Chapter 44: I'm here to be slaughtered

The night before the Easter holidays, Vera's mother led An Feng and Scarlett to London, and handed An Feng over to the new temporary guardian in front of the regional counselor of the exchange agency. After the handover ceremony, Vera's mother led Scarlett to say goodbye. They will fly to Cannes to begin their journey. On An Feng's side, after the district counselor said goodbye, a phone call came in.

The boarding dad went over and grabbed the phone, and a man's voice on the phone said, "Five minutes." ”

The temporary dad blurted out, "What five minutes?" ”

There was only a blind tone left on the phone.

Temporary dad hung up the phone, looked at An Feng who was standing next to a pile of luggage, and asked in surprise: "Do you know what this means?" On the phone, a stranger only said two words: five minutes ('five minutes' is two words in English). ”

An Feng smiled stupidly and said nothing.

The temporary father was stunned for a moment, perhaps thinking that An Feng was too young to ask anything, so he decided to continue waiting. The temporary mother walked over and hugged the temporary father, and the two hugged An Feng, who was still standing at the door without saying a word. After a while, she was a little curious why An Feng didn't travel with Vera's mother, and asked several questions in a row without getting answers, and was about to continue to try to pry An Feng's mouth open when the doorbell rang.

The courier brought an envelope, and the temporary father poured out a stack of cash from the envelope - six thousand pounds. This is the temporary dad's payment.

When the temporary father finished counting the money, An Feng spoke for the first time, and he asked in a thick Japanese accent, "Can I go?" ”

Exchange agencies do not have strict vetting of temporary host families, and basically, they are recognized as long as they are recommended by the host family. Sometimes, if a boarder can talk to his or her parents, he or she is free to choose to stay with his or her classmates or a friend's house. Vera's mother was more at ease with An Feng, so she did not investigate in detail the temporary host family An Feng chose, in fact, the parents of this temporary host family were not responsible people.

Of course, they were carefully selected by Steven, charged 10,000 pounds, signed to accept An Feng's temporary overnight, paid 60% before the event, and made up the balance afterwards. The condition is to let An Feng move freely, and now that the money is in place, An Feng is free.

The temporary father handed over An Feng's travel passport: "Of course you can, but ...... Didn't someone pick you up? With so much luggage, can you take it? ”

Originally, there was another responder who would come to the temporary host family to pick up An Feng, but that was Plan A......

"There is a change in the plan", An Feng replied calmly: "Can you call a taxi for me?" ”

"Absolutely!"

When a child takes the subway or train with a lot of luggage, the conductor will be surprised and remember the image of the little man. But taxis are niche, passengers and drivers are one-on-one, and even if the image is remembered, it is not widely spread. What's more, the temporary father came forward to call for a rental, which is simply a common phenomenon, so An Feng did not change to other vehicles halfway, and came directly to Han Zhiyan's London apartment.

At this time, Han Zhiyan had not yet arrived, An Feng sat alone in the dormitory, sorted out what he had brought with him, put what he didn't use into the cabinet, and packed what he needed to carry - in fact, all he needed to carry was a small bag, which contained an Iridium phone, a GPS, a few magazines and a map, some chocolates, and $200,000 in cash.

At midnight, Han Zhiyan called, and her tone was hurried: "Are you ready, are you here now?" Hurry up to the airport. ”

An Feng was surprised: "I'm in your dormitory, what are you doing at the airport now?" ”

"Oops, Kane, we're on vacation and we're wasting precious time on the way back and forth, and I can't bear to. Come on, we'll go straight from the airport......"

This unreliable flight attendant still expects you to carry your luggage, but fortunately she doesn't have much luggage.

An Feng hung up the phone, dialed Argyle's phone again, and greeted: "Let's go, you go to the airport now, we will meet in front of Gate Three." ”

Carrying his schoolbag, An Feng took a taxi like going to a fellow scholar, with just the right amount of happiness and desire, and with a look of anticipation - during the Easter holiday, there were many children like An Feng who went to the same school, so An Feng came to the vicinity of the airport without attracting attention, and then transferred to the subway to enter the airport. Then find Argyle, who has a series of dementia.

Argyle didn't have much luggage, and he had a normal school bag on his back, which barely contained anything.

Han Zhiyan, who was dressed as a flight attendant, was very conspicuous in the hall, and Han Zhiyan was startled when she saw the tall Argyle, but at this time, Argyle had already completed plastic surgery, and there was a lot less vicious in her appearance, which increased a little more honesty, and she looked silly when she smiled. Han Zhiyan, who was 1.65 meters tall, looked up at Argyle's forehead and marveled at Argyle's height: "This kid, why does he grow so tall?" Fengfeng, how old is he this year? Is there 1.8 meters? ”

Argyle's height is growing extremely fast, he is growing taller all the time, and now he is 1.9 meters...... But that's not the point. "Sister Han, this is my traveling companion Argyle, he is so big, I will go out with him, you should rest assured, right? I'm going to go with Argyle to the streets and take some photos of people – this is the Easter lesson we have in school. ”

Han Zhiyan did not pause when she spoke, she quickly led everyone to the ticket gate, stood at the window and hesitated, An Feng gestured with his eyes, Han Zhiyan reluctantly took out her credit card to pay for the ticket, and while waiting for the ticket to be issued, she asked: "How is the security in Dubai?" ”

"It's too good", An Feng replied: "After the thief in Dubai is caught, he has to chop his hands, so no one dares to steal in Dubai, and no one dares to pick up the money when it falls on the ground, for fear of being slandered as a thief." ”

Han Zhiyan took the ticket handed out by the window and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, with such public security, you can rest assured that you can walk in the streets and alleys, but ...... Why should you go it alone? I don't know Arabic, and it's not convenient for me to go out by myself, so why don't I accompany you? ”

Han Zhiyan is a warm-hearted person, and always has been. She was sometimes a little heartless and motherly in love, but An Feng was not worried that her enthusiasm would disrupt the situation, and he began to introduce the Dubai Mall, Dubai Harbour, and the excitement of Dubai...... so that Han Zhiyan couldn't interject at all.

When she showed her flight attendant license, the three of them entered the waiting hall directly from the entrance of the flight attendant passage, and there was no record of An Feng's entry and exit at the customs.

While waiting for the plane, An Feng opened his backpack and counted out $20,000 from it and handed it to Han Zhiyan.

"Sister Han, how much is the ticket? I'm a kid, and just now at the ticket booth, it would feel weird for me to pull out my credit card. I think it will be like this in the future, all the expenses in the future will be paid by Sister Han, my sister will keep an account, and we will go back and settle. Here is 20,000 US dollars, Sister Han has ten days of leave, and the honorarium is 10,000 US dollars, which I paid in advance. With this money at the bottom, Sister Han can play happily. ”

Han Zhiyan came forward to buy a plane ticket, and An Feng's credit card had no consumption record.

Tilting his head and thinking about it, An Feng added: "Dubai has a 'Mumbai three-day tour' project, and if Sister Han finds Dubai boring, she can go to Mumbai to play." Anyway, 10,000 dollars is enough. Sister Han, adults play differently than children, we are doing homework, we need to investigate in detail, and then write a paper, so we don't play with Sister Han. ”

This can be regarded as an answer to Han Zhiyan's question just now.

Argyle smiled stupidly as usual, not saying a word. Han Zhiyan felt sorry in her heart, but she was polite repeatedly, but unfortunately she couldn't resist An Feng's will after all......

At this time, Dubai did not have the world's first seven-star hotel, the world's tallest skyscraper, and the world's largest indoor ski resort, but it was still the Middle East oil trading center and gold trading center, and it occupied the position of the Middle East trade center for hundreds of years, and its prosperity can still make people linger.

Han Zhiyan's holiday started the next day, and this day was also the starting day of the Easter holiday, but because everyone left overnight, An Feng had one day to accompany Han Zhiyan to familiarize himself with Dubai. Swimming pools with blue skies and clear waters, luxurious shopping venues, as well as various entertainment venues, competition venues, etc., make people linger.

In the Chinese area near Deranamfu Road, Han Zhiyan saw that the Chinese women on the street were wearing cheongsams when they went out, and the whole street was filled with the atmosphere of the Republic of China, and couldn't help but see Hunting Heart: "Fengfeng, how about I say I wear a cheongsam?" ”

An Feng shrugged like an adult: "Sister Han, why don't we live here." You don't have a problem with your language when you live here, and you can still find a travel companion at will? ”

"Okay, good", Han Zhiyan cheered. But An Feng's next sentence made Han Zhiyan feel a little depressed: "Sister Han, the temperature here is getting higher and higher, and the locals' films are stored in the refrigerator, if you take a photo, remember to rush out quickly......"

"You...... Are you going to break up with me here? Han Zhiyan heard the meaning of An Feng's words.

An Feng pointed to a hotel on the side of the road: "That's it." Sister Han, you live here, open two rooms, one room in my name. I'll go find the guide first, and before I come back, Sister Han will just walk around here? ”

"Cut, tell you about the privacy that circulates among a flight attendant - Chinese people shopping overseas, don't go to a Chinese store, otherwise it will be 'a fellow deceiving a fellow countryman, with tears in his eyes'" Han Zhiyan was relaxed, her eyes rolled to look around, and said: "Go to a foreigner store to buy something, so people want to lie to you, and you don't understand the language." So it's no problem for us to stay here and want to shop nearby...... Hehe, foreigners don't know that Chinese people have no way to complain, here, everyone knows. ”

Han Zhiyan decisively entered the hotel and opened the room, handed one of the key cards to An Feng, and said in his mouth: "Fengfeng, you pay attention to safety......

Finally saying goodbye to Han Zhiyan, who kept chattering, An Feng led Argyle to wander leisurely on the street, and happened to meet a Chinese taxi driver, An Feng stepped forward and shouted in fluent Arabic: "Hi, hello." Uncle driver, I heard that there is an air tour here, and he said that he drove into the air by private jet to take people to overlook Dubai...... Uncle driver, do you know the location? ”

The Chinese driver looked An Feng up and down, and asked in Cantonese, "Where is the little pot friend from?" ”

An Feng looked at the other party blankly, and made a look of incomprehension - he couldn't understand Cantonese, he only knew that the other party was speaking Cantonese.

The Chinese-American driver changed his language and asked in English, "Japanese?" Korean? Taiwanese? ”

An Feng shook his head and greeted Argyle in a pure London accent: "Forget it, this person doesn't know what we asked, let's change it." ”

"I know, I know," the Chinese driver blurted out in Cantonese, but he immediately came to his senses and said in Arabic: "I know where it is, haha, if you ask others, they don't know." I've been here since I was eight years old, and I speak Arabic very well, and I know where you can ask me about the neighborhood. The child is Taiwanese, right? Haha, Taiwanese who don't know Cantonese? ”

Because of the lack of luggage, An Feng and Argyle are like tourists wandering around the streets at the moment, only carrying small schoolbags and jumping on the taxi. The taxi went all the way, the driver kept talking and asking questions all the way, An Feng hummed and chirped, and the arrogance of a rich young master seemed to disdain to answer the other party's questions.

The taxi pulled An Feng directly in front of a twin-engine propeller plane, and the Chinese driver greeted him in a friendly manner: "Hi, Abdullah, I'm here for you......

Carrying An Feng on his back, the Chinese driver made a covert gesture to count the money. An Feng saw the driver's movements through the rearview mirror of the car, he pretended not to know, and stepped forward to ask the pilot about the flight fare...... Well, it's a pair of scam pairs.

The Chinese driver had a bad track record, and there were previous complaints from travelers about price gouging, but in the end, there was no substantiated evidence. Lawyer Steven tried his best to find his complaint record on the local tourism complaint record, and An Feng found him on the street and was bent on being slaughtered.

As expected, the pilot offered a high price, and the Chinese driver received a kickback behind his back, and An Feng pretended not to know about it. Waiting to sit on the plane, after the plane took off, An Feng pretended to be interested and filmed around, and when the pilot was about to turn around and return, An Feng arrogantly asked: "Fly around again, I haven't seen enough." ”

Abdullah looked dissatisfied: "Kid, you only paid for one lap of flight." ”

An Feng pretended to be suddenly aware, pointed to the desert at the end of Dubai, and shouted excitedly: "The desert, it's a big desert, it's so spectacular, where to go, where am I going to shoot the sunset...... How much? ”

Abdullah was unrelenting: "Three thousand dollars, child, where will I send you for three thousand dollars." ”

$3,000 is enough to fly from Dubai to Hong Kong and back from Hong Kong.

An Feng pretended to be in a hurry to tear open his backpack, and "accidentally" the banknotes spilled out, and more than 100,000 yuan banknotes were scattered in the cabin. Then An Feng picked up the banknotes even more hurriedly, and replied very boldly: "No problem, I'll give you three thousand dollars." ”
