Early the next morning, Lin Zhao sent Qin Muyang to the airport, and seeing Qin Muyang enter the boarding gate, Lin Zhao reluctantly turned around.

It was just seven o'clock when he returned home, Lin Zhao didn't go back to bed to sleep, but went to the study to read a book for a while.

Although he works for a foreign company, he doesn't have much exposure to English. He didn't want the English he had studied for so many years to be put on hold, so he would take on some translation work from time to time.

Lin Zhao has been trying to work as a translator since his freshman year, and over the years, he has accumulated a certain amount of experience and contacts. His accurate translations and his ability to never delay are very popular with his clients.

has a stable and well-paid job, and can also pick up some translators from time to time to earn extra money, in this society where "college students are unemployed after graduation", Lin Zhao is a good mix.

Lin Zhao also thought so in the past, he didn't have any big pursuits, it was enough to live a good life. And now he can not only get by, but also live a very nourishing life, so he feels very satisfied.

But after the incident of "Chaoyang was divested", his thinking suddenly became different. He wanted to become stronger, strong enough to be able to stand side by side with Qin Muyang. In this way, when Qin Muyang's company encounters a crisis, he can help him through it with his own strength, instead of being powerless on the sidelines.

Of course, Lin Zhao would not give birth to this idea just because of Qin Muyang. In this age when youth is capital, what young person does not have a little ambition?

In the past, Lin Zhao's ambition was pressed to the corner by reality, and now, his ambition has been stimulated by reality.

The alarm clock rang "jingle bell", Lin Zhao closed the book, got up to pack his things and prepare for work.

Before he has enough strength to realize his dream, he has the ambition of God, and he has to go to work honestly first.

Walking on the road, Lin Zhao received a text message from Qin Muyang: "I've arrived." ”

Lin Zhao smiled and replied: "It's good to arrive, work hard, and make a full banquet for you after the negotiation is completed!" ”

Qin Muyang replied with a "Okay, I'll wait."

Lin Zhao didn't reply again, although he couldn't wait to chat with Qin Muyang for a day and a night, but now was obviously not the time to chat.

After arriving at the company, Lin Zhao was directly called to the office by Xiao Wenxuan. Xiao Wenxuan took a document to him and asked him to send it to a factory in the suburbs.

"That place is a bit out of the way, you can call it, and the fare company will reimburse you. You won't be able to come in the afternoon, so I'll give you a holiday. ”

You can go out for a ride, and you can have a half-day off, Lin Zhao couldn't ask for it: "Okay, I'll go right away!" ”

On the road, Lin Zhao found that it was not an easy job, the taxi walked for almost two hours to get to the factory, Lin Zhao hurriedly got out of the car, squatted on the side of the road and vomited.

Although he has been getting his driver's license for a few years, the problem of motion sickness has not improved at all. He usually sits in the co-pilot, but today he sat in the back in order to sleep for a while.

As a result, the section of the road near the suburbs was full of potholes, which woke him up from the bump, and directly turned his breakfast upside down.

After spitting up, Lin Zhao's mouth was very uncomfortable. But there was no water around him, so he couldn't rinse his mouth if he wanted to, so he could only endure it.

He gave the taxi driver the fare and said, "Master, you wait for me for a while, I will get down immediately after delivering the things, and take your car back." ”

The driver came by navigation and didn't expect this place to be so far away. Originally, he was quite unhappy to come to such a place, but when he heard that Lin Zhao was going to sit back, he immediately smiled and responded: "Okay, okay, I'll wait for you here." ”

Lin Zhao originally thought that things would be very fast, but who knew that it took him more than half an hour to get things done. When he came out, there was no sign of the taxi outside the door.

Lin Zhao looked around, and there was no shadow of a taxi in this area. He still didn't give up, and asked the security guard at the door: "Master, there was a taxi here just now, do you know where to go?" ”

The security guard told him: "The car just left a few minutes ago. ”

Lin Zhao finally gave up, walked to the side of the road, and waited for other cars. He waited for a while, not to mention a taxi, not even a bicycle.

Just now, the security guard poked his head out and shouted to Lin Zhao: "There are usually no taxis here, if you want to go back, you can only go to the front to take the bus." ”

Lin Zhao thanked the security guard and walked forward according to the path he pointed out.

After walking for about ten minutes, he finally saw the legendary bus "stop sign" - the so-called sign was gone, only an iron rod was still stuck there. The reason why Lin Zhao could recognize this as a stop sign was because there was a group of uncles and aunts waiting for the train.

Lin Zhao asked the uncles and aunts where the bus went, and the answer was a place name he had never heard of.

Just then, the bus came, and it looked tattered, as if it was going to fall apart at any moment.

The bus runs every hour, Lin Zhao didn't dare to delay, and followed the uncles and aunts on the bus.

He sat down and thought, "Wherever it goes, I'll get out of the car when I get there."

Not long after getting on the bus, Lin Zhao received a message from Qin Muyang: everything went well.

The bus was more bumpy than a taxi, and Lin Zhao wanted to text back, but he was so bumpy that he couldn't type at all. He turned off the text message and went straight to the phone.

As soon as the phone was connected, Lin Zhao asked happily: "Have you negotiated the investment?" ”

Qin Muyang replied, "Well, it's almost. ”

Lin Zhao asked again: "Then aren't you going to be able to come back in the afternoon?" ”

Qin Muyang said: "Not in the afternoon, there is something to do in the afternoon." ”

Lin Zhao said: "It's good that things go well, and it's okay to come back later." ”

Qin Muyang let out an "um" and asked him, "Where are you?" Why is it so noisy? ”

When Lin Zhao heard this, it was like a switch had been turned on, and he "crackled" and told his experience in the morning.

"You know what? This broken car is still 666 Road. With such an auspicious number, why is it reluctant to match a better car! Lin Zhao complained.

Qin Muyang smiled over there: "Let's go first, and get off where there is a taxi." ”

Lin Zhao responded, and the two chatted about other things.

The two buses looked dilapidated, but there were quite a few people riding on them. When Lin Zhao finished calling, he found that the car was already full of people.

There was a trembling old man standing opposite Lin Zhao, Lin Zhao looked at the middle-aged man sitting in that position indifferent, and called the old man over.

The old man sat down in Lin Zhao's place and thanked him repeatedly.

It may be that Lin Zhao looks very honest and reliable, but the old man somehow pulled him to chat.

According to the old man, he had three sons, but none of them were good.

The eldest son is a strict wife, who listens to his wife for everything, and doesn't care about his parents at all. The second son is idle, and he still doesn't have a formal job, let alone raising his parents, and it's okay to ask his parents for money. The third son is shrewd and capable, and he went to college and settled in the city, but he forgot his roots, refused to return to his hometown, and did not contact his parents much.

"My wife fell while working some time ago and broke her leg. The eldest sent people to the hospital and left, the second child has not shown up so far, and the third child has come back with a few hundred yuan. The old man grabbed the bag in front of him and said with a wry smile, "A single operation can't cost tens of thousands, hundreds of dollars?" The picture is gone. ”

Lin Zhao listened to the old man's words, and his heart was full of emotion. It is said that raising children to prevent old age, but sometimes, the son is unreliable.

"She's going to have surgery today, so I'm going to scrape together enough money to pay for the operation......" The old man's voice was a little choked, "I don't expect them to come up with much money, at least show up and care......"

Lin Zhao couldn't comfort people, so he could only say dryly: "Grandma Ji is a natural person, the operation will definitely go well." ”

The old man softened his emotions and said, "Your parents are still blessed to have given birth to a good child who is so sensible as you." ”

Lin Zhaoxin said, in fact, I am not sensible at all, which broke my father's heart. But he just smiled and didn't speak.

The two chatted all the way, and the old man's destination arrived. There were too many people in the car, and Lin Zhao was afraid that the old man would not be able to squeeze out, so he helped him open the way in front.

Seeing the old man get out of the car, the moment the car door closed, Lin Zhao saw someone snatch the bag in the old man's hand and run away......

There was still an hour left at the agreed time with the general manager of Haitong, and Qin Muyang had nothing to do, so he took out his mobile phone and planned to chat with Lin Zhao for a while.

At the top of the phone, a bunch of push news is displayed. Qin Muyang didn't even look at it, he forked it one by one.

"The bus suddenly spontaneously combusted while driving, and the passengers on the bus desperately cried for help." Qin Muyang's crossed hand paused, and clicked into the news.

The news wrote: At noon today, bus No. 666 in City C suddenly ignited on the way. The driver abandoned the car and fled, and the passengers in the car had no way to call for help, crying loudly "help". Some netizens passed by and filmed a scene that made people tremble.

The following is a video, Qin Muyang clicked on the video, only to see that the bus quickly turned into a raging fire from the small fire at the beginning. Several people escaped from the car, but many more were trapped in the car. They cried and shouted, their voices sharp and desperate.

Qin Muyang saw that the passengers by the window were banging the closed window. Unfortunately, the glass of the window was too strong, and they slapped hard, but the window did not move.

The fire spread, engulfing the few people little by little. They were no longer able to resist, so they could only lie on the window in resignation, and their eyes were unwilling to look out of the window......

Black smoke filled the bus above, obscuring the bright midday sun.

"You know what? This broken car is still 666 Road. With such an auspicious number, why is it reluctant to match a better car! ”

When he quit the news, what Lin Zhao had said before suddenly appeared in his mind, Qin Muyang's brain "buzzed", and his heartbeat suddenly stopped. He took a deep breath and dialed Lin Zhao's phone with trembling hands.

The few seconds that waited for the phone to be connected seemed to be as long as a century, Qin Muyang held his breath, and finally the phone was connected, but it was not Qin Muyang's familiar "beep-beep-beep" voice, but a cold "Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off......

Qin Muyang's hand trembled even more, he pressed back, and called Xiao Wenxuan again. As soon as the phone was connected, he couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Xuan, has Lin Zhao returned to the company?" ”

"No, I gave him an afternoon off." Xiao Wenxuan was a little strange, "What's wrong?" Is something wrong? ”

Qin Muyang closed his eyes and his voice trembled: "He ...... on the No. 666 bus"

————

Qin Muyang had never felt that time had been so long, and as soon as he got off the plane, he immediately turned on his mobile phone and called Xiao Wenxuan.

"Brother Xuan, how's the situation?"

Xiao Wenxuan's voice was a little heavy: "I went to check, and there was no Xiao Zhao among the injured people." There are only two cases left, either he is not in the car or ......"

Xiao Wenxuan didn't continue, but Qin Muyang knew what he was going to say next: Or, he was on the list of the dead.

Qin Muyang wanted to tell himself that Lin Zhao was not in the car, but Lin Zhao's uncertain whereabouts and turned off his mobile phone were ruthlessly confirming something to him.

hung up the phone, and a WeChat message suddenly popped up on Qin Muyang's mobile phone. When he saw the sender's name, he was so ecstatic that he almost cried out!

- I wanted to get out of the car, but there were so many people in the car that I couldn't squeeze out! I'm going to sit right at the terminal and see who's squeezing me!

The sending time of WeChat was a few hours ago, and Qin Muyang's side delayed the display.

From heaven to hell, it was nothing more than that, Qin Muyang was swept away by overwhelming despair, and his whole person was empty.

The people around him came and went, but Qin Muyang didn't seem to feel their presence. He stared blankly at the unfamiliar faces in front of him, but he didn't know what they were.

The heart has been constricted, constricted, and overwhelming. Qin Muyang clutched his chest and slowly squatted on the ground.

"I've lived in City C for so many years and I've never been on such a broken bus!"

"After the game is launched, you will contract the 666 road and change to a spacious, shiny new car."

"Ouch, this broken car, it hurts my ass. Comrade Qin Muyang, work hard, so that you can afford to buy a good car, and you can walk on mountain roads without bumping your butt. ”

The words that Lin Zhao had said in the morning were still in his ears, and those vivid and vital characters smashed on Qin Muyang's heart one by one, smashing his heart into a blur.

It hurts, it hurts. Qin Muyang gritted his teeth, but what he wondered was whether Lin Zhao had also experienced such pain.

When he was consumed by the fire little by little, when he shouted for help but no one could save him, did he also suffer like this?

The world in front of him suddenly shook, and at the last second of losing consciousness, Qin Muyang thought:

Since he was destined to lose, why did he let him be reborn in the first place? 166 Reading Network
