Chapter Seventy-Four: Taxi
That night, I didn't have any taste for a delicious hot pot, and I kept thinking about it. But fortunately, Mengyue is happy, and that's enough.
I had two beers during the meal, so I couldn't drive anymore. After leaving the car at the hot pot restaurant, I had to take a taxi to take her back to the dormitory. When I sent Meng Yue back, it was already more than ten o'clock at night, but my head was still full of the "little boy" in Meng Yue's mouth.
Obviously, Mengyue won't lie to me, she was already timid and afraid of these things, and of course she wouldn't use these things to scare me. I did feel a little uncomfortable in the room, but I really didn't see anything at the time. My head is messy, and I have a slight headache due to the stimulation of alcohol.
"Little brother, I don't look good at your face, are you okay?"
I waved my hand and smiled, "It's okay, just go back and get some sleep." ”
This ordinary person drinks with a red face and a thick neck, while no matter how much I drink, my face is pale and pale, and this ordinary person really looks like I have some serious illness.
I looked at the familiar street scene in front of me and said with a smile, "Master, don't go home so late, are you going to work overtime and drive a night train?" ”
The old master shook his head and said, "No, no, I'll go back after sending you off, I can't stay up all night when I'm old." ”
"You look like you're only in your fifties, how can you say you're old."
"I'm all loess buried up to my waist now, and I'm relieved to pull my two sons up."
The master is very talkative and humorous, so he is not bored along the way. As we drove through an intersection, I suddenly saw a little girl standing on the side of the road with an umbrella waving to us.
Seeing this, the old master turned his head to me and asked, "It seems that this kid is going to take a taxi, and it's not safe outside at such a late hour, if you don't mind, I'll take this kid a little bit." ”
I nodded, thinking that I was going to be home soon, and that it was really dangerous for the kid to stand alone on the side of the road and take a taxi. The old master drove the car to the side of the road, rolled down the window and said with a smile, "Do you want to take a taxi?" ”
The little girl is very cute, wearing a pink princess dress, and the little goose egg face is particularly good-looking.
The little girl nodded vigorously and said in a low voice, "Uncle, I'm going to Ping'an Street." ”
"Yo, this Ping'an Street is not a good way...... What about your parents? ”
The little girl shook her head and said, "Mother is far away, and my father asked me to take a taxi to find him, and he is on Ping'an Street." ”
The little girl said, and the old master couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and then turned his head and asked, "Ping'an Street is a little bit away from you, if you are not in a hurry, I will take this little girl with me, and I will ask you less for the car money." ”
I could see that this master was very kind, and I didn't say anything more because I wasn't in a hurry to go home.
The girl put away her umbrella, put it at her feet, and climbed into the car. The girl obediently sat in the passenger seat, and looked ahead blankly without speaking.
However, this master seems to be a little diligent, after all, he is old and has a natural protective psychology for children. Along the way, he asked for warmth and gave the child a small mint.
The little girl showed the way, and we soon came to the Ping'an Street. This Ping'an Street is a newly repaired road in our urban area, so this is also the first time to visit. The car kept moving forward, and then turned into a small alley with no lights.
While staring intently ahead, the master asked, "Where is your father?" ”
The girl pointed to an old-fashioned building in front of her and said, "Uncle, I'm afraid of the dark, can you send me in?" ”
The old master nodded and said with a smile, "Okay." ”
At that time, the old master stopped the car, and then took the girl out of the car. I sat in the car and watched the old man holding the little girl's hand, and I felt a warmth in my heart. I have to say that there are still many good people in this world.
The alley was deep and dark, and I sat in the car and watched the old and the young walk into the night. I looked at the time, it was already eleven o'clock at night, and I thought that I would go back and hurry up and get some sleep, I was almost exhausted to death these days.
And just as I was leaning against the window and preparing to take a nap, I suddenly noticed that the red umbrella that the little girl was carrying had fallen on the passenger seat. The red umbrella looks particularly delicate, and the patterns on it look like they were embroidered with a needle and thread. I thought that the little girl must have cherished this umbrella very much, and the driver had not yet returned home, so I picked up the umbrella and jumped into the car.
As soon as I got out of the car, a cold wind blew in my face. At this time, it is almost late autumn, and the weather is a little cold at night.
I tightened my clothes, took the red umbrella and walked into the dark alley. Actually, the alley is not very long, but at the end of the alley is a ninety-degree straight, but this bend is not visible from the outside.
As soon as I turned in, I was confronted by a large tree, and behind it was a dilapidated garbage can. From the outside, it looks like there is only one building, but when you turn inside, you will find that it is a very large courtyard.
And in that courtyard there were seven or eight rows of very narrow and very small alleys, and I was a little dazed by so many alleys in front of me, and I didn't know where to go. After thinking about it, instead of missing it, it would be better for me to wait here and wait for the old master to come out. But I stood under the big tree and waited left and right, but I couldn't wait for the old master, and it was already late at night, so I was a little anxious.
Standing in front of those alleys and looking inside, I seemed to see a figure flickering in the second alley. I thought that this should be the master, but I still had a trace of anticipation in my heart.
Then I walked into the alley with my umbrella in my hand, but when I walked in, I found that there was no one in the alley. Not only is there no human figure, but there is not even a light in this alley, and it looks like it has been uninhabited for a long time.
And just as I was about to turn away, I suddenly heard a "squeak" sound in my ears. The sound was like the sound of iron metal rubbing, and I slowly looked back at the sound, only to suddenly see a metal wheelchair appear in front of me.
In an instant, I felt a chill spread through the soles of my feet. And just as I was staring blankly at the wheelchair that suddenly appeared, I suddenly heard a scream from the old driver.
"Ah...... Hell ......"
The scream woke me up instantly, and I shivered before running frantically towards the back.
