Chapter 685: The Way Home
Huaguo, Northeast China, a certain border city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was early in the morning, the fog had not yet cleared, and the wind was still a little cold. In such an early morning, most people are still asleep, and only a few people who need to get up in the morning to work will show up in this hazy morning.
At 5:45, at a breakfast stall, two middle-aged couples were setting up tables and chairs, they were about to start a new day's business, they were specialized in breakfast business.
The two of them have long been accustomed to such early mornings, when there is no one around, they come to open a stall.
But this morning, it was a little strange, because they were setting up the tables and chairs, but they saw two people coming out of the foggy avenue. Moreover, because one of them did not have very good legs and feet, and his walk was uneven, he came out so early in the morning, or there was something really important about these two people.
Therefore, the appearance of these two people attracted the attention of the couple, and both couples couldn't help but take a look at the visitor and found that the coat they were wearing was still a very old military uniform style.
The two husbands and wives looked at each other and suddenly understood. These two people are most likely people who fled from a neighboring country.
The two of them live in this area close to the border, and every year, they always see many people fleeing to China from other places. This is already a common occurrence. Therefore, in line with the idea that more is better than less, they don't want to call the police.
I thought that these two strangers in military coats were just two people passing by, and the husband and wife didn't pay attention to it, but they didn't think that these two people walked straight to their stall.
"What's early?" Blue Eagle asked, approaching their stall, probing over, and then pointing to the steamer.
"Oh, we have meat buns, vegetable buns, siu mai, fried dough sticks, egg soup, hot and sour soup, what do you two want to eat?" As soon as the boss heard that the two were here to patronize their business, he greeted them warmly, but the boss looked at the two of them, but he was extremely vigilant.
"Angkor, what do you want to eat?" After listening to the boss's introduction, Lan Ying turned his head and asked Wu Danren. In fact, he didn't see the boss's strange gaze, but he didn't care.
Wu Danren pulled out a chair next to the table more directly, sat down, leaned against the table, and said casually: "It's okay, you can look at it." ”
"Four meat buns, two bowls of egg soup. Blue Eagle thought for a moment and said.
"Eight dollars in total, thank you!" said the proprietress .
Lan Ying took out a ten-yuan Huayuan from his pocket, and his movements were very free. This money is still the money they exchanged for dollars on the Korean Peninsula.
The boss accepted the money, and the proprietress quickly filled a plate of meat buns. They don't have much to do, and although they find the two men from strange backgrounds, they don't intend to ask where they come from. Besides, they are just a small business, as long as these two people are giving them real money, they don't care who the other party is.
As soon as Blue Eagle sat down, the meat bun was brought to the table, and then the proprietress beat the eggs and made egg soup.
After a while, the egg soup was also served, and the hot aroma seemed to be able to mask the smell of the mist in the early morning.
Wu Danren and Lan Ying chatted in low voices while drinking egg soup and eating steamed buns. The two of them have not been together for a long time, but they have shared weal and woe, and they have long formed a brotherly friendship.
"In two days, we'll be back home. ”
"I heard that the security management in the capital of China is very strict, and I can't find a place to live temporarily without an ID card. ”
"Angkor, we can find a few flyovers on the outskirts of the capital and sleep under them. ”
"It was better for us to change our clothes, and the couple at the breakfast shop didn't look us right. ”
"Okay, we still have 30,000 Chinese dollars in cash, which should be enough for us to support us to the capital of China. ”
The two were talking and laughing, discussing their next itinerary, their hearts were full of expectations for returning home, and they also knew that they had to make some changes in dress, although the stall owner and the proprietress did not ask, but they would not fail to understand that it was their own strange attire that attracted the strange eyes of others. These two couples will see them that way, and so will the others.
Wu Danren and Lan Ying finished breakfast, stood up and left. Their first step was to change into the clothes of ordinary Chinese people. Fortunately, their appearance is not peculiar, and Huaguo is a multi-ethnic country, as long as they change their clothes and talk less, it is estimated that no one can tell whether they are Huaguo or not.
Seeing that the two of them got up to leave, the proprietress still said to the two as usual, "Welcome to come again next time", and then only used her eyes to send the two away, and then began to clean up the table.
After Wu Danren and the others left the breakfast stall, because it was still early, most of the shops on the main road were not open, so Wu Danren and Lan Ying had to wander around for a while. It wasn't until about seven o'clock that some small shops opened.
Wu Danren and Blue Eagle picked a general clothing store and bought a suit each, as well as new shoes. When they put on new clothes, they threw away the old clothes at will.
After changing into new clothes, they went to the store next door, bought a backpack, and then went to a commissary, where they packed a lot of food. Huaguo is a densely populated country, full of people, most of the ordinary animals are also owned, and the others are protected animals. They don't want to break the law and alarm the law enforcement agencies, and they can't hunt in the wild at will like before.
At eight o'clock, the two of them stood on the side of the road energetically with a travel map of China in their hands, looking for a taxi that was willing to take a long distance.
Because the real-name system is required for plane and train ticket purchases, Wu Danren and his family do not consider those two means of transportation. Of course, they didn't pick a long-distance bus either, there was a manager at the long-distance bus station, they didn't have an ID card, and they didn't want to enter the station. However, it was quite far to the capital, and they were not sure that there were taxi drivers willing to go, so Wu Danren and the others planned to take a taxi, city by city.
"Master, can you go a long way?" asked Blue Eagle as he stopped a taxi and turned to the driver in the driver's seat.
"Where to go?" the driver asked.
"Are you going to the capital?" asked Blue Eagle.
"Dude, you can fool me......" the driver complained.
"Hehe, just kidding, are you going to Yangcheng?" asked Lan Ying.
"Let's go now?" the driver hesitated.
"Master, you make an offer, we're in a hurry. Blue Eagle said with a smile.
"A thousand dollars, but I'll charge first. The driver said.
Blue Eagle went straight into the window and stuffed ten big red bills into the driver.
"Okay, I've taken this job, do you have any luggage? No luggage, let's get in the car." The driver took a thousand and said with a smile.
Blue Eagle turned around and smiled at Wu Danren.
Wu Danren walked over and sat in the back seat with Blue Eagle.
The driver of the taxi was also simple, and as soon as the two got in the car, they drove out of the city.
The taxi driver is a middle-aged man, and along the way, he doesn't talk much, just turns on the radio, which sometimes has music, sometimes stories, and passes a lot of time.
The driver didn't talk much, and Wu Danren and they were happy and had less trouble.
Six hours later, the taxi arrived in Yangcheng.
Yangcheng is also a first-tier city in China, and its urbanization construction is obviously better than that of China's border cities. However, after all, Wu Danren and his family had traveled in the United States, spent time in the Capital Special Administrative Region, and had seen more modern cities, so they were not amazed, but indifferent.
"Two gentlemen, my car can't go into the city. Do you want to go anywhere else?" asked the driver, who stopped at a commercial plaza on the outskirts of the city.
"No, that's pretty much it. Wu Danren thought for a while and said.
After a while, Wu Danren and they got out of the car. The taxi turned around and left, apparently the driver wanted to drive home.
At this time, it was past two o'clock in the afternoon, and there were many pedestrians in the commercial plaza.
Wu Danren and Lan Ying didn't want to hide, the two discussed it, and then entered the square and ate a hamburger meal in a foreign fast food restaurant.
In the afternoon, at half past three, the two walked out of the mall.
"We can't spend the night in Yangcheng, and we can't let His Majesty wait for us. Wu Danren said.
Blue Eagle nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Let's continue on our way." ”
"Find another taxi to get from Yangcheng to the capital. Wu Danren said.
Blue Eagle followed Wu Danren's instructions and quickly went to the side of the road and intercepted the taxi.
However, taxis in Yangcheng are reluctant to go to the capital, and most of them take the initiative to take them to the airport or train station. Wu Danren Blue Eagle was unwilling, so he had to give up.
After stopping more than a dozen taxis to no avail, Wu Danren gave up and shouted, "Blue Eagle, let's change the way." ”
Blue Eagle was also helpless, walked back, and said, "At night, let's go to the train station." ”
Wu Danren heard what he meant, and he wanted to get into the car.
"Good. "Wu Danren has no other good way.
First of all, the two took a taxi directly to Yangcheng Railway Station.
On the way, Wu Danren and Lan Ying used their tablets to log on to the Internet and check the train from Yangcheng to Beijing.
After inquiring about the information, Wu Danren and the others chose the express train after two o'clock in the morning. The reason is the express train, which is more convenient to mix. They are targeting soft seats for express trains. Those soft seats have a certain amount of privacy, which is more convenient for them to act.
When they arrived at Yangcheng Railway Station, Wu Danren and the others did not enter the station, but after another two hours of reconnaissance, they squatted at a southbound exit dispatch station five kilometers away from the railway station. Because every train that comes in and out of the station has to pass through there. Moreover, there are not many guards there, unlike in the railway station, which is full of railway workers and is easily exposed. Wu Danren and the others want to take advantage of the slow movement of the train to climb on the train, and this dispatch station is the best place.
Outside the dispatch station, Wu Danren and the two of them blew the wind for an hour and felt a little bored. The point is, the wind is not small, and it is a little cold.
Wu Danren looked at the time, it was only past nine o'clock in the evening, and there was still a period of time before the early morning. Then, Wu Danren glanced at Lan Ying again, he was clasping his hands and leaning against a wall. Then, Wu Danren looked at his surroundings again.
The Yangcheng dispatching station should be surrounded by an old industrial area, with many dilapidated factories and warehouses.
"Let's find a place to rest and come out at two o'clock to wait for the train. Wu Danren proposed.
"Good. Blue Eagle raised his hand in agreement.
Just a hundred meters away, there is an abandoned warehouse. Wu Danren and the two of them climbed in through the window.
"Someone!"
As soon as he entered the warehouse, Wu Danren's face changed and he said softly.
Blue Eagle was taken aback, it stands to reason that there will be no one in this warehouse.
The inside of the warehouse is big and it's dark inside.
However, they could easily see that there was a small room inside the warehouse, and there was a faint light in the gap of the small room.
Wu Danren wanted to make Lan Ying stop moving, so he went inside to investigate. If there's trouble, it's impossible for them to leave this warehouse. However, it is not easy to find a warehouse, and they will stay for a few hours at most, and if there is no conflict between the two sides, Wu Danren does not want to change easily.
Lan Ying stopped Wu Danren and said softly: "Your injuries are not completely healed, I'll go." ”
Wu Danren nodded when he heard this. He can walk on his feet, but that doesn't mean he's completely fine. Blue Eagle to check the situation is the best choice.
Ten minutes later, Blue Eagle came back with an ugly face.
"Inside was a group of poor children who were kept in a big cage with two adults guarding them. Blue Eagle said.
"Human trafficking?" Wu Danren's face was also ugly. If they encounter such an ugly thing, they can't turn a blind eye and ignore it. Wu Danren was a slave and was once put on the stage and displayed at a price. He was one of the first slaves and the first to turn from a slave to a citizen. Therefore, Wu Danren hates human trafficking very much. He wanted to kill all the slave traders who bought and sold slaves.
"Angkor, shall we leave the warehouse, or shall we rest in this warehouse for a while?" asked Blue Eagle.
"Kill them all!" replied Wu Danren hatefully.
Blue Eagle was stunned for a moment, "What?"
"Kill human traffickers and rescue children. Wu Danren said.
"Yes!" Blue Eagle nodded in response, pulling out a pistol with a silencer from his body and turning back.
Wu Danren took the sword and followed the blue eagle.
Poof!
Two shots, two traffickers, just died silently.
Wu Danren held a sword and stood in front of a large cage, looking at the children inside. Wu Danren counted the twelve children and said, "You are saved, what do you think?
"You're a police uncle! You must be a police uncle!" said an eight- or nine-year-old girl.
"Uncle policeman, help us, we were caught by the bad guys, I want to find my mom and dad...... Woo woo...... "The other child cried.
When Wu Danren heard this, he was a little upset and shouted: "Don't cry! Answer my question!"
"Angkor, let's call the police and let the police in Yangcheng come and pick them up. Blue Eagle said.
"Now we can't call the police, it's going to be a while. Wu Danren said. He can save people, but he is reluctant to reveal his whereabouts.
"Then keep them locked up, and at two o'clock in the morning, call the police again, and make a time difference. Blue Eagle said.
"Okay, that's it. Wu Danren replied.
The twelve children cried for a while, and when they saw that the two "police uncles" did not open the cages, they began to feel frightened again.
Seeing this, Wu Danren had some sympathy. He took out the food they had bought at the commissary from his bag, threw it into the cage, and said, "We are not bad people, we can't send you home or let you out yet...... Stop crying, wait. (To be continued.) )
