken when he went to the institute during the day.
"Yes, that's me. The other party didn't hide it at all and admitted it directly.
"It's so late, you're still driving, it's not easy. Qiao Maimai felt that the taxi driver was really hard.
The other party waved his hand: "Where, where, usually I go back to sleep at nine o'clock in the evening, isn't today an exception." ”
"Huh?" Qiao Maimai wondered, is it what happened today?
The driver looked at Qiao Maimai and smiled: "It's not because of you." ”
"It's not good to take a taxi at night near here, I think you're from out of town, come here to do research, if you come out late at night and can't get a taxi, it's dangerous, so I'm thinking about coming here around twelve o'clock and waiting, in case you need to take a taxi." ”
When Qiao Maimai heard him say this, his heart was inevitably moved.
"I'm not your acquaintance or friend, and your family won't be worried because you're waiting for someone like me who may not be able to take your car, so you don't go back so late?"
The driver shook his head: "Of course not, I told my wife before I made this decision." ”
"My wife agrees with me, she said that the doctors you came to help us like this are good people, and if you can help a little bit, it can be regarded as some of our efforts for those patients, and she expressed her support for me. ”
Qiao Maimai was more and more moved.
Sure enough, there are more people in this world who know how to repay their kindness.
Although they did not directly help the driver's family, the driver's family supported them with the most kind actions.
"Thank you, if it weren't for you today, I'm afraid I don't know what would happen to this person. Qiao Maimai's voice choked as he spoke.
She thought of Gu Chuanjiu in the children's hospital.
If something happened to her, I don't know what Gu Chuanjiu would think.
"It's okay, as long as you are still studying in the research institute in the future, and you need to go back to the rest place at night, I will come and wait for you, so that you will not encounter such a thing as today. The taxi driver said enthusiastically.
