Chapter Twenty-Three: The Man in Black
The flying carpet slowly descended, and Bonnie said that she had just learned how to control the direction of the flying carpet, which made Jerry sweat for her.
Luckily, although the whole flight was thrilling, the three of them managed to get close to the rest stop between the trains.
"Let's get ready to land!" Bonnie reminded.
Neil lifted his hand from Jerry's body, presumably realizing that he was safe and sound, and he couldn't help but cry, this time trying to hug Bonnie and cry.
As soon as his hand touched Bonnie's shoulder, he screamed like a pig in the air, and Bonnie kicked him off the flying carpet.
"It's so ruthless—Eliza—you're ruthless!"
Neil rolled down from the flying carpet, which was more than two meters above the ground, heard a muffled thud, and lay motionless on a patch of grass.
Bonnie snorted and reminded Jerry that he was on the ground, and Jerry gave her his train ticket and Neil's train ticket for safekeeping in case something went wrong in a hurry, and Jerry breathed a sigh of relief after Bonnie put the train ticket away.
Although Jerry couldn't see Neil's expression, he only knew that his body must be in pain at the moment, except for a lame leg and a fall just now, it is estimated that it is difficult for him to even stand up.
However, Bonnie is not interested in what Neil's injury is really like.
Especially when Neil lay on the ground and turned his face to yell at them, Bonnie snorted three times in a row, and she opened the suitcase, carefully folded her flying carpet, and packed it into the trunk.
Neil's grumbling comes over and over again, Jerry lifts him up from the ground, and Neil angrily yells to go by himself, complaining that he wants to never sit on Bonnie's bullshit blanket again.
"Jerry, didn't you notice? She's like a monster, her face is like this, like this—" Neil put his arm on Jerry's shoulder and limped along, talking about Bonnie in a low voice.
He imitated Bonnie's angry look and made Jerry laugh. When Bonnie stopped dragging her suitcase and suddenly turned to glare at the two of them, Neil's smile froze, and no one continued to talk.
Jerry thought that Bonnie was going to come over and teach Neil a lesson, but she frowned and sighed helplessly: "Boy!" Glaring at them with disdain, he turned towards a building in front of him.
Jerry helped Neil to follow, and the breeze on all sides blew his neck a little cool, drying the sweat from Jerry's forehead over and over again.
Along the way, Bonnie refuses to talk to Neil again, and doesn't talk to Jerry much later.
However, from this incident, Jerry felt that Bonnie's temper was not lost to any girl.
The only difference is that she always loses her temper with Jerry and doesn't yell like she does at Neil.
Neil's temper is not small, and it took the three of them at least twenty minutes to reach the rest stop, and it actually took more than ten minutes to arrive.
Neil complained about how arrogant and erudite Bonnie was, and now all he wanted to do was get on a comfortable train away from Bonnie Eliza.
Jerry always wanted to laugh when he saw him talking about Bonnie, and at the thought that Bonnie would look back at any moment to see what he had done, he gasped and tried to keep his laughter to a minimum.
When they walked into the rest stop and waited, Jerry hoped it wouldn't be too long, but luckily a moment later, Jerry heard the sound of a train coming.
Neil cheered excitedly, but forgot that his leg was almost dead, and if he didn't get to the school for treatment soon, the injury would not be optimistic.
As usual with the train, when the train stopped, they rushed into the carriage like three flies.
Jerry helps Neil onto the train, but this time Neil insists on going by himself, saying that he doesn't want Bonnie Eliza to look down on him.
Jerry had just gotten on the train when he crashed into a man's arms.
The man wore a black hat that covered the upper half of his face, a large black trench coat, and a pair of white gloves on his hands were particularly conspicuous.
Jerry was about to say sorry when the man hurried around him and headed forward.
"Hello, this is our ticket!" Bonnie was explaining to the ticket inspector why the three of them had suddenly gotten on the bus, but she didn't explain anything about the flying carpet.
When Jerry's gaze returned to the man in black, he found his figure disappearing from sight.
After a while, Bonnie urged, "Jerry, come here, sit here, hurry." Her voice was soft, but Jerry could hear it clearly.
"Oh, here we are!" Jerry was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and turned to see Bonnie sitting in a window seat in front of him waving to him.
Neil sat behind her, tilting his head and snoring from sleep, his mouth still pouting from time to time, as if he was kissing someone in a dream, if it weren't for Bonnie's back to him, Neil would have at least been punched by her.
Jerry came to Bonnie's side, and Bonnie stood up and saw Neil's dreamy appearance, and made a hideous look at Neil in disgust and cursed in disgust.
Jerry didn't hear what she was scolding, and it shouldn't have been a good thing to say.
"Jerry, I'll switch seats with you, I don't want to endure the snoring of a pig along the way, the snoring of, I can't stand people!" Bonnie grumbled angrily and covered her ears. Jerry shrugged helplessly and swapped seats with her.
Jerry sat down and thought to himself: I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, but Neil's snoring came from behind his ears, and it was getting louder and louder.
Moments later, the sound of the train starting, Bonnie buried her face in the book, drowsy, and Jerry didn't know when she took a book out of her suitcase.
At this time, the scenery outside the window was like washing, Jerry looked at it for a while, thinking of what happened these days, there was a feeling that the stone had fallen to the ground, but when he thought of Lao Bugu, the heart that had just settled was suspended.
He sighed, heard a small breath, and Bonnie leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep peacefully.
"Hopefully there won't be any more trouble."
He closed his eyes in prayer, and heard the sound of the train moving, and the small vibration gradually changed to one or two people talking, then to three or five, and finally to a cacophony of voices, like a group of people crowding the vegetable market.
"Jerry, we're almost there, wake up!"
Bonnie's voice reached Jerry's ears, which was quickly drowned out by the whistling of a train, and he opened his eyes to see a crowd of people around him, and passengers preparing to get off the train.
Jerry woke up, he stood up like everyone else, and Bonnie brought her little suitcase and urged him to get off the train quickly.
Jerry answered and pushed Neil, who was sleeping, and Neil woke up and hurriedly got up from his seat: "Jerry, Jerry, give me a hand!"
Bonnie snorted, Jerry shrugged, let the other passengers behind him pass first, reached out to help Neil out of his seat, he grinned at Jerry, limped and let Jerry help him off the train.
After getting off the train, Jerry felt that the air smelled fresh and his mood improved, and he saw several large owls hovering over a nearby square, throwing packages one by one into an open space in the square.
Several men in blue uniforms ran to the parcel with a piece of paper in their hands, and they carried the parcel to a large iron cabinet with many small doors, and they packed the parcel into the small cabinet.
"What are they doing?" Jerry asked Neil.
Neil glanced at him in surprise and said, "That's the workers in the shipping department sorting the packages that the customers are shipping, and they have the shipping number of each package in their hands, and when the owls bring the packages to the square, they will be responsible for loading the packages into the cabinet."
Neil limped along, took a breath, and continued, "When the time comes, the owners of the packages will open the door of the cabinet containing their packages with their own consignment codes and pick up the packages they sent here from somewhere else."
As Jerry listened to Neil explain the role of the owl team and the benefits of this type of consignment, Neil suddenly let go of his hand and limped towards the cabinets.
"Hey, what are you doing!" Jerry shouted at Neil, who didn't seem to hear him and kept walking towards the cabinet.
At this time, Bonnie's voice came from behind him: "Neil must have hired an owl to send his suitcase here this way, you see he didn't have anything with him, Jerry, are you going to get the suitcase too?" Bonnie smiled.
Bonnie's dimples burrowed into Jerry's pupils again.
"I ...... My suitcase—" Jerry scratched his ears and thought about how to explain to her that the suitcase had been in an accident on the way and was thrown away by a large fiery red bird, he saw a huge owl flying towards them with a suitcase in its beak, it was twice the size of the owl flying in the sky.
If he remembered correctly, it was the same giant owl he had last seen outside his uncle Doos's villa.
It was the third time he had seen it.
Boom! With a thud, the owl threw the suitcase at his feet, and Jerry took a step back in fright.
Bonnie looked at him with no less surprise than she did when she saw the flying carpet fly.
"Jerry, that's cool!"
Jerry froze, and Bonnie's exclamation rang in his ears.
"You've sent your suitcase here in a cooler way than we did, and that owl is the biggest I've ever seen, it's so cool!"
When Jerry's suitcase appeared in front of him, and was being carried by an owl, he felt very strange, more shocked.
The owl threw the suitcase down, threw a letter on top of it, and then fluttered its big wings and burst into the sky, disappearing before their eyes almost instantly.
Jerry's trembling hands tore open the letter first. I was so surprised, because the letter reads:
"Don't open your suitcase outside, here is your suit 'Gold Stealth Suit 3000'. I don't want too many people to know about this, but if they do, they will be clamoring for one or borrow an invisibility robe from you, and tomorrow night at 12 o'clock, put that invisibility robe on and wait for me in the black forest near the school. I'll pick you up there. You will receive your first magical training – Rugli. ”
Jerry couldn't hide his surprise. When Bonnie leaned over to read the letter, he quickly put it away, slipped it back into his inner pocket, and grinned at her, "Let's go to school, Bonnie, I can't wait to go to school now!"
