Chapter 7 Trains
Zhang Jiatian was kicked inexplicably, and his heart was cold for seven or eight minutes, thinking that he was finished this time, but at night, Lei Duli took him on a special train to Baoding as if he was fine.
He cautiously looked at Inspector Lei, who just ignored him. The special train drove very slowly, and after nightfall, Lei Duli lay in the eiderdown quilt nest without saying a word. Zhang Jiatian sat in the restaurant next door for a while, and went to take a nap if he had the heart, but he always felt that there was a heavy heart that he couldn't let go, and he couldn't sleep anyway.
There are dim small wall lamps in the carriage, and everything is a shadow, but it is enough to make people see the road clearly. Zhang Jiatian tiptoed the door into the bedroom, wanting to see if Lei Duli was sleeping, but as soon as he got to the bed, he saw Lei Duli open his eyes.
Lei Duli has always said to sleep and wake up when he wakes up, Zhang Jiatian is used to it, and he was not startled, he bent over with one hand on the head of the bed, he looked at Lei Du ideally, and finally squatted down in front of the bed, in order to make Lei Duli on the bed look at himself.
"Great. He whispered, "I really don't mean anything else by saying that during the day." β
The lower half of Lei Duli's face was buried in the eiderdown quilt, and he spoke in a sullen voice: "I listen, you seem to want to ask me for an official." β
Zhang Jiatian shook his head again and again: "I don't mean that, I don't mean that, you really misunderstood me." I just said casually at the time - I have only been with you for a few days, could it be that because you are very good to me, I am dizzy and want to go to heaven?"
"There are a lot of dizzy people around me, but it's rare not to faint!"
Zhang Jiatian saw that he refused to believe himself no matter what, and he was also anxious: "Whoever loves to be dizzy is dizzy, anyway, it's not me." β
"Really?"
"Really!"
Inspector Lei pulled the quilt down, revealing his whole face: "You swear." β
Zhang Jiatian didn't think about it, and said: "If I lie to the big handsome today, I will die in front of the big handsome tomorrow!"
"If you don't lie today, what about the future?"
"Whether it is today or in the future, one day I deceived you, and one day I was struck by lightning!"
In the dim light, Inspector Lei smiled vaguely, and then said, "I don't think you will learn so quickly. β
He reached out again and patted Zhang Jiatian's head: "This time, I wronged you." I'll compensate you tomorrow. β
Zhang Jiatian shook his head: "I'm not wronged, it's that I can't speak." β
Lei Duli was silent for a moment, and suddenly said again: "I threw Qingzhang in Tianjin." β
Zhang Jiatian was stunned for a moment, and then reacted - no, when he got on the train, he didn't see either the captain of the guard or the guard.
Lei Duli chuckled softly again: "This time I bullied him again." β
Zhang Jiatian laughed with him, but he didn't dare to answer, for fear of saying the wrong thing again.
After Zhang Jiatian reconciled with Lei Duli, he relaxed physically and mentally, walked to the sofa in the living room and fell asleep.
When he arrived in Baoding the next day, he followed Lei Duli into a large military camp this time. He was not afraid of the GIs now, and Inspector Lei was in a meeting with a group of officers in the battalion, and he was idle and had nothing to do, just watching the GIs march in line on the playground. By the time the GIs had finished their drills, the meeting on Inspector Lei's side was over. He ran back to the office in a hurry, but saw Inspector Lei sitting behind a large table, listening intently to Lin Zifeng. Lin Zifeng is Inspector Lei's secretary - Inspector Lei has several secretaries, each performing their own duties, and it stands to reason that they are all useful, but he only looks for Lin Zifeng when he has something. Zhang Jiatian saw it in his eyes, and remembered Lin Zifeng, knowing that he was different, and he must be Lei Duli's confidant.
If he does a good job, he will also be Lei Duli's henchman in the future.
Seeing him coming, Inspector Lei let Lin Zifeng out, then opened the drawer under the table, took out something, and slapped it on the table with a "snap": "Jiatian, give you something." β
Zhang Jiatian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard what he called himβbefore this, Lei Duli had never called him so affectionately. When he saw the "thing" clearly, he was even more surprised.
That thing was a dark pistol!
"Yo!" he stammered for a moment: "Gun?!"
Lei Duli smiled at him: "Do you want to?"
Zhang Jiatian grabbed the pistol as soon as he couldβof course! The pistol was a great treasure. Not to mention actually shooting, just lighting it out is enough to scare people.
Inspector Lei asked again, "Will it be used?"
He clutched the pistol tightly, looked down, looked up, and smiled at Lei Duli: "No, but you will learn it as soon as you learn it." β
Inspector Lei replied, "Nonsense!"
Zhang Jiatian stayed in this military camp for ten days.
In the past ten days, he went to the shooting range to practice shooting whenever he had time, and on the first day, an adjutant next to Lei Duli came over to be his instructor, and in just one day, he learned the adjutant's lifelong martial arts. The next day, the adjutant was lazy and did not come, which was more to his liking, because the adjutant's face was full of impatience, and it was obvious that he looked down on him as a messenger. But he wasn't angry at all - he couldn't tell why he was so detached, and for that adjutant, he actually had the mind that "adults don't remember villains".
On the tenth day, his tired and swollen wrist had subsided, and seeing that his shooting results were beautiful enough, he boldly walked up to Lei Duli and said, "Dashuai, do you have any spare time in the afternoon?"
Inspector Lei asked, "What for?"
"I've been practicing my gun for ten days, and I'm getting a little bit right, so I'd like you to take a look. β
Lei Duli stood with his back to him, looked out the window and was silent for a long time, and finally turned around: "Tomorrow afternoon!"
Zhang Jiatian happily agreed, thinking that tomorrow afternoon would be good. How did he know that Lei Duli turned around and walked in front of him, but said: "Tomorrow afternoon, I will see you shoot the target, and we will leave tonight." β
Zhang Jiatian looked at Lei Duli: "Tonight...... Let's go?"
Inspector Lei continued: "You go out to spread the news, and you say that I will go to the shooting range tomorrow afternoon to watch you shoot the target. β
Zhang Jiatian was originally full of smiles, but when he heard this, the smile on his face gradually closed: "Dashuai, what's wrong? You tell me, I have a good bottom in my heart." β
Thunder waved at him.
He immediately bent down, and listened to Inspector Lei whisper to himself: "I just got the news, there are people here who are going to rebel, we have to leave in advance." β
Zhang Jiatian raised his heart when he arrived, raised his hand and touched the pistol on his waist, he didn't think about it, and said directly: "Don't be afraid, Dashuai! I will use the gun, I can protect you." β
Lei Duli didn't say anything, only patted him on the shoulder.
In the afternoon, Zhang Jiatian showed his face, shook his head and twisted his neck to exercise, and tried his marksmanship with others, so everyone knew that this kid surnamed Zhang was a dog with a belly that could not hold two taels of sesame oil, and the Governor was going to personally inspect his marksmanship tomorrow, so he couldn't sit still proudly and panicked.
In this way, at nightfall, the barracks is a place to go to bed early and get up early, and it gradually becomes quiet as soon as it gets dark. Zhang Jiatian followed Lei Duli into the car, followed by a truck, full of soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition. The group quietly left the barracks, and within a moment, they arrived at the train station.
Zhang Jiatian has been following Lei Duli for so long, and it is the first time he has sat in Lei Duli's car, but at this time, he has no heart to appreciate the appearance inside the car. Inspector Lei sat in the middle, with him on the left, Secretary Lin Zifeng on the right, and Adjutant Bai Xuefeng sitting in the co-pilot seat in front. Lin Bai and the others were both Lei Duli's cronies, Zhang Jiatian held the pistol on his waist with one hand through his clothes, he didn't expect that he could mix into the class of Lin Bai and the others. For a moment, he even wished that a few assassins would descend from the sky and kill him one by one to show Governor Lei. If he doesn't show his hands a few times, he will be sorry for Inspector Lei's love for him.
However, the group got out of the car and got on the train safely, and no assassins fell from the sky.
The train started and clattered all the way to Beijing. Zhang Jiatian put his eyes close to the car window and looked out, and saw that it was dark and dreary, with no starlight on the top and no lights below. Looking back at Lei Duli, he saw that Lei Duli was acting abnormally, guarding a wire bed, but he was not lying down.
Not only did they not lie down, but they also walked back and forth on the ground with their hands behind their backs. Walking and stopping, he raised his head and said to Zhang Jiatian: "Go, find me something to eat." β
Zhang Jiatian hurriedly ran to the dining car. There is always a cook in the dining car, but at the moment it is not a meal, only bread and butter are ready-made. Zhang Jiatian brought these two back, and poured a cup of hot tea for Lei Duli: "Dashuai is hungry?"
Inspector Lei did not answer. Lifting his leg and stepping one foot into the hardwood chair beside the table, he grabbed the bread and took a big bite, then took another sip of hot tea as he chewed. Zhang Jiatian had never seen him eat and drink so roughly, and he was almost dumbfounded. After devouring half of the bread, Lei Duli raised his hand to wipe his mouth, then put down his feet and walked to the bed, bending down and dragging out a large rectangular suitcase from under the bed.
The lid of the suitcase is unlocked, and it opens as soon as it is lifted. Zhang Jiatian took a closer look, and saw that there were five or six long and short guns lined with red silk lining, each of which was equipped with a belt holster. Inspector took off his tweed coat outside, his suit jacket inside, and his woolen vest over his shirt. Zhang Jiatian saw that he meant as if he was going to be shirtless, and hurriedly wanted to stop: "Don't take it off, Dashuai, it's really a little cold tonight." β
Ignoring him, Rador stooped down to pick up a pistol and slung it to himself.
After carrying one and then the second, Inspector Lei tied up his full pistol as if he was about to open a pistol exhibition, and then put his tweed coat back on. The pistol is a heavy thing, Lei Duli usually looks weak and weak, but now he has added dozens of catties to his body, and he is actually doing nothing, tying his coat button with one hand and holding the car window with the other, he probed the glass and looked out, and said while looking: "It's called Bai Xuefeng!"
Zhang Jiatian immediately ran out and called Adjutant Bai Xuefeng over.
Adjutant Bai Xuefeng is usually a steady person, and he came to Lei Duli's side, he saluted, and then stood behind Lei Duli, and also poked his head out, and looked out of the window with Lei Duli.
The two watched silently, only for more than twenty minutes.
After more than twenty minutes, Lei Duli turned his head to look at Bai Xuefeng: "What's the matter?"
Bai Xuefeng seemed to be very confused: "Dashuai, this shouldn't be, I'm personal-"
At this moment, there was a crisp sound from the window glass, and a bullet flew straight between the two of them, and was launched into the wall of the car with Zhang Jiatian's sideburns.
After a moment of silence, Lei Duli shouted and fell down: "What's the matter?"
Bai Xuefeng also protected his head and bent down: "It's not our people! it's an assassin!"
At this moment, the gunfire intensified from far and near, and all the windows were shattered. Zhang Jiatian was so frightened that he panicked, so he heard Lei Duli roaring: "This is an ambush - don't stop the train, hurry up!"
When the words fell, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly sounded in the direction of the front of the car, which shook the three people here. The train continued to move with inertia, rushing into a large ball of fire. Zhang Jiatian watched the fire roll in through the open car window with the wind. The tongue of fire was huge and dazzling, and it licked the three people on the ground, Zhang Jiatian threw himself on Lei Duli without thinking, and at the same time felt a gust of hot wind blowing on his head. Squinting and turning his head to look over, he saw that the curtains and curtains in the car were all burning, and the carriage had become a square fire cage!
At this moment, Lei Duli under him arched hard and forced him down from above. Getting up and grabbing him with one hand, Inspector Lei slammed open the door and plunged headlong into the narrow hallway outside the bedroom.
There was fire everywhere in the aisle, but at the end of the aisle was the car door. Lei Duli let go of Zhang Jiatian and ran to the car door, Zhang Jiatian stumbled after him and found that he had opened the car door. The speed of the train did not slow down in the slightest, and the wind rushed in, and Inspector Lei held the door in one hand and a pistol in the other. Turning his head to look at Zhang Jiatian, he immediately jumped out.
Outside the car, except for the firelight and the night, the situation under the train track is not clear at all. Zhang Jiatian was very scared, feeling that he was simply gambling with his life, but because there was a fire behind him, and Lei Duli in front of him had already jumped down, so he closed his eyes and thought: "Twenty years later, I will be a good man again, and I will die if I die!"
