Chapter 227: A Taxi in the Middle of the Night
In the early hours of the morning, on a very remote suburban road in Shencheng.
An old taxi was moving at a constant speed, with two yellow headlights shining on the dim road like the eyes of a wild animal.
With the rise of the Internet, in fact, taxis are becoming less and less, and some of them are robbed by online car-hailing.
But in this remote area, it is very unusual for a taxi to appear in the early hours of the morning.
Inside the car, the radio was playing the midnight broadcast.
"Walk through the tunnel of Mt. Akina, and let me float into your dreams. The sunset fell on my 86 co-pilot, and it wasn't necessarily her dad who drove the Mercedes. ”
"Up the hill and up the tree, a thought. It's half past four in the morning, I'm Takumi Fujiwara, and I owe Ryosuke three hundred. ”
The soothing background music and magnetic male voice are vividly matched.
While making people drowsy, a smile will unconsciously appear on their faces.
But the driver, who was holding the steering wheel at this time, obviously didn't think so.
I saw that the middle-aged uncle frowned, and complained: "What the is this?" ”
I rotated the button on the center console to change the channel to a new frequency band where normal music was played.
His eyebrows and eyes were stretched.
When he retracted his gaze, he glanced at the man in the passenger seat, and a smile appeared on his face again.
"This old brother, you are really lucky, you can still get a taxi in this wilderness in the middle of the night, hahaha."
"The passenger in the back is too, everyone is going to another district, all by the way, by the way, I hope you don't mind. These days, it's getting harder and harder to make money. ”
The driver originally hoped that the two passengers would not mind that he would pull a few more passengers at the same time and make more money.
But when he saw that the two passengers didn't pay much attention to him, the smile on his face stopped awkwardly, and he had to continue to concentrate on driving and stop talking.
Earlier, he was carrying passengers in the back seat, and when he drove on this section of the road, he saw a middle-aged man walking slowly on the right side of the road, his steps a little staggering.
He spoke to the back of him, then pulled the car over, rolled down the window and asked the man if he wanted a ride.
The middle-aged man had a pale face, as if he was not feeling well.
He just asked the price briefly through the window, and then sat directly in the passenger seat of the car, and there was the current journey.
This middle-aged man is none other than the one who fled from Zhang Yueran's hands, the skinchanger.
It would be more accurate to say that it was with the help of the personnel of that organization who hid in the processing bureau that he managed to escape Zhang Yueran's pursuit.
But instead of being happy, the skinchanger felt that he was in danger.
Because of his true colors, he was discovered by that organization.
The two staff members who rushed up to help him cover were just the dead soldiers of that organization, and among the other staff guarding the intersection, there were definitely people who infiltrated that organization!
It is impossible that the organization will put all the "nails" on it in order to save his life.
Among that group of people, there are definitely a few who have not revealed their identities and have recorded his true face.
I have to say, that organization is too terrible and too good at hiding.
The skinchanger knew that the reason why those people were willing to help after learning that he had leaked the information about the existence of this organization was because of his skin-changing ability.
That organization will still need to use this ability in the future, so it won't let him be caught by the people of the Processing Bureau.
But they chose to make a move at the last moment, just to wait for the leather changer to emerge after being attacked by Zhang Yueran.
As long as you remember this appearance, it is equivalent to knowing all the details of the skin changer.
What is the name, what kind of past you have, what your family background is, and where your home address is, you can find it all out.
The reason why the skinchanger has such a high level of danger and has never been successfully arrested is because he knows how to use his abilities perfectly to hide himself.
No one knows what a leather changer really looks like, and no one knows who a leather changer really is.
He can become anyone, with anyone's name and identity.
But right now, that organization probably already knows its own details, and even the eighteenth generation of its ancestors has investigated it.
Thinking of this, the skinchanger couldn't help but sigh heavily, if you want to blame, blame that damn Zhang Yueran for not being honest!
And, the other party's terrible means of neutralizing any ability!
This is why his true colors are exposed, and only now that he is injured, and he can't use any ability.
It seems that his store in the black market will be closed in a short time.
I also have to deal with everything as soon as possible, and hide in the shadows for a while.
The processing bureau is terrible, but the enigmatic organization is even more terrifying.
Because you don't know where there will be a nail that the tissue has buried in advance, and it's the kind with the nail head facing up, piercing the foot!
Thinking of this, the leather changer couldn't help but look through the rearview mirror in the car and aim at the person in the back seat.
He had some persecution paranoia, could the driver and passengers in this car also be people in the organization?
No way?
The interior of the car was relatively dim, and only the passenger in the back seat could be faintly seen wearing a sports cap, which was a famous man.
As a runaway, the skinchanger has good eyesight, and he also discovers some other details.
For example, the passenger in the back seat kept staring at him, with a smile on his face, but other than that, nothing else was special.
His gaze moved from the rearview mirror to the front, where the taxi driver's service certificate was posted.
The photo of the driver on the certificate is not the same person as the driver who is driving now.
But it's normal to think about it, after all, there are many taxis that will have two drivers at the same time, one for the morning shift and one for the evening shift, and the two will work in shifts.
The middle-aged driver found that the passenger in the passenger seat was looking at the qualification certificate pasted, and immediately smiled: "Oh, it's too difficult to make money now, my buddy and I take turns driving, and we can't make any money at all." ”
"You see, it's so late, and I still have to go to such a far place to solicit customers, it's really not easy."
"By the way, you know that? I heard that there are often some strange things around here recently, and no one dares to go here at night, not so much that you two are lucky, but that I am lucky, hahaha. ”
The driver may have an occupational disease, even if no one pays attention to him, he can still talk to himself, and laugh from time to time.
Although there is some disobedience and deliberateness, it does not make people feel that there is any obvious eccentricity.
"Hahahaha, I really don't know, where did you all come out of such a dark place."
When the driver finished saying this, the leather changer saw through the rearview mirror, intentionally or unintentionally, that the passenger in the back seat moved his position slightly.
Although the interior of the car was very dim, and the only light was only the occasional light reflection from the outside headlights, he could still see clearly, and the passenger in the back seat raised his right hand slightly.
It's like holding something, and it's slowly moving up.
Faintly, with a cold light.
The leather changer, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly laughed, laughing loudly.
This laughter made the passenger in the back seat slowly raise his hand upwards and stopped, and also made the driver, who had been talking to himself, suddenly shut up.
The middle-aged driver smiled and looked at the person in the passenger seat slightly: "What's the matter, buddy?" Do you think of anything happy? ”
The skinchanger glanced at his slender and sharp nails and whispered, "Master." ”
"What's wrong?"
The driver turned his head to look at the people around him while looking at the road.
"You said we were lucky, didn't you?"
"Huh? yes, I can pull two passengers at once, you can get a car, and everyone helps each other, hahaha. ”
While the middle-aged driver laughed, he kept staring at each other.
The leather changer coughed lightly, and Zhang Yueran's shoulder fall earlier made his internal injuries quite serious.
But he still forcibly endured the pain and said, "But in my opinion, master, your luck is really bad. ”
The eyes of the leather changer and the eyes of the middle-aged driver met each other.
In each other's eyes, there is an unknown meaning in it.
The smile on the face of the middle-aged driver faded little by little, becoming a little unpredictable.
The passenger in the back seat stared at the every move of the two people in front of him, his expression became more and more nervous, and he didn't know whether to lift it for a while, or continue to hold it.
The leather changer sat in the passenger seat, motionless, still staring directly at the driver holding the steering wheel.
The driver glanced at the road ahead and slowly turned his head, his face no longer smiling, replaced by scarlet bloodshot eyes.
The leather changer's right hand, aimed at the opponent's neck, suddenly moved.
Straight, stabbed down.
The car, which was originally on a straight road, suddenly began to twist left and right like a snake, and from time to time there was a screeching sound of tires rubbing against the ground.
It's just that this sound is muffled by the music of the car radio at this time.
"The road of life, a dream is like a long road~ The wind and frost on the road are dry~"
A long tune that wraps around the car.
The middle-aged driver, holding his neck with his hands, was constantly twitching.
The passenger in the back seat was also grabbed by the hair by the leather changer, and his sharp nails were quickly shuttling around his body.
The leather changer had already risen from his seat, his body slightly lowered, and his right hand stabbed at the driver's seat and then into the back seat.
The inside of the car was dim, but there was faint blood splattering.
It's red, like the taillights on the butt of a car that are constantly twisting and turning.
It's so eye-catching, so dazzling.
Finally, the car deviated from the road and crashed into the trunk of a large tree on the side of the road, forcing it to stop.
The leather changer kicked the door and stumbled out of the car, flicking his right hand as he went, as if he were throwing water.
Whether it was Zhang Yueran or the mysterious organization, it made him scared and annoyed.
But now, the mood is a little more relaxed.
In fact, no matter what the identity of the middle-aged driver and the passenger in the back seat is, whether it is good or bad, it doesn't matter to the leather changer.
These two men had seen him for what he really was, and he would never allow them to see the rising sun in a few hours.
Holding the hot car, the leather changer slowly moved to the trunk and opened the lid directly.
Inside, there was a corpse lying there, and the unwilling expression was the photo of the real driver in the service qualification certificate posted on the taxi.
"Huh."
The skinchanger sneered and closed the lid again.
His current ability is temporarily sealed and unusable, and it is estimated that he will have to wait until dawn to recover a little.
So the leather bag in the trunk is not available for the time being.
Just as he continued to walk on the right side of the road with regret, he suddenly heard a roaring sound from above.
When I looked up, it was a plane departing from the dome.
"Oh, this is near Shencheng Jiangdong Airport."
In the heart of the skinkeeper, he already has a place to go.
