Chapter 181: The Young Man Who Ran Away
On the mountain, which is covered with redwoods, there is a huge waterfall cascading down the mountain. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough it is relatively remote, it is the only large waterfall that tourists come here all year round to visit. and a deep pool under a waterfall, as well as a clear stream, which is full of green trees all year round.
The nearest city is Salt Lake City, but it's eighty-six miles away. This town is relatively remote. However, it also has something to do with the fact that the town is located in a relatively remote mountainous area. But there's a highway that goes straight to Salt Lake City.
The town has several streets, three hotels, and even a cinema. But it's for the tourists. People in small towns rarely go to the cinema. The whole town has a population of more than 8,300, which is the size of a town. The mayor here is a woman in her thirties who is also a teacher.
Because there is a primary school and a secondary school here. Of course, you can also go to a boarding school in Salt Lake City. There are three buses passing through here every day. The earliest was to Salt Lake City at 7:20 a.m., and then the latest was to leave Salt Lake City at 5:30 p.m. to town. However, very few people take the bus, and occasionally students attending Salt Lake City boarding high schools do.
Because of the waterfalls and the environment, there has been a steady stream of immigrants in the last decade. Especially the rich people from Salt Lake City. They would rather drive more than an hour to and from Salt Lake City and the town every day to stay here. Especially the location close to the foot of the mountain and also close to the waterfall is the most popular.
This is one of the most populous towns in Utah, and it is mainly the result of constant immigration. The size of the town is also increasing, and more than 80 percent of the population of the town is inhabited in the street area of the town, while the rest is scattered in the area at the foot of the mountain. It was a villa area for some of the wealthy, close to a waterfall. Almost the rest of the population is concentrated.
Of course, there are a very small number of people who live in the deeper mountains, or at the foot of the mountains, far from the wealthy areas. It is generally a difficult place to walk on the road. It's all simple roads, and even one-way streets.
The wealthy prefer secluded places, but they are closer to the town. The town is bustling with activity every day, and tourists like to enjoy the waterfall from the mountains and then take a boat down the waterhole to the vicinity of the town, where they can go ashore for a cup of coffee or a meal.
If the feeling is good, visitors may stay for one day and hunt further into the mountains the next day. There are so many turkeys, elk, and rock sheep that are very agile and difficult to catch. Sometimes you'll also encounter tortoises, venomous lizards, and even poisonous snakes.
As the sun began to set, a group of people took a bus to the town. They are tourists after visiting the Great Falls. There were men, women, and children, and they seemed very excited. Then went to a restaurant in the town. They were talking excitedly along the way, and they could be seen through the glass windows of the bar.
"What a damn bunch of outlanders, they've ruined the atmosphere here!" a middle-aged man in a T-shirt grumbled to a fat white man in his fifties at the bar, sipping a drink, "I hate all this, if it was five years ago, everything would have been so wonderful here." ”
"Come on, man. It's not something we can manage, and to be honest, if it weren't for those out-of-towners, my bar would have been closed a long time ago. The fat old man said to the middle-aged man, "So, guys, since all this has begun, learn to accept it all." ”
The middle-aged man stopped talking, raised his glass and was about to drink, when suddenly the door of the bar was pushed open. A white man came in, a young man with blond hair, a little thin in stature. When he came in, he subconsciously looked around, looking very vigilant.
"Hey, young man, what do you have to drink?" said the fat old man to him, "You don't look like those tourists, are you here for the first time?"
"I'm from Salt Lake City. The young man shrugged his shoulders and said, "I heard that there is a big waterfall here, and I want to see it." He said, squeezing out a grin, sitting down at the bar and saying, "I need a whiskey." ”
"Then you won't be able to drive!" the fat old man said, "If you want to see the waterfall today, I promise you won't come back here." You'll miss out on a lot of great shows. Specially for those who want to have a treat, you can have a fun time along with it. ”
"I wonder if there's a hotel over there or something...... I'm talking about the waterfall. The young man said to the boss, "Maybe I can see the waterfall early tomorrow morning, that must be a great feeling!"
"Hey, man, are you hiding from someone?" the fat old man looked at him suspiciously, "We usually have single guests here too, like that one...... However, few people go to the waterfall in the evening, and there are no hotels. He gestured with his eyes to a corner of the bar.
In that corner sat a young man, a dark-haired Asian. He was spreading out a newspaper and reading it, with a glass of beer on the table. Looks like he's been there for a long time.
"Hey, man, he's not a single guest, he's the guy who bought a house here the week before. The middle-aged man said to the fat old man, "But no one knows his name yet." He is a loner and rarely interacts with people. Guy with a quirky personality. ”
"If he's been quiet like this, I'd welcome it, at least not as noisy as those people. The middle-aged man continued, "I like quiet people, whether they're Asian or local. With that, he drank his wine in one gulp, pressed a bill under the glass, waved his hand at the old man, and left.
The blonde young man drank the whiskey from his glass in one gulp, and said to the fat old man, "One more drink, and then I want to go to the other side of the waterfall." As he spoke, he pushed his glass towards the bar.
The fat old man nodded, poured a glass, and said, "You'd better not drive, see the police outside?" They always keep their eyes on the door of my bar, and anyone who comes out of here, if they go to drive, they will stop them." Damn Utah, the drunk driving alcohol level standard in all 50 states in the United States is 0.08%, why is our state 0.05%, damn politicians ......"
"Do you think there's a difference between 0.08% and 0.05%?" Suddenly, a voice came from the side, and as soon as the fat old man looked up, he saw the Asian man, with a strong figure, but his eyes were softer.
"It's none of your business. Young man, do you know that it is rude to come and interrupt when someone is talking?"
"I've heard all the things you say about me here. The young man pointed at him, "It's not a good habit to talk about people behind your back, isn't it? it's even more rude!" he took a few bills from his wallet, put them on the bar, and said, "Good luck, man, I hope your bar will stay open for a long time, and no one will come to your bar to make trouble!
The blond-haired young man watched the Asian leave, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, this person was a little weird. Before he could finish one of his thoughts, he suddenly heard a "bang" and the door of the bar was kicked open. The three men rushed in, and when the young man saw it, he turned around and walked quickly through the door on the other side.
"Stop, don't run—" one of them shouted at the young man.
The young man ran a little faster, and the chasing man suddenly rushed over, but hit a table, and immediately knocked over a waiter's wine tray, and was grabbed by the waiter. Two people from the back rushed to help, and the man broke free and rushed out of the bar. The bar owner whistled as well, and a couple of waiters came out to help.
Some of the drinkers watched the excitement from the sidelines, but were hit by bottles, so they joined the group until finally the police arrived and took all the people involved in the fight away. The fat old man, the owner of the bar, was a little crying without tears. It was really said by the young man.
The blonde young man rushed out the door, just as a car drove out, he quickly waved his hand, the car stopped, he rushed up, banged on the window, and then the window was lowered. A young man's face was revealed, it was the same young Asian who had been in the bar just now. He looked at the blonde young man and unlocked the door.
The blonde young man was about to get into the car, and the chaser who had rushed out of the bar at first rushed over.
"Get in the car, let's get out of here quickly, wherever we want, as long as we can get rid of this guy!" the blonde young man got into the car and hurriedly said to the Asian, "I can pay you, whatever you want! Get me out of here, hurry!"
As he spoke, the man rushed over and tried to reach through the window to catch the young man. But the car drove away with a "sudden" sound, and the man grabbed a void. I turned around and prepared to find my car.
The car sped all the way, and the blonde young man breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his head to look behind, and found that there was still a car chasing after him, so he couldn't help but urge: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't go here, go in another direction, go somewhere else, damn it-"
"You stole someone's stuff?" said the Asian.
"No, no, not at all, I promise, I'm a good man......" said the blonde young man, looking back, "if you're not at ease, I can tell you my name, Glenn Kingsley." Then he turned his head and stretched out his hand to Jia Huan, "It's nice to meet you." ”
"Huan, Jia!" the Asian also held out his hand, and the two shook it and said.
"That's right, why are those people chasing me......" Glenn Kingsley said to Jia Huan.
"No, don't tell me, I don't want to get involved. Those people don't look like good people, and as for why they're chasing you, is it important to me? The point is...... How much money can you give me?" Jia Huan said to him, "That's all my interest, okay, sit tight, I'll help you get rid of that hench in the back!"
As soon as the words fell, he suddenly kicked the accelerator, and the car suddenly detached from the road and sped away towards the side road.
