Chapter 1 Tonight's Passengers

Next Chapter

The night was quiet, and it was still ten minutes before twelve o'clock in the morning, and tonight's night seemed much cooler than usual. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info it was a midsummer night in July, but Andrew felt that it was a little cold tonight.

Leaning back in the driver's seat and looking up at the top, Andrew was waiting for tonight's guest.

The minutes ticked by, and when the bell tower not far away rang the bell at twelve o'clock in the night, the door of the back seat of the car was opened.

A female passenger wearing a long white dress with her hair loose gets on the bus.

One moment there was no one outside the car, and only his taxi was parked in this open space, but the next moment the female passenger appeared silently, as if out of thin air, without any life. After waiting for the female passenger to enter the car, Andrew sat up straight, then looked at the passenger through the rearview mirror and asked.

"Where are you going?"

"444 Rouge Lane."

"444 Rouge Lane? It's hard to find that place at this point! ”

"444 Rouge Lane!" As if she didn't hear Andrew's words, the female passenger repeated it again, there was no tonal change, every character was in one tone, and the sound of scraping flat seemed to be hard squeezed out of the machine. Due to the repetition of the female passenger, the temperature in the car seems to have dropped a lot!

There is only one destination for female passengers, which is 444 Rouge Lane, as for Andrew? While there are some unavoidable troubles to get to Rouge Lane at this point, he is a taxi driver and can't just refuse passengers' requests. The repetition of the female passenger made Andrew silent, but the silence was only a matter of a short moment, and after a slight pause, Andrew answered.

"The order has been received, but there is one thing that needs to be explained to the guest, this car is only responsible for sending you to your destination, as for what will happen later, this car is not responsible."

That's the rule of the industry, and he has an obligation to explain it to the passengers before the train leaves.

Andrew's words fell, and the female passenger did not answer immediately, but waited for a while before the female passenger replied.

"I know!"

The three cold words floated out of the back seat of the car like this, and the exposed skin at that moment instantly had a layer of goosebumps. Although the chill rubbed the surface of the skin, but this level of cold Andrew had long been used to it, and he didn't care too much about it, but put the handbrake and put it in gear, and then started the car.

When the car started, Andrew habitually glanced through the rearview mirror at the female passenger sitting in the back seat of the car. The long skirt that was originally plain white and attached to the body somehow got wet. The whole dress was attached to the body, the long hair was knotted and scattered on the body, and the tips of the hair were dripping constantly.

Dripping down on the female passenger's knees.

Looking at the water dripping in the car, Andrew's eyebrows were subconsciously frowned, but this frowning was also an instantaneous thing, and soon the eyebrows were loosened, and Andrew's car had already started.

Sending the female passenger to the destination, Andrew did not leave immediately, he answered the female passenger's order, and after seeing the female passenger step into the street, Andrew sat in the car and waited for the passenger to return. The female passenger said that she just went in to find someone and asked for one thing, and she would come back when the matter was done.

Now that the order has been received, of course, it is not complete until the passenger is delivered to the final destination.

I don't know how long I waited in the car, and Andrew, who closed his eyes to recuperate, only took a short nap and closed his eyes a little, and when he opened his eyes again, the time in the car was only five minutes. After returning to his senses, he looked towards the mouth of the alley, where the dim lamps hung on the eaves on both sides of the street, because this was an extremely old street, and the gloom under no one made the street naturally exude a cold atmosphere, and the dim street lamps seemed to have no lighting effect.

Rouge Lane is really not the best place to visit at night.

After waiting for about five minutes, and still not seeing anyone walking out of the dark alleyway, Andrew pulled out a pocket watch from his pocket. It was a pocket watch that could only be seen in the last century, the color of the pocket watch was bright silver, and the surface was embossed with delicate mandalas, and the mandala with flowers and leaves at the same time made people look very strange. Open the pocket watch and look at the hands on it, unlike ordinary hand watches, there are a total of six clock hands of different lengths in this pocket watch, and there are no numbers on the watch, but Andrew who opened the pocket watch and glanced at it understood it.

There was a "snap", which was the crisp sound of the pocket watch when it was closed, and after the pocket watch was closed, Andrew looked at the pocket watch and said.

"I don't think it will come out."

The female passenger he sent seemed impossible to get out of Rouge Alley again, and after looking at the pocket watch, Andrew's heart was already clear. Without any intention of waiting any longer, the taxi started again, and with the steering wheel on, Andrew finally left the treacherous alley.

This was his last business of the night, and Andrew went home after the business was over, took out the key to open the door, and when he pushed open the door and just touched the light switch on the wall, a strange feeling instantly came to his heart. His body froze suddenly, his gaze jumped through the darkness and then shot into a place in the room, and just as Andrew's eyes fell into the room, his hand also pressed the switch of the light on the wall.

The lights hanging from the ceiling flickered a few times, and after about ten seconds of darkness, the living room finally lit up.

illuminated the living room, and also illuminated everything in the living room, but there was a person sitting in the living room that should be empty. There was a woman on the sofa in the middle, her long black hair was tied only with an ink-colored ribbon, and the cheongsam of the same color was worn on her body, and some strange dark lines were faintly embroidered on the fabric with darker threads.

The cheongsam was slit high to her hip bone, and the woman sat on the sofa with her body leaning forward naturally, holding a tarot card in her hand. At this time, the tarot cards are spinning rapidly on the table. If Andrew hadn't known her, it would have been hard to guess what that whirling thing was.

Sitting in the middle of the living room was a bewitching woman, obviously a rare beauty, but when he saw this woman appear in his living room, Andrew frowned unnaturally. Without asking out loud and walking straight to the sofa, he wiped the coffee table and sat down on the one-man sofa next to him, Andrew looked at the woman and asked, "Uninvited, what is it for this time?" ”

The question was not answered by the woman, but she hooked her lips and smiled, her beautiful eyes were still looking at the whirling tarot cards, and the woman said, "Say a number?" ”

"Numbers? A baker's dozen! After a pause, he complied with her request and gave a number, and just as Andrew's words fell, the tarot cards under his fingertips suddenly stopped. The card was facing Andrew, and the woman didn't see it, but the moment the card stopped, the woman said with regret.

"It's a pity, it's fifteen! The fifteen who represent the devil are out of control under desire? Or is it the essence that is hidden under this skin? ”

Speaking the words of the gods, there is always an indescribable mystery on the woman's face, and she has always not liked the smile of a woman, but also because this time the tarot card is occupied by the demon, Andrew opened his mouth and said straight.

"Yin Ge, you shouldn't have come this time just to let me guess the cards."

"It's just a joke, it's not a woman's pleasure to refute other people's face so directly." Laughing and looking at Andrew's indifferent expression, Yin Ge smiled: "But as you said, divination is secondary, and the most important thing today is to catch up with you." ”

"If it's a nostalgic, then it's better to go!" As soon as the words fell, the person had already stood up from the sofa, and saw that Andrew's current posture was very meaningful. He really doesn't like Yin Ge very much, but unfortunately he obviously doesn't care about his dislike Yin Ge, because of Andrew's dislike, he leans back on the sofa, Yin Ge said.

"Is this going to drive me away before I can say a few words? You really don't know how to show yourself as a gentleman as you used to. ”

"It's not that I don't understand, but I'm not happy with you!" replied very naturally, although the words on his lips were a little ugly, Andrew still stopped and went back to the house, then looked at Yin Ge and said, "What do you want to do here?" ”

"I was asked to come from above, tell you something!"

"The boss asked you to come? Can I not listen? ”

"I'm afraid this won't work, what the top means, I don't dare to be resentful, if you are dissatisfied, you can directly skip the level. But you know the temper of the above, they can't understand people. ”

Directly skipping the level to talk to the top, Andrew doesn't have such a masochistic heart, and when Yin Ge's words fell, Andrew's indifferent face finally showed a little crack. But the crack was soon repaired, and he tried to resist the urge to roll his eyes, Andrew said.

"Can't these bosses once in a while not cause trouble to others?" Already with a headache, he stretched out his hand to rub the Qingming acupoint, Andrew asked, "So I asked you to come here this time, for what?" ”

The words of inquiry, with the depression of Yiming, also the words fell, Yin Ge's palms suddenly closed, and the closed palms were seamlessly closed, and when Yin Ge's hand was spread out, there was an extra card in his hand.

It's just that this card is not the main card of the tarot card, but an empty card without words.

Empty cards appeared in front of Andrew, and then the cards changed, and a row of words gradually appeared on the board, when the words on the top should be completely revealed, Andrew's eyes changed significantly.

In an instant, Fang Cai's headache changed to his current interest, Yin Ge said: "How about it, are you interested in this list that I asked me to bring?" ”

"What if I'm not interested in such a troublesome list?"

"Then I can only shoehorn, after all, this is the meaning of the top." shrugged his shoulders helplessly, Yin Ge looked very helpless.

Buying and selling has always been the style of doing things, even if Andrew is not interested, they will take it all, not to mention that this list itself is very satisfying to his appetite. When he raised his eyebrows and then pouted slightly, and after waiting for his lips to pout slightly, Andrew also walked to Yin Song's side, and then pulled the card out of Yin Song.

"I took this list, as for the rest, you know!"
