Chapter 51: Bayberry and the Ashtray
People react differently to enormous external pressures.
Some people broke down and wailed, bent their knees and begged for mercy, some people died and broke the net to make a last fight, and some people collapsed in front of Mount Tai but their faces did not change...... And now Bai Qing, she feels like a prey trapped in a spider's web, she knows that she needs to escape immediately, but once she starts to struggle, she will inevitably touch the spider silk under her, thus alarming the hunter on the other side of the spider silk.
And the most critical problem is that she doesn't know who to trust and who else to trust.
A waiter at a ramen shop? Or a driver in the cab of a taxi?
Which side of the people are they, and are they capable enough to save her?
Bai Qing glanced at Zhang Heng beside him.
The latter smiled at her, and after coming out of the ramen shop, the two returned to the previous mode of not leaving an inch, and this time Zhang Heng did not let Bai Qing leave his field of vision for half a step.
"Don't worry, it'll be there soon."
"Hmm."
Bai Qing reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth in response, she could feel the hunters crawling along the spider silk, which also made her feel more and more uneasy, Bai Qing didn't know how long her disguise could last.
The taxi driver was complaining about the city traffic and rising housing prices, but his voice seemed so far away in Bai Qing's ears, like a bubble coming out of the water, although Bai Qing knew that he should be more intimate with Zhang Heng at this time, and try to paralyze the other party's vigilance.
But she really couldn't do such an action, her nerves had almost collapsed to the limit, and just a short look at the other party would make her feel terrified.
Bai Qing tilted his head slightly and looked out of the car window.
Only watching the endless stream of vehicles and crowds can make her mood a little more stable.
Because of a few red lights on the way, the rental arrived at its destination a little later than expected.
The driver parked on the side of the road, Bai Qing noticed that Zhang Heng did not scan the code with his mobile phone, but handed over a twenty yuan note, and said, "No need to look for it." ”
Then he opened the car door and went down first.
Bai Qing followed behind him, and as soon as he got out of the car, he saw the Internet café that Zhang Heng said.
Its appearance looks a little old, only half of the four words "bar" are left on the billboard Ronghua Internet Café outside, and there is still a group of teenagers and girls who look suspicious squatting on the cement steps at the door.
It should be about the same age as Bai Qing, but he is not in school, and the boy inside is still smoking, and his eyes light up when he sees Bai Qing.
One of them raised his head and said, "What are you going to play, my brother will take you." ”
But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure blocking his vision and warned, "She's my girlfriend." ”
Zhang Heng took Bai Qing's hand again as he spoke, and the young man also threw away the cigarette butt in his hand when he saw this, stood up and wanted to say something, but then a voice came from the Internet café, "Don't make trouble, Xiaofei!" Otherwise, you and your people won't want to play games for free with me. ”
The young man named Xiaofei squatted down again when he heard this.
Zhang Heng then took Bai Qing to the Internet café, the space on the first floor is not large, there are only thirty machines in total, probably because it is still in the morning, there are only seven or eight players in it.
The boss, that is, Zhang Heng's friend, is a fat man who weighs more than two hundred pounds, sitting in front of the cashier, and also part-time in the role of the cashier's little girl, seeing Zhang Heng and Bai Qing walking in, he nodded to the two, "The private room is ready for you, VIP No. 3." ”
"Thank you." Zhang Heng nodded, and was about to go upstairs, when he suddenly heard Bai Qing say, "When I came in just now, I saw that there seemed to be bayberry sellers on the side of the road, I want to eat bayberry, is it okay?" ”
Zhang Heng and the fat boss glanced at each other, and the latter said, "I have watermelons and bananas here." ”
"It's okay, I'll just go out and buy it." Zhang Heng said, probably because he had arrived at the Internet café and felt that Bai Qing couldn't run away, Zhang Heng's spirit was also a lot more relaxed, and he was no longer as indistinguishable as before, and said to Bai Qing, "You go up first, I'll come to you later." ”
"Hmm." Pak Tsing Road.
"Just make this your home, feel free." The fat boss also added.
Zhang Heng is like a gentle boyfriend, and he has been watching Bai Qing go up to the second floor before leaving the Internet café.
Bai Qing stood in the corridor on the second floor, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, and quickly took a look at the surrounding environment, but unfortunately she didn't find the possibility of escaping, and she also saw the camera on the other side of the corridor, so she didn't dare to stay longer, and walked into VIP Room 3 with her head down.
Unlike the dirty corridor outside, the private room is nicely furnished, with two computer bays and a small bed for those who spend the night sleeping, but there are some suspicious stains on the sheets.
Bai Qing looked around, and finally could only pick up the glass ashtray on the computer desk, hold it in his hand, and then stand by the door, put his body against the wall, and waited for Zhang Heng to come up after buying bayberry.
It was a long time for her.
And to be honest, Bai Qing doesn't know how to escape from the Internet café even if he can stun Zhang Heng, the fat boss below is obviously also from those things, or she can try to ask for help from the bad gang outside the door? It's just that Bai Qing doesn't know what he can impress those people.
The minutes just ticked by.
Finally, there was another sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door, each of which seemed to be stepping on Bai Qing's heart.
At this point, she could only turn her heart sideways, close her eyes, and raise the ashtray in her hand.
The man outside the door knocked twice.
Seeing that there was no response in the house, he waited for a while and directly reached out and pushed the door open.
Bai Qing, who was waiting on the other side, also gritted her teeth and smashed the ashtray in her hand at this time, but her hand was grabbed by someone only a fist away.
Then the man walked straight into the house and closed the door.
The difference in strength between the two is too huge, no matter how Bai Qing struggles, she can't escape the control of the other side, and she just wanted to open her mouth to scream, but Zhang Heng covered her mouth.
"It's me."
Bai Qing opened her eyes and looked at the face that made her feel terrified, and her body trembled even more.
"Ask me that question." Zhang Heng said helplessly.
After confirming Bai Qing's nod, Zhang Heng let go of his hand a little.
"You...... Do you like me? Bai Qing said this sentence almost tremblingly, and his upper and lower teeth kept fighting.
"I'm sorry, I'm from another world." Zhang Heng replied, and put down his hand after speaking.
However, Bai Qing was probably frightened, although he didn't use the ashtray to open someone's scoop again, but his eyes were also full of distrust when he looked at Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng pointed to the pocket in front of Bai Qing's shirt that he would not use, and the latter reached into it and found a miniature tracker the size of a coin.
