Chapter 349: Good Luck
Chapter 349 [Good Luck]
"Is that always how you do things?"
In the passenger seat, he glanced at the inverted mirror, and looked at the car behind him not far away, Lin Leyan turned his head and looked at Chen Xiaolian.
Chen Xiaolian didn't speak, quietly looking at the front of the car.
"You're not very old. Lin Leyan's tone was very calm: "White people can't tell the age of our yellow race very well...... In their opinion, our skin is better than theirs. But I'm just like you, so I can be sure you're a little younger than Hans thinks. You know what? They all guessed you were in your twenties, but I knew you were not even twenty. ”
"Maybe I'm born with a tender face?" Chen Xiaolian pursed the corners of his lips.
"I've factored this into this. You look like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old. Lin Leyan smiled: "Although you deliberately smeared your face very dirty. But it can't hide from my eyes. ”
Chen Xiaolian held the steering wheel in one hand, freed one hand, touched the cigarette in his pocket, and lit it for himself.
Lin Leyan suddenly took the cigarette case from his hand, and also took out a bite and lit it in his mouth.
Chen Xiaolian glanced at her unexpectedly: "You smoke? ”
"What?" Lin Leyan smiled faintly: "Don't you know that in American universities, many young people have smoked hemp?"
"Big hemp is big hemp, and cigarettes are cigarettes. Chen Xiaolian shook his head.
"I don't usually suck much, but I only ...... when I'm upset I'm talking about cigarettes. Lin Leyan took a puff very skillfully, and he spit out a cigarette, which was very skillful.
Chen Xiaolian stopped talking.
"Have you always been like this?" Lin Leyan asked, "I mean...... Accustomed to violence and killing to solve problems?"
"......" Chen Xiaolian was silent for a few seconds: "Didn't you say okay, don't you spy on each other's secrets?"
"I'm curious, I'm a woman. Lin Leyan said it so confidently that Chen Xiaolian was speechless.
"In my world. It's something you have to get used to. Chen Xiaolian replied.
Lin Leyan was silent.
After a while, she snuffed out the cigarette, then stuffed the cigarette butt into her pocket, and looked at Chen Xiaolian's side face: "You make it very difficult for us, in short, it's very ...... Complex. ”
"Huh?"
"You saved us. I got the car too. But you killed people in our presence. Depriving others of their lives. If you want to kill those rebels, it's nothing. However, in order to snatch the car, kill those poachers......" Lin Leyan hesitated.
"Contrary to your philosophy?" Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "I never said that I was a good person. ”
"Can you tell me...... If...... If these guys weren't poachers, just a few ordinary passers-by, would you still kill people because they wanted to snatch a car?" Lin Leyan asked in a calm tone, but Chen Xiaolian glanced at her and noticed that there was a hint of nervousness in her eyes, a hint of ...... Faint anticipation.
“...... No way. Chen Xiaolian sighed: "I'm not a good person. But it didn't ...... It's not that bad. ”
Lin Leyan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
The two people in the car were silent for a while, and Chen Xiaolian also snuffed out the cigarette butt, and suddenly asked, "Why?"
"What, why?"
Chen Xiaolian looked ahead, but his tone was very calm and calm, but the words he said were very direct: "Your attitude towards me." ”
After a pause, Chen Xiaolian continued: "Your companions all have thoughts of avoiding me, but you got into my car. Friendly to me and caring about me. Plus in the car this morning. You give me chocolate ......"
Speaking of this, Chen Xiaolian touched his face and said with a wry smile: "It can't be that you like me, right?" Is it because you ...... yesterday Is it a hero saving beauty? But I don't think so. ”
Lin Leyan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
When she laughed, her face, which was originally just a middle-to-upper posture, added a bit of peculiar charm.
looked at Chen Xiaolian. Lin Leyan shook his head: "Don't think too much." I'm a few years older than you. And...... A person like me, who has been adventuring in the wild all year round, has never seen anything. It's not like those little girls who read a few romance novels and are full of fantasies. You're a little too short for me. It's also too young. If you're a little older and have a more angular face, maybe I'll be tempted. ”
On this sensitive topic, the two of them said it very calmly.
Chen Xiaolian liked this atmosphere very much, or rather, Lin Leyan, who spoke very frankly and honestly, had a good impression -- not that kind of ambiguous good feeling.
"You have a lot of secrets in you. Lin Leyan said in a low voice: "I can feel it, and I can see it." You're just amazing. I've never seen anyone overturn a car with their bare hands...... At least you've never seen anything like yours do. I've only seen people do this on TV at the World Hercules competition. And...... You're so ruthless when you kill people that it feels like you've been through a lot of killing. But at your age...... And what I know about the social situation in the Celestial Empire, how can it be?"
"Maybe I'm an alien? I've been living on Earth for 400 years. ”
"Hahaha! I don't like to watch Korean dramas. Lin Leyan smiled.
"But you know what I'm talking about. ”
Lin Leyan couldn't help but smile: "Okay, I've watched this one, this one is very famous." ”
"Say, why?" Chen Xiaolian put away his smile: "Why do you have such an attitude towards me? Since it's not the kind of good feeling between men and women, then for what?"
Lin Leyan fell silent, she turned her head to look out the window.
After a while, Chen Xiaolian sighed: "Okay, if you don't want to say it......"
"Because of my brother. Lin Leyan turned her head, her tone and face were very calm, but Chen Xiaolian could hear the hidden waves under this calm.
"My brother, he left this world when he was thirteen years old, and if he were alive, he would probably be about the same age as you are now...... I mean, you're probably about eighteen. ”
Lin Leyan reached out and took out a wallet in his pocket and opened it. Inside is a photograph.
Lin Leyan, who has short hair, looks much younger than now. Holding a thin teenager in his arms, smiling at the camera.
Chen Xiaolian glanced at it.
That young man, thin and delicate, from his eyebrows to his temperament, he was five or six points similar to himself.
He noted. The boy was bald and wore a hospital gown.
"My brother, this picture was taken three months before he left. Lin Leyan put away his wallet: "You are very similar to him, I thought so when I saw you for the first time yesterday." ”
Chen Xiaolian withdrew his eyes, was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry." ”
"Nothing, it's been years. Lin Leyan shook his head: "He walked very calmly without too much pain." ”
She exhaled. Facing the breeze in the wilderness, he said softly: "He has always been curious and wants to travel around the world. Over the years, I've been to a lot of places, especially Africa, where I've spent a lot of time...... I often wonder if my brother was still alive, he would love to come with me to this beautiful place.
I really want to take him to see the Great Migration. Take him to see the savannah. ”
Chen Xiaolian didn't speak, and he didn't know what to say.
Fortunately. Lin Leyan was a girl with a frank temperament, and she didn't act weak and sad, she quickly took a deep breath, tried to fill out a smile, and said with a smile: "Okay! Now you can rest assured? I'm not in love with you, little guy." ”
"Hahahaha. Chen Xiaolian immediately laughed a few times.
"Don't blame Hans. In fact, they are very grateful to you, but your approach is not in line with their philosophy. Lin Leyan said in a low voice: "They all believe in God and deprive others of their lives, this kind of thing is difficult for them to accept." ”
"Hmm. I understand. Chen Xiaolian glanced at Lin Leyan: "What about you?"
"Me?" Lin Leyan shook his head: "Actually...... I'm kind of an atheist. Although I believed in Buddhism with my parents when I was a child, I didn't believe in it myself, haha. ”
After a pause, Lin Leyan said in a low voice: "If it weren't for volunteering, maybe I would have wanted to be an adventurer." ”
Chen Xiaolian looked at the girl, and the other party also happened to look at it.
Chen Xiaolian smiled: "Hmm...... So, the two of us talked about it, and it was a ...... Are you alright?"
"Of course it's fine. Lin Leyan said with a smile.
Chen Xiaolian thought for a while: "Are we friends?"
Lin Leyan said: "I'm OK, look at you." You're so mysterious, I thought a mysterious person like you wouldn't just make friends with people. ”
"Then it's a friend. Chen Xiaolian said slowly: "Since we are friends, can you do me a favor?"
"You say. ”
"When I got to Kabuka, I needed a place to stay, I had heard that it was very chaotic and the ordinary hotels were not very quiet. ”
Lin Leyan thought for a while: "I can introduce you to the hotel where our organization is located, that place is the permanent residence of our organization in Kabuka, there are guards, and it is relatively safe." ”
Chen Xiaolian took something out of his arms and threw it to Lin Leyan.
Lin Leyan took it, saw that it was a few rolls of US dollars, and looked at Chen Xiaolian suspiciously.
Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "It's a ...... Rate. ”
"It doesn't take so much, you probably don't know the price level of Kabuka. ”
"That's a donation to your organization. Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "Although I am not a good person, I occasionally want to do some good deeds to accumulate virtue." Your organization must be in need of donations. ”
Lin Leyan thought about it, and he was not hypocritical, so he put it in his arms: "I'll help you transfer it - anonymous, right?"
"Well, anonymous. ”
Along the way, there were no more accidents.
In the evening, the two vehicles finally arrived in Kabka, the capital of Kambia.
There was clearly some tension on the roads outside the city, presumably because of the recent rebel incidents, with checkpoints and uniformed government troops with guns on the roads.
Hans and the others showed a warrant signed by Zeid, and soon the two cars were allowed in...... It saved Chen Xiaolian some trouble.
The car entered the city of Kabuka.
The city is not very large, about the size of an ordinary county town in the country - maybe even smaller.
There were hardly any high-rise buildings, but by the time the car reached the eastern part of the city, the streets were noticeably cleaner, and there were no of the tattered sheds on either side and the ragged black children running around the ground, which were the most common on the way into the city.
It stopped next to a three-story building that looked quite Western-style, with a large iron gate at the door, and there were security guards standing guard with guns.
The car drove into the big iron gate, and inside was a courtyard, which was a hollow-shaped building, with a courtyard in the middle, surrounded by three-story buildings. There are also two small buildings in the courtyard.
"This is where we are staying and the best hotel in Kabuka in town. It is inhabited by foreign businessmen, or workers of other voluntary organizations, charities, and some government officials. The owner of this hotel has a bit of strength in Kambiya and the whole Kabuka, you will be hard-pressed to find a cleaner and more secluded place than here. ”
When he jumped out of the car, Lin Leyan walked to Chen Xiaolian's side and pointed to the entrance of a hall in the distance: "You can check in there, and you can charge dollars here." We also only charge US dollars. I can introduce you and you will be able to check in here. ”
Chen Xiaolian turned his head and looked at the other car, Hans and the other four people got out of the car one after another, walked over, and nodded to Chen Xiaolian, Hans wanted to speak and stopped, but Chen Xiaolian waved his hand: "Needless to say." ”
"Well, still...... Thank you very much. ”
After Hans finished speaking very seriously, Weinstein and the others also nodded to Chen Xiaolian and left.
Before leaving, Weinstein glanced at Lin Leyan: "Lin?"
Lin Leyan smiled: "You go up first, I'll come in a while." ”
Lin Leyan walked to the side and found a black man passing by in the courtyard - this black man was wearing a suit, the typical hotel lobby manager's uniform-style suit.
Lin Leyan talked to the other party for a few words, pointed to Chen Xiaolian, the black manager nodded, turned around and walked in.
"Well, you can check in directly and you don't need identification here. Lin Leyan deliberately squeezed his eyes: "There is everything here, bread, clean food, hot bath water, clean rooms...... Ah, sure, if you need a woman, not here, but you can tip the manager a little and maybe he'll introduce you. But in Africa, you'd better be careful, there's a lot of HIV here. ”
Chen Xiaolian laughed and gently pushed Lin Leyan's shoulder.
Lin Leyan looked at Chen Xiaolian, suddenly took a deep breath, and said in a low voice: "Well, let's confirm it one last time." ”
"Confirm what?"
Lin Leyan smiled in a low voice, suddenly stepped over, leaned up, and quickly pecked Chen Xiaolian's lips.
This...... Is it a KISS?
Chen Xiaolian was stunned.
Lin Leyan had already stepped back quickly, looked at Chen Xiaolian, pursed his lips, and smiled mischievously: "It seems that I still don't feel it, okay, now that it's confirmed, I really didn't have any interest in you." ”
Chen Xiaolian was a little sluggish - this girl's actions were too unrestrained.
Lin Leyan walked over, gave Chen Xiaolian a hug, and whispered in his ear: "Thank you! Thank you for saving my life! Good luck in Africa." (To be continued.) )
