Chapter 176: Asking for Directions on the Platform
Two minutes later, with the sound of a shrill siren, an ambulance pulled to a stop at the intersection at a rapid pace, and doctors and nurses came running in the rain with stretchers. After a brief examination, the doctor immediately lifted the mother and child onto a stretcher and then into the ambulance. Immediately, the ambulance drove quickly to the hospital.
The crowd had dispersed, but Lu Yao stood firmly in the rain, watching the ambulance disappear into the corner ahead, his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
In particular, the seriously injured mother looked at the little boy, showing frightened and helpless eyes, as well as the little boy's childish and cute little face, and the small schoolbag on his back, which was constantly hitting Lu Yao's heart.
He suddenly remembered that the eldest girl and the second girl were also in kindergarten, and every day when they went to and from school, A-Ying would also pick them up. It's school day, are they back home safely, are they wrestling, are they getting rained?
He wanted to find a phone booth to call them right away and listen to their voices. He raised his right hand and touched the pocket of his jacket, and only sighed deeply for the dime left over from buying steamed buns and soy milk in the morning.
He walked past the traffic lights and continued his search for work along the street. But his mind kept flashing the bright smiles and cheerful laughter of the five golden flowers, the scene of grabbing his trouser legs around him to hug them, and the scene of playing with their toys, and the crisp cry of "Uncle!" that made people feel pity.
Thinking of this, he was no longer in the mood to continue looking for work. He was going back, back to A-Ying and the Five Golden Flowers. He wants to take care of them and protect them, which is also what he accepted his uncle's advice in person after having a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at his uncle's house last year.
After he decided, he immediately raised his right hand, wiped away the rain on his face and the tears soaked in his eyes, saw the road signs at the intersection in front of him, and resolutely walked towards the main road.
Besides, after the mole and Xiao Wu and Xiao Jiu divided labor, Xiao Jiu walked in the opposite direction east along Shahe Middle Road, and went to meet Lu Yao, who was walking westward. Mole and Xiao Wu continued to stand on the bus platform, pretending to wait for the bus, to pick up Xiao Jiu.
Five minutes later, Xiao Jiu met Lu Yao on an unfinished sidewalk. He saw the faltering Lu Yao walking towards him, one foot deeper, one foot shallow. He immediately stood under a landscape tree and raised his hand to wipe the rain from his face. In fact, he stared at a pair of mouse eyes, carefully observed Lu Yao's facial features, and found that it was very similar to what the mole and Xiao Wu described. Once he was sure, he turned around and walked back quickly.
Xiao Jiu returned to the bus stop and hurriedly reported to the mole: "Brother Mouse, it's Lu Yao, exactly as you and Xiao Wu described. But I see that he is walking a little abnormally, but he fell down, and he should have an injury on his body. ”
"It's best if he has injuries on his body, and if we have a conflict with him, he'll have some scruples. However, the second senior sister made a clear explanation, and we tried not to have direct contact with Lu Yao. Also, Lu Yao is a very powerful character, I have fought with Brother Pig, and he was defeated without even a single move, so you must not be careless!" said the mole.
"Understand, we all listen to you, we will do what you say!" Xiao Jiu said, and Xiao Wu nodded.
"Xiao Wu and I went to the opposite platform, Xiao Jiu stayed on this platform and pretended to wait for the bus, and continued to wait for Lu Yao to come. When we see which road the road will take when we reach the traffic light, we will follow him. We always track on both sides of the road separately to achieve double insurance. Note that Lu Yao is very vigilant, you must not get too close! Once he finds out, it will be very troublesome! Especially Xiao Jiu, you are tracking alone, so you have to be more careful. Little Five, let's cross the street and go to the opposite platform. After the mole gave the order, he walked directly to the traffic light intersection, and Xiao Wu followed behind.
After about ten minutes, Lu Yao staggered to the bus stop. He saw Xiao Jiu standing alone on the platform, seemingly waiting for the train.
There were three cement stools on the platform, and he walked to the middle stool and sat down slowly, resting for a while before continuing on his way.
Less than two minutes after Lu Yao sat down, a bus bound for Fuwei Village slowly stopped by the platform. Lu Yao wanted to get on the bus, but he couldn't even scrape together a dollar, so he could only watch the bus close the door and slowly leave the platform.
Lu Yao sat on the bus platform for five minutes and saw two buses entering and leaving the platform. Xiao Jiu, who had been standing in front of the stop sign, was the same as him, and he didn't get on the bus, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Lu Yao felt that he was almost rested, and he could continue to hurry. He struggled to get up and saw a traffic light intersection twenty meters ahead. Since he was very unfamiliar with the roads in the city, he didn't know which road to take out of the customs to go to the Songlin District, so he walked towards Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu also saw that Lu Yao was approaching him, he thought that Lu Yao wanted to see the bus route on the stop sign, so he immediately moved two steps to the side.
"Hello sir, can I ask you for directions?" Lu Yao said politely.
"Okay, where are you going?" Xiao Jiu replied briskly.
"I'm going to the Pine Forest District, which road should I take at the intersection ahead?" Lu Yao asked.
Xiao Jiu's eyes rolled around, and he thought in his heart: It turns out that this guy is a road blind?
He saw the mole and Xiao Wu on the opposite platform looking at this side, he wanted to make a gesture to ask the mole, but he was afraid that Lu Yao, who was very vigilant, would see the clue. So he raised his right hand to wipe the rain from his face and asked, "The two buses just now were to the pine forest area, and there are signs in front of the car and on the body, don't you see them?"
"I saw it, but I didn't want to get in the car, I wanted to walk there. Lu Yao replied.
Xiao Jiu sneered in his heart: Silly hat, you don't have the money to take the car, right? Seeing that you are about to fall when you stand, and you have to walk to the pine forest area, it is estimated that you have not yet left the customs, so you will lie down. Since you're road-blind and don't have any money, and we're still spying on you, I'm going to just play tricks on you. It should be fun to see how stupid you are. Hey, hey, hey!
He decided and said seriously: "If you want to take a shortcut, just keep walking along Shahe Road to the end, and then climb a mountain to reach the checkpoint." However, the road is still under construction and is not easy to walk on rainy days. Especially walking on mountain roads, it can be a bit dangerous.
I suggest you take the Binhai Road, turn right at the intersection in front, go to the traffic light and turn left, and then turn right after three traffic lights to Yunhai Avenue. You go 30 kilometers west to the Xinzhen checkpoint, and after the checkpoint you are in the pine forest area. Although this road is a little farther, it is easier to walk, it is all a big road, and there are sidewalks, you can choose for yourself!"
